Mrs. Alba Tidwell, Home Domon-
Ijyjstration Agent, furnishes the follow-
X ing recipes for candied and crystal-
lized fruits, which shall be of in-
terest to the housewives of Titus
County:
Candied Fruits
Whole cherries, apricots, peaches
and pears in halves, sliced pineap-
ples, and while figs are often pre-
pared in this way, it is a lengthy
and tedious procedure. It calls for
slow cooking on the installment plan,
and shallow trays for plumping the
fruit are necessary.
First, the fruit to be candied should
be washed, peeled, or pared, if ne-
cessary, cut or diced and dropped in-
.-, to boiling water fer two or three
X minutes. Drain well, cover with ry-
•j* rup made by boiling together one
'f. pound of sugar for each pound of
X! fruit with one cupful of water. Boil

“CAMEO KIRBY” OFFERS
PICTURESQUE ROMANCE
REPLETE WITH MELODIES
“Cameo Kirby,” Fox Movietone ro-
mantic musical drama, will rank as
one of the greatest audible screen
productions of the year.
As screened today at the Titus
Theatre, before an audience which
frequently burst forth with spon-
taneous applause, this great play of ,
the Old South in its musical setting j
easily surpasses the best in this form j
of entertainment previously seen here, t
Murray's voice, perfectly reproduced,
j reveals the delightful qualities which
• made him such a great Broadway
j star before he cast his lot in Holly-
wood.
| “Romance,” as sung by this great
j screen lever, has all the ullurc and
i glamour of a great love song, which
i it is. The work of both of these
1 players in the dramatic 'vnse, also is
i very effective and is a great tribr.’io
j to the directorial genius rf Wing
j Cummings, who staged 1 produc-
! ticn. Cummings may " ell be proud
: of his achievement, as he has far sur-
passed the work he did in “In Old
i Arizona” and “Behind That Curtain,”
; previous the high spots of his di-
rectorial career.
I Stepin Fetchit, as a negro butler, is
shorn of his customary grotesqueries,
but proves even more effective in his
new style comedy role. His'~singing
of “I’m a Peaceful Man” comes very
close to being a classic.
Effective performances also were
contributed by Robert Edeson, Myrna
Loy, Douglas Gilmore, Charles Mor-
ton, John Hyams, and Eugene Jack-
son in supporting roles.

plumps slowly, and the gradual in-

KELVINATOR’S 4-WAY COLD gives you four different
degrees of cold in four different compartments of the
cabinet. These four different degrees are constantly and
automatically maintained. In ordinary electric refriger-
ation it is possible to speed up ice-making—but—to do
this requires lowering the temperature throughout the
entire cabinet. This may result in food-spoilage, through
freezing.
Contrast this with 4-Way Cold which gives you
1— in One Compartment—a 40° to 50° Constant Cold—
just the right temperature, science says, to keep most
foods fresh.
2— in a Second Compartment—a Below-Freezing Cold for
cold storage of meats, game, fish, ice cream, etc.
3— in a Third Compartment—a Third-Degree-of-Cold for
freezing ice and desserts.
4— in a Fourth Compartment—a Very Low Cold for extra-
quick ice and desserts.
All of these degrees of cold are in constant service doing the
work you want done without thought or effort on your part
because-all are automatic.

Fair-slcinncd Dawn, mystery girl,
is about to be burned, alive by the
infuriated black tribe ocupying the
British protectorate in Bast Africa.
.4s the mystic wife of the black
pod Malunghu, she failed to pro•
duec rain. Tom Allen, her sweet-
heart, learning that she is white,
not black, goes to Mombasa to col-
lect proofs. 8hep Keyes, whip man
and bully, after inciting the natives
to burn Dawn, offers to help her
escape, if she will run off to the
jungles with him. Dawn's reputed
mother. Mooda, has been stabbed
by a strange wild man. Dawn's
father. Tom returns with his facts,

“Malunghu don't answer Dawn's
prayers," said Shep,’' because she
am false to him.”
“We all know she Is a false
bride." agreed Hasmall.
"But," spoke Shep with dramatic
triumph, “you don’t know she was
false to him, right here!”
Hasmali’s eyes grew wide with
disbelief. “You have heard what
Shep Keyes has said, Mooda’s
(laughter,” he said to Dawn. “Is
it true? Do you love this white
man?"
Eager eyes were raised to Dawn.
Slowly she nodded her head in

