WAYS TO WORK UP CORN Dear Sisters: As you all know sweet torn s a vegetable that loses its sweet- 1088 very soon after gathering and us- rally needs to be cooked with a little mgar. When choosing corn pick out ather small ears. But when cooking corn on the cob it ® useless to add eugar to the water lor the sweetnesq cannot penetrate the witer covering of the kernel. Corn on he cob should not be cooked more than wenty minntes, the water should be rofling when the corn is put in the wa- or, toughens the kernels. I am ending some ways of using corn I hink you will like. Corn “Oysters”—Grate the pulp ¥om ears of cooked sweet corn and to mch cup of ¥ allow one beaten egg, me tabiespoon sweet milk, one table- poom flour, one teaspoon melted butter md ome-half teaspoon salt. Mix these pgredients together and drop this bat- er by tablespoons on a hot, greased xiddle, turning each little cake so that t will brown on both sides. (A little wlp from uncooked corn adds to the laver of thess cakes.) Serve hot. Beaxilian BSuecotash—Combine equal itities of eooksd corn cut from cob :mmm seasoning and grass ameng, | membership | addition | of throwing | with salt, pepper and butter to suit taste and a'ping one slice of fried ba. con, finely minced, for every half cup of the succotash.. (The bacon flavor makes jt delicious.) Steam this until hot in the top of a double boiler, over rap. | idly boiling water, and serve at once. Corn Baked in Squash—Six ears corn, one tablespoon butter, one tablespoon cream, one egg, One teaspoon sugar, one-half teaspoon salt, one-half tea- spoon pepper, one summer squash. Cut tips from kernels of corn and scrape out milk and pulp. Beat egg till very light and edd corn, butter (melted), salt, sugar and pepper. Parboil a sum- mer squash and scoop out the center. Fill with the corn mixture and bake twenty minutes in a rather quick oven. Corn Pudding—Slx ears corn, two cups milk, two eggs, ome teaspoon su- gar, one teaspoon salt, one tablespoon melted butter. Beat eggs and milk to- gether. Add other ingredients and pour into @ butteréd baking dish. Bake in a moderate oven for thirty minutes. Serve from the baking dish. NORMA. MIXED MUSTARD PICKLE. there seems to be plenty of smace on our Cormer page, I am going to take a chance of another letter this month and be one to answer Martha's request for mixed mustard pickle. I have ' just made half of the recipe I am sending in and had about four quarts. Mixed Mustard Pickles: One peck of preen tomatoes, four quarts of onions, two caulifiowers, six green penpers, six red peppers, two bunches of coiery. Cut all in small pieces, put in a small cup Pf salt, cover with water and boil ten | or fifteen minutes, then drain in col- wnder. Take one cup of floar, tiree ps of sugar, one pound of mustard, one tablespoon of curry powder, ono ta- blespoon of tumeric powder, wet up with one quart of vinegar and stir into two quarts of boiling vinegar. When his has thickened stir in the vegeta- and bottle while hot. If I happen have any tender string beans or small cucumbers I put them in. This time T had some ripe cucumbers so I veeled them, took out the soft puly, cut in pieces and put those in ani think it dded to the flavor. TWICE TWENTY. TOMATOES.

