RELICS SEEN AT FORT GRISWOLD Dear Sisters of the Social Corne: In my last letter 1 promised to tall the relics I saw at Groton which have been collected by the D. A R. There were two life size pictures of Mother EBailey, . who, vou remember, gave her red petticoat to the Revolu- tionary soldiers for wadding for thef guns. Her china was also in a glaes case. It was of a straw color Wwith the picture of a cow on each piece. Other articles which had belonged to {her were a Bible, a quilt made from her plaid dress, and a pair of kil gloves. In this case was a large blue platter which consisted of two parts, the under part being the larger, with a hollow at_one end for the gravy, called a beefsteak platter. In another case was a pewter tea sei. Old guns, one being a flintlock, filled another case, while in_another was a real red coat which had belonged to a PBritish soldier and was found af- ter the war and kept,as a_curiosity. There is a memorisl window repre- senting a_ boy taking & gun from a British soldier, his hotse standing by, of sugar, and one-fourth cup of hotand the army in the distance, the story Stir well, then set as beaten to a Stiff froth. chill.

Dear Social Corner Sisters: A large number of Cornerites attended the pic- nic at the home of C. E. S., Wednes- dav, August lst, although Old Sol gave us a rather warm welcome,and made the mercury run up high. The shady, spacious lawn and aburilance of cold orangeade kept us fairly com- fortable. The decorations were nice and the music_interesting. A game of croquet was enjoyed by some, but the intense heat kept most of us in the shade. The table was loaded with eatables from venison pie to coffee. The Bul- letin's ice cream was served very gen- erously and tasted as good as it look- ed. The day was especially interesting to me, hecause of fond associations. My parents lived on an adjoining farm for a number of years untll my fath- er passed awa L. H. K. and T have spent many pleasant moments at C. E. S.s home in our youthful days. It is a pret- ty place, with a large, roomy house, plehsantiy situated on a hill where one can lool off for many miles. The pretty drive over from Willi- mantic recalled to my mind the many times T had passed over this same road.with my father and mother. We passed by the old village schoolhiouse and the dear old church which nestles so cozily among the surround- ing hills. Here my sister and I were baptized. It is all very sacred to me and nothing pleases me more than to visit occasionally the scenes of my childhood. SPRY BIRD. CAN BERRIES WITHOUT SUGAR Pear Social Corner Sisters: The Knickerbockers are still here. We met at Mrs. Katzenjam’s last Wednesday and had a lovely time listening to the music and enjoving the breeze which was hard to find elsewhere that day. Mrs, Katzenjam—Wish I had some more of that dinner right now! Do yvon know that berries and peaches can be canned without sugar; can aX_ vsual; but leave out the sug- ar. 2 : DUACHY.

Best wishes from NARRAGANSETT. HONEY AND ITS USES IN THE HOME. Dear Social .Corner Sisters: Honey is mot often used in bread making, but there is no reason why it may not be used in yeast bread as fooC for the veast plaxt, or be substituted for mo- lasses, or sugar, in varietles of bread which call for such sweetening. A few receipes are here give Bran Brown Bread: One cup of white flour, one teaspoon soda, one- fourth teaspoon salt, one cup bran, one-half cup , one cup sour milk, one-half _cup ins, floured. Sift to- gether the flour, soda, and afid gredients. Steam for three hours, bake for forty minutes. eamed Brown Bread: One cup of yellow corn ‘meal, two cups graham flour, two-thirds cup honey, two cups’ sour milk, one teaspoon salt, one ana one-half cups honey, two cups or I sour milk, one teaspoon salt. one and one-half teaspoons soda, one table- spoon boiling water, one cup seeded raiising. Mix together the flour and salt, add the sour milk and the honey and then the soda dissolved in the oiling water: and the raisins. Steam for three hours in covered re ceptacles, which should be not of the cooking. Honey Bread: Two cups honer amon seed, cup brown suzar. two egg volks. Sift er ingredients. Put the dough about an inch and bake in a hot oven. Honey and Nut Sandwiche the honey with pecan meats or al- monds - minced, and make into sand- wiches with small baking powder bi: cuits. EASTER LILY. CUT DOWN THE MEAT. Dear Social Corner Sisters: It wise plan to lessen the amount meat used in the hot weather. American families or three times a day: the amount used, efther by less often or by using les Deficiency at ous materials as eggs, milk, and beans are used instead. calities n lo- substitute meat for the riety as well as economy. Ingenious cooks have many of .“extending the flavor” of meat, that is, of combining a small quanti- ty_ with other materials to make similar dishes. MOUNTAIN LAUREL. TOO HOT FOR COMFORT. Dear Social Corner Friends: It is so terribly warm everywhere at this time that it is almost impossible to sit still and write. My heart has ached with sympathy for many suffering ones in crowded tenements with no shady lawns to rest upon. Poor little children with no room in their homes and no chance to play out of doors on the green grass: where the houses are so close together that scarcely a space for them can be found except in the street. How they must suffer this weather. This is the time that iries the strength and vitality of _the busy housewife and the devoted mother of a family. She owes it not only to her family Dut to herself that she takes proper care of herself. She must not overexert herself in the heated kitch- en. She must studv to make the meals as simple as possible Many iinds of. food can be pre- pared in the early morning before the heat gets excessive so that she need not have to use heat much in the middle of the day.® With plenty of rich, cold milk and crackers, or some of the many prepared foods in the market. a more satisfying meal, with mother cool and cheerful, instead of tired and fretful. with a hot meal Wwhich it has taken hours to prepare, will be enjoxzé—bv all and be more beneficial to the whole family, and perhaps add years to the mothers jite. 5 AUNT MARY. FOR BROWN BEE’ BIRTHDAY CAKES. Dear Social Corner Sisters: Kkind it was of so many Sisters member me with cards on my birth- day! T am sure I don't deserve it, for it"has been over a year since I have written to The Corner. Two Sisters write that they have birthdays on the same day. I am wondering if they were born in 1890, too! We entertained a party of nine on my birthday and had a very pleasant time. T am going to send recipes of the two cakes and salad which formed Ppart of the good things we had to eat: The Sunshine Cake was very pretty with its two yellow layers and one white in the center. I used a boiled white of egg frosting and decorated the top with blanched almonds ar- ranged in the shape of daisies with a bit of yeliow icing for the centers. The 27 little vellow an white candles in the vellow and white rosebud holders ‘completed the birthday cake. In color it was truly a Social Corner cake.
