An excellent way to tempt appetites and brighten menus is with
c colorful platter of chilled, marinated vegetables. It takes the
place of both vegetable and salad - and it is a perfect accom-
paniment for meat, poultry or seafood cooked indoors or grilled
outdoors over coals.
With the aid of ready-to-use frozen vegetables, it is a simple
matter to prepare an assortment of vegetables which offers vari-
ety in shape, color, texture and flavor. Combined for the illus-
trated platter are frozen lima beans, cut green beans, whole baby
carrots, asparagus spears, cauliflowerets and artichoke hearts.
The classic dressing for chilled vegetables is Vinaigrette, the
tangy mixture of oil and vinegar seasoned with salt, pepper and
whatever additional flavorings or ingredients are preferred.
VINAIGRETTE DRESSING
l i cup olive or salad oil
12 cup vinegar
1 teaspoon salt
Dash freshly-grated black pepper
1 small onion, minced
1 tablespoon chopped chives
1 tablespoon chopped parsley
1 tablespoon capers
Optional ingredients (see below)
Combine ingredients in jar or bowl; shclte or beat until well
mixed. Pour over cooked, drained frozen vegetables. Toss lightly
lo coat evenly. Chill several hours or until ready to serve.
Vary the dressing by adding one or more of the following: 1
hard-cooked egg, chopped; 2 tablespoons chopped pimiento; 2
tablespoons frozen chopped green pepper. 2 tablesDoons choo-
ped sweet pickle.
, Makes about 1V* cups.
Garris*.n said tho estimate'!
was compiled on the basis of j
past experience and the pro !
sent trend of traffic deaths. 1
Deaths so far during 1967 are
running about six percent a
head of the same period for
1966.

special emphasis program de-
signed to locus attention on
the added dangers of holiday
travel, will lie placed in effect

day, July 4th. Traffic fatali-

DPS throughout the period,
and the totals will he announc-
ed officially three times daily

Also, as a part of the DPS
operation, additional personnel

“Most traffic accidents are
made even more tragic by the
fact that with the proper
awareness they could have
been avoided,’’ Garrison stated.
"Too often even the best driv-
er may let his attention wan-
der . . . and a fatal accident
can be the result.
“If each driver will assume
the responsibility for his ac-
tions each time he takes the
wheel of a ear, and if he will
observe the traffic laws and

Ihe road, ihe number of aeci-
denis could he materially re-
