designs with their paints. The
results were so beautiful that I
hated to throw them away. So I
saved them. and used them for
wrapping paper for my Christi

packages looked charming. and

them.
But the most incredible thing
is that one of my friends thought

since she liked 1t so much she
went to several shops trying to
buy some for her own use. The
manager at one of the shops
said: No. we don't carry it. but
if we knew who designed it we
sure would like to stock it.
MY friends asked me about it.

I am now agent for my children's

great pleasure to call on the diff

SOME FINE pIsHEs.

mrs. j. L. s., W1Sk111lgt0ftJ
I had just been thinking of
sending a chicken gumbo rec
ipe as a budget-Saver and
leftover-uSer when Mrs. p. A.
p. put in her request for same.
We're having the following
tonight: One large onion
chopped. a little green pep
per if you like. saute until
golden brown in bacon or ham
drippings. combine with one
can of tomatoes and leftover
chicken broth and chicken. If
available. If not, use one or
two cans of chicken-rice soup,
add ham stock if available.
or pieces of leftover ham.
and let simmer at least an
hour but longer won't hurt.
About one half hour before
serving put in one box of
frozen okra, a pound of fresh
okra or canned okra as a last
resort. ! usually add some
water during the cooking proc
eSS so it will be rather Soupy,
but if allowed to cook down it
can be made as thick as one
desires. Add salt, pepper to
taste. Serve over fluffy
steamed rice and be sure to
have plenty of cornbread and
butter. Dessert is the only
other requirement for "a full
meal for our family.
Mrs. M. A. r. requests uses
for oregano, which can be
added to the above if one de-
slreS, also a dash of tabasco
won't hurt it. / also use
oregano in Italian spaghetti,
pizza pie, chilli, Spanish ONE
let and in any Mexican, Span
ish or Italian dish. One un-
usual recipe using oregano was
given to me by a Greek cook:
Boil S or 6 potatoes in jack
cts Cor the number required
by your family for home-fries;
peel and slice in thin slices
as for home frying. peel and
chop or 2 large onions.
brown the onions in bacon
drippings, lard or your favor
ite frying medium. When the
onions are tender and brown.
add the sliced potatoes,
sprinkle generously with salt,
pepper and oregano and keep
turning so that potatoes brown
evenly. Turn heat low, cover
frying pan and let cook for
10 or is minutes. Much to
my surprise my three children
passed up French fries and ate
these with steak although
they all usually refuse onions
if recognizable.

GREEN GROW THE RUSHES
MRS. N. J. S., Washington
The song, Green Grow the
Rushes. Ho," is a very old
Scotch song. My father used
to sing it so years ago when
I was small. I think it is one
of Bobbie Burns, but am not
positive; nevertheless, I would
suggest that you consult a
book of Burns poetry first.

LYNcHINcs STOP

No lynching took place in the past year. This fact
may be interpreted marking moral advancement in the
South where ynchings usually occurred But we can be
mistaken accepting this conclusion as the entire expana-
ton of the drop murder by mobs. The killings continue
but by different methods The killers resort to time
bombs placed the intended victims home. That was the
nesse in the murder of H. Moore in Florida Sometimes
state official gets ggerhappy and snutfs out the life Of
prisoner who 'tried to escape.
Gone from public view are spectacular moomurders,
which some few years ago with Dixie holiday pastmes
attended not only by men but by and children with
the distribution of souvenirs of bits of the victim who was
burned alive That crudty has disappeared But who can
say that the spirit of mob-murder has subsided?
