The second edition of
The Whole Valley Cook-
book is on the stands in
area stores just in time
for Christmas gift giving.
The collection of ethnic
recipes and historical
summaries is a popular
item with Valley people
unique and welcome gift
since its initial publica-
tion in 1980,
The second edition has a
few added features in-
cluding an extra chapter
‘‘Another Good One’’,
which offers one more
recipe from each of the 15
ethnic groups repre-
sented. It is also improved
with color on the cover
and heavier, plasticized
material as a binding.
Betty Schector, one of
many Back Mountain
members of the Wyoming
Historical Society, served
as co-chairman of the
book. She explained the
purpose behind the en-
deavor. “It was a big
project,” she said. ‘“The
book is put together by the
Publication Committee of
the Historical Society to
earn money. It serves a
dual purpose in that it also
brings interesting
historical information to
the public, which is what
an historical society
should do.”
Originally, the com-
mittee wanted to support
and publish scholarly
historical research
material, which is its
basic function. However,
Schector explained,
members did not think
such material would sell
to the public and there
was no money in the
budget for publications of
that nature. So, in order to
provide money for the
scholarly work, the
idea of a cookbook. The
Whole Valley Cookbook
offers an opportunity to,
make many of the ethnic
specialties from the area
and at the same time,
learn’ of the history and
background of 15 ethnic
groups. Each nationality
is chronicled in ‘a sum-
mary including: ‘when and
why the group came to the
Valley and how it has
grown or established
itself since. ‘The Valley is
unique in the number of
ethnic groups which have
come to settle,” said
Schector. “It was our in-
tentt to increase (the
public’s knowledge of the
history of the area in
general. Not just its
beginnings, but what led
to today.”
A large number of
people contributed to the
cookbook. Each ethnic
group is represented by
two typical menus, one for
holidays . and one for
everyday. Many of the
recipes used in the menus
are printed and serving
customs and habits are
included.
Schector credits retired
King’s College librarian
Mary Barrett with the
initial impetus on . the
project. ‘“‘She steered us
to the people who had the
recipes. Her input was
invaluable. Besides being
a gourmet cook she has a
wide variety of
acquaintances in the
Valley, many of whom
know a lot of the history.”
The first edition of the
cookbook turned out to be
very popular within the
Valley itself. For the
second edition, Schector
was aided in her chair-
man duties by Ann Bohlin.
Other contributors on the
editorial staff were Karen
Keefer, Monica Reynolds
and Sarah Carr, who
produced the index,
another new feature.
At the back of the book
is a complete listing of all
contributors of recipes
and historical sum-
maries. Included in that
list are several Back
Mountain cooks. Mary
Frantz, Esther Sternlieb
and Mrs. John
Conyngham graciously
dug into their collections
to share some favorites
with the public.
The cookbook’s
popularity is based on the
interest Valley people
have in their heritage and
customs. While satisfying
that need, the committee
has ‘also found a way to
support ‘scholarly re:
search’ so vital to’ its
purpose.

Ladders

A ladder can conduct power from an Rade
overhead line to you. :
Metal ladders are handy because they're
so light, but metal ladders near overhead
lines are particularly dangerous.
Even a wooden ladder, if it’s damp, can
conduct electricity.
Take a good look before you use a ladder.
Make sure there are no overhead lines
nearby.
Be careful about placing a ladder to climb
atree — the tree may be near an overhead
power line. Children should be cautioned
about climbing trees that are near overhead
power lines. J
Overhead lines are not insulated, so ~~ |
every precaution should be taken to keep
away from them. Even a tree limb touching a
line may conduct high voltages. .
There's one single safety rule to follow:
