Did you ever try a marinade on a
cheaper cut of meat to make it tender
and give it extra flavor? After the
.meat has been made tender by the
marinade, broil it as you would more
■expensive cuts. The meat should be
left in the marinade for at least 24
hours,
hours,
inades
and better still, from 36 to 48
I will give you two good mar-
and you can take your choice.

HALLOWE’EN
Hello Homemakers! How about a
Hallowe’en party this year? It can be
as much fun for you—as it is for your
guests—if you plan a few humorous
surprises ahead of time. And if you
live anywhere near any army training
centre do include
uniform. It will be a real treat for
them.
some of the lads in
*
Even if it’s just a sing song with
apples, doughnuts and coffee to top
it off—-it can be full of gaiety and
atmosphere. Use Hallowe’en decora
tions of inexpensive orange and black
paper, “cut-outs” of pumpkin faces
and witches. There are a lot of old
“stand-byes” to spoof your visitors:
* ***
the creaking hinge on the front door,;
the ghostly hostess with the ice-filled
rubber glove; candle light in the -upper
hall; a very horror of a scarecrow near
the coat rack! Once you’ve started
this, business of trying to scare your
guests-T’for fun-r-you’ll be able to in
vent plenty of "thrillers.”
■i ■ ' * * * *
If you’re playing bridge, have varia
tion in each hand, i.e.-rbidding in
pantomine, bidding, re-shuffling then
playing the new hand on the original
bid, bidding before picking up the
hand, etc.
$ * * * *
Excitement begins all over again if
you let a gruesome witch present in
expensive prizes and then you can
have a tug-of-war with her broom.
Other groups may enjoy the fun of
apple bobbing in a tub of water—-this
always has hilarious results, Or try
the same sort of stunt, only fishing
for pennies in a pan of flour; bite for
apples suspended on strings; have
your fortune told, or you try the old,
old favorite—ghost stories— By then
your guests will be ready to dip into
the festive food.

Take a Tip:
JL. To pot slips for the winter use
lumps of charcoal taken from wood
ashes only to keep earth sweet.
2. For potted plants on the window
sill use glass gliders that you buy for
furniture. They are fine especially on
a narrow window sill when a saucer
is too wide.
3. Always water house plants with
warm w^ter and a little baking soda
added to it.
4. Do not forget to cover a plant
of parsley with a waxed box and no
matter how deep the snow will be you
can always find fresh parsley under
this box.
