ARE YOU A GOOD COMBINER?
The secret of .many a person who
is clubbed by all her friends as an
excellent cook is her sense of food
combinations. Anyone who com-
bines unusual dishes after carefully
considering the tasting effect, will
merit the name of good cook.
For instance, many people always
serve such foods as canned soups and
vegetables just as they are, never in
combinations. But try sometime us-
ing your imagination and add a can
of soup as a basting fluid for your
roast meat. Or combine a meat soup
with a can of tomato soup and watch
your guests' appreciation. If you are
scalloping a fish dish you will find
that the addition of a small can of
pea soup for the liquor, will make
people wonder and praise.
One -dish dinners are excellent for
studying out food combinations. With
a cabbage salad a combination of
diced 'bananas and peanuts make a
good one -dish meal. Or an escallop of
cabbage and cheese will satisfy a
luncheon appetite.
You may wonder at the different
taste of your hostess' party cake.
When you asks, you find the cake
was made by the same recipe you
use but was flavored with a combi-
nation of cake flavorings instead
of the usual way of adding just " one
flavor. Spice combinations will pro-
duce such variations in cakes that
the family will think mother has
come across another new recipe.
Gravy combinations will snake
dinner guests marvel, for nothing in
the culinary art is either a failure
or a grand success more than the
gravies one is served. Try adding
onion salt to one gravy, a taste of
nutmeg to another, some of the
gravy seasonings to a roast meat
gravy and remember to use generous
shakings of celery seed in a meat
gravy, being sure to strain the seeds
out before serving.
Fish combinations can be made
by using two kinds of fish in your
baking dish, or a can of peas baked
with your creamed salmon. Even
fresh boiled pork that comes out so
white and appetizing can be added
to a fish salad to give an 'unusually
pleasing taste to the dish.
Many old-fashioned cooks were
horrified at the late combination in
a fruit salad where orange slices and
grapefruit slices were generously
sprinkled with onion juice or even
topped with wafer-thin . onion slices
but today that salad is a popular one.
BOLOGNA. IN DISGUISE
Place large slices of bologna
sausage or minced ham (1-2 inch
thick and skin unbroken) in a skillet
with a little butter. Let them cook
slowly and they will form cups. Turn
them over and browr on the bottom
side. Filled with scrambled eggs,
spaghetti, or any filling desired,
they make an attractive luncheon
dish. Serve on a platter garnished
With buttered toast and individual
mounds of vegetable.
LEISURE ROOM
Our newly acquired leisure brings
the need of a room in which to spend
that leisure, More than ever before
the family is feeling the need of a
place in which to work at hobbies,
to play, or to do nothing at all.
Such a room is within the reach of
Almost any family which will spend
.a reasonable amount of time and
enthusiasm. The attic, the cellar, a
Wing, or even the apartment ver-
anda may be transformed into one of
these delightful rooms;
A cellar which had in the past,
been nothing more nor less than a
prosaic place for furnace and pre-
serves, has suddenly become the
favorite resort of the youth of a
certain neighborhood.
The boys of this family loved the
pea and so the idea of transforming
the cellar into a sort of indoor ship.
4.0
One week's allowance covered the
cost of paint, canvass, and rope. But
Mother and father and the whole
family, including the little sister,
whose part was to make gay nautical
cushions, spent many enthusiastic
hours helping to outfit this room.
Two .ship's lanterns and a com-
pass and bell were heirlooms, the
gangplank was an ingenious affair
of white -washed scantlings, ana the
life preservers were white -washed
inner tubes, bearing proudly the
family name. Is it any wonder .that
this family surveys its handiwork
with pride?
Time and space will not permit
more than a scanning of the charm-
ing attic which became the center
of the happy activities of a certain
house with more furniture than it
knew how to use. This project was
more a matter .of arranging furni-
ture already in the attic, and the
gay splashing of paint by the family
artist. The outstanding charm of
this place was the pictures painted
on the bare walls. The cost in this
case was the cost of the paint. "Why
didn't we think of it before" the
family is asking.

PLAIDS
A very interesting note in interior
decorations, and far from bizarre if
discreetly used, is found in the use
of plaids. It is a modern touch in the
color scheme that is employed in
various ways, at present. It may
seem daring for instance, to use
plaid walls in a room. But some un-
usually pleasing wall papers are in
eerly American effects that show
softly blurred diagonal plaids. A hall-
way thus papered, suddenly gains
distinction, and requires little other
decoration—on the walls at least.
Diagonal plaids are also quaintly in-
viting on bedroom walls, while those
used with floral borders for the
breakfast room suggest the garden
trellis.
Many smart box coverings, screens
and tray linings are made of plaid
paper and parchment paper with

Warmed Over Potatoes
Cut cold boiled potatoes in half.
Set the halves in a pie tin with quite
a bit of butter in it, and a little on
top of the potatoes; place in a slow
oven long enough to heat through and
brown. They are delicious.

Easy Crust for Cherry Pie
Instead of cutting several indi-
vidual strips of pie crust, roll the
crust as for a whole top crust, fold it
once, with a' sharp knife make long
slits on either side of the center out
as far as one inch from the edge. The
crust is then held together by the
outer rihi and the center. It gives
the appearance of pie crust cut in
strips but saves time and care in ad-
justing separate strips of pastry.
SUNDAY SCHOOL
LESSON
Lesson III.—The Christian at Prayer.'
Matthew 6;5-15; Ephesians 3:14-
21, Golden Text. ---.Continuing
steadfastly in prayer.—Rom. 12:
12.
THE' LESSON IN ITS SETTING
TIME.—The Lord's Prayer is part
of the Sermon on the Mount, which
was spoken in midsummer of A,D,
28, the second year of Christ's minis•
itry. Paul wrote his Epistle to the
Ephesians at some time during the
two years, A.D. 61, 62.
PLACE.—The Sermon on the
Mount was spoken on the Horns of
Hattin, a hill west of the middle of
the Sea of Galilee. Paul wrote Eph-
esians while a prisoner in his own
hired abode in Rome—his first Ro-
man imprisonment.
"And when ye pray, ye shall not
be as the hypocrites." Hypocrites
are pretenders, actors, those who go
through a form when their hearts are
not in int. "For they love to stand
and pray." Standing was the com-
mon attitude of prayer in Christ's
day, as sitting was the recognized
posture of teaching. "In the syna-
gogues and in the corners of the.
streets." In rthose places they could
be seen by the largest number, and
especially at the street corners, where
they could by seen by people com-
ing from four direcrtions, and were
splendidly conspicuous. "That they
may be seen of men." They wished
to be renowned .for their piety.
"Verily I say unto you." Christ's
common mode of emphasis. "They
have received their reward." Their
poor, trivial reward, 'the reputation
of piety.
"But thou, when thou prayest,
enter into thine inner chamber."
Thy closet or closed place of prayer.
The Jews had such a place usually
in the upper part of the house. "And
having shut thy door." To shut out
intrusion and shut one's self in with
God. "Pray to thy Father who is in
secret." The more alone we are so
far as men are concerned, the least
alone we are so far as God is con-
cerned. "And thy Father who seeth
in secret shall recompense thee." All
that you need and more than you
are entitled to. Our good deeds do
not deserve reward as a due from
God.
"And in praying use not vain
(that is, 'empty,' meaningless) re-
petitions, as the Gentiles (the heath-
en, non -Jews) do." "For they think
that they shall be heard for their
much speaking." Long prayers are
not here condemned, if only they are
sincere prayers. It is vain repetition
that we are urged to avoid.
"Be not therefore like unto them."
Christ's disciples were not to imitate
the scribes and Pharisees, though
they were the religious leaders of the
day; they were to imitate Christ.
"For your Father knoweth what
things ye have need of, before ye ask
him." God is our loving Father, and
all farthers want their children to rely
upon. them and bring to them their
needs ana desires.
"After this manner therefore pray
ye." To guide his followers in the
true spirit and form of prayer, Jesus
than suggested that matchless prayer
which is in itself a model, a formula,
and a summary of all our rightful
requests. "Our Father who art it
heaven." If we go through Jesus to
God and think of him as Father, and
the particular kind of Father Jesus
conceived him, then every word in
our 'theology must be a household, a
home -like word, and all God's rela•
tions with us will be personal rely. -
tions. "Hallowed be thy name."
