ItAs funny how you think about
person after they've died; your i'm
pressions change and you suddenly
find yourself remembering the life
things they did or said You say.
Remember the time we did She
said Weren't we burned up!"
And SO it goes, Barbara is dead.
AS I write this now it seems al
most sacrilegious, for I believe in
heaven. and I believe that some
where in Eternity Barbara is looking
down and reading the words:
Barbara is dead And I feel: How
does she think of them? Should I
witness a sort of shame in writing
this, to take advantage Of q per-
sons soul to put a few words down
on paper?
AS these sentences tumble out.
can feel or think feel hole being
bored at the back of my neck, as if
I were being stared at. hard, by a
pair Of eyes. Until a short time
ago, I used to think of death as
something quite beyond my reach.
something that was sad and tragic
in books, something that happened
to old people of whom it was always
said: "Ah well. she's better off
where she is" This was much diff
ferent. This was my friend, Bar
bara. She was II.
The last time I saw Barbara was
at sorority meeting. She was vi
vacious and boisterous as always
in pair of dark slacks Her hair
was long, just below her shoulders,
not short and close to her head as
was the rest of the girls. Her eyes
were big, black and so very dark,
and she was chewing gum, crack
ing it with every other breath I
remember someone telling her she
looked like a street girl with her
mouth going a mile a minute but
she only laughed some more.
We were happy then; we planned
our coming dance with Joyous eX-
pectation, paid dues, delighted in
seeing people we hadn't seen for
some weeks and decided to lecture
the pledges, who had been acting
very dumb and naive. at the next
meeting. When we left, we lust
yelled hasty $50 long" never
dreaming that we wouldn't see Bar
bara again. At that same time the
next week, she was in the isolation
ward at local hospital. We prayed
for her, half-heartedly, so sure that,
of course, she would get better.
People we knew so well and so young
never died. They always recovered.
There were few of us, Lois, Pau
line, Marlene, and I, her closet
friends who wanted more than any,
thing to see her. 1t was impossible,
the hospital said; she was in isola-
ton. But we went anyway.
1t was Friday, crisp cold sunny
Friday in December. The trees
were bare and the streets quiet,
for the children were at school. The
night before, we learned that Bar
bara had contracted pneumonia and
somehow we just couldn't seem to
concentrate on our schoolWork. So
we went to the hospital. Lois came
by for me in the car about nine,
and we picked up the other girls.
1t was very cold, or at least seemed
so, and the sun wasn't warm. 1t
seemed like a lump of cold, nard
gold. Yes, that's the word to ex-
plain it . hard I hated to have
the sun on me that morning.
Driving to the hospital was
dull, quiet affair. It wasn't at all
like the noisy Saturday afternoon
rides we used to take almost reli-
giously. No one spoke except Lois,
who said Damn" when a car, going
over the speed limit, brushed
nervously near us.
We parked on O vacant lot and

CHINESE FRIED RICE.

fF'rom Mrs. G. G. O., Alexandria ~
Miss H. H. H., Washington,
This is an authentic Chinese
recipe taken from Madame
Chang Yep's Cookbook. Chinese
fried rice: It serves from 8 to 5
persons. Three cups cold steamed
rice. / cup chopped meat. either
roast beef or pork, 5 pieces bacon
(slices), S eggs, ! green pepper, /
stalk celery. / small onion or
green onions, 3 tablespoons
Chinese soy sauce, " dozen white
mushrooms. teaspoon salt. bit
of pepper and 5 tablespoons vege-
table oil. Cut the green pepper
onion and celery small. Put
chopped bacon in a pan and f4sat.
When the bacon is brown, add
celery, onion and pepper. Fry for
5 minutes. Add the cold rice
stirring well with a big fork. Last
of all. break the eggs into the yice,
mix well until the eggs are cooked
Chicken, lobster and crabmeat
can be fried with rice in the same
manner. Always use vegetable
oil in preparing Chinese food as
any other composition, such as
lard or olive oil ,deteriorates the
delicious flavor of Chinese food.
The mustard sauce served in
Chinese restaurants is a mixture
of English mustard and water, in
a very thin consistency. Some
times a few tablespoons of
ketchup are put in a sauce dish
with the English mustard in the
center. This is used to dip fried
shrimp and Chinese roast pork.

MATTRESS?

from Mrs. L. N. B.. WaShington.J
Your suggestions have been Of
much nelp to me from time to
time and now I would like infor-
nation concerning firm mat
tress? My first thought is a spun
rubber one, but it has been said
that they would be softer than
we want. judging from the ones
we have at present. Is a recon-
ditioned mattress tco much of a
risk?
One little hint on the auto
matte defroster. If you will re.
move the ice try at night, it will
hasten the -defrosting process. In
the morning replace it. Ice cream
will have a tendency to remain
firm if you will put it in one of
those special bags which are sup
piled at the stores when you buy
the ice cream. Put the tray con-
tanning the ice cream in the bag.
clipping it together with clothes
pins at night when you remove
the ice trays. Remove the bag
when you replace the ice trays.
