As Mother Made Them.

Reading your reply to Westfield
brought back to me memories of those
luscious mahogany colored pumpkin pies.
My mother always cooked the pumpkin in
the way described in that letter and al
though years ago l can taste them yet
This Is the way she made them: Use a
deep ribbed dark skin pumpkin, cut in
slices, peel. remove seeds. and put in an
iron kettle with one cup of water, cover
closely. and cook until tender Remove
cover and cook slowly using a wooden
potato masher to mash and stir and to keep
from burning. When the pumpkin is dry
like mashed potatoes and very rich
brown take from the fire. The next morn
ing put through colander and proceed
as we do In these days.
Here is the original recipe, used for
years: One cup pumpkin or half cup pump
kin, and one tablespoon of flour little salt.
pepper, ginger. and cinnamon Ino cloves.
unless you wish it very dark, two table
spoons sugar. one egg; beat well, add milk
to make thick custard, and one teaspoon
melted butter. This will make one pie.
hope some one will try this recipe and re-
port upon 1t! A. M. L."
So do |. l am little afraid of that pep
per and ginger combination. Doesn't it
make pretty hot pie? Once knew man
VINO said that the best pumpkin pies were
made OF Hubbard squash and l have eaten
some OF them which inclined me to think he
had right on his side. At the same time
am glad to have the recipe for the old
fashioned dark pumpkin pie and shall await
with interest a report upon 1t for some of
our Cornerites

have been told that this sort of thing, is
as natural among youths and maidens as is
the preening of the male or female bird.
Some of the mothers do not see the harm
of allowing their children such freedom
possibly because of confidence in their
young people, probably through sheer care
lessness. All the other girls and boys
do the same thing and the fact that there
have been some terrible tragedies, some
cruel shipwrecks of lives which might
have become an honor and blessing to the
