Corn Fritters Recipe from 1927

I love, love, love my old cookbooks!  I've endured the shame of having workers from moving companies look at me in wonderment and dismay;  of hauling them back from the various sale locations wheres I've found them (from parts of West Virginia, Ohio, Kentucky, Virginia, Georgia, Indiana, Texas, Oklahoma, Missouri, and Arkansas);  Trotting across the lawn with an old recipe box and ragged books from a yard sale where others are looking for Anything but old books! (yes, I get odd looks there, too);  Lysoling the covers of each and everyone before I shelve them:  and admitting to myself that...I may have a problem.  The last moving company had a man who gently informed me that he had, "cleared out my books and there were 12 boxes."  Oh, honey!  Little did he know!  That was only one set of shelves in the house that stored part of the "old cookbook collection"!  I'm glad that the other packers were working in the other areas of the house!
 Here in Arkansas, I've started to settle in and when I'm not hunting for a house to live in, I enjoy searching my new area of the country for vintage cookbooks;  I especially like to find a book that's both historic and has a regional focus.  So I'm now on the lookout for traditional recipes from Arkansas (and her surrounding states!)

Found this little book at a consignment shop in Springdale, Arkansas.  Butterick Recipes and Household Helps from 1927.  I used to love corn fritters as a kid, so I was happy to find this recipe.  (Of course you can just mix your corn into leftover pancake batter, too.  It's a way to stretch time and money!)
