“A child with any kind of a soiv
throat should be seen by the family
physician promptly. If scarlet fever
is present, the treatment recommend-
ed will do much to alleviate discomfort
and reduce the possibility of compli-
cations,” Dr. Cox asserted.
The child with scarlet fever or
scarlatina, a common name for mild
scarlet fever, really is a sick child.
Dr. Cox declared. In fact, he is like-
ly to be far more ill than he appears
to be. To be safe, the child under fif-
teen years of age should remain in
bed during the acute stage of the dis-
ease.

JT KITCHEN FATS TO WORK
I—
Rcndcmi
Straining AB
With fats and oils rationed, America’s housewives have a valuable source
of cooking fats in meat drippings, fat trimmings from uncooked meat, cured perk
rinds, and fat skimmings from soups and stews.
They can be saved and used for baking, frying,'
and seasoning.
Use of these fats is vital to the government’s
fat conservation program. If all cannot be used
in the kitchen, the surplus and waste fat should
be sold to a retail meat dealer as fats are a val-
uable source of glycerin used to manufacture
ammunition. One pound fur-
nishes enough glycerin to fire
four 37-miiiimeter anti-aircraft
shells;
Kitc'’C" fct can be valuable
in the we: effort. Save it!
Use it!
HOW TO RENDER FAT
/. Trim excess fat from all un-
cooked meat and keep in
refrigerator until ready to
render.
2. Chop tine or grind.
3. Render in double boiler.
4. Strain through cloth.
5. Cool to room temperature.
6. Cover tightly and store in
refrigerator. (May be
.tnixed with other rendered
fat or drippings which hove
been strained.)
7. Use for baking, frying, and
seasoning.
TYPICAL RECIPES USING SALVAGED KITCHEN FATS

fat until particles are about size of peas. Add cold water,
little at a time, mixing quickly and evenly through flour

pastry for a two-crust 9-inch pie. Roll the dough to about
one eighth inch in thickness.

2 teaspoons baking rendered fat or
powder drippings

in a hall. Turn on a lightly floured surface and knead gently
for one-half minute. Pat or roll one-half inch thick and cut
with a small biscuit cutter, dipped in flour. Place on baking
sheet and bake in a hot oven (450 I.) for 12 to 15 minutes.

To: Federico Gomez, Defendant,
Greetings:
You are hereby commanded to ap-
pear before the Honorable 81 Judicial
District Court of La Salle County at
the Court House thereof, in Cotulla,
Texas, at or before 10 o’clock A. M.
on the first Monday next after the
) expiration of forty-two days from the
date of the issuance of this citation,

Plaintiff's Petition filed in said Court
on the 11th day of September A. D.
1943, in this cause, numbered 279q on
the docket of said court and styled
Carlota Blanco Gomez, Plaintiff, vs
Federico Gomez, Defendant.
A brief statement of the nature of
i this suit is as follows, to wit:
Plaintiff, Carlota Blanco Gomez,
sues defendant for divorce, alleging
that she has been a bona fide inhabi-
tant of the State of Texas for more
than a yeor prior to the filing of this
petition and has resided in La Salle
County for at least six months im-
mediately prior to the filing of such
suii; that they were married about
September 1. 1938, and continued to
live together until sometime during
1941, since which time they have not
lived together. Plaintiff alleges that
defendant was guilty of excessive and
cruel treatment of such a nature as
to render their further living togeth-
er insupportable, and asks for a di-
vorce on the grounds of cruel treat-
ment. Plaintiff asks for control and
custody of the one child born to this
wedlock, a girl, Elia, about 3 years of
age, and alleges that she is the prop-
er person for such custody, and for
any other relief to which she may
show herself entitled, as is more ful-
ly shown by Plaintiff’s Petition on file
in this suit.
The officer executing this process
shall promptly execute the same ac-
cording to law, and make due return
as the law directs.
