womans world by mair m morgan serving meals out of doors the first consideration in planning meals for serving away from the fam ily dining room is to reduce the num ber of dishes to a minimum a oue- dish combination of some sort with a salad and dessert simplifies serv ing as well as tltsb washing very often the salad may be put on the table in an attractive salad bowl for each aiembei to help himself if you use compartment plates the salad plate is unnecessary casserole dishes combining meat and vegetable pies are splendid main dishes for dinner al fresco and for bread make bread and but ter sandwiches or butter rolls and put them in the oven to beat veal and vegetable pie this is a delicious and attractive digit that may be varied interest ingly the vegetables may be cooked early in the day and the meat cook ed the day before if convenient when you want to prepare your dinner you will need to make the crust and bake it the crust will bake while you are setting the table and putting the finishing touches on the salad or des sert one pound lean veal t cup tiny cooked onions 1 cup diced cooked carrots 1 cup cooked green peas 2 cups cooked potato marbles 2 table spoons butter salt and pepper 1 cup flour 214 teaspoons baking pow der 2 tablesnocps shortening 4 tea spoon salt milk choose veal from the small part of leg since it is usually cheaper and more meat must be cut in small pieces anyway cover with boiling water and simmer until tender but not broken add salt and let cool in stock over night it convenient re move fat and bone from meat mak ing neat pieces for serving arrange meat in a buttered casserole remove fat from stock and strain through cheesecloth there should bo about two cups of stock the liquid in which the vegetables with the ex ception of the onions were cooked may also be used melt butter stir in hour and when bubbling add stock stirring constantly bring to boiling point season with salt and pepper add prepared vege tables to meat in casserole and pour over sauce mix and sift flour salt and baking powder rub in short ening and cut in milk with a knife use enough milk to make a soft dough roll on a floured molding board and cut with a small biscuit cutter cover top of mixture in cas serole with biscuits and bake in a hot oven until biscuits are thor oughly baked and brown on top it will take about thirtylive minutes for baking the biscuits because the sauce meat and vegetables retard the baking serve from baking dish planked dishes are excellent for outdoor serving too the hot plank keeps the food hot and of course a variety of vegetables always sur rounds whatever meat you are serv ing the individual planks are just the thing for families who do not have the same ideas about meats and vegetables because each one can have what he particularly likes cut one small pineapple into flue strips one iuch long and add one diced pimento then put in a dash of curry powder no more than can be put on the tip of the blade of a small knife the juice of one lemon a pinch of salt and onequarter pint whipped cream mix the ingredients together in an ice cold bowl and when ready to serve line a platter with bits of crisp lettuce and put the salad in uio centre garnish with pieces of pimento two sliced hard- boiled eggs and brazil nuts cut lengthwise rhubarb care should bo taken not to over cook rhubarb vitamin c is de stroyed if subjected to too great heat for too long a time as little water as possible should be used to pre vent burning because the fruitvege table is very juicy of itself cover the sauce pan and as soon as the rhubarb boils it should be done always add sugar when removing from the fire adding other materials to pie plant makes it possible to obtain dishos of increased food value rhu barb combines excellently with almost any other fruit beside the foodstuffs commonly used with fruits the extra materials may be chosen to make up for tne lack in the rhubarb for example adding raisins to slewed or baked rhubarb adds iron tothe dish and increases its efficiency rhubarb shortcake pie usually comes immediately to mind when rhubarb is mentioned but there are numberless other desserts which are delicious when made with rhubarb frozen desserts hot or cold puddings and gelatine desserts use tins common garden plant to excel lent advantage well sweetened rhu barb sauce is amazingly good with plain rice and cornstarch puddings rhubarb shortcake is a simple des sert make an oldfashioned short cake with baking powder biscuit dough after baking split and but ter and fill with sweetened rhubarb sauce serve with plain or whipped cream rhubarb tapioca pudding is made two ways the fruit may be cooked with tapioca and sugar in water or the tapioca may be cooked and pour ed over the rhubarb arranged in a buttered baking dish and the whole baked thirty minutes in a moderate oven serve with sugar and cream or a custard sauce rapid progress on worlds greatest passenger vessel

summer salads they add the right amount of nourishment to a dish that otherwise might be considered too light to keep the con- suinor from getting hungry before the next meal the housewife who lias to consider the healthy appetites of a husband and growing sons will do well to plans menus that centre around salads which are filling as well as cool and appetizing brazil nuts go well with nearly everything but particularly do they lend themselves in a delectable way to fruit salads heres a fine recipe for a main course summer salad that uses chopped brazil nuts shred onehalf pound of brazil nuts ideal vegetable swiss chard or spinach beet as it is sometimes called is one of the most delicious succulent summer ve getables on the market there are several varieties some with dark green curly leaves and others with broad lightcolored leaves but each variety has a thick white midrib that is cooked and served like asparagus while the leaf is used as greens the health composition of chard rivals that of the much lauded spin ach thus its especially rich in iron which makes it a perfect vegetable to serve during hot weather when meat is used sparingly the vitamin con tent is good and chard is a cheap source of vitamins because the veg etable never is high priced and vita mins are present in goodly amounts chard also has the peculiar virtue of supplementing the protein deficien cies of other vegetables and cereal foods and contains a certain sub stance which enables the body to make use of all the mineral content available cook in little water the same rules of cooking hold good for swiss chard that are ap- plied to other delicate vegetables cook in as little water as possible and lor a short period of time ttie seasoning is important because chard will be criticized as flat if not pepped up with a dash of lemon juice the person who is eating to re duce will find chard a good friend on account of its remarkable palatabil- ity when dressed simply with salt and lemon juice meantime hie person who is eat ing to gain weight may add calories to his diet by dressing his serving with butter or a rich sauce the veg etable like bforcoi and spinach is at its best with a smooth hollan- daise sauce cut the thick centre rib in uniform lengths and tie in small bundles cook in boiling water adding salt after the first ten minutes of cooking cook the thin part of the leaves just as you would spinach in the water that clings i the leaves when ten der chop th- leaves fine and arrange them in a border on a deep serving platter garnish with hardcooked egg and fill the centre with the thick ribs in hollandaise sauce use leaves in salad the tender small leaves may be used without cooking in salads the taste is rather like romaine chard is also good cooked in the stock in which ham was boiled all greens are appetizing cooked this way the flavor of the meat adding much to the tasle or the dish a rich cheese sauce goes well over chard too the vegetable and sauce may bo put into a shallow baking dish and the top browned in a hot over before sending to the table orange eggnog this rule for an orange eggnog will serve two persons one egg one orange one cup chill

them and thous knowest that thy servant did fear jehovah her husband had been a faithful pro phet and his widow deserved especial care for his sake if not for her own and the creditor is come to take un to him my two children to be bond men the poor widow in order to obtain the bare necessities of life for herself and her children had been obliged to go farther and farther in to debt and elisha
