Miss Nancy Hopkins to Visit
Family Here for Curtiss
Air Races Saturday

Nancy Hopkins, daughter
of DR.. Alfred Hopkins, one
of the youngest women
pilots in the country and the
only Washington girl to win
q pilots license for COM
mercial aviation, is flying up
from Miami, Fla, on Friday
or early Saturday morning
to view the Curtiss Marine
Trophy air races. The races,
postponed from last week,
because of the rain, are
being held Saturday after =.
moon at the Naval Air Sta
tion.
Nancy is plotting a Kitty
hawk plane, which, accord
ing to her father, is the type
she favors above all others,
up from the South. She con-
siders it a good, safe plane
for beginners.
To Long Island
Nancy will remain in Wash.
ington for few days, and
then take her plane on to
Roosevelt Field, L. l., where
she completed her training,
and now makes her head
quarters.
DR.. Hopkins tells me that
all they do in Miami is ely,
talk, and eat"-and thus his
ambitious daughter has found
every minute Of the day oc-
cupied.
Nancy is but 40 years DID,
and received her air pilots IL
cense before she was out OF
her teens. She knew what sne
wanted to do, even before she
finished at Central High School
two years ago. In the time left
from school. she took courses in
flying at Hoover Field until
she had the necessary hours in
the air required for a pilots
license.
Learns and Earns
However, winning acommer-
cial license is altogether a diff
ferent, and much more diff
ficult proposition. And while
completing the $50 hours solo
flights required for this license
at Roosevelt Field. Nancy
earned money by giving out
information there.
She answered all sorts of
questions, meeting anxious
parents and eager youngsters
who wanted to enter the flying
game.
Nancy is the niece Of Charles
Dana Gigson, we'll known artist.
Going Abroad
The former United States AM
bassador to China and Mrs.
John V. A. MacMurray and
their children will sail for Eu-
rope next month. Mr.. Muir
ray was in China for four
years. He recently resigned to
be connected with the Johns
Hopkins University. He and

Ghost Party

Let the invitations to this Hal
loween affair include a request
that each guest bring along a
sheet and pillowcase. When the
guests arrive help each to don his
sheet and mask. AS soon as they
are all assembled order them to
form a circle. clasp hands and
dance about. This will at once
confuse those who think they have
identified some of their compan-
ions.
Some of the old fortune-telling
games should be tried. Ducking
for apples is perhaps the most
typical of all such games. Use an
old-faShioned wooden tub. Place a
dime in one apple, a ring in an
other and a button in the third.
These denote money. marriage
and single blesSedneS6. Players
try without the use Of hands to
secure an apple in the mouth.
Every one must then pare the
apple, trying not to break the par
ing. The pairing is thrown over
the shoulder, for it Is said that 1t
will form the initial OF the life
mates name.
Walnuts, stuffed with invisible
ink-Written fortunes, may be
passed and made iegible by heat
ing near a candle.
Fishing games are interesting
and are eaSY to arrange, Have q
tub-or big wash pot-with water
half to the top. Into it put little
prizes (celluloid). into which little
hooks have been placed. For a
fishing rod use a short stick to
which a string with regular fish
hook has been attached.
Blindfold players, and let them
blow out a candle, the number OF
puffs required to extinguish the
light governing the number OF
years before players marriage.

Apple Desserts Are Delicious at This Time of the Year

Crisp, juicy apples in a variety
of tints to match the autumn
foliage are now temptingly heaped
up in every store and market.
How fortunate we are that this
king of fruits is at it's best and
most abundant through the sea-
sons when we need it most. For
the healthful, delicious apple is
one of Natures own methods of
keeping substantial winter meals
properly balanced. And what a
boon to the housewife to have a
fruit that can be turned simply
and easily into SO many delicious
desserts which children can safely
eat.
Here is an apple tapioca which
the youngsters can eat with a
gusto-full of sugar and spice

Season With Discretion

Season with discretion, for after
all, it is the mere suspicion OF
garlic which kindles the imagina-
ton and whets the lazy appetite.
We notice a captivating flavor
about a certain salad, roast or
dressing but that something is
elusive. We taste it the first
time nonchalantly, the second
time eagerly and then we realize
that it is the mystic presence OF
our old Italian friend garlic. =.
that makes the product which we
are eating so pleasing. Such
subtlety in cookery, especially
with garlic, is an art.
The next time you are blending
a French dressing, slip a tiny
Glove of garlic into the bottle.
Store it away in a cool, dry place
and sense the new individuality
that it has developed when it is
served on crisp lettuce.
Garlic's weaker sister, the onion,
should be used with discretion
also. In fact. in some families,
it must never even be mentioned.
But to us who have delighted in
thin slices Of bread lightly spread
with minced onion and chopped
hard.boiled egg. the onion is a
strong ally in our efforts to
raise common cookery to an
aesthetic art.

