Separate Meals Unsatisfactory.
II dislike the idea of giving the

myself another. Of course I could

dishes, salads, fruit pastries with
which we American women are fill
ing up gaps in our bills-of-fare. But
I hate to do it, and it makes me
mad to see other women in the
market buying lamb shoulders, beef
tongue, brains, pigs feet, sausages,
fish-everything that the limited
budget suggests, while I 60 on pric-
ing roast beef and turkey. A big
turkey ought to give us three meals;
roast, stew, and a thick soup, but
Charles only eats it once. A pot
roast, when we were first married,
was the basis of five meals, but not
now! Has any other woman" Mar
tha's letter ends, lever written you
of this predicament, and if she did
what did you say?"
Charles now ought to prove his
patriotism by setting good ex-
ample of wartime adaptability to
his children. Let him lunch tomor-
row on a glass of milk and a single
small sandwich, and then come
home and settle down to clean his
plate of frankfurters scalloped in
Spanish macaroni, creamed cab
bage, corn bread, sliced oranges and
oatmeal cookies. Tomorrow let him
lunch the same way, and show his
appetite for dinner of lamb stew,
baked sweets, mashed yellow turnip
and apple pie.
He may find-indeed, he will find,
that the balanced rations are full
of good flavors, that he feels better
afterWard, and that when Dad
praises Mothers management and
cooking the atmosphere at the din
ner table is infinitely pleasanter than
it has been. All this nonsense about
always hating boiled puddings"
and never having been able to
touch anything with celery in it,"
ought to be swept away now, be-
fore the realities of the struggle in
which we all are engaged
Careful Preparations Necessary.
But for one thing, Martha, have
the vegetables well-drained and we'll

less expensive cuts of meat care

watery mince are enough to set any,
