It’s usually the homemaker who has to satisfy the hunger pertaining to this pleasure—lots of good food. Of course, we begin a couple of days ahead to purchase supplies— meat, bread, butter, salad ingredi­ ents, and sandwich fillings, so that the day in question prepared. If the meat has to so the previous day. ter go further, cream butter thoroughly and beat in a cup of top milk, add salt, then Chill. Salad dressing should be tasty and fairly thick for this meal. Drop cookies or a large cake makes a good dessert along with some fruit. You can also include an iced beverage depending on your fam­ ily’s taste. A simple jellied veal with a dish ad, thick jellied tomatoes, lettuce, and some of mother’s tangy pickle relish, followed by generous sized fruit turnovers of rhubarb, apple, berries or some filling off the jam shelf will satisfy the most, demand­ ing appetite.

If they're damp, stuff with paper and leave to ■dry. Brush thoroughly. Use a cleaner to prevent dryness or cracking. 2. The printed linoleum on our kitchen floor was in good condtion except for a worn .spot in front of the sink. We cut out a semi-circular ’-piece of the worn printed linoleum and .cemented in a piece of har­ monizing solid colour instead of trying to match the pattern. 3, If your pottery vases and howls d-on’t fit* into your colour scheme, paint them with cold water paint. Once the paint is thoroughly set, you’ll find that water will not affect the finish if the water is changed every das'-. 4. To make a sturdy, effective shade for small plants and seed- ’ lings, cut the bottom, off quart .cartons and fit the cartons pressing the edges the earth. * * * QUESTION BOX Mrs. J. M. asks: How to prevent strawberries from floating to the top of the jar? ' Answer: This is one fruit which should be prepared for canning, then brought to a boil, cooled for an hour, then bottled and process­ ed for the required length of time, according to the method used. (Electric oven at 275 deg. for 15 mins.) Mrs. M. T. asks: Recipe for in­ expensive salad dressing for raw vegetables. Salad Dressing: Into the a double boiler put 4 lightly eggs, % cup granulated blended with 2 tbsps. flour, mustard, and % tsp. salt, well and stir in 1 cupful of mild vinegar. Cook over hot water until thick. -Cool and store in glass jar in electric refrigerator. When, using the dressing, thin it with cream, plain or whipped. For a cabbage salad, we often use soui* cream when it’s on hand. Cut down the amount of mustard if yon pre­ fer less tang. Try adding a curry when using it 'for eggs -or a meat salad.» * =p Anne Allan invites you to her %The Times-Advocate.
