Sofety Measure
The NOT TRANSFERABLE
is more rigidly inforced as the
world and life becomes more
complex. This is a safety mea-
sure and those on the list for
invitations are limited to Off
cialS, legislators and diplomats.
Leaders in resident circles of
Washington were included years
ago in the companies at the
receptions, each one being in
vited at least once during the
season, and the invitations were
delivered by hand. not mailed.
There was CONSERVATION
among some of the members of
the National Society of Daugh-
tiers of the American Revolu-
tion when they were greeted
recently by Mrs. Alben w. Bark
ley, wife of the Vice President,
instead of Mrs. Truman. None
knew that in the days of Theo-
dore Roosevelt, his wife and the
ladies of the Cabinet circle
bowed to guests as they passed
but each held a bouquet of
flowers and there was no hand
shaking.
Arrangements were more
democratic in recent admins
trations and the inner envelope
for invitations was dispensed
with during the Coolidge econ
omy. The shaking of hands was
resumed during the Taft admin
istration when there was a re-
turn to generous hospitality and
light suppers were served at
the State receptions.
These suppers had to be
omitted and only punch-non-
alcoholic-and little cakes took
their place. It was during the
Taft administration that q col
lector Of souvenirs among the
guests was seen to remove the
forks and spoons from the plates
and drop them-chicken salad,
ice cream and all-into the
pocket in the tail of his dress
coat. But the silver was that of
a caterer and did not bear the
stamp Of the President.
Washington has become the
world Capital and thus many
who would like to be among
those invited to the White House
are left out because Of the lack
OF space and time to greet themA

MERRY CHRISTMAS AND A
HAPPY NEW YEAR

AT Christmas time there is a
lot of fruit in homes. Why not
take some of the orange and le-
mon peels, scald them, dry them
and then grind them into a coarse
powder. Prepared this way, they
make excellent flavoring for sau-
ces, buildings and cakes.
A few pieces of dried orange
rind kept in the tea canister will
give tea delicious fragrance
and flavor.
In proportion to cost, small
oranges usually yield more juice
than larger ones.
Leftover fruit juices tif not too
sweet may be frozen in the ice
trays OF your refrigerator. These
frozen cubes may be used as a
distinct addition to drinks for
both flavor and color. A sprig of
mint or a maraschino cherry, fro
zen into each cube, also adds an
attractive touch to cold drinks.
The next time you have iced
tea, why not try this idea. Make
some lemon juice ice cubes by
diluting lemon juice with water
and freezing in your ice cube
trays. When ready to serve the
iced tea, drop cubes into the tea.
This chills and flavors the iced
tea at the same time.

A New Winter Coat

Christmas is about over, and
now it's time to think about your
self and your needs or wants
Mrs. Homemaker. Does a new
winter coat come under this head
ing? Number of stores have
clearance sales after Christmas
and you might find just the coat
you want and at a bargain"
But be sure it is bargain -
in wearing qualities, color and
style, as we'll as in price.
After you find one that you
think just right in color to GO
with your present wardrobe, look
at the fabric. Is it 4 novelty one,
or one that will be good for years?
Most homemakers average five
to eight years from their winter
| coats.
Having settled on the color and
fabric, now try it on to see what
the line will do to you. Look at
it in full length mirror as you
wear it. If the shorter coats are
good on your figure, you may still
need to think Of what your gar
ments will look like below the
short coat. Usually the short coats
are smarter with straight line
skirts.
How comfortable is it? Does the
collar hug the back of your neck?
Does it fit through the shoulders
and waistline with ease? If it is
to be worn over suits, this fit is
particularly important.
Examine the tags. See what the
coat is made of and if it has a
special finish such as a water or
moth repellant finish. Is the fin
ish permanent?
Is the lining firmly woven and
colorfast to perspiration? If the
lining is one of the metal-backed
heat-retention types, you might
be interested in research which
showed that upon dry cleaning
the metal has tendency to flake
off. You may want to leave the
manufacturers time to perfect this
finish.
A wool interlining will likely
be unnecessary, as it limits the
use of a coat. In our coolest
weather, you will be comfortable
with the coat worn over a suit,
sweater or wool-jacketed dress.
Check the button holes for firm

stitches and strong ends and cor
ners. Buttons should be color
fast, simple in design and dur
able. Small buttons underneath
add to durability.
If it is long coat. a continuous
hem at front facinQrather than a
seam will permit frightening of
.~milne for growth or fashion
change.
The lining and coat that are
hemmed separately at lower edge
and bar tackled at the seams give
the lining freedom of motion and
do not pull on the coat.
Try on your coat move your
arms in all directions and sit down
in it. Try, 1t on over suit if you
plan to use it in this way to be
sure it is roomy enough.

Then grind the meat through a
chopper, using 3-16 inch blade.
For a more thorough mixing, run
the meat through your chopper a
second time. If you prefer a finer
ground sausage, use a l-8 inch
blade the second time.
Fresh country pork sausage
should be packaged and kept un-
der refrigeration. This kind of
sausage will keep satisfactorily
for 80 to go days in a locker or
home freezing unit at zero degrees
F.. if packaged properly.
Smoked Sausage
If you want to prepare smok-
ed sausage, add " tablespoon of
salt to either of the recipes above.
Stuff sausage in castings or mus
lin bags. When using muslin bags,
usually the diameter is 2 inches
and the length IL to IA inches. Be
sure the sausage is stuffed as
tightly as possible. This sausage
should be allowed to cure for
about "a hours before smoking.
Smoke at temperature of 70 to 80
degrees F. for SO to 48 hours.
Oversmoking causes the sausage
to dry out. This sausage may be
stored under natural temperature
and allowed to age. 1t will also
store satisfactorily for 6 to 9
months at zero degrees F., pro-
vided it is wrapped tightly in
moisture-vapor-proof material.

Mdking Pork Sausage

Pork sausage properly made is
a choice product. Use only pork
of good quality. Trimmings usu-
ally are made into sausage and
often shoulders and loins are
boned for this purpose. The pro-
per mixture is % lean and 1-3
fat. Cut the lean and fat into
small pieces.
Fresh Sausage
If you mix your own ingre-
dents, use fresh materials of good
quality and mix them thorough
ly. Here are two good recipes for
season fresh pork sausage:
For each 8 pounds of meat use
a mixture Of S tablespoons salt,
3 tablespoons black pepper, 2
tablespoons sage. For each 8
pounds Of meat, use this mix
ture: Az tablespoons salt, OK
tablespoons black pepper, ~
tablespoons sage, tablespoon
red pepper, 2 tablespoons sugar.
Sprinkle ingredients over meat
and mix thoroughly with hand.
