THE NEWBERRY SUN, NEWBERRY, S. C. * ******* HOOSIHOIP MtUOSM Serve Simply; Keep Cool (See recipe below.) Refreshing Meals One ol the biggest problems which we homemakers will be facing these warm days is that of keeping cool and at the same time serving re freshing foods to the family. My own rules for keeping cool on these hot days include the following which you might find it helpful to adopt: Select foods which may be served chilled, or those which cook quickly: and another, choose foods that are colorful as they stimulate wilted ap petites. Never choose foods which are fussy and that take long to pre pare. Mother can exert much bet ter influence at mealtime if she ap pears cool and collected, and this is possible only if she has used as many shortcuts as possible. For your main dish select food to be either broiled or chilled. Two raw vegetables in a salad are preferred to two cooked ones if you want to keep cool. And, as for dessert, try ice cream or fresh fruit and ber ries, thus cutting preparation time to a minimum. *Majestic Salmon Loaf. (Serves 6) 2 cops canned salmon 2 packages lime gelatin Vi cup vinegar 1H cups boiling water 1V4 cups cold water 3 tablespoons lemon juice 1 teaspoon salt 2 cups finely shredded cabbage 3 hard-co iked eggs, sliced Place flaked salmon in bottom of loaf pan or mold. Dissolve gelatin in boiling water. Add cold water, vinegar, lemon juice and salt. Pour half of the warm gelatin over the salmon and chill. When set, fill mold with alternating layers of shredded cabbage and sliced eggs. Cover with remaining gelatin, chill until set. Unmold on crisp lettuce: garnish with potato chips, sliced cucumbers and lemon. These broiled lamb steaks don’t take long to cook, so they will be a boon to the hot weather home- ^ maker. The pota- I toes may be cooked ahead of time (or use left- overs) and broiled along with the meat to heat and become golden brown. Carrots are a colorful addition to the menu, and you may use the canned variety to save cooking time. Dress them up by melting butter and adding a small amount of mint jelly to it, and pour over the car rots before serving. Broiled Lamb Steaks. (Serves 6) 6 shoulder lamb steaks, cut 1 inch thick 3 tablespoons olive oil 6 tablespoons lemon juice 1 minced onion 1 teaspoon salt Mix olive oil and lemon juice. Add onion and salt and marinate lamb steaks in this mixture for two hours before broiling. Preheat broiling oven. Place steaks on rack three inches from heat. Turn oven regu lator on high. When one side is nicely browned, season with salt and pepper and turn. When second side Is browned, season and serve im mediately. Allow 6 to 8 minutes for each side. LYNN SAYS: Here are Tips For Picnics Fried chicken which may be eat en with the fingers is an excellent food for picnics. Wrap each piece Individually in waxed paper, place light meat on one side cf the bas ket, dark meat on the other side, and then dole it out. Meat loaf Is another good main dish for picnic.

Good accompaniments for the fried chicken lunch: Pineapple cole slaw, small cherry tomatoes, pickles or olives, fruit salad made of large pieces of fruit, or ambrosia. Make hamburgers of a larger size when going on a picnic as appetites are bound to be big. To make cheeseburgers, take along some wrapped slices of American cheese, and when the ‘'burgers” are al most done, place cheese on top and remove from fire just after it has melted.

