- PAGE 16- PLAINDEALER-WEDNESDAY. DECEMBER 12. 1973 SfcAKCH FOR TRUTH By Larry Swaim ONE LITTLE DRINK Dear Mr. Swaim, I realize that alcoholism is a real problem, and I certainly have no pat­ ience with those who get drunk regularly, but do you think a little social drinking, just in a fellowship situation, does any harm? Yes, I do believe it does. I'm sure you are not blind to the fact that one drink often leads to another. Regularly, I have people visit with me or write to me, asking me to send advice for a husband, wife or son who started as a social drinker and now has become a confirmed alcoholic. I per­ sonally have never known al­ cohol to be productive or any good at all, but I have known it to be highly productive of evil. At one stage in our lives, we may have perfect self- control, but when a problem, a difficulty, or even a success, comes our way, this may af­ fect our self-control, and what we were once able to control suddenly becomes our master. You also have a tremen­ dous responsibility for the welfare of your neighbors and of your own family. Your ex­ ample may lead them into a habit they cannot break. More than fifty percent of the fatal accidents on the highways are caused by drunken drivers. Our bodies are the temples of God. We must treat them with respect. The Bible says, "What, therefore, ye eat or drink, or whatsoever ye do, do all to the glory of God" [I Corinthians 10:31]. This is a command that no Christian can ignore. For a confidential and Bib­ lical answer to your question, write Larry Swaim, 985 Ponce de Leon Avenue, NE, Atlanta, Georgia, 30306. . . . m a d e w i t h l o w c o s t m e a t s Chicken and Rice Mexicana. Combine uncooked rice with the bright and spicy flavors of onion, green pepper, and chili powder and cook with chicken on top. A low-cost meal that's sure to please. f No matter how you figure, meat is the most expensive item on your dinner plate. Buy it on sale . . . that saves some. Or try using up every last bit. More money than you realize gets thrown away with scraps and trimmings. Or perhaps the best and most optimistic view is to accept the fact that meat is going to be ex­ pensive-- even the "economy" cuts -- and concentrate on good- tasting recipes . . . ones your family will like and will eat. After all, it's the food that's eaten that counts. A super- cheap dinner in a leftover con­ tainer in the refrigerator isn't saving anyone any money! These recipes utilize the less expensive kinds of meat . . . chicken, ground beef, luncheon meat and sausage. To each is added perhaps the most eco­ nomical budget-stretcher of all -- rice. Rice can cost as little as 2 to 3 cents per half-cup serv­ ing. It can be baked with, stir­ red into or served under a meat dish . . . making that meal more hearty, satisfying, and nutritious . . . AND more economical! One piece of chicken on a plate will not make a meal. But served on top of a fluffy mound of saucy rice . . . now the meal is complete. Rice can be varied, too . . . for a last minute meal q u i c k - c o o k i n g t y p e i s b e s t . Health-food enthusiasts think that the meal is "right on" if you use brown rice. Family members who prefer rice that cooks up into individual fluffy grains will want you to prepare rice from a package labeled parboiled or regular milled white rice. All of the different kinds of rice vary in cost. And a five- pound bag will be more eco­ nomical to buy than a one- pound package. Brown rice in a supermarket costs less than brown rice from a health food store. The best overall buy in rice is regular milled white rice, generally labeled "longjjrain" or "medium grain" on the package. But, more important, buy the type your family likes beat and try using it in the following rec­ ipes to stretch your food budget in a most pleasant manner.
