A Real Delight

In m1d-afternoon, following a
rest period, we get another glass of
milk with crackers, or maybe
little bread and butter sandwich.
Back to the lunch. Sometimes
we have an all-vegetable lunch
when we might have potatoes,
green asparagus, beetS and stewed
tomatoes. Miss Frances Lippman,
director of the school, sees to it
that all vegetables are fresh.
OF course we have baked apple
for dessert only once every week
or two. Other days we have
junket, or prune whip, or apple
sauce, or rice pudding, or jello, or
something else equally delicious.
So you surely agree that eating is
one of the delights of going to
school in this modern age.
In some schools the plates are
served buffet style and the chill

their own to a little table. Not so
with us. We are properly served,
thank you, and we know which
fork to use, too.

3-SeCtion Mirror
.EnIivens Room

Mirrors are being more widely
used than ever as a form of deco
ration, replacing pictures. Interior
decorators agree that use of mir
rors on walls increases the size Of
q room. Your guests will welcome
a convenient mirror in living room
or hall. The Hugh Reilly Com
pany is offering at the Washing
ton Herald Times cooking school a
lovely modernistic mirror, made
in three sections. The size is 24x
SO. suitable for variety of uses.
This mirror would find a very at
tractive location above console
table, as a piece of wall decora-
ton, or above an open fireplace.
There are two panels, six inches
wide, on either side of the cen-er
section, tinted a soft peach color,
which adds warmth to the effect.
ModerniStic designs are etched
into the glass on these panels.
In addition to this award, the
Hugh Reilly Company is giving
away another mirror at its store.
The winner will be drawn from
those attending the cooking school
lectures.

LIGHT CRUSTS
ARE ASSURED

Many an otherwise excellent
cook comes to grief over her pies.
What is a source of real sorrow to
many can be averted in an incredi.
bly, simply way. There need be no
more soggy, tough crusts when the
cook uses Fixt, the ready-to-use pie
crust and waffle batter. Pies can
be prepared in half the time, with
results assured beforehand.
Waffles are the perfect dish for
Sunday night supper, as we'll as
for breakfast. Many delightful
variations on the ordinary waffle
theme can be arranged simply by
the addition of different syrupS
and spreads. The Fixt Company
is offering at the Washington Her.
ald-Times Cooking School a double
waffle iron, the perfect foil for it's
product. The iron is valued at $25.

kindergarten

When we are only five and go
to the Peter Pan kindergarten on
Park Road just off Sixteenth
Street Northwest. we are quite So
phiSticated and discard our bibs
at table.
It's napkins for us, just as for
our 12-year-old sisters in the
higher grades. Bibs are for ba-
bies, who are only two, but nap
kins are for folk who know how
to be mannerly at table and eat
not spill-the food that's set be-
fore them,
OF course at Peter Pan there's
every inducement to be quite
grown-up at table. Doctors long
ago discarded the theory that a
normal, healthy child can't have
this and this and this, but must
have that and that and that.
Meals Like GrOUn-Ups
Consequently, when we are five
and 60 to the Peter Pan School
we know we are going to have
meals that look like the delicious,
tempting lunches which might be
set before any grown-ups.
It's not because we are babies
that we can'S have pork or ham.
Our mothers don't eat pork so very
often, either. And it snot because
we are PRACTICAL infants that we
have meat just twice week.
We've heard the doctors pro-
nounce that a good rule for lots
of folk to follow-and with prices
being what they are, we bet you
don't eat meat much oftener than
we do.
However, just watch us when we
have lamb or a good roast-and
sometimes we can have veal.
Chicken and fish are two Of our
favorite foods.
Here's sample lunch: A juicy
lamb chop nicely broiled, fresh
green peas mixed with diced car
rots, a baked potato, bread, butter,
half pint Of milk, and a baked
apple.
Of course we might get hungry
in the morning, so we have glass
of nilk-or maybe orange juice
to break the never-preSent monot-
ony Of our play.

HAMADAN RUG
SCHOOL PRIZE

One of the loveliest prizes to be
given at the Herald! Times Cook
ing School is a Hamadan rug, the
gift of Manoukian Brothers. The
rug has a silky finish of finest
lambs wool. It is size 2.4x4.5,
with a rose background and tur-
quoise blue border, interspersed
with a holy green color of the
Orient.
Some in America understand
more clearly than others the re-
ligious or philosophical import of
colors in the Orient. For instance,
green is a sacred color, which
was never allowed to be placed in
private homes. Rugs containing
that color were used only in
mosques or in the homes of high
priests. The gift is valued at $35.
