which nave taken a rdC1er SeVeIe
jump in price this week, due to
weather conditions. The first Bling
cherries are in, all ready to be
tucked into picnic baskets-and de-
liciously firm and meaty they are,
too.
AS the usual week end meal
schedule will be pretty we'll upset,
we're going to give you some odds
and ends" recipes, instead of a
regular menu. Two of them are
fine for either picnic or home supper
use: the other, a dessert, is one OF
those delectable and rather unuS-
ual dishes that Is so simply made
it will cause no trouble to the lady
of the house, even if guests drop in
Unexpectedly.
BY the way-juSt word before
turning to the business of the day.
We do hope that you have been
reading with real interest and at
tention the news accounts of the
National Nutrition Conference for
Defense, held here the first part
of the week. Many facts of intense
concern to the women who plan
and prepare their families meals
were brought to light and should
urge all of us on to closer study
and adoption of all the nutritional
program to make our husbands and
children the best nourished in the
world. 1t is appalling how many
people, with the money to buy the
right kind of foods, still are, from
nutritional standpoint, underfed.
1t is up to us, as the health builders
of our Nation, to see to it that we
bring intelligence to bear upon the
problem, and earnestly strive to
make our food dollars return true
value as they never have before.
