This Is the Wav- ,

With the conditions prevailing to-
day many of us for the first time in
our lives are confronted with the job
Of doing our own laundry. Profess
sional laundry and cleaning services
have been curtailed and domestic
help Is harder and harder to find.
Therefore, it is up to us homemakers
to pitch In and do the job ourselves.
If you are faced with this problem,
perhaps you would like to know
what the experts have to say on this
subject the how to do" so to
speak.
It's a good Idea to do a little
washing quite often several
times a week. 1t makes the work
seem easier and solves, to some ex-
tent, the problem of having enough
hot water to do a thorough job. 1t
is also wise to divide the laundry
into groups, such as towels and
sheets, table linens and dish towels
clothes The latter should also be
divided. Make one lot of tailored or
simple things and another group OF
the more difficult pieces.
Plenty of soap and hot water are
absolutely essential. If you are not
the fortunate possessor of a wash
ing machine, doing the laundry by
hand is long and tedious job, but
many of us are doing it today simply
because there is no other way. II

clothes first in warm, soapy water

soaking, wiring out the clothes anc
souse them up and down in tut

should remove all the dirt eXcep'

cuffs, collars. etc Put soap on these
spots and rub by hand.

Bv Arthur II. Deute

These days Sicily is among the
uhhappiest spots in all this wide
World. Hopefully, 1t will not be long
Until it will again be an island Of
hills and valleys, where farms and
vineyards may be cultivated in the
warm, sunny climate and hard
working peasants may again sit
abound the table under the tree to
ehioy plain but appetizing food. In
tie meantime we can adapt a ST.
Gillian dinner to our own homes.
Meat has always been scarce there
bat that makes little difference.
For dinner We will have
Antipasto
Spaghetti with eggplant sauce
Fresh fruit A bit of cheese

THE spaghetti is cooked in plain,
salted water, not too soft. and then
teSsed into the colander, we'll washed
ot1t and returned to the pot to heat
and then poured onto huge plat
ter covered with the eggplant sauce
and then with grated cheese, and
ready to serve.
1.-THE eggplant sauce is simple and
delightful: Peel and dice the egg
plant and let it soak 10 minutes In
plain water. Then drain and dry.
Pour few spoonfuls of olive oil
or bacon drippings into sauce
pan or skillet and in it brown a
minced onion or nubbin of garlic
Of using garlic, remove the garlic
when it has Drowned and favored
the oilD Then add the diced egg
plant, cooking until almost done
Now add large can Of tomatoes, stir
well and cook until you have a
smooth, rich sauce. Season with salt
and pepper. 1t is now ready to pour
over the spaghetti and to take on
the cheese. Serve on individual
plates from the great platter.

RIDDING HOUSE OF FLEAS.

Can some of your readers give me
helpful suggestions on getting rid
of a pest of fleas which have in

for soaking, must be grouped with
a view to being washed together to
the best advantage. It's largely a
matter of selecting pieces about
equally soiled and dividing them so
that there are large and small pieces
in each load. It goes without say
ing that dark colors must never be
mixed in with white or light shades.
After you have filled the washing
machine with hot water put in the
soap, keeping the machine in oper-
alton until all soap is dissolved.
Then put in the laundry and wash 1t
eight to ten minutes. Six pounds is
about as big load as the average
washing machine will stand. You
can judge the weight by the fact
that two sheets, four pillow cases
and four large bath towels are ap-
proXimately pounds. When the
clothes are clean, give them ct least
two rinsings in clear, warm water.
If you follow these suggestions and
wash several times a week, you will
not be tempted to use the wash
water more than once. Remember
you cannot get clothes clean without
plenty of soap and clean wate".
Many people make the mistake Of
washing in soiled water and it Is
really waste of time and energy.
When it comes to your own per-
sonal lingerie, it's best to do the
washing by hand. Use good
soap and water that is comfortably
warm to the hands. Squeeze the
garments through and through the
water until you feel they are thor
oughly clean Straps, bands and
hens will very likely have to be
rubbed between the hands after an
extra application of soap to these
parts. Follow washing with abun-
dant rinsings.
Many Well-made undergarments
Of the tailored type can be success
fully washed in the washing ma
chine. Don't leave them in, how
ever. more than two or three
minutes. You then have the ad-
vantage of your ringer or spinner
/ basket to get rid of excess water.
When you do this by hand, you un-
| consciously twist the material pretty
| tightly and it's bit hard on the
fabric. After washing by hand, the
old trick of pressing out the excess
water in a clean bath towel still
seems to be the safest method

T Temtting Way
To Serve
Chicken

If you live in the country and
have plenty OF chickens, or If
you are able to obtain one of
the too birds on the rare
occasions when they are avail
able in local markets, you will
be interested in the following
method of preparing and serv-
ing chicken for an out-of doors
luncheon for the hard-working
Victory gardeners.
Here's how it is done:
young chicken, 3 or 1
pounds.
l teaspoon salt.
Il teaspoon pepper.
81 cup flour (about)
"a cup shortening.
3. cup milk or cream.
/ round loaf bread.
u cup butter.
X teaspoon garlic salt.
l. After the chicken Is
cleaned unjoint it and with a
sharp cleaver cut into uniform
pieces. Mix together salt,
pepper and -four. Dip each piece
of chicken into the flour.
2. Place the Toured chicken
into pan in which the short
ening has been heated. Cook
until brown. Place in a we'll
creased 2-quart heat-resistant
glass casserole. Pour the short
ening over the chicken; add the
milk or cream.
3. Cover the casserole and
bake in a moderate oven, $50
degrees Fahrenheit, about one
hour or until the chicken Is
tender.
4. In the meantime, slice the
top off the round loaf of bread
and scoop out the center with
fork. Spread the inside of the
loaf with melted butter or mar
garine to which the garlic has
been added. Place the whole
lOa1 IN the oven WIN Ine
chicken to heat thoroughly
without browning, for about IS
to 20 minutes.
S. When the chicken is ten
der, lift out carefully and pack
in the hot bread shell. Cover
with the hot bread slice: wrap
in wax paper, not too tightly.
Place in a picnic basket. Cover
lightly with a towel. Do not
wrap tightly or bread will steam
and soften. Serve chicken first,
then pull bread apart and serve
as an accompaniment. This is
a delicious and different way to
serve chicken at a picnic.

In all cases. with the exception

that the men in question were
