} NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS.

The people who indulge in honeyed
phrases seldom have any fear OF eating
their own words.
Sc ~ 49, -
Lenten dishes this year have no
worriment for the housewife who has
been keeping lent all winter by meat
less, wheatless, porkless days. Eggs
are at present so high that when using
them the frugal cook tries to extend
them by adding something to the dish
which will give bulk and not detract
from the attractiYeness of it.
One good dish may be made by using
rice with egg. Put quarter Of cup
full of rice well washed into frying
pan with little sweet chicken fat {;
fry it until yellow, then add some
chicken broth or, lacking that any
good vegetable liquor which has been
saved because of it's mineral content.
Cook until the rice is tender, season
and stir in three eggs, carefully cook
ing, add butter, salt, paprika, and
serve as scrambled eggs. This dish
will serve five or six people, saving
two or three eggs.

quently cleansed. There should, in
fact, be no part of any food container
that cannot be cleaned. For this rea-
son the simplest boxes and baskets are
often better than the more elaborate
ones with compartments in which to
keep dishes, knives, forks and spoons.
With the increase in automobile travel,
well-conStructed boxes and baskets
which can be easily cleaned have come
on the market with compartments for
keeping food hot or cold and for hold
ing liquids. These are, of course, suit
able only for children who ride back
and forth, and particularly suitable
where several lunches are put up in
one household.

the whole world. England boosted
about twenty varieties of glass. The
United States produced none whatever.
England's product was not nearly suf-
ficient to meet the demand of the al
lies and Britain found 1t necessary at
the beginning of the war to collect all
field glasses and small telescopes own

Doctor Washburn then told how
America is meeting the same problem
under the direction Of special COM
mittee on optical glass manufacture.
''As result of activities of this
commission" according to Professor
Washburn, American industry is now

Prison Labor Bill Provides
For Use of Inmates of Penal
Institutions in Road Making

Many state and county administra-
lions are utilizing prison labor in road
work.
Governor Brough of Arkansas has
announced that rs to 100 convicts will
be used continuously on road work in
his state. A sentiment is growing in
favor of imprisoning all Migrants and
placing them at work on county high
ways. This method Of utilizing pris-
on labor, where it is conducted under,
proper conditions, has always had the
Endorsement of the national committee

LUNCH HOUR FOR
SCHOOL kIDD|ES
Government Food Specialists Dis
cuss Various Foods for
Children.
SUGGESTED BILLS OF FARE
Skimping Meals for Youngsters Is
Not Necessary War Measure
and Is lnadvisabIe-MetaI
Boxes Most Favored.

The school lunch has always had it's
problems for the mother who is eager
to provide wholesome noon repast for
her school kiddies. Almost always the
school lunch is a hurriedly arranged
item among the mothers early morn
ing duties, and it is sometimes difficult
to give this meal the attention it de-
serves.
Wars food conservation problems
have not helped in the matter of
school-lunch preparation, but if any of
the family is entitled to some immun-
ity to food regulations, it is the grow
ing child who eats one of his meals
the opinion of the food experts of the
United States department of agricul-
ture, skimping meals for the young
sters is not necessary war measure
and is inadvisable. The food special
lists have discussed in a publication Of
the department Of agriculture the
foods that should make up the school
lunch, the preparation and packing of
lunches, and serving lunches partly or
wholly prepared at schools. Some sug-
gested bills of fare for the basket
lunch are given In another column.
Number of Foods Carried.
The number of foods that can be
easily carried has been enlarged of
late by the possibility Of using paraffin
paper and parchment paper, in which
moist foods can be wrapped so as to
prevent them from sticking to other
foods. Paper cups, jelly glasses and
so on, are also help, for in them
sliced raw fruits, stewed fruits, Gus
tards, cottage cheese and other half
solid foods can be carried.
The quality of the bread used in the
basket lunch is especially important
because it is commonly served in the
form of sandwiches and is, therefore,
to be considered not only as food in
itself but also as a means Of keeping
other much-needed foods in good and
appetizing condition, or of serving
them in attractive ways.
Variety in breads, too, is more i'm
portant at this than at other meals
because of the danger Of monotony
Wheat bread, whole-wheat bread, corn,
rye, or oatmeal breads; nut, raisin,
and date breads; beaten biscuit, rolls
crisp baking-powder biscuit, or soda
biscuit, and toast, Ewieback and crack
ers may be used in turn to give variety
Rolls followed out can be made to
hold large amount Of sandwich fill
ing, which is an advantage at times.
Advantage of Boxes.
Many kinds of lunch boxes, pals,
and baskets are now on the market.
The chief advantage of most boxes and
pals is that they are made of metal
and can, therefore, be easily cleaned
and scalded to keep them in safe con-
dition. Some boxes have the advan-
tage over pals that they can be folded
when empty and strapped with the
school books. Baskets are ventilated
and for this reason suitable for carry
| ing moist foods which are likely to
spoil. There is no reason, however,
why small holes cannot be punched in
metal boxes or pals to let in the air.
Baskets can, of course, be washed or
scalded, but not so easily as metal

Mashed Potato Dishes.

Most housekeepers know how de-
licious mashed potatoes can be made
by beating them until light with hot
milk, butter or other good fat, and salt
and pepper, four tablespoonfuls Of hot
milk and one teaspoonful Of the fat
for every medium-sized potato. To
make the mashed potatoes little "dif-
ferent," they can be turned into po-
tato souffie by adding the beaten white
of eggs 1.-TWO eggs to six medium-sized
potatoes), piling lightly in baking
dish and baking in the oven till brown.
Grated cheese added to this soufie is
