lie Booker Washington's program
of education had been carried out

you think there would have been
any occasion for Dr. Carter Mood

in the days Of Booker Washington,
but who spent the major portion of
their time fighting him and his pro-

in helping him put over the reals

gave this country and the world, our

Beef For
.Pot-Roast

For the hearty meal which ap-
peals to the men at any time of the
year, you can make no better choice
than savory tender potroast. Serve
1T with noodles or dumplingS and
gravy If the day is a wee bit chilly:
If the day Is warm, serve it with cool
crisp cole slaw and you will have a
combination which will make q
hearty meal that will win compli-
ments galore.
For pot-roasts, beef chuck, rump,
or heel Of the round are ideal cuts
ito choose, for while they are
classed as less tender cuts, they can
be made very tender by the long
slow cooking given when prepared
IN this way, and they are chock
full Of exaractives which make them
taste so good. These cuts may be
boned and rolled, if you wish, for
ease in carving.
The method of cooking pot-roasts
is very simple indeed, and here is
the way, according to Inez s. Will
son, home economist.
Beef Pot Roast
4 pounds beck chuck, rump or
heel of round
Flour for dredging
Lard for browning
Salt and pepper
Dredge the pot-roast with flour,
season with salt and pepper, and
brown well on all sides in hot lard.
Add IL cup hot water, cover and
cook very slowly until done. If the
liquid cooks away, add more but
only a little at time. Allow about
three hours for cooking.
While this is the standard method

New Ideas
For Lamb

Do you become tired of preparing
foods In the same way day after
day, week after week, month after
month? So does every housewifel
Cooking is likely to become bore
some unless one experiments with
new foods apd new ways Of pre-
pairing them occasionally sunless
one goes adventuring now and then.
Lamb Is not q new food, In fact,
1t has been spring favorite for
many, many years, but no always
has It been available the whole
year round, as It Is today. Nor.
does every housewife realize the
number Of lamb cuts which she can
use to add interest to meal prepar-
alton and to make her meals more
enjoyed. So Inez 8. Wilson, home
economist, suggests some Of the
more unusual lamb cuts. Try these
and then 60 adventuring for more.
Lamb Pin-wheels
Have a lamb breast boned, then
spread with bulk sausage and roll,
after the fashion Of a jelly roll.
Fasten the roll with wooden skewers
and cut into the thick slices be-
tween the skewers. Lay in baking
dish and place uncovered in a mod
crate oven and cook for thirty to
forty minutes. Then pour cup
tomato Juice over all, cover and
cook slowly for half an hour longer,
or until the pin-wheels are tender.
Serve with the tomato sauce.
Lamb breast also may be rolled
as described above, but instead of
cutting into pin-wheels, 1t often Is
left as q roast and cooked In one
piece.
Stuffed Lamb Shoulder Chops
Have lamb shoulder chops cut
one to two inches thick. Remove
the bone and from the cavity made,
cut Sits so that pockets are formed.
FIJI these and the cavity made by
removing the bone with a savory
bread dressing. Lay bacon slices
over the top and bake chops In
moderate oven $3.50 F. until done
about one hour.
Spicy Lamb Chops
Marinate the lamb chops In
spicy French dressing for several
hours before cooking. Thoroughly

chops so that there Is a distance of
about three inches between the top
Of meat and the source Of heat.
Broil until the chops are Drowned
on one side, then turn and finish
the broiling on the second side. Sea-
son with salt and pepper and serve

QUESTION
From Mrs. A. r., Richmond Hill,
Long IslarS: could you publish a
recipe In your paper for curried rice
and Beans? My husband has esten
that somewhere and found 1t so
good he would like to have 1t at
home. I am not sure whether the
beans were plain baked beans or
kidney beans-my husband didn't
know-but If you can supply me
with a dish somewhat similar I
would be ever so much obliged"
ANSWER
Curry is increasing in popularity
as a seasoning In this country and
rightly so as 1t adds zest and inter-
est to any food. have the follow
ing recipe in my files for "Curried
Rice and Kidney Beans" which I
presume Is the one your husband
would like to have you prepare. At
least I would recommend that you
give 1t a try, for the combination
Is new and pleasing one. 1t may be
served very attractively too as the
curried mixture is easy to mold and,
holds its shape beautifully. AS you
will see, we recommend serving it
as ring mold of curried rice and
kidney beans with the center filled
with cheese sauce. However, If you
have no ring mold 1t can be served
(the curry In individual cups, used
as Q border on deep platter with
the sauce In the center.
Curried Rice and Kidney Beans
with Cheese Sauce: Boil rice to
make one cup when cooked. Wash
in sailed water, drain and rinse.
Drain a No. 2 can Of kidney beans
and cook Ia cup finely minced on
ion slowly in 2 tablespoons butter
for about 5 minutes. Add 2 tea
spoons curry powder, the drained
beans and rice and cook until hot.
Press into ring mold. Turn out on
hot platter and fill center with
cheese sauce, which has been pre-
pared by melting 1-2 ID. American
cheese GRATED in u cup evaporated
milk over boiling water. This makes
8 servings.
