CARE OF RUBBER GLOVES.
MRS. j. T.. p. Wushin0tonJ


mrs. J. E. p, Washington
Sometime ago a reader
asked for suggestions on how
to make the rubber gloves we
use in household cleaning last
longer. Here are my hints:
First, be careful when using
any metal pot cleaner. It
seems logical to me that the
sharp edges of a pot cleaner
can easily cut a rubber glove.
Second, the suggestion that I
have found which will greatly
prolong the life of your rubber
gloves is to wear two gloves at
a time. This way. even if the
top glove does get a little cut
in it (and they seem to be in
evitable), your hands won't get
wet because the inner glove is
still intact, and the outer
gloves can be worn much
longer in spite of the little
hole, since the hands are still
protected by the inner gloves.
Then, when the outer gloves
are too badly worn to be of any
use, buy a new pair in your
regular size, use the new ones
for the inner pair and transfer
the former inner pair to the

MANILA
(F. c.. Falls Church,

For Mrs. G. G. K, WASH
ington who is considering
going to Manila for two years:
You will love it I am sure, If
you are prepared for q hot
climate and can stand 1t. AS
far as I can see it's no worse
than Washington in the sum-
mer, the only thing is that it
lasts all year. However no one
does their own work, and that's
not hard to take, especially
after working yourself in the
Washington summer. Life is
very pleasant. and I am sure
you'll find a fine group of
people who are all most friend
ly.
There is q fine American
school there which has a good
reputation for scholarship and
your child will make many in
teresting friends from all over.
Housing Is not too hard to find,
but is high. I wouldn't take
any heavy over-Stuffed furni-
ture for it is too hot to sit on
and would probably be ruined
by the climate. The same thing
goes for books which Mildew.
One keeps luggage and clothes
and many things in hot-lockers
for this reason. You don't need
blankets or any hot clothing
except for the trip. But plenty
Of shoes, and the coolest cloth
ing possible. Cotton is best.
Dress makers are cheap and it
is good to take cotton ma
terials with you. You should
take your stove and refriger.
ator, as they are very high
out there. Also q car. If you
wish information, write me
through RCH. and perhaps I
can call you.

POEM.
&C. D. r., HyGttsuille)

I have just located, after a
five days search, this poem
which may be welcome to many
of our animal lovers. and pos
Sibly bring new friends of
these friendly animal helpers.
The poem is called "For Dumb
Creatures" but the author is
unknown.
Maker of earth and sea and sky.
Creations Sovereign. Lord and King.
Who hung the starry worlds on high
And softly piumed the sparrow's wing,
Bless the dumb creatures in our care
And listen to their voiceless prayer.
For as they toll. for us they die.
These humble creatures Thou hast made
How shall We dare their rights deny
On whom Thy seal Of love Is laid?
Teach, Thou. our hearts to hear their
As Thou dost mans in prayer to Thee.

ITALIAN RECIPE
u. e. D.. ChepN Chase


To Mrs. L. r., Falls Church:
Here is Mrs. Patrella's recipe
for beef and pork rolls, or Bra
zalla. I clipped this recipe
from the Ladies Home Journal.
I believe she is a staff mem
Der:
Make a mixture of. "a cup
chopped parsley. " cup grated
Romano or ParmeSan cheese
and " Glove garlic. Have
butcher cut "a pound very
thinly sliced top round of beef
and u pound thinly sliced
fresh pork butt. Spread half
the mixture on the beef, half
on the pork. Roll them up (the
long way for the beef and tie
with a string or fasten with
skewers. Brown well on all
sides in hot salad oil. Drain
and add to 8 cups tomato
sauce. Simmer in covered pan
for to " hours until tender.
To serve, remove string or
skewers and cut into one inch
pieces. Put back in sauce.
Serve with spaghetti and
grated cheese"
I vaguely remember the bra
Zalla my grandmother made.
The filling contained chopped
pistachio nuts, chopped raisins
and chopped hard boiled eggs.
A small amount of each added
to Mrs. Patrella's recipe for the
filling might resemble those

fortably slip into them. If you
start this system, either buy
two pairs, one your regular size

up an old pair that can be

TRAILER TRIP?

Mrs. I. J. G.. WGShin0tonJ
We are anticipating an auto
trip to Minneapolis around the
middle of July. We have lived
in Minneapolis and visited
there (by train) many times.
Our question is the advisability
Of taking q two weeks trip
there with q rented small
house trailer. Is this more &C.
onomical than stopping at
motels, ETC.? What effect, If
any, does hauling q trailer have
on o new car?
