Pleasing The Man
His Breakfast Cakes
BY CHLOE JAMESON

There's almost as much difference between hot cakes of various types as there is between the oven cakes of a more important order. But home cooks rarely think of this. Hot cakes for breakfast" usually means repetition of the same re- cipe that has been in use in the family since the household first be- gan.
 Since there is not a breakfast dish in the nation so generally be- loved by men as is this simple grid- dle cake, wheat cake, pancake .. . or whatever we wish to call it /. :. let us add to our knowledge about it and please the man by offering him the old favorite in new or different form. Here are some of the variations best adapted to breakfast of a winter morn:
 Crumb Pancakes
 Soak thick slice of bread in two cups sour milk overnight. Put through a sieve in the morning, add beaten yolks of two eggs and one and a half tablespoons melted but ter, one scant teaspoon soda and salt to taste. Add sufficient corn meal (mixed with one tablespoon graham four) to make of the thick ness desired; fold in the stiffly beaten whites of the two eggs, bake on a hot griddle, butter as they

Cream soups take the center of the stage in autumn menus. Nour- ishing, warming and satisfying, they make an ideal mainstay for lunch con or suppertime meals.
 Potato Onion soup is new cream soup that's sure to take its place among the "soup menu" favorites. Temptingly fiavorful, nutritious and easy to make, it's just the sort of soup to serve for that after the game" or Sunday night supper party. Cheese biscuits, piping hot and golden brown, and crisp green salad are a perfect accompaniment for Potato-O Onion soup.

I This year the flavor and quality of peas is especially good because the growing and ripening conditions were ideal and the crop was harvested and packed at the height of it's excellence. The fact that better peas may be ob. tained this year for less money, should be of interest to homcmakers who must keep a watchful eye on the family budget.
 It will pay you to include peas in your next lunch or dinner menu and if you want to put a real party dress on your vegetables, try preparing them in the form of cups and fill them with buttered or creamed peas. These bright, full bodied canned peas make delight- full center of interest not only to the eye, but to the appetite. as well.
 You had better mind your "peas and choose one of the vegetable cups listed below.
 Onion Cup, with Peas: Banch large sweet spanish onions. dip in cold water. then slip oil the outer layer of skin. Parboil in salted water until almost tender, Remove the centers of the onions and fill space with canned peas, top with Lit of butter, place in baking dish and bake at 35O' until onions are tender.

 Boked Tomofe Cups with Psos: Wash and re. move the centcrs from well formed medium sized tomatoes. Fill the tomatoes with canned peas, dot with butter and season. Bake in moderate oven until tomatoes are tender. Serve hot.
 Shredded cenoi Cups with Psos; Shred raw carrots and pack into well buttered muihn uns. line the bottom and sides well. but allow the center to remain empty. forming 2 cup effect. Beat l or eggs well and pour by spooniIhls ,hs sides and bottom of each cup. This. when baked will hold the carrots in place, Allow not more than or 4 teaspoons of the beaten egg to each carrot cup. Fill center with peas, sea- son to taste, dot with butter and bake in moderate oven until carrots are tender.

Tn spite of the rather limited number of recipes homemakers follow in prepar- ing canned peas, this is one vegetable which has enjoyed increased popularity year after year Perhaps onetexplana- tion for their rise to leading position in the vegetable kingdom is that up until the time commercial eanners were able to can this vegetable on large scale, peas were regarded by most people as luxury food and were con- sidered treat to be enjoyed only dur ing comparatively short season of the year.
 Although the canning of peas was first attempted on commercial scale just before the Civil War, it's greatest growth has come within the past ten or fifteen years. The rapid strides that the canning industry has made, now makes it possible to bring young tender peas within the reach of every purse.
 In nutritive value, peas are worthy of special distinction. They are high in protein; a characteristic of few foods excepting meats, and their protein con tent is matched by a proportionate QudHIlbJ Ol dho ouSdi' ISy e1'S also rich in vitamin A, the special characteristic of green vegetables, as well as valuable source of vitamins F and c, and important minerals -cal- cium, iron and phosphorus.
 Since there are peas to suit every taste and use in cooking, and m buying, it is necessary to consider what the family prefers. If the peas are to be served as vegetable. in salad or used for garnishing, the very tender ones are most popular, and whether they are large or small depends upon individual preference.
 The average size peas are fine for use in casserole dishes and stews or when creamed. The more mature peas lend themselves especially well to soups and purees, and for making souffies and timbales.

Milk Helps Everyone
 And Does It Cheaply
Liberal Supply First Safeguard of Good Health at
 Childhood and Adult Life

Milk as a food growth has nc equal. Plenty of milk not only means sufficient minerals to helr growing strong white teeth but also provides essentials for building strong muscles and bones that are the very foundation on which healthy body depends. The food VOL eat is directly related to growth In animal feeding experiments the better diet with milk always pro- duces a superior animal. The well fed animal has 1ustrous, beautiful hair. he is stronger and has more stamina than one that is poorly fed.
 Milk has a true, rich flavor, Flavor is important in your daily meals for it stimulates the appe- lite and makes each meal an en- iovable event. wholesome foods made with milk can be easily pre- pared. Milk will give you in a most desirable, palatable form, the es- sential elements that are necessary to your continued well being. It is an established fact that children thrive best when they have three to four cups of milk in their daily diet. Adults should have at least a pint of milk daily. Health must be safeguarded and the surest, most pleasant most economical method of protection is to include milk to- gether with other protective" foods vegetables, fruits and eggs-in the diet regularly.

