LAKE COMPOUNCE

A heat wave is forecast for Sum- day night at the Spanish Gardens, Lake Compounce, when Joe venuti. 'The Worlds Hottest Fiddler" !" brings his NEG orchestra to that popular dance rendezvous. Acclaim cd from coast to coast as "The Sul- tan of Swing" Venutis outstanding achievement was the breaking of all attendance records at the General Motors show in Omaha. One-third of the city's population, 82,60O peo- ple. swarmed into the huge audi torium during the week to enjoy his famous swing rhythns. This amazing draw was accomplished not only in some of the worst winter weather, in which locomotion was nearly impossible owing to non- negotiable terrain, but the people who did come, knew they would have to stand up to watch the per- formance. And according to the Omaha News, "The entertainment justifled the public's mad rush to see it. The new ballroom at Lake Compounce with floor space for some 3,OOO people allows the uanCerS ample room to enjoy the music of the famous bands that are being brought to the Spanish Gardens each week. The tree-embowered set- ting of the ballroom swept by cool breezes from the lake and flooded by beautiful colored lights makes It one of the show place sof Connecti- cut.
 The lake management has ar- ranged for another big display of fireworks Saturday night to climax an evening of roller skating and dancing to Mike DiVito and his or- chestra of Waterbury.
 The fine concert presented by the New Departure band last week was SO well received by the crowd that they have been engaged to play an- other concert next Sunday aftrenoon from 2 to 5 D. m. Special weekend menus have been planned for the Egyptian Grill with prompt and courteous service at reasonable prices.

Feathered Heads.

WE WILL wear feathers on
w our heads this fall-in the
daytime and in the evening.
You know already that feathers
make fashion news on hats, and
do so no less in the evening, as
hair ornaments. They're the
most beguiling things you've
ever seen-these new evening
headdresses. Many of them
seem inspired by the coming
coronation. Some others are
decidedly "Juliet." Others
have a Mary of Scotland look,
while there's one that is even
Gorgeous Hussy." The feather
ones are the best, we think.
There are little curled ostrich
tips in various colors, to stick
here and there in your hair.
There are coronets of tips, and
coronets of gaily colored flat
feathers. Be sure you look be-
fore you finish assembling your
winter evening wardrobe. They
are many, too many, to describe,
and prices are as varied.

Feeling that there might be
others who are dissatisfied with
soft, moist, sticky rice, it seemed
a subject of general interest.
A food such as rice, high in
starch and easily digested. can
be used to advantage on menus
planned for growing children. It's
high caloric content is an ad-
vantage in order to provide energy
for their activity and proper de-
velopment.
Leftover rice can be used in
desserts. Instead of the usual
raisin rice custard, try combining
it with fresh or canned fruit.
In cooking rice, first be sure
that it is washed thoroughly so
that all free starch is removed.
Often it will take four or five
washings to accomplish this. Then
drop into rapidly boiling water
and cook in the following man
ner:
Rice Cookery
1 cup of rice
4 cups of boiling water
3 teaspoons of salt
Wash the rice thoroughly in
several waters until all the loose
starch is removed. Drain. Have
the boiling water ready in a deep
saucepan, add the salt, slowly
drop in the rice and allow it
to cook slowly for Is minutes or
until a grain pressed between the
thumb and finger is soft.
To prevent the rice from stick
ing to the pan lift from time to
time from the bottom of the pan
but do not stir it. When cooked,
turn the rice into a colander or
sieve. A little hot water may be
run through the rice to wash off
extra starch. After the water
has drained off, cover with a
cloth and set over a pan of hot
water on the back of the stove
or in the oven. The grains
swell and are kept separate.
Rice and Cheese CrOquettes
2 cups of cooked rice
l egg
/ teaspoon of salt
p pound of grated cheese
/ tablespoon Of lemon juice
Bread crumbs
Beat the egg. Add to the rice
with the grated cheese, salt, and
lemon juice. Mold into croquettes
Roll in beaten egg and in fine
bread crumbs. Heat deep fat to
$50 degrees or test with cube OF
bread. If it browns the bread cube
in 40 seconds it is the proper tenn
perature for frying. Add the GRO
