SANDWICHES FOR EVENING PARTIES
The evolution OF the sandwich is abou'
as interesting as that OF any dish tina,
we serve at the present time. 1t orig.
mated during the 18th century when the
Earl OF Sandwich. hungry. yet too In.
trigued with his game to leave. called fol
food which could be eaten while he con.
tlnued his play. The waiter brought tc
him two slices OF bread with a piece Of
meat between them.
We are still serving the bread and
meat sandwiches as we'll Us an innumer-
able list OF others. We have both hot
and cold sandwiches. fruit, vegetable
cheese, open faced. closed, and stacked a.
In club sandwiches.
A nice fine textured bread about "a
hours old should be obtained for makina
the sandwiches. It should not be dry
but should be old enough to cut well. II
the sandwiches are to be real fancy, the
crust may be cut from the entire LOAF
rather than from each individual sand
wich- The thickness OF the sandwich
depends upon the appetites of the indi-
viduals to whom the sandwiches are to
be served. Men and children usually like
them to be rather thick and substantial,
picnics and motor trips usually compel
the participants to desire thicker sand
wiches. but afternoon teas signify tiny,
dainty ones.
The butter which is a part of every
sandwich should be thoroughly creamed
SO that 1t will spread easily. 1t should
be spread on the lengthwise surface of
the bread. then the slice of bread cut
the desired thickness. Any filling may be
added. When another slice is placed on
top OF this. the long strip may be cut
into the desired shapes.
Open sandwiches are very nice for eve
ming parties. The bread for an open
sandwish should be cut a little thicker
than for an ordinary sandwich. The
spread may also be put OF thicker. They
offer marvellous opportunities for deco
rative work done with a pastry tube.
Sandwiches may be rolled like q Jelly
roll. wrapped tightly in a towel, then
fliced of. They may also be sliced real
thin, rolled like a scroll and tied with
some ribbon which harmonizes with the
color scheme.
BY means of fancy cutters they may be
cut In any desirable shape.
A garnishing OF parsley. water cress.
or some blossoms, adds to the attractive
ness OF the plate, when the sandwich is
being served.

EGG OMELET
When planning your breakfasts for the
early cool days include a bacon or ham
omelet. AT this season eggs are plenti-
full, and they should FIND q prominent
place on the table.
Many housewives refuse to make ONE
let's because 1t is a characteristic of ONE
let's to slightly settle when removed from
the stove, and this is not desired by any
of us.
If you will use a small amount Of
Calumet baking powder in your omelets
you will notice an added improvement.
You will ave a light, fluffy product
which will not fall or settle.
The cooking is an important point In
the making Of omelets. The heat must
be very slow, when brown on the under
