   Cake:  Sift flour once, measure, add baking powder, and sift together
   three times.  Cream shortening thoroughly, add sugar gradually, and
   cream together until light and fluffy.  Add flour, alternately with
   milk, a small amount at a time.  Beat after each addition until
   smooth.  Add vanilla. Fold in egg whites.  Bake in two greased 9″
   layer pans in a 375 F. oven 25 to 30 minutes.  Put layers together
   with Orange Filling and cover top and sides of cake with Seven Minute
   Frosting.  Decorate with mandarin orange sections. Filling: Combine
   ingredients in order given. Cook in a double boiler ten minutes,
   stirring constantly. Cool. Frosting: Put egg whites, sugar, water,
   corn syrup, and salt in top of double boiler and mix thoroughly.
   Place over rapidly boiling water and beat constantly with a rotary
   egg beater until the mixture will hold a peak (about seven minutes).
   Remove from hot water, add vanilla and marshmallows and beat until
   cool and thick enough to spread.
