i • Make Cookies! It’s fun to make cookies when you have the “know-it-all” right at hand. Make it easy for yourself by following these simple directions: Start heating the oven before you actually make the cookies so all will be in readiness when you pop the sheets in the oven. Assemble all the equipment needed. Assemble and measure the ingredients. Prepare cookie sheets next. If cookies contain much fat, sheets need not be greased. Pans for bars should be buttered, lined with waxed paper, then buttered again. Shortening creams best at room temperature. It should not be melted as this injures texture and flavor of cookie. Eggs are usually well beaten before added to the shortening and sugar If the quantity of eggs is small, they may be added directly to shortening and sugar

firm. Cut into squares while warm and remove from pans while still warm Sate Used Fats! A cornflake cookie wdth orange flavoring will really enchant the family: ♦Cornflake Refrigerator Cookies.

Bananas Long Known

The Chinese literature of 3,000 years ago mentioned bananas. In 327 B. C., Alexander the Great found bananas growing in the valley of the Indus in India. Later, history records the crop’s further journey westward to East Africa, then to the Holy Land and northern Egypt. In 1482 the Portuguese found the fruit growing along the African west coast, where the natives gave it the name “banana.” At the time Columbus sailed on his voyage of discovery the banana was growing abundantly in the Canary Islands.
