Juicy Pies

IF YOU have difficulty with
fruit pies boiling over IN the
oven, try this: Place pastry in
pan as usual and fill with fruit.
Then cut the top crust. cutting
il about half-inch smaller all
around than the pie pan. Place
on the pie and bake as usual
The half-inch opening all around
the edge prevents juices from
boiling over.

Never Restless

Inwardly, they are almost as
elemental as fishworrn. They
have only a few simple urges
all based on self-preservation
Hence their unfailing prudence
and propriety
Not being inquisitive. they are
never restless or reckless E.
nor given TO sour introspection.
Don't he afraid OF them Pity
them, instead They're solid in
side, Better one second Of
quivering ecstasy or fury than
an eternity OF their torpid COM
placency.

War Fashions

By JOAN DEAN

WHAT WILL the war do 10
women's fashions? The ques-
ton is heard on all sides and
speculation and rumors are all
about us.
To the women OF Detroit we
say that certainly the war will
affect our buying habits and
some Of the materials 10 which
we have become accustomed
will no longer be available.
But let us have faith in DIR
American manufacturers and
know that for every material
taken from the market there
will be something 10 replace IT.
DO NOT be a armed by
stories Of no more OF this and
no more of that Remember a
short while ago when we were
concerned over the So-called
shortage Of silk hose.
Almost before the echoes of
the stories had died away there
were reasSuTanceS from the
manufacturers that the problem
would he solved and II was
solved.
1T Is true there Will be re-
adjustments but we will all
make them. Suddenly they Will
be the style and we will accept
them, All women are practical

country there will be apparel
that is attractive without being
extravagant.
With the conservation Of ma

can slip into in the morning and

The buttonholeS IN the skirt

The box-plaid stitching on the

SCHOOL LUNCHES
Dear Almanack:

OSeN@
1t seems to me that some Of
the very simplest recipes you
print are the most practical and
the results most satisfactory. So
instead Of sending an elaborate
concoction. I'm going to tell you
a few things I remember that !
liked best as q child.
took lunch to school in a
covered tin bucket There were
always biscuits for breakfast, so
we children had cold biscuits In
our lunches, and that was the
only bread we had. But a fried
ham and biscuit sandwich-eaten
with a hard-boiled egg-tastes
mighty good. And for dessert
guess what? When Mamma pre-
pared our lunches we always
knew we'd have some "holeys."
She would stick her finger into a
biscuit to make hole. then pour
some sorghum molasses into the
hole. The biscuit would absorb
that delectable gooey stuff, and
there wouldn't be a crumb left,
Sweet Potato Pie
Another thing was sweet po-
tato pie Here was Mammals.
Boil 2 or sweet potatoes I'M
til tender-peel or skin them
and mash with a fork until
smooth. For every cup-and-a-
half of mashed potato, add 2
beaten eggs. l cup milk. gener-
Gus q cup butter Tor substitute).
= cup sugar. y teaspoon salt.
teaspoon nutmeg Have unbaked
pie crust ready in deep pie pan
Pour in custard and bake 10 min
utes in a hot oven. $50 degrees.
and then lower temperature to
about 800 degrees and cook half
an hour longer. Mamma man.
aged the temperature on a wood
stove by the kind and quantity
of fuel, and by proper regulation
of the damper.
That Georgia woman who told
you about country pies made
with canned muscadine hulls al
most made me ween-T'd FORGOT
ten there were such good things.
There's a flavor about Musca-
dimes that can't be equalled by
anything but scuppernongs.
