Well, Ves took a notion to get married last week so he sneaked over to the train and goes down to Salt Lake without telling anyone around here anything about it. but it leaked out somehow. Course somebody found out when he was expecting to come back with his bride, who by the way is a sister in -law of Jim Kinnaird, the depot agent, and she was a widow by the name of Mrs. Anna Humane, well-known and liked by everyone around here. Louie Spier and Bill Largent rigged up a grand welcome for him. So when the train pulled in, the men grabbed Ves and the ladies took charge of Mrs. Ves at the depot platform. The blushing groom was hoisted onto a horse, hindside too. and the bride was in Lem Wilson's auto. It seemed like everyone in town was lined up on the sidewalk. The whole layout marched away down by the M E Church, clear around the block and back to Main Street. WHAT COULD BE FAIRER W k than THIS WITH WELCOME FOOD STAMP SHOPPERS Clues On Lunches HELEN CONNER Extension Home Economist. Malheur County SANDWITCHERY Plain or fancy, large or small, dainty or hearty, all-in-one meal or in-between snack, sandwiches are as good looking. g<M>d tasting and appealing as you wish to make them. Youngsters enjoy familiar foods and mild flavor» while adults like novelty and sharper flavor accents. Do remember the basics of good sandwiches: soft butter spread all the way to the outer edges of a variety of bread and rolls to prevent sogginess and give flavor. Once the sandwiches are prepared use moisture-proof plastic wrap or bags to keep sandwiches neat and tidy as well as fresh. Wrap lettuce separately to keep it crisp and add it to the sandwich just before serving. Bread is the basis for all sandwiches. Variety in your choice of breads makes lunches more »citing. Most popular, of course, is white enriched bread, but French bread also offers a welcome change. For variation in flavor and color in loaf breads, one may choose cracked wheat, whole wheat, rye. pumpernickel or such sweet bread loaves as raisin, cinnamon, nut and brown bread. The bread for sand wiches; however, does not have to come in loaf form. Sandwiches can be made from crusty rolls, hamburger buns, hot dog buns, tortillias, English Muffins and baking powder or soda biscuits. Then there are crisp crackers in dozens of kinds. To keep sandwiches interesting try some of these suggestions. The filling can be made ahead and stored covered in the refrigerator. Egg Salad—chop hard- cooked eggs, crisp bacon pieces, and pimento, blend in sour cream and seasonings to taste. Bean and frankfurter— Combine 1/2 cup baked or refried beans and 3 thinly sliced frankfurters, mix well with 2 tablespoons chopped onion and I tablespoon chili sauce. Peanut butter—Mix pea nut butter thoroughly with honey, or crisp bacon bits or applesauce. Cream Cheeee Combine softened cream cheese diced crisp bacon and sliced stuffed olives. Some sandwich fillings and appropriate binders or mois- teners take well to freezing, some do not. Homemakers can make a quantity of sandwiches and freeze them to speed up the daily lunch packing chore. To avoid trial and error when sandwiches are made ahead of time, then frozen until just before serving time, it is well to know which types of fillings to use, which to avoid. Among the kind of fillings that freeze well are cooked egg yolk, cooked or canned chicken, turkey, or fish; cooked or canned meats. Sandwich binders that take well to freezing are fruit juices such as lemon, orange or pineapple, applesauce, chili sauce and dairy sour cream. Fillings and moisteners that do not fare well when frozen are hard cooked egg white (it toughens); raw vegetables (they lose crisp ness); mayonnaise or salad dressing (they separate and soak the bread). Frozen sandwiches can be put into the lunch sack frozen, and they will be thawed and ready to eat by noon. Here are a few other tips that may make your sand wiches more tasty or easier to prepare. When you are making several sandwiches, lay out the slices ready for spreading so that those next to each other in the loaf can be paired together. Season your sandwich fil lings well, remembering that bit more seasoning, rather than less is desircable since the Tilling is going between two slices of bread. When meat is used for Tilling, it may be wiser to use several thin slices rather than a single thick one. This will make better tasting sand wiches. and make them much easier to eat. For speed when cutting sandwiches, stack two or three and cut them all at once with a sharp knife. You'll be amazed how it speeds up the operation NABISCO ‘RACKERS PKG. 1 lb.
