Death Misses Classroom Mark by One Hour

w. --

Death was cheated by one hour’s time recently when a water heater exploded in the Ripon junior high school at Modesto, Calif. The heater blew up at 6:55 in the morning and ripped out a whole corner of the athletic building, left. It sailed 150 feet through the air and was projected through the agricultural building, right, piercing both walls of the structure like a giant cannon ball. It sailed another 150 feet before burying itself in the ground. There were no casualties as classes were not scheduled to gather until one hour later. <

THIS SEASON BRINGS EGGS AND MORE EGGS (See Recipes Below)

For an Easter Feast

The Easter season brings eggs and more eggs to the tables of the

whole world, it seems. There are tinted eggs, eggs with dainty and intricate patterns adorning their glossy shells, and eggs decked out

to look like Easter bunnies. Eggs may be decorated, too, with gaily colored stickers—and if you’re clever with your fingers, you can make a giddy blonde or demure brunette egg, sporting a new Easter bonnet! Use bright blue round stickers for eyes, and a tiny gummed heart for a mouth. Or, if you like, paint in the features, and tint the “cheeks” with ordinary water color paints. Cotton or fringed crepe paper may be glued on to resemble hair, and an Easter bonnet is made from a tiny paper nutcup, bits of colored paper, and a tiny feather or artificial flower. When the bunny comes around with his gift of eggs, keep him as

a guest at your Easter table. He’ll be a delight to children and grownups alike if his basket is filled with candy eggs that the children

themselves can eat. But Easter Sunday demands more than eggs in the way of food! It’s a day of feasting and most of us plan and plot for weeks ahead to give the family a truly delicious and unusual meal. Leg of lamb or baked ham are the traditional foods around which most of us plan our Easter menus. Either may be used in the menu below, to excellent advantage.
