J ust when you think you’ve heardor seen everything, something newcrosses the airwaves. This time, it’sa whopper of a lie and, to most every-

one, a justifiable one.At this point in my ‘young’ (hmmm)

life, it is hard to imagine that a womanhas lived to be 104 years old! She is aMichigan woman who is hard of hearingand legally blind. The big lie was when hergranddaughter tried to sign her on to Face-book. She could not call up the year of herbirth. It seems that if you are over 99, youcan’t go onto Facebook. So, this dear ladyclaimed the maximum age of 99 years old.This brought the Facebook CEO into thepicture. Ms. Joseph’s granddaughter, whostarted trying to set her up on Facebookthree years ago has tried to contact theCEO to have this changed but to no avail.

Far back in my mind, I think I learnedthat it’s all a matter of numbers. It is pos-sible that 99 is the max. If you know this tobe the case, write me at Seniors Today.

Meanwhile, Ms. Joseph has spent manyhours searching for people, places, andthings. She now has 109 Facebook friendsand 84 posted pictures. This act of commu-nicating keeps her young and in touch withrelatives and friends of many years. Hergranddaughter said, “I would love to seeher real age on Facebook. I mean in Aprilshe’s going to be 105. It’s special.”

Another Problem Seniors Face: Banking

“Dear Sir: I am writing to thank you for bouncing

my check with which I endeavored to paymy plumber last month. By my calcula-tions, three nanoseconds must have elapsedbetween his presenting the check and thearrival in my account of the funds neededto honor it. I refer, of course, to the auto-matic monthly deposit of my entire pension,an arrangement which, I admit, has beenin place for only eight years.”

The letter goes on and ultimatelyends with this: “As they say, imitation isthe sincerest form of flattery. Let me levelthe playing field even further. When youcall me, press buttons as follows:”

“Immediately After Dialing, Press TheStar (*) Button For English. ”

“Press #1 To make an appointment tosee me. ”

“Press #2. To query a missing pay-ment.”

Press #3. To transfer the call to my liv-ing room—in case I am there.

Press #4 To transfer the call to my bed-room—in case I am sleeping.

Press #5. To transfer the call to my toi-let in— case I am attending to nature.

Press #6. To transfer the call to mymobile phone if I am not at home.

Press #7. To leave a message on mycomputer—a password to access my com-puter is required. Password will be com-municated to you at a later date to thatAuthorized Contact mentioned earlier.

Press #8. To return to the main menu. Press #9. To make a general complaint

or inquiry. The contact will then be puton hold, pending the attention of my auto-mated answering service.

Press #10. This is a second reminder topress * for English. While this may, onoccasion, involve a lengthy wait, upliftingmusic will play for the duration of the call.”

“Regrettably—but again following yourexample—I must also levy an establish-ment fee to cover the setting up of this newsystem. May I wish you a happy, if ever soslightly less prosperous New Year? YourHumble Client. Thank you.”

Remember: Don't make old people mad.We don't like being old in the first place,so it doesn't take much to tick us off.

Two other things… don’t ring the door-bell if you don’t know the resident and don’tcall an unfamiliar phone number. So there!It’s getting more difficult to pull the woolover the eyes of senior citizens. ST

Assisted Living For Alzheimer’s

& Dementia Patients

Think Alzheimer’s Care is Expensive?… Think Again!

An apple a day keeps the doctoraway? Research shows an as-pirin a day may do the same.How often have you heard about

chewing an aspirin if you feel the symp-toms of a heart attack? If it’s that criticalto get the medication to your system, isn’tit as important to know you are taking asafe dose? Good news—there is a simpleblood test that is available to aid your doctorin assessing response to aspirin.

For many Americans, a “baby” aspirin isprescribed—81 mg—for ongoing preventa-tive care post–cardiac procedure or even asa precautionary way to help pre-vent stroke. In fact, the USPSTF(United States Preventive ServicesTask Force) encourages aspirin in-take for men aged 45–79 years tohelp prevent myocardial infarctions(also known as heart attacks) andwomen aged 55–79 years becauseof a potential benefit of stroke pre-vention. Always check with yourphysician before embarking on anaspirin regimen.

