It all the time so that it won't scorch, but so all the lumps will be melted out. Pour the peanuts in and stir well. Pour this onto buttered plates and leave until cool enough to break. OMA TURPIN, .

The contests announced today are the second group of the third big point contest which will run for six months. During these six months any boy or girl may pile up Just as high scores as he can. Then at the close of the contest, the four having the highest scores will be given the signal honor of having their names engraved on our beautiful honor roll. The poem contest this week is for verses about "1930." The year will be but a few days old when these poems are published; it will lie clean and white in front of you. What are you going to do with it? The letter contest has been abolished and we want editorials on any subject you choose. The New Year might offer some suggestions. The drawing contest is for a calendar for January. It wants to be something neat and pretty that other children can put out and color. We want to make it rather small, so do not make your drawings too large. Use black ink and bristol board or heavy white paper. The continuous contests are for stories, boys' scrap book, girls' scrap book. Interesting facts, puzzles, nonsense rhymes, recipes and comical This Looks Simple, But You Try It This is a simple looking feat thai will be found impossible of accomplishment. You might get the chil-dr- en to try it some time when you want to start something jolly. Stand sidewise against a wall with your left cheek, heel and leg touching the wall, and then try to raise your right leg. It sounds simple, doesn't lt?.Try it.

Even though you had to write these verses when there were still a good many more than ten days to wait, you all got right into the spirit of the occasion and Sent In rhymes that just seemed to tingle with impatience and good nature. We do wish we had more space for poems. Nearly every week we have to leave out some excellent material. And folks like poems. One old gentleman that was doing some painting for us a man you wouldn't think would read much poetry said one day, "My, those little folks write fine poems, don't they? I always read their poems whether I read anything else or not." But we do have to limit our numbers some way, so if good things are left out it can't be helped. First place, 100 points, went to Herald Naomi Shore, Murray; 50 points were awarded to both Knight Master Janet Higgs, Bingham, and Esquire Lois Milton, Green River; 25 points went to Lael Woolsey, Salt Lake, and 25 to Esquire Wanda Pack, Bountiful; 10 points were awarded to Mona Snyder, Park City. ..