THE TRAGIC END OF A NATION LESSON TEXT—II Kings 25:1-12. MEMORY SELECTION — Righteous ness exalteth a nation; but sin is a re proach to any people.—Proverbs 14:34. The end of the road! Down, down, down went Judah in its sinful re fusal to keep God’s Word, and ulti mately came the final day of reck oning. It always does! The catas trophe which had long been ap proaching had arrived at last. The fall of a capital city, which carries with it the empire, is a world-shaking event. The fall of Rome shattered the world for a thousand years. The fall of Berlin and Tokyo are within the memory of all of us, and the results are seen in a disordered world. The destruction of Jerusalem, which our lesson presents, was even more serious; for it was not only a national tragedy, but also one with deep religious significance. The wicked king Jehoiaklm was succeeded by his son Jehoiachin, a mere boy who reigned only three months. He gave way to Nebuchad nezzar, who appointed as his suc cessor his uncle Zedekiah. It is in the verses just preceding our lesson that we learn that Zede kiah turned against Babylon in an act of I. Rebellion (v. 1). Zedekiah ignored his oath of alle giance (II Chron. 36:13), for which he was condemned by Ezekiel as a traitor (Ezek. 17:13-18). Zedekiah has well been called the vanishing point in a diminishing line of kings. It was an evil thing he did (II Kings 24:19), and one which showed his conceit, vanity and rashness. True it was that he only followed what he had learned from his pred ecessors, but that is never a good excuse for a man foolishly to turn against God’s will. Observe that God was not just a disinterested spectator, and yet he had come to the place where he let Judah go down to its own awful doom. The worst thing that can hap pen to a man or a nation is to be let alone by God! Zedekiah’s act of folly quickly brought H. Retribution (vv. 2-10). Jeremiah urged Zedekiah to sur render (see Jer. 37, 38) in order to save Jerusalem and himself, but he refused, and the city was besieged. The king’s refusal to hear God’s prophet and his turning to Egypt for help speak to us of the manner in which unrepentant sinners reject God’s mercy and then seek help at the hopeless cisterns of this world (Jer. 2:13). The king tried to flee, but was taken captive. Then came the siege of Jerusalem. For one and one-half years the enemy gradually closed in, while famine and distress grew apace in the city. Jeremiah went through this entire period sharing his people’s trouble. The book of Lamentations is the record of this eyewitness. Sin does its terrible work. Even as it can take a great city and turn it into a plague spot marked by cruelty, suffering and death, even so it can bring forth its inevitable and unspeakable results in the life of the individual who persists in re sisting the voice of God. Note also that the sin of Zedekiah brought quick judgment, not only on himself, but upon his innocent children (v. 7), and on many in the besieged city who were equally guiltless of wrongdoing. It is again a picture of what sin does today in the homes and communities of our nation. UI. Removal (w. 11, 12). The fall of Jerusalem prepared the way for the closing scene of the immediate history of the nation as the people went into captivity. It also ended for the time being the history of the city that had once so proudly held a position of privilege and power, but was now brought down by its sin and rebellion against God. We say rightly that history re peats itself. We see that any nation that lifts itself up in pride and for gets God will inevitably perish. We ask ourselves where our beloved country stands. As we consider its debauchery and drunkenness, its disregard of moral standards, its indifference to the things of God, we feel that instead of pointing a finger of scorn at Judah, we ought to be on our faces before God in penitence and shame. Let us not assume that we hold a place of favor with God, which exempts us from the certainty of judgment. Israel was his chosen, and they still are, for his promises of ultimate blessing to them have never been withdrawn. But their sin brought certain punishment, and the same is true today not only of the nation but of the individual. The Sunday school lessons will take up the history of Israel again at this point in April, 1948, when we consider the captivity and the par tial return of tire people to their land. FICTION Cot net PERFECT STRANGER By JACK MOSHER T HE first thing Celia Brandon noticed about him was the way he sat. As if, she thought, studying the man at the corner table across the top of her menu, he had been propped up in his chair and was likely, at any minute, to go sliding off on the floor. “Does he come in often?” “Yes-a, Miss," said her waiter. “Every night this-a week, he come. But he does not eat. He just-a sits and sits.” Celia examined her find more closely. Saw that his skin was stretched altogether too tightly across his high cheekbones for him to be in good health. And his hair was greying much too rapidly, and his clothes were much too shabby for Garibaldi’s, which was on 52nd just around the cor ner from the thea tre district—a place where only the fa mous could afford to be shabby and where the really shabby rarely came. “Perhaps," she said, “he hasn’t the price of a meal.” “Then why does he come?" The waiter’s attitude, Celia felt, was a coldly commercial one. The way most folks with something to sell looked upon those who had no money to buy. And determined to put the waiter in his place, she said, “I thought his face was familiar. Yes, of course! It’s Freddy Malone. . . . Tell him," she said, “that I’d like him to join me.” “Yes-a, Miss!” For a moment after the waiter had delivered this invitation uncer tainty marked the man’s lean fea tures. There was a frightened ex pression in his deep-set eyes as they met hers. But when Celia