Book New Airport Costs Order Arrives County $8,500 The first shipment of books ordered by the juniors and seniors of Vernonia high school from the high school book league has arriv ed and has been distributed ac cording to Mrs. Sam Hearing, Jr., instructor. Apparently because of the paper shortage the price of the books has been raised, which now makes them cost thirty-five cents, a rise of five cents over last year. By ordering these books at this low cost the students may build up their personal library, very quickly and with little cost.

Frits Hausler (St. Helens Sentinel Mist) Finishing touches on the airport near Scappoose will be put on within the next couple of weeks by county crews which will cut timber and brush at both ends of the mile-long runway, Judge Ray Tarbell said this week. The air port itself was completed some weeks ago, but it is necessary to remove the timber so that planes landing on the field can come in with a lower approach. VERNONIA EAGLE Incidentally, figures compiled by the judge indicated that the $150,000 port cost the county al most an even $8,500. This sum represents the amount expended to purchase land for the site and also includes the estimated cost of removing timber and brush from either end of the field. So far, there has been no indica tion that the port will be taken over by military authorities, as had at first been anticipated. If this does not occur, the port will probably be largely unused until end of the war, since no civilian aviation (with exception of the airlines) is permitted on this side of the Cascades. The field, how ever, is all ready for use and could serve as an emergency spot for military aircraft if the need arose. MAILING EXPLAINED According to Emil Messing, postmaster, Christmas packages can be mailed to service men who have been sent overseas since the mailing deadline of October 15 if the official card showing the change of address of the service man is presented at the post of fice. These packages can be mail ed between now and the 10 th of December.

And, to tell the truth, I was amazed at the number of readers— both young and old —who wrote me afterward. Almost everyone was quick to point out that the younger generation not only likes to pack lunches, but also gets real satisfac tion from various kinds of practical cooking. More than one reader added this very timely thought: nowadays, when so many mothers are busy with war work, it’s a real family help when the children take an active part in making the kitchen run smoothly. It gives them the feeling of “doing something” important, too. I’ve found through my own experi ence that youngsters make credit able cooks provided they’re not hurried and provided they start out on things they really like. And these are a “natural“ for girls to start out on: LAST MONTH, BONNIE DEI COOKIES 2 cups enriched flour */2 tsp. soda 1 tsp. baking powder ’/z tsp. salt 2 cups quick oats 1 cup seedless raisins 1 cup coarsely chopped n meats 34 cup shortening 1 cup brown sugar 2 eggs Vs cup milk Sift flour, measure and sift with dry ingredients; add oats, raisins and nutmeats. Cream shortening with sugar; add well-beaten eggs and milk; combine with flour mixture. Drop by teaspoonfuls on greased cookie sheet. Bake in moderate oven (375° F.) 12 to 15 min. Makes 6 dozen. One of the best things for boys to try their kitchen skill on is waffles and pancakes —but warn them not to “peek” while baking waffles, and not to turn pancakes until they are fairly full of bubble holes on top. 6 B grade Short Ribs secause he alhmvs takes his COFFEE ‘STAAIGHT’ TO GET THE FULL FLATOA Heath's Service Station Let the Children Cook Director Safeway Homemaiert' Bureau
