! from Mrs. E. B. S., Washington J
For Mrs. A. L. v. who requested
suggestions for cold dishes: Purchase
l pound shank meat and knuckle
bone. Cut meat in 1-inch cubes,
boil with bone and water to cover,
for IL to hours, slowly. When
cool, shred the meat with a knife
and fork. There should still be quite
bit of water. Return to pan with
teaspoon plain gelatin, dissolved.
Bring to boil and pour into in
dividual custard cups or loaf pan.
Put in refrigerator to cool. This
will be a lovely jellied main dish
for dinner. I forgot, salt and lots
of pepper.
Also here is a good meat loaf If
you can get smoked ham. One

Here is how to make Italian Pizza.
One yeast cake, 4 cup lukewarm
water, l teaspoon sugar, 2 teaspoons
salt, 2 tablespoons shortening, 2
cups boiling water, 6 (about) cups
sifted all-purpose flour.
Soften yeast in lukewarm water.
Put sugar, salt, shortening and boil
ing water in large> bowl and stir
till sugar is dissolved. Cool to luke
warm. Add yeast. Add about half
the flour and beat till smooth. Add
enough remaining flour to give a
soft dough. Knead on slightly
Toured board till smooth. Divide
dough into siXths and knead each
piece into ball. Pat out and then,
holding it on the left hand, stretch
gently with the right and shape to
fit a 9-inch cake pan. Place in
creased pan and press up around
edges, so dough will not shrink from
par. The slightly thick rim keeps
the filling from running over edge
during baking. Let rise at room
temperature about IS minutes. Ar
