modern one. and is jammed with sur
prises and thrills. 1t presents Miss
Gordon in. the role of Betty Carbon,
one of the most effective and interest

ing Miss Gordon is a notable cast,
headed by Irving Cummings, who
plays opposite Miss Gordon in the role
Of Blair Carbon, Betty Gardens hus-
band.

When Hubby Brings

If every housewife would try to
have on hand a fruit cake and few
cans of vegetables she would never
find herself embarrassed when the

it makes a very good desert when
steamed and served with a lemon
auce.
This Is How.
! FRUIT CAKE: One cupful of but
ter, 1-2 cupful of powdered sugar, 2
cupfuls of -four. 6 eggs. liz pound

| strained juice of a large lemon into

CREAM TOMATO-Put 2 quarts of
milk in a double boiler, let it come
to a boil. Put in a stewpan a can
