 Some plain, substantial food serv- ed in old-fashioned Hog cabin style" with the whole meal set right on the table and everybody invited to reach and help yourself" f"-that is the way to observe Lincoln's Birth day inu the true pioneer fashion. It is a custom busy homemakers would do well to follow on February 18th, if they want to declare holi- day for themselves or enjoy enter taining a few guests lesiurely and informally.
 To carry out the pioneer idea in table decorations, serve the meal on the bare table, if it is a rough, wooden table, or on a coarse cloth, similar to the red checked variety of olden days. Pewter or old-faShioned candlesticks of some other type would lend another of interesting atmosphere. For a centerpiece, bowl of colorful gourds, or a dish of apples and pears such as might have been used during the winter in Lincoln's time, would be most appropriate.
 For the meal itself, almost any of the simple, nutritious dishes would ze in keeping with the day, for the appetites of the rail split ters were rarely fancy.
 By the way of suggestion the fol- lowing menu is offered:
 Baked Beans
 Vegetable Salad
 Brown Bread Butter
 Cornmeal and Apple Pudding
 Monroe Sauce

In large cities the custom of dining at ' o'clock is a very good one; we usually need that hour or so between
 5:30 and ' in order to unravel the tension the days hustle and noise have induced. In smaller centers life is more normal, but there is a greater tendency, I think, to neglect the pleasant little ceremony of dress ing for the evening meal. Psy- chologically this refurnishing does more to encourage bright eyes and lively wits than most of us realize.

But if you could see, as the Deau- tician sees, the havoc wrought by irritation, haste and tension while meals are being served, you would surely make an extra effort to pre- serve calm for this short hour, at least.
 Form the habit of having your orange juice before you come to the breakfast table, if it is possible to ar range it. Sip the fruit juice slowly and let it have it's chance to pave the way for breakfast, while you are dressing. Sip it between mo- tions, if need be-anything to avoid tossing it down in hurry and fol- lowing it at once with quick mouth fuls of other heavier food.
 If you find it hard to relax at noontime, a cup of hot soup will help the good work along provided you don't hurry this course and dash on with the next. See that the soup is hot-lukeWarm will not do. If you are eating with companion, try to avoid excited conversation at least until after you have disposed ot the warm, invigorating soup. Soon you'll find nerves relaxing, a delightful comfort stealing through the body. Time now for the salad or SandWlca, and conversation may begin. AL though it is much better for those who foresee a busy afternoon ahead to insist on relatively qiuet lunch con. with no arguments, business talks or serious discourses to use up returning energies.
 In the evening, lieNdoWn ana rest a few minutes before dinner, when ever it is possible. The luxury of warm bath, make up and change of costume cannot be over-estlmated.
The Waterbury Democrat., 1938-02-04

Simply because new potatoes are ] little bit higher now than the old ones is no reason why we should consider them luxury. Old potatoes are perhaps one-third the price of new ones at the moment but even so, old potatoes are often wasteful. After all the blem- ishes have been cut away what is left will average just. about the same in cost as if new potatoes had been used, for although they are small, new potatoes are good and for the most part sound and the entire potato can be used.
 Then, too, the proper Way-and the most tasty way-to prepare new potatoes is to peel them-not pare them. This one thing saves more than one realizes. Wash the new potatoes with care and boil them in the skins or jackets then peel them after they have been cooked, and you save a large part of the pota- to.
 New potatoes are at their best when boiled in this way, peeled and served with melted butter or pars- ley sauce They contain a large amount of water, and for this reason do not mash or bake well. They are delicious creamed, but even then, not quite so tasty as when served plain boiled with lots of melted butter poured over them.
 When selecting new potatoes, re- member these points: They should be firm to the touch and smooth Upon cutting, the color should be yellow-white with rather waxy ap- pearance. Always be sure the po- tatoes are ripe; unripe ones are very incigestible.
 Curried New Potatoes
 1 medium-Size potatoes
 tablespoons butter
 2 small onions, sliced
 l-2 tablespoon curry powder
 salt and pepper to taste
 z tomatoes
 tablespoon water
 "-4 cup water
 Doll the potatoes in the skins un- til tender. Peel and cut in quar- ters. Melt butter in frying pan and cook sliced onions in it until a gol- den brown. Add curry powder, salt, pepper, tomatoes which have been quartered, and the tablespoon wa ter. Let cook slowly until a thick paste is formed, then add the 3-4 cup water and bring to boiling point. and when a thin mixture, add the potatoes and let simmer for few minutes or until the sauce is me dirm thick. Serve very hot.

 Apples and grapes are boon com panions with the cheese and fit in perfectly with the "help yourself" program. An assortment of olives, pickles, radishes, celery and Der muda onions make an appetizing accompaniment.

were made up by the Special skills Divis-

samples only. After sending these samples
tc the manufa cturers, it found that
several pieces were Impractical to make
up. Tt would be wise, therefore, to in

Several women have been interested
in learning where they might purchase
lamps. curtains and rugs SINH lar to
those found in the display rooms. AS
yet it has been impossible to obtain
