TOKYO LIFE.
From Mr.. T. B., Washington.


In answer to w. F. S., who asked
for information on civilian life In
Toyko: BY all means bring a car!
Japan's mountains and national
parks are enchantingly delightful,
and with ones own transportation
pleasant week ends are always
assured.
Cost of living is much cheaper
than in Washington, as purchases
of foodstuffs are possible at PXs.
Government housing is comfortable;
furniture should be taken; the Gov
eminent pays for the transporta-
ton. Electricity is 100-100 volts,
with both SO and go cycles. Leave
chinaware behind, to avoid break
age; good quality china is plentiful
and cheap. Most Government houses
are equipped with refrigerators;
however, the purchase of one to
take abroad would be wise invest
ment. Electric heaters would come
in handy in the winter.
Except for formal dresses, moth
ing extravagant in the line OF
clothes would be necessary. Plenty
of textiles in Japan: bring a sew
ing machine and patterns. Because
of the uncertainty of the current,
that is, whether one would be To-
Gated in an area that had so cycle
or so cycle current, nonelectric
machine would be best. And a fur
coat would be handy in winter. IT
purchase of a fur coat is contem-
plated, and the voyage is via Shang-
hai, really good buy can be made
there lie, Shanghai.
Medical and dental care are as
good as can be found anywhere at
any Army base. However, there
usually is no provision for prosthetlc
dental care for civilians.

PARTY GAMES?
from Mrs. E. w., Washington
I am planning a surprise party
for my husband August 10 and I am
lost for entertainment. We are all
in our 2Os but there isn't enough
room for dancing and I don't care
to play any card games. Could you
suggest some games that would be
fun?
ICE CREAM.
From Mrs. D. H. r,
West Palm Beach,
For Mrs. J. N. R., Lexington Park:
Ice cream somewhat misnamed
when called sherber) One pack
age of lime jello, l cup hot water,
dissolve, let cool. Juice 2 lemons,
grated rind, add to jello. Dissolve
1h cups sugar in one quart OF milk,
and be sure every bit is dissolved
Add the sugar and milk dissolved
thoroughly to the first mixture or
jello. Trick is to have larger con-
tainer for the jello, because the
milk mixture has to be turned into
the jello. I felt l cup sugar was
enough and I increased the lemon
Juice (using limes). A joy not to
have to stir at any time. Just put
in tray and freeze.
am told no other flavor of jello
will do. Sounds odd to me.

WATERMELON RIND PICKLE?
From Mrs. H. L. W., Washington
Does any one know recipe for
watermelon rind pickle using oil of
Glove and oil of cinnamon instead
of whole cloves and cinnamon bark?
I saw such a recipe some years ago.
The pickle was beautifully light in
color. Since the oils are strong I
don't want my pickle to taste like
toothache drops or I would do a
little experimenting myself.

SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA.
from w. B. M, Washington

from W. q. M, WuSfttbytCHc
AS I spent 4 months in Los
Angeles last winter, from November
18th to March 10th, I felt I would
like to answer your question as to
what to take with you among the
articles you mention.
According to my experience, none
of the things you mentioned should
be discarded. I had bought warm
wool coat so as not to take my fu1
coat, but my grandson wrote me
TO bring my fur coat and my down
comfort, and I was surely glad
had them. OF course last winter
was an unusually cold winter FOL
California, but always the evenings
we're cold enough to make my ful
coat comfortable. Daytimes
wore my cloth coat and on very
warm days a spring coat or jacket
l slept under two all-woo
blankets and my down comfort
every night. They turned off theil
gas heat at night so the house was
really cold with all the windows
closed! Many days you will need
your winter coats and husband
overcoats. Also the lawn mower il
you have a lawn, for the grass
grows fast. I wouldn't know about
broadloom rugs though I would
prefer them to bare floors in Winter
and I believe you would be glad
x,o,, tool> fho,,o o1nno
Fortunately, I took two wool
dresses and sweaters, and wore
them constantly. The thin dresses
I had expected to wear, were never
unpacked.
About household articles, etc
What you have is probably better
than you can buy at the present
time, but of course moving SO far
is expensive, too,
You will love the climate and II
you have a car, you will find Lille
very pleasant. The distances are
so great don't know how one could
manage without a car.

CAKE RECIPES?
from Mrs. r. B., WGshington.)
Am writing concerning the letter
Mrs. H. w. S., Alexandria, sent in
about her "one-bowl" cake method
and want to say I've used it long
time, too. She offered to give to
any one who would contact her some
excellent one-bowl cake recipes. l
would like very much to have these,
especially a good devils food recipe
made very good cakes until I was
married and moved to the Rockies
There found the recipes had to be
changed and had gotten so that once
again could make good ones, when
we moved to Washington and my
cakes are now terrible again.
SUGGESTION.
from Mrs. L. P, Takonla Park
In answer to Mrs. D. B. T., Wash
ington: I would like to say a word
of help about diapers. I want to
say -four bags and sacks are fine
for diapers. They are SO soft and
wash as white as birdseye. You
can buy. them at any bakery, they
do not cost lot. They wear we'll
You can get them by the dozen
then you can make them up your
self.

Another sos to RICH! Would
some one tell me how to grow phllo-
dendrons? I purchased four or five
healthy young plants which have
all died Except one) after a couple
of months. Before I kill this one

advice about the kind of soil to use,
how frequently to water, etc. Should
this plant have sun or do they
thrive best in darker places?

PICNIC SUGGESTIONS.
From M. E. NJ, WaShingtonJ
For Mrs. E. K. Washington, who
wanted picnic suggestions: A bread
saving, wasteless-sandwich way is
to use an open-face sandwich loaf
Line by-5-by-212 Inch loaf pan witt
waxed paper large enough to fold
over the sandwich loaf. When the
pan is filled it holds IL open sand
witches. Soften pimiento cheese or
peanut butter with top or evap-
Grated milk. Beat creamy for thick
spreading, especially nice on rye
bread. Then spread with potted
meat or minced leftover homemade
spread. Season with chopped pickle,
nuts. Stand the sandwiches up in
the loaf pan with the bread side
next to the spread. Then fold waXed
paper over to completely cover loaf
until serving time. 1t can be pre-
pared several hours ahead and is
easier to carry than individually
wrapped sandwiches. Shredded cab
bage and carrots just moistened
with dressing rolled up in lettuce
leaves and fastened with tooth
picks makes a nice crisp bite that
can be chilled in the refrigerator
ahead of time, too.

FERNS?
From Mrs. L. L. H.. Wash'ngtonJ
would like information on keep
ing ferns in the house. How often,
and how much, should a ported
fern be watered; how often should
it be repotted. and how deep should
the root tops be below the earth
in the pot? I have a sword fern
and the roots look as if they were
above ground; the fern was just re-
Gently bought and yet already many
of the fronds have turned brown
and died and I am wondering what
the cause is. I do not know why
the little growing ends seem to die,
as I am very careful not to touch
them.
