Times Cooking School Holds Its First Class
Recipes Given
For Tasty
Tidbits
By JEAN GREEN

Our first Government girls
cooking school was a success.
It was a thrill to be able to well
come such an enthusiastic audi
ence. 1t is the official o. K. on
this new idea that the Govern
ment gal and the working gal
have been the forgotten persons
as far as food experts are con-
cerned.
Starting with the idea that there
are many girls in Washington who
love home cooking but feel that
they have neither the time nor the
money to spend for such luxury,
the school concentrated it's first ef-
forts on exploding this idea.
The meal was planned for two,
prepared in 80 minutes, and cost
IS cents--and was the filling sort
of meal that even the best boy
friend would approve.
At exactly 4:45, school started
when Miss Ashenfelter, the di-
etitian-in.chief of the Government
cafeterias, explained the purpose
of the new Times cooking school.
Many thanks go to Miss Ashen-
felter and Miss Mcfey, the dietitian
at the Potomac Park.
Miss McVey, the slender bru'
nette with the attractive smile,
has been of tremendous help In
getting the school started.
The preparations for our dinner
for two started at 5 o'clock and
at exactly $50 it was ready to
serve, Here is the menu and 1
know that you will want the
recipes used in preparing this
meal.
Our next class will be at the
same spot at 4:45 next THURSDAY
on the subject of brunch. I be-
lieve YOU will be just as interesting
in hearing about the menu and
recipes for it is the perfect way
for the Government gal to enter
tain.

CREDIT WOMEN
MEETING HERE
LIKE JOBS

The poor credit manager who
oft times suffers the reputation of
a ShyloCk in the public mind had
plenty of opportunity to talk over
his troubles with his colleagues
yesterday at a regional conference
of the Retail Credit Association
held in the MayfloWer Hotel.
But what Mr.. and Mrs, John Q.
Public have been missing for nigh
all these years of bill collections
are the charming personalities OF
the feminine brigade members
who take charge Of credit in their
respective towns.
Attending the conference at the
MayfloWer were Miss Laura E.
Grigoleit. manager of the Retail
Merchants Credit Bureau Of
Schenectady, N. Y: Florence FTaW-
ley, pretty head of the bureau at
Towanda, Pa. and Mary Froellch,
secretary of the credit bureau at
York, Pa.
They're Really Nice
All three are the complete an
tithesis of the hardboiled seem
ingly heartless wretch who hauntS
the customer night and day in the
name of honorable credit" Miss
Grigoleit. an unaSSuming middle
aged woman, has been with the
Schenectady organization for 18
years. It's the only job she has
ever had and says she wouldn't
give it up for anything. Asked how
she feels in going after people to
pay up" she replied:
There's a lot of satisfaction
in going after an account the
storekeepers have given up for
lost. Most people don't mean
to dodge billS-they just forget
to pay. Many who are able to
pay fail to do so because they
are lax and forget.
"You say it's odd to find
women doing a job like this.
don't think so. It's good train
ing for girls and they learn so
much more in a credit or cOllec-
tion bureau about people that
helps them in doing other
things. Besides, our work is
easier now in that collections
are so much better than in past
years, although they haven't yet
returned to the peak of 1929
1890"
WITH YORK BUREAU
Miss Mary Froelich, lady with
a pleasing smile and in her early
thirties, has been with the York,
Pa, credit bureau since 1925 when
it was organized. She says she
grew up with the organization"
and wouldn't miss the fine train
ing it affords. Her work is chiefly
to investigate buyers for their
past employment history, credit
regulations and standing in the
community. She does all Of this
work in York herself and admits
she knows quite a bit about the
citizens of her community.
For Miss Florence FraWley of
Towanda, Pa, the conference is
her first and all the talk by the
oldsters in the credit business is
eagerly noted in a small memor-
andum book. Towanda is little
town of 5000, she says, but it has
its problems too. The credit or
ganization in her town disinte-
grated about 18 months ago, and
she was one of the principals who
reorganized it with the aid of the
chamber of commerce. She looks
and acts the part of an executive
and one to whom it would be a
pleasure to settle a dead &C.
count"
