Cheese for FIavoring.

We Americans like to disregard nu-
tritive value of many usual foods and
to look on them instead as aids to the
appetite. This is the way we look on
lcheese-especially in summer. And. as
cheese is a rather heavy food, 1t is a
very good way to look on 1t in sum-
mer. For taste of cheese. touch
of it. does add to the piquancy OF
flavor of many a dish.
Cheese sandwiches are good for
luncheon made either of cream cheese.
Swiss cheese or American cheese; and
these really contain enough cheese to
be Of considerable food value. To make
them cut thin slices Of bread. put two
together with slice of cheese be-
tween. and toast. the outside Of the
sandwich.
Add little grated chese to almost
any leftover summer vegetable. ADD
also cream sauce and plenty OF salt
sort, and brown in the oven for de-
licious dish. Caulilower, cabbage, po-
tatotes. onions. kohl rabi-all are good
prepared in this way.
Crate all dried up ends of cheese and
keep them in a glass jar, tightly cover

cheese is needed. This cheese can be

On this particular morning Plunger
was having no luck at all. Perhaps it

P|unger the Fish Hawk
Catches a Prize.
BY THORNTON w. BURGESS.

Billy Mink and Little Joe Otter do
most of their fishing in the Laughing
Brook or the Smiling Pool and are con-
tent with rather small fish, so long as
there are plenty of them Buster Bear
is another fisherman who does all his
fishing in, the Laughing Brook. This
is because Buster does not want to
leave the Green Forest. His cousin,
Bobby Coon. is also>quite content with
what he can catch in the Laughing
Brook. Longlegs the Heron often fishes
along the edge of the Big River, but
he. too, is content with minnows and
pollywogs.
But it is not so with Plunger the Fish
Hawk. No, indeed. He wastes no time
on the little fish of the Laughing Brook
or the Smiling Pool Once in a while
he fishes in the Smiling Pool when his
keen eyes discover fish there which
is worth catching. but most of his fish
ing is done in the Big River. Every
day he and Mrs. Plunger fly over to the
Big River. One goes up the. Big River

The New Kind of Belt.

actually worn by the peasantry Of all

Recently II has been enlarged either
by Cheruit or by her colleagues in
France to girdle or sash which some
what resembles the military one worn
by young cadet officers.
In truth. one Of the gray blouses of
Georgette crepe worn with gray linen
skirt is trimmed with bands Of silver
braid running across the front and at
the wrists. 1t is fastened with silver
buttons UP to the chin and is girdled
with a dull red sash dropped to one
side and knotted. the whole scheme be-

Using Picot-Edged Ribbon.

Not only France but the American
mills have flooded the country with an
astonishing variety of colored ribbons
with a simple or ornate picot edge.
They have invented a method of put
ting gold and silver edges running
along in tiny loops on taffeta ribbon
IN bright colors.
Green with gold edge. and blue
with silver edge, are the ribbons
that are used in France for summer
dance and dinner gowns. The narrow
ribbon which has merely a flicker of
loops or sharp picot edging is used on
thin blouses and frocks in lieu of SOU
tache braid, which has again made its
appearance as a method of ornament
ing everyday clothes.
