TERRORS ENDURED BY SAILORS
ON SUBMARINES MOST

cess of the German submarine. It's
failures are cloaked in an impene-
trable secrecy. 1t requires an effort
to visualize all the sweating agony
of fear. all the minutes that are cen
turtles in passing when deathly dis
aster is half fathom away, all the
nerve-wracking intensity of mental
concentration that never ceases while
the submarine is at sea. Perhaps
only the man with submarine expert

such warfare.

boning chicken:
Lay chicken on a board, breast

knife, cut through the skin the en-

from the backbone until end of one
shoulder blade is found; scrape
flesh from shoulder blade and con-

through tendinous portions which
are encountered; then bone other

crop and windpipe; continue down
breastbone, particular care being
taken not to break the skin as IL lies
very near bone, or to cut the delioate
membranes, which enclose entrails.
Serape flesh from second joints and
drumsticks, laying it back and
drawing of as glove may be drawn
from the hand. Withdraw carcass
and put flesh back in its original
shape. In large birds where wings
are boned, scraPe flesh to middle
joint, where bone should be broken,
leaving bone at tip end to assist in
preserving shape.

oIeOmargarine an Alternative for
Butter.
Oleomargarine is recommended to
all housewives by the u. s. govern
ment for table use and for cooking
as one of the purest foods that they
are endorsing.
All home managers, whether mem
bers of the housewives league or
any other food conservation organi-
Zation, have responded to the call of
the President and Mr.. Hoover to
conserve food and eliminate waste.
In this way, although they have had
no sons to offer to their country,
many have done their bit
Women of unlimited wealth, with
privilege to buy and serve expensive
fooCJ have with a most commendable
spirit ceased using the foods our
government wishes to conserve. 1t
is evident that q spirit of patriotism
and a desire to share with others has
prompted this denial among many of
our citizens, and proves that We are
all one big American family with
one end in view.
Oleomargarine is available always
for use in any place where butter
might be used. Now people know
that oleomargarine is not butter
substitute, but an alternative food
which stands on its own inertia

Cook Cocoa
Thoroughly

Very few housewives make good
cocoa. This is perhaps due to the
fact that, on some cocoa packages,
the recipe directs the housewife to
put teaspoon of cocoa in cup and
fill the cup with boiling water This
Is usually titled 'Cne Minute Cocoa"
According to the United States
government figures the average
cocoa contains 37.7 per cent of
starch. Any food high in starch
content needs thorough cooking and
cocoa is no exception 1t should be
cooked over the direct heat long
enough to combine the cocoa and
sugar and then finish in a double
boiler or fireless cooker.
The best cocoa is made by mixing
equal quantities of cocoa and sugar,
then adding enough cold water to
make a smooth paste. Add boiling
water and cook over the direct heat,
stirring constantly until it boils.
Then put into double boiler or
hreless cooker and allow to continue
cooking over night. This mixture
may be kept for several days, il
necessary.
When ready to serve add an equal
quantity of milk and heat but do not
boil after the milk is added.
Cocoa has high food value. The
average cocoa as purchased contains
1890 calories per pound.
A very rich and nutritious cocoa is
made by the above method using
Evaporated Milk, instead of the ordi-
nary milk.

appear on the table. in both private
homes and boarding houses The rea-
son given was that they called for

Those home managers seemed not
to realize that those foods need not
be dispensed with il they would use
some of the alternative shortcomings
and economy recipes which are avail
able for all.
A Pure Vegetable Shortening.
Lard Is rather high at present and
will continue high so long as pork

People at times have felt that
bacon was a luxury because the price
seemed high, but how indispensable
they have found 1t. There is no waste
and from every serving Of bacon
cooked one gets excellent drippings
which can be used in place OF either