Milk is economical in the true sense of the word because it does more for you and does it more cheaply. An economical food is one which gives your moneys worth in dietary essentials. From this point of view milk is your best buy. Milk is necessary in the daily diet of both children and adults because 1t not only supports growth but repairs body tissues, builds up the resist ance of the body, supplies fuel and helps keep you young and vigorous. A regular and liberal supply of milk is the first safeguard of good health at all ages of childhood and at all periods of adult life.
 Those peoples who have made dairy products the basis of their diets have produced races superior in physique and accomplishments Vigorous health and vitality come largely from the selection of proper food. The less money available for food, the greater should be the re- liance on the materials which milk contains because milk more than any other food fills in the defects of poor die.
 You buy protection in milk. Milk must be included in all diets if the natural defenses of the body are to be fully maintained. Authorities agree that when the income is be- low the comfort level, it is neces- sary to raise the proportion of money set aside for milk, if nu- tritional needs are to be met. Too little milk means a deficiency in food essentials, resulting in lowered vitality. Milk is protective" food because it makes good the defi- ciencies of the average American diet.

tender. Drain and mash. Save po- tato water. There will be about 2 1-2 cups water and 1-2 cups mashed potatoes. Melt butter. Add onion Cover and cook slowly until onions are tender, about 10 minutes. Add flour blend well. Add hot potato water, salt and pepper pod. Boil 3 minutes, stirring occasionally. Add more salt if necessary. Yield: 6 servings.
 Potato Onion Soup is full-bodied and wholesome, for it is made with a whole tall can of irradiated evapo- rated milk-nearly the equivalent of quart of whole milk plus extra sunshine vitamin D. This double rich milk not only adds considerable food value but provides all the at tributes necessary to good cream soups-richness of flavor, smooth creaminess and perfect consistency.

HEALTHY KIDDIES
 GOAL OF PARENTS
F ood Among Important Considerations in Chil=
 dren's Development

It is becoming increasingly clear that every American parent is vital ly interested in the health of his children. The accumulation of re- search information on child health has all come forward. to meet this interest on the part of the parent.
 The question, what is healthy child, has recently been described in the "5 point child"-one who is up to weight, has good posture, good teeth, rosy cheeks and bright eyes. This summary of the healthy child has come from Dr. Mary Swartz Rose, a person well qualified to speak on the subject.
 Food is among the many impor- tant considerations in the develop ment of the healthy child. Let us quote, Food is probably the most important of all the factors which influence health and growth. Rest and sleep, exercise, fresh air, sun shine and other conditions are all necessary to help the body make the best use of food, but it is the food itself which furnishes the ma terials for actual body building and energy. A fine strong body cannot be built from poor or inadequate foods any more than durable building can be made from inferior material" (Healthy Children, Ma tional Congress of Parents and Teachers).
 To discuss the proper food for the continuous development of the healthy child is relatively simple. The child requires food for bone and blood and muscle building, to build up resistance against disease, to supply energy for work and play, and numerous other processes. The health level of the child varies to a large extent according to the food he eats.
 It is indeed fortunate that milk, fruits, vegetables and eggs, are ca- pablo of meeting these requirements to a much greater extent than any other combination of common foods. For this reason they are called pro- tectiye foods. AS for quantities, they are: One quart of milk daily; two servings of vegetables, one leafy green or one raw if possible, daily; two servings of fruit, one citrous fruit or raw daily; and one egg daily.
 Combined with at least one serv- ing of some whole grain cereal or bread daily, the protective foods supply good diet. A serving of properly cooked meat, fish or cheese not oftener than once a day, and the wise use of sweet in simple desserts is recommended.

A Pretty And. Most Unusual
 Winter Desert

When ideas for desserts are run ming low, and you want 8 suggestion that will take little time and be inexpensive, remember that peach Enowballs will make one of the prettiest and most appropriate win- ter desserts.
 Peach Snow Balls
 Canned peaches of the fine, firm quality that is found in the better grades of fruit, may be used instead of fresh peaches at this time of year. Drain them and let them stand in the refrigerator until well chilled. Then stuff the cavities with a mixture of equal parts of chop ped nuts, pineapple and bananas, bound together with little heavy cream, if that is needed to make the filling hold together.
 After the filling is in, pack two halves together and pin with a toothpick, if pinning is necessary, to make ball. Rub the surface as dry as possible and dip in a thick frosting made of cream and pul- verized sugar. Drop on waxed paper placed in a flat dish or platter and allow the balls to stand until the frosting is set. Serve on glass plates, in nest of moist packed shredded cocoanut piled around the balls to resemble snow drift.
 While we are on the subject of snow balls, there is a very different recipe you may like to have "a steamed recipe instead of a cold one.
 Steamed Snow Balls
 With Marshmallow Sauce
 Cream 1-2 cup butter, gradually add level cup sugar; sift together 1-4 cups four, 3 teaspoons baking powder and 1-8 teaspoon salt. Add to the first mixture, alternately with 1-2 cup milk. Flavor to taste with orange. Beat 4 egg whites to a stiff froth and fold into the cake mixture. Fill buttered cups or muf- fin balls two-thirds full and steam S5 minutes. Serve hot with marsh mallow sauce.
 Sauce Receipe
 Soften 20 marshmallows in a moderate oven, but do not brown them. Boil 1 cup sugar and 1-2 cup water until syrup spins a thread; add marshmallows and beat well until perfectly smooth. Flavor to taste with sherry wine or fruit juice; beat until well blended and serve hot over the snowballs.
