BUCKWHEAT CAKES?
From Mrs. r. G. X.
Colonial Beach,
I wonder if some reader could give
the recipe for old-fashioned buck
wheat griddle cakes, the kind that
is stirred up and "set" the night
before to raise whole buckwheat
-four being used) something added
in the morning and stirred again,
lust before baking. Both my hus-
band and I have memories OF those
CAKES, and I was able to find old
fashioned buckwheat flour at a
country mill, but for the life OF me,
I can't remember how they were
done, and haven't found the recipe
in modern cook books.
SPOTTED GLASS?
CHESTNUT DRESSING?
(Frorn X. X, WashingtonJ
During the summer the mirror
ON my dresser, also the glass cover
ing it, have become badly spotted.
I have tried the new pink liquid
glass wax, turpentine, vinegar,
Javelle water and everything else I
could think of but have had no luck.
The only thing can think OF as
causing this would be by the spray
ing of D. D. T. or such.
Has any one else had this expert
ence and been able to remedy 1t?
l would also like favorite
chestnut dressing for turkey.
TO MAKE MANS TIE?
From Mrs. NJ. c., Wdshington.)
I am very anxious to know how to
make a mans tie without it having
that homemade" look. Will some
one tell me where 7 can get this
information?
HOUSE BLESSING.
From G.. o. O., Mount Rdtnter.)
God bless the corners of this house
And be the Intel blest;
And bless the hearth. and bless the board
ana ans sess Sii he e'da dooF sst q opens wide
To stranger as to kim;
And bless each crystal window pane
That lets the starlisht IN;
And bless the roof-tree overhead
And every sturdy wall:
The peace Of nan. the peace of God.
| hope this is the one, asked for
several weeks ago by one OF our
RCH readers. I neglected to keep
the initials. This was given to me
10 years ago as a wall hanging for
INV future home. Yes. I have had
that home now for the past two
wears! kept the poem in my
trunk for 8 years. I am very 1ond
OF it.
NURSERY SCHOOL?
From N. C. D., ArlingtonJ
We wonder if any of your read
ers can help us locate a co-opera-
tive nursery school near Colonial
Village or elsewhere in Clarendon
where transportation is furnished
and half a day school is provided.
Our daughter is 212 and we would
like to start her in school in Janu-
ary. We know of the Highlands
Cooperative Nursery, but would ap-
preciate learning of any other.
