TROU BILE

TAP'N PENNYWINKLE and Cur
ly, his sea~horse, had had a terri
bic time while the Twins were away
on their errand, and when they re-
turned with the fish-net, there was
the greatest connection ever at the
CROSSROADS, where the fairyman po-
liceman was trying to keep order.
You see Tub Terrapin was lying flat
on his tummy right in the way of
traffic and everybody had to go
round. Cap'n Pennywinkle was so
absorbed, trying to get him out of
the way, that he didn't have time to
direct the other big fishes that came
swimming by. The first thing he
knew, hadn't the old saw-fish bumped
into a big sea-weed tree, not looking
where he was going at all, at all.
and the first thing everybody knew,
his big sharp saw had cut the tree
down and there it lay in everybody's
road. AS though that helped matters
any!
And the next thing, didn't Mr.
Swordfish come laundering along
with his long sharp nose, not look
ing where he was going and didn't he
ram right into the big thick trunk
of the sea-weed tree and there he
stuck, taking up all the spare room
there was, nearly.
When the Twins returned, Cap'n
Pennywinkle and Curly were pranc-

SISTER MARY'S
KITCHEN
SQUASH BECOMES A DELICACY
By Sister Mary

GQUASH is peculiarly an autumn
~ vegetable. 1t ripens late in the
season and will keep for several
months in a dry cool place. A good
winter squash should have Il very
hard shell and be heavy in proportion
to its size. AS squash is a starchy veg
etable the remainder of a meal in
GLIDING squash should be scanty in
starch.
The simplest way and perhaps the
most satisfactory is to bake squash.
If a squash is a bit watery baking
is the only thing to do. If very dry,
crack the shell, cut in pieces conven-
lent to handle, remove shell and seeds
and cut in dices. Put in stew pan,
pour over boiling water to cover ans
boil until tender. Drain and mash and
season with salt and pepper and but
| ter.
To bake squash cut in halves. Re-
| move seeds and bake about an hour
| in a moderate oven. Remove from
shell, mash and season with salt and
pepper and butter.
Squash makes quite as good pies
as pumpkin. Bake it or boil it and
rub through colander.
Squash Pie
One cup cooked and sifted squash,
1-2 cup sugar, l IA cups milk, ia
blespoon melted butter, l egg, IA
teaspoon salt, IA teaspoon ginger, l
teaspoon lemon juice.
Mix sugar, salt, ginger and lemon
juice with squash. Add melted but

milk slowly. Pour into a pie pan
lined with pastry and bake in a slow
over after the first five minutes. The
