WOM AN’S PAGE. THE EVENING STAR: WASHINGTON, D. C., TUESDAY, J Chowder and Other Kinds of Soup BY LYDIA LE BARON WALKER. / In Midwinter when the thermometer | registers low and the air is chill, one dish that is particularly welcome is hot | soup. In climes where seasons are re- | versed, these same soups are found re- | freshing if icy cold. So, whatever the | thermometer registers, soup is welcome. It can form the main dish for a meal if it is & hearty chowder, which re- | quires to be served hot to be satisfying. | STy i~2o0- 31 OLD-FASHIONED SOUP PLATES ARE RETURNING TO FAVOR. It is only the thin soups such as con- sommes and broths that are appetizing ‘when chilled. Chowders can be made from fish or vegetables. Corn chowder is, by some considered as delicious as clam chowder. Lobster chowder is more of a rarity. while what is known as fish chowder is the most usual. It can be made from almost any kind of fresh fish, newly cooked, or from cold boiled fish. The Pl thriftiest way to make the chowder is to use the head of a good sized fish, such | as cod. The foundairon for any chowders consists of diced salt pork fried out in the fish kettle over a very low fire. If the family prefer butter, it can be used instead of the salt pork, but it lacks the zest of the pork. In this fry sliced cnion. Add a little flour and the liquor of clams, or water for other chowders. If a fish chowder is made the fish is prepared by boiling and shredding. If clams are the shell fish used, remove shells and heat the chop- ped clams in their own liquor. If lobster or crabs are used shred the meat. Potatoes are alwavs used in chowders, and milk forms the chief liquid. Corn kernels will give substance to a corn chowder. Rolled crackers are apt to be put into clam chowder. A chow- der is best when slightly thickened either with flour or crackers. It should not_be heavy like creamed dishes The old-fashioned soup vla turning to favor. They are particul good to use for chowders which are so hearty that they deserve such con- tainers. For bouillons and thin soups the bouillion cups are best (Copyright, 1931.)

Investing money In a relative's busi- ness rarely pays. The fact is sad, but it might as well be recognized. Usually a man or woman will go to strangers with propositions in an effort to interest them financially. If they fail, they turn | next to their rel hoping that fam- ily ties will influence judgments. If a woman could talk over a business feeling that when they are able and willing to repay 1t is time enough Needless to say, this is far from satis- 'y to a woman who may feel an urgent need of her money When relatives wish to borrow, their only collateral is customarily their word. | Had they any real collateral to offer, a bank could probably have been found to make the loan. Of course, it is all right to accept the word of an honor- able man or woman, but if the funds one loans cannot be spared. a werd is not like way, vestment she might make a profitable occasionally. The fact is 1f she is candid, some offense is a certainty. Her inquiries must be made in a congenial way, and she cannot challenge as freely as she should cn quesstionable points.

There may also be a discrep- ancy between what one is willing to pay and what one is able to pa In the general run of cases, relatives turn to us for money when banks and calculating business men have sat in judgment on them. After weighing the facts, they have come to the conclusion that money loaned would be subject to an undue risk.

What should it be Necessarily it must be white or some of the off-white shades. Polly chose an ivory transparent velvet. She might have chesen a heavy white silk or satin, The wrap must be loose since it should not_disarrange nor crush the wedding hidden beneath it. The wrap may be furred with a fluffy fox collar or with ermine or left collarless with a softly draped effect about the neck. | St. Paul's Cathedral, London, was be- gun and finished within 40 years, under one Bishop of London, one architect and one master mason.

