Mrs. Barnara McGrath, foods specialist at the University of Illinois, says cookies have a better keeping quality than cakes and are quick and easy to bake. Just use your favorite recipe -- the one that always turns out so well -- and make a big batch of dough. Divide it into several portions and dress each batch up differently. Whether you make drop, bar, rolled or refrigerator cookies -- there are many ways to vary the basic recipe. Add different flavois to the dough by flavoring it with any kind of chopped dried or candied fruit, chopped nuts or chocolate chip. Or you might add such spice as cinnamon, mace or nutmeg. Or try to get variety With different frostings and >. toppings There are those • you dm^put on cookies before' baking and those that you can put on afterwards. From lemon-flavored frosting to coffee-flavored ones, there is a wide array" to change the appearance and taste of your basic dough. Mrs. McGrath says to keep the size and thickness of the cookies on one cookie sheet alike. It will help them to bake more evenly and satisfactorily. If you don't have the time to cut out individual cookies? make cookie bars. Bake the dough in a flat pan, and cut it when still warm into strips or aquars. If you use small pan, you might even bake the cookies at the same time as a casserole dish. Keep Bome ice-box or refriger ator dough ready to slice and bake. The dough will keep well for over a week. And fresh cookies will always be a special treat. Illinois farmers are starting CKI a "Get Out the Vote" campaign to get every eligible downstate voter to the polls Nov. 2, Charles B. Shuman, president of the Illinois Agricultural association, has announced. Plans for local campaigns to be carried on by county Farm Bureau organizations were formed at a series of meetings the last two weeks, Shuman said. The IAA is the statewide Farm Bureau organization. The IAA and the county Farm Bureaus are sponsoring such a citizenship campaign because the success of a democracy certainly depends upon a high proportion of the population who care enough to participate in government and civic affairs, Shuman declared. "Less than half of the eligible voters normally vote in elections," he said. "Is it possible that these non-participants and non-voters do not care if our democracy is replaced by a socialist or communist dictatorship, or are they merely careless ? "Many governments and civilizations have failed because the people have been unwilling to accept responsibility for their government," Shuman continued. "There seems to be an alarming 'I don't care - let someone else do it' philosophy developing in - the minds of many people. This manifests itself in the tendency to turn ^to government for trie sohition ^of man^eeoricnrtic and social problems Which 'we once considered to be the responsibility of the individual. "We in America believe that our particular type of democracy gives the greatest opportunity 1Q, all citizens for improvement and progre."". -v "However, many Americans have not yet recognized that;Msgs|vj unchanging law of society is that as opportunity increases for the individual, his responsibilities to his fellow citizens also becomes greater. One way to fulfill this obligation is to vote Nov. 2," Shuman said. Previous "Get Out the Vote" drives sponsored by the IAA and the county -Farm • Bureaus have increased participation among rural voters In former years, according to Shuman. The county Farm Bureaus will s&zk the cooperation of local service clubs and other civic groups in the vote campaign. Renewed interest i^ 'local, county, state and national elections must be developed if our present form of government [;,is to be retained, Shuman concluded.
