Cxacfeje/v ) prepared by Dady Democrat—Betty Crock-r Home Service Department. OPEN HOUSE DAINTIES ... I often think of May as *<Opt-n House" month. It’s the time when mend* and relatives are inviting friends of the June bride for tronsaeau teas — or shower teas — or just “to meet the bride.” School tacultii-s and classes are holding open house for seniors or alumni. But sugar rationing may seem to some like an obstacle in th® way of this pleasant hospitality. However, like everything else there is a way. And in the midst of ear present “all-oub-for-vlctory” work, ft seems to me more important than ever that we do pause now and then for this kind of sociability. So here are a few sugarless dainties to serve with the friendly cup of tea or coffee or cocoa or lemonade (sweetened with honey or syrup). TEA DAINTIES i cope SIFTED all purpose S cup milk fiour 20 marshmallows 1 tsp. salt *4 cop stoned dates 4 tap. baking powder % cup chopped wakiata 4 tbsp, shortening Preheat your oven to tSO” F. (very hot) anil assemble your ingredients and Utensils. Grease small muffin pans lightly. Sift tbe flour once before measuring, then measure and put into sifter. Add salt and baking powder and sift into your mixing bowk Cut in the shortening with a pastry blender or two knives working scissors fashion. The mixture should be of the consistency of “meal. Add milk to make a r.oft dough. Plar-e a tcaspoonful of this dough in a lightly greased muffin cup. Then place a marshmallow on top, then a stoned date, then a few walnut meats and lastly nnotber •.poottful of dough. Repeat until twenty muffin cups have been filled. Bake about 15 to 20 minutes in your hot oven. In an English home such tea dainties as these would h® served "old. But hero in the United States we like them warm from the oven. PHILADELPHIA TEA CAKES ’ a> Biscuit Dough (such as wiod for Tea Daintiea) 1 egg Jam ar Jelly Confectioners’ Sugar Add the beaten egg to the milk nnd proceed as for Tea Dainties using about % cun of the egg and milk mixture in the dough — and reserving the rest for brushing the tops of th® tea cakes. Roll dough out about H inch thick on a cloth covered board with flour rubbed into the cloth to keep the dough from sticking. Cut 12 pieces with a small plain round cutter — then cut Vi more with the same-sized cutter having a hole in the center. Brush each plain round with the milk and egg mixture. Place doughnut-shaped rounds on top of the plain rounds. Sprinkle the tops with confectioners’ sugar. Very little is needed. Bake about 15 minutes in a hot oven, 450’ F. It’s not necessary to grease your baking pan. Remove from baking sheet and place a teaspoonful of Jam or jelly in the center hole. —— i is C'vpyrlfht J 912 hf IkHT Cf' kar, Ine —1 If you have any specific cooking problems, send a letter requesting Information to Betty Crocker in care of this newspaper.

joctcd what French sources describcs| as United State* demand* for tank- . < and merchant .-hljis berths in th>- Frenc-h West Indies but has agreed to immobilize th ec warships at Martinique, it was learned today. Laval dispatched a note to secretary of state Cordell Hull yesterday. agreeing "in principle” to the negotoiation of a new stilus for the French Mauds through "normal diplomatic channels.” It alleged, however, that by asking France to surrender mercban* shipping, the United States was requesting it to break its armistice phvL'es io Germany that shipping would not !»• transferred to cneiuie* of the Axis. It said the thi' ■ warships at Martinique -the ain raft '•ai rier H -aru.

Shortage Os Labor Forces Deferments Skilled War Workers Are Being Deferred Washington, May 14.— (UP) — Fast-growing labor shortages are forcing at least temporary deferment* from military service of virtually all aklllnd war workers, it was diiK.-losed today. ’’Th® question no longer 1* whether a man can be replaced.” on® man-power authority said. "It’s entirely a matter of Whether he’s performing an essential job in an expanding war industry.” It present measure# to prevent drafting of badly-needed skilled workers are unsucceseful. he said. It may be necessary for the United States, like Britain, to order blanket greup deferments of such work ers. Blanket deferments would re- 1 quire new regulation, since the selective service a< t epecificaHy prohibits them. Draft headquarters now Is attempting to achieve the same result through directives to local boards urging them to "consld r carefully” the cases of ■ registrant® with critical skills. Two directives earlier tbh month bad returned to power by <:x-press ed willingness to negotiato one through "the usual channels” — that i.« directly between Vichy and the United States.

What about I 1 Oip W LOW PRICES : •, . I f: now that everybody is talking about | CEILING PRICES? H ■ 1 M Nlil HI JU • Now, and after May 1 Sth (when ceiling prices become effective), «H N ACrP Super Markets and A&P Food Stores will continue to give you real low prices on fine foods every day, just as they have been doinf. • The new "ceiling price" regulation will not alter in any way AflrP'a low price policy. This means that every day at A&P you will continue to get the best foods the markets afford at our lowest possible prices. i • And here is another important fact to remember. FOOD PRICES WILL NOT BE IDENTICAL IN ALL FOOD STORES on and after May 18th. ! * Prices will continue to differ in food stores on the same articles —just as they have heretofore. OUR CUSTOMERS SAVE MONEY A&P, during the last eight years, has made big reductioos in its operating costs. These savings have been passed along to our customers, so that today they have 9c more of every food dollar to spend than they did in 1933. It is A&P's policy to continue to conduct its business as ocononucnfiy as possible, thus to give you the utmost for every food dollar you spend at A&P Stores. t MIF SELF-SERVICE % THE GREAT ATLANTIC & PACIFIC TEA COMPANY
