Shrine Plans 10 Build
New Hospitals for
Crippled Children

Expanding its free service to Grip
pied children without regard to race,
creed or color, the Shrine of North
America plans to build more hos
pitfalls, start construction of con-
valescent homes and offer scholar
ships to orthopedic surgeons and
nurses.
This was announced by William
H. Woodfield, jr., of San Francisco,
imperial potentate, during his off,
cial visit to Almas Temple of the
Shrine here yesterday. He left
Washington today by plane for Hol-
lywood, where he will participate in

program.
Hospital at Los Angeles.
The future program of the Shrine
was outlined to members of Almas
Temple last night by Mr.. Woodfield
at the Hotel Statler, where he had
been guest of honor at dinner. At
tending were Masonic notables from
Washington and Baltimore.
The first new hospital for crippled
children since the war will be built
at Los Angeles, where ground now
has been purchased, Mr..
Woodfield explained at a press con-
ference. This will be the 18th hos
pital for crippled children in the
Shrine jurisdiction, he said. There
already are II in the United States,
two in Canada, one in Mexico City
and one on Honolulu. The first con-
home will be built in San
Francisco. adjacent to the Shrine
hospital there.
No Hospital for d. c.
The Shriners already have $45,-
100000 in hospital property and en-
doWments, he said, supported by
members of the Mystic Shrine. More
than 100000 cases have been treated
in these hospitals. and there are

ever been admitted to any of the
hospitals, he said, and no parent
ever pays for services there. The
nearest Shrine hospital is at Phila-
delphia. None is contemplated for
Washington.

my little girls hair until hitting on
this method of fixing after a lot of
experimentation.
/. Gave her home permanent.
2. Parted hair in center almost to
crown, then straight down to just
behind ears. Braid these two Sec
tions, toward front, right at hair
line, about halfway between center
part and ears. Cross the braids,
wrap ends around bobby pins and
sink in opposite braids, or If long
enough, in braid roots. 3. Comb out
back and leave fluffy.
About the home permanent, I
should like to say I used a standard
type obtainable at chain drugstores.
I tried cheaper ones and they would
not take" on the fine hair. Leave
the hair rolled up the exact time
mentioned on the instructions-does
not make too curly. When setting
the hair, after the permanent, !
sometimes make pin curls, holding
curls in place with bobby pins, and
sometimes rolling hair on a pro-
curler. putting in bobby pin, then
slipping out procurler. Both ways
are satisfactory. The permanent
gives the hair some body, takes away
the stringy look and makes it more
manageable. My child's first per-
manent still helps on the hair
dressing after five months, although
not as curly now. To dress up the
hair add a bow on either side at
braid roots, or at the center part on
the crossed braids.

Here and There: One prewar
import unlikely to return in prewar
volume is the dried Zante currant
from Greece, according to the
United States Department of Agri-
culture. From now on bakers and
home cooks will use California cur
rants and raisins in their cookies,
buns, breads and cakes-for Cali
fornia produces huge crops, and
those of Greece have been badly
hit by the war. For centuries Greece
has been the great currant produc-
ing area of the world-even the
name "currant" came from Corinth.
The scarcity and high price of
vanilla beans during the war, which
favored the sale of imitation va
nilla, may have an effect on the
postwar use of the natural extract.
The manufacture of vanillin, an es-
sential ingredient in imitation va
nilla, has made tremendous strides,
and is used to great extent by the
bakery trade-and many housewives
will choose it because of its price
far lower than that of the natural
product. =. The sweet potato, long

Valentine
Pie

Here is a glorified meat pie, espe-
cially designed for your dinner on
Valentine Day. This particular
pie" consists Of braised veal cubes
in tasty brown gravy, topped with a
ring Of heart-shaped biscuits.
After being Drowned in a little fat,
the meat is cooked in covered bak-
ing dish in q very slow oven. The
biscuits are added after the meat
is cooked and the dish returned to
hot oven to bake the biscuits.
For extra decoration, tiny hearts
cut out of pimento are laid on top
Of the biscuits when the dish is
served. This is a very simple trick,
but most effective.

