Ba 0 at To By Mair M. Morgan : | or a grand success more than "grapefruit ERS y SIRIUS * er ARE YOU A (GOOD COMBINER? Phe secret of many a person who is dubbed by all her friends as un excellent cook is her sense of food combinations... Anyone who com- biues unusual disheg after carefully considering the "tasting effect," will merit the name of good cook. For instance, many people always serve such foods as canned soups and vegetables just as they are, never in combinations. But try sometime us- ing your imagination and add a can of soup as a basting fluid for your roast meat. Or combine a meat soup with a can of tomato soup and watch your guests' appreciation, If you are scalloping a fish dish 'you will find that the addition of a small can of pea soup for the liquor, will make people wonder and praise, One-dish dinners are excellent for studying out food combinations, With a cabbage salad a combination of diced bananas and peanuts make a good one-dish meal. Or an escallop of cabbage and cheese will satisfy a luncheon appetite. You may wonder at the différent taste of your hostess' party cake. When you ask, you find . the cake was made by the same recipe you use but was flavored with a combi- nation" of cake flavorings instead of the usual way of adding just on® flavor, Spice combinations will pro- duce such variations in cakes that the family will think mother has come across another new recipe. Gravy combinations will make dinner guests marvel, for nothing in the culinary art is either a failure the gravies one is served. Try adding onion salt to one gravy, a taste of nutmeg to: another, some of the gravy seasonings to a roast meat gravy and remember to use geéncrous shakings of celery seed in 'a meat gravy, being sure to strain the seeds out before serving. Tish combinations can be made by using two kinds of fish in your baking dish, or a can of peas baker with your creamed salmon. Even fresh boiled pork that comes out so white and appetizing can be addeil to a fish salad to give an unusually pleasing taste to the dish. Many old-fashioned cooks were horrified at the late combination in a fruit salad where orange slices and slices were generously sprinkled with onion juice or even topped with wafer-thin onion slices but today that salad is a popular one. BOLOGNA IN DISGUISE Place large slices of bologna 'sausage or minced ham (1-2 inch thick and skin unbroken) in a skillet with a little butter. Let them cook slowly and they will form cups. Turn them over and browr on the bottom gide. Filled with scrambléd eggs, spaghatti, or anv filling: desired, they make an attractive luncheon dish. Serve on a platter garnished with buttered toast and individual mounds of vegetable. CU LEISURE ROOM Our newly acquired leisure brings the need of a room'in which to spend that leisure, More than ever before the family is feeling the need of a place in which to work at hobbies, to play, or to do nothing at all. Such a room is within the reach of almost any family which will spend a reasonable amount of time and enthusiasm. The attic, the cellar, a wing, or even the apartment ver- anda may be transformed into one of these delightful rooms. A cellar which had in ' the past, been nothing more nor less than a prosaic place" for furnace and pre- serves, has suddenly become ° the favorite resort of the youth of a certain neighborhood. The boys of this family loved the sea and so the idea of transforming the cellar into a sort of indoor ship. One we:zk's allowance covered 'the cost of paint, canvass, and rope. But Mother and father and the whole family, including the little sister whose part was to make gay nautical cushions, spent many. enthusiastic hours helping to outfit this room. Two ship's lanterns and a com- pass and bell were heirlooms, the gangplank was an ingenious affair of white-washed scantlings, ana the life preservers were white-washed inner tubes, bearing proudly the family name. Is it any wonder that this family surveys its handiwork with pride? } Time and space will not permit more than a scanning of the charm: ing atti¢c which became the center of the happy activities of a certain house with more furniture than il knew how to use. This project was more a matter of arranging furni- ture already in the attic, and the gay splashing of paint by the family artist. The outstanding ,charm of this place was the pictures painted on the bare walls. The cost in this case was the cost of the paint. "Why didn't we think of it before" the family is asking.

PLAIDS A very interesting note in interior decorations, and far from bizarre if discreetly used, is found in the use of plaids, It is a modern touch in the color scheme that is employed in various ways, at present. It may seem daring for instance, to use plaid walls in a room. But some un- usually pleasing wall papers 'are in early American effects that show softly blurred diagonal plaids. A hall- way thus papered, suddenly gains distinction, and requires little other decoration--on the walls at least. Diagonal plaids are also quaintly in- viting on bedroom walls, while those used with floral borders for the breakfast" room suggest the garden trellis. rg Many smart box coverings, screens and tray linings are made of plaid serve about six people.