countered with just the right degree of warmth in her own—the degree one would extend to a man friend not seen in many years yet warmly re membered—he rose and came to ward her table. He walked unsteadily and she wondered if he might be intoxi cated. If that explained his propped- up appearance of a moment ago. Then he was alongside, bowing just a little from the waist, and she was saying, “It’s so good to see you again, Fred.” “Yes. isn’t it,” he said. “Thanks for asking me over.” His tones made her feel that he was hungry. It was as if every word he spoke was scraped from the walls of his stomach, left some mark. And now that he was closer she could not mistake the suffering which lined his face. It was the kind that comes to those who find them selves alone in the world's largest city when dark closes in. More than food, she felt certain, was needed here. He needed good cheer. Someone to talk with. To make the joke with. To cry with. Someone who would supply the SEWING CIRCLE PAHERNS It was as if every word he spoke was scraped from the walls of his stomach, left some mark. things people needed so badly here in New York during the long lone some months of waiting for a break that sometimes never came. “How about a coke?” she said. “A pepper-upper, as they say.” He turned to the waiter, chuckling miraculously. “A pepper-upper,” he ordered, “for the lady." Then, when the waiter had gone off and leaning closer across the white tablecloth, “Look! It’s nice of you. Having me like this, I mean. But I can’t ac cept—” “Forget it,” Celia said, trying her utmost to spare him. “I don’t know about you, but I’m hungry. Let's concentrate on dinner.” “Yes, of course. The dinner.” “How about some sea food?” “Not for me.” He made a wry face. “I’ve just come from there. Maybe you took notice of my roll.” “I wondered what it was.” ** IT’S THE genuine article,” he as- sured her. “A Clyde-Mallory Line freighter just brought me hack from the Far East. . . . You see,” he hurried on as if he had just so much time in which to tell it, “I struck it tough in Singapore. Went out there to work for a big oil com pany. It wasn’t so big, because it folded a few weeks after I arrived. I was on the beach three months, broke to the wide, before I got this chance to work my way home—” “Forget that now,” Celia said, judging from his tones that every word must be an effort for him. “This Spaghetti Italienne sounds mighty good to me.” “But I can’t forget,” he insisted. “And I think you should hear me out. Have you ever,” he demanded, while Celia could find not a word with which to check him, “known what it is to be hungry, to starve? “Did you ever go for days with nothing but what black servants hand out at kitchen doors?

But let’s get on with ordering now, eh?” “Yes, of course. Ordering.” He sounded the least bit let down. As if he were offended by her ap parent lack of interest in his story. But he bucked up as the meal progressed from soup through Spa ghetti Italienne With meat sauce, as only Garibaldi’s can make it, to dessert. He grew quite genial and mellow, in fact. “I must see more of you,” he said. “You do me good.” “We do each other good, you mean.” M'T'HATS IT!” He was an en- thusiastic as a school boy at tending his first grown-up date. “I could get a job in Mexico. There’s a fellow—’’ “But why not try here in New York?” “In an office?” “Not necessarily.” “Then what?” “Had you ever thought of acting,” Celia said as the waiter returned with a small silver tray containing a half dollar and three thin dimes. “You know what they say? If you can’t make a go of anything else you’re sure to click on the stage. And it seems to me,” she added, making a fine show of waving the waiter and the eighty cents away, “that with the experience you’ve had knocking around the world you could put a lot of punch into play acting.” He smiled broadly. “Maybe you’re right. In fact, I know you’re right.” “What do you mean?” “Simply,” he told her, “that I AM stage. I’ve just been putting on an act here. Rehearsing for my new play ... I need a girl to play oppo site me. She’s rich as all get out. Money doesn’t mean a tiling to her. . . . That’s exactly the kind of girl you are in real life. So how about coming around in the morning to sign a contract? I’m Noel How ard—” “Noel Howard?" Celia didn’t spare the name mentioned with awe around casting offices where she had spent months trying to get a small part in his new production— in any production. “Then, listen you!” she flung at him. “How about buying me another dinner right now? I couldn’t eat a bit of that one for thinking I’d spent my last five dollars. . . .” What to Do With An Inferior Complex You may think that you alone are In possession of an inferiority com plex, but nine out of ten persons also have one. Probably most inferiority com plexes start in babyhood. There you were, small and weak and helpless and inarticulate, and you looked up. Above you, you saw a creature tow ering, your mother or father, strong, self-reliant, able, while you were so weak and dependent. Right then and there you acquired the begin ning of an inferiority complex, and as you grew older, your complex became stronger. Some psychologists, rather than see in the inferiority complex a per sonality handicap, actually look upon one as a good thing. They have, indeed, dubbed it the "golden complex,” because as one of their number explains, “A personality complex is the spark that disturbs the clod.” What he meant was that our per sonality complex makes us conscious of our shortcomings, causes us to set up resolutions to improve, to compensate for our inadequacies, and as we develop, we develop our mental and physical strengths. We really become somebody because of our complexes, don’t you see? What should you do right away with (yours? Analyze to see where it started and when. And then go about getting rid of it for good.
