FOOD FOB THE FAMILY OB FOB GUESTS
(See Recipes Below)
It takes little imagination to
evolve a good meal in summer.
Whether you are planning a menu
for the family or for guests, there's
all the wealth of the world from
which to choose!
There is fresh asparagus and
home-grown berries, new potatoes,
tiny green onions, and all the other
tender green things from the
garden.

gether, and plan
your menus
around fresh
tasting fruits and
vegetables, for
they have win
ning ways with
jaded appetites. There's the minted
pineapple cup pictured above, that's
a grand first course for a summer
lunch or dinner; it's as refreshing
as a cool breeze off the lake! There
are fruit salads; too?cool and color
ful as summer gardens; and vegeta
ble plates, which, well arranged,
have appetite-appeal galore. Ahd,
by the way, your calorie-conscious
friends will bless you if you serve
them, when you entertain the club,
these refreshing, filling, but not too
fattening combinations.
Plan your menus around some of
the fresh and tempting recipes be
low, and when you serve a salad or
vegetable for the main dish of the
meal, serve with it some unusual
bread, a beverage, and the simplest
kind of dessert.
You'll find tested recipes for un
usual bread and rolls to serve with
summer meals, in my cook book,
"Better Baking."

r)0 YOU need a screen to keep
drafts from a child's bed? Or
perhaps you would like to have a
good-looking one to cut off the view
from the dining room into the
kitchen or from a bedroom into a
bathroom? Well, here is an idea
for that screen. Buy four well
seasoned boards each 1 foot wide;
1 inch thick and as long as the
height you jwish the screen to be;
also 9 hinges of the l-inchv butt
type used for cupboard doors.
Next, select a smart chintz to cov
er your boards. To estimate the
amount of chintz, multiply the
height of the screen by three and
then add yi-yarU. Now, just fol
low the directions in the sketch
and you will have your, screen in
*no time.
And, by the way, if you are in
terested in making a collection of
fabric toys, complete directions

for the Rag Baby on the floor are

Time doll on the bed and the Ban
danna doll on the shelf are in
Book 4; the Stocking Cat is in

directions for the crocheted rug in
Book No. 3. Directions for the
lamp shades are in Book No. 1.
