SAYS FRYING PAN MUST GO Domestic Science Expert Says This Method of Cooking Food Is Wasteful. Bugene, Ore.—“The frying pan must go,” said Miss Lillian Tingle, head of the household arts department of | the University of Oregon, before her class on the conservation of food. “It is a utensil of the pioneer, who had plenty of food to prepare in the quickest and simplest way. The peo- ple of this country always have been wasteful, and unless we reduce ma- terially our consumption of meat we shall face a meat famine. “French people cook in a casserole, thus saving every bit of the nourish- ment of the meat.

Tune “Marching Thru Georgia.” | (By Cottonwood Publie School Pupil) Pass around the good old dish, We'll have another bean; Everybody scrape their plates, Be sure you leave ‘em clean; Food, they say, will win the war; We know what waste will mean, Shouting the battle ery of Hoover. CHORUS: Hurrah, Hurrah, we're going to win the day; Hurrah, Hurrah, for Hoover knows the way; So eat all the corn and beans you want, and fish and poultry too, But save, save, save the wheat and meat, girls. Course we know that it is hard To let the candy go; And nice white bread with spread Isn’t easy to forego; But think about your soldier friends, It’s easy then, you know, Shouting the battle ery of Hoover. CHORUS: Hurrah, Hurrah, we know the cause is right; butter Hurrah, Hurrah, so tho we cannot fight We'll send them all the food we! can, to do our little bit, So save, save, save the fats and su- car, girls, Wheat-saving Breads.
