Stew Can Be Economical, Appetizing j BY SISTER MARY VEA Service Writer When a stew is made carefully ' and properly, it is one of the most j satisfying and nourishing foods that j can be served to a hungry family, j Cheap cuts of meat can be used to ] —-cat advantage and the finished : pish is both economical and appe- | fixing. The success of a stew depends | on the careful seasoning and copk- j mg of the meat and vegetables. Greater skill and cleverness are j required to prepare a delicious j stew than to broil an expensive steak. The steak might be dubbed “fool-proof.” for only the most villainous cooking could ruin it, while stewing meat must be treated with discrimination to make it popular. Meats Are Varied Nowadays* all sorts of meats are used for stews. Beef, veal, lamb, mutton, pork, ham, fresh and salted f\6h being infinite variety to the one-time plebeian stew. tJnusual flavoring and seasoning, colorful garnishing and inviting serving will make any stew attractive enough to please the most fastidious taste. Dumplings add interest to all stews, but especially to veal. Lamb stew gains much from canned peas. A stew made from remnants of cold roasts is made savory by a combination of onions, canned to-
DAILY MENU BREAKFAST Halves of grape fruit, cereal, cream, scrambled eggs, crisp bacon, graham and raisin muffins, milk, coffee. |L LUNCHEON—Cream of to- ' I mato soup, croutons, sweet potato salat:, whole wheat bread and butter sandwiches, lemon pudding, milk, tea. DINNER—VeaI stew with dumplings, baked squash, ap- j pie and celery salad, butterscotch pie, milk, coffee. matoes and _acaronl. Carrots provide color when other means of garnishing are not at hand. A few mushrooms give the final touch to any stew that makes a real feast out of plain fare. The rule for vegetable cookery holds good in stews. Do not overcook the vegetables. Add them just long enough before serving to allow them to cook tender. No Waste of Minerals Since the vegetables are cooked with the meat there is no waste of valuable mineral salts. The liquid in which both the meat and vegetables are cooked is served with the stew. Beef, veal, or lamb make delicious stews suitable for all members of a family. The liquid with sifted vegetables can be given to even the youngest person at the table. The stew proper, in all its glory of meat and vegetables, will satisfy the hungry hunter or football player. A brown stew is assured if the meat is cut in cubes, rolled in flour and quickly browned in melted fat before simmering. Made Tender by Simmering Gentle simmering for two hours or longer insures perfect tenderness m the meat. Careful trimming of excess fat and gristle is essential. If bone is included in the cut it should be removed before serving. The liquid can be thickened or not as preferred. If thickened, the vegetables should be skimmed out to prevent crushing while the thickening is being stirred into the liquid. One tablespoon flour stirred to a smooth paste with a little cold water will thicken two cups of liquid.

Just Every Day Sense
BY MRS. WALTER FERGUSON
TODAY a deluge of letters on the subject of the married woman in industry. The majority are protests from widows and unmarried girls, and a few explanations from the culprits who spring naturally to their own defense. Singularly enough, about the only person who does not express himself in this heated controversy is the husband who is amply able to support his toiling wife. He is keeping singularly mum, it seems to me. We have heard the arguments of the woman who is helping to pay off the mortgage, of the wife whose husband does not make enough to meet current bills, of the girl who resents jobs being given to those who are married, and endless complaints from the men who look for work and find positions filled by women. But from papa, the real Senegambian in the woodpile, there has come no word. t: a tt YET it is reasonable to believe that this entirely adequate fellow could brighten the situaiton considerably. If there are so many women in industry whose husbands could support them in comfort, why do not these strong, capable men simply say to their wives: "Here we now have a sad condition in business. It’s time that women like you stayed at home, so that needy workers could have your jobs. I, my darling, can and will support you. Get to the kitchen, pronto.” And if he was the man he should be, she’d obey. This whole bad business could be mended if the husbands would exhibit a proper spirit of national concern. But have you heard anybody preaching to them about patriotism and unselfishness? I haven’t. Husbands who could boss their wives would come in real handy for a spell right now, provided, of course, they also desire to give up that extra salary for the family bank account themselves. At any rate the married woman in business has a partner in crime. Let’s get after him for a change.

The new dance steps tn vogue during the present holidays are described by Arthur Murray, noted instructor, in a series of twelve articles on the “New Tear’s Dances,” which he has written for The Times and NEA Service. This is the second article of the series. BY ARTHUR MURRAY Written for NEA Service THE Argentine tango step has that inspiring, rhythmic movement to it—step, hold, sway—that one associates with romantic Spanish dancers, their lace shawls, castinets, red-heeled slippers. Both the man -and the woman must know any tango step to make it a success. If they.do, their steps take on a polished beauty, of performance that is a joy to watch. THE MAN’S PART: 1. Stand with back to the center of the room. 2. Begin with-the left foot, take a two-step directly to your left, count 1 "AND” 2. 3. Slowly draw the right foot up to the left, weight on the right, count 3, sway to the left. 4. Repeat the entire step. Turn, two-step a few steps, reverse and repeas. Practice for at least fifteen minutes alone. Note that the last step is done slowly. THE WOMAN’S PART: 1. Face the center of the room. 2. Begin with the right foot and i take a two-step to the right. 3. Slowly draw the left foot up to i the right, weight on the left foot, ! count 3, and sway to the right. 4. Repeat the entire step. This should be practiced alone and then practiced with the man until the step is perfected before trying to dance it in public. An excellent piece of music to practice by is "Body and Soul.’’ NEXT: The Berlin waltz.

Fur Jackets Stir Hearty Enthusiasm BY FRANCES PAGET (Copyright. 1930. by Style Sources.* NEW YORK, Dec. 19.—Key cities throughout the country report enthusiastic reception of the fur jacket. It is a logical follow-up of ether jacket fashions, the jacket costume having scored heavily in every walk of recent fashionable life. Naturally, furriers have lost no time ki promoting jackets, not only for sports, which ,at first seemed their natural sphere, but for other purposes, even the most formal. Beautifully gowned audiences demonstrate that the preference in evening wraps is toward extremes, the long, fur-collared velvet or lame coat on one hand, and the abbreviated saucy little fur jacket on the other. Afternoon costumes also were augmented by fur jackets, ranging from bolero to paletot types and making demands on al sorts of fur bearing animals, some of which have no great occasion to boast of their ancestry. Fashion refuses to make any social distinction between the sheep and the goat, and has a preference for, instead of a prejudice against, black sheep. They are seen everywhere. While fur jackets, are by no means restricted to lamb-like pelts, or to carefully manipulated goat, such furs as are either flat or curly and relatively flat are best liked. In this list is Persian lamb, moire caracul, broadtail, and galyak, a long list that may as well end here as anywhere since it would almost be sure to have omissions no matter how painstakingly compiled. The main point is to remember the fur jacket, and remembering it match it to a hat of fur or part fur and, of course, a tiny melon-like muff.
Private Tea Is Given in Honor of Miss Ayres Mrs. Frederic M. Ayres received i her friends this afternoon at tea at i her home on Sunset lane in honor of her daughter, Miss Anne Ayres.
