WOMA Cool Main Dishe N’S PAGE. s for Hot Days BY LYDIA LE BARON WALKER. ‘When days are hot and sultry it is hard for the housewife to know just what to give her family that will be both tempting and nourishing for the main course at dinner. There is a cer- tain satisfaction in having a roast of any sort one day for then the problem of the next day's dinner is solved with cold slices from what is left. If there is not enough meat remain- ing for the family, add slices of other suggested in the recipe given below. It can be given different flavors and different appearances according to the condiments used, and the kinds of molds and garnishes.

If you do not | have either on hand & can of consumme | or chicken broth can be substituted. | Pour enough of the aspic into a mold to line the bottom. When it is nearly stiff, cover well with a layer of cold lamb, sprinkle with salt and pepper and brush with tomato ketchup or Chili sauce. Then sprinkle with minced parsley. Continue filling the mold with | alternate layers of the aspic and the | meat mixture. always seeing that the | aspic 15 nearly stiffened before putting in the meat. Chill on ice, unmold and | garnish the platter with parsley. Cold, freeh peas may be used to surround the meat aspic if preferred. ‘The meats best suited to aspic dishes | are chicken or other fowl, veal and lamb. Pork can be used and boiled beef, beef a la mode, etc. Roast beef that is rare is seldom used, ham is sometimes and tongue frequently. The beauty of the dish consists in the clear- | ness of the aspic, and the arrangemen: |and color of the meat preparation. Other aspic mixtures will be given in | the department if readers write that they wish them. MOTHERS AND THEIR CHILDREN Carrot “Goldfish.” My little girl took a dislike to carrots and I decided that possibly she had had an overdose of them, so when I next served them to the family, I ig- nored her plate. After a few weeks, I cut the carrots long and rather thin, to roughly resemble a fish. Casually I offered her little brother some “Gold- " The name caught her fancy and she eagerly asked if she might have a “Goldfish” too.

In restaurants and hotels a dish of varied kinds of sliced cold meats is served under the name of assorted cold cuts. The as- sortment depends upon the place where such a dish 1s ordered. For instance, fowl is sure to be included at the best places, while* cold fresh pork or veal is substituted where the price is less.

Instead of using the slivers of meat from a roast to make into croquettes, ragouts, stews or hash (all of which are excellent, but must be served hot good), use the small pieces as JOLLY POLLY A Lesson in English.

In the hands given last week, to be played today, dealer holds, in spades, ace, king, 8; hearts, king, 9, 8, 7; dia- monds, king, jack, 5, and clubs, ace, king, 10. West, or second hand, holds, in spades, queen, jack, 10; hearts, 6, 5, 2; diamonds, ace, queen, 10, 4, 2; clubs, 4, 3. North, or third hand, holds, in spades, 6, 4, 3; hearts, queen, 10; diamonds, 8, 7. 3, and clubs, queen, jack, 8, 7, 2. East, or fourth hand, holds, in spades, 19, 8, 7, 2; hearts, ace, jack, 4, 3; monds, 9, 6, and clubs, 9, 6, 5. The auction bidding was one no- trump, and the contract bidding was three no-trumps. We will take up first the opening lead, which, in this hand, would be what is called a blind lead, as the leacer has not heard from his partner, and therefore has only his own hand to be guided by. West would lead from the long ten-ace suit, diamonds, rather than from the short sequence suit of queen, jack, 10 of spades. If the queen, jack. 10 headed a five-card suit, this would be a more desirable suit to lead from than the ace, queen, 10 five-card suit. Therefore, West leads to trick No. 1 the 4-spot of diamonds. Dummy goes down and declarer plans his hands be- fore playing from dummy on the first trick and figures that he will win, in addition to the first diamond trick, two spades, and likely five clubs, but this will make only a total of eight tricks and is one short of game. He can win the second heart trick, but the position of the ace of hearts will be the deter- mining factor in this game. Therefore, it is up to declarer by his play to make the holder of the ace of hearts believe it will be better for him to play, it on second round of hearts than on the t. Declarer plays from dummy the pot of diamonds, East plays the his own hand with the jack of dia- monds. To trick No. 2 declarer leads the ace of clubs from his own hand; West plays the 4-spot; the 2-spot is played from dummy, and East plays the 5-spot. To_trick r¥ . 3 declarer leads from his own hand the king of clubs; West plays the 3-spot, and by the play of the 3-spot finished the signal to his partner that he has no more clubs. He played high and then low. The 7-spot is played mamt dummy, and East plays the 6-spot. To trick No. 4 declarer leads the king of hearts from his own hand, trying to locate the ace of hearts. If West holds the ace of hearts and plays it, it wil make very little difference, oecause the next lead of diamonds would be up to South, who holds the other high dia- mond. West plays, the 2-spot, the 10- spot is played from dummy. East may feel that the queen of hearts is the only entry declarer has in dummi;. and that by this play of the king he was trying to force cut the ace and make the heart entry good. Should this be the case and East plays the 3-spot, Declarer will lead to trick No. 5 the ace of spades, West will play the 10-spot. the 3-spot will be played from dummy and East will play the 2-spot. To trick No. 6 declarer will lead the king of spades, West will play the jack, the 4-spot will be played from dummy and East will play the 7-sp To trick No. 7, declarer leads his 10- spot of clubs, West discards the 5-spot of hearts, and the trick is taken in dummy with the queen of clubs, East playing the 9-spot To trick No. 8 declarer leads from dummy the jack of clubs, East discards the 4-spot of hearts, declarer discards the 7-spot of hearts, and West the 6- spot of hearts. To trick No. 9 declarer leads from dummy the 8-spot of clubs, East dis- [ cards the 8-spot of spades, declarer dis- cards the 8-spot of hearts and west dis- cards the 2-spot of diamonds. This last trick gives declarer his book of six tricks and the three odd necessary to go game, and he sees that all the other tricks are due to go to his op- ponents from now on. ‘When declarer led the king of hearts | from his own hend to trick No. 4, if East had taken the trick, and led a dia- mond back to his partner, he weuld have saved the game, as they would have taken in addition to the heart trick, four diamond tricks, which would | have given them, the opponents, five tricks in all, and this would have left the declarer just one trick short of game. | 6vel ntuls of | The newest discovery in beauty culture is that cremed magnesia beautifies the easy way the im- | pot and declarer takes the trick in| Facial Blemishes. Dear Miss Leeds: I read your column daily and find it very interesting and helpful. I have written to you before, but never received an answer. It will be greatly appreciated if you would be good enough to answer the following questions: 1. My lips_are thick, especially the upper lip. It reaches almost to my nose.

