POTATOES IN THE DIET
Do you groan when ybu glance
at the bathroom scales 9 If you
do, and are turying to cut down
on calories, don’t be afraid of
the potato Eat it and enjoy it
as often as you like, preferably
undressed It’s the trimmings
that run up the calorie count.
Baked, boiled, or pressure
cooked, a potato doesn’t have to
upset your dietary plans. In fact,
this vegetable deserves its popu
larity, It is both versatile and
gives a high return in food
value for money spent. A
medium-size potato can supply
1/5 of the recommended daily
amount of vitamin C, as well as
worthwhile amounts of theß
vitamin thiamin and niacin,
and the minerals, iron, phos
phorous. and potassium
If you like potatoes but don’t
want them to interfere with
weight reduction, follow these
tips
If you’re boiling potatoes, cook
them in their skins to preserve
the nutrients Use as little water

About Africa
A movie of the great wild
animal preserve 30.0 miles from
Johannesburg, South Africa, was
seen b£ Society 10 at a meeting
-Saturday at the home of Mrs. .H.
Landis Shank, New Danville
Pike.
Mrs Richard Warfel, a native
of Johannesburg, told the women
of her home She said that the
game preserve was founded by
Stephanus Johannes Paulus Kru
ger, most famous of the Boer
presidents He is best known as
Oom Paul Krueper
Mrs Ethel Reinhold presided
at the meeting' Devotions were
led by Mrs. Elmer Esbenshade
and roll call was answered by
reading a verse from the Bible
containing the word “Faith ”
A vocal solo was sung by
Jesse Cutler accompanied by
Miss Rosemary Andrews
A contribution of $5 was sent
to the Mental Health Society
A social hour followed with
Mrs C C Shoemaker as co
hostess The, usual sale of home
made products was held
Mr and Mrs Abram Lefever

house June 27 when they will

bake sale” instead of the usual
auction.
and short a cooking time as
possible.
If you’re baking potatoes,
choose potatoes of the same size,
so they will be done at the same
time. Don’t pierce the- skin to
test for doneness, since internal
steam helps cook the potato and
piercing allows steam to escape
Instead, press the potato to see
if it is done
Slash each potato across the
top as soon as you take them
from the oven, then press to
force or “fluff up” the potato
This allows the damp steam,
which has done its 30b, to escape
quickly and keep the potato dry
.and mealy.
Potatoes are not necessarily
fattening, but the gravies and
fats that you pour over them
definitely are So cut down on
the trimmings if you’re counting
calories Or, try dispensing with
them entirely. You may find
that you like the potato for its
own flavor better than ever.