Dear Social Corner Friends: Another summer has passed away and we won- der how many are so tired out that it seems as if they mever would feel rest- ed again. Housekeeping is the most sheltered oc- cupation and ought to be the easfest work, but sometimes it seems the hardest of any, because it is impossible to do the work as you plan and because it is ex- asperating to spend so much time on such trivial things and feeling all the time One of our friends auietly left us one morning—overwork and too much excite. ment and pleasure proved too much for the weak heart. 1t impressed us as perhaps nothing else could how important it is for each one to have a system for their work, doing | Mo more than they are able to do, and not allowing the regular routine that that have planned, to be interfered with in the home any more than it would be in any outside business. Ang each one shouldstake some share in the housework, too. “Kitchen police” should be as expected a requirement for each one in the home as in the ser- vice. It you visit the stores early in the morning you will find each one busy doing his share to help put everything in order for the day. So in the same way just a few mimutes’ help from each one in the home would take the strain is to blame if everything is not done just right. ‘Where there is no helper the work of the summer, with the heat, and the extra things we all want to do, the summer visitors, the canning of and vegetables for the winter supply of food, make greater demands on the strength than one can meet. Another friend, with a large home in the country whege her friends loved to spend the summer, too, after the ex- perience of several hard summers, deeld- ed on a better plan for the visitors. Now she offers her friends free hospitality to her home as far as a good room, bed, and use of the kitchen, living room, porch and lawn, but with the understanding that in no way is she to be called on. And she finds that her friends enjoy the change from city housekeeping to that of the farm and have just as enjoyable a summer as when she spent on them most of her time and strength and a share of the income which was nevar anv-tno i i i doing too many unneccessary things and | i | { Social Corner Editor and Readers: As! One peck of | one | d | fine | that you are not accomplishing anything. | from the housekeeper of feeling that she | usual i fruits | large for the needs of her own family. The young housekeeper ustally begins preparing too many dishes which take too much time, but the busy mother should learn to quickly and easily pre- pare all the real necessary foods, serv- ing the fruits and green -vegetables as much as possible and not spendig too much time on saucesand dressings, etc. This month brines the children back to school again and that means that we have to put in a lot of time explaining and getting them interested in their | school work. { We seem to have had wonderfully ca- | pable, tamous and successul men, years ! ago, who never went to school much. Many of the most successful were poor { bovs who began regular work in the mills and shops, when not more than eight or nine years of age. I think one secret of their success was that they learned at first to concen- trate their minds on something they un- | derstood and were interested in. I think the greatest mistake in our schools is studying to pass examina- tions. Many children feel that they can- not take the time to try and understand for fear that they will not have time to memorize enough to pass. A child should be graded by age, not by how much he has memorized, and his high rating should be decided by his ability to understand new material—new problems. learning something more about people, how they first lived and how they travel- ed from ome part of the country to the other. _Thnt made the laws so that cach one should know how to do an: not to make trouble for others, how the | people were divided up into little groups | and’ cach group had a language of its own and how the people learned to make all kinds of machinery and build steam- boats and railroads and big cities. And he should feel that school is the place where each day the children learn something more about the people, where and how they live and what they are do- ing and the best way to keep them well. The most important thing for the child is for him to be interested in what he has each day in school. JEREMY. A HINT IN MAKING ING. Dear Corner Editor and Sisters: May I become a member? I have attended as a visitor two of your meetings and enjoyed them greatly. The day at Aunty No. 1's was all that one could ask for— | nerfect weather, and an abundance of good thin to eat A trip a short dis- | tance up the road to see the beautiful dahlias was taken by quite a number and all felt repaid for going.

Dear Corner Friends: I am sending in my recipe for sweet pickled pears, if not too late, which we think are ve zo0d. Take 7 pounds of pears, 3 pounds of sugar, 1 pint of vinegar. Take stems from pears and cut out blossom ends, | and cover with cold water, and letj | hoil until you can stick a fork through | them, then take out pears, add sugar | and vinegar to the water you cooked pears in, also your spice tied in a! muslin bag, 2 heaping tablespoons of | cinnamon and cloves, a coffee cup of | rai then put your pears back again and boil until they begin to pucker, then put into stone jar.

