CHATTERBOX
Mrs. Guy Flowers, Jr.
The Chatterbox is just bub-
bling over this week with news,
so if the news that you are look-
ing for isn’t in the paper this
week, be sure to look for it next
week, I’ve really enjoyed bring-
ing you the news and would like
to express my sincere gratitude
and thanks to those who have
been so helpful to me and also
give my thanks to the many many
people who have told me how
much they enjoy my writing and
the Chatterbox. I’m here to
serve all of you and try my very
best to please as many as I can.
Thanks again.
Now, for a bit of news that
will interest and please the
hearts of any child. Ilm not a
child, but this I'd like to see.
A cute little gadget is now on
the market that will delight
any small fry. It's a small-scale
incubator. A child can watch
an egg hatch into a real live
chick. Wouldn't it be wonderful
to hatch your own real live Eas-
ter chicks. This little incubator
has a plastic dome that lets you
see the entire hatching process.
The dome and base maintain the
proper heat and humidity. This
would be very educational for
small children. Gosh, I bet it
would be wonderful to hatch your
ovfn biddie.

RECIPE
FOR THE
WEEK
You’ll treasure this recipe for
Coffee Meringue Pie—that’s so
wondrously good your loved ones
will request it time and time
again. From the bottom up
there’s flaky pastry comple-
mented by a satin-smooth coffee
custard filling and clouds of
fluffy meringue. There’s a sur-
prise layer, too, of grated semi-
sweet chocolate between filling
and meringue.
Prepare the coffee filling first
and cool thoroughly before pour-
ing into the pastry shell—pack-
aged pudding and pie filling
speeds preparation time here,
and extra egg yolks make it
velvety smooth. While the fill-
ing cools, mix and bake the pas-
try shell, taking special care to
handle and mix the dough as
little as possible for delicate,
fork-tender pastry.
The glamorous swirls of me-
ringue are easy to achieve if you
follow these hints. Beat room
temperature egg whites just till
very soft peaks are formed, then
gradually add the sugar, a ta-
blespoonful at a time, beating
well after each addition until
peaks again form and the sug-
ar dissolves. After the last ad-
dition of sugar has been added,
beat until stiff glossy peaks form
that bend slightly when the beat-
er is lifted. Then pile onto the
chocolate-topped coffee filling,
spreading to the edge of the
pastry to seal completely. Cool
the pie away from drafts.
COFFEE MERINGUE PIE
V/t cups sifted enriched flour
Vt teaspoon salt
Vi cup shortening
3 to 6 tablespoons cold water
Coffee Filling
1 ounce semi-sweet chocolate,
shredded
Meringue
Sift together flour and salt.
Cut or rub in shortening until
mixture is crumbly. Sprinkle
with water, mixing lightly until
dough begins to stick together.
Turn out on lightly floured board
or pastry cloth and press dough
together. Roll out to circle Vs-
inch thick and fit into 9-inch
pie pan. Trim and flute edge.
Prick with fork to allow steam
to escape. Bake in very hot
oven (450 F.) 12 to 15 minutes,
or until lightly browned. Cool.
Turn cooled Coffee Filling into
cooled crust. Sprinkle chocolate
over filling. Cover with Merin-
gue sealing to edge of crust.
Return to moderate oven (350
F.) 12 to 15 minutes or until
meringue is lightly browned.
Cool completely before serving.
Coffee Filling
2 packages vanilla pudding
and pie filling mix
in our home were Mr. and Mrs.
Guy Flowers and grandaughter,
Dympthea, Mr. and Mrs.‘Eu-
gene Flowers and son Robert
and Mr. and Mrs. Gerald Flowers
all of Kountze. Now, I wonder
if they were really visiting me
or that beautiful new grandaugh-
ter of mine, Ginger Ann. It
seems that she has been getting
all of the attention lately. Of
course, I've always heard that
every crow thinks his is the
blackest and I just think she is
the mostest.
Mrs. Will Hooks and children,
Lavone, Evelyn and Norman,
visited in the home of her
daughter and son-in-law, Mr.
and Mrs, Guy Wayne Flowers
Sunday March 8.
2 tablespoons instant coffeer
powder
3 egg yolks, beaten
3 cups milk
Place pudding and pie, filing
mix and instant coffee powder
in saucepan. Gradually stir in
egg yolks and milk. Cook over
medium heat, stirring constant-
ly. Bring to a boil and cook un-
til mixture thickens. Cool. Pour
into baked pastry shell.
Meringue
3 egg whites
Vi teaspoon cream of tartar
V» teaspoon salt
6 tablespoons sugar
Beat together egg whites,
cream of tartar and salt until
soft peaks form. Gradually add
sugar, beating well after each
addition. Beat until meringue
stands in stiff peaks. Spread
over chocolate. Makes on 9-inch
pie.
NOTE: If you don’t sift and
in the absence of other direc-
tions, spoon flour directly from
container into one cup dry
measure, level off, then remove
two level tablespoonfuls, accord-
ing to USDA recommendations.
If self-rising flower is used,
omit salt.

