particularly when the country is on edge, that Winston Churchill ex- cels.
 The effect Is always dramatic. He steps to the rostrum, slowly glances at his notes with the grin of a Disraeli or Gladstone, and then goes into action. He starts slowly, and because of this slowness his lisp and inability to easily pronounce the let ter s becomes apparent.
 But as he warns to the job, oc- casionally hesitating as if searching for the right word, his speech moves with greater speed. At the high point he is delighting everyone with his not subtle but very biting humor and his grand refusal to pronounce foreign words and names in any, thing but ordinary English: Like "Naazi". for "Nazi" with the accent

was to call him up every two hours for 36 hours until the London Exs press tycoon gave in.
 The Scotland Yard man who has been with Churchill nearly twenty years, says that when the Prime Minister goes to Dover or to some other area to inspect defenses, he misses nothing. Like some hawk eyed American chain store super visor followed by an uneasy store manager, Churchill always spots what a Commanding Ofiicer might prefer to have overlooked until the next visit.
 At Downing Street. there is no such thing as a highly routined day for Winston Churchill. Neville Chamberlain, for. example, was en- tirely run by his secretariat. They put a time table on his desk in the morning and he kept faithfully to 1t, minute by minute through the day. Eleven minutes for an inter. view, nine minutes at the Admiralty, six minutes to dictate @ reply to some minister.
 But not Churchill. He would just as soon cancel cabinet meeting as bat an eye. And the morning after any great blitz, he and his much pubilcized chimney pot hat are seen moving through the area and keep ing lot of people waiting in Down. ing Street. } MASTER OF THE
 BARRED PHRASE
 In the House of Commons, Win. ston Churchill is usually at his best. He is the ablest orator in Parlia- ment, even If he does commit his speeches to heart and practice them before @ mirror. He is sharpest in unrehearsed debate-a master of the barbed phrase and the pungent re- tort.
 This came to him naturally from his youngest days. In school, one of his teachers angrily threw some papers on the floor, raging:
 "What can one do with boys who know absolutely nothing?"
 Up piped Winston's treble: "Teach us, sir"
 It was the same dashing impu- dence that led him to say of Ram- say Macdonald, when Mcdonald was Premier: "He has the gift of compresing the largest amount of words into the smallest amount of thought"
 When Stanley, Baldwin was premier, Churchill said of him, he had the habit of occasionally stumbling over the truth and then picking himself up and going on again as if nothing had happened"
 He called Prime Minister Cham. berlain "the undertaken from Birrn- ingham."

 It is illustrative of the nature of the man that while his greatest speeches are genuine clarion calls to his brave compatriots, he has also an eye on posterity and the great niche he will occupy in history. It was in June, 1940, shortly after he had fulfilled his lifelong ambition of becoming England's Prime Min- ister, that he said:
 "Let us, therefore, brace ourselves to our duty and so bear ourselves that, if the British commonwealth and empire last for 1000 years, men will still say: This was their finest hour"

A good question for a quiz pro-
word broccoli Today the Italian
spelling is preferred, although in an
old English cookbook, dated 1743,
you may take your choice of two
spellings, neither of which would be
accepted now There is a recipe for
"Brockely and Eggs" and "Brockely
Salad" In the index. however, we
find "Brockela" used.
Most of us think OF broccoli as
being . new development among
vegetables. although 1t was used sew
eral hundred years ago and then
for some unknown reason disap-
peared from our markets, except in
the form Of green's which could be
found at certain seasons Of the year
at the markets in our foreign sec
tions.
California Is responsible for. It's
return to market in the form we get
now. Other States cultivate 1t also
and at the moment both California
and Pennsylvania are providing our
supply. You will find high-ouality

IKE asparagus. Just set the head
on end In the bottom of q double
boiler with about 2 inches Of water
and use the inverted upper part OF
the double boiler as q cover. Like
other vegetables. broccoli should not
be over cooked.
The sauce for this vegetable is
particularly important. You may
choose Drowned crumbs with plenty
OF butter. . cheese sauce, a Hol-
landaise sauce or just plain butter.
BOILED BROCCOLI.
Remove large leaves and tough
portions OF stems, wash and soak in

