Combine cabbage, green onion and cucumber with hard-cooked eggs, salad dressing and seasonings to produce a green and gold slaw. Or, use a sour cream dressing to mix with cabbage, canned beets, onion and celery. For a most unusual treatment of a cabbage salad, pack a salad mixture of strips of ham and pieces of red apple, with a mayonnaise salad dressing into a ring mold and turn out on a plate, Fill the centre with a mixture of grated carrots, peanuts, and mayonnaise, A "Hot cabbage salad is another idea: cook coarsely shredded cabbage for a few minutes before mixing with a hot salad dressing. A hot potato salad is also in the limelight during cold days. Mix hot, freshly boiled, diced potatoes with French dressing, chopped onion and celery and seasonings. A cold potato salad remains of course, one of the old favorites. Combine diced cooked potatoes with sweet pickle, green onion, chopped celery and green pep- per, hard-cooked eggs and seasonings. Mix with a salad dressing or mayonnaise. For variety, add cottage cheese or crumbled bacon. AppleS make delicious salads with shredded carrots and nuts or raisins. Canned tomatoes can be used in place of fresh tomatoes as a side salad or in combination with other vegetables.

Mrs. R. Batten announced that 15 pounds of used greeting cards had been sent to Brazil and 15 pounds to Taiwan. Mrs. E, McRoberts led the devotional period with the theme Peace among Nations. She read Psalm 67 and in a commentary said "God is at work for Peace and it can come in our time." Mrs. M. Dearing spoke on Cuba giving an account of conditions there from 1953 to the present. In 1953 the Americans used Cuba as a playground and a source of quick profits. They controlled 85 percent of the exports of Cuba where seven hundred thousand peasants were out of work. The Catholic religion centred in the cities and became associated with the Government, The Protestants were supported by the Americans and were associated with graft, Women were slaves, hostesses or prostitutes and were uneducated. In 1953 Castro, a young lawyer, tried to start a Revolution but failed and was exiled to Mexico. There he met Chi Chavaro who was trying to improve the lot of his people. In 1959 Castro finally over- threw Batista and set about to change Cuba. He angered United States by nationalizing Industries but cleaned out vice and gambling. Land was taken from the rich and divided among the peasants. Education became a right and was free. People attended school part- time and worked part-time. Health coverage was given to all people, Here the stress is on prevention rather than cure. Women have been given an opportunity to get an education even in remote areas. The revolution in Cuba has been a success in all material areas but not in religious mat- ters. However, there is more flexibility today. In conclusion Mrs. Dearing mentioned that third world countries who are restless today are turning to communist countries for help and posed the question "Is Democracy on its way out? Is Christianity dying?" Christians should stand and be counted. Sorority pick slate Alpha Pi members of Beta Sigma Phi Sorority met Tuesday at the home of Marion McCarter.
