Dear Folks:
This is going to be recipe issue,
so many requests have come in for
recipes that l am not going to be
able to give them all in this issue,
but will continue in next weeks.
Cordially yours,
AUNT JULIA.
A. CT have no recipe for cit
ron preserves, but have asked the
cousins to send one for this depart
ment, here is my rule for ambrosla:
Remove the pulp carefully from
oranges, add small package of CO.
coanut or half of fresh cocoanut.
Mix lightly and sweeten to taste. A
small can Of grated pineapple and
a few nuts makes this a delicious
dish. You must be careful in hand
ling your oranges or your ambrosla
will be too moist also If you use
the canned cocoanut, drain it. Put
the cocoanut on top as well as in
your ambrosia, dotting the top with
blanched almonds.
Mrs. r. H. Harris, Roxboro, N C.;
My rule for making potato salad al
lows a great deal Of LATITUDE. L mix
according to my crowd, when we
have our usual five for Sunday
night supper I use five medium
size potatoes, these I cut up rather
fine, generally I have a few green
peas left from Sunday dinner; II l
do I put these in; but 1t Is not
necessary. One medium-slze onion
cut very fine, three pieces OF GEL
cry also cut fine; this [ mix with a
French dressing, remembering thar
potatoes need to be sailed to taste;
when this is done,I cut up a tomato,
adding it carefully, so as not 10
bruise. Then I am ready for my
Mayonnaise. Be careful in adding
your dressing, so that your salad IS
not too moist; put your leaves Oh
lettuce on your platter, pile up your
salad, put a spoon of Mayonnalse on
top, and around the edge another
tomato sliced thin. You can ado
boiled beets to this, and while 1t is
not necessary, 1t adds to its taste
and attractiveness. VIII give you
rule for chicken salad in next weeks
issue.

Dearest Aunt Julia and Cousins: May I
come i'll for a short chat? l have been an
interested but silent reader of the Letter
Box for several years. l must say the let
ters grow better and better. May | say n
few words on the value Of a Pal?" pal
is in the diamond, pearl and ruby class
very rare and very precious-but different
in this way: fine and scarce as a REAL
pal is, intrinsic value does not enter into his
possession. pal comes, homehow, and
then he stays and sticks and gives. A pal
loves forgives, forgets, sympathizes, under
stands-above all, understands. You don't
have to explain or make excuses to the enc
who is your pal. pal always comes Ia
You when you need him most, and he isn't
scared away a bit if the whole Worid de
serts you. He Tor sheD there Sc stay.
because, don't you see, he is your pal, aId
you want him, and he wants YOU. And
that explains everything. pal doesn'
keep things back. A pal Is. honest above
board open and expressive pal can
make mistakes and they are just mistakes.
but if he isn't your pal, then they arc
plumbers instead, and you may resent and
be unhappy and sadly sorry, but somehow,
with a pal, you love right through every
thing and are the stronger bound for the
very weaknesses that sometimes hide strong
feelings unexpressed. A pal is always
around-in spirit and in feeling. If it