High teas went out about the
same time that the words living
room and den replaced parlor and
sitting room. Instead of the high
tea, today we have the buffet supper
The foods We serve are not unlike
those which were spread so bounti-
fully upon the high tea table.
The greatest difference is in the
fact that no formal places are ar
ranged at the table. We help our
selves, but take our plates to the
living room and look hopefully for
small tables upon which they can
be balanced. Nests of tables are
most convenient when you like to
entertain buffet style.
Several letters from readers have
been received this week asking for
suggestions for menus which are to
be served buffet style. The first is
for a small Sunday evening supper
which Is to celebrate birthday. The
husband in the house has asked that
the hot dish be creamed chicken in
patty shells. Not all men are as
fond of this dish as he seems to be.
so We suggest that some sort of cold
meat. such as tongue or ham, be
offered also.
Many like hot biscuits better than
patty shells. The creamed chicken
may be placed in casserole
sprinkled with cheese and Drowned
lightly If YOU like If cooked spaghetti
is placed in the bottom of the
casserole, this dish becomes chicken
Tetrazzini. With a chicken dish of
this sort you will, of course. serve
bowl of mixed green salad. On the
table there may be jelly. mixed
pickles and relishes. Unless hot
biscuits are served, there should be
hot rolls or thin buttered slices of
bread, or instead hot, buttered bread.
For birthday suppers the cake will
be the most important part Of
dessert and may be served with or
without ice cream, as you like.

Fruits Recommended
For Inclusion in
Daily Diets

The recommendations of the Ma
tional Research Committee in re-
gard to the inclusion of fruits in the
daily diet are such that most of us
would find no hardship in following.
Practically every one likes fruit. Its
use is limited more by its price than
by anything else.
The most important contribution
of fruit is in the form of vitamin c.
Citrus fruits such as oranges. grape
fruit, lemons and tomatoes are par
ticularly high in this vitamin To-
lrlato juice Is often cheaper than
fresh citrus fruits. although the
contribution of vitamin C is only
half that of orange Juice, measured
by volume. Grapefruit juice and
pineapple juice are among the others
which offer vitamin C.
The majority of fruits supply some
amount of vitamin A and varying
amounts of the B complex. Another
important contribution made by
most fruits Is the alkaline mineral
content The natural fruit acids are
combined with the minerals and
form alkaline salts which help to
maintain the neutrality of the blood.
Although most fruits are alkaline,
when they are ready for absorption
the natural acids which are present
during digestion stimulate the pass
age of fruit through the intestinal
tract They are actually an aid to
digestion under normal circum-
stances. They are forbidden only
in cases of digestive disturbances
when an oversupply of hydrochloric
acid is secreted by the glands of the
stomach. This condition is known
as hyperacidity, although it is often
miscalled acidosis. The fiber present
in most fruits is also a mechanical
aid to digestion.

to produce more milk in this coun-
try but we could easily use what
we have more efficiently by not let
ting skim milk go to waste. Skim
milk contains all the important milk
solids except fat and vitamin A.
1t can be used for part or all of the
milk quota. But il skim milk re-
places whole, another source of fat
and vitamin A must be provided In
the diet
DRY skim milk can make foods
richer in nutritious milk solids
without increasing their volume. To
some extent, so can evaporated milk.
Diluted with water-4 cups water
to l cup dry skim milk-dry skim
milk has about the same food value
as an equal amount of fluid skim
milk. Evaporated milk, diluted with
water measure for measure, has
about the same food value as an
equal amount of fluid whole milk.
Cheese made from whole milk
contains most of the food values of
whole milk In a more concentrated
form. One-third of pound of
American cheese has about the same
food value as quart of whole milk"

It's wise to keep the cooky jar
full, especially now that the children
are back in school. When study
