ENTERTAIN WITH SHOWER
Mesdames R. N.York, John Long,
Roy Isgate, Joe W. Williams, Sr. and
Egbert Copeland were hostesses
Thursday evening at Deckard's cafe
for a shower in honor of Miss Rose
Mildred McDonald, whose marriage
to Ensign G. D. Boyd, Jr., was an-
nounced this week.
The ladies were assisted by a
group of young ladies, beautifully at-
tired in evening dresses of pastel
shades. Miss Joann Copeland presid-
ed at the bride's book; Misses Ange-
lien Cobble, Billie Ruth Iisgate and
Louise York served punch to the ar-
riving guests from a bower of dainty
lace, wedding bells and flowers.
Misses Zella Kate Banks and June
Odom at the piano played soft musi-
cal strains as the friends gathered.
Mrs; Copeland gave the greeting of
welcome to the guests, then intro-
duced .Mrs. J. ,M. F. Gill, who read an
original tribute to the honoree, en-
titled "To a Bride." The presentation
of gifts was made by Miss Margaret
York who cleverly urged that the
bride-elect cut her wedding cake then
and there, as the ceremony was to be
out of Rusk and away from her local
friends. The cake-cutting proved a
"fake affair", biit not without full
compensation. It revealed a beauti-
ful collection of gifts for the bride-
to-be—gifts in crystal, china, lace,
linen and silver.
Congratulations and good wishes
followed the honoree's own little
speech of gratitude for her friends.

Two Safe Canning
Methods Explained
Only t\yo methods of home canning
are recommended by the Extension
Service, A. and M. College of Texas,
as being safe, preventing spoilage,
and retaining the maximum amount
of food value, flavor, texture and col-
or.
One method, says Winifred Jones,
Extension specialist in food preser-
vation is to process meats and vege-
tables, except tomatoes and ripe pi-
mientoes, in a pressure cooker. The
other method is the water bath for
fruits, tomatoes, and ripe pimientoes.
She explains that the pressure
cooker offers the safest known meth-

NOTIFICATION OF SALE OF
TMBER
Sealed bids in triplicate will be re-
ceived by the undersigned Directors
on behalf of the Rusk Country Club
until eight o'clock p. m. May 14th,
1943, for all merchantable pine saw
timber eight inches and above at the
butt (12 inches from the ground)
situated upon 26 acres of land, more
or less, a part of the J. T. Cook
League Survey about 2 1-2 miles
south of the Town of Rusk in Cher-
okee County, Texas.
Before bids are submitted, full in-
formation concerning the saw timber,
condition of the sale, and submission
of bids may be obtained from Leo W.
Tosh, Secretary of the Ru3lc Country
Club, at his office in Rusk, Texas.
AI1 bids will be received by the
undersigned, and the right to reject
any and all bids and the right to
waive formalities and technicalities
is reserved. Bids will be opened in the
land meats because it destroys bac-
teria in these foods, including the
most dangerous—the bacillus botuli-
nus. If these bacteria are not de-
stroyed in the' pore stage they may
grow and later produce a toxin or
poison in the food.
"The worst part about this poison
is that you usually cannot smell,
taste or see it, yet one small bite
could cause death or severe illness
she says. The bacillus botulinus is
destroyed by maintaining pressure at
240 to 250 degrees Fahrenheit. In an
oven or water bath the temperature
of the food, inside the jar never goes
higher than 212 degrees, because the
only way to get liquid higher than
212 degrees is to maintain pressure.
Open kettle canning is not recom-
mended by the specilist because re-
search has proved there is a greater
percentage of spoilage and the food
often becomes mushy in texture. It
is best not to can fruit and tomatoes
in a pressure cooker because they
keep easily when processed at 212
degrees Fahrenheit in a water bath.
Further directions on modern can-
ning methods are available from the
county home demonstration agent.
Scientists are not sure where civil-
ization began, but everybody knows
how it may end.
