WEDNESDAY, MARCH 10, 1948 THE DAILY TIMES-GAZETTE PAGE SEVEN Mixing. Bowl Hello Homemakers! With many people looking over seed catalogues in anticipation of succulent garden- fresh vegetables, it is difficult to settle down to the prosaic task of talking about carrots and potatoes and turnips. However, we find that there are many new ways of hand- ling these stand-bys to make lenten meals interesting. There are other foods recommended that we often neglect because the family were not enthused at first--namely Joranips, dried peas and beans; an pumpkin. SPICED PUMPKIN 3% cups pumpkin (1 can) 1 thsp. butéer, 1 tsp. salt, % tsp. pepper, % tsp. ginger, 1 egg, beaten. Pour pumpkin into saucepan and add beaten egg and seasonings.

Shake them into another pan and add a little cold water. Heat or finish cooking, (Do not scrape any burned pieces into fresh pans.) 2. Slice a Spanish onion into the juice left from a jar of sweet mixed pickles. Leave "in_ pickling syrup for a week--then use as pickle; . . very gobd. 3. Next time you make cream sauce, make twice as mach as you need and put half of it in the re- frigerator to use in a day or so. This saves both time and labour. 4. Prepare vegetables to bake, roast or steam in the oven at same time and so conserve electricity. AR 4 THE QUESTION BOX Mrs. W.

She's going to give a party to cele- brate her birthday: "We are planning a party for my 16th birthday, a buffet supper and dancing," she writes. "I want it to be formal, then the girls will wear long evening dresses, but the boys always wear light-colored sports jackets. "I am planning to send written invitations and I want each boy to call for a girl. Shall I tell them which girl to call for in the invita. tion? want to have an escort, too. Should I ask him in the in. yitation to be my escort? Should I tell the boys to get corsages for the girls? How will they know what time to go home?" It's OK to send written invita. tions, but most girls and boys pre- fer a simple phone invitation that doesn't require a written reply. Whether you write or phone, state that you're planning a birthday celebration (give the date) from 8 to 11 or 11:30 or whatever the usual deadline is in your locality. Then they'll know what time to go home, If the girls wear long evening dresses, boys should wear dark suits, preferably navy blue. Instead of asking the boys to es. cort a certain girl in the invitations, phone each boy a few days before. hand and ask him to call for Jane or Betty on his way to your home. Why an escort for you? You're not going anywhere. If yoff like a cer. Fun - tain boy, you'll probably have the first and last dance with him, but | otherwise you, as hostess, should share your attention equally. The party is for the group; not couples. You cannot ask the boys to pro- vide corsages for the girls. The girls aren't their guests; they didn't in. vite them. If you want ihe girls to | have flowers, it's up you as host. ess to give them s corsages as party favors, But ages are only for big, formal affalrs. You'll have as much fun without them.

Discontented Women Should Seek Cause A great many stay-at-home wo- men are dissatisfied with them- selves and with their lives, with- out being able to understand why. They should be happy, but they aren't. And they don't know what to do about it. Often, the trouble is just that First Prayer For the Baby's room -- a prayer panel to hang over his bed.
