cook for fifteen minutes in eleetrie,
oven at moderate temperature. Cover
and leave in 'yen until ready to serve
-the retained heat will finish the

you have added your tenderloin strips,
your plate is 'complete.
Hello Homemakers) With the tend-
ency towards small parties these days,
let's talk about 'what shall we eat?'
After all, it is nice to ask the Knit
and Chatter girls over for lunch and
an afternoon of work • and talk. Or
maybe af
ternoon
cousins will drop in on
Sunday afternoon and share supper
with us around the fireplace.
* * *
Plate suppers - the favourite dish
for many of these occasions - must
be planned well ahead of time. If
you have glass salad plates, do use
them - they are so gay. And now
for your menus - which are really
easy to prepare.
May we suggest Plum Broilettes?
Shape well-seasoned, mashed potatoes
into balls the size of large plums,
then` dip them in egg white. To go
with them, mince round steak, moist-
en with tomato juice, bind with fine,
dry crumbs, season with chopped cel-
ery leaves and roll into tiny Sausage
Rolls. Cover these and store in the
electric refrigerator until 15 minutes
before serving. While our hot dish
is broiling - by placing meat and po-
tato balls in broiling pan, two inches
below hot top oven element - you
,can arrange tire plates. And you will
want a salad to serve with this. Plain
cabbage, shredded exceptionally fine
beforehand, should be marinated with
a salad dressing to which applesauce
and horseradish have been added.
Place this salad mixture on a bed of
watercress and garnish with shaved
carrot strips. Small pickled pears,
cored and stuffed with small peanuts
would be a surprise tidbit. With the
addition of the broiled potatoes and
sausages, everything- is now ready to
be served on the plates.

And don't forget hot buttered rolls,
Place them below the broiling pan or
in a paper bag on the same shelf as
the casserole. They will 'taste just as
if they were coming out of the oven
for the first time.
A serving of rich chocolate cake
with a topping on it, for a change,
will give your luncheon the final
touch. Delicious? Of course, Hope
you have a nice party!

QUESTION BOX
Mrs. W. C, asks "Is it dangerous
to use real sour milk in baking?"
ANSW"ER: Sour milk only has a
limited amount of acidity but since
other bacteria grow in separated sour
milk the baked product will have an
undesirable flavour and may not be
of good texture.
Mrs. J. A. B. suggests: When you
put away woollen garments, sprinkle
with table salt; moths and silverfish
will not touch any 'salted' cloth. This
method may be used on chesterfields
and rugs in summer, too.
Mrs. K C. asks: "Should steak.
pieces be rolled in flour, before can-
ning meat by the hot water method?"
ANSWER; No. Flour retards heat
penetration, flakes off in the bottom
of the jar and gives the meat a 'warm-
ed over' taste, Recipes have been
sent to you, Mrs. W,
Anne Allan invites you to write to
her c/o The Advance-Times. Just

PHIL OSIFER OF ,
LAZY MEADOWS
. "THE CLOTHESLINE"
We had trouble with our clothes-
line at Lazy - Meadows this week.
Mrs. Phil has been complaining for
weeks about the sagging condition of
the line with little results. On Mon-
day she was up bright and early and
was priding herself on the fact that
she would be the first one on the con-
cession to have her washing out. That
is the way she intended it 'but a num-
ber of things came along to interfere.
The stock were all 'fed and I was
basking in the bright sun. Mrs. Phil
came out on the back stoop with a
basket of wash and reaching up with
a cloth started to wipe off the clothes-
line. It seemed such a peaceful scene
. . . until the line broke. Down it
went slithering around hi the mud of
the back yard like some, very gaunt
snake.
With her hands on her hips and
unsaid words just bubbling and froth-
ing to get out Mrs, Phil stood and
looked at the line. There was no need
to call me, I came quickly rather
than run the risk of making things
any worse than they actually were,
Have you ever tried to unsnarl a
clothesline that would have to break
at a point other than where it was
spliced together? It twists arid turns
and wire splinters grab at your 'hands
and scratch across your plains, Just
when you think it is all ready td go,
it loops and you lose your grip on it,
You pull and tug and grunt and groan
and give your uncensored opinion on
what you think,of clotheslines in gen-
eral,
This seemed to be just one of those
days when things go wrong for no
apparent reason. The break in the
line was repaired and the line set up
and running smoothly. Mrs. Phil
somewhat appeased by the fact that
it seemed to be in good order again
started wiping the line off,' It develop-
ed that the two splices were on the
under side of the line anil would have
to go up to the top. The splices were
too bulky to run through the pulleys
and so the . whole thing had to be
taken down and put up again.
Having exerted myself to get it up
in time without too much fuss it seem-
ed that the work merited a smoke, I
sat down on the jack we use when
"buck-sawing" wood and Mrs. Phil
diligently cleaned the mud from the
line,
It happend! The screw holding the
pulley pulled out of the post. Mrs.
Phil threw doWn the cloth in disgust.
Her hopes of getting the clothes out
bright and early were rapidly vanish-
ing., Try and shinny up a post some-
time and hold a clothesline on a pul-
ley in one hand. It just isn't 'possible
. . . especially when the post is a
splintering cedar one.
The short ladder was in the driving
shed, almost covered over with old
harness, grain bags and stove pipes.
Finally the ladder was salvaged and
the pulley and clothegine straightened.
Mrs. Phil had recovered enough to
come out and hold a broom between
the lines to keep them from snarling
up.
The place where the pulley hooked
on was to a screw and this screw had
gouged a deep hble in the post. There
wasn't time to go and get a brace and
bit and start another hole and so I
took a chance and put the screw back
in the hole, wedging it in place with
a nail. The job looked safe and
sound.

• Mrs. Phil had to wipe the line off
again, The clothesline seemed quite
secure und she looked up and down the
concession .. that is over to Smith's
and there was no sign of any washing
out. The world was still a bright and
happy place in spite of all the trouble
that had descended on us,
Billowing, white sheets spread out
in the sun. Shirts that 'seemed a
model of cleanliness vied for a place
with crisp looking pillow cases. It
was really and truly a handsome wash.
It seemed that nothing could mar the
sheer beauty of cleanliness of that
wash,.
Fate seems to deal out stiff blows
when you're not prepared for it. We
had had all kinds of trouble with the
line.. Then it seemed to be working
in pefect order. What could happen
to interfere with this washing? The
line was full and Mrs. Phil.stood back
and looked at it with pride of a skilled
craftsman. It was a washing to be
proud of.
Then the screw pulled out of the
post again and the entire w.ash went
sprawling down in the mud. Mrs.
Phil just clenched her, fists and said,
"Oh leave the whole thing there."
She went away off into the house and
as I started to Pull the sorry looking
thing up out of the dirt I chanced to
look over to where the Higgins wash
was flapping merrily in the morning
sunshine. Trouble really comes in
batches.
ONLY FIFTY YEARS AGO

Ladies wore bustles.
Operations were rare.
Nobody swatted the fly.
Nobody had seen a silo.
Nobody had appendicitis.
Nobody sprayed orchards.
Cream was five cents a pint.
Most young men had "livery bills.'
Canteloupes were muskmelons.
'You never heard of a "tin Lizzie."
'Advertisers did not tell the truth...
Nobody oared about the price of
gasoline.
Farmers came to' town for their