It the baby's bed stands parallel to the mother’s, the chances are that she will insist the baby is a poor sleeper. What reallv happens is thas with bads 50 close the mother hears every tiny whimper, and her own sleep is 8o dis- turbed that she exaggerates the baby's wakefulness. After a sick spell the mother often notices that the baby is sleeping poorly, despite his renewed good health. No doubt he is sleeping as well as he ever did, but with his mother’s ears sharp- ened by anxiety she hears every move and imagines baby is not sleeping well. Babies and aduits seldom enjoy unin- terrupted slumber. They turn and twist and change their positions a dozen times at night. It is the anxious mother who insist§ upon doing something for ! the baby every time she hears him rustling about, who wakens him so com- pletely that he acquires the habit of | waking. It is better for bably that he becomes accustomed early in life to long sleep- ing hours at night and a minimum of feedings. Well fed babies seldom waken to be fed at night. It is always the hungry baby whose daytime feedings are ~unsatisfactory, who keeps his mother on the hop half of the night. Small babies learn better sleeping habits if they have a room of their own, as well as their own beds, from | the day of birth. The small whimper- ings any baby may make, the talking he may do to himself in the middle of the night will not disturb the parents if they are in another room. Any large |ery will be heard and will win the necessary attention. Every baby is entitled to his own | bed, whether a basket or a large sized | |box or a crib. One or another can always be managed, in which he can | be kept snug and warm with covers | that are suited to his own small frame | and are warm and light in weight. To put a baby in bed with his parents |is to make all three of them miserably uncomfortable. We hear less of babies | being smothered to death only because the modern parent understands her re- sponsibilities for furnishing her baby with a bed of his own. A tiny baby | between two heavy adults is constantly | in danger of being rolled on or smoth- | ered against them and unable to move |or_get air. | Mothers would do well to make charts | of their babies' sleeping hours and | check them against some good sleeping | schedule. We have one which indicates \the usual number of hours the baby, | slceps, and may be had for a self-ad- | | dressed, stamped envelope and & request | |for the “Sleeping Schedule” leaflet. | Then, with this as a guide, mothers should remember that all babies differ to some small degree. If the baby is| obviously well and happy, fewer hours | of sleep daily than are indicated on the | schedule would not be of much signifi- cance. Chocolate Doughnuts.

The Woman Who Makes Good BY HELEN WOODWARD, Who started her career as a frightened typist and who became one of the highest paid business women in America. Are You Bored? I once had a very pretty stenographer who dressed well. Any one could see that she was interested in clothes and had some taste in colors and style. But when I dictated to her articles and advertisements about next year's fashions she took no interest at all. As | a part of my work I had to know about these fash- ions before they were published in the newspapers or magazines, and it was just the kind of thing she wanted to know about. Yet she was clearly bored by it and wrote down her dictation mechan- jeally. I would sometimes ask her what she thought of | this or that style that I was describing, and she would smile politely—she was an awfully nice, good naturede girl—and look startled. She hadn't listened to | the meaning of what I was saying but had put down mechanical signs in her notebook. She knew shorthand so well that she always transcribed her notes flawlessly, to my amazement, because she never remembered & word of what | she had written the next day. | Now why did this girl act like that when she would spend her lunch hours | wandering around the dress depart- ments of the big stores seeing what the new styles wera? The reason is simple. She had wanted to be & dressmaker. But she thought being a stenographer more genteel. Very silly. But not so unusual. Well, she resented having to work in_an office; so she built a wall around her- self when she was in the office and never let any office interest reach her over that wall. Helen Woodwa: ©On the other hand she was never able to climb that wall herself and make any | progress. She remained a stenographer. | Later when I had to have better as-' sistance T got a secretary and this girl | T've been telling you about became my secretary’s stenographer. Yet I assure | you that if she had pulled down that wall she might have been my secretary | herself. | Her case is not unusual. There are | | thousands of girls working in stores | who do not want to be saleswomen; My Neighbor Says: When frying onions always put a saucepan lid over the top of the frying pan to keep in the steam and flavor. This also makes the onions cook more quickly. Glass dishes and lamp globes when new should be put in & large pan with cold water to cover them; then place the pan on the stove and let the water very slowly come to a boil. By doing this the glass will last longer and will stand the heat better. China can be treated in the same way. White kid gloves should be rubbed gently with bread crumbs after each wearing and they will keep clean a long time. It may save you many failures to know that a fruit cake mixture must be stiff enough for the spoon to stand in it. | b there are thousands of girls working tn offices who do not want to be there But as long as you are there and as long as you have to be there. why not make the best of it and work up an interest in what you're doing? 1t's the only way, except getting another job, to get ahead. It's the only way to get any fun out of your work A brilliant poet, Samuel Hoffenstein, told me that years ago he had to do a particularly trying job of publicity. He hated it and he suffered, but he decided to treat it as a game, part of the game of life. He found that the way to do that was to give it the best he had in him-—to pretend that it was of great importance, and treating it that way he worked up his own interest in it, had an exciting time, and, as every one in New York knows, made & success of it ‘That's the way to handle a job that bores you.
