Have you ever tasted beans cooked by the shantymen's method? The beand . |are brought to the boiling point in an iron or earthernware pot, which is then buried in the sand, and when taken out! several hours afterwards the beans will be found cooked to a degree of perfac- tion ‘unattainable by any. other process, except the fireless cooker, which after all | is the means by. which use of “confinea heat” the involved in the hole in the sand method of cooking, is made possible in the home—another illustra- tion of the old adage that “there Is nothing new under the sun.” The only difference is the modern application of the idea.

Many favored July 14. when Club No. 4 hopes to welsome to Wildwood Park many of the writers of the Social Corner. You know the old saying, “The more, the merrier.” so come and make us twice glad. There is a legend of Lake Alexander which I have in poetry by the late Mrs. C. H N. Thomas of Danielson, and I send it for the Social Corner poem, thinking it may be of interest at this time. Dear Social Corner Sisters: Club Ne. 5 will hold a picnic in Mr. Plicher's woods near the pond Wednesday, July 1i. All are invited whether members _or not. Please bring food, also plate, cup, knife, fork and spoon as no house is near and you cannot borrow. If Wednesday is stormy the plenic will be postpensd. Let us hope for & pleasant day.

PR g essity of spending time in just being. v g izl We rush from ene activity to another, - - & maltiply our interests, fill our moments er engagement books, as the case may be. Bometimes overwrought nerves bring us up sharply and pain or futility of thought makes us pause for a time. Sometimes we go on and on, tortured nerves exact- ing irritability and foreboding.

But wherever one wife er mother or business weman overStrain: her strength and lity fof saneness of life those near her must suffer aiso. Not alone can she carry the penalty of faise standards of duty or mistaken values of life. Life is such a series of circles. Our own little orbit touches so many mere. Our own little clrcle, disiorted In the living, causes many others to lose the symmetry that might have been theirs. We need to pause occasionally and re- membBer that the very greatest aecom- plishment for any mortal is Hving life sensibly and well. We are always given interest the letters from week to Week and o many times. I so agree with some of the writers. I think I will send a letter right away but time slips by and I do not. Last week the letter lrmp New Comer to Norwich about not saving letters was fine. Not long 2go it was niy duty to look over a lot of let- ters belonging to a dear friend who had suddenly died and I was glad indeed it fell to me to do it as there were many things in those letters she would not have wished others to see and still she saved them. The letter signed Blue-Bell on spend- ing the vacation had mueh good advice in it It was written to ypung girls go- ing on vacations but I wish many who have passed the girl age conld read it and profit by it. The busy farmer's wife likes to entertain and have company as well as anyone and if her guests would only realize how much it would help her if they would only keep their belongings together _and not string them ail over the house. She could enjoy their visit 80 much more. Also if the guests have -children see to it they do not allow them to do things the hostess does. not allow ‘her “own children to do.

As I was thinking it over, it occurred to my mind, “Why wouldn't a piece of white crayen do 25 well?” I had several pleces of the ordinary white school crayon that were left from what my beys had used, on a home blackboard. As a small piece of crayon was in my workbasket I seized upon that, to “ehalk over” my white ehoes. 1 found the trial worth repeating, the crayon being hard, very little dust arises, and the application on the can- vas keeps well.

Full justice Was done to all the tempting viands. The af- ternoon was spent in a merry round of chatter and laughter While some stralled into the masic room to listen to the sweet strains from piane or iVetrola, and some of the younger ones amused themselves with croguet or otherwise.
