pore with a dramatic story of his
escape aboard a freighter which was
shelled by japanese artillery as 1t
withdrew from the eastern shore of
Johore Strait.
He doesn't wish to remember what
he saw. He was the only American
among IS refugees crammed aboard
the vessel.
When three Japanese bombers dis
covered the freighter somewhere
along the sea route to Java, he found
himself saving victims of the Jap
air attack. Three times in two hours
big two-motored bombers attacked
the ship from an altitude of 1000

Proving It's Better
Late Than Never

Although it would have been vel
coined with greater whoops OF Joy
by the average housewife had it ap-
peared earlier in the season, the
new book compiled and edited by
Anne Pierce entitled Home Can
ming for Victory" will still flnd re-
sponsive audience.
Rushed of the presses of M. Bar
rows 6z Co., Inc, of New York this
practical little volume is a compre-
hensive answer to the Governments
demand for about effort on con-
serving foods. In addition to can
ming directions and recipes, there are
sections devoted to picking, preserv-
ing and dehydrating, all meeting the
latest and most rigid standards estab-
lished by the Bureau of Home Eco
nomics of the United States De-
partment of Agriculture.
Worth the price of the entire book
is the appendix-which clarifies the
sugar allotment muddle that is puz-
zling so many women. Miss Pierce
tells how to stretch the ration to
the limit. suggests substitutes for
sugar itself, with tables of weights
and measures for substitutions and
equivalents. Her recipes are pre-
pared with sugar shortage in mind,
and many housewife will find that
now, for the flrst time, she can
manage to put up" her fruits and
vegetables without too much dis
couragement or troublesome calcula-

But fats are perishable, and those
you save so carefully may turn ram
cid If you do not use them within
a reasonable length of time. To pre-
vent such waste, plan carefully your
use of these fats. Here are some
tips from home economists, United
States Department of Agriculture,
on how to do 1t.
There are plenty of occasions
when you can make good use of
these fats. You can use them just
as fats, or as fat and fiavoring, too.
Drippings from roasts and other
cooked meats make flaVorful fats
for seasoning. Put them to use in
WAYS that best suit the tastes of.
your own family Use in gravies,
for seasoning vegetables, in salad
dressings and on wilted lettuce See
II you don't like their good flavor
in spoonbread.
You will need to clarity the drip
pings you use for baking purposes.
For instance, you can clarity drip
pings from fresh pork and use the
resulting product like lard.
Bacon drippings, one of the more
abundant types of kitchen fats, are
often used for shallow frying. AS

Hail to the informal buffet! It's
life-saver for simple entertaining
Especially for feeding good-sized
crowd. Or for family get-together
around the Labor Day week end.
Like a basic suit, it can be dressed
up or down with accessories.
No buffet needs to be burden to
the hostess. Food can be plain as
an old apron. But 1T should be
plentiful and dressed in keeping
with the occasion. Shown is basic
buffet with all the drawing power of
a good fireplace Food is served on
wood on a gay-colored cloth. Ham
baked with an orange juice-brown
sugar coating is sliced on a bread
board. Relishes are on wooden
tray and green salad in grandma's
chopping bowl. Hot rolls are Of
fered in smaller bowl with fringed
napkin cover. Twinkling candles
and bowls of fruit complete the gay
scene.
To prepare this basic buffet look
to the following recipes:
BAKED HAM.
Place a whole or half ham; fat

grees F), allowing Is to 20 minutes

The capable head Of q well-known

takes raw egg in beverage of
some kind at 10 o'clock each morn

low between-meal feeling.
The demands of well-kept house
are every bit as taxing as those of
a department store. and perhaps
you, too, have experienced the hol-
lowness which attacks so many OF
us long before lunch time rolls
around. Drinks containing one
or more eggs, thoroughly beaten,
will do wonders in keeping up your

an example-you can use bacon fat
for frying eggs, apples, chicken. cab
bage and liver and other lean meats
Bacon, sausage and poultry fats may
be used as the fat in cream sauces
for vegetables as we'll as In gravy
Fats trimmed from raw meat are
good working material, too You
can use them las is" in various
ways-directly for frying meats hav-
ing too little fat for that purpose
in suet puddings-or in pastries.
For instance, cut fat in little slivers
and use it in meat pie crust. Then,
too, you can render the meat trim
mings and use them as you would
use any other fat.
Poultry fat is good for shortening
in cakes, biscuits and other baking.
Rendered suet and rendered fresh
pork also make good Shortcomings
for pastry and biscuits and other
quick breads.
To render any raw fat such as
suet and fats from poultry, pork and
lamb, heat it until it is liquid in or
der to separate the fat from the
connective tissue. Because poultry
fat is naturally soft you do not
need to cut it before rendering, but
if the other fats are either ground
or cut into small pieces the fat
separates more quickly. A small
amount may be heated in a double
boiler. Cover and stir the fat once
in a while. AS soon as the fat is
melted, strain it into a container
that has tight cover and store
it after it is cold.
Drippings with their character
istic flavor should be used where the
favor is desired. If you want it
just "as fat" clarity it by mixing
with water, using twice as much
water as fat, and boil for 10 min
utes. Stir well and then leave it
to cool. In the case of soft fats,
this should be cooled in the refrig-
orator to give a solid cake.
Fats, other than this soft type
should form a crust over the top
during the cooling process. When
it is cold, lift off the layer of fat
and scrape any dark material from
the underside. The fat is then
ready for storing. You can remelt
it and pour it into a satisfactory
container. Clarified fats do not
keep as well as other fats, so use
them quickly.
The fat used in deep frying needs
special care. The particles of food
that tend to collect hasten its
spoilage, SO such fats should be
strained through double cheese
cloth after each use to remove any
food particles. Properly handled
and kept in cold place, this may
be used many times for deep frying.
In order to keep well fats must
be stored properly. Put the fats
that you save in clean containers
with tight fitting covers and store
in cool, dark place. Store with
as much care as you would store
unused fats. Check up once in a
while to make sure they are not
rancid-and be sure not to pour new
fats into containers with fats that
are rancid.
