Norwich which was planned by a woman for herself that has no outside door leading to the kitchen, and no one can get into her kitchen, pantry or sink room without being invited. The whole house is just fitted to a sensible womans taste.
 We have heard women declare no man could design a home which met a sensible woman's tastes or ideas of convenience, and the fact that they do not is probably the reason female ar chitects are on the increase Home planning seems to be a woman's field. She knows the kitchen should be the pleasantest room in the house and that convenience and the saving of steps in the pursuance of household duties are prime considerations when homes are being designed.

A WORD FROM SILVER sxPENcE.

Dear Editor and Social Corner Friends: A very Happy New Year to you all, if I am not too late. and 1 think it is allowable until the month is out of it's teens" at least. W hat a large family we are, and how in the world does our Editor keep trace of us? We'll he seems to be blessed with lots of patience and kindly interest in us and 1 am truly glad to be counted in
 Who's Who? is still a puzzle to me. Yet from the letters l get the impres- sion the problem is solved by some of lhe Sisters. 1 miss so many of the old writers-Grandma, Ready and others. Occasionally they give us 8 glimpse of their dear selves and it's always a treat.
 1 often wonder why the pen names are changed, but as I write I can see it helps to continue the mystery of Who's Who?
 I hope you all passed the holidays pleasantly and that Santa favored you and yours bountifully.
 Dear AUnty No. 1: Here's my hand, with a heart full of best wishes for the year all the way through. Health and joy far exceed wealth and luxury if our hearts are all right
 I don't believe our Crank is as cranky as he (of course he's he) would have us think. Anyway, his salt as a cleanser and purifier is all right.
 Sister Nancy: I agree with you in the forming of new friendships. It has always been my idea we could not have too many friends of the right leave us we feel there are others who will be just as true and dear if we do our part whole heartedly.

GREETINGS FROM PAPA's BOY.

Dear Editor and all the Sisters: Although I have been absent a long time I have read the Social Corner letters every week. Some new Sis ters have joined The Corner and old ones have disappeared.
 Ready: I see your lettrs once i'll a while which seem good, How are you?
 Aunty No. 1: When you and Mir.
 drive this way call and see me. You can easily find me, I am always at home. When the muddy season is over my automobile will spin around and call on some of the Sisters.
 Cheri5ette: How did you enjoy your auto ride III December? Saw "Chum- mie'' other day and she said, T haven't had any Prairie Dogs and 'Sinkers' since I left N" Haven't seen any ginger only in snaps. Remember me to the Deacon's wife when you see her. Aunt Sarah: Buckwheat cakes go good these winter mornings.
 Elizabeth: How did you get along with the little tumbler dolly I sent by --? Come and sec us again.
 Rural Delivery: I am still living in Lebanon, and hope in your E. D. your route c0meS as far as Shere.
 Great Grandma: Are you making rugs this winter as much as you have? We have those you made in the parior and can see them every day. The deer's head is under my piano stool, but it is a beauty.
 I will close for this time hoping all of the Sisters are we'll,
 Your Social Corner Brother.

HOW MARRIED AND HAPPY
 MAKES STRIPED BAGS.

Social Corner Friends: Betsy Bob bet requests my recipe for salad dress ing made with bacon fat. This is only good for potato salad-I have my potatoes ready and turn the hot dressing over them as they are much better seasoned by that method. Salad Dressing: Two kitchen spoons of bacon fat when melted in the spider; add one tablespoon flour, one tablespoon sugar, one tablespoon mus tard, and one tablespoon salt Mix the dry ingredients, then add to the hot up, one half cup vinegar, one half cup water Boil till thick Beat one egg in a bowl, then slowly pour on the hot dressing; beat again with the egg beater till well blended
 The other day l creamed oysters in the chafing dish and used bacon fat instead of butter with the result that the company said: What delicious ly favored oy sters.''
 Use bacon fat with crean1ed dried beef. Have also for the want of something else used it for sandwiches; cause folks think they are sood till you tell them what it IS they are eat ing.
 Several have requested my directions for tho Roman stripe work I am nlak- ing: This takes 1 ball of black vel
  another ball of what ever color you wish for the top and bottom of the bag. The shades are clear yellow, Kelly green, cardinal red. and navy blue; though in my bag I have used lighe blue, the 1-2-3 rows of a color are put in in short crochet, the and $ rows in double crochet or thread over once.
 Begin the bottom of the bag by cro- cheting over a cover in short crochet a circle as large as desired for the bottom of the bag. Mine measures five inches across. Then with the same color as the bottom in double crochet go around the circle. 1 dou- ble doubles to a stitch; then with out widening again proceed with the stripe:
 row black, 1 green, 4 red, green, , black, yellow, green, 3 black. blue, black. ? white 1 black, yellow. 1 white. green, 6 blue, white. black. green. 2 white, 1 black, red, 1 black, blue, 1 black, and repeat until the bag is as deep as you want. then with thread over twice make row to run a ribbon, draw string and finish with a. scollop: make the last rows the same color as the bottom; finish with apricot in black. Interested Reader: Thank you for

