snack. In fact, that was the
tough part of the diet.
Along with dieting, Carol
exercised. She went in for the
rolling, kicking and stretching
varieties, and had massage twice
a week for good measure. And is
she streamlined!
She kept her bust the same,

Add Cheese to Shortcake

excitingly popular each Spring
Detroit evening times. (Detroit, Mich) 1921-1958, 1941-06-04
By IDA JEAN KAN

THIS IS the first time have
ever had a hand in reducing a
movie celebrity. Carol Bruce,
who sang her way to fame and
a Hollywood contract, has just
taken off 10 pounds with the
aid of the "Twenty-One Day
Diet" Since Carol did a 100 per
cent perfect job of streamlin-
ing her already lovely figure, II
would be hard TO say which OF
us is more pleased.
AS you may recall, told you
awhile back that this young
actress was planning TO slim
down for the movies. But, as
most of you know, il is so easy
TO make plans-and so hard TO
carry them out.
BY taking two and one-half
months TO lose the unnecessary
pounds, Carol says she dieted
so painlessly that she had no
trouble at all in sticking 10 her
program. Because Of her irreg-
ular hours, she eats only two
good meals a day and the ealeFie
distribution as planned in the
diet had to be slightly varied.
Reducing Menu
Il would sit down at the end
of the day and add up every
calorie," Carol says, "and then
when / found i had taken 100 or
so less than the allowance, /
would plan to have those the
next day 10 even things up
Here is about the way her
reducing menus went: For
breakfast, around noon. a large
glass of orange juice or grape
fruit juice. an egg, thin rye
toast, and clear coffee. At four
in the afternoon. a glass Of but
termiik or skim milk.
For dinner, at six. fruit juice
or fruit cup. a salad with very
light French dressing or mayon-
naise, two vegetables and lean
meat. Then just before going to
bed late at night. or sometimes
early in the morning, a glass OF
milk and an apple.

Carols mother is an excellent
pastry cook I tried some of
her scones-and like most slim
mers Carol had to cut down on
the sweets. 1t wasn't easy TO
turn down the cake or pie in

else have perfect control over
her emotional life, never let the
old nervous system go whizz-
bang to make other people jit-
terry.

Her interests should be vari-

outdoor life She will have inter-

Always Same
No, we don't need to worry
about new quirks in serving or
even preparing. II must be the
same Shortcake that mother,
yes, grandmother and great
grandmother made.
OF course, your mothers recipe
may have varied from the one
that my mother used. Some
folks think that the base should
be sponge cake. others plain bis
cult dough, and still others bis
cult dough with sugar added.
When one is in hurry it's
easy 10 make up the dough and
turn II into an s by 8 inch
creased cake pan. Al the end Of
the baking time take from the
oven. cut in squares and split.

CATH cut MI ldNNs
Time Saver
If half OF the mixture is put
into the baking pan, and melted
butter is brushed over the sur
face before adding the other
half. cutting will not be neces-
saTy.
For individual shortcakes. roll
the dough less than half an inch
thick: cut with a cutter about
2i2 inches in diameter. Cut or
break in half when baked. spread
generously with butter and pile
sliced or crushed sweetened
strawberries in between layers
and on top.
Serve with thick cream or
slightly sweetened ippe d
cream. Here's our favorite old
time shortcake recipe.
Strawberry Shorteske
Two cups -four, y teaspoon
salt, 4 teaspoons baking powder,
Ia tablespoons sugar. "a cup
shortening. l well-beaten egg,
u cup milk.
Sift dry ingredients; cut in
shortening until like coarse
crumbs. Add combined egg and
milk. stirring just until blended.
Turn out on slightly Toured sur
face and knead lightly. Pat out
into S-inch square baking pan,
or cut with cookie cutter and
arrange on baking sheet. Bake
in hot oven (425 degrees) for 20
minutes. Serves 6.
Top with l quart Of straw
berries mashed with Il cup
sugar. Save a few large berries
for garnish. Plain or whipped
cream may be mixed with them
II desired.
New Tricks
II your are looking for new
shortcake tricks, try making the
DlSCullS Will DuAitl lOA NHNAo
flavor. Brush the tops with this
same fat just before they go
into the oven.
Or try adding a half cup of
grated cheese 10 the flour for
the biscuits. Cheese and fruit
are good together.
For a honey sweet biscuit, add
a tablespoon of honey for each
cup of flour used. Mix with milk
before adding il TO the -four.
Honey and strawberries, are an
ambrosial combination, say those
who like the sweet.
Instead Of plain or whipped
cream try a generous spoonful
Of vanilla ice cream over the
strawberries and piping hot bis
cults. This is a strawberry sun
dae shortcake.

 Established in 1915, the. institu- tion is a fifty -eight bed hospital. It has tuberculosis ward, which was established in 1880. and con- tains thirty beds. These thirty beds are the only beds the Territory set aside for tuberculosis The hos pital is modernly equipped, with an up-to date surgery, x-ray room and dental office and laboratory. The institution also boasts the only iso- lated maternity unit in the Terri tory.
