Settlement for part of the shortage
incurred during Emmett M. Gibb's
nu isredounty clerk, to the extent of
$2,000, has been approved by the
_.vard of Supervisors.
This sum represents bond posted
for the years 1937 and 1938, and falls
$903.77 short of the amount Gibb
allegedly took over that period. The
agreement, made with the Seaboard
Surety Corp., assigns to the bonding
company any claims against any
other companies and individuals for
that term.
Negotiations are still In process
with the companies which had Gibb's
bonds for 1936 and 1939.

outstanding moral questions of the
day."

while your electric cooker
PEND your afternoon shop-
ping or at the theater or
visiting friends . . . go for a
drive in the car. When you
come home at supper time,
wouldn't it be pleasant to find
your whole dinner waiting-
perfectly cooked, warm, and
ready for the table? That is
exactly whot an electric cooker
does for you.
Cooks a whole meal
at one time
A roast, two vegetables, pota-
toes and gravy can be cooked
all at one time-or you can
prepare all casserole dishes
such as waterless pot roast,
Boston baked beans, Irish stew,
etc., to perfection. You'll be
enthusiastic about electric
cooking: No other method
cooks with such flavor, such
tenderness-even for cheaper
cuts of meat. And an electric
cooker is simple to use: Plug
it into any convenience outlet.
