How And When
To Use Garlic

There are certain rules and req
ulations regarding the use of gar
Tic that are not written but under
stood by one and all. One great
rule to remember is not to eat
garlic alone or you will be ostrac-
lsed from polite society for a day
or two. If one must eat this de-
lclous, spice, do so in company
with those with whom you intend
to spend the next several hours
and serve it in such a dish:
SPANISH RICE
cup rice
4 tablespoons fat
onions. chopped
z cups strained tomatoes or
ripe tomatoes
2 cloves garlic
/! red or green pepper, chopped or
l canned pimento
2 teaspoons salt
Wash rice thoroughly, place in
frying pan with bacon or poultry
Tat, add onion and the garlic mine
ed fine. Let frv 10 minutes. add the
rest of the ingredients and / cun
OF water. cook slowly about 1 hour
and as the water evaporates. add
more to keep it from burning. IN
TIL rice is tender. Serve at once.

Honey And Nut
Bran Mullins

Every housewife has the desire
to be good to her family and with
this thought in mind they seek
around for nice little things to
cook for dinner. Things that arn't
a regular part of the meal like the
meat and vegetables but something
that will be a treat In themselves
like these mullins:
HONEY AND NUT BRAN
MUFFINS
u cup honey
l cup flour
Y to " teaspoon soda
2 cups bran
l tablespoon melted butter
! " cups milk
y cup walnuts, chopped fine
Sift together the flour, soda and

An Added Treat

At one time, pie was served only
for luncheon-at least so the books
on etiquette stated-but we're glad
to say that now pie is served at
all meals, even at breakfast in GER
tain parts Of the country. It's a
mans dish in spite of it's delicate
ness. Here is just one of the hun
dreds of recipes:
BUTTERSCOTCH PIE
liz cups water
liz cups brown sugar
II teaspoon salt
Ia tablespoon butter
3 tablespoons cornstarch
2 tablespoons flour
2 egg yolks
l teaspoon vanilla
Add water to brown sugar and
bring to the boiling point in a

starch, flour, salt and 2 table
spoons of sugar, add enough cold
water and make a smooth paste.
Add to the first mixture, bring to
the boiling point. and then cook
over boiling water for Is minutes
or until it thickens. Beat egg yolks
slightly, add cooked mixture and

THE day of the handsome
4 hero with soulful eyes and
long lashes is definitely over &C.
cording to theater managers
throughout the country. Will
liam Powell, Clark Gable, Paul
Mum and Spencer Tracy are
the current idols of audiences
everywhere, and the most up
and coming young actor is
James Stewart.
Certainly if the Metro-Goldwyn-
Mayer story department continues
to do as well by young Stewart as
they have in ''Navy Blue and Gold"
he will soar to the very crest of the
wave of success. Lanky and home
ly, Jimmy Stewart has naturalness
and shy sincerity that endear him.
Almost every company has had a
try at making picture about mid
shipmen at Annapolis, and all OF
them have been pretty stirring with
their martial music, their Navy spir-
it, their campus romances. But Met
ro-Goldwyn-Mayer have taken all
the old ingredients and made them
seem fresh.

last picture under his contract with
