Four generations
Four generations of lovely ladies were gathered Friday evening at
the home of Mr. and Mrs. Gordon Hodgins. On the left is Mrs. Ethel
Squire, Granton, mother of Mrs. Norman Hodgins, Whalen„ seated
next holding her granddaughter, Susan Kilpatrick. Standing at back
is Susan's mother, Mrs. Larry Kilpatrick, daughter of Mrs. Hodgins.
other day, I came across a folder
all about cotton, It contained an
armful of the most helpful and
informative data I've read in
sometime, so I pass some of it
along to you this week.
Most exciting of all the
information was the word that
wearing cotton may be one way
to keep healthy.
Apparently, medical
researchers have discovered that
viruses do not live as long on
cotton as they do on other
fabrics. While a virus may live
for three months on some
fabrics, it will only last about
three days on cotton.
Even more startling, if the
cotton is treated with a wash
and wear chemical, the virus
only lives one day!
For the gals who do a great
deal of sewing, cotton offers a
bevy of colors and patterns in
purse-pleasing prices. The fabric
is so easy to work with, and in
recent years, cotton has become
popular as an all-season
wardrobe material.
Many fall and winter fashions
are designed for cotton fabrics.
Not only are they available in
many pleasing styles, most are
completely washable. Some
never need ironing!
One little hint! If you sew at
home and have trouble with
cotton garments that become
puckered around the zipper after
one washing, soak zippers in
warm water and dry them flat

before stitching them into a

Ifyou happen to own a
cotton velvet garment which is
beginning to look a little doudy,
raise the nap like new by placing
the article in the dryer with two
damp bath towels. Tumble for
about five minutes at, a moderate
temperature. Remove the velvet
item and hang it up until

Judging by the number of
persons who told me they
intended to try the recipe for a
supper casserole 'minted in last
week's column, I'd suspect that
plain, wholesome dishes are still
most popular with homemakers.
In these days of instant,
frozen, packaged and canned
foods, we sometimes forget how
good home cooking can taste,
especially in cool weather.
Do you readers have any
more proven casserole recipes?
Why not share your favorite and
get a new favorite to try?

For any of you planting
spring-flowering bulbs this fall (I
may be ahead of some of you
since I planted mine last week)
you may appreciate a few
reminders.
Experience has proven that
bulbs should be planted four
inches deep in areas where
winter is mild, but deeper
in colder northern areas. Six
inches of soil should cover the
bulbs if annuals are to be
planted over them for the
summer.
Spacing of the bulbs will
depend on the desired effect. A
minimum of four inches apart is
best for clumps in the border.
Wider spacing is desirable for
formal beds.
The beds should be covered
with a mulch of straw, leaves or
peat for the winter. Four inches
of mulch, applied about the time
the ground freezes, will prevent
deep freezing and help maintain
uniform soil temperature.
It should be removed very
early in the spring to allow the
young leaves to develop.
Here's a recipe that comes
from Mrs. Hugh Morenz, RR 2
Dashwood, for a tasty snack to
tuck in a lunch box. She tells me
these Blonde Brownies are
simply delicious — and a favorite
at her house.
Blonde Brownies
1/4 cup shortening
1 cup brown sugar, packed
1 egg
3/4 cup sifted all-purpose flour
1 tsp. baking powder
1/2 tsp. salt
1/2 tsp. vanilla
1/2 cup chopped nuts
Heat over to 350 degrees.
Melt shortening, remove from
heat and add brown sugar. Stir
and set aside to cool.
Add egg and beat well. Add
sifted dry ingredients and blend
well.
Stir in vanilla and nuts.
Spread in a greased 8-inch square
pan. Bake 25 minutes.
