Dressing Up The Pantry

After the onslaughts of the holi- days, the poor pantry does indeed show signs of year. Its shelves are somewhat disorderedl its supplies depleted: it's festive air departed.
 You will want to rest for a week perhaps, from the thought of fur- ther culinary tasks; but very soon thereafter give some attention to replenishing and dressing up the pantry. Nothing is 50 necessary to the morale of the cook as is the appearance of this part of her kitchen. In fact, good planning and inspiration depend upon 1t.
 In the dime store can be found the sraartest of tinted papers to renew the pantry shelves; there, too, one can find bindings in gay colors for the shelf edges. These come in quaint patterned chintz or water-proofed fabrics piped with Q plain color picking tip some shade from the design, and one puts them on with colored thumb tacks.
 It adds greatly to the appearance of the average cupboard to paint the inside walls in a color that is found in the decorative scheme of the kitchen. Tn this case, of course, the bindings and shelf papers will be chosen to harmonize.
 Pretty little jars and crooks to hold spices, cracker crumbs and odds and ends of like nature can be picked up for a few cents each |.

l< We also include in the cereal group rnacaronl, spaghetti and ver- micelli, which are made from wheaton flour rich in gluten. Many other preparations are made from cereals, used alone or in combina- ton with other food products.
 In cooking cereals, care must be taken to have the starch grains thoroughly done. The use of the double moiler has helpd to improve the preparation of these foods, as 1t prevents gcorching or burning of the cereal and allows for long cook. ing. However, some of the cereals on the market are partly cooked, 50 that the long-tirne cooking of such products as oatmeal and cracked wheat is no longer neces- sary, although in all cases thorough cooking of cereals makes them more readily digestible and appe- tizing.
 Oatmeal, whole wheat cereals and other grains are more attractive to some tastes when theyare cooked with raisins or dates. For a good breakfast oatmeal, take threc- fourths cup oatmeal, one teaspoon salt, two cups boiling water, and put in the top part of double boiler. Boil five minutes over the

 Whatever heat you have in your house, you should have some means of providing moisture. Humidifiers may be bought from prices rang ing from very few cents up to the very handsome ones that harmon 1ze with your surroundings. If 1t is necessary, your kitchensauce pans can be pressed into service. In an emergency, wet crash towel hung over the radiator or near stove will greatly refresh the air and give 1t needed moisture.

High temperatures produce mental lassitude and phy- sical inertia, particularly when ac- companied by poor ventilation, so that one is forced to breathe vitia- ted air. Ventilate your room so that the air is alway moving. Most air also is more easily heated and moisture means a smaller coal bill. Air with moisture in 1t is not 50 drying to furniture.
 In planning your ventilation, you will find that temperature of 72 to 30 degrees without any moisture in the air seems more chill than a temperature of 66 to 70 degrees with moisture added.
 Dress your child 50 that he will be comfortable, with plenty of room for freedom and movement. In a house that is properly heated, his clothing need not be very heavy for indoor wear; care should be taken to protect him when he goes out doors, of course. In selecting clothes for outdoor wear, such as coats, bear in mind that the warmth is not due to mere heavi- ness. Some of the warmest and most satisfactory coat materials are light in weight. Sweaters are very desir- able for children because they are light and warm and permit easy movement.
 Outdoor play and proper ventila- ton with the house afe apt to produce very lively appetites. And one of the problems confronting mothers of young children is that of satisfying the craving for sweets. In 50 doing, think of sweets as food to be served in place of desserts not between meals.

A meat loaf is one answer to the homemaker's prayer for something new to serve her family. Meat loaves are thrifty of her time and her purse strings, and they can be prepared in variety of novel ways two good reasons why they are boon to many menus. Every meal planner should have a choice col- lection of meat loaf recipes to draw on when she needs a new dish-recipes that vary the basic ifl- gradients often, using beef one time, lamb another, then pork and then veal. These recipes should also in- clude spicy condiments-Tomato Ketchup, Prepared Mustard and Worcestershire Sauce combined with hard cooked eggs, Cooked Spaghetti, Vegetable Soup, Pickles and Olives, to step up the flavor and give dash to your dishes.

Secretary American Bridge League
A T present a great deal of dis
IA cussion and thought is being
given to international bridge. On
every occasion the American play
er has proved himself far superior
to our friends across the sea.
The English do not like the
American bridge rules and Eng
lish bridge writer's are inclined to
take a friendly jab at American
players. whenever given the oppor-
tunity. However, I notice that in
the British Bridge magazine the
more prominent articles are writ
ten by Americans.
Take, for example, the one writ
ten by F. K. Perkins, of Boston,
which appeared in a recent issue
of the magazine under the title,
Stripping Them Down." This is
one of the best I have read on the
end play.
Here is his first example:
West opens the king OF dia-
monds and, when a singleton
shows up in dummy, he shifts to
the queen of hearts. Declarer can
see that, to make his doubled con-
tract, he has to keep from losing
two clubs and a trump trick.
AS West has doubled the con-
tract, he undoubtedly holds the
king of trump; therefore, the play
of the hand is planned on this
assumption.
The ace of hearts Is cashed and
a small heart ruffed. The ace of
trump is played, but the king does
not drop. Now declarer ruffs a
diamond, then returns a heart and
ruffs. Another diamond is ruffed
and then the last heart from
dummy is ruffed.
Now declarer is ready to grant
West his trump trick. SO he leads
a spade, throwing West into the
lead. West now has no play that
will permit him to make more
than one club trick.

So Ronnie had been right

Dana spoke stiffly, 'I''m sorry you

fine and when he likes you SO
much, too"

that again!"
"And what about Ronnie?"

l. Dana had waited until her grand
mother was well, and then one day
had broken the news.
"We won't tell any one," she
said. "We're planning to go off
one night soon, drive to Lakeville
and be married. I couldn't bear
any publicity. And Ronnie doesn't
want it, either. Afterward we will
go on honeymoon. Take
cruise-that's what Ronnie
wants"
Lines of care were lifted from

couldn't manage it. Sentimental

element. Nothing could happen in

Have Jake get in that garden and
rake up all those leaves. Well have

that quick-drying stuff they use

Dana listened, a faint smile on
her face. The news of her plans
to marry Scott two years ago had
been received so differently. She
mustn't think of that now. She
must mark off those two years
From now on it must be as though
they had never happened.

toward Dana.

was sitting before the fire, letting il

eyes were charming under hel
