SUGGESTIONS AND REQUESTS.
(From Mrt. M. F. P., Arlington.)
Can atop, pulled taffy candy (for
Mrs. Μ. Ή., Falls Church): One
quart cane sirup, 1 tablespoon but
ter, 2 cups granulated sugar, 2 table
spoons vinegar, 1 lemon (juice), y2
teaspoon baking soda (level).
Boil sugar till quite thick when
dropped into water. Add sirup,
vinegar, lemon and butter. Boil till
it hardens when dropped into cold
water. Tlien stir in soda, pour into
buttered tins, and as soon as cool
enough to handle, rub hands with
butter and pull till white. The sticks
may be single, twisted, braided or
flattened. My own memory of child
hood was of' half being left white,
the other half colored pink before
pouring out, then the two colors
braided together.
Electric blanket: Many thanks,
Mrs. A. W. M., for your write-up.
I wonder if you have any sugges
tions for ·: double bed where each
person's heat requirement is differ
ent, whether this would need two
separate blankets and how such a
bed could be made up?
Saggeation for this column. Have
the readers who requested recipes
tried out the ones in the nearest
cookbook before writing for help? It
would save a lot of effort for those
replying if the recipe already tried
were submitted for criticism or con
structive help. Suggested changes
might then be \of some value to
others as well who may have
had trouble with the same re
cipe or be«n makinf the same mis
take. When all is said and done,
each cook naturally prefers her own
"simply delicious" concoction but
welcomes improvements in tech
nique, and this is the information
that is sadly lacking in the cook
books. The reader who said that
there is a "trick" or important point
in the preparation of each dish cer
tainly had the right idea, so I say
let's have less requests for stand
ard recipes, let's all consult more
cook books and leave more room on
this page f<£r the really expert cooks
to give us important advice and
helpful hints. And I will start the
ball rolling myself with a "helpful
η
Rice: Regardless of what method
you are using: In cooking rice, if
your rice has been soggy or gummy
do this: When you test it and it
seems done but "isn't quite done"
TAKE IT UP. It IS done or will be
when served. That last minute that
you cook it, Just to be sure, does
all. the damage. Overcooking by
60 seconds can do a lot of damage,
and 5 minutes over is a calamity
that belongs in the garbage can, not
on the table.
Pots and pans: Enamel pots.
Never use ordinary scouring powder.
It scars them. The only one to
use on enamel and also on glass
has for its trade mark a baby
chicken which "hasn't scratched
yet." This will even remove most
of the black scars left by ordinary
scouring powder.
To remove stains in enamel pots,
add chlorine bleach to water and
bring to a boil, let stand a few
minutes.
Aluminum pots, after steel wool
scouring, boiling vinegar water will
bleach stubborn stains. A touch of
vinegar in water when boiling pota
toes will prevent staining. \

IDENTIFYING PUDDING?
(From Mrs. J. S. H„ Washington.)

could identify and give me the
recipe for a baked pudding I ate
in a Jewish home years ago. It
was sort of caramel, as I recall,
and was baked in a ring mold, and
had a caramel sirupy sort of a bot

the order of an upside down cake,
it was very rich, and dark brown

SHINY SEAMS?
BOTTLE FROM BABY?
(From Κ. B., Solomons, Md.)
I recently had the seams let out
some on a black crepe dress and
in pressing the seams out, it made
the material shiny and can be seen
very plainly. I used a press cloth.
I wonder if some one knows of
something to remove the shine.
Also I would like to know if
some mother has had an/ experi

baby that has gotten in the habit
of going to bed with it.

SHRINKING PIE CRUST.
(From Mrs. J. R. H.,
Mitchellville, Md.)
Here is my idea for keeping pie
crusts from shrinking and not near
ly so much trouble as the ideas
Mrs. J. C. P. had. After rolling
the pie crust out, I turn the pie
plate face down, arrange the pie
crust over the bottom of the plate,
prick to let air escape and bake
at the usual temperature. After
cooking let cool and when ready for
use just take If off the bottom and
put it inside the pie plkte. It works
every time for me and I think the
idea is well worth passing on to
your readers.

