There is something friendly about the making of toast. In the space of a few minutes the rosy glow of the toaster or the quick heat of the oven transforms the fresh golden crispness of good toast. And toast is a versatile food, for its fragrance and flavor add pleasure to any course in any meal. Grood toast may be made by a variety of methods: electric toaster, oven, broiler, top burner toaster, over glowing coals. Any. of these methods will produce the kind of toast that is best liked: crisp throughout, crisp on the surface and soft inside, light brown, medium brown, dark brown. The quality of the toast depends chiefly on the amount of heat that is applied, and the length of time the bread is exposed to the heat. Melba toast, crisp and golden, is most easily made in a slow oven. Just plain toast may be varied any. number of ways. Cinnamon toast is delightful for breakfast, as are also honey butter toast or fruited toast. Savory toast is delicious with vegetable or seafood salads. Hot milk toast makes a perfect Sunday evening supper for the family, or a cold weather lunch. Hteiich toasted cheese sandwiches served with apple or other fruit salad satisfy the coldweath'er wish- for something warm to serve with salad. And for one of the quickest one-dish meals ever ‘invented,- toast rings on creamed salmon and peas ought to take a prize. Toast Rings With Creamed Salmon And Peas 3 tablespoons butter 3 tablespoons flour 1-2 teaspoon salt 1-4 teaspoon pepper . 1 1-2 cups milk 1 cup canned salmon, flaked 1 cup cooked peas 6 slices of -bread Grafted cheese

cWHAFSDEUSE? What’s de use o’ groanin’ ‘Cause de clouds is black ? All yo' -silly ‘moanin' Never push ‘em back. Trouble may be cornin’ Cornin’ in a heap; Jes’ go keep a-hummin’ Hum yo’self to sleep. What’s de use-o’ grumblin, When de ground is wet l T’undah may be rumblin', Don’ yo’ never fret. Storm’ll soon be ovah, Flowahs bloomin’ fine. Crops’ll be in clovah W’eri de sun does shine. What’s de use o’ shoutin,’ Gettin’ sort o’ mad? T'ings.dat set you poutin’ Makin’ -othahs glad. Wouldn’t it be lovely. Tell me square -and true, If the worT was only Made fur me an’ you ? A PRAYER If I have faltered, more or less. In my great task of happiness, If I have moved among my .race, And shown no glorious morning face. If. beams from happy human eyes Have moved me not; if morning skies. Books and my food and even rains -hocked on my sullen heart in vain, Lord, Thy most pointed pleasure take And start my dormant spirit to awake.

Melt, butter, add flour, salt and pepper, stirring until smoothly blended. Add milk and cook over low heat, stirring until slightly thickened. Add the salmon and the peas. Butter a baking dish and pour the creamed mixture into it. Cut the bread with a doughnut cutter and toast. Place the toast rings on top of the salmon and peas. Sprinkle with grated cheese. Place in a moderate oven (375 degrees F.) until the cheese is melted. French Toasted Sandwiches Make sandwiches in the usual way. Cheese, ■* peanut butter, jam sandwich spreads, deviled ham, make especially good filings for this type of sandwich. Dip each sandwich into a milk and egg mixture made by beating 1 egg, and adding to it 1-4 teaspoon salt and 1 cup milk. Fry sandwiches in butter until the bread has become golden brown. Serve hot, accompanied by fruit, jelly or

jam.

Wasn’t exactly incapacitated last week, but I do believe that I did imbue in the “spirits” a wee bit too much during the Yuletide to write, with much “sense.” I surely played the part of a “JITTERBUG HEP CAT” or what have you—because I consumed a Nbit of the olde spirits. 1939 is here and we are ready to settle down to a very sane and quiet new year by drinking simple cocktails and wines. Here’s yourwee k’s cocktail— COFFEE COCKTAIL One jigger of Port Wine One jigger of Apricot Brandy One spoon of Powdered Sugar One Egg Fill shaker with ice-—shake well and strain into a 5 oz. glass.
