GETTING READY TO MOVE.

Social Corner Sisters; Probably there are more who are thinking Of moving than who are actually getting ready. There is nothing dread more than nov ing, and yet some move 50 often 1t seems as though they must like it.
 But whether there Is any love lost over it or not, there it a right and a wrong way to move. and # the proper thought and time is given to it much ot the terror is removed.
 The small things that are not in daily use should be packed hrst---such as pie turess small mirrors, bric-a-brac and what china can be spared. This Is 6 splendid time to oull out all the useless ing for years
 Pictures should be matched In size as nearly as possible and tied in pairs with firm balls of crushed newspaper betwefh ther. enc q each corner of the frames

5 GREETINGS FROM O. IT. Q.

Dear Social Corner Friends: Thanks, Ola. for your reply. You probably mo- ticed in the Goshen news that the minis ter who was host at the meeting the day we were together has gone with his fam fly to visit friends across the water They must be most home now It is pleasant to take such trips as you spoke of. have been in Hartford several times. A number of years ago I and mother went to the top of the capitol dome and I have been to the top of Bun ker Hill monument.
 Rainbow Yes it is lonely since I laid father, mother and husband to rest, but such is life. don't mind it so much in the morning, but when it comes night with nothing to be heard but the tick ing of the clock then is when it gets on one's nerves.
 We'll. .cowslips had started in good shape. but perhaps the freeze of Sat- nrday night hurt them and the arbutus, but hope not. fl

DOESN'T LIKE ADVANCED TIME.

Dear Cornerites: I am wondering how
 many of the writers favor the daylight
 saving hour. Last year I sputtered equal
 to Roxanna Wince's fried pies when
 April was set back among the dark
 mornings.
 This year there is an improvement but
 hubby has to take an early car, SO the
 morning meal is prepared by artificial fuel. have been counting the weeks in the almanac and find there will be seven when I can manage without extra light,
 all of the rest of the year will be dark mornings.
 The farmers hours are many and to have this added hardship 1t is no won der they can hardly get help to assist them. Think of getting up at o'clock and earlier so they can get to the sta tions and their customers with milk. A farmer told me that he and others
 who do not sell milk go by the Lords time. They do not have to watch the clocks now the freak law is forced upon us. What a nixup for travellers with the trains running an hour ahead of their clocks. Good night! Others may like tfle new time but am tired of it. a BLANCHE. .

Dear Social Corner Friends: It Is pleasing to see how many of the writers are helping our new editor to make The Corner. page interesting.
 aJan.e Many thanks for the lines on fashions. They we're good take-off on the way the girls and some older ones are dressing.
 If we. were not living now in prohibi- ton times we would think the Photoera- pher. had been taking little too much i'booze'' atithe time the picture was taken of someone in Sterling reported to be Rural Delivery. Let us give the req son: In the first place. we have never run a car or carried the mall, our hair has never been red, and as yet we are not crossreyed. In regard to the good impression on girls. we have always been very fortunate and had our shars of their most excellent comnany.

HOW TO cooK ouAHAuGs.

 ,. I will, tell you. now how cook qua,s haugs. We do not live very near the shore but quite often my men folks go
 and dig a tide, always bringing home a nice mess of quahaugs and clans both
 which we enjoy very much. In the sum-
 nler time we all go. I mean by all, the
 men, women and children and all the friends we can pile in. We carry our Supplies. dig and cook our clans right
 there and have an enjoyable day ard a
 lovely ride beside. There have been as
 many as four auto loads. s
 Now about the quahaugsa T have the
 good man cut them out--ard by the way
 it takes quite a lot, as they shrink a, lot II drain them in a colander, roll ir cracker crumbs. heat a large drinpins pan with dripping or better pork fat and butter mixed. Have more hot fat on the stove. put the quahaug in the hot fat pour more over them and put in oven and bake until brown. It makes q most delicious eat for those who like shell hsh IS much easier than frying as they always spatter so.

FEoWER LOVER PAINTS OWN PIC
 TURF AND SENDS RECIPE.


 Editor Social Corner: The Social Cor Ter of your paper has interested me for long time. But always had a faint suspicion that the letter writers were all fictitious people. Not long ago I was in- formed they were real folks" So I won dered if you would allow me to join the ranks. Of course you will want to know something about me. It is hard to de- scribe oneself. But I'll try to pen vivid picture of me. I have brown hair and seyes--two eyes--wear a small switch made of my own combings,. have few false teeth, am good looking enough so that people never turn to look at me the second time and in age I am old enough. am five foot three. Wish I was taller. Also I love the woods and lots of flowers. In fact. am nature lover. I have a great possession in the best husband in the world. Now think you should know me well enough to know me anywhere. My character is o. K. as far as it goes, but I really think lit should be stronger and firiner. am also a lover of food. like to eat 80 well that whenever I join an organi. zation they immediately put me on a supper committee live way up in the northeastern corner of Connecticut in a very pretty little. mill city,.
 E I am going to enclose a recipe for a date cake which we like very much. Il 2is moist and will keep long time. Also Fit contains no eggs:
 Date Cakc-One cup sugar, one-hali cup butter, cream, add one cup sour milk flavoring. Then add mixed together two cups hour, one teaspoon soda.. two ta
 blespoons cocoa then one pound stoned and chopped dates Bake slowly anC frost or not. A white frosting looks nice Sometimes add chopped nuts.
 Now if I see this in the Corner will
 be encouraged to come again and try ts write something that will be better read Ting. E A FLOWER LOVER.
