\ The question of what to serve
 with salads offers an almost unlim- I ited fields for ingenuity and ex- pertinent, because there are so many dainty, fiavorful foods that are ap- propriate as accompaniments to
 each type of salad. And the suc-
 cess of any dish, of course. depends l largely upon having the related foods both as attractive and appe- tizing as possible.
 | Hot mullins, cheese biscuits and
 sandwiches with fiavorful, piquant | filings are especially good with the
 more hearty vegetable, meat and | fish salads. Various types of cook I ies, sweet sandiches and unfrosted | cakes should be served with fruit | and dessert salads. Many people l also like cheese waters with fruit | salads.
 Here are tested recipes for wide variety of delightful foods to accom- pany salads of many kinds:
 HOT CHEESE TOAST ON WA HERS: 1-2 cup grated American cheese; 1 tablespoon India or Fresh Cucumber Relish, 1-2 tca- spoon Prepared Mustard. Mix together and spread on wa-
 fers or long narrow pieces of bread.
 Sprinkle lightly with paprika and 1 brown delicately in the oven or un-
 der the flame of the broiler. Serve with vegetable, fish or meat salads.
 DEVILED TONGUE ON TOAST OR | WATERS: small can devilcd l tongue or ham; Preserved i Sweet Gherkins, finely chopped; 1; l salt.
 Toast bread on one side, and spread tongue mixture on untoasted
 side after spreading with salad dressing. Cut in triangles or finger
 lengths and serve with vegetable or l egg salads.
 CRISP SQUARES: 1-2 cup bread | flour; 1 1-2 tablespoons sugar; 1 teaspoon salt; 1-4 teaspoon soda;
 cups Breakfast Wheat; 1-2 cup l shortening (1-4 cup butter and A cup vegetable shOrtening). ! Sift together the flour, sugar, salt | and soda, and add breakfast wheat.
 Add these dry ingredients to short
 ening that has been melted in 1-2
 cup hot water. Allow to stand until /: cool. pat about IA inch thick and 1 cut into squares. Bake on an un- greased cooky sheet in a moderately
 hot oven-400 degrees F.-for fif-
 teen minutes. Serve with vegetable salads.
 TOAST RINGS WITH TOAST | STICKS
 II Toast slices of bread on one side
 and spread untoasted side with grat-
 ed American cheese blended to a paste with tomato ketchup. From part of the bread cut rounds; and
 then with a smaller cutter, take
 out the eenters. leaving rings of
 bread. From the remaining slices,
 cut lengths of bread about 1-2 inch
 wide and 2 or 3 inches long. Place
 the rings and the lengths of bread
 spread with the filling under the
 broiler until the cheese is melted,
 and serve with two of the toasted
 sticks stuck through each ring.
 Serve with vegetable, meat or fish saleds.
 FRUIT FINGERS: eggs; cup sugar; 1 i-4 cups flour; tca- spoon baking powder; 1 cup mlnce meat; 1 cup chopped nutmeats. Beat eggs until light and fluffy.

To anyone who has been in Ha- waii, and has viewed the enormous lush pineapple fields, spread like a sprawling checker-board in the glori- Ious tropical sunshine, it would seem not only impossible, but economical- fly unnecessary to produce even more pineapples.
 Increased Production
 l But the person, who few years ago thought that, didn't count on the amazing continental American taste for this King of Fruits, nor that that taste would leap almost afarmingly, not only to include the Hawaiian fruit which was then grown and canned, but to contem- plate even more fruit which the Ha- waiian packers were then thinking of planting. And it is now a fact that they have since planted this fruit, which means an increased pro- duction of pineapple, and what is even more interesting has led to a much lowered prize to the consumer. | Hawaiian canned pineapple may now be purchased on the market a great deal cheaper than one has been able to purchase it for good many years.
 And this means increased house. hold use of this healthful, vitamin filled fruit, its inclusion in dishes which the housewife, heretofore planning her economical budget might possibly have considered lout of the family reach. Fluffy cakes, for instance, which the pineapple as the fruit with deco rative gelatin molds which de- mand the more expensive grades of pineapples, and owe their suc- cess and beauty to perfect and

P|0CA FOR MAKING ICE CREAM
Recipes for Velvet Smooth Non- Crystalline Ice
 Cream
STRAIN THE TAPIOCA

