I am inclosing two recipes for po-
tato pancakes in response to the re-
quest by Mrs. M. M. K.
For those mothers who are having
difficulty in getting their children
to help with the dishes, the inclosed
poem might help. I found 1t very
helpful with a group of girls with
whom I was working at camp one
summer.
Now have request to make, too.
Do any of the readers have recipes
for Kosher soups and meats? They
must have no milk or butter in them.

MEMORY QUILT.
From Mrs. w. S., Washington.
I am very anxious to tell Mrs. H.
K, Arlington, about the memory
quilt I am making for my 9-year odd
daughter.
I chose the odd Fashioned Flower
Garden" pattern. The centers of all
flowers are yellow I'D on this I print
the year when the dress was made.
l embroider this date in brown
French knots which resemble the
center of flower. The next row
of pieces is usually the color with
which the dress was trimmed. The
last row around is made up of the
actual dress material. Each tiny
patch used is about the size of half
dollar. All flowers are put together
with white muslin patches. This
must all be handsewn.
CHOCOLATE BUTTER CREAMS.
fFron1 M. A., Washington
One pound of xxx sugar, u pound
Of butter, l teaspoon vanilla, 2
squares of chocolate.
Cream butter and sugar together
then add vanilla and work in butter
until it is all taken up, then knead
like bread dough until 1t can be
broken off in small pieces. Form
these into balls and pour over the
chocolate which has been melted in
double boiler until all is covered.
put the balls on a long hat pin and
hold over the boiler over a low light
to keep the chocolate soft. Add the
vanilla to the butter and sugar while

SALUTATION.
(From I. /. B., Arltngton)
have q beautiful and inspiring
poem which I should like to submit
to the RICH as holiday greeting
to all.
THE SALVATION OF THE DAWN.
Listen to the exhortation OF the dawn;
In its brief course lie all the varieties
And realities Of your existence:
The glory Of action
The splendor of beauty.
For yesterday was but dream,
And tomorrow is only vision.
But today well lived
Makes every yesterday dream Of
And every tomorrow dream OF hope.
Look well therefore to this day!
Such is the salutation Of the dawn.
From the Ancient sanskrt.
