ANOTHER BEEF SUET PUDDING RECIPE, To the Editor and Cornerites: I am not a_member of the Social Corner but have been an interested reader for some time. 1 saw the request of E. M. R. C. P. for recipe for beef suet pudding, so 1 am enclosing the same, which I think she will find véry good. I always make it for Thanksgiving. Beef Suet Pudding: One eup suet chop- ped fine, one cup raisins chopped fine. one cup sugar, one cup molasses, one cup sour milk, two eggs, one large teaspoon soda, ome teaspoon each of cinnamon, cloves, nutmeg and allspice, one-half teaspoon salt, flour enough to make the dough stiff as fruit' cake. Steam three hours. Mjx the sugar, molasses, sour milk, eggs, sait and spice, then add the flour and soda sifted together, and last the suet and raisins. If this doepn’t find the waste basket I shall be tempted to write again, as I would like to add my bit about Beach pond. INTERESTED READER, HOW TO PRESERVE CITRON FOR CAKE. Dear Social Cofner Sistérs: As E. M. R. C. P. asked for the recipe for shet pudding, T thought I would send in mine, which is very nies, and an old recipe, so It might be what she wants; ais§ Diana wished for a way to preserve eitron, To Preserve Citron for Cake: Peel citron, cut into strips and remove seeds. Weigh the fruit and allow 2-pound of sugar to every pound of fruit. Make a syrup, allowing a cup of water to every pound of sugar. Cook the citron in this until tender. Remove and ,spread on dishes. Boil the syrup until quite thick, Stir in a little lemon juice, add ginger root if preferred. Lay the strips of citron back in the boiling syrup and stir until candied and coated with sugar. Lay on_a plitter {0 cool and dry. Suet Pudding: Two and one-half cups of*flour, one cup of chopped suet, one cup raisins, oné cup milk or water, one cup molass spoon cinnamon, a little nutmeg. Steam three bours if in a loaf. I use an eEg poacher and the custard cups make nice individual eakes. Then boil one hour or steam. Sauce for Pudding: Melt one table spoon butter in a saucepan, add one ta- blespoen flour, When smooth, add grad- ually one cap 6f hot milk or ‘water, stir- ring all the time. Pour this over a well beaten egg and one cup of sugar, flavor to suit taste. This is fine. Theoda: Arrived home safe. That hubby of yours is some driver. The visit did me good, performed a cure. Cady: 1 had to laugh when I read your last letter.

Sometimes I think I will #9 erazy. Well; let us live in hope for better times. ADNTY No. 1. HALLOWE'EN BLACK CATS.

I like to read about the trips the sisters and brothers have taken. Even if T do havé to stay home, I'm not deprived of sesing the - lovely autuma colors, as wé live on high ground. This has been the glittering month of the year. I am interested in “character reading” and cut out all those printed in The Bulle- tin. Crow's Feet had a nice letter about persons born under the sign of Libra. As that is mine, I read it over more than once. Some is true, but when it comes to “borrowing” I'm not in it, rather go without than borrow. Selinda, Calla Lily, Jemnie and Mrs. M.: Thank you for birthday cards. Baleam Fir: If you put on your think- ing cap you will find that I wrote you a letter many meons ago, Wondered why Yol never answered. E. M. R. C. P.: Am sending In two £00d recipes for suet pudding. The one without eggs is the one I make and I use sour milk always. Hoping you will have 5008 luck. Make the batter as thick as ¥ou can stir with a spoon. Suet Pudding: One cup each of chop- ped suet, stoned raisins, molasses and milk (sour if you have it), one teaspoon each of soda, cinnamon, clove and nut- mes, sbme salt, flour to maké thicker than cake. Put into a greased pail and stoam three hours. Serve With liquid sance. Suet Pudding No. 2: One cup each of chopped suet, raisins, molasses and milk, one egg, three and one-half cups of flour, A little salt, one teaspoon each of soda, cinnamon, clove and nutmeg. Boil thres hours in a pudding mould set into a ket- tle of water. If sour milk is Vsed in place of sweet, the pudding will be much lighter. Kitty Lou: Please send your recipe for falling halr. T would be very grateful or it. Best wishes to all, JOAN. SOME HALLOWE'EN COSTUMES. Dear Editor and Sisters of The Soeial Corner: I haven't written for auite a long time, so thought it