When tradition associates par
ticular dish or food combination with
definite part of the country, some
good reason usually exists for the pop
ularity of that menu. Winter days
along the Massachusetts coast, and In
fact, anywhere In New England. are
much of the time as bleak as we paint
them when we talk about he Pilgrims
There is need, therefore. in planning
meals for those who go out of the
home to york, to have various dishes
which will be tasty, hot. substantial,
and filling, When the workers come
home.
New England thrift doubtless plays
its part in the choice of one of the
best liked of these traditional menus
Boston baked beans and brown bread
for Saturday night supper. The beans
themselves are economical and filling,
but to be ine-flavOred they must be
cooked very slowly for very long
time. In many households 1t was the
custom in colonial days to prepare
all Of Sundays food or Saturday, and
even where this is not adhered to, it is
common enough to find Saturday a
busy baking day, what with cakes and
pies and bread for the weekend. With
the fire in constant use from early
morning, Saturday proved to be the
most practical day for leaving the
bean pot in the back Ct the oven until
the taste of the salt pork and the
molasseS and other seasonings was
thoroughly blended with the beans.
The brown bread that goes with the
beans is also the result of long cook
ing First it is steamed. and then
baked, so that advantage is again
taken of the fire in the coal or wood
range. The bureau of home economics

Bedtime Story for the Children

Then came the animals. There were
seals, elder ducks, reindeer, wolves.
wild bears, chamois. goats and sheep.
David clapped as the animals went
by.
Next came those taking the parts of
the city ladies. The one from Paris
was beautifully dressed.
Birmingham was dressed in heavy
suit of iron. David felt that ii must
be most uncomfortable. Dresden from
Germany was dressed to look like q
china doll. Prague from Czecho-
slovakia looked like a distinguished
old duchess. She was very old but
she was dignified and handsome. Bud
apest from Hungary was dressed In
the latest style, and Amsterdam and
Rotterdam of Holland wore the most
dazzling diamond ornaments. Flor
ence, from Italy, came along carrying
a box of paints palette and paint
brush, and Athens was dressed as
though ready for sports.
The country of Bulgaria sent beau
tiful rose float, filled with fragrant
roses.
There were so many city ladies
And then came more floats. David
could hardly keep track of them all.
He loved the Spanish float upon which
were girls dressed In red and yellow
who beat upon the tambourines and
sang and danced gaily. When they
came directly in front Of the grand
stand they threw David package in
which were olives and fruit, while
those who rode on Portugal's float
called out:
"Nice shoppers for your lemonade
bottles" but they didn't seem to real
ize that David had no lemonade bot
ties.
Its because they make shoppers
there" Europe explained, "and so
they're quite proud of the fact, They
naturally regard it as important"

sky effects are painted in with trans
parent effects.
The final touch Is achieved with
very thin silver, gold or bronze paper
worked in so as to illuminate the en-
tire in a brilliant way. AS valentine
gifts small pictures worked in this
way would be most unique and highly
priced by those so fortunate as to re-
ceive them.
Sprays of flowers, made to look like
thinnest glass through painting cell
lophane paper foundations with trans
parent dissolved sealing wax, give an
exquisite touch of color to any room.
The structure of the flowers begins
with forming the petal-shaped of
wire. These are then covered with
cellophane paper to simulate glass or
with crepe tissue in desired colors for
Opaque majolica effects. In either
event as final touch the flowers are

A bas relief of sealing-wax painted
flowers or other motifs transforms
the simplest parchment lamp shade
into a thing Of beauty" from the
standpoint Of the interior decorator.
Sealing wax, holding clay and pic
tured crepe paper are essentials for
this fascinating work. The idea is to
cut the flower or figures out of the
fancy crepe paper. Pictures can also
be used from magazines and the like.
The motifs are then pasted smoothly
on the parchment shade. To gain the
"relief' effect, the designs are then
built up with holding clay. After all

The fit of the sleeve depends first
of all on having the correct armscye
line, which should lie parallel to the
center front and center back and pass
over the tip or highest point of the
shoulder in a good curve, and fit the
underarm as closely as Is comfortable.
The fit of the sleeve is also deter
mined by the accuracy with which the
sleeves were cut from the pattern, by
the method -sed in attaching them to
the armscye, and by the cut and style
of the sleeve used. When properly
placed, a set-in sleeve should have no
fullness in the lower half of the
armscye, except in the case of very
fleshy arms, when some extra room is
needed. There is seldom any gather
ing over the upper half. although the
sleeve edge should always measure an
inch or more longer than the edge Of
the armscye. This is eased In when
the sleeve is set in and prevents an
uncomfortable and unattractive strain
across the arm.
The illustration, made by the bu-
reau of home economics of the United
States Department of Agriculture.
shows how a set-in sleeve is basted
into the armscye. Locate the highest
and lowest points on the armhole line
of the sleeve. These are the only
points on the sleeve edge where it is
net bias, If the sleeve has been cut
correctly. Then locate the quarter
points of the armscye. To do this,
fold from the high point of the Shout
der to the opposite or lowest point of
the armscye, and mark these points
with pins. Place the highest and the
lowest points together and thus locate
the quarter points. The upper and
Z. lower halves will also be established.
To determine which is the right or
left sleeve, fold it through the center
lengthwise with the sleeve seam edges
together. In the shirt or MILDLY blouse

SAVING MILK BOTTLES

Do you use milk bottles for jam,
kerosene, paint and other household
articles? Perhaps you use them for
flower vases, or in numerous other
ways. If they get too dirty, probably
they are thrown out with the ashes
or trash.
Such a procedure is far too COM
mon, says the bureau Of dairy indus
try, United States Department Of Ag-
riculture, and adds materially to the
consumers milk bill. The annual
milk-bottle bill Of the nation is close
to $30,O0O,000, the bureau says, and
at least S20,OOO,0OO of this is loss
occurring after the bottles leave the
dairy.
Last year in one large city, junk
men picked off the city dumps 20,000,-
600 milk bottles which had been
thrown away. These bottles had
value of over S1.0O0.OO0.

David was about to see the great
parade of Europe where he had gone
adventuring and Europe was acting
as master of ceremonies, and explain
ing why his suit was made of so many
cOlors-just as the map of Europe has
so many colors.
The sound of the music came closer
and closer and now David was sitting
in the grandstand to which Europe
had led him.
At the head of the procession was
the drum major, followed by little Map

burst into splendid march.

and whirling about his head was a

from Italy, wild, sad, beautiful one
from Russia, a gypsy band from Ru-
