mash and thin the cheese to a
creamy whipped consistency with
milk, stirring In onion salt or onion
juice to taste. It should be thin
enough to scoop up easily on potato
chips, but not runny. As for the
amount of onion fiavoring, that
depends on individual preference,
but you do want to add enough so
as to know its there. I have never
used onion juice 50 don't know
about it, but am always surprised
to find how much onion salt one
package of cheese takes. Chopped
chives in the cheese should be good,
too, as well as colorful

EXPENSES TO CALIFORNIA;
CLEANING GLASSES.
From Mrs. !. Z. M, Washington )
To Mrs. H. J. B., Mclean: Two
years ago we drove to California for
a month, and our expenses were not
too great. We stopped in some WON
derful cottages, and the West has
some nice ones, for 50 per night.
We had an 8-cylinder car, and our
gas and oil one way cost $28. Our
meals were inexpensive also, but
we did no cooking.
I have used chlorine bleach and
not water for glasses that are dis
colored, and then rinsed them well.
