VICTORY GARDEN
COMMUNIQUES
BACKYARD AREA (Delayed).—
Under continuous heavy pounding
the struggle on this front continues
to be touch and go. Bad weather
has hampered progress, and the
time element is now more impor
tant than ever in operations in this
area. The attack is being pressed
whenever possible by the whole fam
ily, but the results have not been
too encouraging.
There is a tendency to blame in
adequate equipment. Tactics so far
have yielded mediocre results, but
the campaign is still in its early
stages.
• » •
THE LOT NEXT DOOR.—There has
been sharp activity here lately. Large
groups have appeared with various types
of weapons, some rather unusual for op
erations of this sort, but there has been
no unified drive.
Several battles over boundaries have
taken place. Casualties have been rather
heavy, many hospitalizations being due to
twisted ligaments, overstrained muscles
and stiff backs. It is apparent that the par
ticipants in this campaign need further
seasoning.
• • •
COMMUNITY GARDEN CEN
TER.—Sporadic operations have
followed the concentrated and
aggressive moves of last week.
The large formations of share-
the-crop-troops so active earlier
have thinned out. Strategy is
hard to follow. Small groups ap
pear out of nowhere from time
to time and start digging, but
they abandon the drive after a
minimum of effort.
There is a shortage of equip
ment, especially wheelbarrows.
Those engaged here insist that
the supply system is at fault, too.
Experts insist that the main
trouble is a confusion of objec
tives. Eight of our more light
hearted gardeners are missing.
• • *
OUT BEHIND THE BARN.—What
seemed about to develop into a ma
jor drive here wound up in a minor
argument over objectives. One group
wanted tomatoes, lettuce and lima
beans; the other held out for com,
carrots and potatoes. Both sides
were bringing up replacements late
today.

Ely Culbertson, noted bridge ex
pert, is now out with a plan for a
post-war world. We think Ely espe
cially qualified to handle the prob
lem, which is as closely related to
bridge as anything else. For in
stance, one of the first questions at
the peace table will be: Who is go
ing to be “Dummy”?
The more we think of Mr. Culbert
son and war the more we like his
playing a hand in the world of to
morrow. What’s responsible for
most of the trouble the world finds
itself in today, anyhow?
Over-bidding, getting the signals
mixed, reneging, trumping at the
wrong time and not knowing when
you’re vulnerable.
Of course those bridge party sandwiches
have a lot to do with it, too.

Lesson for May 23
Surprise the Family With Sandwich Loaf!
(See Recipe Below)
Meals on a Dish
We’ve heard a lot about hot meals
in a casserole that take care of the
main course of a
meal. But how
about cool meals
served on a sin
gle attractive
platter that are
most of the time,
at least, made up
ahead of time? This is one of the
very nice things about summer
menu planning for foods lend them
selves to this kind of serving.
Recently I saw a very attractive
platter that was cool, complete and
colorful—that any one of you could
whip up at short notice. An individ
ual tomato aspic filled v/ith creamed
cottage cheese served on a large
green glass salad plate was banked
by several tiny finger sandwiches, a
slice of tongue with horseradish
sauce, deviled eggs, a small mound
of potato salad and a sprig of water
cress. Serve this with coffee or tea
and a dish of sherbet or ice cream.
Bread with filling forms an inter
esting base for this salad-sandwich
loaf and looks very pretty enclosed
in rosy aspic. The fillings, ham
and cheese, classic flavor combina
tions, won’t cut into your points
heavily, nor will the tomato juice:
*Tomato Aspic Surprise.
(Serves 6)
1 small loaf white bread
Ham Salad
1 5-ounce glass Old English cheese
3Vi cups tomato juice
2 tablespoons onion juice
1 stalk celery
3 tablespoons gelatin
Vi cup cold water
Vi teaspoon salt
Vs teaspoon pepper
Watercress
Remove crusts from loaf of bread.
Cut whole loaf into three length
wise slices. Spread one slice with
ham salad, cover with second slice
spread with cheese spread. Cover
with third slice of bread and wrap
in wax paper.
Cook tomato juice, onion juice and
celery for 5 minutes. Remove cel
ery and add gelatin which has been
softened in cold water. Stir until
dissolved. Season with salt and pep
per. Pour a Vi-inch layer into a
buttered loaf pan which is a little
larger than the loaf of bread. Chill
until firm. Place prepared sand
wich loaf in this layer of aspic and
pour the remaining cooled and some
what thickened aspic around it and
over the top. Chill again until the
aspic is firm. Unmold on a platter,
garnish with watercress and slice
crosswise to serve.
You can still do entertaining even
on your ration points! If your best
beau or son is coming home from
camp, there’s no need to worry about
stretching those ration points out of
place when you serve this loaf serv
ing 12 to 15 people:
Lynn Says:
A Heart of Gold: That’s a dan
dy description of the egg which is
good to eat, plus a first class pro
tein. If you like ’em stuffed
here’s a grand parade of sugges
tions :
Cut hard - cooked eggs into
halves, mash them, season ac
cording to taste and refill the
whites. Garnish with paprika and
a sprig of parsley.
Chopped celery with the
mashed yolks is a good filling if
you like crispiness. Or, mix the
yolk with Thousand Island dress
ing for variety and serve around
a salad.
Yolks deluxe include mixing
with 1 cup cooked peas, pureed,
2 slices bacon, chopped and fried
crisp, IV? tablespoons cream, 1
teaspoon vinegar, Vi teaspoon on
ion juice, 1 tablespoon minced pi
mento, Vi teaspoon salt and
enough mayonnaise to moisten.
If you have a dab of leftover
ham, mince it fine and add with
enough mayonnaise to moisten to
egg yolks mashed fine and refill
whites.

