HOUSEWIVES DAILY
ECONOMY CALENDAR
EAT MORE RICE.
BY FRANCES MARSHALL.

The Oriental eats about pound of
rice a day. on the average-over three
hundred and fifty pounds a year. The
Americans yearly average is something
like five pounds. Somebody pointed out
this interesting contrast not long ago
and the woman who is always on the
lookout for new ways of economizing,
may we'll take a lesson from II. The
lesson IS this: Eat more rice, for econ
omy's sake. Here are some tempting
ways of using rice so that II may be-
come a bigger factor In the daily die
tary.
Rice and raisin fritters-To one pint
of fritter batter add one cupful of
cooked rice and one-half cupful of
chopped raisins. Fry in hot lard. Drain
on brown paper. and serve with maple
syrup.
Rice with cheese-Into baking
dish put layers of well-cooked rice,
salt. pepper. butter and grated cheese
Sprinkle crumbs on top and cover with
milk. Bake three-quarters of an hour.
Rice griddle cakes-Put one-half
pound of thoroughly cleaned rice into
saucepan. cover with water and boil
TO a mush, adding more water when
necessary. Cool and TO half the
quantity of rice add one cup of cream,
four eggs. a pinch OF salt and a graf
ing OF nutmeg. Mix into these in
gradients one-quarter of a pound of
melted butter and sufficient -four TO
make n thick batter. Fry on a hot
griddle and serve.
Rice custard-Beat two eggs. one
half cupful of sugar and one tea
spoonful of butter together. Add one
cupful OF boiled rice and two cupfuls
of hot milk. Stir thoroughly. Sprinkle
with nutmeg or add vanilla and bake
in a pan of water till brown.
Rice tartlets-MiX three ounces of
ground rice with half a cupful OF cold
milk and cook il with two cupfuls of
boiling milk until tender. then stir
in four heaping tablespoonfuls OF
sugar. one tablespoonful of butter. a
pinch of salt. the grated rind and
strained juice of one lemon and two
well beaten eggs. Stir over the fire
for a few minutes, but do not let the
mixture boil. Line gem pans with pas
try. fill with the mixture, CRATE a lit
tie nutmeg over the top and bake for
half an hour in a moderate oven.

| incidents that tend to show that the
men actually fighting are not in sym
pathy with the struggle.
That some one knew why the war
was started" she is convinced. and
IL diplomatic secrets could be revealed
! it would be shown that those who
started the struggle hoped for q
speedy and successful conclusion.
Miss Richards touched In her talk
on the project of the Ford peace ship
which. although surely a splendid
piece of publicity for the cause of
peace, in her opinion, not likely to
achieve the goal for which II had set
out.
In discussing the work of the re-
cent peace convention Miss Richards
struck several notes that met with the
enthusiastic applause of her hearers.
81 ask in the name of high heaven"
she said. and / say 1t in all rev.
erence. why can't the United States
take the initiative in starting the
work of peace" a work in which as
she had pointed out before. none OF
the warning nations would be con-
celvably willing to take a lead.
Miss Richards further went on to
talk OF the necessity for a growth
of the spirit of internationalism after
the war was over. OF the possibilities
that might exist in an economic and
commercial boycott. and of the report
of Miss Adams on her recent peace
mission to the rulers of the warning
nations
Especially interesting was Miss
Richards discussion of the possible
outcome OF the war as seen from the
writings of those who were best able
TO make such prophecies.
The first point of view was that no
power could win out in the struggle
till one had had been crushed; the
second that a deadlock was the only
and best solution. owing TO the dis
astrous results that would follow com
plete victory of one of the warning
factions. 4 third opinion insisted that
Germany must be loser.
In making an interesting survey of
the situation in the Balkans and the
possible activities in the Orient Miss
Richards pointed out that the war
which had begun in the Balkans had
now for abe first time since the war
broke out. concentrated again in that
part of the European war. NJ. NJ.
The Washington herald., 1915-11-30
Miss Richards Talks to
Enthusiastic audience
She Makes Rapid Fire Survey of the War Situation anc
D,vells on the Balkan and Eastern Problem

Janet Richards has come to be a
Monday morning institution. The
hours from ten-for one has to arrive
beforehand to get a good seat-until
half-past twelve on Mondays are so
generally devoted to Miss Richards
talks on public questions at Woodward
& Lothrop's auditorium that no one
who knows Washington women would
dream of calling a committee meeting
or making any sort of engagement for
that hour. II any one did have the
temerity to select that hour for an
other meeting he might be morally
sure that more than half of the
women invited would not be present
Still / had never had the pleasure
of attending one of Miss Richards
talks till yesterday morning, and 1t
was as much to see how Miss Rich
ards delivered her talk as to hear the
substance of that talk that 1 was
eager to be present.
What shall l call that intangible
something that goes to make up Miss
Richards personality, that makes II
possible for her to gain and hold the
attention of her audience through
mornings incessant talking on topics
that, discussed by another, might be
intolerably dry? To me there is no
word that attempts TO describe this
personality so well as the word boy
ishness." because that word implies.
as no other word exactly does. the
complete lack of self-consciousness and
studied mannerism, the keen interest
in the subject in hand, the refreshing
abruptness, that characteriZes Miss
Richards manner of delivery and that
makes her listeners respond to her
minutest shade of meaning and catch
every shade of humor or pathos, OF
enthusiasm or dismay as she goes on
with her talk.
Yesterday morning Miss Richards
devoted almost her entire time to the
discussion of various phases of the
present European conflict. "A year
ago now" she said. the world hoped
to get the boys out of the trenches
by Christmas. Now we are further
away from that hope than We were
then"
From the talk yesterday Il is clear
that Miss Richards is not one of those
who believes that this is a peoples
war and she dwelt at some length on
