they fit in especially well in lieu of bread, toast or pastry desserts.
 And Waffles need not be eXpen- sive. You will find any number of recipes in various cookbooks, some of which go to extremes in the number of eggs used; some calling for cream instead of milk. But you will also find economical recipes that are exceedingly good in texture and flavor. Here is one good and reliable one:
 Summer Wafflcs
 2 cups pastry flour
 3 teaspoons baking powder
 tablespoon sugar
 % teaspoon salt
 2 eggs
 IF cups milk
 1 tablespoons melted butter
 Mix and sift the dry indgredients, beat the egg yolks until thick and lemon colored and add alternately with milk to flour mixture Add meletd butter and fold in the bea- ten whites of eggs. Bake on hot waffle iron, preferably @ good elec- tric iron with a red light guage to notify you of the correct cooking time.
 When there is a little chicken left over from f~tend or baked chic ken served on Sunday make a creamed chicken hash or chicken la king and use the freshly baked waffles as a crouton or patty in- stead of toast or pastry This al- ways makes a tempting summer supper dish. and with the addi- ton of a salad of mixed vegetables is all you need for the main course
 Instead of making the usual shortcake for the berry dessert pile crushed strawberries or whole fresh raspberries (sweetened to taste) upon the hot buttered waf- flo, top with another waffle gafnish with berries and top with whipped cream. If you are using a full size iron, two quarter -sec- tors will be sufficient for each peron, Of course.
 There is no noticeable heating of the room when using a good electric waffle iron, and 1t is con- vefsfent to bake the waffles at the table for informal or family meals, When you notice signs of abating interest in your cold summer menus, add this little touch to occasional meals and see how nicely 1t bridges the gap between the all cold menu and the hot one.