Since it’s known there are potential sideeffects with aspirin use, particularly stom-ach upset due to potential bleeding risks,you will want to be sure you are getting theoptimal effect with the lowest dose possi-ble. The VerifyNow System is a product thattests for aspirin—providing the physicianinformation on platelet reactivity. Aspirinand drugs like clopidogrel (the generic form

of the branded drug Plavix) are anti-plateletmedications designed to prevent the bloodcells from sticking together. The medicationscan help prevent a clot, which can lead to amore serious cardiovascular event. Stud-ies show that up to one in three patients’platelets do not respond appropriately. Onlyyour physician can check to see how yourplatelets are reacting and make decisionsabout your care.

As with other medications, some peo-ple often wonder if their medications arehaving the desired effect. Stop wonder-ing, and start asking about a chance to see

how your platelets are responding.The next time you visit your doc-tor, and you are asked for a bloodsample to measure your level ofcholesterol, or the technician mea-sures your blood pressure, you mightwant to ask about the VerifyNowAspirin Test as well. Like thoseother routine measurements, thistest is also available nationwide inhospitals and doctor’s offices.

Your health care provider wants to pro-vide the best protection possible to you ora loved one and so anyone on anti-platelettherapy should be tested.

Up to one in three patients’ plateletsmay not respond adequately to the pre-scribed therapy. A test to measure theindividual patient’s response is widelyavailable. Ask your healthcare providerabout anti-platelet therapy. ST

It’s not just our imagination… theolder we get the more funeralswe attend. An elderly man oncesaid to us, ‘I have no friends…

they are all dead.’ He had simply out-lived most everyone he knew.

Just in the last five months we haveexperienced the loss of 10 people; somefamily, others friends, but all signifi-cant in their own way.

Over the years we have attended,and participated in, a lot of memorialservices… some very touching, a fewvery strange, and one or two even embar-rassing. We have attended funerals forthe unborn and the newborn, the veryyoung and the very old. We have attendedfunerals that were actually a real cele-bration of life… where funny memorieswere exchanged… and where peoplewere honored for having lived, I meanreally lived. We have also attended funer-als where the police had to intervene infamily disputes.

We attended a memorial that wastotally new to us and very impressive.It was indeed a celebration of life. Allof the elements of a memorial werethere, but in a very different form. It wascalled a ‘Paddle Out.’

The deceased, a long time friend andone of the really ‘good guys’ was beinghonored by his family and many friendsin a way very fitting of his life. Chriswas a ‘beach boy’ in every sense of theword. He had spent his life as a life-guard, boater, and surfer. Oh… he hada ‘real job’ alright, but its purpose wasonly to support his life’s love… thewater and its environs.

Chris was one of those guys whowere ‘around’ when you needed himand that had built a multitude of friend-ships. He could ‘go with the flow’ andseemed never out of place… yet henever sought the spotlight or first place

in line. He could out-swim, out-rescue,anybody on the beach, but you’d neverhear that from him.

So how did his wife and friendschoose to honor him in death… on thewater, naturally! We gathered at theDaytona Beach pier. The Beach Patroltrucks and drivers were lined up in thedignified way that First Respondershonor their team. A family friend hadsupplied flowers for all… literally, bagsof roses and other varieties. Familieswere on the roof deck of a beach restau-rant and the rails were lined with folksholding cameras… including more thanone TV station.

The actual Paddle-Out was joyouswith about 40 surfers participating andwith Chris’ wife on a jet ski. All the ele-ments of the life he loved were pre-sent. Surfers left in single launch untilthey reached the end of the pier wherethey joined hands in a circle. Words ofmemory, fondness, and cheers echoedacross the waters as ashes mixed withthe water and flowers, and as tearsstained cheeks of even the toughestamong them. When the ceremony wasover, Chris’ wife symbolically walkedashore alone as the surfers paddledback to shore where they continued thestories of good times.

No one is ever ready to let a loved onego, or bid farewell to a friend, but if everthere was a symbolically excellent wayto exit, the Paddle-Out was a surfer'sjoyous wave goodbye… and oddlyenough, made for a beautiful day. ST

Politics and wars are interesting,but I’m tired of all of the gloatingand dooms day stuff so I thoughtI’d write about fishing.

This one involves a spring-feed deep-bottomless lake in Jackson County. A fel-low went fishing one day and was deter-mined he was going to catch a large cat-fish the locals had named Big Blue. Thestory goes that ol’ Blue weighed in excessof 200 pounds and his mouth was as bigas a five-gallon bucket opening.

