Dear Social Corner Sisters: Sister Wiltwyck was very fortunate in the hoice of a date for her picnic, as une 26th was a most beautiful day— perfect day for an outing and a large number of the Sisters from sur- rounding towns took advantage of the ne weather to motor out vycke's pretty home. A few came on foot, and _while I eard one South Coventry Sister say he wouldn’t have walked had sne nown how far it was, I still believe he would do it over again, if no ther means of transportation was vailable. While we were getting ready that little girl said to me: Mamma, why don't the other Social ‘orner Sisters have children?” She found out that day th4t some of hem at least, have, for there were to Wilt- fourteen children, from babies up to ig boys and girls, present There were also about 40 grown-ups o it made a goodly gathering under he trees, to make passersby wonder what was going on.

SARAH ANN TIGHE 'THE MEETING WITH WILTWYCKE. Dear Social Cornerites: For many weeks I have had it in mind to write for The Corner, but the convenient opportunity did not come, so now I will tell the Sisters what a good time they missed. The weather was all that could be desired for an outing in the country, and the journey was pleasant, as we traveleq alongside a pretty view; the roadside was bordered by fresh green spring growth of grassand ferns, bush and tree. Ere long we reached the place where Old Glory waved a wel- come to us and yellow bows were con- spicuous and Wiltwyck' came out and greeted us in her cordial way and made us feel at home. ., We took possession of the lawn, in the shade of green boughs; we sat and chatted and tatted and knit to our hearts' content until we heard the strains of “America”'from the grapho- phone, which served to announce that dinner was to follow. Our ride, or walk, gave us keen ap- petites, so thie many good things— scalloped potatoes, salads, sandwiches pickles, cake and _excellent coffee— quickly disappeared. Then we had to inspect the thrifty sgardens, ‘which showed much care and a promise of a bountiful supply of all sorts of vegetables in return for labor bestowed. The time seemed to. quickly come when we must leave this . pleasant place and’ speed away to our own homes. We thank our hostess for her cor- dial hospitality and all she did to make the day one long to be remefn- bered. Mary France, Althea and Rat- tlebox assisted her. About forty were present. Wo hope to see many familiar faces (also tHose that are mot) at our re- union at Coventry lake this month. We will try ‘and not have the date conflict with any other gathering so our Norwich ' Sisters may meet with us. THEODA. A PLEASANT TROLLEY RIDE. Dear Social Corner Friends: As we all cannot take a vacation of a week or more at a time, and all do not pos- an automobile, why not look resting trolley trips and take them | in; when the opportunity occurs? iave one in mind now which I have been | over several times and always find interesting. Just suppose we start the trip at Wildwood park, which is a very pretty Alexander's lake, then through the quiet vi on past the pretty park in Danielson, after which we follow the Quinebaug river for a ways, then throuzh fhe very shady and neat village of Wau- regan, on to Central Village, where we change to the Norwich car. Next in line is Plainfleld, where there is a |very large manufacturing plant. Be- | fore reaching Jewett City we pass| Tadpole pond, whose surface at this | time of year is nearly covered with lovely pond lilies. After leaving Jew ett City we have the Quinebaug with us again, on our left this time, and on our right a solid mass of rocks| several feet high, throush which a j tunnel has been made at one place for the cars to pass throush. It is nice farming land all the way, see no de- serted farms or tumbled-down bifild- ings, and every village has a larze manufacturing plant. ¥ Finally we arrive at the “Rose of New England,” which is the home of | The Bulletin, and after a good dinner | and a bargain hunt at the many stores | we return home, tired, but feeling that the day was ‘well spent. And last—but not least—would like to say that on this trip we pass' the pretty home of Primrose and sl wondering all the way if Aunt Mary's home is visible from the car, als we came in view of the homes of any more of the Social Corner Sisters? Hope someone will suggest other nice rides. On this trip, look to the east for the home of TWICE TWENTY. LIKES THE GOOD CHEER GOSPEL. Dear Social Cornerites: I liked “the g00d cheer gospel” letter written by Joe’s Brother. 1 suppose cheerfulness is natural to some people, and an acquirement with others. It ‘is the atmosphere of a good mind, and the promoter of a 500d digestion. Cheerfulness is sister to good humor, which is said to be the health of the soul. ‘We cannot be religious if we cease to count our blessings and fret and fume over our trials and affictions. God doesn't lend himself to the pro- motion of our discomfort. He has put a blessing in évery day for you and I —and more. We make our own bur- dens by neglecting to appreciate divine truth. - 'We do not do what we should when we are weary and heavy laden, if we did, He would give us rest. His sunshine every day gives us life and sustenance and hope and His daily bounty should put sunshine in our hearts. It makes all the difference in the world whether of lifé we make a gar- land or a yoke. Cheerful "people can laugh out of sight half the grievances which harass the world and if life is an empty bub- ble they manage to see the rainbow in the bubble. RUTH. WHEATLESS CAKE. Dear Social Cornmer Sisters: These wheatless cakes have been greatly commended and accepted by the gov- ernment. They make good cake: Corn Flour Sponge Cake: eggs, one cup sugar, one cup flour, two tablespoons lefiion juice, one-eighth teaspoor salt. Separate the whites and volks of esgs. Beat the yolks until thick and light lemon color. Beat sugar into the stiffened volks, then add the lemon juice and |salt. Fold in alternately the stifly beaten whites and flour. Bake in an ungreased pan for thirty-five or forty minutes. Start in a moderate oven and when about half dode raise the temperature to that of a hot oven. Rice Flour and Barley Flour Choco- late Cake: One-haif cup fat, two- thirds cup sugar, thrée esgs, one cup syrup, three-fourths cup = milk, one teaspoon salf, one cup rice flour, two cups barley flour, six teaspoons bak- ing powder, onc teuspoon cinnamon, Four corn up | Sis jin clothes. Fold in well beaten egg white. Bake about one hour in a moderately hot oven. You can only learn their merits by trying them. HANNAH WHO. A BIRTHDAY CAKE. Dear Sistars of The Social Corner: T have enjoved The Social Corner ever since it was organized, especially the recipes and talks about flowers and birds, as I am very fond of all out- door life. I wonder if we are all using as lit- tle wheat as possible. I am always looking for new wheatless recipes. T made a birthday cake today which was pronounced fine. Barley Nut Cake: One cup sugar, one-half cup fat, one cup sour milk, volk of one egg, two and one-quarter cups barley flour, one cup nuts, one- half teaspoen soda, one teaspoon bak- ing powder, one teaspoon sait. I was one of the fortunate ones to attend the Cottage Cheese Luncheon given by the Farm Bureau last week and it certainly was surprising how good everything was; and I have had 10 try some of the recipes in my own home. Miss Roberts, who has _the oversight of New England in these cottage cheese demonstrations was present and told how when she chose New England as her field the head ones in Washington asked her why she did that, for New England was always so slow to adopt new ideas. She said it was not proving slow this time, and would surely “go over the top” in this as in other things. This was the thirt t cheese luncheon she had attended in New England. Here's hoping that all of us will do our very best in all the different branches of work there are during these war times. 5 A FARMERESS. GREETINGS FROM PEGGY ANNE.

