little heavier than other sections, but
one can't say that it isn't positively
delicious and a great treat. Take, for
example, New England Clam Chow

Not all our heroes are at the front.
There are many of them right here in
every community, unrecognized.
These unrecognized heroes are
those young men and those young
women who, when invited by their
acquaintance to indulge in drinking,
smoking, loose conversation and ques-
tionable living, have, in the face OF
possible ridicule, the moral courage
TO refuse.
Many a young person is more a.
fraid of being laughed at or being
shelved by his comrades than he is
of flying bullets in the excitement of
battle.
The ordinary person, sheeplike, sim
ply goes along with the gang. But
a young person who has a character
of such heroic quality is above the
control of the herd instinct.
Like sunbeam shining through a
dark cloud, such young person
stands out from the crowd.
Their so called friends" may in
sist, may ridicule, may even threaten,
but their words have no more power
than so much wind against mountain
rock.
Daniel and his three companions
were youths of such heroic character.
Rather than deny their religious prin-
spies, they braved the roaring flames
of their fiery furnace.
There are many other Daniels.
There are some in your own commun-
ity. There may be such an unrecog-
nized hero or heroine in your own
home.
Although they may be unrecogniz-
ed, yet they are the backbone of the
moral strength of the youth of our
nation.
Let us take off our hats to the
young man and to the young woman
who will not indulge in low living.
Even the crowd secretly admires
the heroism of the youth who will not
be swept along by the force of its
own appeal.

HOT OFF THE CREDIBLE

If creamed soup must stand after
being made, place it in double boil
er over hot water. 1t is almost i'm
possible to keep it hot over a direct
flame without scorching, and scorch
ed cream soup is an abomination.
Dreamed soups have a tendency to
get too thick while they are being
served. Hence it is a good idea to
have hot milk or water nearby so, at
the last minute, the soup can be thin
ned little.
The large outside leaves of lettuce
may be rolled around any kind of
meat or vegetable mixture, covered
with buttered crumbs and Drowned
in the frying pan or in the oven.

Routine Not
An Ogre
Wise Young Mother
Adjusts Her New
Way of Living
Bv Leffice Lee Street,

By Leftice Lee Street,
The mother who is learning to
take care of her first baby is ex-
periencing the happy realization
that now, instead of being a carefree
girl, she is a responsible married
woman with a precious little baby
all her own. child whose future
health and character depend largely
upon her care and judgment.
AS the young mother endeavors
to manage her new way of life and
to organize an efficient, smooth
running routine for herself and her
little family, she will find numerous
obstacles, large and petty, that will
impede or entirely block the path
she has chosen as the safest and
WiseSt for her to travel.
Among these stumbling blocks may
be interference with the care of her
child from people or circumstances.
She can enlarge these out of all
proportion to their seriousness if she
allows herself, in her zeal to be a
good mother, to become overly rigid
about what she will and will not do.
A conscientious mother, listening
with solemn intensity to every word
of instruction from the doctor and
nurse as to the best methods of
baby care, is likely to take too lit
orally the advice that the baby must
be fed on the dot every four hours,
that he must have an airing every
fine dag and that bathing, sleeping,
etc, must go such and such a
way. She resolves, with an anxious
little catch of her breath, to abide
religiouSly by the rules no matter
what!
The attitude is commendable. very
much so, unless it is carried to the
point of fanatlcism. The grim and
rigid resolve that all else, and every
one else, must be adjusted to the
needs of the baby can make a
mother overanxious and overtired.
1t can force her into the grave
error not only of endangering her
own health and happiness, and her
own chance to be a wellbalanced
woman. but also it can cause her to
sacrifice her husbands peace of
mind and pleasure in his home.
This is when a mans security in his
wife's love and her devotion to his
interests begins to Waver.
Routine should not be an ogre in
the household. An innocent babe
should not be given the cloak of a
tyrant.
1t is my belief that an infant S
routine should be adjusted to meet
the practical needs of the individual
household. Write to me, care of this
paper, if you would like to know
where you may obtain, free of cost,
a chart that will help you to eff
ciently plan your and your baby S
day. These charts are made up for
infants under l year, and please
be sure to state your babys age
and to incloSe a self addressed,
stamped (3-cent envelope with your
request.

Excess Hair
Should Be
Removed
Leg Smoothness
Demanded for
Short Skirts
By Patricia Lindsay

No matter what the shape Of your
legs, thin or lovely or heavy, they
can look the lovelier II they are
kept free Of superfluous hair.
Many women seem confused about
this specific beauty problem. They
dislike removing the hair for fear
1t will grow in more thickly and
become more bothersome.
1t is true that no one depilatory
will remove superfious hair per-
manently-only electrolysis is ca
pable OF that. But in nine cases
out Of ten, the regular application
of q depilatory (cream or wax does
discourage the rapid growth Of the
hair. But the single case out of
10 may result in increased growth
from regular removal.
The question to settle in your
own mind is this: Do you prefer
a dark shadowy leg beneath trans
parent silk or nylon stocking to
smooth one? II the hair growth
is light. or sparse, there is no need
to remove 1t. But If it is dark and
noticeable. then I feel for beauty's
sake. it is better to use depilatory,
or shave the legs.
From experiments with girls I
cannot honestly say that shaving
the legs makes the hair thicker and
coarser. On the contrary I have
noticed that hair reappears about
the same time whether it is shaved
or removed by depilatory. And
the growth is about the same.
If one has the patience one can
keep the hair rubbed of with fine
emery or with a wet pumice stone.
Smooth the leg first by using de-
pilatory or a razor. and then once
or twice a week, rub the leg with
either pumice or emery to discour-
age the growth. This possibly is
the best way to preserve constant
leg smoothness.
1t is unfortunate that some su-
perf1uous hair grows more quickly
than others, and the girl who is in
most need Of depilatories for the
removal Of superfluous hair, is the
victim Of rapid and thick growth.

Many Dessert
Recipes Are
Thrifty
Condensed Milk Is
Used in Several
Offered Here
By Edith NJ. Barber

HOW about using SWeeteneo con-
densed milk in some of your dessert
recipes?" writes reader. MY fam
lily loves sweet desserts and while I
know they could do without them, it
seems to me that I might stretch
my sugar supply by buying con-
densed milk"
OF course there are many good
recipes using this product. There
are chocolate drops which, next TO
brownies, I like better than any
other chocolate cookie recipe. There
is the chocolate frosting which, if
combined with more water, makes a
good sauce for ice cream or cottage
pudding.
Then there Is that lemon custard
which can serve either as pudding
or as filling for pastry shell. 1
do not know of better recipe for
our favorite lemon pie and certainly
none that is so quick and easy to
make. Sweetened condensed milk
can be used in rice pudding and 1t
works just as well in baked custards
and bread and tapioca puddings Not
long ago 1 had a cake-like dessert
made by dipping thick finger lengths
of bread in sweetened condensed
milk, rolling them in grated cocoa
nut and toasting them in the oven.

cake. Yield, enough frosting for
two 9-inch layers or "a cup cakes.
Note-If 3. cup water is added in
stead of the coffee, you will have a
good chocolate sauce. For thicker
sauce, add less water.