This fellow had decided he had the keyto catching this elusive gigantic catfish.He rigged up a 1,000-pound test cord thatwas 200 feet long with a large hook, andstuck a whole chicken on it. Several peo-ple had nearly been drowned trying to catchol’ Blue by conventional methods, so thisfellow rolled up some of the cord and tiedthe loose end to the back bumper of hisModel T truck and waited.

Several hours passed and nothing hap-pened. It was getting on close to dark whenhe noticed the cord started to inch out ofthe coil he had it in under the bumper. Histruck was being pulled towards the water. Hepanicked and first tried to untie the rope.That didn’t work. So he jumped in the truckand cranked it up. When he let out on theclutch to go forward, his tires spun in thesoft dirt near the water. He revved the motorand tried to power his way up the slightincline away from the water, but to no

avail. Slowly and surely the truck continuedto slide backwards with tires spinning andthe driver yelling at the top of his lungsfor help.

A few minutes later the fisherman wassitting in the cab of his truck waist deep inwater and then the engine of the Model Tflooded out. The fellow jumped off theseat and swam back to the bank. Exhaustedand soaking wet.

He walked the seven miles back homethat night and told his story. The Model Ttruck was never seen again. There is a postscript to this. A few years later a Barn-Stormer came through offering rides onhis Bi-Plane. This fellow who had lost hisModel T truck asked if the pilot would flyhim over the pond. He was sure he saw histruck in the deep end of the lake. Therewas something else there as well, he said.It looked like a giant head sitting in thedriver’s seat. ST

A Big Fish Story

…by Byron Spires


What Is Your Wellness Level?

Have you checked your personalwellness lately? There’s no bet-ter time like the present to takeinventory of your health and

wellness level. The definition of wellnessis being aware of and actively workingtowards better health. By striking a bal-ance between all dimensions of wellnessin your life, you’ll see a difference in boththe quality and quantity of your remain-ing years.

First is physical wellness. By taking careof yourself physically you greatly reduceyour risk for illness. Pay attention to whatyou eat and be sure your diet includes avariety of foods from all the food groupsthat are healthful and properly portioned.Maintain healthy muscles as you age, bydoing something active every day. Anyrepetitive activity that uses major musclegroups will provide your body’s muscleswith needed stimulation. Include some resis-tance work. Overload your muscles byadding some weights. Two to five poundsis sufficient. You can carry them as youwalk. Be sure to consult your healthcareprovider before using weights or engag-ing in any physical exercise.

Secondly, how is your emotional well-ness? If you feel stressed, identify whatyour main causes of stress are. Then findways to combat your stressors. The moreyou take care of yourself emotionally, the

Diabetes type II is a diseasethat silently progresses dur-ing an individual's teen andadult years. It is fast becom-

ing an epidemic in America. Scientistsproject that in the near future, onethird of the population in the UnitedStates will develop diabetes type II.Currently, it is a sixth leading cause ofdeath in Americans. It is complicationsfrom the disease that causes much phys-ical and emotional suffering. Diabetescan lead to blindness, lower limb ampu-tations, kidney damage, heart disease,and stroke. It may also be linked toincreased risk for Alzheimer's disease.

There are many risk factors andcauses of diabetes type II. Rising ratesof obesity, physical inactivity, sedentarylifestyles, and unhealthy eating anddrinking habits are the main factorsthat contribute to developing this silentdisease. Stress from overwork or fam-ily issues, limited time to cook healthymeals at home, and eating more fastfood and prepackaged processed foodsare to blame for this tragic disease.These unhealthy living patterns are notonly detrimental for the body, mind,and spirit but also increase the likeli-hood of developing diabetes.

If an individual has pre-diabetes orchronic diabetes type II symptoms, canit be cured? The answer is yes. Studiesfrom China and around the world showthat receiving weekly acupuncture treat-ments and drinking daily a specially-formulated tea prescribed by a Chineseherbalist can lower blood glucose leveland reduce insulin resistance. In addi-tion, an individual needs to walk daily,

eat healthy foods, and limit total caloricintake. This is the Eastern approach toresolve a life-threatening condition.It is a safe, natural, and effective regi-men to cure early stage diabetes typeII without the harmful side effects ofmedication. Many Americans are notaware of this treatment option. If you,your family, or loved ones have dia-betes type II in the early stage, pleaseconsider this natural approach.

Does your cat try to bully you?Cats love to play, but sometimestheir behavior is interpreted asaggression. Many younger fe-

lines, have a tendency to play rough. Thisdoes not necessarily mean that there is aproblem. The key is learning the differencebetween normal play and behavioral issues.

