FOOD PROBLEMS
BY SALLY MONROE.
Tomato Molds.

Tomato molds are useful in making
a number of interesting dishes. These
molds are made to give the contour Of
a rather small tomato to the jelly mix
ture they contain.
At a smart dance supper the other
night foie graS was served with tomato
jelly made in moldS of this sort. To
make it, the tomato jelly should first
be mixed and the moldS we'll chilled.
Then, when the tomato jelly is also we'll
chilled, the bottom of each half is lined
with it. When it is firm, a small bit of
foie gras is added on each side, and
more tomato jelly is added to fill.
until the jelly is nearly set; then close
the molds and leave on ice until we'll set
When time comes to serve, dip quickly
in hot water. Have ready some shred
ded cabbage and make a nest of it for
each jelly tomato. A dab of mayon-
naiSe should be added to each to
mato."
To make the tomato jelly, stew some
ripe tomatoes and, when tender, press
through sieve. You will need two
cupfulS of the juice for the follow
ing ingredients: One tablespoonful of
minced onion, one-quarter leaf of bay,
half teaSpoonful of salt, one or two cell
cry leaves, q dash of paprika, one whole
close and q tablespoonful of lemon
Juice or vinegar. Simmer this for 10
minutes.
Meantime, soak q tablespoonful of
granulated gelatin in a quarter cupful
of cold water. Add this to the tomato
mixture. Strain and use in the molds.

OUR CHILDREN
By ANGELO PATRI.
Cleanup Days.

When things get very messy we have
cleanup days. OF course 1t would be
better not to get so messy, but then we
do and all that is left after that Is to do
the cleaning up.
But the burden of the task should not
be placed on the children. Whenever
the Womens Club decides on a crusade
of cleanup they descend upon the chill
dren. They want the children to learn
to keep the streets clean. They ask
that schools teach the children not to
litter the streets. Every Monday morn
ing our streets and parks are an un-
slightly mess because of the torn and
scattered newspapers. Impress upon all
the children that they are not to scat
ter their papers about. Get them to
talk to their parents about it. All OF
us must cooperate in this matter OF
cleanliness
Let's see. How many Of the newspa-
pers scattered about have been discarded
by children? How many elementary
school children, especially those in pri-
mary schools read and toss away news
papers? High school children do not
litter parks and streets with newspapers
for the same very good reason.
The children might be accused OF
throwing fruit skins on the streets, but
most of that is done by the adults. Chill
dren eat most of their meals under SUI
pervision of one kind or another and
that takes care of the refuse.
1t is right to teach children to keep
streets and parks clean. 1t is part of
the civic courses throughout the grades
and the teachers do not neglect their
task. It is the children and their teach
ers who do most of the prevention work
in this department of social service.
Instead of calling upon the children to
refrain from littering the city we should
be calling upon the grownups to help
the children in their work of maintain
ing its cleanliness. Is the street clean
ing department adequate? Are the men
date? Are the ordinances for cleanli-
ness enforced? Who litters the streets
and who is checking the offenders?
Who, for instance, heaps refuse and
junk and garbage in vacant lots and
who checks that very important mat
ter? Who does the dry sweeping? Who
is it that spits on the sidewalk? Not
the children can assure you.
The city and the village alike should
be clean. And the children ought to be
taught to help maintain that cleanliness
as an essential part of their training for
citizenship. But the 'grownupS are the
ones who do the mischief and It is the
grownups who need the prodding.
Every vacant lot ought to be clean for
the use of children. would remit cer-
tain taxes for the vacant lots that were
kept in shape for children's play. I
would publish the names of the street
cleaning department people who kept
their districts in good shape and give
them bonus and an honor stripe.
would place the responsibility for the
dirty places where it belongs and reward
those who attended to the duty Of clean

got some chalk and a regular black

these tools as we would have on the

burn, they are rubbed full of CRIME,
they grow callous from contact with
hard, rough surfaces. This is the time
to be very careful about daily, or more
than daily, treatments to make them
nice-looking at all times.
Last thing at night scrub them hard
with fairly stiff hand brush and soap
and hot water. Then rub them with
massage cream, and rub for a full min
ute to work in as much cream as the
skin will take up. Wipe this off lightly,
leaving some cream In the skin.
When you wash and dress for the
evening, wash the elbows once more
with soap and water-juSt enough to
get them clean. Then rub a fairly gen.
erous amount of vanishing cream into
them and powder over this thickly.
TINS Is marvellous for making the elbows
look soft and smooth when they have
been hard and discolored. But its Vir-
tue Is only temporary; it will do no
permanent good. Your bedtime treat
nnent does that.
A soft, smooth elbow is a decided or
serious disagreement. But as bad ell
bows can be made nice-looking in two
minutes by either of these treatments
they are nothing to be depressed about.
But you must watch your elbows. Never
neglect them so they look like cornS on
the arms! And keep the skin well fed
with thick cream at night, for then the
elbows viii stand the hard wear of the
day without showing it.
Sharp elbows often have been taken
rs a symbol of a sharp tongue. Even
the thinnest sharpest elbows will grow
rounder and fatter If given a nightly
rub with the proper sort of cream. And
eYen hand lotions will help make ugly
elbows presentable If rubbed on daily.

Hunter Brothers Ridiculed

Hunter brothers, who managed to

these young men who are receiv-
ing huge salaries for emerging
from the wings onto the stage to
say how sorry they are that the

were forced to COM down as soon
as they did. Perhaps the public
thinks that their statements are
being very ably supplemented by
their refueling brothers. who de-
clare that it was a pleasure to
work with their flying brothers.
