More than half the time it takes to prepare a pie for the oven is spent in getting the crust ready. The busy homemaker can save herself time if she makes a pastry mix and stores it for future use. Here’s my recipe for pastry mix. Try it for pies and see if you don’t save valuable time. Pastry Mix 6 cups sifted, all-purpose flour. 2 teaspoons salt. — — 2 cups vegetable shortening (or a shortening that keeps at room temperature). Sift flour and salt together. Cut in shortening with pastry blender or fork until mix is the conalstency of cornmeal. Keep mix in covered container. Store at room temperature. To measure Pastry Mix, pile lightly into cup and lever'off with spatula. Recipe makes 4 8inch double crusts or 8 single crusts. .» To make a single crust, add 2 tablespoons cold milk to 1 cup pastry mix. tossing with a fork only until . milk is absorbed by flour. I like to turn my crust mix onto a piece of waxed paper, gather up the corners and press from the outside to form a compact ball. Roll pastry %-inch thick, rolling lightly from the center to the outer edge. Bake unfilled shells in hot oven (425° F.) -15 minutes. The largest known asteroid, Ceres is 480 miles in diameter.

Benny's Daughter j | Is Married Tuesday , Benny Daughter On Honolulu Honeymoon ; HOLLYWOOD TTP — Jack Ben- < ny waved his adopted daughter Joan, off on a Honolulu honey- I moon with New York stockbroker | Seth Baker today after giving her away in the most elegant Holly- < wood wedding in years. I Fellow comedian Bob Hope joked that the 19-year-old bride was the first thing Benny ever gave away. Six hundred guests jammed the ceremony and 1,000 fans crowded outside the Beverly Hills Hotel. Benny, himself, had trouble get- 1 ting in. \ The 19-year-old bride was sched- ‘ uled to fly to Hawaii 'With Baker, f 26, for a two-week stay. Benny, the "miser'' of radio and television, put out $50,000 for the 10-minute marriage ceremony and < six-hour champagne reception in 1 the Crystal Room of the hotel for ’ stars, socialites and 75 New York ' guests of the bridegroom. < “It’ll take me two years to pay ■ for this, but it's worth it,” grinned ' the nervous father of the bride. “But, after all, she's our only 1 child. I'm just glad I don’.t have 1 five daughters tike Eddie Cantor.” 1 Barbara Stanwyck, Jimmy Stew- : art, Jane Wyman, Claudette Col- 1 bert, Bob Hope, Eddie Cantor, Alan Eadd and Van Johnson, were among the scores of famous guests in black tie and evening gown. Benny described the wedding as “simple and old fashioned.” Designer Loper said the party was "like Long Island society, not ' a Hollywood type affair at all.” The guests surged around buffet tables laden with 50 pounds of caviar, 25 cases of champagne, beef straganoff, squab and other , delicacies. , It was the first marriage for the bride. Baker, son of New York , industrialist Harry Baker, was divorced from his first wife a year i ago. 4-H Accordion Band Under Consideration i; County Accordion Band Under Study A 4-H accordion band is a dis- - tinct possibility this year, states i county agent L. E. Archbold. Mrs. Delbert Jgprungef of . Berne has - volunteered to lead such a band.

Smith has placed a detainer on Harvey Lee Meyer, 25, Cincinnati hoodlum now serving a 10-20 year sentence for armed robbery at the Mansfield. 0., reformatory, it was learned today. The detainer means that if Meyer is released at any time from the Ohio correctional institution, he will be held for Adams county authorities, where he faces a charge of petit larceny, ns the result of the robbery January 11 of 89-year old Harve Risley of Berne. On that date a group of hoodlums broke into the Risley home and robbed the elderly man. After an investigation by state police and sheriff Robert Shraluka, an affidavit was filed against Meyer. In the meantime, Meyer, who was free from Ohio authorities while probation officers were investigating his past record, was taken Into custody at Cincinnati and at that time he received the 10-20 year indeterminate sentence at Mansfield. Prosecutor Smith notified the Mansfield reformatory authorities . that Meyer was wanted here and a formal detainer was sent that institution this week.