time I took my pén in' hand and wréte. As Hallowe'en is s0 very near I will give a few hints upon Hallowe'en costumes. Hallowg'en is the name given t6 the night of October 31, as the eve of the virgil of All Saints' or All Hallows' day, November 1. In anclent days the peo- ! believed that on the eve of this festival 8amon, the Lord of Death, called together the wicked souls ¢f those who had died the past vear and had been condemned to occupy the bodies of ani- mals. From this belief arose probahly the Popular supsbstition that on Hallowe'en spirits of the dead wander abroad, te- gether with witehes, devlls and misehief- making elves; also, that children on the night can perceive and hold converse with supernatural beings. In parts .of England and Scotland Hallowe'en s known as Nutérack Night and Snapple Night, The Queen-of Hearts is a very pretty costume made of crepe paver, the dress to be made of white crepe paper, trim- med with red hearts, and a large heart for a cap. Nizht, would miake a fine costume for a tall, dark girl. The dress should be a soft_and flowing one wiade of black net or cheesecloth dotted over with stars and a_créscent moon eut from silver paper. The‘hair is worn Joose and flowing, with a wreath of the stars éncircling the head. A Chinaman wears loose trousers, blue overalls will do, & loose shirt of figured cretohne, a pigtail made of braided black rrgs obtained from old stockings and fastened to a sknll cap, also made of stockings, and a Chinese mask. A sheet or two, a pillow casé and a mask representing a skull are sufficient to dress a ghost of either sex. The part should be taken by tall, slender people. Dawn, makes a pretty costume for a fair haired rl. A loose gown of thin, gray stuff is worn over a slip of tbse celored sateen: The hair is worn loose and flowing, and is topped by a crown decorated With stars made of gold paper. A gay kimona, a sash and a few Jap- anese hair ornaments in the form of tiny fans or glass balls, form a Japanese cos- tume for a dark haired girl who can wear her 'hair in pompadour style. A tramp costume consists of old clothes that do not fit, and a piece of black courtplaster applied to several teeth, to give the effect of missing teeth. A very good costume for a man is to dress as a skeleton, white against a dark suit, he would have all the party and the room to Rimself. RED WING. CLUB NO. 1 MEETS NOV. 8. Dear Soclal Corner: As the time fe fast approaching for afisther meeting of the sisters I wish to give notick that we will meet at the hall as usual at this season of the vear in Willlmantie, Wed- nesday, November 9th.

Dear Bdltor and Sisters: Are you in- terested in the weather predictions for the coming winter? Most of ue are. T HI foenes the virious prophets and Sse how they agree, or disagree. An editorial note In The Bulletin re- cently, commented on the thundershowers ‘we have had lately, saying if they meant anything we were likely to have colder ‘weather. Now I am no weather prophet, please don’t think I'm pretending to be, but here is a weather sign which an old Bay State farmer used to claim to be. fair- ly aceurate: Wherever a thundershower oceurs after the twentleth of September, you may expeet an open winter. It there is no thundershower then look for a hard winter. According to the number of thunder- showers we've had sinee Sept. 20, we should have a falNy mild winter. In predicting weather for the summer this sathe man used to say that a thunder. &hower shortly before March 20 meant a summer rathef cooler than the average. The head of Theodo's house savs he is predieting a mild winter from the fact that the muskrats have not et built their winter houses. We hopé that WIIl the sister who wanted to know’ how to make sust puddifz, tey ihin I+ / A he_is right. l jhave stopped. Thence up Bradford hill |eame .of the stome. that Elder Slocnm was my mother'’s recipe and mueh liked by all the family. 3 Suet Pudding: One cup beet sust, ciop- ped fine, one cup raisins, one cup swest milk, one cup molasses, one teaspoon cach, salt, cloves, einnamon and allspice, two teaspoons soda, threé and oneé-half cups flour. Steam three hours. This was alwavs served with a sauce made of sugar, flour and hot water, sea- soned with salt, nutmeg and a teaspoon of bolled sweet clder. BETSY BOBBET.

