TheChef
Says

New housekeepers seem to BE-
confused about whether quick
frozen meats must be defrosted
completely before cooking or not.
The answer is that it is entirely up
to the personal preference of the
cook. Quick-frozen meats may be
cooked from the hard-freeze stage
if certain methods are followed.
But for many cooks it is simpler
to defrost, because then the regu-
lar recipe for fresh meat can be
used.
In the case of an emergency, it
is helpful to know that immediate
cooking works all right. Only re-
member that pieces of meat that
are frozen together, such as chops,
must be defrosted partially to be
taken apart. This is also true of
meat cut in cubes, ground and
so on.
If you do defrost, it is important
to remember that cooking should
start as soon as the meat is thawed
thoroughly to prevent loss of nu-
tritive juices. If you have the
time to defrost the meat in the
refrigerator, that is best, because
.he slow thawing retains more
flavor and juices and the meat will
be more tender. Otherwise, bring
the meat out into the kitchen. let
it thaw at room temperature and
then cook at once.
A trick that hastens the defrost-
ing is to set up an electric fan

This week I am reporting some
of the things they do in the Harry

they will be helpful to many Of
my readers.
think it is interesting that O
girl or woman must have a Job
before she can enter the course.
When I asked Candy Jones why
this was, she answered, In the
first place. getting a job is a step
toward self-conf1dence. Lots OF
our pupils simply did not have
nerve enough to even try for one
until they found they had to in
order to take our course. Then.
too, if they are working they can
put into practice what we teach
them here. Also. many young
women want to take the course so
badly that they will go without
food in order to pay their tuition
and we want to be certain that
our pupils are eating regularly
Perhaps you readers have want
ed to try for a job or have wished
to do something or become accom-
plished in some line, but have not
had the nerve to try. That first
step, that first ice-breaking in ac-
complishing what you wish, will
have a tremendous psychological
effect on you! You will immedi-
ately have more self-conf1dence
and believe in yourself to a great
er extent. Don't day dream, act!
When pupils enter the Conover
course they are Immediately given
a formula for general success.
Here it is:
/. Good health.
2. The ability to get along with
others. Candy chuckled at this
point and said. 1--WE heckle them
constantly about this"
8. The know how" Of fashion
and beauty.
4. Warmth of personality.
This is a formula we could all
use to advantage. If we live in q

warm personality into all of our
contacts and activities, there is
not much left when it comes to
attractiveness and charm. popu-
larity and success.
Here is a waist exercise with q
new twist from the Fluff Depart
ment: Stand with your feet sepa-
rated. Raise your left arm up by
your left ear as you bend forward
and touch the right hand to the
left foot. Stretch and reach.
Raise the trunk and reverse.
This is a variation of another
excellent exercise which is exc
cuted from the same position.

on. Don't do this with large

is too great.

If you wish to cook a hard frozen
roast from the start, cook it like
a defrosted one, but you will re-
quire half to maybe twice as long
as it would take the defrosted one.
Don't cook at high temperature,
which will dry up the outside be-
fore the center of the roast is done.

DISHWASHER.

From L. B. B.. WashingtonJ
To Mrs. r. B. S., Garrett Park:
We have had our dishwasher. for
exactly two years and have had
no serious trouble with it at all.
The one mistake we made was in
stacking the dishes. When a
small load is washed. dishes
should be stacked in front, near
the door. otherwise the water
splashes directly on the door and
leaks out.
A grayish film is also present on
those dishes stacked in the upper
part of the washer. We think the
machine does a perfect job on the
rest of the load, including pots.
silverware and glasses.
We got our dishwasher in De-
cember, 1916, and so far it is
mechanically perfect. Perhaps
those made seven years ago were
not as perfected as those made
now. This might be the cause of
your many mechanical troubles.
A word to those who consider
buying a dishwasher. Be pre-
pared for the very loud noise they
make during the first half hour,
when they are in the washing and
rinsing process. Also, all dishes
should be rinsed before they are
placed in the washer. There is
absolutely no dish breakage in the
washer, as the dishes never move
during the entire process. Be sure
to use only the compound recon-
mended by the firm. Objects OF
mirror finish aluminium, plastic,
or wood should not be placed in
the machine. The water is too hot
for wood and plastics as it is at
sterilizing temperature.

DENMARK.