the pan. Add 8 eggs, one at time,
beating like mad after each egg
goes in. Mound with the proper
sized spoons on an ungreased cookie
sheet and bake in hot oven for 20
minutes. Cut heat to moderate and
bake 20 minutes more. Set on a
wire rack Of some kind to cool and
dry.
Now for the filings. For cock
tails, split the baby puffs and fill
them with hot curried crabmeat or
lobster or chicken livers and bacon,
broiled and chopped fine with a
dash Of worcestershire sauce for
seasoning. And, If you feel like
being very lavish, use caviar, mixed
with chopped onion, hard-boiled egg
and lemon juice.
For a wonderful dessert, fill the
puffs with vanilla ice cream and
serve them blanketed with hot
chocolate sauce. (Use whipped
cream instead Of ice cream, if you
like.) A marvellous variation on the
strawberry shortcake theme is to
fill the puffs with strawberry ice
cream and pour crushed fresh
Strawberries all over them. Some
times whipped cream to which a
little rum has been added is "just
right" as filling.
AS for the main dish idea-these
are countless. My favorite is tur-
key or chicken la king tucked into
the puff shell. For meatless din
ner, creamed mushrooms are excel
lent, If they have been seasoned
amply and are rich with juices.
Creamed sweetbreads with mush-
rooms and bacon are good, too, but
here again care must be taken to
give enough flavor by careful sea-
sonings to offset the blandness Of
the puffs and the other mixture.

Mate Good
Drink

That famous South American
drink, yerba mate, has enjoyed
great favor in these northern
elfmes from time to time. Many
people who have learned to like the
subhe aroma and flavor of these
leaves which come from a wild
shrub of the holly family, found
mostly in Southern Brazil, Paraguay
and a part of Argentina, become
confirmed mate drinkers, and refuse
to touch tea or coffee as long as
they can get their precious "herb."
Personally, I always have found
mate most refreshing and when
ever have been able to find it, dur
Ing the war, have enjoyed it as a
morning brew It is best favored
simply with lemon and should be
drunk as hot as possible.
AS matter of fact. I was intro
duced to mate at a very early age,
when my naval officer grandfather
came back from a trip around the
Horn, with frequent stops at South
American ports along the coasts. He
brought with him some mate, mate
gourd and "bombilla" and gave a
demonstration to a fascinated fam
ly. For years the gourd and the
bombilla sat as curios on the parlor
table, along with intricately carved
sharks teeth and other souvenirs"
he had picked up on his travels.
Rainy Sunday afternoons we heard
tales of where he had found each
piece and his stories of the gauchoS
preparing and drinking their mate
on cold mornings before campflres
pitched on the plains remained vivid
memories.
The gourd itself, I recall, was
sized to fit the palm of fairly large
hand, had the tail or stem left on
during the drying process and was
carved elaborately all over its nutty-
brown, highly polished surface. On
one side, toward the top was round
hole, about as big as a quarter and
into this the crushed or drained
mate leaves are put-uSually about 2
tablespoons. Then very hot water
Just not boiling, is poured in. The
gourd is held in the hand while the
mate sleeps. Then one drinks ii
through the bombilla, which is a
silver-plated tube, with "a Dubious
end, perforated with little holes
The bombilla grandpa brought home
was given him, he said, by a big
landowner, for whom it had beer
made especially. 1t was really lovely
real silver, with elaborate band
ings of gold The bulb at the enc
was of gold and the tip of the tube
was banded in ivory, to keep II
cooler to the lips. Drinking mate
today from an ordinary tea cur
doesn't seem half SO glamorous!

RECIPES FOR BABY;

fFron, Mrs. j. E. D., Silper Spring.
In answer to a readers request
several days ago for an easy Gus
tard for a baby or small child that
could be made in a small amount,

One-half to / teaspoon sugar,
egg yolk, n cup milk. Cook over
low flame until custard coats the
spoon (about or minutes). Serve
when cool. Makes enough soft GUS
tard for one meal. This recipe was
given to my sister for her babies
by a well-known children's dietitian
in the Middle West. I have also
used it for my two children and
found that they liked it very much.
also suggest giving the baby
or small child Spanish cream. In
case the reader is not familiar with
it, it is gelatin dessert that
grownups, as well as children, seem
to like. It is easy to make. The
recipe is usually found in standard
cookbooks.

To clean white fur, make a paste

put on with strokes running with
the fur. Let dry and brush out.
When baking with regular flour
substitute la to l cup cornstarch
and your cake will have a finer tex