Dearie: The butternut tree is chepped down, so you have lost vour chance -to sit under it, but you ean sit on the logs, vou and Necia, if you come down soon. Ma of Greene Gables: 1 am glad vou got home and made the mies. I know they were lovely. I think you hit me on mending. I rather sit down and crochet a nice little Wheel than to darn old stockings. Bob White: The barn is all done with nice mement floor. Old Yeller walked on it and left his footprint. He is the rascle that caught the humming bird. Good_wishes to you all. LUCY ACORY. SOME OF VOLUNTOWN 2 TIONS. Dear Hditor and Sisters: E. M. R. P. C. writes truly when she writés of the beauties of the. drive across Ekonk hill, and through the “wilderness” to Beach Pond from the Junction Houee, Plain- field. After erossing the railroad you £0 past the beautiful statue recently un- veiled to commemorate the bravery of the men who went to the World war from St. John's parish. From the end of Railroad avenue you are on the Hartford and Providence pike until you zet to the four cormers west” of Sterk ing Hill geing past Lafayette Inn where Washingtoh and Lafayette are said to ATTRAC- Where there ‘is a*fine view of Plainfield village and the surrounding country. From the top of Bradford hill to| Ekonk brook near the home of Walter Davis there is a grand descent. From there it is a gradual ascent until the chest .of the hill is reached just morth of the home of Bd. Stewart Galup. This is 660 feet above sea level and is the highest part of the ridge. Here there is an unbroken view into the sur- rounding towns and villages also over to Rhode Island. Just at present the eye is entranced by the beauyty of the follage with its bright colors. The view over Pharisce Rock is especlally fine. Going south the highest moint of langd, 640 feet above sea level, in New London county is on Bear hil', just southwest of Ekonk Grange hall, in -the town of Voluntown. B M. R. P..C. speaks of two cemeter- fes that can be sesn. The most north- ern and eastern ome is known as the Gallup cemetery and near the south- castern corner in 1723 was built, after much controverey, the first Preshyterian church in_eéastern Connecticnt. Here lies the Gallups, Kasson, Wylies, Fen- ners and Stovals, all names commen in the earlier history of the town of Vo'~ untown, for Sterling was then ineluded in the town of Voluntown. Near here was built the first schoolhouse in town. The other cemetery on the road east of the four corners morth of the church is known as the “New Yard” and is of recent_origin. E. M. R, P. C. is mistaken ds to ths story house near the schoolhousa where the road turns to the right to go to Voluntown. Tt was built about twen- years azo by Silas L. Barber, now in_Plainfield, and was never a tavern. It was built on the site of the old Wy'le house and no-stage coach | ever ran past it although a star route mail was carried past it for many years from Sterlng Center to Voluntown, and the most office, Campbells Mills was kept | in the old as well as the new house, Now for our plunge iInto the “wilder- ness” From here we go easterly past the road ‘eading to Campbells Mills whero Dixon and Potter wove “Nigger Cloth” before the Civil war and made filling for army blankets during that war. Past the ruins of the old water power sawmill where R. H. Dixon put in operation the first circular saw that was operated by water power in this section of Connecticut. Over Great Meadow brook up the hill and past the Kennedy cemetery where the Gordons, Campbells, Wylies, Alexanders and Kennedys, a'l old names in-our town history and as families extinet, lie Buriéd, to the four corners where the road crosses the She- tucket turnpike. Thence south past the farm owned by the heirs of Charles Bit- 200d and the birthplace of Elmer Bit- Eood “the strongest man on earth,” so his signs read the last time I was past the east side of the road. (The elm is sida_of the il fron works? ldea of the route. Drive over it and &ee rated them.