Another exercise: Open the jaws fairl | wide and try to bring the lips together. | Repeat these exercises from 10 to 20 times daily. For the m: e, use a pinching movement between thumb and fingers, being careful not to stretch or pull the lips.

NING STAR, WASHINGTON, D. C., TUESDAY, JULY 15, 1930. Today in Washington History BY DONALD A. CRAIG. July 15, 1807.—Citizens of Washing- ton are participating in the excitement that is sweeping the entire country as the result of the recent forcible deten- tion and search of the United States frigate Chesapeake by a British vessel | just outside the capes of Chesapeake | B: Under the provisions of the mili- | tia law steps have been taken, accord- ing to the announcement in the local in the threatened war with Great Britain. | It is by no means certain, however, that the present difficulties with Eng- land will result in war. While the| young men are seizing their muskets | and drilling in companies in the hope | of a chance of an armed conflict, the | advocates of a peaceful settlement of the matter are hard at work. Many persons believe that they may be able | to postpone war, but contend that if the British keep up their treatment of American vessels and sailors on the high seas, war is certain to come in the end. The militia law for the District was | enacted by Congress five years ago, after | it was discovered that the effort to | organize and maintain volunteer com- | panies ready for service here was not | satisfactory without law behind it. The | law is rather elaborate. Within its | scope all able-bodied white males be- tween the ages of 18 and 45 resident in the District, except officers of the judi- cial, legislative and executive branches of the Federal Government, are liable :1011}” called upon for service in the e Government employes, other than offi- cers, are not exempt. An effort was made in the Senate about three years | | ago to free from militia duty all clerks | in the executive departments, but the | | bill was voted down. The law divided | the District into military districts and | officers for the companies in each dis- | | trict are provided for. It is made the | duty of these officers to see to the en- | rollment of the men into companies in their military districts. Failure to re- spond to the call to company muster is punishable by & fine ranging from 75 cexsns m‘f $5. —— A eizure and sale of personal property is authorized in cases where r,hg nal- ties are not pald.

As Rome grew in richness it grew in luxury. The table became the object of vast expenditures in energy and money. Fine cooks were paid high wages, so that Pliny, another philosopher, was | moved to note that “today a cook costs | as much as a triumph, a fish as much | as a cook, and no mortal cosis more | than the slave who knows best how to | ruin his master.” | ‘Trimalchio, a rich Roman land- owner, was accustomed at the end of the first course of a dinner to have a servant place on the table a silver skel ton cleverly constructed so that it would assume various attitudes. Tri- malchio then would wise-crack: “Of such are we—let us !.ve while we may!" Overeating brought gout and many | kindred diseases to the Romans. “Are| you astounded at our numerous ail- ments?” asked Seneca. “Count the number of our cooks!” Extravagance in dining continued | from the luxurious days of imperial Rome to the magnificent era of Louis XIV, the Grand Monarch in France. His philosophy was expressed in six vords, “One eats well who works well.” | Now, however, the conception of a dinner as a work of art, designed to bring comfort as well as gratification, | s beginning to gain hold. In modern | days the race of true gourmets has looked upon food as an agency for ob- taining temperate F ures, for the re- | lef of our cares, for the solace of our sorrows. | Thus it was—in the time of Loulis/ XVI—that the Marechal de Mouchy, | upon learning of the degth of a near] and dear relative, instructed his cook to appreciate | serve him with two roast pigeons for dinner. @ (per portion 8¢) The perfect breakfast fruit « .. tich in fruit nour ent and mineral salts « « « « deliciously tempting.
