PEOPLE POWER. Behind your electrical
plug are thousands of people. TP&L
people. People searching for fuels.
Building plants. Stringing transmission
lines. Generating the power you use.
People working around the clock, day-in
and day-out trying to bring you uninter-
rupted electrical service. So when you
turn on a switch or plug in a cord, take
us for granted. We want you to. It's a
compliment to us. It says we’re doing
our job well.

"Childhood knows the hu-
man heart." Edgar Alien Poe
Community involvement is
needed to help prevent
crime in the city of Howe,
said Howe Police Chief Ken
Vickers.
“If something doesn’t look
right, please call the Howe
police,” he stated. No name
has to be given by the per-
son calling if they wish to
remain anonymous.
The police department is
busy patrolling the town, but
they are unable to be in all
places at the same time.
Citizen help is needed to
help the police do the job of
crime prevention.
Vickers said that burglars
from outside Howe will think
twice before coming to Howe
if they know the police and
the citizens are watching for
them.

STONEGROUND CORNMEAL may seem like a
strange ingredient to put in cookies, but Texas
Department of Agriculture food specialists have
found that when it is added to an ordinary cookie
recipe the results are a delightful, nutritious snack.
For additional recipes using cornmeal see the next
edition of the TDA Quarterly.

3/4 C. sugar
2 eggs
1 1/2 C. unbleached white or pastry flour
1 tsp. baking powder

3/4 C. chopped pecans
Mix butter and sugar in a large bowl. Add rest of ingredients; mix

degrees F. for about 12 minutes. Makes about 3 dozen.

“I WANT PIE!”
I was hunched over my tray at my friend Judy’s greasy
spoon .... porking down a hot roast beef sandwich and a
couple of plates of biscuits .... when a 72 pound weakling
with blonde hair and a size 2 shoe came in singing,
“Oh..I Am on a Di - etl A Di - et! A Di - et! Oh...I Am
On A Di - et! Fa. La. La. La. La.....”
My first inclination was to put my foot through her face.
However, since she was with a Macho-type cowboy guy
who was wearing a necklace that said, ‘Hit me. I’m
tough!’ I moved my clothes off the next two stools and
allowed them to sit down instead.
“Will that be all?” my friend Judy grinned.
“I’ll have a little piece of pie.” I whispered, looking at
the plate I’d just licked.
“What?” Judy hollered.
“Pie.” I hissed. “I want pie!”
The little blonde who had just been complaining ’cause
her size 5 blouses were getting tight looked at the cowboy
and giggled.
“Chocolate with meringue?” asked Judy.
I nodded, licking my lips.
“How about a nice big slice of peach cobbler to go with
that?” Judy bellowed.
The cowboy’s mouth dropped open to the floor.
“I’ve just got to lose six pounds!” the blonde whined.
“Just give me a lettuce salad.”
“Hey, Judy!” I screamed. “Remember the time I
ordered the lettuce salad and it had a grasshopper in it?”
Judy laughed until her eyes were wet. “Yeah. I
remember. You ate part of it, didn’t you?”
“Only its left foot.” I said indignantly. “But I’ll never
forget looking down and seeing those hideous green
eyes!”
The little blonde turned white, put her hand over her
mouth and left. And the cowboy went with her.
“Poor little thing!” Judy said. “She looked kind of
sickly.”
“Probably doesn't eat enough.” I replied.
Then Judy sat down on her stool and we polished off the
rest of the cobbler...
