Good to Eat

I’M here again with two excellent, recipes using prunes. The first is a beautiful dessert that is creamy, itch and very handsome. It's a Bavarian cream which means the use of whipping cream so you will have to use it for a “company” dinner. PRUNE AND ALMOND BAVARIAN CREAM FOR 6 4 pound prunes 1 orange 14 tablespoons gelatine '/4 cup sugar Few grains salt 4 tablespoons finely chopped blanched almonds 1 cup whipping cream 4 teaspoon vanilla 1 cup prune juice Wash the prunes and let stand in cold water to cover overnight. Cook in the same water with the grated rind of the orange. Soften the gelatine in four tablespoons of the cooled prune juice. Heat the remaining juice—there should be one cup—and dissolve the sugar and the gelatine in the boiling juice. As soon as the juice boils, remove from the fire and stir in the gelatine and sugar until they are melted. Now stone the prunes and cut, in small pieces, enough to make 4 cup. Add to the gelatine mixture with juice of the orange. Stir over ice and water until the mixture begins to thicken. Then add almonds, salt and cream whipped until firm. Line a mold with remaining prunes and turn the cream mixture into mold and let stand in the refrigerator until chilled and firm. Unmold and serve plain or with custard sauce. This will not be a solid pudding as all bavarian creams are soft, but it should hold its shape. This next prune recipe is for spiced prunes and they really are delicious. If your family doesn’t care for stewed prunes, I think they will be tempted with them spiced. ' SPICED PRUNES FOR 4 4 pound prunes 3 cups water rind of Vi lemon rind of 4 orange 4 cup brown sugar 4 cup vinegar 3 slices lemon Little salt, cinnamon, nutmeg Wash the prunes in warm water, put them to soak for 3 hours in a pan with the 3 cups of hot water. Then cook until soft in this water, adding the lemon and orange rind. Now they will be stewed. To make them spiced, make a syrup of the brown sugar, vinegar, lemon slices, salt and spices. Boil until thick, add to the cooked prunes and cook down for a few minutes. Serve very cold. Contract.

Solution to Previous Contract Problem BY W. E. M’KENNEY American Bridge League Secretary HIGH cards often prove a bit confusing to the average player. For example, in today's hand declarer should have no trouble in making his contract of ttyee clubs, and you know that in rubber bridge overtricks mean little or nothing. Therefore, your first duty is to make your contract. Declarer lost his contract, however. because he tried to cash his king and queen of spades before picking up the trump. The opening diamond lead was Mrs. Hamilton to Report on A. A.U. W. Meet Ideas garnered from the Northwest Central Sectional Conference of the American Association of University Women at Milwaukee last week are to be presented to the Indianapolis branch board members next month by Mrs. Calvin R. Hamilton. local president, who attended the conference. Following examination by the board, some of the points may be incorporated into next year's Indianapolis program. Mrs. Hamilton, as Indianapolis delegate, attended two panel discussions held at th° meeting. One, "New Frontiers for University Women.” dealt with community problems and vocational guidance. The other concerned vocational guidance. General discussion was held at a breakfast for presidents representing clubs in the five section states, Michigan. Wisconsin, Illinois, Indiana and Ohio. Dr. Glenn Frank. University of Wisconsin president, who spoke at the conference on "Education and the Social Welfare” told delegates that, university-trained persons were to furnish leadership for the future, Mrs. Hamilton reported.

won by declarer with the ace, and the king and queen of spades cashed immediately, as declarer had hoped to be able to discard his losing diamonds on dummy’s ace and jack of spades. At this point a small club was led and declarer finessed the jack. South won with thg queen of clubs and then cashed the king and queen of diamonds, North discarding a small heart. South then led the ten of diamonds. declarer dsicarded the six of hearts, and North trumped with the king of clubs, forcing dummy to overtrump with the ace. Declarer returned the ace of spades, hoping to discard one of his hearts. But South trumped with the deuce of clubs and forced declarer to overtrump with the five. Now the declarer could not avoid losing two heart tricks. The contract could have been made easily if. upon winning the first trick with the ace of diamonds, the club finesse had been taken immediately. Then there would have been no chance of getting into trouble on this hand. (Copyright. 1336. by NEA Service, Inc.)

Women Hear of Frauds Styles of Schemes Vary, Bureau Head Notes. Current conditions influence styles in frauds in the same manner as they determine fashions in clothes. Toner M. Overley, Better Business Bureau director, told Indianapolis Council of Women delegates at a meeting this morning in Ayres’ auditorium. ‘‘You remember how King Tut relics flooded the market after excavation of the tomb. Fashions featured the Egyptian emblems and buyers were gullible enough to buy the faked relics,” he said. He pointed out how governmental events provided ideas for schemers. After prohibition repeal, liquor stocks w r ere the popular worthless investments peddled. WPA Work Described “Prevalence of these frauds in a community tend to stagnate business,” Mr. Overley explained. “The crook is a nonproducer; he doesn’t give economic return for what he takes.” Mrs. Letitia H. Carter Indiana WPA woman’s division director, described the women's work. She explained that 75 per cent of women clients sew in workshops and library, teaching, recreation, clerical and miscellaneous project-: employ 5 per cent each. Other Speakers Heard She said, “Women working on records in Spencer County have organized valuable historical material dating back to 1820 and information regarding Abraham Lincoln's boyhood is expected to be uncovered.” Albert Stump spoke on “Smoke Abatement and Why” and Mrs. O. S. Jacquith of the W. C. T. U. explained how scientific temperance is taught. Mrs. J. H. Armington, extension chairman, reported 21 clubs had been admitted to the club during the past year.

MY DAY By Mrs. Franklin D. Roosevelt

N. Y., Monday.—l awoke this morning: to the sound of many birds chirping: outside our cottage window at Hyde Park. My visit there was most exciting:, for Miss Cook has been adding: a room to this cottajre and any new building: operations are quite thrilling, I think.

We have decided to make some changes in our shop arrangements also, so that I had a very busy stay but got away on a fairly early train for Albany where I met with a group of people interested in the adult education program in the state. This program covers many phases: Recreation, parent education, nursery schools, workers' education, arts and crafv vocational education, and work with the handicapped, both young and old. It was a most interesting discussion of problems and I think the fact that New York State started it* program early has given it a certain advantage.

pf . * m

Mrs. Roosevelt

There have certainly been a fine group of people working on all phase* of the program. On the way up I was reading an interesting article in the Country Gentleman written by one of the best women reporters in Washington, Genevieve Forbes Herrick. It does not always follow that a good reporter is a good magazine writer, but if this series of articles on Washington personalities, especially women, is any indication, I think w® are going to read many interesting things from her pen in the near future. In spite of a serious automobile accident an months on her back as a result of it, Mrs. Herrick has now taken up ?r work again. Some time, when I have time hanging heavy on r. * har is, I am going to begin picking out men and women in the localities that I know, and will write the story of individuals who actually are the inspiration of much that happens in large and small communities. I have just had tea in the garden at the executive mansion al Albany with Mrs. Lehman and have seen many old friends in the household. Soon I must get ready for a 6:30 dinner with the City Club.
