Joe Doak is a civil service en-
ployee of the government. the head
Of a small department in one Of
the many bureaus. He wanted a
raise. The only way he could get
one was to increase the number
of employees in his small depart

do, but he got the raise he wanted
by adding 10 clerks to the payroll.
In the government service you get

UTENSILS;
STRAWBERRY PIE:
MEATIOAF.

(Fron, Miss H. J. L., WashingtonJ
To Mrs. R. w. B., Bethesda: I
have a number of pieces of water
less aluminium, very heavy gauge,
and have had wonderful success
with it. Mine has the silver seal
covers and as soon as the foods are
hot enough to start steam around
the covers the fire should be low
cred to the very smallest possible
heat CONSTANT with maintaining
the blue blaze with gas). I do not
add water to either vegetables,
fruits or meats, excepting only
dried fruit or vegetables or leg
umes. I have never had burned
foods, unless, of course they are
allowed to cook too long. All the
food values, and flavor are in
the foods rather than the water
in which they are usually cooked.
Especially commented on, have
been my carrots and sweet potatoes
which taste as though sugar had
been added to them. I have even
baked an angel food cake on top
of the stove in my roaster. Apple
sauce has an altogether different
taste when cooked in this way.
To Mrs. E. M. G., Washington:
I would suggest aluminium every
time. They are easy to keep
clean, they distribute heat evenly
and do not burn as has been my
experience. especially with the
thinner metals. There are no
chips to get into foods and there
is almost no wear out to them. ]
have some kettles that were bought
and used since the end of the
first World War. I assure you
they have had extensive use and
are still good for many more
years service.
Here are two strawberry pie
recipes for Mrs. T. c., Washington

ANSWERS AND REQUESTS.
(From Mrs. r. A. H..
Louisville, KyJ

For Mrs. A. o. c., Arlington:
When making your tapioca, try
beating your egg whites not quite
so stiff, and fold your hot mixture
into the tapioca mixture.
To get badly soiled white baby
shoes cleaned almost like new, rub
them with rubbing alcohol on a
soft cloth, and then apply the
regular white polish.
To my husband must go the
credit for this suggestion: When
taking clothes down from the line,
60 quickly down the line remov-
ing every other clothespin; then,
as you take the clothes down, you
don't have your hands so full OF
pins and can handle the clothes
more quickly and easily.
Now. two baby suggestions:
First, for mothers whose space is
limited I'd like to recommend
most highly the little mina-bath
in place of the conventional bath
inette. It's actually a e-top
bathinette, though I use mine in
the tub. It's rubber tub of sheet
ing attached to folding tubular
metal frame which is small
enough to store behind the bath
room door. 1t has hammock IN
which to put baby but no dressing
table top. Wish I had had one
like it for my first two children
instead of the bathinette I did
have.
Second, did you know you can
sterilize your baby's water and
orange juice bottles and boil his
water at the same time in your
pressure cooker? This is espe-
cially handy for the nursing
mother who has the little 4-ounce
bottles for water and juice. Wash
your bottles, fill with water. put
the cap on loosely and cook" for
10 minutes, letting pressure go
down by itself at finish. Boil nip
pies separately for three minutes
in open saucepan, put in bottles
when removed from cooker, and
you're all done.
Lastly, a request: I'd appre-
ciate simple cottage cheese reci-
pes. such as cottage cheese pan
cakes, etc.

BACON FAT SPOTS?

dress spots made by bacon fat?
The dress was washed immedi-
ately in warm, mild soapy water,
but the spots are as prominent as

Senator Brewster, Republican,
Of Maine and Representative Rich

tie or no opposition in the United

Senator Brewster and Mr.. Rich
ards are among q group of Con-
gresspen on q private visit to
Spain. They expect to meet
Generalissimo Franco.
Mr.. Richards, spokesman for
the group, told q news conference
it was absurd and illogical for
the United States to give money
to countries in the same orbit as
Spain ahd give nothing to Spain. /"
"The United States needs Spain
and Spain needs the United States
for Spain undoubtedly is of real
value in the economic and military
aspect Of the world." Mr.. Richards
said. ss
Senator Brewster told the news
men his visit to eight European
countries in eight days had shown
that Europe has improved con-
siderably in the past year, both
morally and In the reconstruction
Of her war damages"
Mr.. Richards said the legislators
had come to Spain ito find out
for ourselves whether there is
freedom Of religion in Spain" He
said one reason there was unfav-
orable opinion abroad against
Generalissimo Frances regime
was because "the great majority
is certain there is no freedom Of
religion" here.
