homes. One Of the chief causes of
this appalling total is rubbish, such
as old boxes, paper, cloths and other
debris. Waste paper baskets are

Apple Desserts

Autumn is apple time. when the
wealth of fruits come tumbling
from the trees to market and the
evenings are crisp enough to war
rant a hearty dessert.
A New England favorite is apple
tapioca-not the pallid, sticky kind
which may have revolted you when
you were a child, but a bowlful OF
senailiquid, redolent Of all sorts OF
spices, hiding quarters of tender
apple in it's golden brown depths.
Soak "a cup OF pearl tapioca in 2
cups water overnight. CYou can't
make the real apple tapioca with the
small, quick-cooking kind) Then
put the tapioca over direct heat and
let it cook until it is Transparent
about 20 minutes should be enough
Season with 4 teaspoon salt, cinna-
mon, ginger, nutmeg and cloves to
tastes. (Go lightest on the cloves)
Have ready small or medium
apples, peeled and quartered, in the
bottom of baking dish, with Y
cup of sugar sifted over them. Pour
the tapioca over the apples and
bake in a moderate oven until the
apples are tender. This will take
around As minutes.
Serve hot, with cream. If you live
In a place where you can get maple
sugar, shave this over the apples
instead of plain sugar and you'll
have something plenty super.
Another New England favorite-
and an old-timer, too-is Yankee

rather tart firm apples, slice them
thin and put them in a shallow
creased baking dish. Mix together

nut shells these were put in the
oven to heat we'll and served piping
hot, with the top slices replaced as

With this dish we had rice, Of
course. A mixed green salad was
served on the side as concession
to local taste.
Later 1t occurred TO me that q
pretty wonderful curried chicken
could be served in coconut shells,
for as you know some very special
curries call for coconut In their
makeup. The pineapple would be
omitted, Of course, and the curried
chicken would be made as usual,
but the heating through in the
shells would lend subtle flavor
that would be excellent and most
exotic.
In serving the curry the grated
coconut would be omitted from the
customary accompaniment Of
chopped peanuts, Bombay duck,
minced hard-cooked egg, etc. The
rice, naturally, is obligatory with

Report to the Housewife

Prowling through the Fifth and
z Street Market this morning, re-
called the days of plenty, when a
familiar figure there was the late
Capt. John Edie, whose will recently
hit the headlines when it was dis
closed he had left a large sum to
his housekeeper for the care of his
family of cats. Every morning the
captain could be seen wandering up
and down the aisles of the market,
q large basket on his arm, followed
by his chauffeur bearing another
basket. Into the baskets went deli
cacies for the captains own table
he was famous gourmet-and then
Capt. Edie would turn his attention
to the real business of the morning
the purchase of food for the cats.
This was long and very meticulous
procedure, and the relative merits of
liver as sold by certain dealers was
q matter of serious concern. When
the cats menus had been fully ar
ranged and purchased, the captain
and the chauffeur would head for
home-dignity and satisfaction in
every line of their departing backs.
Alas, for the captains marketing
tours today! Both his table and the
fare of his cats would take little
time in selecting! Bare butcher
cases and empty iceboxes would greet
him everywhere-and the kitties
would have to make do with a bit of
fish-and like it, even as you and I.
The situation is really SOME
THING. A few lucky and early
shoppers may find a little meat here
and there in some markets, but
supplies are so low that in most in
stances, one will be fortunate to cart
home little luncheon or sandwich
meat, or a small piece of veal.
Therell be plenty of frying chick
ems around-but at a price that
hurts. Some ducks and turkeys
ditto. Eggs, though plentiful, will
be higher in price.
Whitefish, yellow pike, hahbut and
salmon are rather special items in
the fish line Along with them we
find the usual butterf1sh, spots,
lIOut, IOChllSll dllu 1ldOuOCk anu
rosefsh fillets. All kinds of crab
meat will be available, and there
should be plenty of cooked and raw
shrimp, hard crabs, oysters, Holsters,
scallops and clans.
Peas we're scarce and poor during
the early part of the week, but
dealers were hopeful they would i'm
prove in time for the week end buy
ing. Supplies of snap beans, cab
bage celery, lettuce, onions, white
and sweet potatoes, tomatoes and
spinach are liberal. (The recent
humid weather may effect the last
mentioned by the time you go to
market.) There seem to be adequate
quantities of squash, broccoli, cauli-
flower, brussels sprouts, watercress,
and various greens such as kale,
turnip tops and collards. (But no
fat back to cook with themD
Grapes are all over the place,

Hawaiian Dish
By The Chef

The other evening I went to a
Hawaiian dinner. A group of my
friends have decided once month
to give a foreign" dinner of some
kind-an amusing idea at that.
I'll report them to you as they
come along.
The piece de resistance at this
party was Hawaiian chicken. Just
how authentic a dish this is I'm
not prepared to say. 1t may well
be favorite in the islands or it
may have come out Of some cook
book that uses lot of imagination
in offering up foreign" recipes.
Anyway, it was good and it was
served in coconuts, which gave it
quite a dash and possibly a bit of
added flavor.
The tops were cut off the Coco
nuts and reserved for later use.
Of you've ever tried mangling q
fresh coconut you'll appreciate that
the hard work that went into this
dishD A small slice was cut of
the bottom, too, so that the shell
could stand on its own feet, as it
were. The coconut hollow was
filled with this:
Two cups Of scalded milk were
added to 2 tablespoons butter,
blende3 with 4 tablespoons Of -four
until smooth. This mixture was
cooked until thickened, and ther
about 2 cups cooked breast oi
chicken, cut in cubes were added
together with a cup of fresh pine
apple. The pineapple pieces were
cut the same size as the chicken
The mixture was seasoned will
salt, pepper and cayenne and al

(From Mrs. X. r. L., Washington. J

why not serve cooked cucumbers
for a change? They have a very
refreshing quality If prepared in this
way:
Peel a couple of cukes and dice
them. You ought to have enough
to make cupfuls. Cook in just
a little boiling water in a saucepan
with a tight-fitting lid until tender.
Ten minutes should do.
Now, don't drain off the cooking
water. Add a cup of sour cream
