Look carefully at the branch
you are pruning and make all
cuts just above a bud or node
where a leaf or branch comes

Meat Temperature

IN COOKING meat by any
method, a low temperature is
desirable not only from the
standpoint of palatability, but OF
economy.
The cooking losses caused by
high temperatures are more no
ticeable in meats which have
been roasted, broiled or pan
broiled. but they also occur when
heat used In braising and cook
ing In water is unnecessarily
high.

It's Time s.
To Prune
Your Shrubs
BY ISABEL FUCKER

uOW many shrubs have you In
- your yard that have already
done their share OF beautifying
IL with flowers? Chances are
you have several, maybe forsy-
thia or Towering ounce, pussy
willow or white kerria. All OF
these should be pruned now.
Because why? Because pretty
soon they'll start making buds
for next years flowers and II
you prune them afterward. you'll
find yourself wondering why
they don't bloom when next
spring comes.
Good Practice
This pruning Of all shrubs
Just as soon as the flowers fade
and drop is the best possible
practice to follow. II does not
necessarily apply TO those shrubs
which have beautiful berries In
the fall, because you undoubt-
edly value these quite as much
for their berries as you do for
their flowers.
In the case of. berried shrubs,
wait until late fall and prune
then. after the height OF color
has passed, but you must prune
just part of each OF these shrubs
each year so as not to lose all
the bloom.
How to Pruns
Pruning does not, decidedly
not, mean hacking of the shrub
squarely across the top. To say
the least this Is injurious TO the
shrub uHaesthetie te-the- eye.
and unnatural.
To prune a shrub. first find a
picture of the same kind In a
book or catalogue, or take a
long and careful look at the one
you intend TO prune. Note its
natural habit OF growth, Its nat
ural shape.
Then with due thought and
consideration Tor these, remove
all dead wood, cut back long
straggly branches where needed.

FROM the moment Pola Negri stepped out of the
wings of the Imperial Ballet Theatre in Warsaw
to dance before the Gear of Russia, her fate
sealed
Never again-and she was only fourteen years
old at the time-would she find happiness and peace
for long.
True, Fate eased her pain with an unrivalled
motion picture career and a fortune such as few
actresses acquire True it lavished upon her
the affections of men whose names household
words.
But at the same time it looted her life of each
of her lovers it gave her renewed youth and beauty
Pola Negri today looks younger than she did twenty
years ago!
But Gypsy's curse had warned her that the men
who loved her would be doomed. She fought against
the superstition with all her might, yet the curse
true a dozen times and tragedy marred her
life.
Love, indeed, was her undoing.
What romantic group they werel
Everyone knows their names:
Count Eugene Dabski the Polish landowner;
Rudolph Valentino, great lover of the screen;
Prince Serge Mdivani of the Marrying Mdvanis";
Russ Columbo, the popular singer; Glen Kidston,

CLANS Make
Meal aDelight

The controversy of whether the
New England clam chowder is
tastier than the Manhattan clam
chowder may 60 on forever but the
clam will always reign high in the
good foods popularity poll. This
relative of the celebrated oyster is
with us the year round and always
seems to be just right in taste, &C
cording to the fishery council.
The clam is versatile food and
can be used as an appetizer, as a
Soup course Or main dish. It would
please your palate to have clans in
one form or another as part of any
meal you care to enjoy.
On the haif-shell clans make an
excellent cocktail. In this form they
are one of the few foods eaten
without cooking, leaving all the nat
ural goodness to the digestive sys-
tenn. And clans have plenty of
health merits OF their credit for
they are highly concentrated food
with plenty of vitamin and mineral
content.
The clam choWder has become an
American institution no matter what
the personal tastes may be as to
adding milk or tomatoes. In winter
time it makes for one of the most
satisfying soups obtainable and is
mighty God for the resistance
that is needed during the cold
months.
Besides the popular hard-shell
clam, the soft-shell variety has a
tremendous following. When steamed
they yield delicious molsels and the
resulting broth leaves little to be
desired.
The supply of clans throughout
the year is rather steady. 1t takes
a spell of drastic weather to keep
them from our dinner tables.
Following is a good way to pre-
pare clam chowder:

l pint clans, ground CT chopped
1-3 cup onion
u cup diced bacon fried to a crisp
