They may be used, as well, to ex- cellent advantage in any recipe calling for canned tomatoes. In casseroles or baked or in a soup, they are delicious. If you live in a tomato growing district, you may want to can your own tomatoes, and tomato juice.

Watch for such patterns—they yield fascinating pictures. EVERYBODY likes an interesting pattern—and there is an end - leas variety of patterns you can capture with your camera, if you watch for them. Wherever light shines through something—such as an ornamental window, or ralling—there may be a pattern of light and shadow.

The best type of grille is fairly open, so that it does not cut off too much of the scene. Expose for the distant parts of the view, and do not try to obtain detail in the grille—it is more effective it it appears as a dark outline. In all these pattern pictures, use as small a lens opening as you can, so as to get a deeper zone of sharp- ness. If your lens will "stop down" to a very small opening—such as f/22—choose a high speed film for pattern shots and take advantage of the small lens opening. Whenever you're outdoors on a sunny day, watch for pattern pic- ture opportunities, Leek for pat- terns indoors, too, Natural pattern effects occur everywhere—and pic- tures of them will lend variety to your collection. 300 John van Guilder dipped in seasoned trioti end fried in butter or bacon fat, Sauce ' 4 ta'bleapmona butter 2 teaspoons sugar 1 teaspoon mustard 1 egg slightly beaten 1/4 teaspoon salt cayenne l! 2 tablespoons vinegar Cream butter.