Cats have an instinctual nature to hunt.This shows in their actions and behavior,even when playing. Cats will chase, scratch,bite, or pounce on their toys or other cats.Not to worry—it is natural behavior.

Sometimes cats will direct this type ofbehavior toward humans as well. It is impor-

tant to pay attention to the cat’s body lan-guage. If a cat is hissing or growling, theymay feel threatened. A cat with dilatedpupils or with its hair raised along the spinealso should be avoided until she has amoment to relax. These can be signs of a catthat may exhibit aggressive behavior. Onthe other hand, if the cat is purring, hold-ing its tail high in a confident manner, orhopping around, this usually means that sheonly wants to play.

If your cat is playing too rough even ina friendly manner, there are several waysyou can reduce this behavior. Provide yourcat with a variety of toys, especially thosethat move like prey. Toys that move like a

mouse or a bird keep your cat interested,as they can hunt the toy.

If your cat likes to attack your feet orankles, try carrying toys that you can tossaway from you to redirect your cat’s atten-tion away from your legs. Do not encour-age your cat to bat at your hands or feet,instead turn their attention to their toys.

You may also consider adopting a sec-ond cat as a playmate. Try to find a catthat exhibits similar behavior and will getalong well with your current cat. HalifaxHumane Society’s Meet Your Match pro-gram can assist you in finding the right cat.

Never punish your cat physically, as thiscan encourage their rough play, or frighten

them to the point of becoming aggressive.Instead, if your cat insists on rough play,you can stop the behavior with a quick sprayfrom a water bottle, or by clapping yourhands to get your cat’s attention.

While cats are not always easy to train,with a consistent effort, you can minimizeyour cat’s rough play. If these tips fail tohelp your cat, you may want to reach outto a certified cat behaviorist or ask yourveterinarian for tips. ST

We've all heard the popu-lar saying: An ounce ofprevention is worth apound of cure. In other

words, it's far easier to prevent a prob-lem from occurring that it is to fix theproblem after it has occurred. That's cer-tainly true when it comes to residentialburglaries. While nothing is fool-proof,there are a number of preventive mea-sures that you can take to make yourhome less vulnerable to thieves.

First off, if you're going to leave yourhome unattended for an extended periodof time, remember to take some safetymeasures to ensure the security of yourresidence. That includes locking alldoors and windows, making sure theoutside of your home is well lit, invest-ing in a quality alarm system, keepingshrubs trimmed to eliminate hidingplaces, and stopping all home deliveries.

The best advice is to give your homea lived-in appearance at all times, evenwhen you're not there. Here are a fewsimple suggestions:

• Turn down the volume on your tele-phone ringer. A ringing telephone thatgoes unanswered is a dead give-awayto a burglar.

• Never leave a message on youranswering machine that tells the callerthat you're away from home. Instead,say: “I'm not available now.”

• Use an automatic timer to turn inte-rior lights on and off at varying intervalsto give the appearance that someone isinside the home.

• Leave a television on. Anyone peer-ing into your windows will naturallyassume that someone is inside.

• Leave the drapes in their customaryposition. Don't close them completelyunless that's what you would normallydo when at home.

• Have someone mow your lawn orrake your yard. A burglar will assumethe resident is tending to his property.

• Have a neighbor park in your dri-veway or in front of your house.

Making your home uninviting tocriminals by practicing safety habitswill dramatically decrease your chancesof becoming a crime victim. ST

Make Your Home Less Vulnerable

Two notes came to me in one dayand each made me think in a dif-ferent way. One scolded me forspeaking well of Buddhism and

feeling that I had a friend in Jesus. The othersaid, “I don’t let my mind stunt my growth.”

The writer of the first note is a man I havelong admired for his independent thinkingand courage to buck the tide when an issuemattered to him. He wrote, “I would neverhave thought you would have fallen for abunch of myth and mysticism. I had heardthat you embraced Buddhism which I al-ways found confusing when you would useChristian references in your essays.”

While I have never embraced Buddhism,I have long profited by reading great Bud-dhist writings. I started meditating 20 yearsago to lower my blood pressure and foundBuddhist and certain Catholic orders mosthelpful in those studies. I am neither Bud-dhist nor Catholic but I am like a bee thatloves nectar from all kinds of flowers.

