Did worried mother ever chase
you away from the pickle jar? Or
did you possess an Aunt Anna who
lived on a farm where you could
go to visit. And was there always
a jar or two of homemade pickles
right in the middle Of the dining
room table, from which you could
help yourself without question?
Probably that was all long time
ago, but the chances are that the
exquisite goodness of the home
made contents of those pickle jars
still fingers in your memory. There
would be sour pickles and sweet
mixed pickles and watermelon rind
and little prickly mangoes and
mustard pickles and chow chow.
And with piece of fresh bread
and plentiful supply of butter,
nothing more was needed to pro-
vide a grand impromptu meal.
Of course, if you live in an apart
ment without a yard, there is
nothing to be done but live in the
past. But if you possess even a
tiny patch of ground or own even
a bit of a fiat roof where the sun
shines, you may start right now to
prepare for the fun of producing
your own pickles and look forward
to enjoying them in not so many
months.
The first step must be taken
right now. It consists of writing
to scotsman and getting a gen.
eral catalog. Then one hunts up the
pages devoted to picking cucum-
bers and ordering few packets of
the proper seeds. Other ingredients
such as watermelon rind and to-
matoes and so on will probably
come more simply from the mar
ket. But the tiny cucumber is the
life of the pickles and these are
easily raised. The books will tell
you how. And if the garden plot
is very small, you need only have

Bottled Beer Should Be
Kept Away From Heat,
Light Whenever Possible

r Coming into the warmer wealth
er, few bottles of beer kept
regularly in the refrigerator will
help solve many an impromptu en-
tertaining problem.
Many women find, too, that
bottle of beer slipped with a light
luncheon is a splendid tonic, es-
pecially if the beer be of the sound
malty, well mellowed and aged
type. And when the men folk come
home from work, the wait for din
ner is made much more agreeable
to all concerned if there be bot
tie of beer in the ice box to take
their minds off Of an otherwise
fretful period.
Bottled beer to be served at it's
best must have been kept always
away from heat and the light
should be excluded as much as pos
sible. Light is always more or less
injurious to beer-especially direct
rays of sunlight.
At the same time, beer should
not be allowed to become too cold.
Below certain point, a semi
freezing takes place, impairing the
quality of the beer. It is well to
realize that beer is probably COM
parable to milk as a highly delicate
beverage. Do not place bottled beer
directly on the ice. Keep it rather
in the lower compartment of the re-
frigerator, at a temperature of
about thirty-six to thirty-eight de-
grees. It will then be served at
about forty degrees, which is best
suited to bring out the flavor of
good beer.

New Recipes For Contest
Are Coming In

The new recipe contest announc-
ed recently is getting under way.
The prizes will be given to those
who send in the most unusual
single recipes. These may be reci-
pes for desserts, soups, meats,
salads, sandwiches-in fact, any,
thing which makes for greater in
terest in a dish. Here, for instance,
is one which was submitted by a
professional chef, hence is not in
competition:
DANISH SANDWICH PLATE
Use thin slices of pumpernickel
bread with crusts trimmed off.
Spread each slice thickly with good
butter. On some place bits of cold
meat, on others, use sliced. smoked
salmon and sturgeon. Make few
with sardines and anchovies and
some with hard boiled egg, while
chicken and turkey is always sure
to please. Spread each meat COW
ering with a bit Of mayonnaise.
Dot with bits Of horse-radish or
thin wafer like slices Of cucumber
over the meats, while selected let
tuce leaves are best for the fowl.
Finely minced onion is best with
the fish. Place top layer of bread
ON each. Press well together. Wrap
in damp napkin and let stand in
refrigerator for an hour. Arrange
on large platter, garnish with rad
ishes, onions, olives and celery

An Important
Role In Italy
Italian Recipes Provide Novel
Methods Of Preparing
Vegetables

AS usual when we are at gath
Jering of any kind, the discussion Of
food and food preparation arises.
At luncheon the other day we
decided that instead Of being asked
so many questions we would ask
few. And as vegetables were being
served they became the object Of
discussion. We asked the fifteen
other guests just how they cooked
their vegetables and with the ex-
ception of a few variations, the
vegetables were merely washed,
and boiled in sailed water. It was
then our turn to talk about the
ways Of cooking vegetables and
here is an assortment of Italian
recipes we gave. Perhaps you will
find them interesting too.
ASPARAGUS A LA
FLORENTINE

