Alan and I had luncheon recently, at which time I mentioned Bob Vereerfs exposure of the shoplifting racket among hardware retailers. So Alan added a few more specific tricks used to defraud our honest, tax-paying stores. And his remark about the churches merits more spotlighting. By - George Ph. D., M.D. W. Crane, SHOP IN McHENRY CASE J- 520: Alan B., aged 28, is a soft drink distributor. "Dr. Crane," he added, as we dined together recently,'"! can add a few extra tricks used by, shoplifters, to supplemeitf the ones you say Bob Vereen discovered. "One of my customers was victimized recently by the •marked bill' ruse. "A couple of men entered the store, ostensibly as strangers. " The first one bought apackage of cigarets and paid for it with a $10 bill. "But the young sales girl didn't notice that this man had written a girl's name and phone number on that $10 bill! "A few seconds later, the other man also bought a package of cigarets and paid for them with a $1 bill. "Before he left the store, he hastened back to the cashier and told her that she had made a mistake by giving him change for only a $1 bill, when he said he had handed her a $10 bill. "The girl answered that she was sure he had given her only a $1 bill. "But the man protested in apparent sincerity that he had had just a $10 bill and a $5 bill in hfk pocketbook and showed her that the $10 bill was now missing. " Then, as an afterthought, he told her he could even identify the $10 bill, for he had his girl's name and phone number scribbled across one corner thereof. "So he urged the cashier to please look at the top $10 biU in the cash register and see. "Sure enough she found the $10 bill on top, with the name-^ and address just as he had predicted. "In some embarrassment, the girl then apologized and agreed that she must have been mistaken. So she handed this petty crook an additional $9 in change. "Dr. Crane, she should obviously have made him wait till the day's tally was checked against the total money inside the cash register, which would have proved her right in the first place. "But the circumstantial evidence seemed so valid, and she was inexperienced with crooks, so she became the victim of this trickery. "Another stunt that a grocer told me had been worked in his store, also involved two men. " One oame in with a big shopping bag and filled it with $20 worth of grocery items. "It was then checked out by the cashier, who gave him the sales slip, plus his trading stamps. " But he dumped the contents of the shopping bag into-his auto and then handed the empty shopping bag, plus his sales slip and even the trading stamps, to his accomplice. " The latter entered the store and bought the very same grocery items, so the tally would match in exact detail his partner's sale slip. "He then took one more item, which he carried in his hand to the checkout girl. "When she protested that he should pay for the bulging shopping bag's items, he protested that he had already done so, and showed her both the sales slip, plus the trading stamps. "So this scheming pair got double the amount of groceries for that $20, and could work this stunt on other stores, indefinitely. "Dr. Crane, why don't our churches spend more time on these signs of immorality nearer home, than protesting about Jbe handcrafted look for any room! rn of -are old Spanish motifs, here's a beautiful r.cv.- design that breathes excitement mt-'» tocav's decor Surrounded by a knitted binge or trinee 11 -ur»erb colors from warm to wild All's flair with a ra ttan ncluding Furniture Showplace of the Midwest 1818 S. Rt. 47 Ph. 338-1086 Woodstock, III. Beginner Cooks Need'Wardrobe9 Of Pots 9n9 Pans NEW YORK (a)--Are you a bride who has just begun the role of homemaker but can barely boil water? The first thing you should know is that you need the proper pot to boil it in. Pew women have every kind of utensil there is but the novice homemaker seems most afflicted by the wrong pot at the wrong time syndrome. As a beginner cook she lacks the experience in choosing the utensil necessary for each type of cooking. Actually you should buy cookware like you buy clothes. You begin with a basic set, a ••wardro.be" of cookware that takes care of most of your needs. Performance Differs An important thing to know about cookware is that not all of it performs the same way. A cooking utensil must conduct heat from the source to the food. Different materials conduct the heat in different ways. ; Of materials commonly used for cookware, the best heat conductor is aluminum. It Rhodesia or Vietnam or Selma, Alabama?" (Always write to Dr. Crane in care of this newspaper, enclosing a long stamped, addressed envelope and 20 cents to cover typing and printing costs when you send for one of his booklets.) heats up evenly. all over so that the food is cooked from the sides and top as well as the bottom. There are no hot spots to cause scorching or cold spots to undercook. When cooking .for two, you should have two skillets--an eight - incher for omelets, hamburgers and bacon and eggs, and a 10-incher for frying chickens or skillet dinners. You should have saucepans in one and a half and two quart sizes. The one and a half quart will take one package of frozen vegetables. Dutch Oven Basic Utensil A three or four quart Dutch oven is another basic utensil. It is larger and heavier than a saucepan and has two handles for easier carrying. It is generally used for quantity cooking, like stews, soups and spaghetti. A two quart covered casse- . role is fine for one-dish meals. A s m a l l r o a s t i n g p a n , 1 2 x 9 inches, will handle most roasts except a large turkey. A six-cup coffee maker, a two or three quart tea kettle, a square cake pan and a pie pan--both nine inches--finish off a basic cookware set. Look for cookware with simple, uncluttered lines and level bottoms that sit firmly on the range. Aluminum utensils now have handsome decorator finishes and vivid colors for glamorous eye appeal and non-stick interiors to make cleaning a cinch. STARTING SEEDS INDOORS . * I A This young lady is using "milled" sphagnum moss for a seedstarting medium. It must be soaked, then squeezed until slightly moist. Sphagnum does not support disease -- a good reason for using "it. Two kinds of seeds go in one container. Labels are written first so they're not forgotten. m ITEM: Furniture arrangement is a matter of properly coordinating furnishings with family activities and the floor space for each room. After seeds have been broadcast over the surface, they are covered with a sprinkle of moss, then moistened to settle them. Since sphagnum moss contains no nourishment the seedlings, after sprouting, must be fed. Dilute liquid fertilizers are used, but only after the moss has been watered. . The world's fastest self-cleaning ovens. A new gas self-cleaning oven can get the messiest jobs done in half the time it takes the electric kind. And with gas. you can shorten the cleaning cycle even more if an oven isn't soiled enough to require the full treatment. But the best part about a new self-cleaning oven is the way it's packaged -- inside a new gas range. Because only a gas range gives you precision-controlled top-of-stove cooking. Or gas infrared broiling units--the kind that cook quickly... provide eye:appealing browning, too. Visit your Northern Illinois Gas office or appliance dealer and see why--when ovens come clean -- it's no contest. Gas wins in half the time. Northern Illinois Gas Company 0
