The Hammond Times Wednesday March 10, 1943 page 7 Government's Call Answered in Region Housewives Saving Fats! Out of the frying pan into the butcher shop seems to be the revised quotation used by patriotic Calumet region women. Answering the government's call for kitchen fats the women of the region are carefully saving all their cooking grease and taking it to the neighborhood butcher shops. They are heeding, however, the warning that fats which are satisfactory for seasoning or frying should be utilized instead of sold. Mrs. Carl PETERSON, 939 Sibley street, Hammond, said I save every scrap and have turned in about 20 pounds already. I started saving it as soon as I heard the government wanted it, and my son runs over to the butcher shop with it as quickly as I get it. I do save bacon grease to re-use though. Mrs. Arthur A. YEGGE, 52 Ruth street, Hammond, says she saves the grease from bacon for other frying, but that she definitely sells all other kitchen fats to the butcher. What unuseable grease I have the grocer gets, said Mrs. Harvey SEYBOLD, 12 West Webb street, Calumet City. and what can be used again I save. A Whiting restaurant owner, Mrs. Pearl CERNIAK, 2235 New York avenue, says she carefully saves every bit of grease that cannot be used again and takes it to her butcher. Mrs. Wesley C. GAULT, 239 West Warren street, Calumet City, said I don't have very much grease, but what I do have I certainly save and take to the butcher. After all, every ounce counts. I render out every bit of grease from every roast, Mrs. J. Ralston MILLER, 37 Waltham street, Hammond, told The Hammond Times. It usually means two pans to scour, but if it will help win the war it certainly is worth it. Housewives all over the country have been asked to seperate unuseable grease from garbage and either sell it to a meat dealer or place it in a pail beside the garbage can. _________________________________________________________________ Get today's hot entertainment gossip http://movies.msn.com/movies/hotgossip?icid=T002MSN03A07001