Sandwiches
An Invention
OF The English
Earl Of Sandwich Credited
With This Idea. These
Recipes Developed In
&s piqs.G~csI

The story goes that once there
were no sandwiches. Then, one day,
busy over a game of cards, the
English Earl of Sandwich turned
to servant in the club house and
asked him to bring slice of meat
and place it between two slices of
bread so it could all be eaten while
the game was in progress. And
then and there the sandwich was
born.
England has liked sandwiches
ever since. And here are a few
good ones, developed in England,
and very popular there:
CUCUMBER SANDWICH
1 large cucumber
Dreamed butter
Thin sliced bread
Salad oil
Lemon juice or vinegar
Salt and pepper
Peel the cucumber, slice it thin.
ly, season literally with salt, drain
on hair sieve for / hour, and dry
thoroughly. Now put it into bas-
in and sprinkle with pepper, salad
oil, lemon juice, or vinegar, liber.
ally or according to taste. Have
ready some thin slices of bread and
butter, cut some rounds Of suitable
size, place slices of cucumber be-
tween 2 rounds Of bread, and press
the parts well together.
EGG AND CHUTNEY
SANDWICHES
Hard boiled eggs,
Chutney,
Thin sliced bread

Boil the eggs, shred the whites
of the eggs or chop them coarsely,
crush the yolks with a wooden
spoon, and add chutney gradually
until a moist paste is obtained
Prepare some thin slices of bread
and butter, spread half of them
with the egg mixture, add a thin
layer of whites of egg, and cover
with more bread and butter. Press
well, trim, and cut into squares,
oblongs, triangles. or crescents.

Window shades, may be washed
with considerable satisfaction.
Spread the shade over a fat sur
face, rub it briskly with a sponge
dipped frequently in suds. Do not
allow the suds to remain long
enough to soak the fabric. Rub off
the suds with the sponge squeezed
out of clear water, and dry
thoroughly.

A good way to tell mushrooms
from toadstools without eating and
waiting for results, is to peel an
onion and put it with the fungi
while cooking. IF the onion remains
white, they may be eaten with con-
fidence, but If It turns black, they
are not fit to eat.

Dunkers--Here
Are The Recipes
You've Waited For
Hartford Crullers And New
England DOughnuts Delicious
In Any Climate
BY Wilma E. Deute

Down from Vermont, there came
to Mortified School, a certain
Miss Rawson to cook for the girls
in Kenhome House. And with her
came the best doughnuts that one
could want for breakfast. And
with her, too, came that good near
relation Of the doughnut, namely,
the Hartford Cruller.
On the breakfast tables at
Mortified, there were plates of
pie, other plates of assorted sliced
cake, but when the doughnuts or
crullers came, nothing else matter
ed. Of course the crisp, dry air Of
the upper fringe of Massachusetts.
which is where Mortified may be
found, has much to do with sur
rounding the doughnut and cruller
with deliciousness, but even at that
the recipe is so fine, for each one
of these food CONNECTIONS, that they
should please in any cline:
HARTFORD CRULLERs
2 eggs, well beaten
cup sugar
2 cups milk
A cups flour
2 tablespoons butter
31z teaspoons baking powder
u teaspoon grated nutmeg
teaspoon salt
Cream the butter and sugar to.
gether and add the other ingred-
tents. Mix thoroughly. Place the
dough on a well Toured board and
pat lightly with the hands until
just stiff enough to cut out the
crullers with a cruller cutter, or
cut in thin strips and shape into
circle with hole in the center,
pressing the ends together and
shaping round. Fry in deep hot fat
until brown and drain on crumpled
paper. Roll in confectionery sugar.
NEW ENGLAND DoUGHNUTS
2 tablespoons butter, melted
IN cups sugar
2 eggs
4 cups -four
3 teaspoons baking powder
Y teaspoon salt
" teaspoon cinnamon
n teaspoon nutmeg
1 cup milk
Add the sugar to the melted
butter and beat thoroughly. Beat
eggs and add to the sugar. Sift the
dry ingredients and add alternate
ly with the milk to above mixture.
Have dough a little sitter than a
biscuit dough. Roll out Il inch on a
Toured board. Cut with doughnut
cutter and fry in deep hot fat.
Turn once to brown other side. Re-
move to brown paper to drain.
Sprinkle with powdered sugar or
leave plain.

