Puffed Crackers

1t has been a custom Of my
Boston relations to serve puffed
crackers with soup at the begin
ming of a formal dinner. 1t was
an event, in my very young days,
to be slipped couple of these in
the nursery by an indulgent maid,
when a feast was afoot.
Seek out those round, thick
crackers known in various sections
as Boston or st. Johnsbury crack
ers. and let them soak in a shallow
dish in ice water until they are
thoroughly wet-at least Is min
IuteS.
Then, with a broad spatula,
transfer the wet crackers to a
creased baking sheet, dot the CEN
ters with a small piece of butter
or margarine. Bake in a very hot
oven Cat least 500 degrees) for
about 20 minutes; the crackers
will puff and swell. Then lower
the temperature to 375 degrees,
and cook until crackers are deli
cately Drowned. Serve hot, wrap

We Americans have a store OF
stock Observation-Disclosures, hen
pecked husbands. absent-minded
professors, etc.-which never seem
to get stale. But we don't consider
them a serious reflection Of our
selves or our society.
However, one of these jokes has
taken hold abroad as a genuine
American characteristic. Many
Europeans actually believe that
most American husbands are
brow-beaten by their wives and
that we have a sort of matriarchy
here. I received a letter from a
man named Klaus, who has come
to this country to live. He wants
to settle here and marry. but he
says he just couldn't adjust to
being bossed by his wife.
"It isn't that way in the old
country" he writes, "and I don't
believe I could play second fiddle
in my own home. That's not the
way I was brought up"
It would be easy to assure
Klaus he is wrong, but let's look
into what some studies of this
very problem have brought to
light.
The fact is, Klaus, we do have
some over-aggressive women. so
masculinized. so neurotic, that
they couldn't live with any man
on terms of equality. You'll find
them in almost every country.
But no man has to marry such a
female; few will. If they make a
normal and sensible effort to
know their women before they
become too involved.
We learn from the thousands OF
women who have helped in studies
of family life that the average
one doesn't want to boss her hus-
band. She wants to be treated as
an equal. She has small respect
for husband who has no ideas
of his own, no fire in him, and
whom she can wrap around her
finger. One survey of marriage
showed wives to be boss in %
per cent of the cases studied, with
happiness rated at only about half
that accompanying real $3.50
partnerships.
Too much submisSiveneSs is not
to be listed among the real faults
of American husbands, who have
plenty, nevertheless.
Sociologist Joseph K. Folsom OF
Vassar College. in his textbook on
the family. ignores submissiveness
and hands down four principal
indictments against our husbands.
!. Too much preoccupation with

business and neglect of comrade-
ship with their wives.
2. Too little psychological in.
timacy. too little appreciation o1
wives as mature persons and moi
merely females.
3. Too much tendency to treat
wives as children; but he indicate:
that wives have this same fault
in their attitude toward theil
men.
4. Too much-or the wrong kind
of domination of sons by theil
mothers, tolerated by husbands.
So, Klaus. if you get tangled ur
with an aggressive, bossy woman
and let her snare you into mar.
riage, don't say you weren't
warned. What sort of a wife dl
you want? Whatever you desire
such women are here in America
literally by the thousands. It's
up to you to attract and ther
prove yourself to one who is right
for you. When you get her, make
your marriage $3.50 affair
that's the real American way.

WhyGrow
Old?
By Josephine LoWmon

A love of gadgets, curiosity and
a sense of mimicry and fun seem
to be universal human character
listics. If we watch a gang OF
monkeys and are at all imagina-
tive, they remind us of us. Have
you noticed how they love to look
into a mirror. how they tease and
badger one another, or how they
settle down to investigate some
crazy mechanism?
Remember the pogo stick craze?
I never say monkey on one but
I am sorry I didn't. and lot OF
people looked like monkeys when
they tried that gadget out. There
is method to this madness I am
developing.
Most people (who wouldn u
would rather take a couple of pills
a day and remain youthful than
trouble with nutrition. Most wom-
en- would rather lie on a satin
cushion in some salon and be
massaged than sweat it out by
working their muscles.
However, most women cannot
afford the satin cushion, and be-
sides, they would profit by the
less glamorous approach to health
and beauty.
Lack of exercise and adequate
circulation lie back of much stiff
ness and fatigue. While middle
aged persons should not indulge
in strenuous exercise unless they
are accustomed to it, yet they
should make some joint-oiling and
tone-building and circulation and
glandular- stimulating motions.
I always get a big kick out of
giving deep-knee bend exercises in
my classes. The joints that pop
sound like firecrackers when the
class first gets under way. Later
on there is not a sound from the
joints and the fireworks come
only from feeling peppier.
If you want to feel like a mon
key on a pogo stick and at the
same time firm the thighs. oil up
the knee joints and develop grace
and balance, try this one:
Bend the knees all the way
down. Place the hands on the
knees. Bounce up and down.
Keep your back straight. If this
is too advanced for you. place your
hand on a nearby chair to help
with balance.