BIBLE TEACHINGS ON WINE’S
DECEITFULNESS
LESSON TEXT—Proverbs 20:1: 23:29-39;
Matthew 24:43-31.
GOLDEN TEXT—At the last It blteth like
■ serpent, and stingeth like an adder.—
Proverbs 23:32.
Deceitful is a good word to de
scribe both the product and the
propaganda of the liquor business.
Alcoholic beverages are in them
selves most deceitful, and the meth
ods by which they are sold to the
public certainly cannot commend
themselves to right-thinking people.
Intoxicants are associated with
social preferment, festive occasions,
radiant beauty, when they ought to
be connected with the bleary eye,
the babbling tongue, the ragged chil
dren and brokenhearted mothers.
What about the men who have lost
their positions and their characters,
and the women who have paid with
their virtue for their love of intoxi
cants? Why not picture them in the
beautiful magazine advertisements?
I. Wine Is a Deceiver (Prov. 20:1).
Wine is personified here as an
evil demon who leads men on in the
hope of some pleasure or advantage,
and then lets him down to the depths
of destruction. It makes him think
he is great and powerful, when he
is only weak and degraded. It ex
cites him to foolishness and wild
boisterousness, when he would nor
mally be sensible, quiet and orderly.
He who thought he was wise in
partaking of its stimulation, finds
himself deceived, and to his regret
he realizes that he is a fool in the
hands of a malicious deceiver.
n. Wine Is a Depraver (Prof. 23:
29-35).
Depravity is a word not used as
much as it was a generation ago,
but it well describes the condition
to which the drunkard comes in due
time. And it is wine and other
liquor which has depraved or cor
rupted him. A number of things
appear in the text.
1. Liquor Destroys (w. 29, 30).
This is true morally, mentally,
physically, and spiritually. Red eyes,
wounds, complaining—these are only
the outward signs of inward phys
ical destruction of alcohol. Woe and
sorrow speak of mental and social
distress. The moral and spiritual
destruction follow.
2. Liquor Deludes (w. 31, 32).
Its color, its sparkle and effer
vescence, its smooth appearance—
all excite the anticipation of good
ness and pleasure. And what does
the drinker receive? The bite of the
serpent and the sting of the adder.
How true!
3. Liquor Demoralizes (v. 33).
Alcohol is the handmaiden of im
morality. “Strange women” come
into the picture very quickly. They
and the drinker soon find that drink
sets them free from the limitations
of decency and good sense, and the
result is beyond description.
Those who defend liquor, or tem
porize with this problem, may as
well recognize that they are encour
aging the moral destruction of our
boys and girls. It is a terrifying
responsibility!
4. Liquor Dulls Man’s Senses and
Dazes Man’s Mind (w. 34, 35). Only
a fool would lie down to sleep in the
midst of the sea, or on top of the
mast of a ship, or in the gutter, or
against a lamp post. That’s what
drink does for a man.
His perceptions become so dull
that he can be beaten, and he does
not know he has been hurt. Ex
posed to inclement weather, he
knows not enough to seek shelter.-
His money is lost or given away
without concern on his part.
And when he sobers up—what
then? His faculties are so dazed that
he can think of only one thing to do,
and that is to seek more wine. What
is it that Scripture says about the
dog and the fool? (See Prov. 26:11).
III. Wine Is a Destroyer (Matt.
24:45-51).
We have already touched on that
point in its personal application, but
now we see it in its bearing on his
occupation and standing in the com
munity.
The contrast is between the good
servant who recognizes that his one
and constant obligation is to serve,
whether his master is present or ab
sent, and the evil servant who vio
lates his trust.
Notice that his first thought after
cruelty to his fellow servants is to
satisfy his appetite "to drink with
the drunken.”
Cruelty, mismanagement, unfaith
fulness are tied up without question
with drinking. Is it not so today?
If you doubt it, read your daily
newspaper. Why trifle with any
thing which keeps such evil com
pany? You may find yourself mixed
up with them beyond your ability to
get free.
The final result is the loss of his
position and of his life. Who will
deny that this aptly states the end
of the drunkard’s way. But some
one says: n I do not intend to be a
drunkard. I only take a social
drink.” That is the way the drunk
ard started. Why begin to travel
that road?
Due to an unusually large demand and
current war conditions, sllghUy more time

Fight the Forgery Racket!
By Fkank J. Wilson
Chief, United States Secret Sendee
DROTECT yourself against those
*■ who steal and forge government
checks, first by having your mail
box equipped with a good lock. If
you lock the box AFTER a check is
stolen, you will be learning the
hard way. Second:
Be at home, or have some mem
ber of the family at home, when
government checks are due to be
delivered.
Professional mail thieves often
follow mail carriers along their
routes. After the carriers deposit
mail in the letter boxes, the
thieves steal checks from the
boxes. Sometimes the forger also
steals monthly bills for electricity
or gas, so that when he asks a
storekeeper to cash his forged
check, he can show the merchant
the bills to make him believe the
forger is the person entitled to the
check. In other words, he uses
other stolen mail to identify him
self and get the stolen check
cashed. If you can get your check
as soon as it is delivered, it cannot
be stolen.
Remember—forgers aren’t par
ticular, but YOU must be I

16,000 Suits on Invention
The invention of the Roberts Tor
pedo in 1866 was followed by the
greatest patent litigation in Amer
ican history, says Collier’s. Before
the legality of its patent was up
held by the United States Supreme
court in 1880, this device for shoot
ing oil wells was so widely in
fringed upon that more than 16,000
suit:, and countersuits were filed,
all those brought to a decision
being won by the inventor.
