ENTIRE NOS CLUB
WINTER DANCE IS
HELD LAST NIGHT

One of the loVelieSt of the many
attractive dances given by the En-
tire Nos club was held last night III
the Ten Thousand club house where
the main auditorium was trans
formed into a beautiful winter for
est.
The walls were banked with fir
trees glistening with SNOW, and
snow dripped over the doorways
and windows, while the stage also
was covered with snow. In from.
of the stage, adding a touch of bril-
liant color, was a wheelbarrow filled
with bright red apples, which the
members consumed during the
course of the evening. A grotesque
snowman added to the illusion of
winter, while the lights were shaded
to give the effect of moonlight.
As the members entered they
were handed programs to which
were attached tiny bells, typical Of
New Years. During the evening
snowballs were distributed and 4
SNOWFALL feature dance was enjoyed.
Refreshments of sandwiches and
coffee were served at a late hour

out the entire school year. BY the
way, did you try any of the ap-
petite thrillers suggested then? The
occasional use of plain nutbread
sandwiches will never fail to tease
their tastes and with this in mind
today We are about to stir up a
loaf Of nutbread in our Kitchen
Crock
The sandwich has a story and
tradition OF its own. Had space
permitted last week we would have
told the legend of its origin.
Though popular in America the
sandwich was first known in Eng
land. It is said that the Fourth
Earl of Sandwich, a member of Eng
hsh nobility, had a great love for
sports which caused him to be
late for meals and often entirely
omit them. Finally because of the
extreme annoyance which this habit
caused his servants it was then
that he struck upon the happy
thought Of their bringing to him
his food between slices of bread.
In so doing he was able to continue
his sports uninterrupted. From
that time on the sandwich has TAX
en- on countless forms and is used
IN a multiplicity of forms through
out the culinary practises in Am
erican homes today.
For the benefit of those readers
OF our column who like an occas-
lonal plain nut bread and butter
sandwich here is a corking form
ula:
Sift and measure 3 cups flour. 3
teaspoons baking powder, l tea
spoon salt, = cup sugar, and add
! cup chopped Walnuts. Beat an
egg well and to it add gradually
IL cups milk. This is known as
the standard muffin method for
mixing, and has many ways of be-
ing used in baking practises. Com
bine the liquid and dry ingredients
quickly and place batter in a well
oiled loaf bread pan. Set the oven
regulator at 325 degrees F. and
bake for IL hours.
