GOOD TO EAT BY LOLA WYMAN

RECIPES FOR TWO HERE’S a variation on our old friend, the prune whip. This recipe uses those prepared cans of prune puree usually sold as baby food. The advantage of using the prepared puree is that you don’t have

any prunes to • soak overnight, there’s no cooking necessary or any mashing. It comes from the can, ready for use. One small can (and they are very small, holding about Yt cup of puree) costs 10 cents and makes exactly two good portions of baked whip. BAKED PRUNE WHIP FOR 2 1 can (!4 cup) prune puree. Pinch of salt. Yolk of an egg. One-fourth cup sugar. 1 tablespoon butter. 2 egg whites. 1 teaspoon vanilla. Place the puree in a small saucepan, add a pinch of salt, yolk of one egg, beaten well; sugar and the butter; cook gently until the butter is melted, stirring constantly. Let cool and fold in two egg whites beaten stiff, add vanilla and pour into a small greased baking dish. Bake in a moderate oven for about 20 minutes. Serve warm or cold with cream or top milk. i .iother good recipe for two is a Creole omelet made the French way, with nothing but egg and hot v,ater. This makes the fluffiest omelet you ever tasted. CREOLE OMELET FOR 2 1 tablespoon butter. 4 eggs. 2 tablespoons olive oil. 2 onions. 1 cup canned tomato. 1 green pepper. 1 teaspoon salt. Ts teaspoon pepper. First, prepare the sauce by heating the olive oil in a frying pan, add the chopped onions and minced green pepper and the tomato, salt and pepper; cook slowly until the onions and peppers are tender—about 20 minutes. Beat the eggs—just before serving —until very fluffy and add 4 tablespoons of hot water gradually—melt the butter in a large frying pan and when a light brown, turn in the eggs. As they brown, lift the edges with a spatula and let the uncooked part run under. When the omelet is brown underneath and creamy on top, fold once and slip on to a hot platter, surrounding it with the Creole sauce. Do not wait a minute before serving an omelet; serve as soon as it comes from the pan. FRANKLIN PROM SET FOR MAY 22 Times Special FRANKLIN, Ind., May 11.

THE INDIANAPOLIS TIMES

BY MARJORIE BINFORD WOODS Times Fashion Editor THE man on the flying trapeze may have swung out of town with the circus, but he left this undaunted couple with a reckless “let's play” spirit. They are all dressed up to go places and here we have them on their way! No mad roller-coaster whirl can dampen their fun or rumple their clothes—for they are garbed to match the merriest of carnival moods.

The laughing lass who grabs her white panama sailor so frantically is having the time of her life in a grass-green Austrian print that goes native with white pastoral scenery. Playful little goats, peasant women busy with their rakes and men wielding scythes appear in miniature all over this cotton play-frock! It is the personification of youth and frolic and you’ll fiiid other of its mates in various versions of barnyard and circus scenes depicted on linens and cottons, in active and spectator sports dresses, at many of the local shops. n n n T TER 4 triple-A feet, that have been pushing so excitedly against the dash board, are trim and summery in white, widestrapped gabardine shoes that are a sports rule this merry outdoor season. There’s nothing new about shooting the chutes as far as her gallant swain is concerned, but there is something decidedly new about his Glen Urguhart plaid sports jacket with its unusual drape. “Women have no monopoly on the puffed sleeve market,” says this clowning Lothario, as he points ,

He’d sooner lose his shirt at the roulette stand, well wager! And if you will note, he should value that shirt highly, for it is one of the new Oxford styles which he wears quite dashingly with one of the latest Tartan plaid wool bow ties. Out of sight, but not out of mind of the fashion-wise males are the smart green gabardine slacks which he wears with white buck brogues boasting of foxing as their decoration. Say what you will, but it is clothes like these that we need in this vale of tears to make living a merrier and jollier “bump-the-bumps.” Luncheon Is Arranged A covered dish luncheon is to be held at the Butler University Phi Delta Theta Fraternity house at 1 Thursday by the Mothers’ Club.

