JUST BISCUITS

EVERY one ought to know how to
IL make some sort of bread equiv
alent in case meal time comes and the
bread box is found empty, and much
time is saved If you know the recipe
so well that you do not have to con-
suit a recipe book. The quickest and
easiest bread substitute is undoubtedly
the baking powder biscuit.
Here is the basic recipe for biscuits
that you may remember:
2 cupfuls flour.
tablespoonfuls lard or other short
ening. ~
cupful milk, or milk and water.
4 teaspoonfuls baking powder.
/ teaspoonful salt.
Some cooks use slightly less milk

shortening, which may be half butter
and half lard, mix in with the tips of
the fingers, add the milk, mix slightly
turn onto Toured board, pat dough
three-quarters of an inch thick and
cut with biscuit cutter or top of a
small tumbler. Bake in a quick oven
about fifteen minutes. In place of
milk or milk and water you may use
plain water, sour milk of sour cream,
with which a quarter teaspoonful of
soda has been mixed For richer bis
cults use up to three or three and a
half tablespoonful of shortening.
A quick way of making biscuits is
to mix the usual sort of dough, add
ing enough extra milk, or milk and
water to make thick batter that may
be dropped from spoon. Drop in

Wear Silk Shorts
as Farm "Uniform'

Dame Fashion wreaked havoc for q
time in the lives Of Russian village
women. The trouble all began after
the war when 1t became fashionable
for women ~ wear short skirts. That
fashion also became prevalent in the
Russian villages, bringing sorrow to
the women.
The women were sad because the
fashion magazines told about short
skirts. but told nothing about what
should be worn underneath these
skirts. And women in the Russian
villages suffered for long time from
this lack Of information. for no mat
ter how they sat in the short skirts.

truded.
This crying need of Russian wom-
en- was met by the co-Operatives,
which turned out an infinite quantity
Of silk shorts. Hence silk shorts for
women were sent to the most remote
Russian villages.
1t so happened that those shorts
arrived in the cooperative stores at
the same time as the tractors which
were sent to the collective farms. No
body knows who originated the idea,
but somehow it was decided that
these silk shorts were to go with the
tractors: they became the uniform
for the women who operated the trac-
tors. Now the girls operating the
tractors on collective farms wear only
silk shorts. without any skirts at all,
thus going far beyond all European
and American skirt reductions and
creating their own collective farm
fashion.

To take some poorer thing.
Passing something true and tried,
To something else to cling.
Always losing happiness,
Some poorer thing to hold,
Trading something hearts possess
For something that is sold.
Always man must make his choice
And often chooses Ill,
For it seems the still small voice
Is altogether still,
Always thinking nights of Joy
More good than days of bliss.
Treasures squandered by the boy

Always like marketplace,

Some will pass the things Of grace
And buy themselves the cares.

To keep our Joy. or sell.
