There's no doubt about it,
housekeeping at this time is most
difficult Let me assure you that
the business Of preparing meals
is very much easier in normal
times. If YOU can please your
husbands taste now. you'll make
him douhly happy when you can
offer him more variety.
Now that hot weather is here.
We aim to include quantities of
liquids i'm our diet. (Cool liquids
reduce body temperature and
quenCh thirst at the same time.)
There was a time when lemon
ado and ice tea were our only
''QUonchors" but that day is long
past. No doubt, you have noticed
the trend is toward other soft
drinks. which are SO easily pre-
pared | mean the delicious AIDES
of ali flav0rs that are so mex
pcnsiye.
You can buy these AIDES at
grocery stores fruit stores.
dclicatoSScn and drug stores and
in fact at almost all dealers. Per
iapS YOU have noticed how fire.
quontly shoppers include several
5c glass packages Of that popular
PayAid in their purchases. You
can usually find this item in a
display cOntainer on dealers
how cases and shelves. Each sc
glass package of Par-Aid makes
10 big glasses Of delicious thirst
quenChing drinks or more than a
half-gallon. Several different
favOrs are available. And if you
want milk drink, simply sub
stitute milk for water.
When you are entertaining, you
can freeze few glasses Of Par
Aid in the ice cube tray and
these colored ice cubes will in
terest your guests. Now, all you
need to complete your meal is
big juicy Beefwich. Here's the
way YOU make them. Beefwiches:
Make 10 large thin patties from
! pound of hamburger. On each OF
: Of the patties, place thin slice
Of onion use those big sweet
milk onionsD. On the onion place
a thin slice of raw tomato and
on the tomato. place about l tea
spoon of grated cheese. Now,
Wace the other patties on each
Of these, and pinch the top and
bottom meat patty together. This
seals in the grand onion. tomato
and cheese flavOrs. Broil them
about , inches from a moderate
flame for 7 minutes. Beefwiches
may be made in the morning,
then stored in the refrigerator

Weather Talk

BY RUTH MILLETT

The girl making conversation with
the navy officer just returned from
/ the southwest Pacific started TO
complain about the weather.
Everyone at home agreed it had
been a dismal spring-and SO she
was totally unprepared for the off,
GERS reaction.
He said. Listen. this weather is
wonderful. If you were ever in the
southwest Pacific for even a month.
you would be dreaming about this
kind of weather"
So complaining about the wealth.

give up. now that men are begin
ming to come back from places that
make even the worst weather Amer
ica can produce seem pleasant.
And maybe it will be a good thing
for us, at that. We look forward
to summer-so that we can complain
to everyone we meet, This htt
weather has me whipped"
And then we look forward to the
end of the heat so that we can
begin to complain about the cold
and the slush and the depressing
gray days.
There aren't but a few Cays in
each year VIXEN we aren't fussing
about the weather. Just getting
bored with the subject has never
made us drop it, But maybe we'll
stop if enough of us are told by
the servicemen. who froze in Europe
or sweltered in the tropics, tina. we
don't know what bad weathe. is.
And won't that be a zeal bless

for colored people, the former
slaves-equality of citizen

the denial of presence and OF
service in places opened for
public patronage as the one
great way to brand colored
people as having been a slave
race and make them forever
the scorn of civil society

The veteran should plan his

He is expected to complete any
