Delicious “Eats”
Suggested For
The Fall Picnic
Lake City — Texaco Service Sta
tion taken over by Mont Coleman
and B. W. Calcutt.
. Dillon — Flower show held here
at recent date.

The fall, with its invigorating at
mosphere and brightly painted
landscape, offers a greater incen
tive to many of us to enjoy the
great outdoors than does the
warmer weather. The cool even
ings invite the building of a fire
and» naturally a fire brings
thoughts of food. Oftentimes we do
not want a whole meal, just enough
for an excuse to build a fire and
have a good time. Then, too, we
do not want to be bothered with
preparing the food to take or with
carrying more than necessary.
Weiners and marshmallows are
an old stand-by for fall picnics but
those who like to eat in the open
frequently will welcome these sug
gestions by the National Live
Stock and Meat Board.
Have You Tried Cabob?
The cabob is delicious and as
easily cooked as weiners. It is
meat and onion cooked on a long
pointed green twig. On the twig is
put first a piece of bacon, an inch
cube of beefsteak, another piece of
bacon, then a ring of onion, then a
slice of bacon, another cube v of
steak, more bacon, more onion un
til three pieces of steak have been
mounted on the stick. The cabob
is then applied to the living red-
hot embers, and the juices . blend
together and run back over the
meat.
IS you can take a frying pan
alQW£y° u ma^. want to try a hot
sancwlch made of dried beef and
tomatoes. Slice three or four fresh
tomatoes and place in a hot but
tered frying pan. Sprinkle with a
little flour and salt and cook un
til tomatoes are soft and slightly
brown. To this add 1 cup ' rich
milk or cream and 1 cup chipped
beef, pulled into small pieces. Cov
er pan and cook slowly until thor
oughly heated and slightly thick
ened.
Scrambled eggs and bacon will
always find favor with a picnic
crowd. Cut the bacon into pieces
about an inch square. Fry until
crisp and then pour off the fat,
'ust leaving enough to cook the
'ggs. Break the eggs into the pan,
'.ook until done, season and you
will have a delicious mixture of
^rambled eggs and bacon.
A dessert with one of these meats
'z all that is necessary to complete
he meal. One which is easily made
consists of sandwiches made of
graham crackers, one-third bar of
sweet chocolate and two marsh
mallows. Put chocolate on gra
ham cracker, toast marshmallows,
place above chocolate and add sec
ond cracker.
Death Of Mrs.
Rubie Reynolds
Our community was overshadow
ed with sadness on Saturday, Oc
tober 25, 1930, when the news came
of the sudden death of M’*s. Rubie
Reynolds.
She was Miss Rubie White before
her marriage almost 12 years agt
to Mr. Eldred Reynolds. She wer
a kind child and grew into a noble
woman. Early in Ihe she gave her
heart to God and united with Plum
Branch Baptist Church, and wat
never happier than when in God’s
services and doing her Master’s
will.
She was a devoted wife, affec
tionate mother, good neighbor and
friend to everyone.
Rubie is now at rest with Him
above, but her influence will ne’er
die; may this shock help to make
those who know not God in pardon
for their sins, think seriously about

CLEMSON COLLEGE, Oct. 25.—
In the excellent display of super

com club at the State Fair this
year, the prize-winning exhibit was
that of Dan W. Bickley, Lexington
county club boy, who has already
made a name for himself in hav
ing won this prize in 1927 and fol
lowed it up by winning the South
ern Railway cup for the best corn
grown in South Atlantic States
served • by that railway. Young
Bickley’s exhibit is said by com
petent judges to be an outstand-
'ng ™ie, the variety being Belmbnt

State ^weepstakes and the
Southern Railway cup. In 192£

Joseph Scliildkraut
'Star Reporter
In “Night Ride”
BARBARA KENT IS HEROINE IN
FAST-MOVING STORY OF
GANGLAND
Gangland and the newspaper
game, offering an unequalled field
for colorful adventure and ro
mance, furnish the background of
“Night Ride” a fast-moving, higb-
ly-dramatic, Universal picture
which comes to The Dixie Theatre
Friday and Saturday.
Schildkraut, as a “dude” star re
porter, wins the girl of his dreams
and while they are being married
the telephone rings and calls him
back to duty on a red-hot story.
True to newspaper* tradition, he
leaves his bride-of-a-minute and
dashes off on his story—the pur
suit of a murdering gangster, “Tony
Garotta.”
“Garotta,” however, traps Schild-*
kraut and takes him for the well-
known “ride,” in the meantime
bombing the house in which
Schildkraut has left his bride.
What happens then, with dramatic
situations piling on top of each
other, is as exciting as a story can
be, and yet it is authentic.
Schildkraut, who starred with
Laura La Plante in “Show Boat’’
and later alone in “T*he Mississippi
Gambler,” both costume pictures,
appears to advantage in his
“straight” role as a reporter. Op
posite him as his imperilled bride
is winsome Barbara Kent whose
performance makes one look for
ward to her next picture.
No finer characterization of a
big-city gangster has been seen on
the screen than that given by Ed
ward G. Robinson in the part of
“Garotta.” Robinson is perfection.
He was imported from New. York
for the role after his remarkable
performance as the Greek gunman
in the stage production of “ The
Rack^.” Others who turn in com
mendable performances are Harry
Stubbs, as Schildkraut’s reporter
pal, and DeWitt Jennings, as the
police captain.
“Night Ride’’ rates as a splendid
picture splendidly done.
