THERE are two utensils In the wellsp-
i pointed kitchen which are the house
wife's FIRST aids to Transforming any food
into most appetizins dish. They are the
chopper and the several varieties OF
strainers.
b. OF course, the modern chopper Is now
almost universally used, and It Is one OF the
greatest labor-savers. In a test made not
long ago 1t wac found that while It took
about seven minutes TO chop one pound OF
meat in an old-fashioned wooden bowl with
a sharp knife, IL took only one minute 70
mnce the same amount Of meat with the
meat chopper. This ls largely because the
knife chops more air than II chops meat,
and thus most of the labor of chopping
with a knife is waste labor. On the other
hand, the meat chopper cuts meat and only
meat with every turn. Moreover, the meat
chopper, being mechanical, produces more
even results than one can produce by chop
ping with the hand.
ono Of the objections occasionally raised
against the chopper ls that IL ls hard TO
clean This was n considerable objection IN
the early days Of this machine when It was
made somewhat clumsily-it took some
time and Home mechanical skill to take the
chopper apart, and then laborlouBly to clean
each part and to put II together again
But the newer models are made much more
simply and there are now some on the
market that open In half, 30 to speak, ana
are as easy TO clean as n saucepan. There
are also some makes that have little ledge
or gutter under the chopper TO receive any
Juice that may escape Some OF the chop
pers that did not have this little appliance
very often permitted tho juice to escape ana
drop on the floor or spatter, but with TINS
little attachment there isn't the least oit
of waste
The main point TO watch In any dish that
calls for minced ingredients is that they be
calls for some ingredients mashed to
food be 30 we'll mashed that II is smooth
and creamy In consistency.
II is therefore n good plan not 20 depend
on one coander to do all the work of every
kind of mashing'-potatoes, purees, apple
sauce, etc. 1t Is a saving In the long rum
so far as wear and tear are concerned. and
also an assurance OF better cooking to start
in with several sizes OF strainers. There
should be very fine strainer for making
consomme, gelatin, etc, one a little coarser
for apple sauce and other fruits, and the
coarsest can be used for tomatoes and
purees.
There In on the market now an inexpen-
sIve timed hoop which can be olamped to
the table by It's extended handle, which
brings tho hoop on a level OF about eight
inches over the table. Into this hoop various
sized strainers can be placed, and the bowl
left beneath.
As tho strainer is thus clamped firmly to
the table 1t is possible to smooth any food

by a sudsy bath and a good hot rinslng.
But choppers should be given little special
treatment About every three or four
months the chopper should be given bath
with hot, melted paraffin. Then put II In
a drawer for few days. and before using,
run some bread crumbs through the chop
per to work of the paraffln. But this little
parahln bath lubricates the parts and helps
to make the chopper wear longer

SLANG NOT OBJECTIONABLE IN
SCHOOLS, SAYS THIS PARENT
Many Points Can Be More Forcefully Emphasized
by the Instructor Who Uses the Boys Own Lingo.
A Plea for Consideration to Animals

EVIDENTLY all mothers do not share
~ the opinion Of the one who wrote in
last week, urging that something be done
to suppress" the slaney instructor in our
schools this letter from NJ. O., who pre-
fers to remain anonymous, strikes new
note: At
Several issues back the woman's page
contained a protest against the use Of
slang In the pubic schools. 1t seems to
me that the detrimental influence of such
arpractice on the part OF the teacher is
not as great as 1t is painted, Parents do
not understand; slang goes a long way in
affective classroom management.
THE 'slangy' teacher presents a curious
analogy. The children bring great stories
home about her. Of what she had to say
20 this and to that person upon this and
that occasion. Frankly, we are shocked.
but we don't say as much as we might;
somehow or other we realize that the
children like her immensely and to speak
disparagingly would be to spoil certain
influence she has unconsciously gained
over them. Besides, their work Is i'm
proving. So we postpone our decision
until we meet Miss r. at the faculty re-
ception. Then we are completely taken
back. We flnd her young woman of
refinement and 'culture-with perfect
English at her command--just the sort
of person with whom we were wishing
William might come In contact. We ask
her about the slang and she merely
smiles. Miss r. knows what she is about.
"A case in point comes to my mind.
Miss M. might easily be rated as the most
successful teacher In school. Tho boys
and girls would work their hands of for
her. Outside of the school building her
speech was the most correct, but in the
classroom, when dealing with children,
she employed slang constantly. 1t was
quite a common thing for her to tell
child he was or his bean or to can that
noise Upon one occasion n boy who
talked incessantly and with tho loud
booming voice common to the early
teens was told to shut his trap The

mates went a good bit further toward
the reformation of Harold than quiet
little talk from his teacher would ever
have gone
"slang, then, is really a classroom aid.
To approach a child SO as to win his con-
fldence It is necessary to meet him upon
a level. Nothing affords this level as
readily as the talk Of the street. This Is

Salt and Its Many Uses

70 the Editor OF Wonun's Page:
Dear Madam am sending you n few HuE-
sessions for the use of salt:
~ To poRch eggs properly; Always add lit
tls pinch OF salt TO the water In which eggs are
b, ing poached TO set the whites. .
~ To whip cream rapidly: pinch of salt
Vail cause cream to whip more easily and rap
l3l To keep icing from sugaElng; Add a
pInoh Of salt TO the sugar, and the icing will
not grain and turn to sugar.
l4l TO keep nre going: Sprinkle little salt
over the kitchen hre after IL IL made and II
wall keep going for hours without requiring
a. tenton.
l5l TO crack nuts and leave the meats whole
To crack nuts properly soak in salt water over
night apply the hammer to the end and ths
meats VIII come out whole, Soaking In the
salt water also improves tne flavor.
Hoping that these hints may do you some
6cod and may see them in print, am
