Midsummer Breakfasts
BY JOSEPH BOGGIA
A VVSA71 IF Chef de Cuisine-HOtel Plaza)

(C0eI 0e Cu1Slne-dOtcA RldzaJ
 When heal has robbed the body of its usual dash and go, cool, en- joyable breakfast helps in pleasant little ways that last throughout the day.
 Summer breakfast menus are fair ly limited; that is true. But here are few variations that can be made without trouble or expense:
 Instead of plain chilled fruit, try surrounding a mound of blueberries, dewberries or sliced peaches with cubes of fresh pineaple sherbet made in the ice tray. This will do away with the need for rich cream and sugar, and be grateful varia-- tion, indeed. Do not freeze the sher- bet cubes too hard for this purpose; just enough to hold their form.
 As a change from plain orange or grapefruit juice, serve the trapped juice (not frozen sold) piled in chilled orange hrlls with sprig of mint on top. Purple grape juice trapped (not frozen solid) is tasty and refreshing :. and beautiful to see when served in grapefruit shells.
 Follow now with whatever hot dish you have planned for this meal as light and piquant 8 Selec- ton as possible. If you are having eggs and want the zest of bacon without its fatty, heating qualities .. sprinkle over light creamy scrambled eggs some of that deli- cious bacon favored condiment which is made from hickory smoked brewers yeast. It is a vitamin prod uct, containing no meat or fat; yet the curing of it has produced a very excellent bacon flavor which can be used in seasoning almost any dish that calls for bacon.
 Now change the usual way of serving toast; make 8 crib of thin buttered toast cut into narrow strips placed cabin fashion, one on the other. Pile the scrambled eggs light ly into the crib, dust literally with the bacon favored condiment, gar- nish with a sprig of parsley. There is something about these thin crunchy toast strips nibbled

Summer Treats For Traveling

Inexperienced tourists or even those who seldom picnic" quite of ten have drinking water trouble" !" They drink from springs that may or may not be tested. They camp near pure water with an unusual mineral content that does not please. They find it hard to locate water cool enough.
 Now that large picnic thermos containers are so inexpensive, why not carry your own beverage iced as you want it? Do not limit yourself to water, but take a lemonade or fruit punch along. The children will prefer it to pops" and other soft drinks-and the alkaline reaction of fruit juices will go long way toward balancing the acid-reaction foods usually carried in the lunch basket. Here are some samples of delightful summer beverages. You'll find 1t easy to adopt these recipes to your thermos jug by reducing the quantity of water on account of the melting ice.
 Sugar Sirup
 4 cups sugar
 4 cups water
 Boil sugar and water together for five minutes. Pour into clean hot jars and seal. This sirup may be kept on hand and used as needed.
 Lemonade
 6 lemons
 cups water
 cup sugar
 Sirup (more or less according
 to taSte)
 Squeeze the juice from the fruit, Mix well with the sirup and water.

Nothing makes day look quite so exciting right from the begin ming as breakfast on the terrace. The tomato juice tastes like the advertising says it will. the same old bacon and eggs acquire new meaning, and pungent ice-cold cof- fee (for q change) is fitting ac- compartment to hot brown toaGt and orange marmalade. The effects of this early-morning indulgence in breakfast luxury will follow you right through the day.
 Luxury-that is--if you go about the preparations correctly.
