For the first time in many moons park
ing spaces have been available in practically
every block downtown most of the time.
Customers benefited, and we don’t doubt, ap
preciated.
Keal test, however, comes now when the
process of marking cars and rechecking
again in two hours begins. There will be
squawks from careless local residents who
can’t say that they haven’t been warned.
1 here’ll be a loud and justified complaint
should the fact be overlooked that this or
dinance is primarily to cure local people of
a bad habit. Visitors should not be incon
venienced by it.
ONE OF THE BEST LAUGHS WE
ever had occurred at a football game during
college days. We had halfback, who, while
young enough, was almost entirely bald.
After a mad dash around end, his helmet
came off and someone up in the grandstand
yelled, “Take the faculty out and let the
students play!!!”
What reminded us of the incident was
the report that Ohio State coaches called
every play from the bench Saturday, aided
by a telephone connection with an assistant
coach high up in the press box. Many other
college coaches use the same strategy, with
out the aerial improvement.
Personally we prefer to watch quarter
backing of the amateur variety.
TWENTY-THREE STATES ARE OB
serving November 30 as Thanksgiving, 22
have followed the president’s proclamation
setting November 23 as the day while one
was undecided at last report and two are
observing both days. Reminds us of those
pre-Civil war words, “A nation divided—.”
The situation is a silly one which could
easily have been avoided. President Roose
velt should have consulted the governors in
the first place: they might well have follow
ed his lead in the second.
The lineups aren’t as political as they
might seem. Several Republican governors
apparently agreed with the president that
an. earlier Thanksgiving day wovffiF'help
Christmas business while several Democrat
governors preferred tradition.
STAGING A SUCCESSFUL CORN
husking contest calls for considerable co
operation. The district meet Tuesday was
an excellent example of what can be done
when town and country work together. Red
wood county farmers and Redwood Falls
business men took over the many duties
willingly and handled them ably. Everyone
who could spare the time and some who did
so at some inconvenience, volunteered or en
listed when asked. Several sponsoring or
ganizations worked together without a
hitch.
NEW ULM IS GOING TO OBSERVE
Armistice day for ONE HOUR between

we take it, doesn't fly at the Brown county
seat.

DON'T FEEL TOO SORRY ABOUT
Chicago’s losing that football game 85 to 0.
It’s one big institution that hasn’t been
criticized for subsidizing players.
READING ABOUT THE BLACKOUTS

great country. Over here, when the lights
go out you’re either in love or you’re sleepy.

A TWIN CITIES NEWSPAPER STORY
says efforts are being made to find a good
federal job for former Governor Benson, the
scheme being “to remove him as a candi
date for governor in 1940.’’ We thought the

THE STATE HIGHWAY PATROL SET

A RECENT MAGAZINE ARTICLE IN
forms us that while the American battle
ships have the biggest guns and heaviest
armor of any in the world, they are also the
slowest. They are sluggers, not boxers.
That seems strange, when Americans have
always been more or less speed crazy in
every other respect.—Park Region Echo.
HE ISN’T TYPICAL, OF COURSE,
but a fellow everybody knows who has been
on relief or WPA since his neighbors can
remember, who drinks to excess but still
drives a nice car and dresses his family
pretty well because he owes everybody that
ever trusted him or cashed one of his checks
—is doing his part to promote taxpayers’
strikes. 1
AN EXCHANGE COMPLAINS OF
Senator Shipstead’s “always taking the mid
dle of the road.” That really is un-Ameri
can. We’re usually at one extreme or the
other. We either allow the rich to fatten at
the expense of the poor, or support the poor
in such luxury that we threaten to break the
rich. We try to keep everyone from drink
ing for a time and then make it possible for
everyone to get all they can hold. We preach
disarmament and let our defenses get out
of date and undermanned, then rush full
speed into rearmament.
IT REALLY IS TOO BAD THAT LAW
violators in general are not hunted with the
same vigor that game wardens display in
their official activities and that crime in
general is not punished with the same re
lentless zeal that marks the prosecution of
game law violators. All manner of crimes
go unpunished and even when the guilty
parties are apprehended suspended sent
ences and paroles are common. But the
game laws are strictly enforced. No mat
ter if the offenders are mere boys the law
cracks down on them. Those same boys
could commit burglary and get a suspended
sentence without asking for it.—Springfield

The new quick heat of modern ELECTRIC ranges
will open your eyes. Flip a switch and up pops cook
ing heat . . . Just like that! And not only a surging
flow of heat in a hurry . . . but a constant flow of
even heat at controlled temperatures. Fast and
accurate—that’s why electric heat cocks so well —
makes food taste so good!
Here Is Another “Everyday Cooking Miracle”
Some little girls go to Atlantic City for their salt water
taffy and some little girls stay at heme and get salt water taffy
just the same. It’s a fact. You can make ‘-really truly” salt
water taffy right on your own electric range with its controlled
heat. And the seemingly infinite capacity cf the Thrift Cooker
is an ideal candy kettle, especially for a taffy mixture which
needs lots of room to bubble away to perf:ct doneness.
Here’s our “fool proof” recipe for a “gen-u-ine” salt water
taffy. This one’s “Chok'lit” and it’s flavored with peppermint
—a rival tc .Atlantic City’s best!
Chocolate Mint Salt Water Taffy
4 squares unsweetened 1 cup water
chocolate , IV2 teaspoons salt
1 tablespoon butter 2 teaspoons glycerine
2 cups sugar 2 or 3 dreps peppermint
1 cup light corn syrup extract
1. Melt chocolate in saucepan on surface unit turned to
LOW. Add butter. (Electric cookery has abolished the double
boiler.)
2. Put all ether ingredients except peppermint extract
into Thrift Cooker kettle, turn Calrocl heat switch to HIGH
and cook, stiiring until the sugar is dissolved.
3. Continue cooking until the temperature 262°F is reach
ed. Remove from unit, add chocolate and butter and stir only
enough to blend. Pour in greased pan. (Cold water test: Firm
almost brittle.)
4. When cool 6ncugh to handle pour the peppermint ex
tract into the center of the mass, and work carefully into mix
ture (the chocolate will also need to be blended into the taffy
at this point.) Remove from pan and pull. Did you know
that it isn’t necessary to grease ycur hands when pulling taffy?
You may dip your fingers in a little cornstarch if the taffy
gets cut of hand. You'll find that the candy will be less likely
to stick if you pull it with the thumb and fingers rather than
the whole hand.
5. When the candy is cold and rather firm, stretch out,
twist and cut into pieces of the desired size.
If you wish to vary flavors, just cook the taffy to 260°
and omit the chocolate. Divide the cooled taffy into portions
and add the desired flavoring to each portion. Salt water
taffy can be colored by adding a few dreps to the taffy dur
ing the pulling process.
And now that we have the taffy made without any casual -
ties (except a little taffy, perhaps on the traditional door
kneb) we have a full batch of mint flavored chocolate candy
—a wholesome goedie to satisfy young sweet tooths that go
right on craving their nourishment.
