cooped up in a littl" cage.
She sat down in the kitchen chair she had
painted red to match her red teakettle and
waste basket and leaned her arm on the small
porcelain topped kitchen table and wept as
she had not wept before in all these weeks of
crying and feeling sorry for herself.
1t hadn't been so bad in the summer. al
though even then she hadn't liked it. She was
afraid of the crowds. and Cal thought that
was cute at first He had been more Jolly and
friendly then. They had gone swimming at
the pool in the city park She hadn't liked the
pool or the people in it, She had natural
country girls aversion to strangers But she
hadn't told Cal how she felt. Not at first. She
had gone in and splashed around and then
scrubbed and scrubbed herself when she got
home But when Cal wanted to go every Sun
day morning. she finally Just had to tell him
she didn't like it. and that she wanted to 90
to church. Cal had said he'd go to church
with her if she d go swimming before or after.
but she couldn't make herself get into that
big city pool again.

At home now the fields were covered deep
with snow. The kitchen was warm with its
bright curtains and the fire in the range. Hams

ALWAYS butchered just before Christmas, and
there would be head cheese and fresh sausage
and the turkey and the big tree in the parlor
and the fires in the tight wood stoves. The
horses coats would be long and when they
came running out OF the barn they would
snort and toss their heads like colts again and
their breath would be frosty on the still air.
The sky would be so blue and everything so
clean, with her mother cooking all kinds of
good things in the kitchen, and the younger
ones, Belle and Sue and Claude and Frank
all busy about the house and the chores.
A wave OF homesickness came over Maxine

stacks of plates and cups and bowls. instead
of three or four of everything. Oh. to see her
mother and put her arms around her neck
and weep on that soft breast and tell her
mother everything.
Maxine held her breath thinking of her
mother Why had they let her get married
and come to the city? She felt resentful all a
once as though they had betrayed her. But
they thought in the country, that an eighteen
vear-old girl was old enough for marriage

Cal wanted to 60 dancing at The Sunset

he worked with in the shops beyond the river.

For Good Iced Tea
Or Good Iced Coffee

People are already beginning to
think of iced tea and coffee for
luncheons and every now and then,
we run across a person who thinks
that serving them iced, is the way
to use up left over tea and coffee.
Well it's way, but very terrible
way. Iced tea and iced coffee, made
fresh, made properly and served
tastefully are such splendid warm
weather beverages that it is
shame to compromise with left
overs.
First, we must keep in mind that
tea and coffee for icing must be
made double strong to take care of
the melting ice which dilutes the
contents of the glass.
For tea, allow two to three tea
spoons of tea to a cup of boiling
water. Let it steep for approx
mately five minutes. Sleeping too
long extracts the tannin from the
leaves, thereby spelling the aroma
and taste. And no amount of fresh
water added to overly strong tea
will bring it back. This applies to
coffee, also.
In the case of both tea and cof-
fee, the clearest drink is made by
pouring the fresh, hot liquid over
the ice which has been placed in
tall, thin glasses.
With the iced tea, serve quarters
OF lemon or quarters of oranges.
And sprigs of mint, fresh from the
mint patch, add flavor and color.
For seasoning, use powdered sugar.
1t dissolves more readily than
graduated sugar.
While considering iced tea and
coffee, it is worth keeping in mind
that iced cocoa or chocolate are
grand warm weather drinks, es-
pecially for children. Keep a bottle
OF chocolate syrup in the refrigera-
tor.
Two tablespoons of syrup beaten
into a glass of milk and topped
with a fluff of whipped cream, and
there you are. Or drop a ball of
ice cream into the glass of milk
and chocolate. You'll be the hero
inc Of every child in the neighbor-
hood.

Suggestions To Help
Put Your Cakes In
The Dressed Up" Class

The secret of the success of
many a cake lies in the icing that
covers it. Each one of US has our
own special cake recipe, tried and
trustworthy, but now and again we
are weary of always presenting a
cake in the same dress. Here are
q few very choice spring coverings
which will surely please:
CHOCOLATE PEANUT ICING
2 tablespoons peanut butter
n cup canned chocolate
II cup melted butter
Mix the above ingredients well
and stir in enough confectioners'
sugar to make the icing the right
consistency to spread.
GRAPEFRUIT ICING
Beat one egg slightly, add one
Fourth cup melted butter and one
fourth cup canned grapefruit juice.
Add about one to one and one
fourth cups confectioners' sugar.
Beat until of the right consistency
70 spread. Tint a pale green if de-
sired. Cover sides and top of cake
with icing and dot with tiny bits
OF maraschino cherries.