Dear Social Corner Sisters: Didn't we have a glorious time up to the an- nual picnic given by Aunty :No. 1, Sept. 14th? It was just the place for a picnic and so near the car this year, as she has bought a house on Vergason avenue, and Aunty and Un- | cle were so good with their auto, car- rying the older ones back and forth. I left my house about ten thirty and met the car at the M. K. church and| there T met several of the sisters. We, journeyed up the hill, Cady and I| {having a very interesting chat. We arrived_at eleven, in time to help| serve the dinner with Old Fashioned Mother, Amber, Snow Flake, No. Apple Blossom, Adella, Chauffeur, ) 2 E. B. and several others. There were twelve in all to serve the dinner in| courses. With Aunty’s help, we served din- ner to one hundred and twenty-tive. After the doxology was sung, we served beans, several kinds of salad— and Aunty never fails with her vege- table salad—cakes, pies, of all kinds,; | cod meats, cheese, pickles, peaches, grapes, bananas and delicious hot cof- | fee. 1 The lawn was a very - attractive looking spot, with its easy chairs, benches, tables, with the different sis- ters busy with their fancy work. Aft- er dinner many stunts were done ard | many games were played. Melba, Jim Crowe, New York Girl, won prizes. Oleander had several more planned, but as the sisters were so taken up with Aunty’s flowers, and journeyed up to one of the neighbors to see the lovely dahlias, they were not- plaved. early every sister present received a blossom from the - kind neighbor, There was a reading by Deliah D-al. | Best wishes to all. OLEANDER. ON BURIAL HILL AT PLYMOUTH. Dear Sisters of the Social Corner: In my_last letter I only answered one ques- tion of Sister 1492, therefore I.appeal to your indulgence, and continue on! the same subject of historic Plymouth. As I stood on the brow of Burial Hill, 1 looked first over the housetops of the town, and far across the bay to Clark’s Island, where, We are told, the explor- ing Pilgrims safely landed their shal- lop on Saturday night Dec. 19, 1620, and the next day rested and spent their ifirst Sabbath on this shore. One of the |most conspicuous monuments and quite central in its location is that to Gov- lernor William Bradford, the second governor, and/nearby, numerous stones marking the graves of his descendants. Many of the very oldest stones are {in this vicinity, mostly of small di- jmensions and a variety of designs from the sculptor's chisel ,above the memor- !ial inscription. I saw two reminders of the skull and cross bones, hideous {faces, some With a Wing on each ear. The oldest orlginal stone is that to the memory of Edward Gray, 1681. A very |small stone having been reset within a larger granite, to preserve its original- | ity. As I walked to the farther end of | the cemetery I observed a peaked shape stone of dark slate. This was to the memory of Fannie Crombie who depart_ ed this life June 25, AD 1804, in the 8th year of her age. Near to the base of the stone where the grass almost hid the words, I read this sentiment: As young as beautiful! and soft as young And gay as soft! and innecent as gay. As T wandered the path on the siop- ing hillside toward the morth section I saw the low circular top stones to the memory of Joseph Plasket and his wife Tabitha. The husband was the first to sever the home ties, which occurred in He should feel that each day he is just } ity. ,word from the hostess, each guest step- v .ped to the table and uncovered the food |eay the letters on the Corner page of says, the widow wrote his epitaph as foilows: All you that doth behold my stone | Consider how soon I was gone. I Death does not always warning give, Therefore be careful how you live. Repent in time, no time delay, I in my prime was called away. Mrs, Plasket, in her widowhood taught a private school for small chil- dren, and was the first woman school- teacher in America. She survived her companion by thirteen years and when | she, too, departed this life, the epitaph which she had prepared, was duly in- scribed on the memorial as she desired: | Adieu, vain world, Tve seen enough of | thee ; And I am careless what thou say'st of me; Thy emiles I wish not, nor thy frowns I fear; I am now at rest, my head lies quiet here. One of the most mnoteworthy tomb- stones is that erected to the memory ! of John Howland, a Pilgrim, and whose house is still standing in Plymouth,.not far from the town brook. The insarip- ! tion explains itself, as follows: Here ended the pilgrimage of John Howland, who died Feb. 23, 1672, aged above 80 years. He married Elizabeth, daughter of John Tilley, who came with him in the Mayflower Dec. 1620, From | them are descended a numerous poster- Marble tablets mark the location of the Old Fort and Watch Tower, which was used by the Pilgrims in their ear- | liest dass at Tiymouth.

SERVING THE VICTUALS COVERED | " Dear Social Corner Sisters: When at- tending_a picnic or reading the report of one 1 am often reminded of thel story of an old lady who was one day visited by her pastor. During their con- versation he asked her which of her many blessings during her long life she had _enjoved the most. The dear old lady thought a moment and her eyes brightened as sha looked at her pas- tor and replied, “My victuals.” No doubt the amswer was an unex- ected one but is there not much of truth in it? Now I want to tell you of what was to me a new and very at_ tractive way of serving the “victuals” | at a picnic I attended where about | twenty ladies were present. Each one ! When invited was told to bring some-! th'ng to, eat and to have it covered When we arrived at the home of our hostess the things we carried Were taken and put out of sight until near the close of the afternoon when every- thing was brought out and placed on a long table on the lawn where we were 1 seated I wish you could have seen that ta- ble. There were pretty covered dishes, boxes and baskets trimmed with crepe paper, an old fashioned sugar bowl | filled with little cookies, and plates and platters covered with napkins and doil- les. Bven the drink was covered. At a| he brought, then returned to her seat where she was given a plate, cup, fork and napkin. Needless to say, the re- mainder of the afternoon was spent en- joying the ‘“victuals” the uncovered diches revealed. I must not close without a word in | regard to Aunty 1's pienic which Mr. -Primrose and myself very unex- pectedly attended. It was a long time since T had met with any of the other clubs and I enjoyed every moment rr‘-l newing old acquaintances and making new ones. My only regret was that we had to ea and run. It was my first visit to Norwich Town and Bean Hill but I hope not my last. After we reach- ed home I asked Mr. Primrose what he thought of the Social Corner folks and | his reply was, “They had a dinner fit| for a king.'’ | Long live the Sogial Corner and Un- | clo and Aunty No.'1. PRIMROSE. A PERFECT DAY. Dear Editor and Social ters: T must write and tell you about the picnic at Aunty No. 1's was a beautiful day and such place for a picnic and so handy to get to. eryone seemed to enjoy it. There were plenty of zood eats and everyone seemed to have their appetites with them. Everyone was made welcome and as each and everyone returned to their respective homes. thanking Aunty | No. 1 for the cordial way she entertain- ed us, it was the end of a perfect day I got quite a few names in my book, but not as.many as T wanted. Lucy Acorn: I was pleased to meet | you, also to know where vou live. Shall certainly give vou a call some time when T am down that way.

