SISTER MARYS
D [El e KITCHEN
BY SISTER MARY
NEA Service staff Writer

VEGETABLES are most essen
Y tial in we'll balanced diet
and while most homemakers find
it possible to serve three or four
vegetables that are pleasing TO
the entire family, many varieties
seldom make their appearance at
the table a second time because
only one or two members of the
household will eat them.
The ingenuity of the cook, to-
gether with her "sales ability" di-
rectly control the question Of
whether her family eat the proper
amount and variety of vegetables.
There are tricks in all trades and
the cook must resort to many If
occasion demands. When the doc
tor prescribes disagreeable medi-
cine. he sugar coats it. This is
what the cook must do, too, fig
uratively speaking, and it's not
really difficult after all.
Suggestions For Variety
The following list gives a few
of the innumerable variations pos
sible in serving vegetables. Many
additions can be made il necos-
sary to develop certain vege-
table so that the family likes it.
I'm sure that these suggestions
will suggest other possibilities SO
that you can use every valuable
vegetable and have it enjoyed.
/. There are any number of veg
etables that can be cut invitingly
and served raw like radishes-
carrots, turnips, kohlrabi, cauli-
flower hearts, and so forth. They
make an attractive dish if served
with radishes which add a touch
of vivid color and the family are
reasonably sure to accept them
without grumbling. These vege-
tables served in this fashion must
be very thoroughly chewed.
2. In salad combinations. Shred
ded and mixed with celery and
nuts or even with fruits, you can
"get away" with lot of vege-
tables that would be refused if
served straight.
3. Perfect cooking. Careless
cooking is the reason for the un-
popularity of many vegetables
Boiled Just right, according to the
kind of vegetable and served hot
with plenty of butter. Few indeed
are the vegetbles that are not pal
atabie when served this way.
4. Carefully cooked and served
g,,th a cream sauce. The sauce Of

J. c. PLAY TO
BE REPEATED
THIS EVENING

Acclaimed as an outstanding
triumph in student dramatics by
a large and enthusiastic audience,
ille first performance OF Ice
bound revealed what can be done
with a good play and good cast.
The performance will be repeated
tonight in the high school auditor
ium at o'clock. Featured by the
excellent character studies, the play
and setting were compliments to
the direction of Mrs. Thelma T.
Ray
Based upon the efforts of a
greedy family to wrest the fortune,
which they had hoped to inherit,
from the hands of a servant whom
they hate and later from the con-
troll of a brother whom they have
summed, the plot offers many un-
usual situations.
Asher Harer in the part of Ben,
gave an able Interpretation to his
part as the son in whom the action
of the play centerS. Although Besse
Benyon'S acting did not uphold
her usual standard, her part as
the servant who saves the family
fortune from relatives and who
teaches Ben to live decent life
was we'll done.
Marjorie Spear, in the part of
Hannah. succeeded in developing
character that will not soon be
forgotten. Her cauStic remarks
were both humorous and shrewd
Jack York, of the high school,
kept the audience in jovial mood
with his comical portrayal OF the
small boy whose words and actions
are sources OF constant irritation
TO his elders.
The typical New Englander was
effectively interpreted in Fred
Cline's role as Henry. His wife
Emma, who manages the family af-
fairs, is realistically played by
Betty Ryerson.
Opal Hill as the spinster sister
gives one OF the best performances
in the play. She radiates the bit
terness and indignation OF her part.
Dudley Hatch, in the part of
Judge Bradford, makes his part a
pleasing contrast to the bigotry
and selfishness OF the Jordan fam
lily. Zoe Lisles (Sadie Fellows) de-
tends her small son against the
rest of the family and in spare
moments does her part to obtain
share of the fortune. Florence
Hess, as the vain granddaughter,
interprets her role capably.
Those whose work in the support
ing cast is well handled are Philip
Jones as the deputy sheriff and
Melvin Wilby as the doctor.
The set, designed by Thelma T.
Ray, accurately projected the mood
of the play.
Between acts the orchestra under
the direction of Miss Lucille G..
Krause furnishes musical selections.
