Here is the way that one careful wo-
man wishes challie dresses for her chill
dren. She boils two pounds of rice in
three gallons of water and lets it stand
until nearly cool. Then she washes the
challie in that water. rubbing we'll with
her hands. Then she strains the rice
out by pouring i'll a bag made of a linen
towel, and washes the garment through
hands Then she rubS again through
the rice itself. rubbing hard with hel
the rice water. rinses in clear or blue

When ready to serve pile the hash in
the half melon. and serve in that as the
dish. 1t looks very pretty if placed on
a dish that is covered with green leaves.
