SANDWICHES AND OTHER
TEA TABLE DAINTIES

Sandwiches of various kinds and di-
mensIons ar" always a good beginning
Better have the loaf a day old, and
sandwich bread, close crumb is the
best TO make them with. Spread the
butter on smoothly and add a thin layer
of nut paste. The top slice will not
need butter. Trim the crusts off and
cut dagonslly across. Even smaller
sandwiches. making four out OF the
square, are large enough for the bite
Finger rolls, very fresh. with II soft
crust and paste made of chicken
mashed with the yolks of eggs, boiled
six or seven minutes and just a little
milk to make il smooth, are very ap-
petizIng. Graham bread. buttered and
sliced the same as the sandwich loaf,
spread with A mixture Of jam and
cream cheese, is very nice, too
Meat minced very fine with some
milk to moisten ii for smooth spread
ing, or thin slices Of tongue with
sra ham bread makes good sandwiches.
Fresh Boston brown bread. mashed
with cream cheese and sugar and made
into balls. like butter, only smooth and
larger, looks like great chocolate
creams and makes delicious tidbit
Meats that are potted and already
minced into a paste for spreading of

bread.
