THERE are various accompani-
L mcuts for cream soups that
increase the palatability of the
soup and make for economy too.
Melba chips and croutons both are
easily made from stale bread or
rolls
To make Mclba chips, cut stale
French rolls in very thin slices,
erosswise of the roll The slices
shouldn't be more than an eighth
Of an inch thick Spread them on
shallow pan and put in a slow
oven until crisp and brown
throughout Their crisp crunehi-
ness makes them delicious with
all kinds of soups.
Croutous are especially accept
able with the sprine vegetable
soups The Crunchy richness Of
carefully made croutons adds the
finishing touch to delicious puree.
There are several ways of MAX
ing crOutons Some cooks dip the
neat cubes of bread in melted but
ter and brown them in a moderate
oven Others drop the cubes into
deep hot fat and fry them to gold
en- brown in one minute.
CroutonS Made Two Ways
The bread chosen for croutons
is more important than the aver
age housewife realizes. 1t should
be stale but not too dry and crum-
bline A fine and close grained
texture is essential. Cut in slices
about one-half inch thick. remove
crusts and cut each slice into cubes
with a very sharp knife to insure
seometrical neatness and aecur-
acy. The cubes are dried until
they are crisp clear through. After
this they can be toasted or fried
in deep fat.
Sometimes one is puzzled as to
how to serve croutons. CrOutons
may be properly served in two
ways; ID They are passed TO each
person Immediately after his soup
is placed before him and he helps
himself The dish that holds the
croutOnS may be an ordinary vege-
table dish with a tablespoon in it.

 The 'scounter car',' which resem- blse lunch wagon gone high hat, devised by MT Ritter, has just been added to the commuters morning special from Westport by the New York, New Haven and Hartford railroad.

 The. bus became stalled when Roy Wendell, the driver, could not break through the high drifts. Wendell backed his bus over a mile to a power company's relief station-maintained in the pass for just such an emergency.
 After the passengers had been established in the relief cabin Wendell brought out the ice cream which was part of the express he was taking to Silverton.
 Spoons were whittled from a piece of board and the marooned travellers enjoyed an old-fashioned ice cream social,

 Milk is almost e perfect food, and should figure largely ip menus, both for little folks. and for big folks. It may take the form either of creamed soups, white sauces, or custarde desserts.

Sometimes when you are all ready to make a dessert, you may find that you haven't enough fresh milk. Then if you have an einef- gency shelf with either eFapOrated or condensed milk you can go ahead and make your deserts just the same. Evaporated milk may be used in any recipes calling for milk and 1t is certainly economical. Just dilute it with an equal amount of water--that is 1-2 cup of eFnpo- rated milk, plus 1-2 cup of water equals one cup of whole milk. Be sure to distinguish between unsweetened, and condensed milk which Is thick and sweet. Con- dansed milk, because of it's sweet ness, furnishes both the milk and sugar needed in many recipes. Here are three:
