KERMIT, TEXAS
Any car can have a blowout in a tire.
But you wouldn’t junk the car. You’d
just fix the tire—or replace it.
That’s very much like a situation that
exists in the retailing of beer. Beer retail-
ing has its “flat tires,” too—retailers
who disobey the law or who permit un-
savory conditions.
To protect your right to drink good
beer, we of the beer industry want to
eliminate the few “flat tire” retailers.
Here’s another reason: Right here in
Texas, beer has provided employment
for 31,165 persons, supports an annual
payroll of $22,076,182 and paid $2,273,-
968.64 in state taxes last,year.
The state, too, has an important stake
in the beer industry’s purchases—for
material, equipment and services—from
more than 100 other industries.
Those benefits are worth preserving.
You can help us preserve them by patron-
izing only the reputable and legal places
where beer is sold and by reporting any
law violations you may observe, to the
duly constituted authorities.

J- the knave of hearts who stole
the queen’s tarts on a summer
day, would have left the tarts and
made off with this delicious fruit-
filled apricot crescent if it had
also been on the table. However,
there would have been a different
ending to the story, because he
would have never returned this
delightfully fruity bread. Instead,
it would have been safely stowed
away beneath his knavish heart.
The foundation for this quick
coffee cake is a rich scone dough
which is unsurpassed for its
kitchen simplicity and goodness.
Economical it is, too, and when
made with enriched flour this
coffee cake brings added vitamin
values to the table.
Any fruit filling for this cres-
cent is equally as good as the
apricots and raisins used to fill
this scone crescent. During apple
days, when this universally liked
fruit is so plentiful and so reason-
able in price, finely chopped apples
flavored with a dash of cinnamon
and nutmeg make an ideal filling.
Tender, plump prunes-are also
good and as always, nutritious
and flavorful.
For breakfast, luncheon or
dinner, not to mention afternoon
coffee or tea, family and friends
will vote this menu quickie a con-
tribution to good eating.

It is safe to say that in no other
cooking school will there be more
interesting plans and demonstra-
tions carried out in such a manner
as to make it easier for housewives
-*to find more time for other acti-

range more delightful, attractive
and novel dishes and menus.
Coffee, the symbol of real de-
mocracy, good fellowship and menu-
completion, will come in for many
interesting and new demonstrations.
Coffee used as the liquid for hard
sauces gives a new flavor which
blends deliciously with baked or
steamed fruit pudding. Heat the cof-

f HALLOWE’EN RECIPES
The cross - eyed witch, a critter
mean
Ts never seen ’till Hallowe’en;
At which time she will surely be
Astride her pet broom, Whiskery;
And with her will be spooks galore
You’d better lock and bolt your
doior!
I think I’ll stay in bed that night
And pull the covers ’round me
tight!
Frosty nights . . .pumpkins on the
vine . . . cider . . . plump doughnuts
. . . waving cornstalks . . . and
lighted jack-o’-lanterns — all these
symbolize Hallowe’en, a holiday eag-
erly awaited by young and old alike
the country over.
And, strange as it seems, Hal-
lowe’en is not the original name of
this mysterious holiday, nor it it
strictly American in origin. It had
its beginning in Britain in the an-
cient days of superstition when at
the end of summer the Celtic
Druids made offerings to their pag-
an gads at a festival khown as Sam-
hain. And, although much of the
superstition has faded, pranks and
games of mystery still make All
Hallaw’s Eve, or the Eve of All
Saints, a day of days!
Of course food plays an import-
ant part in the festivities, and right-
ly so. It wouldn’t be Hallowe’en
‘without bobbing for apples, drink-
ing tall glasses of ice-cold cider and
munching on lucious sugared dough-
nuts. To help you with Hallowe’en
refreshments, here are a few sug-
gestions:

of course. And Mystery Doughnuts,

Use of the famous Admiration Cof-
fee, blended and roasted in the
Southwest for Southwestern appe-
tites, will be one of the outstand-
ing features of the cooking school.
This finer coffee, of a superior
quality and richer flavor, has long
since established itself as the most
popular brand in the southwest. And
this unimpeachable reputation has
extended to other localities and in-
to the Old South, where coffee
flavors are recognized and appre-
ciated from a background of many
generations.
NOW A TRADITION
In the Cooking School one will
learn of the many delightful ways
in which Admiration Coffee may be
prepared ’ and served. It will be
clearly demonstrated as to how this
finer coffee will give any new life
and new enjoyment. It was once an
ambition of the Duncan Coffee
Company, importers and roasters of
Admiration Coffee, to fashion the
flavor and quality to actually “fit”
the Southwestern appetites. Now it
I has become a tradition, for Ad-
miration Coffee graces the tables of
more people in the Southwest than
any other brand. Taste-wise people
in the Southwest know finer coffee
and the demonstrations of this fam-
ous coffee in the cooking school will
prove the uncanny choice of these
exacting coffee drinkers.
It is suggested that those who
attend the cooking school be sure
to bring a pencil and notebook to
record the many interesting
methods and surprising new ways to
prepare and serve Admiration Cof-
fee. Many people fail to do this and,
after the school is over, find it dif-
1 ficult to remember certain ways of
! preparing or serving coffee with
other foods. It is a fact that Ad-
• miration Coffee makes good foods
. taste still better and you’ll want to
r record these many new coffee
. recipes.
Milk is regarded as the almost
perfect food because it contains vir-
tually all the elements the human
body requires — vitamins, minerals
proteins, sugars, fat.

“PUNKIN-FACE” SANDWICHES
1 package fast granular yeast
1 cup lukewarm water
1 teaspoon sugar
1 cup milk (or water) scalded and
cooled
2 teaspoons salt
4 tablespoons sugar
About 6 cups sifted flour
6 tablespoons melted shortening
Pour the granular yeast into the
cup lukewarm water, add 1 teaspoon
sugar, stir and let stand 5 minutes.
Pour the cup of scalded milk or
water into mixing bowl, add salt and
remaining sugar and let cool. When
milk is lukewarm add softened yeast
and 3 cups of flour all at one time.
Beat until smooth. Next, add melted
(not hot) shortening and enough
more flour to handle. Knead into
a smooth, medium soft dough, using
just enough flour to avoid sticki-
ness. Place in greased bowl and let
rise until double in bulk. Divide in-
to foui4 portions. Cover and let rise
10 minutes. Shape into round
loaves. Place in well greased No. 2
and one-half size cans, filling
about half full. Let rise until
doubled. Bake about 15 minutes at
400 degrees F., then lower tempera-
ture to 350 degrees F. and continue
baking about 30 minutes longer.
Cool breads thoroughly or overnight.
Slice quite thin. In one-half of the
circles cut our eyes, nose and
mouth with pointed knife. Spread
white solid circles generously with
Date Paste, then top with “face”
| sliced, letting the filling bulge
through features of white face.
