. e WwWOoM AN’S PAGE, Special Uses of Cooked Potatoes BY LYDIA LE BARON WALKER. ‘ Many requests have come in for the Fecipes offered for the preparation and dainty serving of left-over potatoes, those which remain purposely because the housewife has found it easy to cook two days' supply at one time. The following recipes have the merit of being unusual. Potato Pudding.—As this recipe re- ™ AT o e o WAL KB R0 THE PIE IS SERVED AS A VEGETA- BLE WITH THE MAIN COURSE. quires cold mashed potatoes, they may be mashed the first day and be put away so, or they can be put through & ricer or mashed the second day. ‘To each two cups of mashed potato well moistened with milk add two ‘tables uls flour, two level table- spooni butter, one rounded table- spoonful finely minced onion, one level tablespoonful minced sweet pepper and one beaten egg.. One egg will suffice Equipment 'HE minute you see bathing suits everywhere you can imagine the relaxation and enjoyment in the offing at_the seashore. Well, you won't have all you should unless you prepare for it. Don’t just take along & blanket and a pillow and think youll be comfortable, You will glance down the line and see others lolling comfortably in cabanas or under huge parasols and your heart will sink. The cakank is the gift of the gods to the seashore addict. This little canvas _hut,-made often of gayly striped awn- ing material, has its one side that opens to the sea, and often its top opens to the sun. You can lle in comfort in perfect seclusion, hear the waves roar and feel the sun burn all at_once. . Whatever t; of cabana you have, 1t should be big enough to hold an army cot. These fold up to small carrying size, and open to comfortable regulation length. Made of canvas, they are cool and do not give. Of course you will want some pillows to loll against a bit. Well, have them of washable materials—oilcloth, glazed chintzes, rubberized silks and novelty fabrics. You might have a number of sizes and shapes to give variety. One should be an air cushion for supreme comfort under your head. Don't forget that the color of your cushions is important. If you know that a certain color and your own com- plexion are sworn enemies, cultivate something friendlier, even if it isn't quite so gay. The psychological effect of knowing that your background is harmonious has a comforting effect on overstrained nerves. You will not want to lie down in the shade all the time, and lolling among_pillows tires you. Therefore, you will be interested in the new types of beach chairs. Some of the new ones fold up neatly, but opened they have gay red, black or other colored seats and backs against which you can lean comfortably. If you are in the habit of going to the beach in your car and are not staying there or renting a cabana, you will need s huge parasol which can be opened to cover you completely. ‘You might well look at the new fold- ing round seats and table, which are comfortable as can be and yet snap together to look like a round basket about s foot tall. They are of wicker, or leather, and the two disks of the seat and back are held together with gs. If you get these, you will like the low table for your refreshments. Your glasses won't tip over on one of these.

SPROWLS. | Motor Accidents. | Motor accidents have in recent years | become 8o frequent as to turn public | attention upon them. It is now known that many of these accldents are not real accidents. In other words, what goes for an “accident” is, in many cases, a mishap with a history. And the his- tory sometimes reaches back for years. If you are talking about accidents, pure and simple, you have in mind something that will occur now and then in spite of ordinary care in driving. Moreover such accidents will be dis- f!l:;x‘:ed impartially among the driving public. | If you are talking about what are called “accidents,” there are some ar- resting facts that should cause us to think twice. When, for example, nearly 50 per cent of the “accidents” in a selected group of 200 truck drivers “happened” to roughly 20 per cent of the group, the idea that “accidents will happen” be- gins to look silly. Many drivers have psychopathic per- sonalities and don’t know it. Others suffer from what is called psychoneu- rosis and don't t it. And still others have taints of epllepsy, which makes for careless driving. One of these days the history of per- sonality deficit will be taken into con- sideration_in the issuance of driving permits. When this is done “accidents™ will be cut down to something like 60 per cent of their present frequency. At least the statistics seem to point that vay. i (Copyright. 1931.) at Seashore backs to be had which let you sit in the sand but give you something to lean against. And by all means take something for sun shade. Last, but not least, take some kind of a blanket or spread to sit on. For sand’ is all right in its place. That isn't in any food you may be eating, or your clothes. None of these beach comforts is terribly expensive. They can be had at almost any department store or sports shop. They are worth their price. ‘When you realize that you are going down to the sea in comfort you will be twice as anxious to go. Instead of re- membering how the sand got in the food, and the sun glared down on_the white, white sand and the blue, blue water until your head spun, you will remember how cool it was in your specially protected part of the beach. You won't gaze at the game tables and wish that your vacation cards could be played at home. You will know that you can hold just as good a hand on the beach, maybe better! My Neighbor Say: ‘To remove grease or oil spots from clothing, specially light suits, mix a little fuller's earth into a paste, spread it over the solled part and allow the mix- ture to dry thoroughly. In do- ing so it draws and absorbs the grease, ‘Then take a stiff brush, which will quickly remove the dried earth. The result will be Ppleasing. Eggs covered with boiling water and allowed to stand for five minutes are more easily di- gested than eggs placed in boil- ing water *and allowed to boll furiously for three minutes. Save all celery tops and dry them in oven. They can then be crushed and stored ina bag for future use in flavoring soups, sauces and dressings. flavor is better than cel salt. ‘When children’s shoes, tie st in bow first, then the loops in a single knot.

Milk to drink. lummell in morning—Glass of orange juice. ’ Lunch—A choice of one of each of the following: Finely chopped mes fish or chicken, egg, cottage cheese, bread or potato, green vegetables (any variety), pudding made with milk, or milk to drink. Supper—Same as breakfast, plus s dish of stewed fruit. ‘The night meal is more nutritious if composed of cereal or baked potato or ripe banana, plus the milk to drink, than if composed of vegetables. The a better preparation leep thamthe latter. The hungry child who eats lightly at each meal may have a midmeal lunch in the afternoon, a small cupful of milk and two plain crackers. Omit this if it spoils the appetite for supper. Our leaflets, “Week's Menu for the Child From 1 Year to 18 Months” and “Diet Prom 2 to 4 Years” are helpful in your selection of well balanced menus for each day. Either or both of these leaflots may be obtained by sending a self-addressed, stamped envelope with the request of any reader. In hot weather cut amounts of food in half and never force the child to eat. Such a policy avoids trouble. NANCY PAGE Floors Wear New Paint With Grace and Charm.

Carman was one of the few girls who came out with- out any idea of becoming a star. She did not even expect to act. Or, per- haps, she had a secret idea in her little head, but no one else thought of it.

These were often writ- ten by young people who said, “See how]wlc:: We Are And in their novels modern young people say the same thing. 1In th tracts they used to add, reformed.” And today they add, “Bet- ter reform us quickly or the world will come to an end.” ‘Well, anyway, Carman Barnes wrote the book and it sold well.
