CLEANING COFFEE MAKER;
SUGAR COOKIES.
THANKS to Mrs. M. H.,
Hunffs,,ilIe Md


wonder If Mrs. D. E. B. OF Wash
ington has tried cleaning the out
side of her glass coffee maker. I had
the same trouble and 1t took quite q
time to discover that it was the out
side, not inside, that was at fault
I used steel wool, but in these times
maybe something else will do the
trick.
Might I suggest, with regard to
Mrs. j. F. C.'s recipe for sugar
cookies, that the dough be dropped
from q teaspoon, allowed to stand a
few moments, then pressed into
shape with the bottom of glass;
cover with a damp cloth. This works
well with any rolled cookie recipe
and is certainly much easier than
rolling.
Reno will lose lot of business If
the women of this country follow
Mrs. l.. T.'s recipe for cooking hus-
bands!

MARSHMALLOWS;
BARBECUED SPARERIBS;
BURNED PANS.

(Thunks to Mrs. w. B. H.,
Arlington.)
III answer to the inquiry made by
Mrs. c. w. MacM., Washington, re-
garding hard marshmallows, I don't
know of way to soften them after
they harden, but I do know of a good
use for the hard marshmallows.
cut each marshmallow in half and
put in top of double boiler. Add q
small quantity Of canned evapo-
rated milk and heat over hot water
until marshmallows begin to soften
Remove from fire and beat with
fork. When dissolved, place in deep
bowl and add more canned milk
Chill thoroughly. This will beat
nicely and can be used in place ot
whipped cream, but should be used
very soon after whipping. A small
amount of f1avoring may be added
This whipped milk combines nicely
with milk puddings in making ice
cream. The marshmallows sweeten
the evaporated milk sufficiently.
use six or eight marshmallows to
cup Of milk.
Now for my first request. I should
like to know how to barbecue spare
ribs, and shall appreciate any sug-
cestions.

Thanks to Mrs. J. H. W.,

Does some reader know what tc
do with crabapple jelly that never
jelled? I made about two dozen
jars last summer using the bottled
pectin directions faithfully, but with
no luck. Is there some method OF
recooking to make it firmer? Some
one suggested putting it in the sun
for several days, but it made no Diff
ference. I'd rather not throw 1t out

Mrs. D. G., who wonders how to
wash wool socks, will have to make
some sort Of frame unless she can
buy them ready-made. Maybe a wire
coat hanger twisted to the proper
size and shape would do. Other
wise heavy cardboard sock frame
would do. 'Lukewarm soapy water
and two rinses are all that iscneces-
sary.

Expression Of Our Culture

''This Federal City belongs to all
Of us and merits our best united
efforts in order that it may be rec
ognized as an outstanding example
OF what a national capital should
be-the highest expression Of our
culture"
Thus the President, in a letter
read Friday evening at dinner
given by the Joint Committee on
the Nations Capital, restated
theme which from the very begin
ming of Washington has supplied
the spirit and direction of its de-
velopment. That development has
been marked by inspired periods of
rededicated effort and by long in
tervals OF neglect: by abrupt de-
partures from, as we'll as faithful
adherence to, the original plan of
the city. Here in Washington the
ebb and flow of currents which
moved the Nation have left their
mark, some OF them as dismal as
others are inspiring reminders Of
what has gone before. Washington
always has reflected the spirit of
the Nation.
At this dinner on Friday evening
some of the distinguished men who
are working on the plans for the
future Washington told of the
physical Improvements awaiting the
release Of energies now devoted to
war-such things as the new high.
way system, the development
of East Capitol street for Federal
and public use buildings. proposed
legislation for urban redevelopment
OF slum and blighted areas, new
bridges across the Potomac, compile
ton of the Baltimore and the
George Washington Memorial Park
ways, the razing of temporary war
buildings and the removal of un-
slightly structures which have out
lived their original purpose.
1t was Senator Burton who re-
minded the guests of the obligation
to rebuild, as we'll as to build-not
to lose sight or thought, while think
Ing OF physical development, Of the
people who live in utter squalor in
this beautiful Capital, whose "hor-
rible" condition must be relieved by
the provision of decent housing.
For while broad avenues, great pub
lie buildings, libraries and magnifi-
cent parks are the evidences of
"our culture" which fill US with
pride, that culture is wanting which
leaves unremedied the hidden, fes-
tering spots of a community. Nor
shall we be able to achieve, in
Washington, the highest expression
of our culture as a Nation as long as
Washingtonians are left without
representation in the Government
which taxes them and sends them
to war.

Church Federation

The Washington Federation Of
Churches long since proved the
wisdom and efficiency of co-opera-
ton. With twenty-five different
denominations and agencies repre-
sented, the organization operates as
an effective unit in the fields Of
religion, education and social well
fare to the advantage Of the whole
community. 1t is frankly Protestant
in its philosophy, but there is moth
ing limited about its purposes and
objectives. The eighty-flve ministers,
laymen and women who are men,
bers of its Board of Directors agree
with their president, the Reverend
DR.. John w. Rustin, in the doctrine
that: "The only way it is possible
for the forces of righteousness to
succeed is to present united front"
How great is the need for such an
achievement may be illustrated by
the revealing fact that only one
child in four attending secular
schools in the Nations Capital also
attends school affording religious
and ethical instruction. The fed
Grafton has sponsored a leadership
training school in which more than
thousand actual or potential
teachers enrolled 1t likewise has
supported vacation church school

a defense commission in aid of
service personnel and civilian war
workers, a committee on a just and
durable peace and a department of
research and planning for the guild
ance OF extension endeavor in areas
previously neglected. A particularly
important activity is that OF main.

The cost of the federation's in
elusive program for the period be-
tween April l, 1914, and March 81,
1945, will be s53,825. OF that total
amount, s33,419 is being solicited
from churches and individuals
friendly to the cause of Christian
progress. No one is asked to con-
tribute save those who share DR..
Rustin's ideal Of unity and fellow
ship to keep alive the principles
that made and will keep America
strong in spirit.
