You think you can remem ber but your memory may play tricks on you. Don’t waste time and energy trying to remember or being sorry you forgot. Keep a pad and pencil in several places.in the house for convenience in jot ting down plans, ideas, things to do, things to buy, etctt Time for this will be time well spent. GET FAMILY COOPERATION: ' Your success will depend to a large extent upon the interest and cooperation of family members who share the work in doing household tasks. TJie wise home manager will plan household activities witlj her fam ily arthaf each’ member twill1 lie responsible for doing definite things. Household tasks can be made attractive and interesting to children. Children very quickly catch the spirit which older family members show in their, attitudes and work habits. If jobs are per formed happily,, children are more apt to learn and enjoy sharing in in the responsibilities and work of keeping the home running smooth ly. Early training oi cniiaren Dy sharing home work is invajua.ble.; It develops resourcefulness,- per sonality, and character. SoTnatlier, you may be,doing your,, child an injustice when* you rush around and do jobs yourself, feeling- that it will take too-much time to teach the child to do it. - Take a pencjl and paper and list all the things you did yesterday. Place a check mark by those that could have been „done by some other member of your family. In additioojo assigned farm and home dutiesoplanned by the whole family, each member should; 1. Keep, own clothing and per sonal things in order. 2. Put books, magazines, news papers back in place after use. 3. Clean lavatory, bathtub, wash pan after each. use. .. ..... 4. Try to oevrcome habits that cause unnecessary clutter and dis order in the home. Mrs. Dula's Students Win Writing Honors Three students of the Walter M.

Adventure . HI * Good Eating by |mh— i All of us like meats tender, juicy, and more flavorful, but sometimes we have difficulty in getting our meats just the way we would like them. Let's see if we can improve on our methods. As we found last week we should select the meat we plan to cook by grade. For a roast or broiled meat we should select ‘‘Choice’-’, If we plan- to use a moist heat meth od “good" or “Commercial can be used. If you are going to cook it for a long time there’s not much use in wasting your money on the top grades. However, when we use the dry heat methods we have_to begin with a better prod DON1* srir >ouY -oeer sfealtf turkey, or what have you before you cook it. * Salt is capable * of drawing your natural juices and flavorings out with the result of a fine tasting gravy and bland meat. TRY a meat thermometer for roast beef or a turkey. For young wives who have not had years of experience cooking this is some thing that will be an invaluable, aid. They cost only about $1, and your meat* Is never overdone or too rare—it’s always just a$ you wish it. For a roast beef cut a small slit in the biggest muscle (if you need to), insert the- thermometer into the center, and put in an open shallow roasting pan, fat side up. Do not cover nor add water. This allows the fat to seep through the meat instead of just Out m the pan. Put in a 300 - 350* and let" it cook until the thermometer reaches the degree of doneness you desire (this, will be from 25-30 minutes per pound at 300°). The thermometer will be marked rare, well done, me dium rare, etc. Remove, slice and serve IMMEDIATELY Plan your meal so \1nir roast-will be the last item ddhe. If you wish you may put a few potatoes in the oven to cook along with the roast, j At a low temperature you might have to put them in the over sometime before the roast. The family will be pleased to have such a fine meal, and if hub by is a steak lover, he won’t be able to' tell the difference. Turkey and*fish are cooked just ''as'"Weir'fKI.s 'T6w hear manner too. Turkeys, in particular, show a definitely qbetter taste when cooked at a low temperature for a long period of time. They are much more moist and have more flavor and more poundage be cause you don’t lose their juices. In cooking shad, cook it tifor maybe 6 hours at 225 or 250° (wrapped in foil) and you will melt all the bones—this, too, makes a delicious product. „ .
