Salads Should
Have Important
Place on Menu

Judging from the popularity Of
salads, one could safely say that
salads have become a definite and
very important part of every menu
IN III Centre homes, and every day
should be salad day in Imperial
Nallet
We eat salads for Slcndcruc>s,
for vigor and for health, but unlike
Sc many of the sturdirr compo-
nents of the meal, the salad must
he inviting in appearance. or else it
is Just that much culinary effort
wasted
Appetizing salads can be made
from raw vegetables, such as car
1ets, new tu,nips. spinach, new
hcets aud bean sprouts as well as
those more commonly used raw,
lettuce, onions, radishcs, celery, wa
tereress, tomatoes, and cabbage.
Every one knows the health quality
of these and their value in the diet.
One virtue Of the salad is that il
j, often an economy. There is hardly
day when your ice chest does not
contain bits If cold meat, fish,
vegetables or fruit, portions of food
that should not and need not he
wasted. BY taking a little pains in
the preparation, these salads can
lc made as good to look at as they
ne to eat.
