CLUB No. 1 MEETING.

Dear Sisters of the Social Corner An other red letter day for the Corner has come and left its remembrance for a good time. in the minds of many Sisters. January 19th is recorded as the first meeting for Club No. at Franklin hall, Willimantic- The early part of the morning did not bid fair for pleasant weather conditions, but as sisters of the Corner do not allow such trifles to n- terfere with 9 good social time, they ar rived Just the same. Those who came by steam cars were perhaps among the earliest, and as that being my mode of conveyance, it was quite the habit of out-of-towners. to do a little shopping before reaching our meeting place at the hall One of the most attractive stores in every city or large town is that of Woofworth's so of course, that serves as s preliminary place where some of the sisters first meet, and exchange the pleasant greetings with a kindly hand shake The yellow bow on the door, at the foot of the stairs. serves as a cordial reminder, that the latch string is hanging out, so we proceed up two flights of stairs. and another yellow bow awaits ua

In cold weather food will keR several days and no matter how close one plans there is usually little left over of various things. I thought I would tell you of soup we had for supper the other night of things many [ would have thrown out. I put four potatoes sliced one small carrot cut fine 1 and a small onion sliced thin on to cook | in about quart of water. When the vegetables were tender added my stock of left overs which consisted of one cup, roast beef gravy, one half cup creanned canned corn two tablespoons of l baked beans and one cup creamed dried beef. When the vegetables were cooking I added salt pepper and poultry dressing to season. When I do not have the latter l use ground safe. After the mixture boiled up added some macaroni which I had cooked in a separate pan. made this while I was getting dinner and left
 
 til time to reheat it for supper and 1t was just fine. I never used to think such things it to eat. but, have got 30 ] think they taste pretty good and ] think the more variety one has the bet ter. Some times if I do not have very much I add can of soup
 Now I have lot Of questions to ask Some weeks ago one sister wrote oa using dried apples but did not give any recipe I wondered if she would tell how to make dried apple cake, My mother used to make 1t and it was 50 good D. I not know how she did it, only that sht cooked the apple first in nnolaSses bu ] don't know the proportion. Second Doe. any one know how to hull corn witt wood ashes and how much corn does on, use? My mother used to make it and 1 was fine. She thought 1t was nicer mad, with ashes than with soda. I tried once, but it all went to mush. Guess used too many.

 Now the feurth question Is for friend who IS very stout and is anNou to try the Koreifn remedy.
