noodles. Instead Of cutting the
sheets of dough into fine strips she
slashes them into small squares, puts
spoonful of the minced mixture on
each and pinches the ends together.
These little "dumplings" are then
dropped into boiling water or broth
and cooked half an hour, then served
with tomato sauce. They are like
the ravioli Of the italians.
Green peppers are delicious
stuffed with boiled noodles and
chopped ham moistened with tomato
juice. Place in the oven until the
peppers are tender, adding q very
little water to the dish.
A Meal in the Dish
For good one-dish meal fry one
half pound of thin bacon strips until
brown and curly, remove from the
fat and add one pound Of round
steak (ground) and two onions
chopped fine. Add two green pep
pers, one can of tomatoes, salt and
pepper, and when boiling stir in one
quart Of noodles that have been
cooking in separate pan. Cook
until thick and serve on q large
platter garnished with the bacon
strips and grated cheese IL desired.

to WELD and one might feel the ne
cessity of some such measure as that
adopted by the bride who ran her
first batch through the new clothes
wringer. The moment one may han
die the dough without having it stick
to the hands Is the time to start the
rolling-out process, and then remem-
ber to keep plenty of -four on the
board during the entire procedure.
For efficiency's sake it may be de-
sirable to make the noodles in GUAM
tity, in which case they should be
left to thoroughly dry before stor-
ing. Cheesecloth sacks that NAV be
hung in dry place are the best con-
tainers for this extra supply, and, of
course, the finer they are cut the
sooner will they dry. Paper cartons,
not too tightly covered, also make
good receptacles.
PIN Money" i'm Noodles
An old lady who has made her pin
money for several years selling
homemade noodles uses this method,
which have never known to fail:
Break one egg into bowl, add half
the eggshell full of cold water and
beat with a fork until foamy. Grad
ually add -four until the mixture is
stiff enough to turn out onto
Toured board, then with the hands
continue to knead in flour until the
dough loses all sickness. Now
break off piece and roll it, first in
one direction, then another, until it
is as thin as paper, keeping enough
flour under and over 1t to avoid any
sticking. Rub this sheet Of dough
with -four and lay aside while the
remainder is being similarly treated.
Lay the sheets one over the other,
then form into roll. With heavy,
sharp knife proceed to slice it into
fine shreds. If the roll is a long
one bring the two ends together and
cut through both with che same
stroke. There is a convenient noodle
cutter on the market which saves
much labor but does not cut as fine

Make Noodles and How Serve Them as Side or Main Dishes

Modern cooks discount this practice,
however, and it is not unusual to
drop the noodles into the kettle as
soon as cut, although it does no
harm to spread them out on a well
Toured surface and leave for several
hours.
''Elbow Grease" the Main In
gredient
The real secret of perfect noodles
lies in the elbow. The dough should
be rolled to paper thinness, and to
do this In the easiest manner the
batch should bs divided into halves
or quarters. If the mixture is too
stiff the rolling pin will be difficult

ROM the dayswhen the Indians
parched corn and the house
wives ground their own corn
meal down to the present time, when
we purchase our various forms Of
corn in packages and cans, 1t has al
ways been q distinctive American
dish, and belongs to our country Just
as. does macaroni to Italy and rice
to the Chinese.
Used as 1t may be in meals,
cereals, canned, faxed and popped,
it may be prepared in 80 many
tempting and diverse ways that the
family will not tire Of it, and as it
is hearty and nourishing food it
should appear at least once or twice
daily ON the home table.
Corn Meal Variations
Corn meal lends itself to the MAX
ing Of perhaps the best hot breads
for breakfast-at least Southerners
think so--and, combined with bits Of
chopped pork, meat ioaves or sau-
sage, 1t furnishes the delicious
scrapple for which Philadelphia is
so Justly famous.
The Italians also make delicious
dish from this same meal and call it
''polenta." This is generally made
from corn meal mush, either blended
with cheese and then nodded or the
mush nodded plain, and then
when firm is cut in slices and baked
with layers Of cheese in baking
dish. In either method Of cooking a
savory tomato sauce accompanies it.
Plain corn meal mush needs no rec
omnendatior, but have you tried it
with the addition Of q beaten egg
and little butter stirred in as it
cones boiling hot from the double
boiler? Cooked in this way and
served with shaved maple sugar and
cream, It forms 8 meal in itself,
only be sure that there is enough for
second helpings."
Corn Flakes for Dessert
The preparations Of faxed corn
in addition to being a good cereal
furnish a splendid substitute for
pastry, especially when there are
children to be considered. A good
example OF this Is given in the recipe
for mock peach tart. They are
again used in the prune whip for
Thursdays dinner and in the char
lotte for Sunday. For the whip they
are busted In layers between those

lightly to separate the strips, either
throwing them at once into the ket-
tie or allowing to stand until wanted.
Noodles are sometimes cut into
fanciful shapes and used for gar
nlshing, and the best way to do this
is to lay the sheets of dough togeth-
er, with a sprinkling of flour be-
tween, and stamp with a sharp tin
cutter. The liquid should always be
boiling before the noodles are
dropped into it, the cover put on
tightly and left for fifteen or twen-
ty minutes. For soup allow cup
full Of noodles to one quart of liquid,
and If a clear consomme is to be
served cook the noodles first in boil
ing water to prevent cloudiness.

CNo MANY young cooks, and older
\ ones too, are hesitant about at
tempting the good. old-fash-
ioned, homemade noodle; yet it re-
quires Less skill than good pastry or
cake, which are frequently the first
arts learned by the new housekeeper.
Perhaps this diffldence may be
ascribed to the tradition prevalent
in grandmother's day--and still
preached by some---that the product
should be subjected to long drying
process, which procedure lacks ap-
peal to generation that wants
what 1t wants when It wants it."

entered the station but officer Bau
schelt tells different tale. He AYERS
that "Polly and her pals" parked for
a considerable time at a West Side
park, but later went to the Chicago
Northwestern station where he picked
up the trio. When asked why she
didn't return to Chicago where she
states her aunt lives, the girl replied
that she was out Of funds as she had