The old adage that "beauty comes
from within'· is very true. And the
beauty of any costume depends
very much on whether or not you've
planned in advance. The Battle
of the Bulge has been dhe that
women have been fighting for a
long, long time. Therefore a little
strategy is essential in the choice
of the proper undergarments to be
doubly sure that your clothes look
and fit you well.
A design by the most famous
couturier will not be worth very
much if you have not chosen the
proper foundation. As with your
hats, your shoes and dresses, you
should have a wardrobe from which
to choose. One pantie girdle isn't
the answer, nor are two brassieres.
For different occasions—different
undergarments. Included in your
wardrobe should be several types
and several of each type of founda
tion garment needed. Popular
styles are the all-in-one for evening
wear, the standard girdle and bras
siere for daytime clothes or the
pantie girdle and brassiere for
sportswear. This way your founda
tion garments will "live longer" and
serve you much better because of
not too continuous wear. Number
alone does not count for much if
By Elent
the garment has not been chosen
properly. You may be assured of
this fact by consulting a corsetiere
who will assist you in the proper
choice of a garment. There is no
way of being certain of proper fit
except by actually fitting the gar
ment on the figure. One size may
be needed for a foundation made
of fabric, while another would be
needed for a garment with more
"stretch."
The proper care of your founda
tion garment is of great importance.
Minor repairs such as replacing
worn sections of elastic with new
elastic or with strong tape can he
done by you. Elastic should be
sewed with zig-zag stitches. Slip
on your girdle as you would your
stockings. If you don't you'll Vind
up with a torn girdle top, a broken
nail or a ruined manicure. But in
case you've done just that and must
do a patch-up job—patch up elas
tic with elastic if possible. If you
use clotlrto patch, allow at least a
half an inch all around.
Here are a few tips to help you
take care of your foundation gar
mem ts:
1. Fasten closing and turn wrong
side out.
2. If garment is very souea soais
for 10 minutes in a bowl of mild,
lukewarm soapsuds. If not, Just
long enough to squeeze the suds
gently through. Do not rub.
3. With a brush or a Turkish
towel with suds on it, gently go
over the soiled spots. Then rinse
three times in clear, lukewarm wa
ter. Squeeze the garment without
twisting or wringing. Place fn a
Turkish towel so as to absorb as
much water as possible.
4. Then straighten and shape out
the garment. For drying, lay it on
a Turkish towel. When almost dry
a warm iron should be used 1 to
smooth out the fabric sections. Iron
these from the inside.
If you are using a washing ma
chine put the garment in a net for
safer washing treatment. Run the
washer for five minutes, drain and
wash again for 10 minutes. Never
hang by garters or dry your «gar
ment in direct heat or sunlight.
Never iron the elastic portions of
your garments.
The larger woman should have
a sturdy garment to give support
and proper control for daytime work.
In the evening a foundation gar
ment of lighter weight with less
'When I Was Your Age..
The much-discussed teen-ager,
alternately maligned and praised, Is
once again placed under the micro
scope in the latest Public Affairs
Pamphlet, "Keeping Up With Teen
Agers." Mrs. Evelyn Millis Duvall,
executive secretary of the National
Council on Family Relations, is the
author.
Mrs. Duvall sees nothing alarm
ing or unwholesome in the teen
ager. She points out the difference
between the modern world and that
of dad and mother and suggests
that the youth of today are doing
quite well in a citifipd society no
longer regulated by a whaleboned
moral code, where the pressure of
the small town's Mrs. Grundy, un
seen but undoubtedly present be
hind the lace curtain, is no longer
felt.
Mrs. Duvall points out that most
young people today have more
money to spend than their parents
had at their age, and more to spend
it on. There are malted milks, soft
drinks, movies. The young man
finds himself in a richer world ma
terially, richer himself than the
young man of 25 years ago. He's
living in a world made wealthier by
the efforts of his parents and grand
parents. It is unfair and pointless
to criticize him for having more
money, or by restricting his use of
it. Instead, he needs help in as
suming responsibility for what he
has in the world in which he lives.
Juvenile delinquency has been so
much spotlighted that it becomes
easy to forget the thousands of
children who daily go to school
without stopping to shoot a police
man. Irresponsibility, defacing of
public property, carelessness in
caring for clothes and in keeping
rooms straightened also cause con
tention between parents and teen
agers.
It's important not to lose sight of
the fact that many young people
are not irresponsible. A great many
I By Betty Miles
[of them take care of their things,
respect the property rights of others
and assume a real responsibility
that exceeds that of many adults.
As a matter of fact, Mrs. Duvall
points out, it seems reasonable to
ask the logical question, "Why do
some young folk assume as much
responsibility as they do?" The
answer semes to be that people,
young and old alike, take as much
responsibility as is really theirs.
Mrs. Duvall has something to say
about study and the absorbing of
culture. In those homes where mu
sic flows as a language of parents
and children alike, it's a part of the
young person's life. Culture, «he
states, is caught, not taught.
There are also some sane sugges
tions on handling the "how late
should Johnny stay out" problem.
Unfortunately, in some homes it
becomes such an issue that it hin
ders the handling of other prob
lems T>f equal importance.
Grandma may not have had the
possibilities for work, recreation and
a way of living generally that Janie
has today, but neither did she suf
fer the confusion that comes from
trying to decide on the best life
possible for herself. There aje now
more than 20,000 vocations in the
United States. There were 338 vo
cations in 1870. In grandmother's
and mother's day society estab
lished what a "nice girl" did and
did not do. Today's "nice girl" has
to define the role for herself. The
standards the teen-agers live up to
today must come from within.
Times have changed so fast that
the gap between generations is
wider than ever. The older gen
eration is no more experienced in
handling the problems of the times
than the younger generation. Mu
tual understanding will help. Par
ents can speed up the process of
bridging the gap between the gen
erations. Mrs. Duvall believes/ by
I studying teen-age development
! through books, In classes, In discus
sion groups. Similar avenues to

open to teen-agers.

businesswoman who sits a large por
tion of the day needs a garment
that will help support her back and
control her derriere. The correct
foundation garment can help in
maintaining or regaining correct

Isidor Roth, one of the top au

that the correct foundation gar
ment is an aid to health as well as
to appearance. He proves this by
going on to say that during the
war, when millions of women worked

ruled that a foundation garment
was a necessity. Surveys showed
that the proper foundation gar
