be introduced to the child by using it as sandwich filling. A little minced or chopped raw vegetable, such as carrot or lettuce or chop ped raw apple are acceptable.
 When the child has learned to chew his food very thoroughly wider selection of raw vegetables and fruits can be allowed. If the child is eating at the table with the rest of the family, let the grown ups have similar foods.
 Wash raw vegetables and fruits thoroughly before using; be sure they are served crisp. Use apple wedges, carrot or turnip strips, celery and tomato wedges as gar nishes.
 Combinations for Salads Shredded cabbage, grated carrots Shredded cabbage, diced pineapple Shredded cabbage, diced tomato Diced apple, grated carrots, chopped raisins
 Diced apple, chopped dates Orange sections, diced pears Diced pineapple, cottage cheese Shredded lettuce, diced tomato
 Children may have small amounts of salad dressing; but it should be made with egg, milk or fruit juices, and be mildly seasoned, and not rich in salad oil. Make the following recipe for the child.
 Cooked Salad Dressing egg
 3-4 cup milk
 3 tablespoons flour
 l 1-2 tablespoons sugar
 1 teaspoon salt
 IA teaspoon mustard
 2 tablespoons butter
 3 tablespoons lemon juice
 Beat the egg slightly; add the milk. Mix the flour, sugar, salt and mustard in the top of a double boiler; add the milk mixture gradu- ally. Cook over hot water, stirring until the mixture thickens (about 10 minutes). Add the butter and lemond juice to taste. Cool.

The protective foods which form Ehe basis of the sound diet include milk, fruits, vegetables and eggs. Each of these foods make outstand- ing contributions to the best health and well-being of both adults and children. Training the child to drink his full quart of milk daily and to enjoy vegetables and fruits, is of the utmost importance. Early training will be available in later life when the full quota of protec- tive foods (milk, fruits, vegetables and eggs) are equally important.
 In the first year of life, the baby becomes acquainted with a limited group of vegetables and fruits, cooked and strained for his needs, and during the second year the sieved or mashed vegetables under go little change. By the third year the child should gradually be wid- ening his sphere of interest to in- clude raw vegetables and fruits as well as cooked ones. A very small amount of raw vegetables may first

 This need be nothing more than cup of hot milk or milk soup, with a slice of bread and butter spread with jelly or jam, or a light sprinkling of sugar. Either plan is well balanced an1 will give the warmth required for stimula- tion, while the sugar supplies the quick energy needed to restore the child to normal.
 See, too, that damp stockings and clothing are pulled off at once and warm, dry ones whisked on again. Roasting" before the fire or steam radiator will not do. The exchange of clothing should be made without delay.

If your family is fond if fried mush, try cooking the corn meal in soup stock or vegetable juice left over from the preparation Of fresh vegetables for other meals. Season the stock well with onion and celery salt and if you have a little leftover meat. put it through the grinder and add it also to the stock. When boiling briskly, add sufficient corn meal to make q stiff mush; pour into buttered dishes to cool and when ready to fry it, slice in quarter inch slices.

Sunday Supper Special
CHICKEN AND WAFFLES
 CHICKEN PART

A young chicken is opened down the back and cleaned. Then lay it flat in a baking dish, skin side down, and into each of the hollows put two tablespoons of butter, half tea spoon of lemon juice and quarter teaspoon salt. Pour two cups of water in the pan and place in oven at moderate heat. After half an hour turn the chicken over, dust with flour and replace in oven. Baste several times with liquid in pan, after chicken has Drowned. Cook until tender.
 When the chicken is done remove it and thicken the liquid in the pan with three tablespoons of flour mixed with a little cold milk. Cook on top unit of range until gravy is thsckened-season with more salt if necessary and strain into bowl. Use the gravy to pour over the waf- fles.
 WAFFLE PART
 2 cups flour.
 { teaspoons baking powder.
 1 teapSoon salt
 . eggs
 1-2 cup butter
 About l 1-2 cups milk
 Mix and sift the dry ingredients. Separate the eggs, adding the yolks to the milk. Break the yolks in the milk and add to dry ingredients, mixing well. Add the butter, melted, and fold in the egg whites beaten stiff. The batter should be thin enough to pour easily, so add more milk if necessary, but do not have it "runny."
 The amount of butter used pretty well determines the quality of the waffle. The. above proportions give excellent results. For an even more delicate product use three-quarters cup of butter. For a sturdier waf- fe, use less than half cup of butter.
 It is meant to bake the waffles at the table on an electric waffle iron. For 8 supper dessert serve waffles with syrup, or ice cream or fudge sauce.

 Comment

Who has sunny kitchen win- dow that is not doing its part to provide parsley, chive, fresh mint and other greens for the culinary department? All these plants can be raised in pots or boxes which if as decorative as those you pro- vide for flowers, will make a pret- ty picture in their window frame. Chives and mint cant be bought as growing plants in the open mar ket. Parsley may be raised from seed. And why not try raising a little window crop of onion shoots to flavor an occasional salad or a dish of fresh cottage cheese?
 Instead of the everlasting crack CT. why not serve tiny, crisp, pret- gels with the soup or salad course? They've an ininlitable flavor and are as good with these two sections of the menu as they are with cock tails.

Spice Up
 Your Meals With Curry

 Curried Eggs in Fried Rice Ring is a colorful, appetizing ad at tractice main dish. The use of Fried Rice is an unusual innovation and adds a pleasing new flavor. If you do not have ring mold, the rice may be molded in cups for indi- vidual serving and used as border. Asparagus is splendid accom- paniment for this curried dish = and makes it truly one-dish meal.
 Curried Eggs in Fried Rice Ring
 Turn hot Fried Rice Ring out on hot platter. Fill center with Cur ried Eggs. Arrange 2 cups hot cooked asparagus, or a No. 2 can green asparagus, around the rice ring. Yield: servings.