The use of quick cooking tapiosa i6 well established for such .dishes.as soups, omelets. berry pies, meat hpf etc. But now comes the gne discovery of what this versatile in- sredient can do for homemade ice cream.
 With quick cooking tapioca, vel vety smooth ice cream can be made without the bother of cranking the freezer. Yet no more cream is re- 4uired than for the mixture which must be stirred.
 owners of mechanical refrigeratoys simply prepare the mixture, set their refrigerator control for freezing des- serts, and forget about 1t until the freezing is complete. Housewives who do not own mechanical refrig- orators turn the mixture into q tightly covered container, pack in ice and salt, and leave it to freeze
 Up to new recipes of the mousse type, with large proportion ot cream, have had to be used in order to get q satisfactory, non-crystalline Z texture in desserts frozen without stirring. Many women object to such recipes, both on tiie score ot cost and of richness. All-cream mix e t4kGH AEC tOO TiSn tC eat dAtcT d Sup- stantial dinner, too rich for many children, and also out of harmony with the dietary restrictions many people wish to observe.
 The recipes we are sending you produce velvet-smooth non-crystal- line ice creams; yet they require but one cup of cream to two of milk The secret lies in the use of a small amount of tapioca. Due to its col loidal nature, tapioca tends to pre- vent the formation of ice crystals and so makes it possible to use more milk and less cream in a mixture to be frozen without stirring. Staining the tapioca, as the recipes direct, re- moves all trace of globules.
 Tn order that all tastes may be pleased, we are sending you recipes for chocolate, vanilla, frozen pud- ding, toasted coconut, and ginger ice cream.
 Chocolate Ice Cream 2 squares unsweetened chocolate, cut
 in pieces
 cups cold milk
 3 Tablespoons quick cooking tapioca 1-4 teaspoon salt
 1-2 cup sugar
 tablespoons light corn syrup tablespoons sugar

Strain hot mixture, stirring (not rubbing) through very fine sieve, onto salt, 1-2 cup sugar, and corn syrup. Stir until sugar is dis solved. Cool. Add tablespoons sugar to egg whites and beat until stiff. Fold into cold tapioca mix ture. Fold in cream and vanilla. Turn into freezing tray of automatic refrigerator and freeze as rapidly as possibiy--3 to hours usually re- qulred.

uniform fruit, frozen salads and desserts which seem too elaborate for every day, but which may now be used every day with budget Inconvenience.
 Pineapple is not only called the
 King of Fruits because it is lusty, luscious, full of flavor (when it is grown at its best) but because it lis so universally adaptable. It may be used as a breakfast fruit with the cereal, or fried for breakfast with a crisp piece of bacon or ham, for luncheon as a
 salad, dessert, vegetable or drink, or at dinner in any of the four ways mentioned.
 Here are some delicious tested recipes for the use of Hawaiian pineapple.

Where there was only one Lottie Collins

There is nothing particularly poetic
about the verse, but 1t has q ring to 1t.
The first stanza runs as follows:
When times are hard we're apt to think
The worst Is still before us.
We vow we're sunk, and lose our spunk,
And chant the blues in chorus.
Did we but raise our eyes TO gaze,
We'd see, as oft before,
A rainbow telling all the world
The cruel storm Is DER.
The generation that heard "Ta-ra-ra

Of its successor and sing it for the main

A POOR SUBSTITUTE
BY THE RIGHT REV. JAMES E. FREEMAN, D. D. L. d.
Bishop OF Washington.

"The absence of belief Is vacancy"
This is the striking and significant
statement made toward the conclusion
OF a book that has provoked widespread
interest. The gifted author maintains
that authority in matters religious has
been displaced and that the voice of
the church. taken as a whole, has
ceased to be a determining factor in
regulating things moral and spiritual.
The picture that he draws is dismal
and forbidding. His conclusion is that
cur only hope is "a religion of the
spirit; which does not depend upon
creeds and cosmologies and has no
vested interest in any particular truth.
To his mind the religion of the spirit
is purely q matter for individual judg-
ment to determine. 1t does not neces-
sarily bear any relation to the church,
but is "a kind of experience which is
inherently profitable"
The point of view thus expressed Is
by no means uncommon in our day and
generation. There are sincere men
and women who are deeply reflective
about their spiritual life: they are dis
illusioned and disappointed as the re-
suit of their observation of certain
trends and tendencies in our modern
corporate life. They seem to feel that
the CAufch Oh every name mas blSuhlly
failed to be q determining and guiding
factor in these days of uncertainty and
trial. Like a young man who came to
me recently, they are confused by their
much reading, and in their confusion
they are carried away from the old
landmarks, and the old beliefs. Along
with this, there Is another type that
Is affected by modern scientific disclo-
sures. This type seems to feel that the
workers in the laboratory are in con-
flict with the teachers of Christian
truth. This reminds us of book writ
ten by a former gifted president of
Cornell University, DR.. Andrew D,
White, called The Warfare of Science
With Religion" A generation ago this
book had q wide reading public. 1t was
not designed to show the failure of re-
ligion, but of its mistaken attitude in
attempting to halt the progress of SCI
entifie knowledge. DR.. White was a man
of great learning and wide reading, and
he made q conscientious effort In his
volume to show the survival Of pure
religion.
It is quite clearly evident that more
Of discrimination is needed today in
our reading habit than we have known
for a generation. Many excellent books,
with high motives and from gifted