Apple souffle is the very des-
Sert to top off a substantial meal.
And it will cover you with glory,
too, for, made with quick cooking
tapioca, it will come out Of the
oven feathery light and will not

are souffles difficult and uncer-
tain to make since the discovery
that quick cooking tapioca acts
as a precision ingredients-a safe
guard which keeps the moisture
evenly distributed during cooking
and prevents the souffle from
drying out or falling.

Vegetables Are Important

vegetables play very 1mpor-
tant part in the diet and should
be eaten daily for good health.
They contain valuable minerals
and vitaminS, and when combined
with reasonable amount of pro-
tein as milk, cheese, nuts or meats,
they become main dishes and sup
ply muScle-making material need
ed to balance a meal.
Summer gives to us the fresh
green vegetables in great variety,
each one good of its kind-and
nature has provided us with a rea-
sonable amount of vegetables to
be stored up for the winter
months as cabbage, turnips, dried
beans and peas, squash, onions,
carrots, beetS and potatoes. but
the secret of success in using veg
etables depends upon how you
cook them-they must be cooked
in the least water possible SO as
not to lose the mineral salts. but
if any water does remain after
cooking, then save every drop and
use in soups or in flaVoring other
dishes

Household Hints
To Peel Fruit

To Peel Fruit
Especially when intended for
canning, use a sharp knife (sil-
ver) as steel is likely to blacken
the fruit.
Pots and Pans
Tinware, graniteware and iron
ware should be washed in hot
soda water. If Drowned, rub with
salt or baking soda.
Scrambling Eggs
Before Scrambling eggs pour
cold water into the frying pan
and the eggs will not stick.
Acid Stains
Such as vinegar Juice, which
will frequently change the color
of a colored fabric, may be re-
moved by sponging very lightly
and carefully with ammonia and
water, using one tablespoon Of
ammonia to four Of water.
Cracked Eggs
Wrap them individually in soft
paper and you may boil them
safely.

Leftover Bread-Used in Various Ways

What can I do with the ends
of the loaf Of bread and the left
over slices? This is a question
so many housewives ask and it
really is a question when we
don't like to be wasteful. The
answer is, so many good things
can be made from stale bread
Of whole wheat. rye or graham.
or any other kind, that it is
unwise to waste a single piece.
Small pieces of bread should be
slowly dried in the oven until
brittle, then ground in a meat
chopper or rolled and put away
in a glass jar for breading diff
ferent things, such as croquettes,
veal, ETC., also used for dry or
moist stuffing, griddle cakes.
steamed bread, bread omelet,
toast, puddings and many other
uses. Larger pieces of stale
bread may be dried in the same
way, cut very thin in squares,
called fairy toast, and used in
place Of crackers for soups and
salads.
Leftover bread may be made
into a variety Of toast-buttered
toast, milk toast. or the bread
may be cut into small pieces,
Drowned in the oven. fried in
deep fat or panfried and used
with soups. Small pieces may be
toasted and a Savory spread put
on and made into attractive ap-
peti7ers to serve before meals.
Many delicious puddings may be
made with bread crumbs or stale
slices Of bread by using different
fruits, jellies, chocolate. cocoanut
and many other things with
them. The danger of monotony
is avoided in using up these
left-overS.
Meat-Bread Cakes-To four
parts of Clipped or ground meat
add one part of soaked bread
crumbs, a small quantity of
chopped onion or onion juice, salt
and pepper to taste. Mix and
form into small round cakes.
Brown the cakes in fat. Raw
ground meat may be used. If
so. the pan should be covered so
that greater heat will be applied.
Brown Bread Pudding-Mix to.
gether one pint bread crumbs,
one cup cold water, one-half cup
molasses, one teaspoonful soda
dissolved in a little hot water.
one egg. we'll beaten, one tea
spoon cinnamon, one-half, tea

salt and one cup raiSins. Steam
The Washington times., 1930-10-31
Fresh Vegetables

Vegetables, which are delivered
in a wilted condition, should be
trimmed. placed in cold water,
and set In refrigerator to crisp.
For potato chips, the sliced pota-
toes should be chilled in water
in refrigerator an hour or more
before drying and frying.
Shredded cabbage so treated, Is
much improved for slaw or salad.
Curled celery and radishes peeled
in points need same method.
A quart Or pint jar keeps celery
crisp and in convenient form after
trimming. The leaves may be
washed, dried and spread on a
wire pie pan or shallow strainer
to dry slowly in refrigerator and
used later for seasoning. They
keep well in the cupboard in a
paraffinef carton. Scald toma-
toes quickly, chill in cold water
and place in box ready to peel
when required.
Hard cooked eggs may also be
on hand for salads or sandwiches.