After early disenchantment with religionI came to realize that portions of testamentsinspired me. I found that sufficient groundsto study and enjoy them. I don’t think myIQ dropped a point because of it.

He became more explicit in his appraisalof my intelligence. He said some people don’tread biblical criticism “because they don’t havethe intellectual horsepower to deal with it.”

A few minutes after reading his mail, Ireceived Cherie Harclerode’s note aboutnot letting her mind stunt her growth. Thatis exactly what people do who believe ratio-nality contains all reality.

One thing is certain: we are much morethan minds and bodies. We fall in love withpeople and animals and melodies and treesand flowers and all kinds of things both tan-gible and intangible. These things move usin ways that are not rational. Often we donot have the slightest understanding of whywe are touched at the core of our being bythe things we experience.

Al Harvey speaks of the swelling of theinner being. A soaring of some part of mynature even occurred once as I held the handand listened to the visions of a dying friend.

The mind is fine but it functions bestwhen it walks hand-in-hand with the swel-ling of the inner being. ST

The Mind Can Stunt Our Growth

My Sunday

Journal…by Dalton Roberts


Neck pain is a symptom that canstem for a variety of causes. Itmay be localized to the neck orradiate to the shoulder and arm.

Neck pain is often associated with stiffnessand decreased range of motion. Causes forneck pain include trauma, such as a whiplashinjury; chronic strain usually associated withstress or poor posture; degenerative dis-orders; herniated disk; rheumatoid arthri-tis; fibromyalgia; and infection.

Most physicians will agree that an effec-tive neck treatment which promises last-ing results must be focused on addressingthe root cause of the problem. Otherwise,the approach will just be a band-aid rem-edy that may not last.

In practice, most chronic neck pain con-ditions have underlying mechanical and/or structural issues. For example, a persis-tent neck pain can be traced to an arthriticpathology that limits range of motion caus-ing muscle guarding. In practical terms, thistranslates into muscle tightness causingnerve irritation and consequent chronic pain.This may continue as a cycle where the painprevents the patient from being active andtherefore allowing the muscles to remainstiff and tight!

To break the cycle of pain, we need toconsider options that guarantee lastingresults while minimizing the use of drugsthat may be harmful when used long term.Acupuncture and physical therapy, can

offer a combination approach that addressesboth the root cause of the problem andassociated symptoms. A typical modalityof treatment combines manual therapywhich improves joint mobility and main-tains spinal stability and acupuncture forpain relief.

It is believed that pain has a very strongsubjective component that is very muchaffected by stress and anxiety. With theuse of acupuncture, Chinese herbs, and nat-ural supplements, we are able to relax themind and the body.

There is a very bright and promisingfuture for chronic pain sufferers who arewilling to give complementary forms oftreatment a chance to work. You don’thave to live with pain. We offer treatmentsthat will allow you to take your live back!You can be PAIN FREE!

King Features

The Blue Grass Cook Book isa fascinating cookbook andwas originally published in1904 when Minnie C. Fox, a

Kentucky socialite, compiled more than300 recipes gathered from her family,friends, and black cooks who lived neareither her family estate in BourbonCounty, Kentucky, or her home in BigStone Gap, Virginia.

The collection reflected authenticSouthern cooking, prepared in turn-of-the-century kitchens where sorghummolasses, drop biscuits, succulent curedhams, and decadent desserts were allcommonplace. The recipes includedsuch regional favorites as Johnny Cake,Baked Apple Dumplings, Green CornCustard with Broiled Tomatoes, andeven Mrs. Henry Clay’s Drop Cake.What makes this cookbook so excep-tional is that the featured dishes are allplaced in their proper historic context.

A century ago, most collections thatfeatured “fine old Dixie dishes” alsoincluded demoralizing etchings of slavesat work, vernacular language, and occa-

sionally lyrics from spiritual hymns.The Fox family gave credit where creditwas due, and with dignity provided re-dress to the black descendants of gen-erations of invisible cooks who hadworked to help define the culinary his-tory of the South.

Many of the recipes serve as inter-esting historical landmarks. Where elsecould you find instructions on how todress terrapin? While most of us willnever prepare turtle, many of the recipesstill can be prepared in contemporaryAmerican kitchens using familiar in-gredient and methods. The Coconut Pud-ding, Caramel Layer Cake, and Sweet-breads are fairly easy to prepare.

