One of our readers called the office the other evening and said she said she had, the cookies, for which we gave the recipe this column last week, ready for the oven hut there were no cornflakes mentioned in the rec- ipe. We hope she went ahead and baked them because therecipe was all right—it was the head- ing that was wrong. It should have read "Walnut and Coco - But Macaroons" and not Wal- nut and Cornflake Macaroons." Sorry; We have been making inquir- les about Christmas puddings and find many people prefer a simple carrot pudding with varia- tions to the heavily fruited ones Ise popular a decade ago. They, like Christmas cake, were made ahead of time to "ripen." Airs. L. W. Holland, Andrew $t. gave us a recipe for Christ- mas pudding using carrots, potatoes and apples. Steamed Fruit Pudding % cup shredded raw carrot cup shredded. apples 1 cup shredded raw potato 1 cup flour 1 cup graulated sugar la cup beef suet ,(chopped or ground) 1 egg plus 1 egg white (beaten) 1 tp. baking soda 3,4 cup brandy or fruit juice cup chopped dates % cup chopped figs % cup small raisins 1 tp. each cloves, cinnamon and salt. Sift flour over prepared fruit and carrots etc. Blend sugar, suet, 1 egg, spice with soda dis- solved in water, Blend this with the fruit mixture and fold in beaten egg white and fruit juice. Put all in a greased mould to within one inch of too and *team in covered pan for 21 hours. On Thursday evening the La- dies Auxiliary to South Huron Hospital under the convenership of the nurses' committee headed by Mrs. Allen Fraser tendered the hospital staff a banquet in the Auxiliary rooms. The tables were a picture with roast turkey at one end of the buffet table and glazed baked ham at the other complimented with redapple and green pine- apple rings and all the trim- mings and condiments. between. Members of the liespital Board did the carving. A tempting variety of salads and relishes were arrayed on a side table. Chiffon pie was served for dessert and we didn't realize there was so many varieties. There were strawberry, rasp- berry, lemon, orange, lime. pumpkin and coffee chiffon pies. 1-lere is the recipe for orange chiffon pie as given by Mrs. Fraser. Orange Chiffon Pis 1 tbl, gelatine is cup cold water 3a cup orange juice 1 tbl. lemon juice 1 tbl, grated orange rind 34 cup sugar 4 eggs. Soak gelatine in cold wafer for five minutes. Beat egg yolks slightly. Add orange and lemon Juice and sugar. Put in double boiler and cook to custard con- sistency. Then add softened gelatine and stir until dissolved. Md orange rind and remove from heat. Let cool. Add whites of eggs beaten stiff to which 14 cup of white sugar hasbeen added,also 1 tp.vanil- la. � a tl la. Put in coked shell. Chill and serve with whipped cream and topped with red cherry. Lemon chiffon pie is made similarly, substituting lemon juice and rind and an extra quar- ter cup of sugar, Other varieties differ to suit the flavorings used We are all alert I for the little touches that give variety in our menu. At this banquet instead of the customary rolls sliced French style loaves of bread were served with each slice but- tered with a well known dehy- drated onion soup mixed with the butter and the whole loaf warmed. It was certainly re- ceived enthusiastically.

Cake icing which required two or three hours beating by hand and other equally laborious cook- ing procedures made them glad times have changed. Neverthe- less, some of the suggestions were interesting and effective. Particularly impressive was the comment on cooking vege- tables which was made moi,e than two hundred years ago. "To dress spinach, don't put any water in, but shake the pan of. ten" advised the author. ""To dress potatoes, you must boil them in as little water as you can. Cover the saucepan close and when the skins begin to " crack, they are cooked enough, she wrote, Meeting with the complete ap- proval of all modern medical men and nutritionists is this ad- vice from good cooks two hun- dred years ago.

Matching the plaids is prob- ably the major :problem, so the simpler the pattern and the ,few- or pieces there are, the easier this will be, It is .most important that the pattern be the correct size because altering it is apt to throw certain markings out of line, ivlaicli can make matching very difficult, "Even" plaids (in these the design and' color in each block are always the sante) are more easily matched. To test a plaid to see whether it is "even" or not, fold .it down the centre .of any repeat, both from side t0 side and top to bottom, When the colors and the plaid overlap ex- actly in each direction, they're easiest to work with. If you choose a pattern which shows a layout on plaid, it is even easier, though as a rule any pattern layout for a _fabric without a nap works very well. "Uneven" plaids require very careful Matching and cutting. Both plaid and style should he suitable to each other and to the figure.
