Like Mother Used To Make"

Like Mother Used To Make
America is a good cook, but an
extravagant one. She is apt to throw
away perfectly good food she is
apt to make a good loaf OF bread or
lemon pie on one Thursday and a
poor one on the next Thursday.
When the pie or bread is good she
boasts that she never measures any
thing, when it is bad she boasts not,
neither does she apologize; she ac-
cepts it as one accepts rainy day
--philosophically.
But America should this day
change her habits, boast less and
measure more, and make nothing
but good bread and good pie.
A good cook is what is known in
the artistic and literary world as
good craftsman. And a good crafts
man in any art means an intelligent
worker who accomplishcs his aim
most exactly with the least effort.
An artist must know his proportions
before he can correct errors and so,
too, our housekeeper must know
exactly what she is doing, else on
one Thursday she may make a good
lemon pie and on the next a poor
lemon pie.
If you want to make potato bread
rolls "like mother used to make" do
not just put in some potato, some
flour, piece OF this and that, but

president also restored the rights of
