P
SPHERES a wrong way to conk
vegetables and spell their flavor,
and a right way to prepare them so
they are distinctive and delicious.
Then, everyone relishes a vitamin-
laden vegetable plate.
A comely young widow of 22 when
she married James Madison, Dolly
Madison proved to be one of the most
charming hostesses in the history of
Washington society. She was only
29 when she became “first lady dur-

had a large family—and they all
were regutar bathers. His many
trips to the cellar to light the water
heater, spurred him to invent a
thermostat to turn the gas on and otf
automatically. Now millions of
Americans enjoy the comfort of ever-
ready hot water from automatic gas
water heaters.

By Mrs. A. O. Lilley.
Best friend to vegetables Is the
modern gas range with controlled
simmering temperature Instantly
available in each top burner to per-
mit gentle cooking In a small quan-
tity of water—the amount based on
the type and size of each vegetable.
When a cover is used, less water
Is needed. Simmering cooks vege-
tables properly and Just as quickly
as rapid boiling in a lot of water at
a high temperature. And the valu-
able food elements are not dissolved
out and lost.
Several vegetables may be cooked
at one time In an economy cooker
over one top buftier, or In triplicate
pans over one or two burners—
without thought and attention, for
the simmering temperature pre-
vents excessive evaporation of tbs
liquid in the pans.
Many vegetables taste best served
simply with salt, pepper and drawn
butter; Hollandalse sauce Is nice
with cauliflower and broccoli. Beets
are more piquant in a vegetable
plate If re-heated with a little sugar,
vinegar and butter.

United Gas Service Is Progressive
“How it* business?”
This question comes up a tlozen times a tlay. Every-
body wants to know!
The fact that your town enjoys dependable United
Gas Service has an important hearing on the condition
of your business. The name “United Gas” stands for
a considerable loeal payroll, a substantial tax hill
promptly paid each year, a permanent investment in
equipment and facilities—and a fuel service to home
and business that represents the last word in modernity.
These things mean civic pride, a chance for future
industrial growth, happier, more prosperous citizenry.
United Gas Service is progressive!
UNITED GAS
Mr. Fain has promised his fuil
support in raising the load limit
which is one of JJie greatest
handicaps to East Texas, to
Lumbermen, and Mr. Fain
pointed out that the truck dri-
vers pay could be increased if
the load was increased.
He believes that medicine and
dental aid should be given to
underpriviledged children of the
state of Texas, and Social se-
curity for the old age.
Mr. Fain will serve the
people of Polk County, East
Texas and the State of Texas.
The people of Polk County
have the opportunity to elect a
County man who has this
county and his county friends
at heart, who has been unselfish
in all of his dealings with the
public. Who has taken great
pride in county and state de-
velopments.
If elected to serve as your
Senator, he will serve you faith-
fully.
