Ad, â€"AAdministration By ELMORE a M. MURPHY M In spite of the best intentions in the world it takes no mind reader to see that the committee for the moâ€" ment has reached an impasse. As Commissioner Sharp in a recent inâ€" terview promised a conclusive reâ€" port by the committee within 30 days and as he has stated on every occasion both on and off the record that the committee would lean over backwards in protecting property rights of the citizens of ALL parts of the city from harm, real or imagâ€" inary, it also takes no Houdini to make a pretty fair guess on the site to be selected.

Highland Park, 1linois, December 1&::â€"‘:4 Unless the ear we have had to the ground in recent weeks has become a bit deaf, we can safely say here that when the incinerator committee makes its report there will be no storming of the City Hall council meeting room, and if perchance there may be some of us who believe that the committee should have taken the bull by the horns and renâ€" dered a verdict strictly on the merits of the case, it will help to remember that the job was an exceedingly deliâ€" cate one at best, and if we were "put up against the gun," so to speak, could we honestly say we would have done otherwise. Lake County, Illinois, on said date at ten o‘clock A.M. for the purpose of having said the undersigned Administratrix of the Eeâ€" tate of Frank J. Merriman, deceased, has fixed upon Tuesday, the 6th day of Feb. A. D. 1940, as the return day for the hearing of all claims against the above named Estate.

Most recipes for upside down cake stress a moderate or siow oven, which means either 350 or 300 degrees, the lower temperature naturally requiring a tonger period. When a modern gas range does the baking, its heat control maintains such an accurate even temperature that the cake bakes perfectly without watching or turning in the oven. Cooked dried fruits make ezceilent and inexpensive toppings, using one or two or a miscellany of apricots, prunes or figs, pears, nectarines and apple rings. A delicious combination is achieved by using haives of canned pears filled with halves of canned figs, flling the spaces between the pears with figs cut in a side to 8t Tfl'-n-ulnuuubn-uhummu'l-l offer a different fruit favor every time or a combination of fiavors. Both pineapple and apricot are favorites, but have you tried sliced canned pesches? These add delicacy to the cake {llustrated above.
