MY DAILY PRAYER Author Unknown "This coming year I'd like to be a friend to everyone; I'd like to feel each clay well spent at setting of the sun; I'd like to know that I have done at least one kindly deed, Before I lay inc clown to sleep that I have given heed— To some one's cry for sympathy, or friendship or that I Have made the day seem brighter to some chance passer-by, And that the world is better still in. just some little way, Because I've tried to live the very best ' I could each day, "I'd like to 'be a ray of light whets skies are overcast, I'd like to help someone who failed to blot out all the past, To start again despite the storms, and find the skies are blue, To know that in this good old world. there's lots that's fine and true, I'd like to be the kind of person every- one will love, And make the world seem just a little- more like heaven above; I'd like in all my dealings to be true' and just and fair, That God _will help me do these things shall- be my daily prayer."

The butterfat or cream of milk is high in fuel for the body, but we have sub- stitutes in large amounts, in the meats and vegetable oils that we use. Thus, skim milk, buttermilk, cottage cheese, are the foods to maintain health and reduce the grocery budget. Here are vine reliable buttermilk recipes—or if whole milk ,turns sour, don't throw out this expensive food, but substitute it for buttermilk in the following recipes: BUTTERMILK SCONES 2 cups flour, 3 tbsps. butter, 1/2 tsp, soda, 1/ tsp. salt, 2 tbsp. brown sugar, % cup raisins if de- sired, 1 egg, buttermilk to moisten (about 814 cup.) Sift the dry ingredients, Cut in the butter evenly and mix in the raisins. Beat the egg and add one -half cup of buttermilk. Stir into the dry ingred- ients with enough more buttermilk to make a soft dough. Divide in half and roll each piece of dough in circular shape about one-half inch thick. Out in quarters, but do not separate the piec- es, Bake in a hot oven about 15 mins. BUTTERMILK SALAD DRESSING 11/2 tbsps. sugar, 1 tsp. tard, 3/2 tsp. salt, few grains cay- enne pepper, 11/2 tbsps. of flour, 114 tsp. onion salt .if desired, 11/2 tbsps. butter, 1 cup buttermilk, 114 cup vinegar or lemon juice, 2, eggs. Mix the dry ingredients. Add the slightly beaten eggs and buttermilk. Cook over boiling water until the mix- ture thickens, then add the butter and stir in the vinegar or lemon juice very slowly. If the dressing has a curdled appearance, if may be remedied by beating vigorously with a Dover egg beater. This dressing is delicious with vegetable and fish salads. BUTTERMILK CHOCOLATE CAKE 1 cup brown sugar, 1 cup but- termilk or sour milk, 6 tbsps, co- coa, 4 tbsps, butter, 1 egg, 1V2 cups flour,- it tsp. soda, 1 t.sp. bak- ing powder. Cream butter,.add the sugar and well beaten egg. Sift together the aly in- gredients and add alternately with the bUttermilk to the first mixture.

BUTTERMILK PANCAKES 112 cup milk, 1 cup buttermilk or sour milk, 1i cups flour, 2 113 • tsp. baking powder, 113 tsp. soda, salt, 1 egg yolk, 1 egg white, 2 tbsps. melted butter. . . ,r Sift together the flour, lialchig pow-. INIMININIMBI.N. der, salt and soda. Combine. sweet and sour milk. Add the unbeaten egg yolk and the sifted dry ingredients, then ,add the melted butter and beat thoroughly, Fold in the stiffly beaters egg white and cook on a hot greased iron pan. Serve with lemon syrup or maple syrup. TAKE A TIP 1. ,Mashed bananas added to beaten egg whites, make a good substitute for whipped cream. 2. When making applesauce cake, grate the apples instead of cooking them. In that way no water is add- ed ant the full flavour of the apple is retained, 3, The electric mixer whose beaters can be moved into the kettle of pot- atoes, pot of squash, • fresh apple- sauce or curdling custard is a great . time-saver. It whips food to a vel- vety smooth consistency, 4.A dover beater causes plenty of spatters which can be prevented if you cut a hole in a paper plate and slip it over the top of the beaters. .
