By FRANCES PECK

Many doctors recommend now that you begin serving the baby just small portion of Strained Foods diluted with liquid. Up to this time, you see, the baby has had nothing but liquid foods so the change to semi-solids and solids must come gradually. You will start with a teaspoonful of carrots, perhaps, combined with an equal amount of water or the baby's milk formula. It is well to feed this mixture with a spoon. After a day or so, double the amount of Strain ed Food, retaining the first propor- tion of water used. By the third or fourth day, you might try giving the baby straight vegetables with out adding any liquid at all.
 If the baby seems to object to the texture of this solid food, go back to adding small amount of liquid and decrease more slowly. FroE this time on, you will grad ually be able to increase the amount of Strained Foods used at each feeding until the baby is taking a full 4h-ounce tin by the time he is 10-12 months old.
 Since baby's taste is not highly developed, there is no need to work a variety of Strained Foods into a days serving. It will be quite enough if you feed the baby carrots for two days or so until the can is finished and then work into spinach or tomatoes or whatever o h e r variety is next on the doctors list. That way you will be able to in- clude all the Strained Foods in the baby's meal plans over a peroid of two or more weeks, insuring your baby of nutritionally sound diet.
 Of course, the variety of products and the quantities in which they are used will vary according to each infant and can best be determined only by the physician who has known your child from birth.

Coffee Mousse Superb

The tantalizing aroma and rich full flavor of good coffee is ell nigh irresistible! Many 8 home maker knows from experience tha. it's tempting fragrance is better than all the cabling words in the dictionary to hasten members of the family to the table at mealtime. But ho wmany think to use this popu- lar beverage as flavoring for icings butter frostings, candles, desserts? That's culinary trick to keep n mind, for there's usually a few tablespoons of coffee left in the pot! Here's recipe for a frozen dessert that captures all the taste- lure of a steaming cup of coffee If you don't have leftover coffee better brew an extra cup and try this Coffee Mousse you will like l..'s mellow-rich flavor?

these points observed in the matter of grinding, strong, making and utilizing leftover coffee will make the most of your supply.
 See that the coffee you buy is correctly ground for the method of brewing you desire to follow. A fairly coarse grind is usually best for coffee made by the fashioned boiled process-which few women use nowadays; medium-ground or steel-cut coffee gives the best re- results for percolation; fine-ground coffee is used for many drip-pots and tripolators, while those which specify the use of filter paper or a muslin bag call for pulverized coffee
 Freshness, of course, is the secret of good coffee. Make it from freshly roasted freshly ground beans us- ing freshly boiled water and a scru- pulously clean coffee pot, serve it fresh. and you cannot help hav- ing a most delicious fragrant bev- craze.
 Use enough coffee to develop the Srength you like best. Usually one full tablespoon is allowed for each cup of water, with an extra spoon full for the pot.
 The temperature has much to do with the way coffee tastes. If made just below the boiling point the natural aroma and flavor are preserved, color is clearer and more brilliant, and the coffee most di- gestible. Here's is how it's done by the drip method as well as with an ordinary coffee pot. Bring water to full boil, let stand a minute or so off the stove before adding coffee to it or it to coffee. Keep hot un- til served, but do not let it boil For iced coffee, be sure to make

One OF the gravest problems con-

has to do with the difficulty Of secur-

There are, for instance, many pupils
whose reading levels are not above
those Of children in the third. fourth.
NTH and sixth grades. They can
neither read nor understand after they
have read the text books used by their
classmates. These casualties NAV in
part be due to the overemphasis upon
silent reading when they were being
taught to read. to poor sight or to
poor health. Individual corrective ef-
