Prepared by the United States Department
of Agricultural
Have you ever timed yourself wash
ing dishes, or doing any of the other
less agreeable tasks. to see whether
there was any way Of shortening the
work? Or noticed what motions you
make with your hands during this and
other daily jobs? Or how many steps
you take in connection with a meal.
particularly when o are clearing the
table and washing the china and other
utensils used during the meal and Its
preparation? Every motion requires
energy. and unnecessary motions use
up unnecessary energy, leaving one
fatigued with no real gain. And when
actual minutes are saved, they can
be put to more interesting uses than
the routine of daily dishwashlng.
One of the best ways 10 observe
yourself. SAYS the United States De
partment of Agriculture, is to make a
time. method and motion study of the
different duties about the house. 1t
will add zest to the homework. help
TO make n see measures necessary
for reform. and make one ready TO
assist sn inefficient neighbor.
Use Unnecessary Energy.
Starting with dishwashing: There
are several ways of attacking the
task. Try the way you are doing the
work, observing as you go whether
there are any motions made which
could be eliminated. or If any part of
the process could be shortened. For
instance. those who possess dlshwash-
ing machines expect to leave the
dishes to dry themselves after being
washed and rinsed with very hot
water. This principle IA be applied
perfectly well to dishes draining in a
basket If a kettleful of clean. hot
rinslng water is poured ove them.
The process of wiping n then be
entirely eliminated. except possibly
for the glass and silver. Fewer towels
are thus used, and the amount of
washing of ~tea-towels is reduced.
Look at the details in the above
picture and see how many time and
motion saving suggestions 1t contains.

GELATIN IN
VARIETY OF DISHES
Attractive Desserts Are Relished
by Young and Old.
succulent Fruits and Fruit Ices Are
Particularly Acceptable After
Comparatively Heavy Meal
Recipe for Pudding.

.Prepar.d by the United States Department
OF Agriculture
Gelatin can be used in the prepare
ton of a great variety of attractive
desserts which are liked by young as
well as by old and are for this reason
convenient for occasional use in fami-
lies where adults and children must
both be provided for. Gelatin is
used In such small amounts that II
rannot be relied upon to furnish
much nourishment. II takes up Il
large amount of water, however, and
forms bulky or light desserts. Such
desserts, which include also ~succulent
fruits and fruit ices. are particularly
acceptable after a comparatively
heavy meal. Gelatin is a good means
Of introducing fruit juices. and to
some extent also vegetable juices like
those Of tomatoes and cucumbers.
into the diet. These juices contain
vitamlns, some of which nre probably
destroyed by heat, so that 1t is well
to know a variety OF ways OF serving
them raw. One OF these ways Is In
the form of gelatin desserts. The fol-
towing recipe Is recommended by the
United States Department Of Agricul-
lure.
Snow Pudding.
I tablespoonful gran v cup sugar.
ulated gelatin. cup lemon Juice.
4 cup cold water. Whites OF three
! cup boiling water. eggs
Soak gelatin In the cold water and
then dissolve II In hot water. After
adding the sugar and lemon Juice,
strain and set aside to cool, stirring
occasionally. When It IL quite thick,
beat with an egg benter. Add the
~well-bsaten egg whites and continue
to beat until II is stln enough to
hold Its shnpe. Mold or pile by spoon-
fuls on u glass dish. Serve with n
soft custard made with the egg yolks.
Variety can be obtained In this
iish by substituting fruit juices for
all or part OF the water. Fruit juices
ike those Of grapes and berries that
are not injured m flavor by heat can
be used In place OF the water for dis
solving the gelatin. though this may
destroy some Of the vitamlns.
