Matching stockings or socks Is
not always easy for some; this is
time-saver. Use a small safety
pin in the hem, wash and let stock
ings dry for two days, turning over
two or three times. Never run your
hand into a damp stocking. Some
lines we have many stockings that
do not match and that are the same
cotton mesh. Boil the darker ones
in a mild, soapy water for three
minutes. This takes a little of the
color out which you will need to
match them with lighter ones to
make your pairs. 1t Is good plan
also to buy four pairs at a time;
this insures two pairs usually good.
For those who have a Presto
cooker. The factory has advised me
to clean it with "wet and dry sand
paper" not the usual kind. Also
to use silver polish. The new seal
ing rings are not all rubber and
are not very close-fitting. To test
your indicator weight, let it cook
wee bit over the cook" mark and
if steam comes out, it is in order.
The factory will send you any part
that you need.
If any of your readers want to
know anything about California

fore coming here, let me state that
I will gladly write to them If they

TUNA FISH PIE.
(Thanks to Mrs. r. c. H.,
SilUer Spring.)
I am sure Mrs. H. H. S., Washing
ton, will be delighted with this
recipe and go back for a second
helping, for all of my friends do!
-Four tablespoons butter, 4 table
spoons flour, cups milk. Pour this
over vegetables. One cup diced
carrots, 2 cans tuna fish, 2 teaspoons
green pepper, cup diced potatoes, 2
pirnentos, salt and pepper. Bake
with a pie crust over the top Is or
20 minutes. Sometimes I use the
can of carrots and peas mixed. You
can use buttered bread crumbs on
top.
Pie Crust for Top: One CUP flour
sifted, 2 tablespoons water, S table
spoons fat, "a teaspoon baking
powder, 2 egg yolks, salt.
HINTS; BROWNIES;
ICE CREAMS.
(Thanks to Mrs. NJ. L. B.,

To show my appreciation of your
column, I would like to submit the
following:
If white stains are made by heat
on mahogany surface, dampen a
cloth with alcohol and rub on stains.
This has always been effective in
my case.
Never Fail Mexingue: 3 egg
whites, 6 tablespoons sugar, pinch
salt, few drops of vanilla and
vinegar.
Beat eggs until frothy, add salt
and beat until whites are stiff but
not dry; add sugar, about / table,
spoon at a time and continue beat
ing until thoroughly blended. Add
few drops of vanilla and vinegar.
With a knife, spread meringue all
around the edge of the piecrust
then pile in peaks on pie and bake
20 minutes at 325 degrees. This
meringue cuts beautifully and no
beads form on it if it stands for
days.
Cheap Brownies: One cup sugar
2 tablespoons milk, cook together

Alexandria Paper Drive

Charles Henry Mason, Alexandria

co-operated in yesterdays paper
salvage drive, but labeled the result
disappointing"
Mr.. Mason estimated only 10000
pounds were collected, while 10000
to 100000 pounds should have been
turned in. He said that, in his
opinion, only 20 per cent of the
stores and homes in the city turned
in paper in spite of widespread ad-
vance publicity.
Volunteers manned 81 trucks and
many more trucks were offered but
not used because of the small amount
of paper placed on curbs.
Although informed that paper
should be placed on corners and tied
together, many bundles were placed
in the middle of the block and VOL
unteers were forced to 60 into base
ments to get some paper.

don't understand. This is Frank. 4"
Mrs. Noble stopped talking. Over

he was at National Airport. Would

Snugging in Norrows
Below Chain Bridge
Drows 300 Anglers

About 300 enthusiasts enjoyed a
frolic of fish-snagging yesterday in
the Potomac rapids below Chain
Bridge.
The shad, perch and herring were
30 thick in the swirling waters that
many of the most successful anglers
merely cut a pole from a green
sapling and hung weight and
graphing hooks to it.
Others, who seemed to enjoy the
casting almost as much as the
catching, were putting weighted
spoons out into the middle of the
river.
The Jagged outcropping of granite
on the river edge was lined with
men, boys and a few women along
the east edge of the narrows. There
were almost as many on the Virginia
side at the foot of brownstone pali-
sades.
The catch was phenomenal.
John Bear, his husky 25-year- -old
son, Lloyd Bear, and his youngest
son, l2-year-old John Bear, jr., ar
rived from Wolfsville, Md, before
dawn. At pm. they left with two
large burlap sacks filled with fish.
Walter King, a guard at the Fair
child airplane plant at Hagerstown
Md, worked there all night and
then came to Chain Bridge for the
first time to try his luck at snagging
fish. EarlV in the afternoon he
had a catch of 16 beautiful shad
totalling IS pounds.
The urchins had a picnic. They
backed up their favorite fishermen
and in return for aid in unlocking
the fish were given all the small
perch and herring hauled in.
Veterans said it was one of the
best days fishing under the bridge