SUNDAY SCHOOL LESSON Lesson I1I.--The Christian at Prayer. Matthew 6:5-15; Ephesians 3:14. 21. Golden Text. -- Continuing steadfastly in prayer.--Rom. 12: 12. THE LESSON IN ITS SETTING TIME.--The Lord's Prayer is part of the Sermon on the Mount, which was spoken in midsummer of A.D. 28, the second year of Christ's minis- cry. Paul wrote his Epistle to the Ephesians at some time during the two years, A.D. 61, 62. PLACE.--The Sermon on the Mount was spoken on the Horns of Hattin, a hill wes! of the middle of the Sea of Galilee. Paul wrote Eph- esians while a prisoner in his own hired abode in Rome--his first Ro- man imprisonment. "And when ye pray, ye shall not be as the hypocrites," Hypocrites are pretenders, actors, those who go through a form when their hearts are not in i. "For they love to stand and pray." Standing was the com- mon attitude of prayer in Christ's day, as sitting was the recognized posture of teaching. "In the syna- gogues and in the corners of the streets." In «hose places they could be seen by the largest number, and especially at the street corners, where they could by seen by people com: ing from four direv.ions, and were splendidly conspicuous. "That they may be scen of men." They wished to be renowned for their piety. "Verily 1 say unto you." Christ's common mode of emphasis. "They have received their reward." . Their poor, trivial reward, the reputation of piety. "But thou, when thou prayest, enter into thine inner chamber." Thy close: or closed place of prayer. The Jews had such a place usually in the upper part of the house. "And having shut thy door." To shut out intrusion and shut one's self in with God. "Pray to thy Father who is in secret," The more alone we are so far as men are concerned, the least alone we are so far as God is con cerned. "And ¢hy Father who seeth in secret shall recompense thee." All that you need and more than you are entitled to." Our good deeds do not deserve reward as a due from God. "And in praying use not vain (that is, 'empty,' meaningless) re. petitions, as the Gentiles (the heath- en, non-Jews) do." "lor they think that they shall be heard for their much speaking." Long prayers are not here condemned, if only they ae sincere prayers. [It is vain repetition that we are urged to avoid. "Be not therefore like unto them." Chris's disciples were not to imitate the scribes and Pharisees, though they were the religious leaders of the day; they were to imitate Christ. "For your Father knoweth what things ye have need of. before ye ask him." God is our loving Father, and all fathers want their children to rely = a upon them and bring to them their needs and desires. ye. To guide his followers in the then suggested that matchless prayer which is in itself a model, a formula, and a summary of all our wightful requests. "Our Father who heaven." God and think of him as Father, and the particular kind of Father Jesu conceived him, then every word In our vheology must be a household, a home-like word, and all God's rela. tions with us will be personal rela tions. "Hallowed be thy nam." Christ teaches you to pray first as « child, and then as a worshipper. "Thy kingdom come." Theve is a beautiful translation in an old Mora: vian version of the Scriptures of the saying of Gabriel to Mary concern- ing her Son. It reads in our English version, 'And of his kingdom there shall be no end." "Thy will be done, as is in heaven, :0 on carth.," If that were done, it would abolish all the vice of the world, and therefore the misery which springs from vice, Ah, that God's will were but done on carth as it is in the material heaven overhead, in perfect order and obed ience, as the stars roll in their courses, without rest. The bread problem was with Christ in the wilderness temptation, as he fed the five thousand and four, all through his life. Christ was "no that ever lived, the most person that ever set his hand to any great work in the world. "And forgive us our debts, as wa also have forgiven our dbtors" Three words are uscd to point out that for which we need forgiveness: debts, what we owe to God; sins, used er, the evil we have done in God's sight; and trespasses (verse 1d), a word used to signify a false step, sometimes a defeat, and generally a ransgression, "And bring us not into tempta tion, but deliver us from «he evil one (margin, "from evil"), The meaning of this portion of the Lord's Prayer is perfectly expressed by Paul (1 Cor. 10:13): God is faithful, who will not suffer you to be tempted above that ye ave able; but will with the temptation make also the way of escape, that ye may be able to en- dure it. : SMFor if ye forgive men their tres passes, your Heavenly PFuther will also forgive you." It is not of deep significance that this clause of the force? In the words of Martin Luth Lord proceeds to explain and force? In he words of Martin Luth- remind us of the ground or condition of continued blessing; and, more: over, when spoken from the heart it may be regarded as a seal affixed by Go to the absolution which is desired. "But if ye forgive not men their trespasses, neither will vour Father forgive your trespasses." but have asked for it in vain because of a spirit of selfish unforgiveness. Class-Conscious At Age of Four Four young children. little more than babies, stood before the gates of their kindergarten in Moscow and quarrelled bitterly. "You," declared four-year-old Petia toa weeping little girl of her own age, "are nothing more than an opportun. ist element and we should fight against you," ' ' "I'm not," tearfully replied lro- chka, "Like the teacher said," retorted the accuser, "you ave thrusting a knife futy the back of the world proletar- fat." "Mother never lets me touch a knife," sniffed the tearful infant, This illuminating conversation would not have been recorded hut for the fact that a .correspondent of "Pravda," the Russian Communist daily newspaper, was passing at the time, . Ilardly able to believe his ears he went in search of the teacher who had, apparently, accused a baby ot evil designs on world revolutionaries, Ile found her. Aged 20, what she lacked in common sense she made up in enthusiasm, . All her children, she informed the reporter proudly, were enrolled as members ol the Society for aviation and chemical defence, and she had tried, though with. less success, to make them members of the "Society for Ald of World Revolution." Apparently the babies objected to this. The young woman had heard noth- ing of the Soviet Government's re- eeht decrees admonishing teachers to remember that children were, even in Russia, still only children, and should not be filled with communist ideology they could not understand. The Government has even ordered textbooks to be rewritten which will pay more attention to fact, and less to the teaching of Communism, The reporter asked the teacher where she got her fdeas for the teach. ing of the young. She showed him a book which declared that proletarian children become class-conscions at the age of four, Hence, said the hook, the revolu- tionary education of ohildren should begin at four. "Preposterous," thought the repor. ter, deciding to write to the Com- missariat of Ilducation about it, Then he took another look at the book.