When entertaining at bridge, re-
xreshments may be served on the

If you pour scalding water over
fish you wish to dress you will find
that it will scale twice as easily.
Dash the water on. Do not let the
fish stand in it a moment.

When cooking greens or cauli-
flower always put a piece of stale
bread crust in the saucepan, as it
will take away all the unpleasant
smell. Take out with spoon before
taking up greens.

Toiletries for
the Trip

This is the time Of the year
when we begin to feel like going
on trips. Our holidays usually
mean at least a short trip or
weekend, and then it is time to
make preparations for the annual
journey to some land of sunshine.
The trips that take us away
for the season can be managed
very easily, as we always take
enough bags and trunks to pack
our things in an orderly way.
There are containers and boxes
for all of the liquids in our toilet
articles so they may be packed
and carried safely.
The short trips, however, is
what calls for real genius in pack
ing. OF course, if you have q good
fitted case, there is nothing to
worry about, but when the numer-
Gus bottles, jars and little boxes
must be included in your one
weekend suitcase, you must dc
your packing long before you be-
gin to dress for your trip.
Do not attempt to carry car
tons or boxes, except the very
small ones, as odd boxes among
wearing apparel take up too much
space in packing. Little rubber
lied bags are fine for keeping liq-
uids safe, after they are packed.
Shoes may be utilized to carry
the perfume and lotion bottles
after they are placed in the thin
rubber bags. Cream jars also are
packed in this way, as are the
face and bath powders. Have
an adequate bag, especially for
the powders, as you know how dis
astrous a broken powder box
would be among your gowns.
Make it a rule to remove or
cover your gown whenever you
use powder. There is no other
way to be sure you do not scat
ter some about.
II you do not have a copy Of
the young girls toilet requisites,
/ will be glad to send you the lsit.

ForDayhn1e
Or Night
Affairs
By WILMA LAvILLE

TO a fashion editor who has
always loved her tailored suits,
nothing could be quite as
gratifying as a season such as
this is. Every straw in the
wind blows right into the
breast pocket of a tailored
suit, or falls somewhere near
one. For you'll find the
tailored theme in every phase
of the mode, from southern
resort clothes to evening cos
tunes.
The m a gazine Vogue gives
credit to the well-dreSsed men
Of this country and England,
Fred AStaire, Anthony Eden, and
so on. True, we see them in the
movies and rotogravure sections
In all manner of good looking
suits. And it's no wonder that
we d e m IN d more and better
tailleurs. Their flawless appear
ance should be boost to better
quality and more careful groom
ing, for those are the things that
make for tailored chic. Vogue
says:
Masculine Efficiency
"They have their wardrObes
down to Q system-a series Of
classics flawlessly suited to their
days. And this, too, is desirable
to . modern woman, whose busy
life grows more and more COM
parable to q mans. So desirable
that she turns cOpy-cat and steals
ideas from mems clothes for her
self. All this has nothing to do
with Marlene Dietrich and her
pants, but with practical and
tailored fashions for daylight and
dark"
+ The newest steal from mems
clothes is the dinner suits that
have been popular in Europe for
q season or two, but are just be-
ginning to be seen in America
to any extent. We came to them
slowly, being content with our
long evening gowns with jackets,
that we could wear to dinner, or
with street length metal or other
formal costumes.
After-Dark Chic
For real after-dark smartness,
however, when you're going out
to dine or to the theater, when for
mai dress would be too much, the
dinner suit is ideal. Women are
beginning to wonder how they
ever got along without them.
They are mannish or slightly fem
inine, as you prefer. but most of
them make no effort to be soft.
A jabot on the blouse, or silk in
stead Of wool is enough conceS-
sion to femininity.
There are not many Of these
dinner suits in Washington yet
this is really just a warning to
watch for them. They are coming,
however, and in the meantime,
we can content ourselves with
dressing in the best tailored man
ner in the daytime, for suits are
going to be better this spring than
ever.
Resort wardrobes and cruise
wardrobes are almost never consi-
dered complete without at least
one suit for travel, white linen
or other daytime suit, and even
Vol1r beach wardrobe will be bet
ter for tailored details.

be used or a small red pepper
may be cooked with the gumbo.
If oysters are used, cook and
add to gumbo about Is minutes
before serving. Boiled rice must
accompany gumbo, about two or
three tablespoons put in the bot
