Meet Ne in St. Louis
By Sally Benson. Random

By Sally Benson. Random
House,
This book follows The fashion set
some time ago of chronicling the
doings of an American family, early
Goth century model. AS such books
go, it merely reports what the men,
bers of the said family do, leaving
the changed fashions to supply the
humor. Sometimes, the changed
fashions meet the expectation.
Sometimes, they do not.
Miss Benson gives us the Smiths,
a prosperous middle-class tribe con-
sisting of parents. a large number
of daughters and son just getting
ready for Princeton. She takes these
people through the year which pre-
ceded the opening of the World s
Fair at ST. Louis in 1904. The older
girls talk about beaus, the kids get
into scrapes. everybody leases the
youngest child, who takes teasing
as a matter of course.
Pompadours. college pennants.
mandolins, Jan Kubelik-of such is
the setting. The book may be a
social document, If you look at it
that way. AS entertainment, it is
very mild. NC. r.

Biscuits Give Simple
Meal That Touch
OF Glamour

They are quick and easy to make
and what q touch they do add to
the simplest meal! It's biscuits we
are talking about; hot biscuits, Of
course. They are also known as bak-
ing powder biscuits, although you
will find housekeepers who demand
buttermilk and soda for leavening.
Biscuits vary in texture and flavor
almost as much as does apple pie.
pend largely upon your own home
experience. If you are cook-in-the-
making, your insurance for success
will be found in the use Of liberal
amount Of shortening. 1t will also
be Influenced by not being too lib
eral with liquid.
Experienced biscuit makers seem
to be able to ignore this latter fact
and to be able to add more flour to
a moist mixture. Amateurs have
less success, so it is well to make q
general rule to be stingy with the
liquid. This is true even when you
use a prepared biscuit mix which
calls only for the addition of liquid.
The, business woman housekeeper
finds a preparation of this sort par
ticularly useful.
When company drops In at the
last moment and you feel that you
need something a little extra, you
can do nothing better than stir up
. batch Of biscuits which will serve
for bread with the meal and which
may even take the place Of dessert

Poultry is one of the safest and

Manners
of the
Moment

Luncheon dates are something
about which women really should
be more meticulous. Too many
women think that las is almost
the same as / o'clock. But, lady,
1t isn't.
Time is not anything to be frit-
tered away these days. Business
girls have known that for a long
time and have frothed at the mouth
at their more leisurely friends who
don't know how to be prompt for
lunch. But now that more OF us
are getting into committees and
volunteer services, the woman who
Is late for a luncheon date becomes
downright unpatriotic.
My advice to luncheon daters is
to make your date to meet inside
the restaurant Then the first one
to arrive should start ahead with
her meal. If the other one is late,
she just has to go without eating, or
eat the latter half of her meal alone.
And the girl who was on time at
least gets fed. There's no compro-
mise possible. JEAN.

they have been. There Is still plenty

Good news to the housewife who

Gently is the fact that a number OF

finest cuts of meat at bargain prices
for the week end. Rib roasts and

self to a luxury cut at budget

Fish Is still in trouble, due to

One Of the new coverall suits for
women in defense, or for play, has
adjustable trouser bottoms which
can be worn full or buttoned up to
hug the leg. It's perfect for bicy-

for guards over your slacks.
The same "defendall" outfit has a

a tiny stand-up collar is another

When You Prepare
Bacon and Eggs

Try serving those inseparable
twins-bacon and eggs-a new way.
For each egg use one slice of bread,
lightly buttered on both sides. Place
on it slice of American cheese (or
substitute your favorite type).
Separate the yolks from the
whites, whipping the whites to a
stiff meringue. Put a fluffy ring of
stifi egg white completely around
the bread, leaving a hollow center
in which to drop the egg yolk
Place half strip of bacon over each
side Of egg white and broil a few
minutes until bacon Is as crisp as
you like it.
