POEM ABOUT ALTURAS?
QUERY?
(From Mrs. F. c., Wnshington.)
I understand a poem has been
written about the Hotel Alturas.
would like to read it in the Clearing
House as I used to room at Alturas.
Will some one please send it in?
Also, will some one please tell me
where I can purchase a travelling
case with compartments for comb,
brush, toothbrush, toothpaste, soap,
ETC.?
STORING BABY CLOTHES.
TWO QUERIES?
(Front Mrs. J. v. K, Greenbelt.)
Would some of your readers ad-
wise me how they packed and
stored away their infants clothes?
My baby is now l year old and
has outgrown good many clothes.
I have no trunk or cedar chest, so
will have to use packing boxes for
everything, including baby blankets.
Also what wardrobe would you
advise for him for his second
spring and summer?
Could some one please give me
the secret of roasting potatoes in
the electric oven, along with the
meat? I've tried putting small po-
tatoes in an hour before the meat
Is cooked and baste, but they are
never cooked.
AMUSING BOYS.
(From Mrs. E. P. M, Arlington.)
To Mrs. r. N. L., who needs rainy
day activities for small boys: There
Is a series of books put out by Hart
Publishing Co., New York 10, N. Y,
called the Treasury Series" The
books cover the ages 2 to IL and are
immeasurably useful for rainy days
and sick days. She could use "A
Treasury of Play Ideas for Tiny
Tots" 2 to 6. -+.-.-
MEAT BUYING.
(From B. NJ. L., SilDer Spring.)
Suggestions regarding meat buy
ing; Buy a large rump or shoulder
beef roast and have a pound or two
ground to use for hamburgers, much
better flavor and less expensive than
round. steak. Another meal can be
had from the same roast by cut
ting thin slices and cooking like
cubed steaks. Use the rest Of the
roast another day for beef and veg
etable stew or pot roast.
A leg of veal can be roasted, or
cut in cubes and used for stew or
chop suey.
A small meat saw will soon pay
for itself. Buy leg of lamb and cut
steaks off and broil them, just as
good as lamb chops. The rest Of
the leg of lamb can be roasted.
Half a ham can be bought and q
steak or two cut from it.
Buy a loin pork roast and cut into
chops.

CHOCOLATE CAKE?

fFrom X. T., Washington.
This week on Walter OKeef's
program I heard a woman tell
about her famous chocolate cake
made with tomato soup. She said
it was moist and luscious. I have
never heard of one, have you? She
said she also made the old-time
spice one. I~know about that one.
VIII you ask IN your column for the
one made with chocolate?

Cranberries

are also delicious with any meat

Pedestrians. are thus warned that
they have a double-duty safety job
as they walk along the highways
and the city streets.
Pedestrian safety is the Novem-
Der theme of the Delaware Safety
Council traffic safety program, and
Frank ]. Horty, President, pointed
out the Importance of being alert
when you are walking.
''The driver has big Joo TO do
to handle his car safely, watch out
for other cars on the road and still
be careful of pedestrians" he said.
Pedestrians must watch out for
their own safety and help take
some of this load from the drivers
shoulders.
This is, especially true at this
time of the year, for the National
Safety Council tells us that dark

ness increases pedestrian hazards
and winter months mean earlier
darkness"
Here are some safety tips for
pedestrians to follow, according to
Mr.. Horty:
1. Do not walk behind or in front
of a street car or bus Immediately
after alighting; take time to be
safe.
2. While crossing a street, don't
read a newspaper, or obscure youl
view with an umbrella or package
3. Use painted crosswalks, safe
ty islands and other safeguards.
4. Never run into or play in thu
street. Don't make sudden dashei
or steps in the street.
5. Don't depend on the motoris
seeing you at night. Wear light
colored clothing or something tha
will reflect light.
6. Where there are no sidewalks
walk on the left side of the road
way, facing traffic.

HE clock has had the privilege
of striking midnight and being
the first to announce the arrival Of
the New Year for only about six cen
turles. Before that, man measured
the hours in several different ways.
Primitive man measured the
length Of a day by the moving
shadows which reflected the sun $
daily course across the heavens.
The first tinepiece was probably a
pole and stone-the pole TO cast a
shadow and the stone to mark where
the shadow fell when the sun was
highest.
AS man became more accus-
toned to regulating his activities
according to specific intervals Of
time, he devised the ''water-thief, !"
the hourglass, and finally the me-
chanical clock.
Even the simplest 'water-thief"
measured time accurately because
a regular interval of time passed
between the moment it was filed
and the moment it became, empty
and this interval could be timed by
the sun.
The hourglass was better than
the "water-thief'' because it was
cheaper, it would not freeze or spill
and it did not require refilling.
Real, mechanically operated
clocks were not constructed un-
til the thirteenth century. The word
o'clock" has been derived from the
French "cloche,'' which means bell,
and probably owes its connection
with tinekeeping to the custom of
ringing bells to announce the pass
ing of the hours.

Open House Once
Marked Holiday

s'Open House" on New Years Day
was introduced into this country by
the Dutch who settled in New
Amsterdam and were accustomed
to receive their friends who dropped
in to offer the compliments of the
day. Such calls were very informal,
made and received in the spirit of
friendship and sociability; refresh
ments appropriately consisted Of
homemade snacks and centered
around large bowl of punch, made
according to the hosts favorite re-
cipe.
The custom grew with the country
and, eventually, the nation--or the
increasingly populous communities
thereof-outgrew the custom. Dur
ing the latter part of the nineteenth
century, it was customary for those
who intended to receive their friends
and acquaintance to send "at
home" notices to the newspapers
so that would-be callers might plan
accordingly.
The majority of such calls were

sociability which had given impetus
to the custom in the first place.
However, human nature being what
it is, receptions were often Crashed"
by strangers attracted by the pros
pect of free punch; likewise, hosts
and hostesses were frequently en-
barrassed by guests who, making
their seventh or eighth call, arrived
in excessively boisterous or mellow
moods.
These abuses contributed to the
abandonment of the publically an
nounced "open house" and revival of
the very informal New Years call
exchanged only among intimates
toasting the New Year around
very private bowl of punch.
