enthusiastic welcome.
So it is not surprising that with the
appearance of rice, homemakers are
writing to us for ways to use it. Some
find the price high and want to know
ways to use it wisely, others have

thrown away prewar rice recipes.
Today, therefore,-we refresh your
memory with rice crispies for soup,
main course or dessert. Rice is a star-
chy food which should be cooked in
plenty of hot liquid quickly. To pre-
vent rice forming a sticky mass dur-
ing cooking, sprinkle rice slowly Into
rapidly boiling water. Cook without a
cover keeping the food constantly boil-
ing until rice is soft (about 40 mins.)
drain and pour a cup of cold water
through the rice in a sieve, and place
in a partially covered dish in a warm
place before serving.
RICE SOUP
'For each quart of brown or white
stock, use two tablespoons rice. Soak
one-half hour in enough stock or wat-
ter to cover it. Bring remainder of
stock to simmering-point. Add soaked
rice and simmer in closed saucepan
one-half hour:

popped hack into my mind, What a
contrast it malces?
It was bright and snotty in Van-
couver, People were going around
without even topcoats. In some gar-
dens flowers still bloomed in spite of
the 'occasional little .skiff of snow that
fell during January, Coming from the
cold weather -of the East I spent every
available day just wandering arbund,
It scented' to be almost too. good to be
true,
The biggest shock of all cameoin the
place .known as Stanley Park..., Folks
were Wandering around there as if it
were a bright day in summer , and
the old men were playing theekers on
an enormous outdoor board. Ranged:
aronnd on tiers of seats were spectat-.,
ors watching in rapt interest.
Two Old.men, pretending hot to be
aware of the people watching them, hut
really very much _aware of it, were
playing a game of . checkers, With
hooked . sticks they moved the big
blocks which were the checkers. They

from some farm in the Prairies or the.
Okanagan Dr the Fraser Valley, a little
bit confused about city life . . a little
bit lonely for the prairie 'farms or 'the
farm nestled in -some valley between
mountains . grimly ihtent on winn-
ing a game of cheekers.
What 'a change it must be to move
from a warm, farm kitchen on a cold.
frosty .night where, the checker board
sits on 'an oilcloth-coveren table . tO

spectators, in a winter .season that most
ofthe time is no more severe than e'arly
fall in the rest of Canada, They suck-

stein . the other clenched a 4hattered,
stubby relic between his,teeth.'
The .tall one bowed to the crowd
when he had vangnished, his opponent:
The short one slipped to a seat and his
place was taken bY a lean4 old man
,with a wisp of whisker who wore a
cap. Dressed in a black suit, turnin4-
green with age, he took up a stick and
the next game was on.
I wonder if they're playing'checkers

1, To make broiled cube steaks, you
can use either, round steak or ten-
derloin, cut into individual serving
pieces. To tenderize it, pound each
piece with, a Wooden mallet or -po-
tato masher. Preheat the broiling
element. Place steak on lightly
greased rack of broiling pan two
inches below the hot element.
Brown for 10 minutes,, then turn
and broil on other side. Sprinkle
with salt and pepper and serve.

canned meat in thick slices. Spread
one side with prepared mustard or
chili sauce. Whip mashed potatoes
with milk and put in between slices
of meat. Heat, in a covered casse-
role.
3. A souffle can be made on top of the
stove, Put 2 squares chocolate with
1 cup milk in top of double boiler.
Cook over boiling wafer until choc-
olates melts; beat until smooth with
egg beater; add 113 cup sugar, .dash
, of salt, 1 tsp. vanilla, and &unbeat-
en eggs. Beat vigiorously one min-
ute. Carer and cook 20 minutes

ectric element. Serve warm with
