Among the broad leaved evergreens we may choose from the small, rhedoden- dron varieties, mountain laurel, pieris, manhonia, evonymus and others. In front of these may be planted the smaller ever- green, such as wintergreeh, periwinkle and Japanese spurge. Vines which hold their leaves, such as English ivvy or climbing evonymus ean be so pianted to hang gracefully over the sides of the window Box..

Dear Corner Members: I remember that there are several Corner sisters who are great squash pie makers, but squash can be used in many ways The simplest ‘way and perhaps the most sailsfactory is to bake squash If & squash is a bit watery baking is the only thing to do. If very dry, crack the shell, eut in pieces comvemient to handle, remova shell and seeds and cut in dices. Put in stew pan, pour over boiling water to eover and boil until tender. Drain and mash and season with sait and pepper and butter. To bake squash cut in balves. Remove seeds and bake about an hour in a med- erate oven. Remove {rom the shell. mash aud season with salt snd pepper and butter. Squash Pie: One cap cooked and sift- ed squash, ome-half cup suger, ome and one-quarter cups milk, ome tablespoon salt, one-quarter teasopon ginger, one tea- spoon lemon juice. Mix sugar. salt. zin- ger and lemon jmice with squash. Add melted butter and egg slightly beaten. Stir in milk with pastry and bake in a slow oven after the first five minutes. The oven shouid be hot when the pie is put in in order to bake the crust. Scalloped Squash: Two cups squash, one cap cracker erumbs, two table- spoos bufter. salt and pepper, one egg (optional), milk. Thiz is good if the squash is inclined to watery. Boil or bake the sguash and rub through a sieve. Mix with crumbs, but- ter, sait and pepper and beat weil If necessary add milk to make moist. Add egg and beat till light.

Ev md’iy:‘whohu a ing CLUB NO. 1| OPENS SEASO. INGS Editor and Corner S ing for some time I will now tlell you aii about our Club No. I's gathering at Franklin hall. Now it is getting to0 late t0 have out-of-doors picnics. At first we thought the weather man was not go- ing to favor us with a pleasant day, ar some of us got caught in the morning rain, but it clearad off in time so there was plenty of sunshine and we had 2 fine day after all. When we got up in the hall we found plenty of weicome and e there. We had twelve sisters for hostesses, namely. Amy, Dewdzop, Butter Cup No. 2, Alfretta, Bettie, Hope, Cobweb, Nutm: Wiltwyck, Bdna Marie, Rose Lee, Am and Aunt Alicia. They all wore white with a vellow dahlia in their hair, that being our corner color. They also wore bows of colors, red, white and green, in memory of Columbus it be- on that day. The tabies were laden h good gs to eat which the hostes- L had prepared for us. Decorations were vellow dahlias which came from some of the hostesses’ gardens There were 65 present. We were glad to welcome the sisters from Clubs No, 2, 3 and 4. also Spry Bird. She flew down from her nest way up in Springfield. It seems that not ail birds are afradd of the ble drops of rain such as we had on that morning. I wish to say we wel- come all of the Sisters who belong to the other Social Cormer clubs and hope to see many of them through the winter at our gatherings. All come and have a good time with us, o bring vour huob- bys with you. There was a number of the sisters’ hubbys with us at the zath- ering Oct. 12 and I don’t know how many but there was a reserved table for them so dom’t hesitate about your hub- take them along w you or a t invite them in to dinner at the noon hour as they like ourseives enjoy 2 change in dinners. After dinner, Amy spoke to us all, regarding the death of one sister, Buckeye, which we have lost in our Club No. 1, snice we last met at the hall. How we shall miss her In the coming gatherings. Then there questions asked on Columbus’ landing and we were pleased 10 have 1432 with us on this day. As she and Mary Augusta came together. The rest of the time was taken In comparing fancy work and vis- iting. Then came the parting and the ending of another pleasant time spent te- gether. Now thanking the hostesses for their kindnesses and hoping to meet all mest month, I bid you all best wishes. cCHA& atC ¥ eam GROCERIES MEAL 10 lbs. WHITE. ...... 29¢’ 10 bs.