affirmation of Shep'a charges. A
howl of rage and bat* went up
trom the blacks.
"To the Are, to the fire," they
yelled insistently.
Hasmali was frightened by the
girl’3 admission. Her confession,
with the entire tribe as witnesses,
placed upon him a disagreeable
and dangerous task. As high
priest of Mnlunghu, he must pre-
scribe an equal punishment for the
man who had profaned the god's
bride. It meant burning Tom, an
officer of the British army, on the
same pyre with Dawn. It meant
war with the avenging troops of
the king.
‘‘Is it true, white man," he
asked in faltering tones, "what
Bhep Keyes has said? Is it true?”
Unhesltanlly carne tin? answer
which Hasmall feared to hear.
"Yes. It is true that we love each
other. It is true that Dawn is a
white girl. It is also true that
Shep Keyes knew she was white.
This is a result of his jealousy of
»ur love."
Shep set lip a clamor to divert
the natives from the charge that
he had presumed to love Malun-
Shu’s bride. Malunghu is angry."
he cried. "To the sacrifice wit’ de
false bride!
“To the fire,” chorused the na-
tives, “to the fire!”
impressed by the earnestness of
Tom’s words, Duke and Pigeon pro-
ceeded with all possible haste from
the Temple of Malunghu to rouse
the barracks. They arrived breath-
less from haste and excitement and
after alight difficulty managed to
make the sentry understand the im-
portance of that. mission.
When Shep’s self-protective meas-
ures stirred the natives to their
kowling Insistence on the imme-
diate continuance of the execution
ceremonies, Tom resigned himself
to utter defeat. He looked toward
Dawn in farewell, before he turned
his eyes from her forever. He could
watch her die. As he looked
upon her, he observed that she was
struggling to speak through the
gag. that she wished to address
Hasmali.
Tom made himself heard above
the shouts of the natives. “Ask
Dawn!” he cried to Hasmali. “She
will tell the truth. Ask her!”
Anticipating just such an eventu-
ality, Shep renewed his exhorta-
tions. But Hasmali was not to be
drawn into the mob frenzy. He or-
dered the gag removed.
“You have heard what has been
said,” he addressed her, “now say
whether or riot it is true ”
“It is true," said Dawn, the sud-
den quiet of the natives permitting'

knew I was white. It wan he who
told me so when he wanted to take
me away.”
“That Is a lie,” charged Hasmali.
“Shep wouldn’t dare to love the
bride of Malunghu."
"It is the truth,” ciiad Dawn.
"He said he’d save me. He wanted
to take me out of the cavern and
take me to Mombasa with him.”
“Another He.” decreed Hanmali,
to the immenso relief of Shep. “He
would not harm the bride of Ma-
lunghu.”
“No! No!” chanted the natives in
agreement.
Hasmali raised his hand for si-
lence. “Go on with the sacrifice!”
he ordered.
In the brief silence that followed
liis order there whipped through
the crowd an electrifying command.
“Wait!” It was the Maid of Ma-
lunghu who spoke.
So authoritative, so arrecting was
her tono that it preserved the hush
that liasmali’s words had created.
She addressed Hasmali.
"Yo'i say he would not dare to
love) the bride of Malunghu," she
said “He dared to love his Maid!”
“Shep Keyes loved you?” gasped
Hasmall.
“He loved me,” she replied, “until
the charms of Dawn matured, then
she came between us."
“Think well of what you say.
Maid of Malunghu,” counseled Haa-
mali. "if this be true, you, too,
have sinned and you, too, will suf-
fer.”
The Maid’s jealousy, which had
induced her to utter the confession,
dissolved in a torrent of unhappi-
ness. “I loved him and lie has left
me," she sobbed. "I do not want
to live. By Malunghu, I swear it in
true!”
Hasmall was won to the truth of
her words. He motioned to three
stalwart natives to seize Shep be-
fore turning his examination to the
whip man. Shep, well aware that
he was irretrievably lost, could not
resist a final bit of swagger.
“Sure it am true,” he admitted,
his sneering bravado advising the
natives of the contempt, in which
he held them and their religion.
“Dawn am white just liko de Maid
am biack.”
His blasphemy of their god filled
Hasmali with cold anger. “Now
at least we know why Malunghu is
angry.” he said. He ordered Dawn
released. When she was placed on
the earth, Tom, who also lnd been
freed, swept her into his arms.
"My darling, my darling!" he
cried, kissing her repeat! dly.
“Take mo from this horrible
place, my Tom,” she entreated:
“take mo to my white people—away
from Africa.”
As they started toward tlie trail,
they heard Hasmali’s final com-
mand.
"Malunghu must have two lives,"
he said; "first Shep’s, then the
Maid's."
Dawn paused. “We must not let
Ihe Maid die," she protested. “3h»
saved us, my Tom."
"That’s true," admitted Tom. puz-
He was at lose as to what to
zied
do about it. Certainly, in the face
of her confession of sin. the natives
could not be expected to free her.
Shep was beyond saving, already
bound on the burning pyre. Sud-
denly the problem of the Maid’s res-
cue solved itself. The British
troops swarmed into the clearing,,
their rifles leveled for action.
The natives, surprised by thl»
new invasion, fled into the Jungles.
Then, above all the other din, a
peal of thunder rent the night. It
was accompanied by rain drops and
in another minute the parched Jun-
gle was slaked by the steady pour.
