Come for Dessert!
By Dorothy Bihlman

Home can be the center Of your
social life with no strain on ration
points and nerves, If you adopt a
streamlined entertainment tech
nique. This might sound a little
odd to the many hostesses who,
heretofore, have set q lavish re-
freshment table, but with market
conditions as they are at present
we'll bet the idea Of coffee and
dessert party will become popular.
It's similar to the progressive din
ner" type of entertaining which
was SO well liked few years back.
You remember, one hostess served
the appetizer course, another the
entree, still another the salad, final
ly ending with "yum-yum" and bev-
erage at the home where the party
was to remain the rest of the eve
ming. It took lot of gas to run
from house to house, which we
didn't mind then, but today let's
suggest our friends eat their main
courses at home and just come over
for the finale.
The casualness Of such an invita-
ton Is no reason for being neglect
ful in service or setting. In fact
you'll have more time to prepare
less, so you can use it to good ad-
vantage by planning an attractive
table. On your first party go all
out with glamour. Bring out your
best linens, china, silver and glass.
Don't necessarily use your large
damask cloth, instead, set the table
with embroidered runners, if you
have them. Use them criss-cross
and place large bowl of cut flowers
in the center Candles and holders
are always good, but for a change
you might secure two lovely ceramic
birds and arrange them on either
side of the floral bouquet.
AS to food, keep it in accord with
the table setting. For instance with
an arrangement such as the above
serve a delicious tutti-frutti mold
with angel cake, or for something a
little heavier a peach upside-d down
cake. Coffee, and tea for those who
prefer it, and there is your whole
menu. Don't you agree it all sounds
simple?
/ For your next coffee and dessert
party set the table at the other
extreme, bright and gay, using mex
pensive items. You might purchase
strip of gay toweling and make
1t into oblong place mats ano
napkins. All you have to do is hem
the two sides, for the width of the
strips is just about right. This new
toweling may be secured from sew
eral stores. The prettiest has bright
blue, red or yellow border and a

Dorothy Dix Says

Dear Miss Dix: Adolescent girls
are hard to deal with, as every
mother knows. I have one IA years
old, and I have solved the problem
of how to manage her by the allow
ance system. What she gets she has
to earn by performing certain tasks
and by her general conduct. I began
this system when she was a very
small child. When she didn't pick
up her toys or her books or clothes
and didn't want to stop playing long
enough to 60 on an errand,
wouldn't fuss or argue with her
about it. But on Saturday when all
the girls were going to the movies
and she came in for her money, I
explained to her that she hadn't
earned it and that nothing was
coming to her.

had his daily portion of this golden,
health-giving beverage every day
since. Orange juice is a foremost
source of vitamin c, which promotes
general health and is helpful to
good bone and, tooth development.
1t is an important food for growing
bodies. Skipper doesn't yet know
about vitamin c. He likes orange
juice because 1t tastes good.
Skipper is one of the record
breaking throng Of new citizens who
have arrived in this country during
the last two years via the "stork
route" Families that are fortunate
enough to have one of these young
folks have special cause to observe
Child Health Day, May /, set
aside for the national observance of
the health of Americas children.
But wise mothers make every day
a child health day by seeing that
these growing children have the
foods they should.

It nearly broke my heart watching
the other girls buying Ice cream and
candy and my baby doing without,
but I didn't give in Now that she
is older she gets bigger allowance
that fuctuates according to her re-
port card. If it is over IS, she gets
an increase. If she fails, she Is
docked tor it. So the harder she
studies, the more she has to spend.
A PROUD MOTHER.
Answer-And a good one it is,
for a lecture on behavior goes in one
ear of child and out at the other.
But once let the youngsters realize
that their own comfort and pleasure
depends upon their playing the game
with mother and their memories are
logged into action, and you have .
reform that reforms
Also, no better and more useful
training can be given a child than
to teach him how to handle money.

SYRIAN RECIPES.

AS a constant reader of RICH,
have obtained a wealth of informa-

sending in a few recipes which
hope will be what Mrs. S. P. K. of
Omaha requested.
Lamb Meat Pie: From meat cut
from lamb shoulder mince fine
about pound of meat, fat and lean.
Put in skillet, adding salt and pepper
and a dash of allspice, stir often
until meat is slightly Drowned. Re-
move from fire, add about half
cup of vinegar gradually stirring it..
1t may take less if one doesn't like
the flavor of vinegar too much. Pour
in bowl and set aside to cool. In
the meantime if you can get the
Drowned butter most of the SyrianS
use in their cooking you can make a
crust as you would for a pie, using
this butter. If butter is not avail
able I have used margarine and it
has served the purpose I roll out
the dough in large sheet and cut
out pieces with large tumbler
Place a tablespoon of filling on half
of each piece of dough. Fold over
and pinch edges and lay on creased
cookie sheet. Bake in hot oven
until brown.

recipe may be found in a store that
sells Oriental groceries and If un-
able to find any please drop me a
line in care of R. C. H., so may
forward you an address where you
can purchase same. If the lamb
shoulder you obtain Is large enough
so you can get enough lean meat to
make about two cups of ground
meat, grind the meat first in the
coarse knife of the grinder then put
it through the second time in finest
knife of grinder. After this second
grinding peel a large onion and
put all through again to catch
all the onion flavor and juice left
in grinder. Now mix salt, pepper,
a dash Of red pepper, ground onions
and meat thoroughly. Take two
cups OF medium crushed wheat
which is used in this recipe and
wash about three times in cold
water and drain about one hour
before making the loaf Mix
soaked wheat and seasoned ground
meat until all the wheat is well
incorporated. This mixture is pat
ted out about l inch thick, cut in
diamond shape. Pour enough salad
oil or shortening to cover loaf and
bake in hot oven one hour or until
,- -..oIy Drowned. Care must be
taken in using pan deep enough
so when loaf starts baking the hot
fat doesn't bubble up too much and
splash oven walls.

ing either lamb or veal and a COM

FAT SALVAGE.
(Fron Mrs. P. X. A., Arlfnqton.)
have been helped so much by the
RICH that I am glad to offer this
suggestion for getting more salvage
fat.
I keep a small glass-covered cas-
serole in the oven and whenever I
have scraps from steaks, chops, or
roasts, 1 put them in it. I Just
leave it there. Whenever I bake it
renders the fat without any trouble.
I never wash it and it's baked
brown and not good for anything
else. remove the dried-out pieces
with two forks. I have more than
doubled my fat saving this way.
The best part of it is, that fat
scraps from the dinner plates can
60 in it, too, and they really add up.
I hope this helps your readers and
the fat salvage!
