ESKIMO PIE by Janet Spencer

A NEW TREAT

• Christian Nelson operated a candy store and ice cream shop in Iowa. One day a boy couldn’t decide whether to buy a candy bar or ice cream. That made Christian wonder why you couldn’t combine both. • Experimenting, he found that cocoa butter would glue chocolate covering to a disk of ice cream. He called it the ‘I-Scream Bar.’ • In 1922 he went to a man named Russell who managed the Graham Ice Cream Company, who paid half the cost of a patent for half the profits. Russell’s wife suggested the name Eskimo Pie for the product. Each Eskimo Pie was wrapped in tin foil. • When the product hit the market, it caused a frenzy, selling a million a day. The company became the biggest consumer of tin foil in the nation. To meet demand, they licensed dairies to make the product in exchange for a royalty, but some dairies failed to pay royalties while others infringed on the patent. (cont'd next page)

Watch out for trees!

A NEW FOIL

• Richard Samuel was the nephew of Richard Joshua. Uncle Richard Joshua was a tobacco baron, and nephew Richard Samuel worked for him. At the time, cigarettes were wrapped in foil made from a mixture of tin and lead. As the demand for cigarettes increased, so did demand for tin foil, and it was constantly in short supply. • In 1919 nephew Richard Samuel borrowed $100,000 from his uncle, then left his uncle’s tobacco firm in order to start up a tin foil company. Other tin foil firms tried to run him out of business by lowering their prices, but then the price of aluminum dropped, and Richard Samuel discovered that making foil from aluminum was far less expensive – and far more sensible – than making it out of tin and lead. • Aluminum foil was lighter and thinner than tin foil so more of it could be rolled from a single pound of metal; it was non-corrosive; and it was shinier. He invented a way to print on it, so he could make custom wrappers for specific foods. Demand for his foil skyrocketed with the invention of the Eskimo Pie because each one was wrapped in foil. • In 1924 Richard Samuel’s firm bought out the Eskimo Pie company, which was its single biggest customer. The company expanded to produce aluminum siding, aluminum cans, aluminum bumpers, and more. Eventually the firm became the world’s third largest aluminum and packaging company. It’s best known for aluminum foil, which carries the last name shared by Uncle Richard Joshua and nephew Richard Samuel. What was their last name? (Answer below) Answer: Reynolds, as in Reynolds Wrap, and R.J. Reynolds tobacco.

Where You Gonna Live

With all the events and circumstances in life, one thing is for certain. We are either in a storm, going into a storm, or coming out of a storm. No matter what season we are in, we have to deal with problems and opportunities every day of our lives. Where we choose to live spiritually determines the outcome of our lives. I recently visited Kansas City’s football (Arrowhead) and baseball (Kauffman) stadiums. They are located in a huge parking lot that services both arenas. This facility provides a great picture of the 3 residential places that are described in scripture. One arena is the Old Testament. The second arena is the New Testament, and the parking lot represents the world outside the arenas. The Old Testament is anchored in the law that was given through Moses. The New Testament is founded and built on grace and truth through the death and resurrection of Jesus. Picture the foot of the cross inside the OT arena and the Head of the cross inside the NT arena. The sides of the cross extend into either side of the parking lot. The only entrance into the NT arena is walking through the cross from the foot (OT arena) and the sides (parking lot). We have one of three choices to live: 1) in the legalism of the law, 2) in the darkness of the parking lot, or 3) in the light of Jesus. The brilliance of the stadium lights of all who are in Christ are welcoming you to walk from darkness (the parking lot) and legalism of religion (the Old Testament) into eternal grace and truth (the New Testament). The choice is yours. Where you gonna live?

Getting Rid In floats!of Clutter

Whether you plan to stay in your home forever or sell it and move to smaller accommodations, getting rid of clutter can make your life easier and safer. Here are a few very good reasons to declutter: ● Fewer opportunities to trip and fall. Consider what happens when a senior falls and breaks a bone: hospital, rehab and the question of where to go afterward. Can the senior go home and live independently again? Sometimes the answer is no. 1. What flavormakes of ice things cream consistently ● Organizing easier to find. out-sells all others? ● Clutter can be dangerous. If 2.

Taken to an extreme, holding on to too many possessions can be called hoarding, and sometimes social services will step in to deal with it. Your best bet is to declutter long before it gets to that point. Here are some ideas to get you started: ● Magazines and newspapers: Allow yourself three of each.
