His record w T as 796 per cent The next highest tecord to Mr. Langston’s was T2 per d'ent held by Chester county. Mr. Langston has a list” of bulls Christians in Corinth w'ho did not believe they should use meat that had been offered unto idols. Among these Christians w'ere some who had once been pagans and who had offered unto false gods, and it was possible that these would be badly influenced by something that might appear to them as a compromise with heathenism. They could not see how" nTcat offered to idols could be eaten by Chris- i There was something to be said for each side. But Paul saw there was still another thing to be reck- I oned with—the influence a man might have upon others in eating meats offered to idols. And the , principle he laid dow r n would solve many difficulties. He wrote that if meat should make his brother to offend, he would eat no more meat as long as the world should stand If you could justify to yourself moderate drinking, should you ex- bo entitled to have more than one J sitibn to own a bull member serving on dhe commission 1 purposes, and especially .ind out distributor to represent producing bulls of such value, am given time and not more Many commercial dairymen .would m one producer selling milk to do well to use higher producing •he same company shall be eligible bulls than the ones they own and 1 serve on the commission.

An|*' rance ' iron and HOUSEHOLD HINTS Did you know that many jfcods can be refrigerated until heating, baking or serving time? Take ad vantage of the refrigerator to save last minute food preparation. Muffin batters can be stored right in their greased tins, tightly covered with waxed paper or alum inum foil, to prevent crusting of the batter. Pop in the oven before mealtime to bake. Want , to, have something creamed for dinner? Keep a jar of cream sauce in the refrigerator and you’ll, be ready for quick creamed things on a few moment’s notice. If you have difficulty in keeping the cookie jar well stocked, keep cookie doughs in your freezing unit. Most doughs will benefit by the chilling process. In this way you can mix and store, then bake at your leisure. v Croquettes“will fry better in that they hold their shape, if they’re chilled. Put the mixture together in the morning, shape and chill until ready to fry. Exterior view of the Hart Clinic. Note large window in reception room, allowing sunny and cheerful atmosphere.