MY DAY By Mrs. Franklin D. Roosevelt

YORK, Sunday.—My mail contained some interesting information this morning—food for thought! Figures were obtained by the Chamber of Commerce in a large industrial city where one of the heavy industries is the main source of income for the people. This industry is at present producing as much as it did

in 1929. Ordinarily this would mean work for everybody, but since the depression $10,000,000 has been spent In modernizing these particular plants with the result that they are now using 10,000 fewer men than in 1929. Two million dollars is to be spent shortly on further modernization, and much of the heavy work done in the past by men, and skilled men many of them, will be done by machinery. College and high school boys, who stand on a balcony somewhere and press buttons, are preferred for this work today. Four men will do the work of

one hundred men before long! Can you blame the people In this district for looking hopelessly into tfie future? For wondering where their livelihood is coming from? They can see their jobs walk away from under them. Food for thought in all this. Is the machine which promises relief from arduous labor so that a gracious living may be enjoyed, going to mean no living at all? Obviously we can not stop invention or scrap machines. What then is the answer? Have the great leaders of industry found it? Two evenings in New York and both evenings spent at the theater. “Boy Meets Girl” is very light and amusing, but I’m glad my job isn’t in the movies! ‘‘End of Summer” is perhaps more amusing and appealing to my age. One line will stick in my head lor a long time—“At the end of every road you meet yourself.” Good doctrine for young or old. A great gathering of Democratic women in Brooklyn and all enjoying themselves! Saturday was their day and all the leaders came to do them honor. Now for a quiet Sunday in Hyde Park after the drive in the Sunday traffic is over. (Copyright. 1938, by United Feature Syndicate. Inc.)

Boy Is Entitled to Enjoy Girl s Friendship, Advice

Put y.iur qiifutions In a letter t Jane Jordan and read her an.iwera In thl* column. Your comment on all answeri is invited. Dear Jane Jordan—l know a club of boys and girls at high school. All will be 18 shortly. The girls have been chums for years and so have the

boys. I am an older woman and know of this group through one of the young girls who is my second cousin. Her boy friend is the baby of a family of three and 12 years younger than his brother. He is an A-plus student, in line for a college scholarship, and

Jane Jordan

always has been a pal to his folks. He did what they asked and went where they desired until he met this young girl cousin of mine. When they discovered his friendship for the girl they almost forbade him ever to see her again. He was terribly depressed and confided in me. I talked to his mother, whom I have known for years, and she said the boy wasn’t old enough to go with girls and it was out of the question. His oldest brother was married at 19, his courtship starting in high school. “After all,” she said, “he is our baby and we just can’t let him get away from us so young.” They even object to his writing to the girl while in college for fear it will interfere with his studies Are they fair with this boy? Should my cousin’s parents co-operate with these selfish folk and try to break up this innocent little affair? OBSERVER. Answer—ls you stumbled upon an ignorant woman trying to stunt her son’s physical growth in order to prolong his babyhood and keep him as a delightful plaything for herself, would you co-operate with her in her shocking selfishness? In my opinion this mother’s attempt to interfere with her son’s normal development and make of him an emotional dwarf is every bit as shocking. I should not feel the slightest compunction in tearing the blinders from the boy’s eyes and aiding him to escape from the smothering blanket of mother love. To provide ways and means of letting this boy enjoy the friendship of a suitable young girl is comparable to giving a hungry child bread when his parent's refr.se it. The adolescent boy has two great problems in life not to be learned from books. One is to break his emotional dependence on parents, the other to adjust himself to the opposite sex. To interfere with either is to put the boy’s whole future in jeopardy. Some parents join in a sort of unconscious conspiracy to prevent their children from growing up. Instead of encouraging the child's first efforts to attach himself to MUSIC STUDENTS TO HOLD DANCE Arthur Jordan Conservatory of Music students are to hold their annual junior prom May 22 at the Marott. All alumni, students, faculty members and friends of the conservatory are to be invited. Maurine Warner and Francis Fitzgerald are co-chairmen for the event. Committee chairmen are Warren Foreman, hall; Charles Henzie, orchestra; Miss Marguerite Blackketter, decorations, and Miss Madonna Mullenix, advertising.

someone outside the family circle, they are jealous. When the day comes, as it must, that the child must cope with the outside world, make his own decisions, earn his own living and find himself a mate, he has no background for it, no training. The Chinese used to bind their daughters’ feet but they weren't surprised when they hobbled. Parents who regard themselves as both humane and civilized bind their children’s individual powers by refusing them freedom to use them in youth, and they wring their hands when the children hobble. The spectacle is very sad. R. F. Murrays to Be at Home Here on June 1 Mr. and Mrs. Raymond F. Mur-, ray, who were married Saturday al the home of the bride’s parents, Mr. and Mrs. Arno G. Siefker, 4015 Ruckle-st, are to be at home after June 1 at 6101 Haverford-av. The bride was Miss Virginia Siefker before the marriage. She wora a turquoise lace jacket suit, with pink and white accessories, and a corsage of roses and sweet peas. Following the wedding, members of the immediate families attended a reception.
