Honor Father On His Special Day With j
This Luscious Feather Weight Cake
FATHER’S special day should call
for a menu splurge, even if you
lave to scrimp points for the rest
>f the month. Whether the daddy
rou honor is an oldster or one of
the furloughing servicemen who is
tavoring a brand new title, you’ll
want to do your ’>est to cater to his
special he-man tastes.
Even if his pet steaks are un
available, you can muster up a fes
tive air of celebration by baking a
special featherweight sugarless gin
gerbread cake in his honor. Then
by investing a teaspoonful of sugar
and using the trick of cut-out let
ters, you can inscribe a special
Father’s Day inscription with the
aplomb of a master chef. Whether
the party is just for the family or
for all his cronies, be sure to brew
plenty of caffeinless coffee so that
every one can enjoy extra toasts
to father without pillow tossing
later on. For a delicious chilled
libation that father will be sure to
savor, ice the caffeinless coffee and
serve it with whipped and spiced
evaporated milk.
You won't need frosting to in
scribe your cake appropriately.
Just cut the words "To Father”
from the center of a lace paper
dotley. Then sift a little confec
tioners’ sugar through the cut-outs
and the lace of the doiley to give
I festive topping.

Competition
By GEORGE S.BENSON
President of Harding College
S e arcy. Arkansas
AMONG the modest newcomers
to American competition 25 years
ago was a product called rayon.
It was manufactured in the form
of yam, like wool and cotton
yarns. The price to weavers was
$2.80 a pound against 50for cot
ton yarn. Last year 55<J a pound
was the price of both rayon and
cotton yarns, and rayon was on
the market as a fibre, very much
like cotton fibre, but somewhat
less expensive.
Back in 1919 the American peo
ple bought less than 2 % as much
rayon as cotton. Last year the
ratio was 20% and rayon had
captured quite a slice of cotton’s
export demand. Europeans earn
less than Americans and they
pay more attention to a low price.
If it were not for the war, using
up all both industries can pro
duce, rayon would probably be
giving cotton some tough compe
tition.
Production WHEN the war
and Wages ends, these two big
industries are faced
with a struggle for sales in world
markets. It is anybody’s guess
now how the struggle will turn
out, but King Cotton is not
licked. The cotton industry is
still much bigger; still employs
more people than any other
American industry. Besides,
smart cotton men understand how
rayon made its remarkable gains.
- Rayon started out the Amer
ican way. It had relatively large
Investments in machinery- With
good tools, it turned out large
volumes of rayon per worker. On
a basis of big results from their
day’s work, the men who worked
drew good wages. At the same
time, large outputs of rayon per
man every day made it possible
for prices to go lower and sales
grow larger each year.
Mechanized WORKING people
Farm Work in America have a
right to live well.
When they earn good wages, they
do live well. Money they spend
is the very life blood of national
prosperity. But before they can
earn good pay they have to turn
out lots of merchandise per
worker. And in order to produce
goods in volume they must have
good tools. It was a successful
plan with rayon and it will work
with cotton.
People say there is a practical
cotton picker ready for introduc
tion after the war. It will cost
a lot more than one big sack and
a string for each member of a
share-cropper’s family. It will
likewise pick more cotton in a day
than they can pick in a week.
Efficient tools call for capital in
vestment. It means laying out
money, but efficient tools are
worth it.
People say we will see many
mechanical cotton choppers after
the war. It is not impossible.
This will increase the number of
acres of cotton per worker; make
more yield per day for every man.
The new farm machinery will cre
ate high wages and good living
for a lot of people. But rayon can
win its war with cotton if cotton
tries to stay in the field armed
with hoes and gunny-sacks.
