How many women have kept their names on a bridge club membership list through the years because they joined when they were strangers in the town and were afraid to offend by declin ing? How many women fidget ana squirm through the meetings of culture clubs because they are afraid they’ll be marked as »tay at homes? How many worqen are reluctant members of some auxiliary group of their husband’s professional or ganization simply because they are afraid that if they refuse to Join they will hurt their husbands? How many women are bullied Into membership in some cluib be cause the boss’ wife or the town’s social leader says with sweet fi nality, ‘ My dear, you simply MUST belong”? Because an overwhelming num ber of American women be long to an impressive number of women’s clubs it is assumed that they LOVE women’s clubs. Of course, if a woman belongs to half a dozen—then she is a dyed - in - the - wool club-woman who wouldn’t know what to do If it weren’t for her club member Ships that make her feel impor tant.

Patent Qffle* . . —— COT OFF TOPS OF LtAVCS IF TRANS PLANTING ON -Herr PAY KEEP CABBAGE NEAP FROM BURSTING, BREAK SfpE ROOTS BY BENDING _ PLANT ^ First Aid for Late Cabbage By MAN HALLWAY Distributed by Central Press Association Late cabbage is an important vegetable for the home garden. It is high in Vitamin A, B and CL It can be used as cole-slaw for salad purposes, cooked as a vege with the rows about 30 inches apart. Late cabbages are usually set out between the 1st and 15th of July. They should be spaced 18 to 24 inches apart, in the row, with the rows about 30 inch esapart. When transplanting cabbage in warm weather set the plants a little deeper than they stood be fore. A good general rule is to set them so that the soil comes fairly close to the first leaf. The top of each leaf can be sheared off to check evaporation, as shown in the accompanying Gar den-Graph. If planted too early the heads of late cabbage will mature in warm weather and are apt to burst. When this happens push the plants over, as illustrated. This breaks some of the side roots and checks development of the heads. Home gardeners sometimes as sume that cabbage plants are hard to kill and therefore do not handle them as carefully as other plants. This is- especially true when transplanting them. This is a mistaken idea for if the plants are not handled carefully they may wilt down before their roots have taken hold. Cabbage plants properly han dled, like any other plants, will be stronger growing as well as better able to withstand insect pests and diseases. Pretty Food Encourages Good Work HEW YORK — Hearty, colorful and tasty meals served at mod erate prices in industrial plants is a long step on the road toward perfect employer-employe rela tions, in the opinion of Mrs. Clare Guthrie. Mrs. Guthrie, home economist and head dietician for a firm of industrial cafeteria managers (In dustrial Food-Crafts, Inc.), is re sponsible for about a million meals a day, served in plant cafe terias all over the United States. “Good food.” she said, “will keep happy, enthusiastic workers trooping to work every day, cut down waste, accidents and absen teeism. It will also increase pro duction.” Labor and management consult freely and frequently when her firm takes over the problem of feeding a new group of em ployes: the first to tell her what the men and women like to eat and the latter to cooperate in brightening up restaurant eur roundings. Color on the walls or on the plate is one of her favorite themes. She likes to serve a green leafy vegetable or two. a yellow thoroughly heated add the potato dice. Stir until well mixed and serve at once. Scalloped Patty Pan Squash 1-2 cup cracker crumbs, 1-4 cup melted butter or margarine, Salt, i-2 teaspoon powdered sugar, 1-2 cup cream, Patty Pan Squash.

Place half of the squash in bottom of baking dish and sprinkle with salt and powdered sugar. Cover with half the crumbs. Repeat and pour cream over all.

As much as she dislikes drab walls, Mrs. Guthrie is a greater enemy of the drab meal: white meat, white gravy, white potatoes, white rice, white bred—and all set on a white plate. She has studied regional food preferences closely, and is able to verify what casual observers have long suspected: New Englanders prefer clam chowder. baked beans and brown bread, like salt water fish better than fresh wa ter, like pie for breakfast and pour maple syrup with a heavy hand. Southerners want fresh hot breads thrice daily, like hot corn pone and com muffins, dark cane syrup or molasses, strong ooffee. pork frequently, hot grits, lots of rich gravy and salt' pork season ing with almost all vegetables. Midwesterners enjoy heavy sub stantial foods, heaps of butter, pastries and potatoes. Ham sandwiches, apple pie and Ice cream go big in any section. “Furthermore,” Mrs. Guthrie, said, “there is nothing to the story that men are better cooks than women. Women have an instinc tive something that enables them to add an indefinable touch to food. Men lack it.” F , Many Attend Surf Club Weekly Supper The popular weekly supper was held last evening at the Surf Club. About 104 members and their guests were on hand lor the eve ning’s festivities.