Dear Social Corner Sisters: As one of those who were fortunate enough to receive an invitation to the cettage cheese luncheon given under the au- spices of the home economics depart- ment of the farm bureau in Norwich last week, I thought some of the rest of you might enjoy hearing abeut it, too. In the first place, as I have always disliked cottage cheese, it,was some- thing of an ordeal. in anticipation, for me to sit down to a luncheon cemposed entirely of cottage cheese dishes, but at the close of that delicious meal I must confess myself a convert. This was the menu: Cottage Cheese Peanut Soup. Cottage Cheese Sausage. Potatoes and Cottage Cheese Cream Sauce Relish. Cottage Cheese Salad. Rolls. Cottage Cheese Tart. Coffee, While we were lingering over our coffee cups, there was some pleasantly informal speechmaking, which I will try to pass on to you, in part.

Cottage cheese may be used as a meat substi- tute in soups and also makes an ap- petizinz_loaf. The cheese salad was combined with tomato and ‘lettuce and, of course, tasted like “more’—besides making such a pretty color scheme. The tart was composed of small sweetened crackers over which were scattered small dice of pineapple and whole strawberriez, with _cottage cheese disguised, till it looked and tasted like frothy cream, sproad over the whole. Miss Morse said that this dessert was only a mere suggestion of hat might be made in sweets, using fruits and gelatine.

With the idea of using such valuable products, the cottage cheese campaign has been organized 2il over the coun- try, and is showing splendid results. Miss Hayes of Storrs college told ahout a ten-course luncheon she had attended, cottage cheese in some mew and eur- prisingly delicious form, adding’ that recipes of good things to be made from cheese are innumerable, The subject of canning was briefly dwelt upon and, by the way, the quota for Connecticut housewives this sum- mer i§ 5000000 cans. We must all learn to budget our time. “Can, talk food and cottage cheese, and keep up our Red Cross work!” is'a goed slogan for us all.

WHEN THE EIGHTEENTH LEFT NORWICH (Written Specially for The Bulletin.) During the battle of Gettysburg, -five years ago, in July, 1863, the urteenth Regiment which numbered many Norwich volunteers, merited the warmest praise for bravery. This was one of the most trying hattles in which it had been engaged, yet one in which it distinguished itself by a number of effective charges, capturing five regimental flags and over forty prisoners, while sustainimg a loss in the aggresate of sixty-six. In the Virgimian campaign, under Gen. U. S.

Buckingham had for under President Lincoln's tion of July 1st, Norwich had no official representation, therefore no special local interest. At a patriotic mass meeting of the county, held on Franklin Square, July 24th, 1862, nothing had contributed mare to arouse enthusiasm and an ambition throughout the town to maintain its eminence for devotion te the national cause than the announce- ment that orders had been issued for a New London County regiment, to rendezvous at the Fair Grounds near Norwich. This was the first regiment that was mustered into service from Norwich, and for this reason the Bighteenth Regiment was regarded by the citizens as peculiarly their own.
