able sum of S7.617.34, which will be di-
vided among four local institutions.

The Table

With the increased cost of living
gradually less expensive foods may
come to replace roasts and broiled
cooking and serving.
A taste should be cultivated for win
ter vegetables, green salads and bread.
The vegetables should be well sea
soued, the green salads crisp and invit-
ing and the bread of various forms
and materials
In many families a stew would not
be reIished. but the same meat cooked
en- casserole would be much appreci-
ated. The average cook spends little
tine and less thought on such a COM
mon everyday dish as stew. The
foreign looking dish. no less than its
name in which food en- casserole is
cooked and sent to the table calls out
the interest and enthusiasm of the most
Indifferent cook, and meat and vege-
Ia bles will be Drowned, to bring out
flavor; slow cooking and other direc-
tions viii be followed and the dish
though only in reality a stew-Will be
a pronounced success.
The success in catering for the table
depends much more upon the skill of
the cook than upon the sums spent in
marketing. A single cup of broth is
an asset not to be despised by the
careful cook who understands what an
addition the favor of chicken is to a
dish of cream soup, macaroni. rice.
