Tag ends of a roast, tired fruit, left over vegetables, and the last serving of a casserole are frequent casualties in many households. fr ft // ENTERTAIN VETERANS - The Ladles auxiliary to Veterans of Foreign Wars Post 4600 entertained thirty-five patients from the Veterans administration hospital of North Chicago at a Christmas party held aU^he post home. Some of the patients are shown above enjoying tM chicken dinner, which was followed by games where prices were canteen books and candy bars. Energy Saving For a Small Planet DID YOU KNOW? \&Y SOUP'S ON THE EASY WAY When there's a chill in the air, there's nothing like a steaming kettle of homemade soup to satisfy hungry appetites. The de­ licious aroma of a hearty slow-simmering soup and freshly baked bread is something we all associate with traditional fam­ ily suppers on a nippy autumn evening. But today's working wife and mother can't afford to spend hours in the kitchen before announcing, "Soup's on." Now, thanks to the wide variety of frozen vegetables and bread doughs available today, these family favorites can be prepared in record time. Since frozen vegetables are ready for immediate use, there's no peeling, slicing, cleaning or dicing to be done by the busy homemaker. And there's no waste either. Frozen bread dough needs only to be thawed and shaped." Messy preparation and time-consuming kneading have been eliminated. Not only are frozen vegetables convenient, but they're nutritious. Freezing seals in nutrients which are often lost in canning or during lengthy shipping time. Serve this flavorful Harvest Chowder topped with grated Parmesan cheese, Cheddar cheese cubes or croutons. And sprinkle a little basil, caraway or sesame seeds on the crispy bread twists to add your own individual touch. HARVEST CHOWDER 4 strips bacon, cut in 1 -inch pieces * Vi cup frozen chopp€$ onions „ 1 small clove garlic, minced 1 teaspoon basil, crumbled 1 package (10 ounce) frozen whole kern^Tcorn 1 package (10 ounce) frozen peas ari&carrots 1 cup frozen Southern style hash browns 1 can (133A ounce), ehicken broth / % teaspoon salt - „ Vi teaspoon pepper 1 tablespoon cornstarch 2 cups half-and-half 2 tablespoons chopped parsley In large saucepan, cook bacon until crisp. Remove bacon and add onion, garlic and basil to remaining drippings. Cook slowly until onion is tender. Add com, peas and carrots, hash browns, broth, salt and pepper. Bring to a boil, cover and reduce heat to simmer. Cook over moderate heat 10 minutes, or until vegeta­ bles are tender. Stir cornstarch into half-and-half and add to chowder. Cook, stirring, until soup comes to a full boil. Add parsley. Makes IV2 quarts chowder. Serves 6 to 8. With a whopping 40% of the nation's fuel production consumed by buildings, en­ ergy consultants , archi­ tects , engineers and inter­ ior designers have a lot of advice to give today's homemaker to help save dol­ lars without sacrif icing a well-decorated home. Energy saving techniques fal l into two categories, passive and act ive. Active systems require mechanical equipment--pumps, pipes, fans and ducts which con­ vey- heat to s torage areas and then to l iving areas. Passive systems use exist­ ing elements--like the build­ ing's skin, to collect and store heat . \ Energy conscious decor at ing,using oass4ve energy- saving principles, is one immediate \solutipn that 's practical and fun and doesn' t require a degree from MIT. First , think of natural materials-cotton, s i lk or wool for upholstery, and hardwood for furniture, f looring, paneling and shut­ ters . Nature 's materials are fashionable", wil l contribute their beauty to your decor and, best of al l , help con­ serve energy. Hardwood is a part icularly good example: for one thing i t is a renew­ able resource that is plenti­ ful- in supply and, in addi­ t ion, i t requires a minimal amount of precious fossi l fuel in i ts production. Decorating a kitchen us­ ing passive techniques re­ sults in act ive good looks and efficiency too. Let hardwood cabinets provide storage here; they stand ujf" well to heavy use and the wood's natural graining wil l add depth and dimension to the room. A great choice for an eating surface is a butcher block table with i ts parquet pattern adding de­ sign interest . As counter tops too, butcher block is a practical and popular ma­ terial . Like hardwood in i ts other forms, butcher block is easy to maintain and gives years of service. The butcher block cutt ing board has been around for a long t ime and is s t i l l the favored cutt ing surface in ki tchens and butcher shops around the world. Chairs of cane and hardwood complete the furniture needs of a kitchen with grace and style. On the f loor, s late or terra cotta t i le has the energy advantage of s toring heat during the sunny hours of the day and releasing i t in the evening. Decorative touches combine practical functions ut i l izing nature 's materials , oak beams pro­ vide visual interest and placement tor t rack l ighting; plate rack displays collec­ t ions; hand-painted birch veneer plywood "curtains" at the window never need ironing. "Lining" a room in hard­ wood is another good en­ ergy saver. The first reason is psychological . Wood helps create the feel ing of warmth in a room. When sur­ rounded by nature 's mater­ ial , one actually feels warmer even when the temv perature is actually a couple of degrees lower. Hardwood shutters save en­ ergy every day. The air pocket that is created be­ tween the glass and the wood insulates and helps keep the cold air out of the room. Color and l ighting are an important factor in the feel­ ing of warmth in every in­ terior spac^. Even pictures and wall hangings . add warmth. A bare wall creates an austere look that is def­ ini tely cold. Energy conscious decor­ at ing pays immediate divi­ dends in good looks and can substantial ly shrink uti l i ty bi l ls in the bargain.

Grate hard ends and pieces j, of cheese into a cheese jar for seasoning casseroles, scram­ bled eggs or spaghetti dishes. When apples and pears get slightly beyond the point that you want to eat them raw, turn them into gelatin salads. Use leftover meats and vege­ tables. in soups, stews and casseroles. Play a ' 'choose your own" night regularly. That's when the family chooses from the leftover dishes--spaghetti, meat loaf, chicken--whatever the refrigerator inventory has identified as needing to be moved on its way. The kids often are pleased to get seconds of a favorite food, and the cook has a meal in the bank. ^ • An old Indian recipe waa the forerunner of Boston baked beans.
