The fashionable table settings il natural wood which made their appearance on the smartest outdoor tables this summer have moved indoors with the fall of the first leaf, where they continue to delight us with the beauty of their grain and markings. These wooden sets, complete from service plates to cosaters, often form part of another formal scheme, where the wood -idea is further carried out in stunning new centerpieces of bowl and can dlesticks such as one cornbira- ton in zebra wood and bright cera- mic, or one in blond and dark wall nut plus crystal, or 8 happy union of gilt and tawny wolnut.
 Then again, woodenware fits with equal facility into such 8 simple day-to-day setting as the one illustrated. Here the whole service, plates, coasters, ash-tray, cutlery handles and all, fashioned of American walnut is set on a sturdy mat of woven raffia. The water glass is decorated with a pair

rripe, perfect bananas: add Orie- half cup Of powdered sugar ani two teaspoons of lemon juice. Let stand in the refrigerator for olle- half hour, then force the fruit through sieve. Beat one egg white until very stiff and fold the fruit into it. Whip one-half cup of heavy cream and fold into the fruit mixture, then add oTie-half can of the rnoist-packed coconut. Pile lightly in slnerbet glasses, and chill until time to serve.
 For the next recipe you will need freshly baked tart sheIls, which may be bought already made. I personally like to serve the small tarts which are no larger than a sherbet cup; but for family use you may prefer the larger sizes.
 Orange COcOnut Tarts
 Sift together one cup of sugar. five and one-half tablespoons of flour, and a pinch of salt. Gradu- ally add to this one cup of orange juice, mixing thoroughly. Cook until thickened in a double boiler, stirring all the while. Re- move from the fire and pour a little of the mixture over the yolks of two eggs, slightly beaten. Re- turn to the double boiler and cook several minutes more. Add one tablespoon butter, two tablespoons lemon juice and the grated rind of one orange. When cool, fold in one stiffly beaten egg white.
 Fill the tart shells with the orange mixture. Top each tart with a coconut meringue made by beating the remaining egg white until it is foamy, then adding two tablespoons of sugar and beat ing until it stands up in points. Add to this one-hahlf can of the shredded coconut. This makes a very nice dessert for buffet or bridge luncheon ser- vice, or any informal occasion where theer is simple menu.

It requires real strength of char acter to turn down delicious dish just because you know 1t will add 100 or 200 extra calories to your carefully planned diet for the day.

Whether you have the dry shredded coconut or that which comes rnoist-packed in ins makes little difference, although I my self find the latetr more like the fresh nut meat that is grated or the spot in the kitchen.

Your Mashed Potatoes

Besides the customary boiled,
steamed or baked potatoes, there
are many other ways in which they
may be served. Perhaps the favor
tie way is the mashed potato. When
properly prepared, there is nothing
better, but there is an art in pre-
pairing mashed potatoes. They must
first be well-cooked, either boiled
or steamed, then broken up well
with a potato masher. Next, sea-
son with salt, pepper and butter and
add hot milk, beating vigorously,
until the whole mass is smooth and
fluffy.
The new type electric mixer
makes potato MASKING much easier.
Use the beaten on low speed to
break up potatoes. Increase speed
as potatoes become creamy. Turn
to low speed to avoid splashing, and
add hot milk, in which butter has
been melted, salt and pepper. After
all is added, increase speed to med
ium or high and beat until fluffy.
When possible, it is best to mash po-
tatoes in the saucepan in which
they were cooked so that they do
not cool off in being transferred.
Try the following different ways
OF serving potatoes

Different Ways to
Serve Potatoes

Potatoes are widely used in the
American diet. They may be serv-
ed repeatedly by the homemaker
without apology. The potato is
a native of America, said first to
be found in Chill, and it was not
commonly cultivated in Europe UNI
til the eighteenth century.
Potatoes are the best starchy veg
etable, because besides furnishing
carbohydrates to the diet, they also
furnish bulk and valuable mineral
salts and vitamins. They are SO
bland in flavor that they are ideal
combined with other foods of more
decided flavor.
