  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.
