Technique Of
Serving Orange
or Grapefruit
Whe HOme-Kitchen
BY ALICE LYNN BARRY.

-
II used to be "an apple q day.
but now the medical men have
added citrus fruits to the things
we can't live without.
Eat lots Of oranges. grapefruit.
n even some lemons and lines
That's where the vitamins live. and
no matter what else we eat, orange
or grapefruit should appear in the
daily diet for everyone. regardless Of
age or activities.
There r two ways to serve
oranges-either as pulp or as juice,
but the two shouldn't be combined.
III orange Juice is preferred, che
orange should be cut in haH.
squeezed and strained through q fine
strainer. Absolutely no pulp. And
1t should be a cold drink. Not by the
addition of ice which dilutes the
flavor, but by keeping ths oranges
IN a cold place before using. Two
1airly large oranges make a glass OF
pure orange juice. Under no cir.
cumstances should sugar ever be
added to orange juice. Il Injuries
flavor and food value.
If the orange Is desired with pulp.
the right way to serve 1t Is the
grapefruit method. Halve the or
anges (Which should be the large
VARIETY and with a sharp knife sep
arate each section Of pulp from the
skin. Serve two halves per person
and keep chilled until needed. Warm.
dsh oranges are not pleasant, even
on a cold day.
Grapefruit is served In one Of two
ways. For breakfast it Is invariably
served halved, in its own skin. There
is a difference of opinion about how
grapefruit should be cut. Some make
a quick job OF 1t by running g. sharp
knife around the inside OF the peel,
removing the core, and then letting
the guest struggle, stickily, to dis
lodge each section Of pulp from the
bitter skin. That's n OF the two
acrimes against grapefruit. CThe
other is to corrupt its davor with
n cherry.)
It's the housekeeper's Job to make
sure that grapefruit can be eaten
in comfort. with no splashing, no
wasting OF juice or pulp. First, cut
:n half with q large sharp knife,
making a clean. even cut. Leave
the core where 1t is. With a curved
grapefruit knife cut each section
cleanly from its pithy walt the
whole section. Completely cut in
this way, not a bit will be wasted.
With an ordinary teaspoon each Sec
ton OF pulp can be lifted QUIT
doesn't need painful excavatihg, No
struggling. no squirting.
Grapefruit cup, as a first cours
for luncheon or dinner, IS pre-
pared differently. In order to pre-
serve the slices, peel the grapefruit
as you would an orange. Separate
in halves. With a sharp knife cut
away the thin membrane, then cut
the slice OF pulp neatly from the
skin behind 1t and place in a bowl.
Continue to cut the membrane from
the next slice, then remove the pulp,
and 50 on, until you finish with one
half Of the grapefruit. Do the same
thing to the other half. You can do
a quicker, easier job in this way
than by breaking up the grapefruit
dnto Individual pieces and then try
ing to peel the membrane off each
piece.
A salad made OF alternate layers
of grapefruit and orange slices
spread on lettuce Is excellent with
French dressing.

Poor circulation which comes from insufficient

an unbalanced diet which includes too many rich

vegetables which contain roughage, all these are
contributing factors to a muddy complexion. Any

About the Wortlllessness

The shadow-children, and espe.

Here was something new. They had
" thought about pins in that

they were worth nothing, they held
a very high opinion Of them, con.

However. Master Knarf, who

convinced that they were utterly
worthless. Bad as that was-for it
is bad to have such thoughts about
anything-he instantly set out to do
something that was eve worse. He
ran to the work-basket where a row
Of pins was lying. Being very small.
he sprang into the work-basket and
stood with his arms akimbo in front
Of the pins.
"Ho-ho," he cried, you're worth

Head-rolling Is due to the effort Of