 our departure-we agreed that we all felt ten years nger-because we nao lau4he4 so much- So you see our nonsence hadn't all been in vain.
 When I got home and thought of the good time we had had, l wondered there were not more Social Corner clubs in other localities. There must be places and neighborhoods that would have a few Social Corner Sis ters as well as Willimantic.
 Our method Is a good one and I will pass it on. The hostess provides one hot dish-anythIng that suits her conscience, and coffee with the trim mings. Then we have several kinds of sandwiches, pickles, jelly, salted nuts, pie, cheese, cake and fruit con tributed by the guests, by request of the hostess Everything so easy, simple and plain that we do not leave a tired hostess behind us. Some take their work, and We certainly do have good times. My advice is get up a club. Try it and see.

CONCERNING EMPLOYMENT.

Editor Social C0rner:-A Boston Sunday paper of Jan. 17tfl, publishes a page headed: This Is the Land of Equal Birth" with a picture of a group of half starved looking fac tory workers
 The picture drawn may be true in some parts of the United States, but it is not in the several factory vil- lages I have lived in.
 Sixty years ago and even forty years ago children of seven and eight worked in the mills and it was a shameful thing; but now few cnil dren are taken from school before they are fourteen years old, and if our boys and girls finish the eighth grade at fourteen shall they run the streets for two years before begin ming their life work If they can have two years in q. business school it is a good thing; but if there is only father working and large fam fly; or. if there is no father, how can the home be kept up without the childrens help?
 In many of the New England vil- Iages man and woman Of fair educa- tion and refinement are factory work CTS Many of them are workers in the church and Sunday school, mem bers of the village social clubs and have comfortable homes.
 We find neatly dressed girls in the mills and also slOven1y dressed; loud EO4IGOs DOiO AS-SJSN E-1 AS e1IAb LiACiC al ' both kinds in the high schools.
 was told recently of a widow in Boston who was obliged to give up her young children because her four teen-year-old boy could not take 3 job that was offered to him because he could not work under sixteen.
 Mother love is 9 sacred thing, but not all mothers have it. If young boy or girl has a good clean home they are better off to work to keep that home than to be put in the home of strangers after they leave school, or to be objects Of charity. No strong. well boy or girl enjoys being dependant on others after finishing school. Satan finds work for idle hands. Why is it harder or more de- grading to work in & factory than iu a store or office? The pay is as much, the hours no longer and the employers fully as considerate. Is the boy or girl who works from 6:30 a.. m. to 6:3o ?. m. to add $500 to the weekly income so a family of six can have an income of s1S.oo a bit more to be pitied than one who

SOCIAL CORNER CLUB NO i.

