probably wouldn't anyhow. SO you

When you prepare your first
oyster dinner keep in mind that
this food of -the-sea doesn't take
kindly to overlooking. The Fish
cry Council passes along these tips
for you TO paste in your cookbook:
Oyster steWs are always best when
cooked over water. This means
the stew pan should be placed in
a larger pan which contains the
water. Fried oysters need just one
minute of frying on each side. AL
ways add oysters to any cooked
dish as the last ingredient.
HERE AND THERE: To show
what a laborious process it was to
make ice cream in the early his
tory of our country just read
through this recipe that was pub
Iished in the year 1919. 1t will
give you an idea of the trouble
they went through to serve this
luxury food. The making of ice
cream was called "iceing" and a
recipe of the period follows: ITO
Prepare Ice for Iceing: Get a few
pounds of ice, break it almost to
powder, throw large handful
and a half of salt among 1t. You
must prepare it in part OF the
house where as little of the warm
air comes as you can possible
contrive. The ice. and salt being
in bucket, put your cream into
an ice-pot. and cover it; immerse
it in the ice. and draw that round
the pot, so as to touch every pos
sible part. In a few minutes put
a spatula or spoon in. and stir it
we'll, removing the parts that ice
round the edges to the centre. If
the ice cream be in form, shut
the bottom close, and move the
whole in the ice, as you cannot use
a spoon to that without danger of
waste. There should be holes in
the bucket to let off the ice as it
thaws." Can you imagine your
self going to all that work for a
dish of ice cream in these times?

So great was the interest last
year in the classes Nine. Irene
Beran conducted at the YMCA in
French and European cooking
that another series is scheduled
for this fall. The classes will be-
gin the first week in October but
registration started this week and
will continue until the classes are
filled.
Since they like to keep the en-
rollment of each class under 20,
they have made arrangements for
four morning and two evening
classes. This should give every
one who is interested a chance to
fit the hours into their schedule.
The evening classes are held on
Monday and Thursday from to
9:15 pm; the daytime classes will
be held Tuesday, Wednesday,
Thursday and Friday mornings
from 1915 to 1890 am. These
lessons attracted so much atten-
ton last year suggest you regis
ter early if you want to be sure of
a place. The outline of the cook
ing lessons include such intriguing
dishes as Gugelhupf (Viennoise) I,
Oeufs Croustee, Gateau en- Tran
che and Mousse au Chocolat. An
other dish she has up her sleeve
is an omelet made without eggs!
I can't even give you hint on
how this is accomplished as Nine.
Beran wouldn't disclose her secret.
She's saving it for her classes.
Up and down the East and West
Coasts oystermen are a busy lot
these days longing and dredging
oysters in readiness for the new
season, which is just getting un-
derday. According to reports from
the Fish and Wildlife Service of
the Department Of the Interior,
we can look forward to a plentiful
supply of this succulent food in
the "R" months ahead. Back in
July and August (remember) +,
when we were willing under the
intense heat, the oyster farmers
were going around with happy
smiles on their faces as they con-
templated the heavy "set' they
were getting from their under
water brood. 1t seems that oys-
ters must have warm water for an
effective spawning period. AS you
recall only too well. they had it,
and how!
Time was when oysters were so
abundant that the first settlers
along the Atlantic Coast thought
the supply was inexhaustible.
However, through over-exploita-
ton of these natural beds. 1t
gradually became necessary to
plant artificial oyster beds in
order to supply the growing market
demands. They refer to this in
dustry as oyster culture" and the
oyster culturists have become
known as'"farmers of the sea-"
You'll soon be serving oysters
for many reasons. First, because
they are so universally popular;
second, because they are so easy to
prepare and serve and there is no
waste: third, they are an excellent
source Of the protective nutrients.
