In November and De cember they will contribute an ad ditional 280 dozen and another 200 dozen will be sent in by the county homemakers’ clubs at Christmas time, making a total for the year of 2,880 dozen or 34,860 cookies. The cookies are made as a part of a service carried on by the volunteer workers of the Mont gomery County Chapter of the Red Cross in co-operation with the Montgomery County Federa tion of Women’s Clubs, and each cookie when baked and wrapped is sent over to Naval Hospital at the National Naval Medical Cen ter. And how the patients there love them! Many Different Kinds There are all kinds of cookies in the boxes that are received at the hospital—sugar cookies, choc olate chip cookies, oatmeal cookies, ginger cookies, nut cookies and sour cream cookies—as many kinds as there are women to make them. Mrs. J. Alfred Kay. president of the Woman’s Club of Rockville, makes a mince meat cookie that is soft and spicy—she got the recipe, she says, when she was a student in home economics at the University of Maryland. When it is her turn to make cookies, Mrs. B. Peyton Whalen bakes a delectable bite such as she used to send to her son Horace when he was a third-year man at the “Point.” That was a long time ago; her son is now Col. Whalen, on duty at Carlisle. Pa.

Mrs. Whalen still makes the West Point cookies but she sends them to the Navy Instead of the Army. Mrs. Roger Whiteford is an other good cookie maker. She made sugar cookies for the hos pital for a number of years. Then her friends found out that she is also a good candy maker. So this year at Christmas time she will send candy instead of cookies for the hospital patients. Pet Recipe Used Each contributor to the cookie project uses her own pet recipe and once in a while one of the hospital patients asks for a spe cial kind and that is always pro vided. All of this cookie making is car ried out so smoothly that not so many people know about it. The committee responsible for its success is composed of Mrs. George Kelley, jr., who represents the Red Cross at the Naval Hos pital; Mrs. Louis A. Gravelle. con tact chairman for the club women, and Mrs. Martha Spruill, repre senting the Red Cross Motor Corps, which picks up the-cookies and delivers them to the hospital. Working with these women are other women who keep the record “of who makes cookies and when.” Altogether there are more than 500 women helping with this pro gram during the year. Mrs. Kester Hastings, who I worked out the details of the | plan for cookie-making when the program was first started in 1948, is back in Bethesda. She has been in Tokyo for several years while her husband, Gen. Hastings, was on duty there, and she was just as active in the Red Cross! work in Japan as she was in the Bethesda chapter. When Mrs. Hastings left here she was chair man of the volunteer workers in Robert Lipps To Take Bride Mr. and Mrs. Donald James Johnson of Galesburg, HI., an nounce the engagement of their daughter, Alice Lee, to Mr. Rooert Paul Lipps, son of Mr. and Mrs. Robert L. Lipps of Alexandria. Miss Johnson attended Knox College in Galesburg where she was affiliated with Phi Mu soror ity. She is now with American Air lines in Washington. Her fiance is an alumnus of the University of Virginia. He is at present asso ciated with the Advertising De partment of The Evening Star.. The marriage will take place in Charlottesville on December 6. the Montgomery County Chapter of the Red Cross, and while she was in Japan she was chairman of volunteer workers in Tokyo. Under Mrs. Hastings’ direction the Tokyo chapter made cookies, too. which were sent to hospitals in Korea.