Frozen Custard Solves
Light Dessert Problem

Who OF u can't remember
going to the circus and at some
time or the other, at one circus
or the other having eaten cones
6lled with great gobs Of frozen
custard. And what could be nicer
70 serve right in our own homes
that said frozen custard with q
nice fruit sauce. It's a real
solution to the light dessert prob
lem.
FROZEN CUSTARD
cup evaporated milk
2 teaspoon unflavored gelatine
8 tablespoons sugar

2 eggs
tablespoon vanilla
Scald the milk in the top of a

Sponge Cake Solves
Quick Dessert Problem

A sponge cake is grand to have
in the house. If you want quick
dessert you are never at loss
just top slices of it with fresh or
canned fruit and whipped cream
and the bill is completely filled.
There are dozens of uses for
sponge cake, and when one can
be baked with only three eggs
well, it pays to make one quite
often.
DELICATE SPONGE CAKE
cup sifted cake flour
l teaspoon baking powder
Is teaspoon salt
eggs
cup sugar
2 teaspoons lemon juice
6 tablespoons hot milk
Sift flour once, measure, add
baking powder, salt and sift to-
gether three times. Beat eggs
until very thick and light and
nearly white. Add sugar grad
ually, beating constantly. Add
lemon juice. Fold in flour
small amount at a time. Add
hot milk, mixing quickly until the
batter is smooth. Turn at once
into INCREASED pan and bake in
moderate oven $50 F. for 35 min
utes or until done. Remove from

Glen Echo Park Will
Open Saturday Evening

Only few more days remain until
the Grand Opening Of Glen Echo
Park, which takes place on Saturday,
April 10Th! Not in years has there
been so much to talk about, but the
management stresses two new attrac-
tons secured at great expense. One
is the "World Cruise" located on the
site of the former Old Mill. Here
travel lovers can satisfy their long
ings for visiting strange places. By
means of scenery, the visitor leaves
New York, and journeys to the ends
CT the earth, getting an amusing sur
prise before returning to the home
port.
Another departure from the usual
is the engagement of crack, well
known "Treveling Bands" we play in
the Spanish Garden Ball Room. Open
ing the season will be Little Joe
Hart, impersonator and character ar
fist, and his novel orchestra, well
known Travelling Bands" who play in
mention also are the twenty slick
new motor boats which will ply the
watery canal. New hair raising thrills
are promised by the improved Coaster
Dip, Whip, Pretzel, and Airplane
Swings. No visit to Glen Echo would
be complete of course without trip
to the Midway where more surprises
are in store for everyone.

Suggestions For Those
Hot Day LuncheOns

That time of the year is here
again when sandwiches have be-
come as much part of our daily
diet as iced tea or coffee. Before
we know it we will be serving them
out in the yard. or on the porch for
q group of friends who drop in for
the afternoon-but right now we
are still more or less confined to
the house-but in the house-or
out of the house a good sandwich
is still a treat.
AVOCADO SANDWICHES
Peel and mash the avocado pear
to a pulp. Season with salt and a
little pepper and spread between
thin slices of either white or rye
bread.
PEANUT BUTTER WITH
RELISH SANDWICHES
Peanut butter
Sweet pickle relish
Cream
Mix ingredients in the desired
proportions to taste by using
cream to make or spreading con-
sistency. Spread on thin slices of
whole wheat bread.
TUTTI FRUTTI SANDWICHES
u cup dates
u cup walnut meats
u cup sugar
6 maraschino cherries
2 tablespoons orange juice
" cup whipped cream
Put the fruits and nuts through
a food chopper, and then mix with
the orange juice. Add the whipped
cream and sugar and spread be-
tween thin slices Of buttered bread.

1t is fashionable to serve crack
ers with cottage cheese for dessert
at least once a week. They're a
welcome change, they fit into the
budget and free you from a lot of
kitchen work. And if desired-a
nice bowl of good strawberry jam
can well accompany this.

Before placing eggs in the water
to hard boil them, puncture the
fat end with pin. This will allow
the air to escape and thus the eggs
will not break in the water.

Sandwiches made in advance
should be covered with a barely
