Make Milk the
Foundation of Meals
Good Housekeeping"

II can't drink milk. 1t is dis
tasteful to me-" So many adults
tell us this, in all sincerity. believ-
ing that they must get along with
out milk because they don't like
the taste of milk as a beverage.
Fortunately there are other ways
of getting milk into meals besides
actually drinking it, although
many of us find this way a pleas
ant one. Just consider how many
everyday dishes are made with
milk. There are cream soups and
milk chowders, for example, which
are mostly milk. Then there are
scalloped vegetables and meats.
creamed veg re tables, casserole
dishes, desserts such as bread
puddings, rice puddings. cuStards,
cream tapioca, cornStarch pud-
dings, and many delicious milk
drinks such as cocoa. matted milk,
milk shakes of many flavors, egg
nogs, and the prepared chocolate
malt powders which. added to
milk, make it delicious and even
more nutritious. You will find it
easy to build a pint of milk into
your meals if you keep account of
the amount of milk you use in
dishes like the above.

Table Tidbits

This is the season of the year
when the army of dieters suffers
heavy desertions, for few can re-
SiSt the varied sweets and nuts,
not to mention a score of other
tldbitS. GlaCe fruits are in favor,
such as glace cherries. pineapple,
pears; all of these are suitable for
those who want variation from
candy. Glace and candied lemon,
orange, citron and grapefruit peel
with their piquant flavor are now
quite popular. The candied peel
differs from the glace in that it
has a heavier coating of sugar.
Nuts, of course. are inseparable
from this season of the year, and

Preserving the Cookie Jar

In these days of small kitchens
and crowded shelves there Is not
always much space to give to the
storing of cookies. Indeed, in
many places the art of making
them at home seems to be dying
out. But it seems a shame that
the children of today should have
to miss the delights of the
cookie jar. If you have children,
and if you have pantry, even
a small one, I strongly urge that
you put aside some small portion
of the shelf as the permanent
abode of some kind of cookie jar
This may be a tin box or a stone
crock: it need not be large, but
