For Others

BY VIRGINIA Z

DR.. Gary g. Myers, psychologist
and specialist in child and parent
education. declares that the pre-
vention " crime should start In the
cradle. with the training Of the
very little children. Likewise, good
manners and consideration Of 9TH
ers are best taught when folk are
very small. It's quite useless to try
to make a grown man over from a
selfish rtrson who thinks only Of
himself, into a magnanimouS. high
minded individual interested in
helping others.
Marriage can't change such a per-
son. He or she may seem different
for a time. while the situation Is
new and novel. But eventually the
selfish person reverts to type. as 1t
we're.
SO. Mrs. d. T.. I am a little afraid
that as your husband Is now. so he
will be when circumstances change.
You have loved him as he is. and
will continue to do so. ] imagine. !
agree with you that nagging Is de-
testable and will not help. You
might now tell him gently how you
feel and ask him 10 consider your
side of the matter, but don't expect
too much Of him. His mother has
not taught him to consider others
and unless II can be brought home

less he Is where others r concern
ed, I'm afraid you'll have to put
up with him as he is.

Uncooked Sweet Sauces
There is an interesting variety
of uncooked sweet sauces. They
are Of two types - the frothy So
called 'foamy" sauces, and the very
rich hard sauces. which are tradi-
tionally connected with rich fruit
ed buildings. We shall give just
two simple foamy sauces and a type
OF hard sauce, which you may vary
as you like.
Foamy Sauce
/ egg, u teaspoon salt. l-3 cup
fruit sugar, II teaspoon flavoring.
| Separate the white from the yolk
OF the egg: beat the yolk until very
thick. gradually beating in half Of
the sugar. Beat the white Of the
egg until stiff and gradually whip
in the remainder Of the sugar. Con-
tinue beating until the mixture
stands up in peaks. Fold the yolk
into the white mixture. add the
salt and flavoring. Suggested fla
workings: vanilla. almond, vanilla

The cream Of dried lima bean soup
Is very nourishing and so Is the IN
dian pudding which is planned for
dessert. I believe you viii find the
soup recipe particularly satisfac-
tory.
Cream Of Lima Bean Soup
2 cups Of dried lima beans, 2
tablespoons butter or other fat, ]
small onion, u cup diced celery, ]
cup cream, ! teaspoon salt, u tea
spoon pepper.
Soak lima beans In cold water
to more than cover for six hours.

boil. Boil five minutes. Drain and
rinse In cold water. Melt butter In
soup kettle, add onion finely chop
ped and cook until a pale straw
color. Add celery and beans and
boiling water to cover and simmer
until beans are very tender. about 4
hours. Rub through a coarse sieve

Orange Sauce
Egg YOIk

The second great thickening agent
for sweet sauces, Is egg yolk. There
is one very important rule TO be
observed in using 1t. The sauce IS
cooked first, then combined with
the egg just before removing from
tn< heat: the egg Is beaten and the
ne sauce Is stirred into II very
very gradually This means that the
heat affects the egg slowly, and Il
An gradually thickened. II we were
10 pour the egg directly into the
large hot mass. It would harden In
, 1935-01-11

particles at once - with q double
failure as q result: the liquid would
not be completely thickened and
curdled looking particles OF egg
would float In 1t. II there Is con-
siderable egg in the sauce. 1t must
be returned to the double boiler
and stirred a few moments to
thicken the egg.
(Custard sauce) which we discuss
ed In Lesson z. depends chiefly
upon egg yolks for thickening and
requires special treatment).
Cooked Foamy Sauce
I-3 cup butter, / cup fruit sugar
2 eggs, 2 tablespoons orange juice
n teaspoon lemon juice.
Cream the butter, gradually blend
in 2-3 cupfuls of sugar. Add the
well-beaten egg yolks and the or
ange Juice. Cook over hot water,
stirring constantly until thickened
Beat egg whites until stiff and
gradually beat remaining sugar into
them. Fold lightly into cooked mix
ture: add lemon juice and serve at
once.
We couldn't leave the cooked sweet
sauces without mentioning those
very rich. very sweet sauces which
we reserve for use with ice cream or
with very light batter pudding.
One great advantage Of this type OF
sauce Is that 1t may be kept for q
long time, II covered and set IN q
cold place. II you wish TO serve
these sauces hot, they may be easily
warmed over hot water, stirring so
that they will melt smoothly.
Butterscotch Sauce
IL cups brown sugar. II cup corn
syrup, "a teaspoon salt, ! cup cream.
/ teaspoon vanilla. /.
Combine sugar. corn syrup and
salt and cook, stirring constantly,
over a low heat until sugar Is dis
solved. Then cook, without stirring,
until a few drops will form a soft
ball when dropped in cold water
C236 F.D. Remove from heat. cool
slightly, then gradually stir in
cream. Flavor. Serve hot or cold.
Chopped walnuts. pecans or fill
berts are delicious additions.)
Chocolate Sauce
An excellent chocolate sauce
may be made as a variation OF the
Butterscotch Sauce, by cooking
with the sugar and corn syrup 2
squares OF bitter chocolate. which
have been grated before adding.
Or use the following recipe:
2 squares bitter chocolate. a cup
water. / tablespoon butter, la cups
powdered sugar, Il teaspoon vanilla.
Place chocolate with cold water
in top Of double boiler. When choc-
olate Is melted. beat until smooth.
Stir in the powdered sugar and
cook, stirring occasionally for 10
minutes or until sugar Is entirely
dissolved. Add butter and vanilla
and serve at once.
Maple Syrup Sauce
2 cups maple syrup. l cup thin
cream, " cup chopped nuts.
Cook the maple syrup to soft ball

very stiff. Fold In the sugar gradu-
ally and beat until the mixture
stands UP in peaks. Fold In drained
apricot pulp and lemon Juice.
Chill.
CThis sauce may be varied by US
ing any drained. sieved fruit PULP.
Peach is particularly good with q
few drops almond essence replacing
the lemon juice.)
Hard Sauce
Y cup butter. 2-3 cup fruit sugar.
u teaspoons flavoring.
Cream the butter until light and
fluffy: add the sugar gradually and
beat very thoroughly. CThe sugar
should dissolve completely In but
teri Add flavoring. Chill.
Variations = This Gay be varied
by using brown sugar In place Of
the white: or by folding In q stiffly
beaten egg white. Just before serv-
ing; or by the addition Of finely
chopped dried fruits or red and
green cherries, nuts OF well -drained.
sharp-flavoed fruit pulp.
A light busting Of cinnamon over
top Is an attractive finish.
