Spring has officially arrived in Speedway. How do we know???? Well, sir one day this week while we were meandering around Main Street snooping into everybody’s business, what should be hear but the num of a race car over at the race track. Yep, the first race car was taking its trial spin on the old -oval. Now if this isn’t a harbinger of spring, we’ll eat our faded fedora.

Maybe we’re part fire horse, but everytime the fire whistle blows we drop whatever we’re' doing and run to the fire. Now perhaps a lot of you folks didn’t know it, but going to a fire in Speedway is not just a satisfaction of curiosity. In this town the presence of friends and neighbors at a fire is often of great assistance. We had a small grass fire last week down on the George--town road and this reporter noticed that not many people turned out. Now, you new people in Speedway might as well get onto the hang of things by learning to go to all the fires if and when they happen. When the Prest-O-Idte whistle blows four short blasts, grab your hat and run. ■■ s> We just want to stop here and now to pay our tribute to Mr. Northcott and his fine school band. We attended the concert last week and we certainly enjoyed every minute of it. The youngsters render-

ed out some of the old favorite marches and then topped it all off by tooting one of Beethoven’s toughest numbers. Yessir, we’d say that North? .cott has done a fine job and he and the band are to be congratulated. Speaking of school activities reminds us that tonight’s the night for the senior play. Now we don’t know whether you can get tickets or not because at the last report they were selling like “ye old hot cakes” but from all reports, we’d suggest that you try to get tickets for if you miss this play, you’re really going to miss something. - After seven years on Main Street Dot has sold her restaurant. Dot’s Coffee Shop, as her eatin’ place was called, has been a familiar landmark on the “Main Drag” of this town and now it’s to go under the rather splendiferous title “Hollywood Case.” Well, we’ll all miss you Dot. Guess that’s about all for this week. Our mind is about as dull as the old time barber’s razor. SEE YOU NEXT WEEK. An Architrave An architrave is a term of classical architecture applied to the principal beam and lowest of the horizontal members supported by columns. Its position is directly above the columns, between which it extends, and it carries the upper members—frieze and cornice—of the entablature. It is used also to designate the molding around the side and top of a door or window frame or a similar molding around a wainscot or other panel. Belgian Congo The territory of the" Belgian Congo is about the size of the 15 southern states in the United States.

7%/s Dinner Qan Wait If Guests Are Late!

“KTEVER wait longer than half an 1 V hour for any dinner guest," says one prominent social authority. But, oh, what havoc can be wrought on a perfect meal in even that short time! The vegetables cool and wilt; the meat dries out; and as for the disposition of the hostess —suffice to say it wilts too. And finally, when the tardy guest does arrive, the hostess must absent herself to reheat and refurbish the food before she can serve. If you’re a very smart hostess, you will frankly admit that somebody’s bound to be late and plan a dinner that can take waiting blithely in its stride. Particularly then, are you fortunate if you have in your kitchen one of the special warming ovens that are a part of some of the modern electric ranges. You see, these new warming I ovens have a serving drawer arI rangement that holds twin casse- ; roles of food, keeping it hot enough for serving with no fear of burning. When ready to serve, moreover, the hot main dish and vegetable (as shown in the photograph) can be taken right from this electrically heated wanning compartment to the dinner or buffet table. As one idea for a successful waiting menu, we suggest a casserole dish featuring a combination of tender bits of ham and plump oysters in a melting cheese sauce. Fill the other casserole with brussel sprouts and garnish with decorative rounds of carrot cut with a

Polar Bears, Penguins Polar bears and penguins are found at opposite ends of the earth, so penguins need no protection from the bears, nor need they hide their eggs from them. Polar bears are of the north polar regions; penguins of the south polar areas.