Will let you hear | from me later. Best wishes to all. RED CLOVER. THE BEAUTIES OF BEACH POND, Readers of the Social Chrner: A glimpse of Beach Pond in a recent Cor- ner letter, might have aroused interest for a “longer look.” To those who have been there for the day, or campinz, or just passing by, it is a reminder of an ideal place, secluded and remote from even an echo of the busy Industrial life surrounding it. Passing through the center of Volun- town, the road turns to the right of Rob- bins cemetery, then left, and further on a forked road is the division which sep- arates the roads to elther side of the pond. The left leading down a steep hill, through pictorial woody scenes, to the more private side of the pond. The right takes us on through a stretch of Wwoods to where we first zet a view of the pond from a hill overlooking the wa- ter. Going down this hill we cross the pond by a built roadwayv, which cuts one end of the water off towards our right, | and as we cross a bridge we are in Exeter, R. I, and the road leads us a short distance on the beach which is eall- ed Sandy Beach, formerly known as the Willows, because of the willow trees that hung close to the shore, and of which there is now only one old veter- an which tries to retaln its height at the water's edge that the family name might not be extinct.- This Is a fine san- dy shore, popular with bathers and is basked by a cleared section for camn ers and entirely free for their use. Be-} ing closed in by wooded hills that overlook the clear expanse of beautiful water this is an ideal picnic spot. When the water is olw, one may follow the beach around to the Providence cot- tages set snug and comfortable on a level stretch of grassy lawns. Passing these cottages a road leads us up a hill to a spring that should go down in history for the delicious sparkling water. A concrete well built around it makes it attractlve and of easy access. The entire pond which is about four miles long and a mile wide, stretches off in the distance showing a truly emerald isle in the center, a most beautiful spot. Looking down the pond from the Prov- jdence cottages one sees on the right the four Briggs cottages, cosy amnd red 1794, at the age of 48 years. - Tradition | against the green irees with a ‘white ATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 24, Y921 parel Shop show you the ments of all kinds which choosing. “The” one is End of the Week Specials The Men’s Shop Offers Four Splendid Values Saturday HEAVY RIBBED UNION SUITS They are good suits, too.

AN OPPORTUNITY NOT TO BE OVERLOOKED B ————————————— streak of beach before them. Further on the same side is Arthur's Poir§ where the Boy Scouts camped. On the left several cottages have been built; Gilbert's which is up to the min- ute and attractlve, and Paucamac Lake cottage built by a group of Jewett City boys. This cottage has been given the correct Indian name for Beach Pond— Paucamac—and with the first view of the water of its expance and woody beau- ty, one can more fittingly realize it is a lake, and not a common pond. It should be called Lake Paucamac, and the sand shore known as Paucamac Beach. The Boy Scouts called Jreir camp Tippecan, for a smaller body of water nearby. The Indian names are romantic, and should be remembered if not used in these localities. The early tribes must have been envious of their lakes, theirs alone to enjoy with their birch canoes. Arrow heads are very often found on the shores of the lake. It has been a popular place in the summers for autoists near.and far and tents have spotted the water's edge on all sides, and boats have rested on the water, walting for the bass, pickerel and bullheads that are sure to appear—If you wait long enough. Late in the summer and fall, fishing parties are pouplar and later, fishing through the ice is indulged in. In the woods are shots and their repeated echoes, through the fall and tumn, and with the first fall of brings the fox humters and trap ters.

It will swallow your cares, and in return, exhilarate you for the contin- uance of your daily routine SUNBONNET SUE. ANOTHER CORNER MEMBER.

Dear Social Corner Sisters: 1 was pleased to see a letter from Huldy a few weeks ago. Hope she will drift down this way and meet us at the Buskingham Memorial.
