STRESS PLACED
ON BREAKFAST
Skimped, Hastily Eaten
Meal Lacking in Proper
NOuriShment.

No wife and mother can afford to
overlook the importance of break
fast, for this meal breaks Is or IA
hour fast if no food has been eaten
since dinner the night before. 1t is
essential that members of the fam
lily be sent to their work or play
properly nOurished. A hastily swal-
lowed breakfast of coffee, toast, and
orange juice is not an adequate meal
for either a busy housewife or the
members of her family.
The problem of getting a good
variety into the days first meal can
be solved in the first course-the
cereal course. There is a rich
abundance of tempting, ready-to-
eat cerealS-corn flakes, bran
flakes, whole bran, rice flakes,
wheat flakcs-au ready in their
packages to be combined with
canned or fresh fruits and cream.
The crisp deliciousnesS of the cereal
combined with refreshing fruit and
cream constitutes a most nourish-
ing and delicious first course.
The hot dish of the meal can cas-
lily be varied by cooking eggs in
variety of ways-poached, boiled,
fried, scrambled or in an omelet.
Ham or bacon, bacon with stewed
tomatoes or fish cakes and bacon
are easily prepared hot dishes in
which there is no monotony if they
are served alternately. The bread
part of the meal can easily be varied
by making toast of different kinds
of bread or serving mullins, waffles,
or pancakes.

RARELY BEARS
! GREEN ITEMS
Mrs. Anne Lindbergh Writes
of Meal in Village of
Far North.

CHANGING at the lush display Of
cool-looking green vegetables in
groceries, it takes q fash Of inagi-
nation to realize mat there are
places where a sprig of parsley or a
lettuce leaf in a sandwich is some
thing so rare and special that the
mere serving of green things like
these takes on historic significance.
In her new book, North to the
Orient" Anne Morrow Lindbergh
describes the extravagant touch that
was lent to a Thanksgiving dinner
at the Eskimo village of Point Bar
row in Alaska, where the Lindberghs
were guests Of honor on their ia
nous flight to the Orient.
Neighbors had pooled their sup
plies for a feast that included wild
goose and reindeer meat, canned
sweet potatoes. peas and beets,
canned celery salad for which some
one brought mayonnaise. But the
extrayagant touch was the parsley
garnish on the birds platter-pars-
ley that had been patiently grown
IN a hospital window pot by the
mead nurse at that outpost.
Lindy's Gift an Orange
When they were saying good-by,
their hosts, waiting for ship to
get through the ice foes, were won
dering how long it would be before
they could again taste butter, tea.
coffee, cigarets. 1t was there that
Col. Lindbergh, pulling on his flying
suit, found in the pocket an orange
which he handed, alphabetically, to
the doctors wife. That was some
thing wonderful. She was going to
give it to the baby.
And in faraway Kamchatka, In
Siberia, Mrs. Lindbergh contributed
a lettuce sandwich to a dinner at
which the hoSteSses were a trapper'S
wife and a woman zoologiSt.
What Feast of Fish.
Perhaps one would have to be
without a meal for "a hours. as
. the famous fliers were at the edge
of an island in Japan, to know how
delectable the odor of frying fish
can be-from a neighboring kitchen,
where you think you're not going
to be asked to dinner-or to realize
what a feast could be made of
Warmed-over fish and potatoes.
Plums in some form would be
nice for dessert. Mention of them
was suggested by Mrs. Lindbergh,
who explains in her last chapter
that in the Orient the plum is
symbol of courage, because trees will
bloom while snow is still on the
ground.
This recipe for plum cake is from
Dorothy Myerson's "Homemaker's
Handbook:
Plum Cake
Beat together an egg and a table
spoon of flour. Add a pinch of salt
and two tablespoons melted butter,
then add alternately one-half cup
milk and one and one-half cups
flour in which a teaspoon of baking
powder has been mixed. The dough
should be just too soft to roll.
Spread in a buttered cake tin. Cover
with slices of plum halves. Scatter
with raisins, sugar and melted but
ter. Bake in hot oven 80 minutes.

Blackberry Jam

Crush two pintS of blackberries in
the preserving kettle before putting
in two and one-half pounds Of
sugar. Stir with a long-handled
spoon while the fruit boils three
minutes. Remove from fire and
add cup of fruit pectin. Boil an
other five minutes, stirring and
skimn1ing by turns. Pour into
glasses and cover with melted par
rain.

supply you with macaroons, get
some put up in tin boxes at fancy
grocer's.
To the peach and macaroon mix
ture add the slightly beaten yolks
of eggs, 2 tablespoons sugar, al
monds and cordial. Stir we'll and
fill peach halves with the mixture,
heaping it up. Arrange in baking
dish and add wine with remaining
sugar dissolved in it. The amount
of sugar will be determined by the
sweetness of the fruit. Bake in
moderately hot oven, 400 degrees,
for 80 minutes. Chill and serve with
or without a sauce.

LOSE WEIGHT SLOWLY
One or Two Pounds Weekly Will Be
Sufficient.

If you find you should correct
your diet, weigh yourself every day
to see what is happening. as you go
along, but don't try to gain or lose
too rapidly. One or two pounds a
week is enough. And above all, don't
take anything to reduce. Much ILL
ness is caused that way.
You can reduce safely if you con-
tent yourself with fewer and smaller
servings of fats and sweets and
starchy foods. If you are under
weight, reverse these directions and
eat more, especially of the fat-pro-
ducing foocs.

Peach Surprise

Line a dish with ladyfingers or

Delay Improves Dough

Both biscuit and pie dough is all
the better to stand in the ice box for
several hours before baking. The
same is true of plain or sugar cookie
dough.

Roast Them

1t is considered more healthful
to roast vegetables when possible,
such as potatoes, for example, than
to boil them. The salts are re-
moved by boiling.

made last year when 1886 cars was
the record for days traffic.
A comparative analysis of the traf-
fic passing over the boulevard showed
that a large proportion of the riders
were merely taking pleasant ride
with the ocean on one side and the
Rehoboth Bay on the other. In many
cases, the parties paused for fishing

SOUTH AFRICA
DANGER GROUND
FOR LIGHTNING

More people are struck by lightning
in South Africa than anywhere else
in the world, and DR.. H. E. Woods,
official astronomer of the South At
rican Union, has suggested why this
is true. 1t is not because of any mag
netic property of the soil, as others
have suggested, nor because of higher
elevation above the sea nor of the
position of Africa in the Southern
Hemisphere.
The real reason, DIR. Wood believes
is merely that South Africa has large
areas of so-called veldt which have
no trees and little vegetation of any
kind, but are not absolutely desert.
Large amounts of almost bare soil are
exposed to hot sunlight and get over
heated. This proceeds to overhead
the layer of air next to the ground,
which then becomes lighter than the
cooler air of few thousand feet above
it, creating an unstable condition of

have been asked for and distributed
in contrast to about half that number
last year.
In all sections of the State a large
increase in the number of out-of-
state car licenses have been noticed,