When the New York Times reviewedthis cookbook in 1904, the critic pointedout that many of the recipes are “veri-table heirlooms, precious souvenirs ofthe past, the originals of which were infaded ink, just as they were inscribed byloving hands of our mothers and grand-mothers.” He might have added that thiscollection is the next best things toobserving the cooking in a Southernkitchen over a 100 years ago.

My son Danny was unexpect-edly taken to heaven by anattack of spinal meningitisthree months short of his 10th

birthday. That happened 34 years ago, andGod has brought me through the pain re-markably well. He was a healthy, well-adjusted little boy who loved football. Healso loved his family and never hesitatedto show concern and affection. I really missthat part of him. He would often tell meon our way to school, “Mom, you sure dolook pretty today.”

Fast forward to last summer. I had takenup a little ministry of making small tip boxesout of greeting cards. I included an encour-aging note and gave them along with the tipto waitresses and other service personnel.They seem to enjoy receiving the box morethan the tip. Many have told me they keep thelittle box, sometimes with the tip still inside.

I use a 6-inch ruler to measure the foldswhile making the boxes. One day whilemaking them I realized I had lost my littleruler. I tried using a longer one, but it wastoo awkward for the task, so I started shop-ping for a 6-inch ruler. I was having a hardtime finding one.

One day after struggling to make theboxes with a larger ruler, I took a breakand walked to the outside building wheremy husband was working. There are shelveson one wall that house containers of things

that have been there since we moved in 10years ago. As I walked through the door,my husband was standing there doing some-thing near a table under the shelves. I wasabout to ask him something when a smallobject on the table caught my eye. It wasa piece of a broken ruler. I asked what itwas. He looked at it and said he had neverseen it before. I picked it up, turned it overand remembered. It was the first 6 inchesof an old wooden ruler that had been bro-ken in half more than 30 years ago. It stillhad the cellophane tape remnants of anattempt to mend it. I turned it over and myeyes instantly welled up as I read the child-like writing carved into the wood. DannyD. It had been my son Danny's school ruler.My memory shot back to the time he hadbroken it in two and I tried to fix it for him.I turned to my husband with tears streamingdown my face and said, "Look who thisbelonged to." His eyes also welled as helooked at me and said, "He has been here."

The ruler had been broken when Dannywas in the fourth grade, not long before hedied. It somehow was packed away in theboxes on the shelves, but never showed upuntil 34 years later when I needed a 6-inchruler. I still cannot explain how it got there,but it is now one of my tools for my littleministry of encouraging people with tiny tipboxes. Thank you, Danny; I love you. ST

GRANADA MEDICAL CENTER

by Larry Cox

Q: I understand that transistor radioshave become collectible. I have a CoronetKing pocket radio with two transistors. Ihave been offered $50 for it.

—Stan, Granite City, ILA: Take the money and run. Your radio,

working and in reasonable condition, isworth about $20.

***Q: I have Cabbage Patch dolls, reindeer

from McDonald’s, Tonka toys, old books,and other items. I need to know the valuesof these items so I can sell them.

—Dorothy, Cortland, NYA: I suggest you do some research into

current values by visiting antique shops andmalls in your area. Find a dealer and see ifthey will help you. Most dealers are morethan willing to share their expertise, butdon’t waltz into a shop with a long list ex-pecting them to price each item. It willnot happen.

If that is what you need, you should hirethe services of a good, certified appraiser.I also think current price guides would behelpful. You can find some of the betterones at www.amazon.com In this sluggisheconomy, finding buyers and getting top dol-lar will be difficult.

Q: I have a Decca recording of BingCrosby’s White Christmas. I was offered $25for it. Should I sell the record or keep it?

—Paul, Davenport, IWA: By all means, sell it. Your recording

is worth only a couple of dollars. Millionsof copies were sold, and it is not rare. Inci-dentally, it is interesting to note that one ofour most popular Christmas songs was writ-ten by a Jewish composer, Irving Berlin,while he soaked up the warm sunshine onewinter poolside at a resort in Phoenix.

***Q: I have a copy of The Watkins Cook

Book from 1938. Is it worth anything?—Dolores, Platteville, WI

A: The Watkins Cook Books often weregiven away by company representatives.A quick check revealed that most editionsfrom the 1930s sell in the $10 to $25 rangedepending, of course, on condition. One ofthe better price guides is Antique TraderCollectible Cookbooks Price Guide by Patri-cia Edwards and Peter Peckham publishedby Krause. Check out the website www.OldCookbooks.com ST
