Here's Health .. .
While the banana family is
native to southeastern Asia, the
big, delicious banana which
reaches our produce counter to-
day is a Middle American dis-
covery. It is the descendant of
a "sport", discovered on the
island of Martinique in 1836, by
a Jamaican planter named Pou-
yat.
A "sport" is a new variety of
plant which just happens. No
one knows why or how. When
M. Pouyat spotted this hand-
some fruit, he promptly dug up
the plant and took it back to
Jamaica. He also named it
after himself, the Banana Pou-
yat. The name didn't stick,
however, for some time in the
last 127 years the name was
changed to "Gros Michel."
The banana is not only noted
for the pleasure it gives the con-
sumer, but for its high nutri-
tional value. Banana carbohy-
drates are virtually all in the
form of fruit sugars which are
96 to 99.5 per cent utilizable
by the body. The bland,
smooth flesh of bananas is ideal
for persons of all ages from the
infant to the very old. And the
banana fits ideally into either
a low sodium or low fat diet.
BANANA CHOCOLATE CAKE
(JAMAICA)
2-1/4 cups sifted all-purpose
flour
1 teaspoon double-acting bak-
ing powder
3/4 teaspoon salt
3/4 cup shortening
3/4 teaspoon soda
1-1/2 cups sugar
2 large eggs
2 squares (2 ounces) unsweeten-
ed chocolate
2 teaspoons pure vanilla ex-
tract
1 cup mashed bananas, (about
3-1/2)
3/4 cup sour milk
Viennese Mocha Frosting
Sift together flour, baking
powder and salt. Set aside.
Mix together shortening and
soda. Gradually blend in sugar.
Beat in eggs, one at a time.
Melt chocolate over hot water
and stir into sugar mixture
along with pure vanilla ex-
tract. Add half the sifted dry
ingredients and bananas. Stir
in remaining flour alternately
with sour milk. Turn into 2
well -greased lightly floured
9 -inch round layer cake pans.
Bake in a preheated moderate
oven (375 degrees F.) 30 min-
utes or until a cake tester in-
serted in the center comes out
clean. Cool in pans 10 minutes
Turr. out on wire racks to finish
cooling. Spread Viennese Mo-
cha Frosting between layers
and over top and sides. This
cake is m pre moist and is of
better flavor if it is made 1 to
2 days before serving.. Yield:
One 9 -inch cake.
VIENNESE MOCHA FROSTING
1 cup sugar
3 tablespoons water
2 large egg whites
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/3 cup butter or margarine
1 square (1 ounce) unsweetened
chocolate, melted
1-1/2 teaspoons pure vanilla
extract
1 teaspoon instant coffee
Place sugar, water, egg
whites and salt in the top of a
double boiler. Place over hot
water and beat 7 minutes or
until mixture stands in stiff
peaks. Remove from heat,
cover with a damp cloth and
let stand until completely cold.
Soften butter or margarine and
blend in melted chocolate and
pure vanilla extract and coffee.
Fold, about 1/4 of the mixture
at a time, into the cooked
frosting, being sure it is well
blended. Spread between two
9 -inch layer cakes and over
top and sides.
Yield: Sufficient frosting for
tops and sides of two 9 -inch
layers.

beat them until foamy. Add
cream of tartar and continue
beating until egg whites stand
in stiff peaks. Beat in sugar, 2
tablespoons at a time, and pure
vanilla extract. Continue beat-
ing until egg whites form very,
very stiff peaks. (This step is
important for successful merin-
gues.) Trace 3 -inch circles on
brown paper with a pencil.
Spread each with the beaten
egg whites 1/4 -inch thick.
With a spoon or pastry bag,
build a border around each to a
height of 1-1/2 inches, leaving
the center unfilled. Place
paper on a baking pan. Bake in
a preheated very slow oven
(250 degrees F.) 1-1/4 hours.
Turn off heat and cool metin-
gues in the oven 30 minutes.

with Banana Cream. Garnish
with a sprinkle of ground nut-
meg.

dessert. If desired, top with
vanilla ice cream. Yield: 6
servings.
GIVE BASIC EQUIPMENT
The minimum home refer-
ence works are a dictionary and
an encyclopedia; and a world
atlas also is helpful. The en-
cyclopedia is not only valuable
as a reference aid for school
reports and homework assign-
ments, but as a source of life-
long interests.
A child fascinated by a
brief article on chemistry, for
instance, may be stimulated to
do further reading on his own.
A boy or girl who had never
liked reading may turn over a
new leaf --and then another and
another—after finding an entry
on a subject which interests
him.
