Missionary Organizations Hold Meetings In Fairmont The Electric Food Mixer RALEIGH Many of the new small appliances are exciting and glamorous, but the electric mixer remains one of the most popular "work horses" in the kitchen. The mixer is a real time and arm saver. It does the work, but you, the operator, can do the managing.

An electric food mixer is a motor driven appliance, reminds Thelma Hlnson, extension home management specialist, North Carolina Slate University. Three types are available- portable, stand and stationary. The portable is a compact hand-held mixer consisting of mixer head and beaters. It can be used in any bowl or utensil. The stand mixer has a removable mixer head so the mixer can be used either on its stand or held by hand like a portable.

On the stationary mixer the mixer head is permanently mounted on a stand. A portable mixer should be lightweight, well balanced and comfortable to hold. It should have a steady heel rest and should be angled so the mixture on Hie baaters drains into the bowl. A permanently lubricated motor saves periodic i i Three speeds provide ample power to do everything from mixing pie crust to whipping cream, but cannot cope with heavy doughs or batters. The stand mixer is more convenient to use.

Since the user does not have to hold the unit during mixing operations, it is ideal for longtime mixing tasks. An easy-to-read mixing chart will give suggested speeds for various mixing operations, eliminating guesswork. A governor- controlled motor ensures the correct power for all mixing jobs; beaters do not slow down when mixing heavy doughs or batters such as fruitcakes, candies and cookies. With a stationary mixer the bowl stands still, and the beating device travels around inside it. A stationary mixer is the most expensive; the stand type, next; and a portable, the least expensive.

There is a wide span of prices for each type. Choose a mixer that is going to serve individual needs best, one that is well designed, engineered and produced by a reputable manufacturer.

Leader talks on "Frozen Pre- Family Togetherness RALEIGH Having the family together is almost a rare occurrance these days. Father's work takes him dway from home and mother's work, with the help of automation, is done in time for her to participate in club and community events, reminds Frances Jordan, extension family relations specialist, North Carolina State University.

Improved transportation facilities enable parents and children to get places faster and to engage in more activities in one single day. Commercial recreation is another innovation that may keep the family from getting together for relaxation and socialization as they did in "the good old days." Under these circumstances, we may need a new interpretation of the words "family togetherness," Miss Jordan notes. Sociologist Earl Koos believes the three components of family togetherness are: (1) a i each family member know his own role in the family and accept his role and those of others; (2) having the family know what its goals are and moving in the direction of achieving those goals, and; (3) having a means of communicating with each other at all times. Therefore, a new interpretation of a i togetherness would be a feeling of unity or oneness, even when a i members are not in the home. Under these circumstances, we need to use our communication efforts with other family members to decide what we really want as a family and how we can achieve these aims, Miss Jordan states.

We also need to convey to our mate and children the feeling they are accepted family members and help them understand the responsibilities they have to the family. In addition, we need to help all family members realize they are loved as individuals, wherever they are.
