FUN, INSTRUCTION AND
PRIZES FEATURE
SCHOOL PLANS

A welcome nVltatlOn W tiiS
wise is sufficient.
Evidently The Gazette will not
have to get out engraved an
nouncements for that reunion of
homemakers to be held May IL,
ID and 10 in the Redwood theater.
No door cards, coupons, printed
invitations, or cash will be need
ed: Just the countersign of all
alert housekeepers, who are due
to say "Show me the latest home
ideas" when they advance on
the Redwood for the three day
matinee.
Showing every person in every
theater seat the triumphant new
1887 cooking school, direct from
Hollywood, will be no problem
for motion picture ingenuity has
joined forces with scientific
homemaking to produce an orr
ginal laboratory course that deft-
ly combines romance, sprightly
humor, originality and profitable
instruction.
All of the popular features of
the former cooking school are
the free recipe sheets, the atmos-
phere of congenial informality,
the wise counsel, the hints on
clever shortcuts, the up-to-the
minute suggestions for entertain
ing, the demonstration of delic-
ious and nourishing dishes, the
array of modern kitchen equip
ment and the distribution of daily
gifts and real surprises.
All those elements of fun and
profit have been retained, and all
are made doubly worthwhile be-
cause every guest of The Gazette
and Redwood Falls merchants
will have an Individual closeup
of every process.
This scientific new laboratory
of ideas has graduated out of the
class where hundreds of women
craned their necks in vain
attempt to see what was happen
ing on the stage, or assailed the
lecturer with plaintive cries:
Hold it up high, where we all
can see."
Now the camera will make the
course truly fascinating and val
liable, with remarkable close-ups
of each process in a series of
model OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES
kitchens; real, workable kitchens,
(not the synthetic, false-front
Variety, where trained home
makers will plan, measure, blend,
mix and complete appetizing
cakes, pies, salads and meat dish
es that look as though they could
be picked right out of the picture
and eaten on the spot.
Keeping pace with the baking,
roasting and frying, a series of
salads and frozen delicacies will
parade in and out of the adapt
able electric refrigerator, which
will reveal its host of possibilities
for simplifying labor and market
ing and contributing to good
health and good food.
What to do with left-overS?
How to take the gloom out of
laundry day? How to save time,
energy and temper in meal pre-
paration? How to be attractive in
spite of the daily rush? How to
make that piecrust the men love
to eat? How to give first-aid to
fallen cakes?
1t won't be necessary to ask
questions, for expert home spec
ialists have anticipated these very
problems. They know what both
er many and experienced house
keeper, because it is their job to
know and to counsel helpfully.
And the camera has assembled
all that sound information - not
as a routine lecture, not as for
NAL ''highbrow" demonstration,
but as a real Romance of Home
making, full of suspense and
charm, and informal chats from
one-good-cook- to-another.
- What about the story and what
about the cast?
Some familiar Hollywood faces
will be recognized in this pro-
duction, which was filmed and
directed in one of the famous
West Coast studios. The heroine
is a winsome bride, who shares
the perplexities of many an older
housekeeper. Actually the title
should be cit Might Happen
Here" for the human story has
universal appeal. And it might
have happened right in this COM
munity.