(Fron1 Mrs. r. M. NJ, AleTGndrtdJ
Some time ago lady from
Arlington requested information
concerning travel in Denmark.
Last summer my husband and I
visited his home in Copenhagen.
I found Denmark a delightful
country. The people are friendly
and most helpful and the scenery
is beautiful. Most Of our time was
spent in Copenhagen itself. as our
chief aim was to visit his people.
However, we did get around the
country quite bit. Train travel
is very reasonable in Denmark, as
most of the railroads are state
owned. They have a very eco
nomica1 plan for any one who
wishes to travel extensively. 1t is
possible to purchase for specific
price a pass which is honored on
any of the state railroads. The
price varies according to the
length of time one expects to use
it. We purchased card for Is
days and the saving was quite
large.
There are tourist bureaus in the
various cities and towns which
have literature giving the places
of interest, the hotels and restau-
rants.
Since a great many things are
still rationed the first thing nee
essary is to register with the ration
board and get the coupons needed.
IF one is to stay with private
family for any length of time they
will receive coupons for meat, fats.
bread or flour, cigarettes, choco-
late and sugar. Wherever you
travel you are required to register
with the police department. II you
are staying at hotels, the manage
ment will supply the necessary
forms to be filled out and turned
in. Sometimes it seems as though
the greatest amount of time ln9
travelling is expended filling out
forms, The rates in hotels are not
extensive according to our stand
ards. They range from 81 on up.
depending on the hotel and type
of accommodations.
The lady was interested as TO-
what type of clothing to take. II
she plans to be travelling most OF
the time. my advice is to limit her
luggage to two pieces that she can
conveniently carry. In some places
porters are available but not
everywhere. Remember that Den
mark is nearly 20 degrees nearer
the North Pole than Washington.
While they do have some warm
DAYS in the summer, 1t never has
extreme heat as We do. recon-
mend that she have at least one
warm suit and topcoat. I have
several gabardine dresses which
were not too warm most OF the
time. One or two print or plain
rayon or silk dresses for dress
occasions would be sufficient, es-
pecially if she is not visiting
friends and being entertained.
The most important part of the
wardrobe I should say is a rain
coat. One of these plastic outfits
that include a hood and can be
folded into small package for
carrying would be very convenient.
I took toe rubbers that fit on my
walking shoes and could go in my
raincoat pocket. With these it
should not be necessary to be in
numbered with an umbrella. Com
Portable shoes are a prerequisite
for walking and sightseeing. If
you plan your outfit so that you
have one pair for dress and good
substantial shoes for hard wear, it
should fill your needs.

COOKING LIVER.

Have read with interest the
various ways of cooking liver but
as yet have not seen my favorite
way. Here it is. Wash liver, spread
with prepared mustard, dredge
with flour. Brown quickly in hot
skillet in plenty of fat. After
browning if there are too many
pieces to fit in the pan, they may
be piled on top of each other.
Season and cover with boiling
water. Cook over low heat for

DIAPER SERVICE,
HEI ,pFIn, HINT


From Mrs. E. J. w.. 5r., Wash
inoton)
To the reader who inquired
about the advantages or disad-
vantages regarding the diaper
wash service I should like to con-
tribute the following information:
We used the diaper service of a
local company. The diapers have
always come back beautifully soft
and white, and most important of
all the baby has never been chafed
a bit. The cost is nominal for IL
diapers a day. Two deliveries a
week are made. each time remov-
ing the soiled diapers and leaving
the clean ones. One other ad-
vantage to this particular COM
pany Is that the same diapers are
returned that were taken away the
previous time, so that the diapers
that were first brought to your
child are used for the entire period
by your baby alone, thus elimi-
mating the possible danger Of con-
tamination from another baby's
diapers. We had the service for
the first two months and it was
certainly worth the money, es-
pecially with the first baby until
you can get into the routine of
caring for the baby the time saved
is invaluable.
Different size bottle nipples
Here is a hint which may be Use
full to some readers with babies:
To distinguish between nipples
with different size holes for diff
ferent foods such as orange juice,
water and milk, I thread a needle
with some colored thread, say
orange for the orange juice and
white for the water. and run it.
through the lip of the nipple, tie
a knot and trim off the loose ends.
This makes the job of preparing
the foods much faster by elimina-
ting the necessity of examining
each nipple for the one you want
when sterilizing them and the
bottles.

I have a beautiful double dam

like to know if there is any way
that the original glossy finish can
be retained, or restored. after
washing. I have been told that
sending it to a commercial laun-
dry would take the life" out of it
completely. I do not think that
ordinary starching is the answer.