Seventy Million
In January, 1914, just 10 years
and a few weeks after the
Wrights flew at Kitty Hawk, pilot
Tony Jannus took off in a Ben-
oist Airboat with one passenger
from St. Petersburg, Fla., and
flew across the bay to Tampa...
In 1963, reports the Air Trans-
port Association of America,
the nation's scheduled airlines
carried almost 70 million pas-
sengers. — Great Falls, Mont.

Among new products this week
Is this aerosol device called “Re-
buff,” offered by Animal Repel-
lents, Griffin, Ga. The manufac-
turer says this liquid will make
any human attacker very uncom-
fortable for at least 10 minutes
but will have no lasting adverse
effects. It’s similar to the compa-
ny’s dog-repellent called “Halt!”
but is yiuch weaker. The police
department of Saigon has ordered
3,600 units of “Rebuff,” the com-
pany says.
ISOMETRIC exercises—exerting
a force against an immovable
object—gets a new twist in equip-
ment and a muscle-training course
offered by W. J. Voit Rubber
Corp., Santa Ana, Calif., a sub-
sidiary of Ameridan Machine &
Foundry Co. A feature of the
AMF-Voit system is a calibrated
measuring gauge so that the per-
son can know if he, is exerting
this best effort. Besides the gauge,
the kit consists of a strap adjust-
able for each muscle or set of
muscles and a clamp that fits
over a door. An advantage of the
system, it’s claimed, is that it of-
fers weekend athletes selected
.exercises to help them improve
their performance in their sport,
whether1 it be skiing, tennis, swim-
ming, bowling or others.
ANY KID CAN pitch to a “Yogi
Berra”—the great catcher and
New York Yankee manager—this
spring in the form of an inflatable,
3-feet-high vinyl player. Its pur-
pose is to help youngsters learn
to pitch to the strike zone. The
child tries to throw the light-
weight ball, which comes with the
kit, into the pocket of the catch-
er’s glove. Offered by Ross Prod-
ucts Inc., New York, N.Y. •
INSTEAD of lifting a heavy,
hrlf-gallon container of milk from
the refrigerator to pour a glass
you can now go to the refrigera-
tor, turn on a spigot' and get your
glass filled that way. Container
Corp. of America has devised a
10-quart “Puritainer” package and
dispenser that occupies the same
space as three half-gallon con-
tainers yet keeps two-thirds more
milk on tap. The package consists
of a polyethylene plastic bag
within a corrugated paperboard
box.
YOU NO LONGER have to close
the match book cover before strik-
ing a match because these book
matches close automatically.
There’s a slit on top and the two
halves come together like an oys-
ter shell. They’re the first top-
opening paper book matches in
the United States according to

