WASHINGTON'S BIRTHDAY FETE MENU OFFERED Anniversary Inspires Special Delicacies for Those Who Celebrate. BY MARY E. DAGUE According to George Washington's biographers, that courtly gentleman delighted in the finery of the day and used to send to England for long lists of lovely things for Lady Washington and her daughter. That makes me sure he would approve an adorable little Colonial lady as a centerpiece for your Washington's Birthday dinner. Begin the dinner with Blue Points. Be sure to have them well chilled and loosened from their shells and provide all the traditional seasonings so that each person may choose his own particular favorite. For the main course, chicken ala Maryland on sliced Virginia ham is fitting, with candied sweet potatoes and new peas in cream on the side. Don’t Forget Cherries A fruit salad featuring big salad cherries and pineapple in lemon jelly Suggests the famous cherry tree story (which maybe wasn’t true!) Serve the salad with brown bread sandwiches cut in the shape of tiny hatchets. For dessert, nothing could be more appropriate than cake and syllabub. Syllabub is sweetened whipped cream flavored with wine or jelly and was a favorite dessert in George Washington's day. For the cake, bake any favorite recipe or the one I'm giving you in a tube cake pan. Dress a little doll in a short-sleeved bodice of crepe paper or ribbon, drape a bit of lace or chiffon over her shoulders for fichu, powder her hair and pose a little lace cap on it and set her in the hole in the center of the cake. Fill in any crevices around the doll with waxed paper before putting on the frosting. Cover cake first with white frosting. Then when this has dried use pink frosting to suggest pan - niers or a little puffed overskirt. Washington’s Birthday Cake Two-thirds cup butter, IV3 cups light brown sugar, 3 eggs, 3V2 cups flour, 5 teaspoons baking powder, 1 teaspoon cinnamon, ’ a teaspoon nutmeg, 1 teaspoon salt, 3 2 cup sweetened condensed milk, 2-3 cup water. IV3 cup chopped dates. Cream butter and sugar, beating until sugar is dissolved. Sift flour once and measure. Sift two or three tablespoonfuls into butter and sugar mixture and beat well. Add eggs well beaten. Mix and sift remaining flour with salt, baking powder, cinnamon and nutmeg. Blend milk and water. Add dry ingredients alternately with milk to first mixture. Add dates, which have been pitted and chopped. Mix well and turn into a tube pan which has been oiled and dusted with flour. Bake in a moderate oven (350 degrees F.) for one hour. Butter Frosting Two tablespoons butter, *4 cup sweetened condensed milk, IV3 cups vanilla. Cream butter and beat in milk. Rift sugar and gradually add to first mixture, beating until the frosting is smooth, creamy and light in color. Cover cake with white frosting. Then color what is left with a few drops of pink vegetable coloring matter for the contrasting panniers. Chicken ala Maryland Disjoint chicken and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Dip in melted butter, then in fine dried crumbs, then in egg slightly beaten with one tablespoon water and again in crumbs. Place in a single layer in a well buttered baking pan. Baste every five minutes with two tablespoons butter melted in two tablespoons hot water. It will take about 45 minutes in a hot oven to cook the chicken. Serve each piece of chicken on a thin slice of baked ham and pour over one or two tablespoons of sauce made by adding one cup of cream to pan in which chicken was baked. If fowl is used in place of chicken, parboil after disjointing for 40 minutes. Cheese Fondue 5 i pound Chateau. 3 eggs. 3 2 -teaspoon salt. 1 tablespoon butter. 1 cup scalded milk. 1 cup soft bread crumbs. Allow Chateau to stand at, room temperature until softened. Force through a sieve. Scald milk, remove from fire. Add butter and salt. Pour slowly over well-beaten egg yolks. Add soft bread crumbs and Chateau. Beat egg whites until stiff and fold into mixture. Bake in buttered pan in a slow oven (250 to 350 degrees Fahrenheit) for 20 minutes. Serves six.

CHEESE FORMS FOUNDATION OF LENTEN MEALS Supplants Meat in Diet, Giving Both Variety and Nourishment. Lenten restrictions on meat are likely to be especially irksome to male palates, particularly those that scorn vegetables and salad greens. But good temper and a full nourishment quota can be assured the male contingent if the housewife builds her Lenten menus around the infinite variety of cheese and gives special deference to the masculine love of such high-flavored delicacies as Liederkranz, the famous American invented cheese, and Camembert. A generous-sized Chateau sandwich gives a scimpy menu full nourishment value, as u’ell as the needed quota of calcium and vitamin essentials. A piquant Chateau sauce on vegetables often will overcome that male prejudice for meat and potatoes only. A platter of assorted cheeses and crackers for dessert is a continental favorite that has a sure appeal to masculine taste. Camembert and Liederkranz take, the male votes in cheese popularity and are enonomically priced. There is no waste because even the crust of those famous cheeses is considered a delicacy by epicures. Here are piquant recipes that have a special masculine appeal. Liederkranz and Onion Sandwiches Liederkranz. Rye bread. Butter. Marinated Bermuda onion. Spread slices of rye bread with butter and then with Liederkranz. Cover with thinly sliced marinated Bermuda onion. To marinate onion, add salt, pepper and sliced onion and let stand 20 minutes. Cover with another slice of bread and garnish with stuffed olives.
