Oranges Are a Good Buy Now;

‘Here

Are Recipes Using Them

.IN SANSKRIT IT’S “NAGANGA”—in ancient Chinese.it was “Chu” =but whether you go in for historical nomenclature or modern idiom,

today it’s “orange” and by any other name it’s freshly-arrived at local

markets from Florida. And because it is “the season” for oranges they

fit nicely into your food budget. «Squeeze each thin-skinned globe for juice—peel it and serve it in sections in salads, in desserts, even sx stuifings for meats. Here are a trio of recipes from Florida kitchens.

To Avoid Shrinkage

IF YOU HAVE decided to give a parctical Chritsmas present, be sure that it is practical. When you buy flannelette nightgowns or cotton dresses for the children, be sure that they will not, after the first washing, shrink out of size and out

of fit

The safest way to avoid this, is to look for a shrinkage label stating that the shrinkage in the fabric is limited to one per cent, which guar-

. antees permanent fit. Then you

can buy the correct size and be sure that no essential inches will be lost no matter how many times the garments are laundered. | Use Thermometer | THE MOST ACCURATE method to turn out a perfectly baked roast is to use a cooking thermometer. Be sure to buy one of reliable make, insert it in the thickest part of the meat muscle so that the bulb is in the center of the roast. Use a slen"der, sharp knife or meat skewer to

- make the incision. If roasting un-

covered, baste the meat occasionally. When the thermometer regis‘ters the temperature designated in

oe the recipe, the roast should be done

as you like it. |

. Spray Dampens Clothes

EVEN IF YOU don’t care much

: about ironing, you will admit that

the weekly laundry is more easily

: . and quickly smoothed if the clothes - ° are dampened evenly. ®A 1 ight spray

is ideal. +A new, clever little device for this

. Z purpose is simply a small glass ~ Trontainer with a metal spray nozzle ~ “from which the water is sent out

a slight pressure on the leverike handle. This is an inexpensive little gadget that will soon pay for

itself over and re in time saved and pure convenience.

Brighter Brass

TO CLEANSE tarnished brass, wash -in ‘a-sqlution of warm soapy

scour lightly with a paste made of whiting mixed with . lemon juice. Wash again, rinse and dry and polish with a good commercial brass polish.

Home-Made Canisters

ATTRACTIVE KITCHEN canisters can be made by covering empty coffee cans with gay oilcloth. Cut the oilcloth as wide as the can is high and long enough to go round the can and lap over about one inch. Bind with tape and sew on snaps to fasten.

Block Knitted Garments

TO PRESS knitted garments, trace the outline desired on a clean piece of muslin and pin the garment over the muslin to conform to the pattern. Cover with a dry pressing cloth, then with ,a damp cloth and press with a medium hot iron until dry.

ARE THERE ANY 'TEEN-AGERS

Then your problem is not lack of gift possibilities—because ’teen-agers yearn for every imaginable kind of gift—but one of choosing just the right thing from the scads and scads of articles in the shops. The shopper has all the leeway .in the

world, even from the financial point of view. ; Perhaps it hasn't been long since Betty sang her doll to sleep, but she’s already in the mood for something fairly dazzling in the way of a bracelet. Metal link bracelets like the one illustrated, from which she may dangle her favorite gadget, may be bought at L. S. Ayres & Co. for from $6 to $12. One comes with a clever little padlock. Something special in lingerie may spell the last word in luxury for Betty. A warm and cuddly quilted rayon satin robe, made in wraparound style in pink, blue or white, would be a good bet at $10.95. Details of hand embroidery add. the luxurious touch approved by ‘teenagers to slips, nighties and panties whose prices start as low as $2.98. Or how about gloves? For “best” there are washable suedes obtainable for $4. Sportsy numbers include sheared bunny with leather palms, fur lined affairs, gay-colored knits or, newest of all, the authentic boxing glove at $2 which comes in bright colors. - For party-going, there are starlspangled mittens— very dressy but very warm—of black velvet with gilt or silver metal cloth trim. Easy to buy, too, because you don’t have to know the exact size. Just ask for large, medium or small. With the advent of the Coliseum last year the local shops erupted with skating togs and this" year their lines are even more colorful and varied. While you're considering skating outfits, give a thought to skates themselves. If Betty wants something a little different from fhe regular white shoe, L. Strauss & Co. have a Spaulding white-laced brown number at $10.98. They also carry the Planet skates at $11.98. Others rage from $5.98 to $22.50. And there’s nothing so gift-y as a real party dress or the accessories to go with it—fuzzy evening sweaters, handbags and honest-to-good-ness evening wraps like mother’s.

BETTY’'S BROTHER, JUNIOR, probably has some definite ideas, too, about what he wants for Christmas. He may want a “tux,” but he’d probably “go” for a supercomplete set of work tools with | chest. Prices range from $1 to $10 in local shops. He'll be all set to become the household “Mr. Fixit.” Christmas, however, is the best possible time to give Junior his first

Dr. Robbins

“Indiana’s heritage of democracy comes from the equalitarian basis of the raw frontier community blended with the’ideals (of descendants of American revolutionary. leade Dr. Roy M. Robbins. of the Butler University faculty t0ld Caroline Scott Harrison Chapter members of

|the D. A. R. yesterday.

Dr. Robbins spoke on “Our Democracy” at an afternoon meeting in the D. A. R. clubhouse. He also read an excerpt from the Indiana Centennial Ode, written by William Dudley Foulke and delivered on Admission Day, 1916. “Many of the people who came west and settled in Indiana were men and sons of men who in 1787 insisted that their ideals be planted to the westward, that the perpetuity of the Union be guaranteed by the creation of new states out of the wilderness. and that these new states embrace their democratic ideals,” Dr. Robbins pointed out. “The ideals of the Ordinance of 1787 were carried into Indiana’s Constitution of 1816.” Dr. Robbins’ instances of democratic theory in the State Constitution showed that all property qualifications for voting were absent for the first time in an American state constitution, that a larger share of the public officials were chosen by popular vote than usual, that the terms of office were short and elections frequent and that the educational system provided for was unusually advanced. “Another aspect of the 1816 Constitution is the provision for adequate defense,” Dr. Robbins said. “It is to be noted that every able bodied man between the ages of 18 and 45 ‘was regularly disciplined. The principle was accepted that every man owed his life if need for the defense of his home and community.” ’
