APPLE RECIPE.

mrs. H. G. S., Falls Church,
Having noticed the inquiry
for apple sauce cake and the
responses, may I also add q
few suggestions? If you have
no apple sauce on hand. peel
and CRATE one very large or 2
small apples (tart Variety
and add about 70 to u cup
of liquid. We prefer half
maraschino cherry juice. Then
cut in thirds about 8 cherries.
Also be sure to add some nuts
(pecans preferred).
For something special, leave
the cake right in its baking
pan, If it is glass or aluminium,
then ice with q confectioner's
sugar-margarine icing, using
strong coffee for the liquid. Do
not cut the cake the first day.
It win be deliciously fresh for

First, thanks to the readers
who sent Tomato Butter reci-
pes to me. I tried them all in
small quantities and they were
almost equally good.
Now, for curing autumn
leaves: Two months ago, ! took
q spray of oak leaves and using
a warm iron, pressed each
leaf between sheets Of wax
paper. This made them fiat.
but they still are. green and
pretty. I shall try some more,
bending each leaf a little while
still warm from the iron. to
eliminate the f1atnesS. Acorns,,
glued to the cups lido not use
rubber cement) and wired to
twigs with very fine wire add
a great deal of interest to an
autumn leaf arrangement.

FUDGE.
mrs. L. L. r., Alexandria

mrs. L. L. r., Alexandria
To Mrs. A. M, Washington:
The secret of perfect fudge is
a candy thermometer which
indicates the exact point at
which the candy has cooked
sufficiently. The following bas-
ic recipe has never failed me:
Two cups granulated sugar, 2
squares baking chocolate, "a
cup milk, 2 tablespoons white
corn sirup, ls teaspoon salt, 2
tablespoons butter, ! teaspoon
vanilla.
Combine sugar, chocolate,
milk, corn strip and salt and
stir over quick heat until sugar
Is melted. Reduce heat, attach
candy thermometer to sauce
pan and cook mixture slowly
until thermometer indicates
238 degrees. Pour Immediately
into large mixing bowl of cleo
trio mixer. Add butter and
vanilla and beat at top speed
until mixture thickens and
loses it's gloss. For a delicious
variation, beat 3 generous
tablespoons of peanut butter
(cream or chunk style) into
mixture together with butter
and vanilla. Pour into buttered
square pan or dish; when
candy is nearly cool, cut into
squares. / find that one-and-
a-hah times this recipe poured
into a 91a-inch square pan
makes exactly Is fairly thick
pieces of fudge.

proponents of the "quiet" out
boards which have made such a
hit with fishing and outboard
motor enthusiasts, stating that
the lack of noise and vibration
from the new motors is a definite
help in taking game fish.
The people who make the mo-
tors no doubt view all this with
quiet amusement. Whether you
like them noisy or quiet, they'll
fill your specifications. And as
one prominent manufacturer
says, perhaps the ultimate an
sWer to the outboard noise fish

decisive as the question of what
lure is best for what species Of
fish.

QUESTION: Why is il custom
arY to keep the shofar covered
when not using il during the High
Holiday New Years service?
ANSWER: Even during the
course of the service the shofar is
hidden from sight. The reason
usually advanced for this is asso-
ciated with the scene of the bind
ing of Isaac on Mount Moriah.
When Abraham was building the
altar upon which he was prepar-
ing to sacrifice his son Isaac, the

Midrash relates, he kept Isaac
hidden until the time he was
ready to sacrifice him, so that
nothing would happen to render
the sacrifice or the altar unfit.
Since the blowing of the Shofar
on Rosh Hashonah commentaries
the binding Of Isaac upon the
altar as an indication of the readi-
ness of the Jew to sacrifice his
dearest possession if the Almighty
requests it, and to ask the Lords
mercy for a good new year in the
name of Abraham and Isaac, the
shofar is likewise hidden as Isaac
was.
