CHOCOLATE HINTS
_ For besl results use the chocolale producl called for in Ihe recipe.
When necessary 10 substitule, 3 tablespoonfuls Hershey's Cocoa
plus J tablespoonful fot = 1 square Hershey's Baking Chocolate.
-D nol substilute Hershey's Baking Chips or Milk Chocolale for
Hershey's Baking Chocolate in recipes.
-Chocolate easily absorbs odors from other foods. Therefore, wrap
lightly and slore in a cool, dry place (not over 780 F.l.
-Bloom, the gray film Ihol appears on chocolate, occurs when
chocolole is exposed to varying temperolures. It does not afect
the laste or quo lily of the chocolate.
_Chocolale scorches easily, therefore, mel! Hershey's Baking Chaco
late or Baking Chips in the lop of a double boiler over simmering
water or in a small saucepon set in a pan of hot water.
-Melt Hershey's Milk Chocolate in the top of a double boiler over
hoi, not boiling, water. High temperatures cause mi l k chocolate 10
sti fen.
-Beal hal chocolale beverages with a rolory bealer until foamy to
prevent formation of a skin and to enhance flavor.
-Prevent skin from farming on Ihe top of cooked puddings and pie
fillings by pressing waxed paper onto surface before cooling.
-Accurately measure Hershey's Cocoa by lightly pocking cocoa inlo
measuring cup and leveling with a spatula.
-For even consistency, shake Henhey's Chocolate Flavored Syrup
before opening the can.
_It is desirable to store on open con of Hershey's Chocolate
Flavored Syrup in the refrigerator. Should it become thicker than
desired, place can in lukewarm waler and stir.
_Chocolate deflates slifly beaten egg white mixlures, so fold in
carefully-just until blended.
_ For chcolate cuds, draw blade of vegetable parer over smooth
side of a slightly worm block of Hershey's Baking Chocolate or
Speciol Dark Chocolate Bar.
-In recipes, Hershey"s Baking Chocolate, cut into pieces, should be
broken into pieces about the size of almonds.
-When melting chocolate for coating and dipping candy centers,
be sure all utensils are completely dry. Also, when adding a
shortening t the chocolate to make it more liquid, use only vege
table shortening, not butter or margarine.

Remember When
e Early 9
The 7930'5. A decade of mixed blessings. Herbert
Hoover WIS about fo v(lwle Ihe Whife HOllsl to be
rep/aced by Presidmt-elect Roosevelt. The popllia/ioll of
the L11Ii/ed Sla/es was approximately 123 millioll
people, md 53 millioll of tlleIl! still lived 011 farms.
Unemployment was creeping upwards to 25% of the
labor force {ui, for those who worke. tIJI' hourly
wage was 44a. Ecollomicnl/y we were ill (HII of the
worst periods 0/ our lives, poiitiw/ly we were il {
tllrt/Wi[, and socially we looked aboll for filly pall(lcm
that wOllld temporarily remove ollr fears.

Life in the United 51.ies in the early 1930's was in a
state of chaos, but the optimistic American rem.ined dedicated
to thc hope thai "things would gel better." In the interim,
it was necessary to "make do" while waiting for prosperity
to come from "just around the corner." For onethird of the
nation, necessities meanl food, shelter and a job; for the
rem"ining two-thirds it meanl a home, me,! on the table,
car, <1 radio .d regular Saturd.y night trip to the movies.
After the movies, it might have m(,mt a jaunt to a local
tavern. Although prohibition h,d been in effect for D years,
the absolute curt,ilment of an established social custom Yb
just too unwieldy to enforce. In the early 1930's, prohibition
was to have run its course, and the 18th Amendment was
about to be repealed, ushered a!ong with the tune of "Happy
Days Are Here Ag.in." For the Government, repea! of the
"18th Amendment was a necessity needed to generate revenue
for the Federa! co(ers.
\
For the average American, repeal
served indiCitor Ihil things were possibly getting better
in the home.

The home in the e.uly 1930's ranged anywhere from .
two room walk-up, with running w.ter and sporadic coal
heating, to a r.mbling 5-bedroom Victorian, that was passed
down through the family. For the most part, however, the
,lYerage home consisted of 6 rooms, .1 bath, a one-car det.1ched
garage, at .1 cost of Mound 52,50. Even though the gar.ge
Glme with the house, it m.Y or m.lY not h.lYe contained .11
.lutomobilc. IF it did, it w.s anything from . 1925 Chevrolet
that was five years old .md had cost 5825 new, to a 1930
Ford coupe th.lt cost $60. AmeTic.l in 1930 was tightening
her purse strings, ,md a new caT every other year was
considered luxury for only the very rich. The garages in
many homes, in fact, guraged no CM .t all and masquer"ded
dS . food cellM for home-jarred fruits .md vegetables.
Preparing ,md preerving peiches, cherries, pe.rS and string
bedns was done not only for the ple,sure it g.lve the
homemaker, but bec.Iuse "store-bought" fruits .nd vegetables
were becoming much too expensive. (f the gM.lge W.1S not

doors, American walnut finish with Ausir.lli.lIl laccwood

higher). Through the brown box in the living room c,l Ine the
voices of "Amos 'n' Andy" in their nightly -S-minute sketch
(Monday-Friday 7:00 EST Nne Red Network), the melodic
chirps of the "Songbird of the South," Kilte Smith ("Hello
