Aim Of English Institutes.
In describing before a group of ex-
tension specialists the plan and scope
of the women's Institutes in England,
Miss Zimmerman explained that the
aim of these organizations is social
as we'll as educational. Women of
various interests and in different
walks of life are urged to join them
for the sake of community solidarity.
The regular meetings are social in ma
ture, including lectures, pageants, his
torical, musical and dramatic enter
tainments, folk and period dancing
and similar features in which all can
participate. In addition there are
great variety of classes. conducted in
which any woman, who wishes to, can
learn to do or make something which
saves expenditure or by which she
can earn money. Such work as max
ing rush seats, gloves, bags, uphol-
stery, umbrella covers, blouses, white
washing or soldering is in great de-
r,ond Tho ipstitutas racamble eytpn-
sion work in that voluntary local lead
ers do a great deal of the actual in
struction. They attend special train
ing classes at their own expense and
must pass tests before they can
qualify as instructors. One-half of the
expense of conducting the institutes is
raised locally, the remainder is borne
by the British department of agri-
culture but the state support is to be
withdrawn.
Fixed Annual Charge.
The Institutes differ from our extern
sion groups in that a fixed annual
charge of shillings is made, and
there are other small fees for class
instruction and for any refreshments
served at meetings. Apparently no
meetings occur, either in the daytime
or evening, without the customary
English cup of tea, but the usual
charge of pence seems to be cheer
fully met by all of the many members
who find that both the social and edu-
cational aspects of the institutes add
much to their enjoyment of life.

AS q result of a recent visit to the
United States Department of Agricul-
ture, an Englishwoman has become so
keenly interested in the making of
gummed-paper dress forms as an aid
to home sewing that she intends to
introduce this labor-saving device to
English housewives as soon as she re-
turns. through the medium of wom-
ems Institutes. Miss Minnie thinner
man, the visitor, is president of the
Loughton Woman's institute in Essex,
near London, which has about $40
members. AS there are over 1000
similar local women's institutes scat
tered throughout England, and as it
is required that members "glve as
well as get" instruction in practical
new ways of doing things, the paper

up widely in England as 1t has been
in the United States. Thousands of

Cranberry pie may be made of Gran.
berry sauce or cranberries, either with
or without raisins. When equal parts
of raisins and cranberries are used it
is often called ''mock cherry" pie.
Cranberry pies are usually made with
out top crust, although lattice of
pastry strips may be used, or a
meringue may be spread over the top
and delicately Drowned In variation
of mock cherry" pie, chopped, pitted,
cooked prunes are substituted for
raisins.
Cranberries may be introduced in
many dishes where cherries would be
used in the spring. A hot steamed pud-
ding, made by biscuit dough recipe,
is excellent If one cupful of cranber-
ries Is stirred In for each pint of flour.
Cranberries may be used in richer
steamed puddings with more eggs and
other ingredients; they may be put
into baked or boiled bread puddings,
cabinet" or stale-cake pudding, or
plain batter pudding. Most of these
desserts require a sauce of some sort.
A soft hard" sauce is excellent with
any of them, or liquid sauce, such as
foamy or lemon sauce, thickened with
egg and cornstarch, or cranberry
sauce itself. Cranberry souffle can be
made If 1t is not necessary to econo-
miZe on eggs. Steamed brown bread
may have cranberries in it.
Candied cranberries are easy to
make and have many uses. The Unit
ed States Department of Agriculture
has recipe for preparing them which
will be furnished to those Interested.
They can be put into many of the des-
serts mentioned instead of fresh cram
berries, and used in all the ways in
which glazed cherries are used
Dropped in batter and fried, candied
cranberries make unusual fritters as
an accompaniment to meat or for
luncheon dessert. They are good on
or in ice cream, in cake icing. on cook
les, in mixed fruit gelatins, in coffee
rings, buns or other raised doughs
dipped In sweet chocolate, or eaten
just as they are.
A very good cranberry relish or con-
serve can be made of cranberries.
sugar, raisins, orange peel and juice,
vinegar, sugar and spices. The proper
tions are about the same as In other
fruit conserves containing oranges snd
raisins.

Different WAYS OF
USING CRANBERRIES
They Help Greatly to Replace
Fruits and Berries

prepared by the United States Department
of Agriculture)
Cranberries have many uses in addi-
ton to the traditional sauce or jelly
that accompanies the Thanksgiving
and Christmas turkeys. Coming on
the market, as they do, when cold
weather begins, they help to replace
the fresh fruits and berries that have
disappeared from the menu, and fur
nish fruit acids and other valuable
constituents needed in the diet.
Cranberry sauce is, of course, the
easiest use for these berries, because
it takes but few minutes to cook the
cranberries and sugar sufficiently.
When made with a small amount of
water the sauce will be firm enough
to turn out of molds when cold. Any
good cookbook gives directions for
making cranberry sauce to accompany
turkey or other poultry. When cram
berry Jelly is preferred the sauce must
be strained. Cranberry ice or sherbet,
made with the juice of fresh berries,
Is often served with the meat course
Instead of the more common cranberry
sauce.
Either the sauce or jelly may be
stored, like any other preserves, in
sterilized glasses covered with paraffin.
1t is then useful as a spread for bread,
as sandwich filling, in tart shells
for desserts, on ice cream or plain
blanc mango, on shortcake, as sauce
for hot cake-like desserts such as cot
tage pudding or puffs, with pancakes.
in Jelly rolls. layer cake or charlotte
russo.
In addition to being spread on short
cake, cranberry sauce can be combined
with biscuit dough in several ways
Served in a baking dish, covered with
a biscuit top. 1t becomes cranberry
cobbler"; spread on a square of bis
cult dough, such as one makes for
Dutch apple cake, and then baked, 1t
makes a cranberry cake, which many
people would prefer to tart or other
pastry.