To Save Time

If you are planning to serve
roast turkey to guests. save time
on the day of the party by pre-
pairing the dry ingredients for the
stuffing the day before and re-
frigerate them. Then prepare
the moist ingredients for the
dressing and refrigerate them.
On the party day mix the two
together, and stuff the bird with
them just before it goes into the
oven.

CLEANING THE DRILL

'HERE IS my way of cleaning
out the grain and grass seed drills,
when changing seed or for storing
till next season. When I have the
box cleaned to the feed holes,
put the feed wide open, take the
tire pump or air pressure hose, and
blow out the seed holes, letting the
seed down through the hoses onto a
canvas if it is desired to save it,
o. w. S.
Note by I. w. D.-A few minutes
time spent this way helps to pre-
vent caking and rusting. It is even
more important to thoroughly clean
every speck of commercial fertilizer
from the distributor, otherwise it
will cake and ruin the working parts
with rust.

SAFE KINDLING

THERE IS handy and safe way
to take care of your fire kindling
needs. Use a gallon can with self
closing lid, fill it half-full of saw
dust, fine mill shavings, or other
material, pour kerosene on same
until it is well soaked, and keep
large spoon or small cup in the can
at all times. When building a fire,
put cup of the kindling under the
wood, see that the container is
closed, and then touch a match to
the kindling. I hope all who read
this will try it and stop the very
dangerous practice of using straight
kerosene.

Note by I. w. DIT would be
better to use two medium size bulbs
rather than one large one, as it will
be quite job to dig out the ice in
case a single bulb would go out and
the water freeze. Also it would help
if the tank is banked at the sides

The golden eagle is q strong
flyer. Often it uses its powerful
wings for great bursts of speed.
Reddish gold feathers on its head
and neck gave the golden eagle
it's name. Elsewhere it has deep
brown, almost black, plumage.
Four continents have golden
eagles-Asia, Europei Africa and
North America. They often meas
ure 8 feet or more from head to
Itail, and their wings spread out as
much as z feet from tip to tip.
The golden eagles of North
America range from Alaska to
Mexico. They are chiefly mountain
birds, and some persons speak OF
them as mountain eagles. Others
call them brown eagles or black
eagles.
western Canada has some of
these birds, and they have been
reported at times in central On
tario, also in Nova Scotia. Now
and then they have been seen in
mountains of eastern parts Of the
United States, but they are rare
east of the Mississippi River.
The huge nests of golden eagles
bring wonder to those who look at
them. They are made Of sticks
and branches, and are lined with
Evening star., 1952-06-09

twigs, grass, pine needles or bits
of bark. Some of the nests are 5 OF
6 feet wide. An old nest, which
has been worked on from year tc
year, may have a thickness OF 4
feet or a bit more!
1t seems strange that such a nest
should be used for only two eggs
at a time, but that is the usual
number.
A ledge of rock on high level
is likely to serve as nesting place
From such a ledge the eagles can
look downward to a plain or valley
and spy game. In other cases, these
eagles build their nests In large
trees, including pines and oaks.
Many kinds of animals serve as
food for golden eagles. Ground

Here's what happened in today's
deal. Mr.. Muzzy's opening lead
was the jack of clubs and dummys
ace won the first trick. Mr.. Dale
then cashed three rounds of trumpS.
Mr.. Muzzy followed suit once in
trumps and then signaled violently
in spades, playing the nine and
deuce in that order.
Mr.. Dale smiled when he got
this information that the spade
finesse would lose. He was thereby
guided into another line of play
which had, at least, a $3.50 chance
Of success.
Now, everything depended on the
diamond suit. If the jack could be
set up, dummy's losing club could
be discarded on it. One way to do
this was to cash the king and ace
of diamonds and ruff a third round
on the board, hoping the queen
would drop. A second method, and
the one Mr.. Dale selected, was to
lead diamond to the king, return
a diamond and fineSse the jack.
When the jack held, Mr.. Dale
led the ace anu off went dummy's
six of clubs. Only spade trick
had to be conceded to the defenders.
When the hand was over Mr..
Champion shook his head in
evaporation. How innocent can
you get, Muzzy?" he snapped. "You
wanted spades led, so why tell Dale
you had the king?"
Il was telling you," replied MIR.
Muzzy.
The point is, you should signal
only when the information will be
more useful to partner than to
your opponent. And certainly that
was not true in this case.