A NEW APPROACH in drip
coffee makers is introduced by
Coming Glass Works. A valve
flow assembly to control the flow
of heated water into the brewing,
basket is the unique feature of
this one. It permits water heated
in the lower server-bowl, made
of Coming’s familiar Pyroceram,
to be poured directly into the
brewing bowl. Dripping action
doesn’t start until after the valve
device is removed. The server,
which is the already-introduced
Coming Ware 2-quart teakettle,
is preheated by the water. The
upper bowl of the 8-cup product
is of clear, heat-resistant glass.
It has the black plastic lug han-
dles and a stainless steel top that
also fits the lower serving vessel.
ABOUT A THIRD of the four
million babies under a year old
in the United States—those four
months old or younger—are nour-
ished primarily by milk or an
infant formula. Mead Johnson
Laboratories, Evansville, Ind.,
says it now offers the first ready-
to-feed infant formula in dispos-
able glass bottles for home use.
The unit, called “Nursette,” is
filled with .“Enfamil,” a pre-
mixed and pre-diluted infant for-
mula. All the mother has to do is
twist off the bottle cap and put
on a conventional nipple of her
choice. It’s being test marketed
in Phoenix and Tucson, Arizona.
Soon it will be available nation-
wide.
THE BRIGHT clean cement
floor of your new garage soon
gets ugly from grease and oil
deposits; and kids have been
known to track it into the house.
Klean-Strip Co. Inc., Memphis,
Tenn., offers a new liquid cleaner
formulated to clean away these
deposits quickly. It’s called
“Driveway Cleaner.” Apply it to
the surface, work it into the area
with a stiff-bristled brush or
broom, scrub it later with a wet
broom and hose it well with
water.
SUCH HIGHLY flammable items
as drapes, wall paper, building
materials and shades can become
fire resistant if treated at the
time of their manufacture with a
flame retarder called “Fire-Tard,”
says the maker, National Starch &
Chemical Corp., New York, N.Y.
So treated, they will burn only
while they are in direct contact
with a fire source but will go out
as soon as the source is removed,
the company adds. It will retain
its properties even after being
soaked with water, it’s claimed.
Two fire-resistant chemicals are
used in its manufacture.
CARTOON-TYPE pictures of
animals, birds and people are
based on common shapes such as
the circle, elipse, parabola, etc.
Quick results are promised as the
beginner, old or young, with this
set called “Art-Ee-Fun” offered by
Embree Manufacturing Co., Eliz-
abeth, N.J. The set includes in-
struction book, a transparent plas-
tic sheet cut out so the learner
can trace the basic common
shapes by using it, sketch pad,
drawing pencil and drawing book,
complete for a dollar.
A NEW LOOK appears in the
latest product offerings of an old-
line company, Hebrew National
Kosher Foods Inc., Maspeth, N.Y.
canned and glass-jar foods for
“main dish” serving include
braised beef and rice, kosher meat-
balls in gravy, kosher meat balls
in spaghetti sauce, stuffed cab-
bate, potato pancakes and pure
beef hash.
THE AMATEUR sailor who
sails by night need worry no
longer over the shout, “light over-
board!” The new “Nite Hawk Lan-
tern” by ESB Ray-O-Vac, Phila-
delphia, Pa., can be recovered
promptly for it floats with lens up
Made of tough polyethylene it is
rust-proof and non-corrosive, has
a positive push-button switch, and

quick-connect battery leads which
snap into a 6-volt spring terminal
lantern battery.
EXTREMELY durable yet flat-
teringly sheer are the new Hanes
Cantrece Runless Sheerloc Seam-
less stocking developed by Hanes
Hosiery Mills Co., Winston-Salem,
N.C. A crimp which is the property
of the fiber rather than a mechan-
ically introduced quality is the
feature of Cantrece (fiber H) yarn.
The sheerloc construction prevents
runs in sheer seamless stockings.
IT’S UNLIKELY you’ll sleepily
drop your bottle of after-shave lo-
tion on the bathroom floor if it’s
the new “Burma Bey” offered by
Philip Morris. The battle , is de-
signed with sides flaring to the
palm of your hand and with a
wide-topped stopper-very easy to
hold on ot.
THAT STRIKING hat you see
on a woman may wind up as the
base for a telephone. It’s the kind
of thing turned out at telephone
center in New York, N.Y., which
specializes in antique and odd de-
signs for telephone1 bases. You
can even get one in mink.
WHY PUSH a broom when water
power can sweep off your drive-
way, walk or patio? Melnor Indus-
tries Inc., Moonachie, N.J., offers
its “De Luxe Aqua Broom,” an
aluminum tube which attaches to
your hose. The water spurts in
a concentrated, broom-like gush
from an outlet mounted above a
pair of 3-inch wheels.
A PILLOW THAT can’t pack
down, lump or sag, it’s claimed,
is offered by B. F. Goodrich Co.
made of special Latex foam rub-
ber that has no “skin” or sur-
face tension, this “Blue Heaven”
pillow has 2,816 special vents
which allows it to “breathe,” and
cradles the head without bounce
or resistance, the company says.