Dear Editor and Friends: Last Sat urday morning incoming trains and tfolleys brought to our city the mem bers of the Social Corner Club No. L They wended up one of our side-hilI- streets until they came to 8, cosy cot tage with a yellow bow on the front door-knob, and when the door was welcome and Fulda. Pop Over, Biddy, Theoda, Aunt Hulda, Pop Over, Biddy, green, Married and Happy, Trot- tie. Wandering Jew. Azalea, and Lovy Mary awaiting her.
 At 1 p. rn- luncheon was served and such a. lunch, for when the hostess had bid us she had included a mys- tic word-with the result that a well regulated bunch-4of just enough of every thing was served-with the as SlStance of Pop Over and Lovy Mary.
 With the usual appetite which seems to belong to Social CorneTites every thing was eaten up but the plates. AS many of them were antique the hos tess warned us not to let her see us carrying item home
 Before lunch we conversed; during lunch we talked; after lunch we jab- bered; and finally, before we left, we all talked at once. We spoke of the absent, Aunty No. 1, Bright Ray Samantha, and how Josiah would very likely put that Bill he was talking about through as he was on the committee on Humane Insti- tutions.
 We sent brave message to Di- ana, and the Editor
 After that I don't recall one sensi- ble thing any one said.

ECONOMICAL MEAT DISHES.

Dear Social Corner Friends: Am sending a few economical meat dishes. In the ma jority of homes meat is the most costly article of food, yet it is the matter serious consideration or do what they might to reduce this ex- pense.
 Confounding price with nutrition. they become imbued with the idea that only the nigh priced cuts of meat are wholesome, and thus entirely lose sight of the fact that some of the inferior cuts contain equally as much nourish- ment, and in the hands of a clever cook can be rendered not only as pal atable but also as attractive.
 The appended recipes will illustrate this truth and at the same time afford acceptable changes from the steak, chops and roast which appear with such nonotonous regularity the year round:
 Beef Braise-Takc piece of trump of the desired size; pound tender tie and sllewer, then lay in a deep baking pan. previously lined with thin slices of sliced pork and sliced onion. Cover the top of the meat with sliced pork, sprinkle lightly with pepper. add q. cup of boiling water, dredge thickIy with flour, cover closely and bake in a slow oven, allowing 20 minutes to the pound Then uncover, take out the meat, skim off fat and tticken the broth for gravy.
 Praised CaIFs Liver-Lay the liver in a dish. pour on boiling water to cover and immediately pour it off, which will seal up the juices and re- move the unpleasant flavor which many persons find unpalatable. Lard the rounded side with salt pork. Fry an onion in bacon fat, then put it with the liver in a deep baking dish, sprin- kle lightly with salt and pepper and a little parsley, if you wish, pour over enough boiling water to half cover, put on the lid and bake two hours in a steady oven. When done, season the broth with lemon juice, if liked, and pour over the liver and serve at once
 Brown Ste~-Put a rather thick piece of beef, with little bone and some fat over the fire in a stew kettle; pour over it just enough boiling water to cover. season with pepper, put on a

The Editor of the Social Corner was pleased to receive New Years greet ings from M. Roena and a photograph of her bungalow which she writes she planned and built herself at Alexan- dria, Ohio. which is now her perma- nent home.
 Realizing that the older writers all have a pleasant memory of her and hold her in warm regard. the Editor had a picture made of this cozy little home designed by our Social Corner Sister for herself so that every mem Der may have one, to which we feel sure she can make no objection.
 The Editor has no doubt this little house is convenient inside and most inviting. It seems to have been cast in the "glorified comfort mold.

end with shaded stripes of a lighter or a. darker shade.
 White rugs f1eclzed with blue are very pretty for the bath or bedroom and these can be easily washed and kept clean.
 If light rugs are desired white warp should be used, otherwise the warp should be the shade of the rags
 The braided rugs should not be overlooked as they arc admired by many and can be braided in so many different strands from the small three strand up to seven and even farther. if you should so choose. l like the four, five and seven best.
 Here is one direction for the four strand. which makes very pretty rug: Use only two colors, two Of black Gold stockings are flne) with the other two strands of some other color. To sew cut braids any length desired and sew with 8 strong thread to within two inches of each end leaN- ing this for a fringe. When sewed to- gether each color forms a stripe. To make the stripes run one way always begin hraiding by putting the first strand over; to make the stripes run in the opposite direction. begin braid ing by putting the first strand under. If lacking enough of any two colors use different colors in bralds for the outer rows: or if obliged to use Hit and Miss sew alls light rags togetff7r and all dark together, then use two strands of each; and as you work you will be able to plan many ways
 Hoping I have made this plain for those who have never braided any rugs, and if they try these directions hope they will have good luck
 Would like to chat with you all, but will close by sending all best wishes