Christ teaches you to pray first as a
child, and then as a worshipper.
"Thy kingdom come." There is a
beautiful translation in an old Mora-
vian version of the Scriptures of the
saying bf Gabriel to Mary concerns
ing her Son. It reads in our English
version, 'And of his kingdom there
shall be no end.' "Thy will be done,
as is in heaven, so on earth." If that
were done, it would abolish all the
vice of the world, and therefore the
misery which springs from vice. Ah,
that God's will were but done on
earth as it is in the material heaven
overhead, in perfect order and obed-
ience, as the stars roll in their
courses, without rest.
"Give us this day our daily bread."
The bread problem was with Christ
in the wilderness temptation, as he
fed the five thousand and four, all
through his life. Christ was no
dreamer, he was the greatest realist
that ever lived, the most practical
person that ever set his hand to any
great work in the world.
"And forgive us our debts, as we
also have forgiven our debtors."
Three words are used to point out
that for which we need forgiveness:
debts, what we owe to God; sins, used
in Luke's version of the Lord's Pray-
er, the evil we have done in God's
sight; and trespasses (verse 14), a
word used 'to signify a false step,
sometimes a defeat, and generally a
transgression,
"And bring us not into tempta-
tion, but deliver us from the evil one
(margin, "from evil"). The meaning
of this portion of the Lord's Prayer
is perfectly expressed by Paul (1
Cor. 10:13) : God is faithful, who
will not suffer you to be 'tempted
above that ye are able; but will with
the temptartion make also the way of
escape, that ye may be able to en-
dure it.
"For if ye forgive men their tres-
passes, your Heavenly Farther will
also forgive you." It is not of deep
significance that this clause of the
force? In the words of Martin Luth-
Lord proceeds to explain and en-
force? In he words of Martin Luith-
er, this clause is a token designed to
remind us of the ground or condition
of continued blessing; and, more-
over; when spoken from the heart it
may be regarded as a seal affixed by
Go to the absolution which is desired.
"But if ye forgive not men their
trespasses, neither will your Father
forgive your trespasses," Many per-
sons have desired to find forgiveness,
but have asked for it in vain because
of a spirit of selfish unforgiveness.
Class -Conscious At Age of Four
Four young children, little mare
than babies, stood before the gates
of their kindergarten in Moscow and
quarrelled bitterly.
"You," declared four-year-old Petia
toa weeping little girl of her own age,
"are nothing more than an opportun-
ist element and we should fight
against you."
"I'm not," tearfully replied Iro-
chka.
"Like the teacher said," retorted the
accuser, "you are thrusting a knife
into the back of the world proletar-
iat."
"Mother never lets me touch a
knife," sniffed the tearful infant.
This illuminating conversation
would not have been recorded but
for the fact that a correspondent of
"Pravda," the Russian Communist
daily newspaper, was passing at the
time.
Hardly able to believe his ears he
went in search of the teacher who
had, apparently, accused a baby of
evil designs on world revolutionaries.
He found her. Aged 20, what she
lacked in common sense she made
up in enthusiasm,
All her children, she informed the
reporter proudly, were enrolled as
members of the Society for aviation
and chemical defence, and she had
tried, though with less success, to
make them members of the "Society
for Aid of World Revolution."
Apparently the babies objected to
this.
The young woman had heard noth
ing of the Sdviet Government's re.
cent decrees admonishing teachers tc
remember that children were, even
in Russia, still only children, and
should not be filled with communist
ideology they could not understand
The Government has even ordered
textbooks to be rewritten which will
pay more attention t� fact, and less
to the teaching of Communism.
The reporter asked the teaches
where she got her ideas for the teach.
ing of the young. She showed him i
book which declared that proletarian
children become class-conscious al
the age of four.
Hence, said the book, the revolu.
tionary education of children should
begin at four,
"Preposterous," thought the reporr,
ter, deciding to write to the Cotn
missariat of Education about it,
Then he took another look at tilt
book. On its first page it saidi
"Endorsed by the Commissariat 91
