! Sally Learns

| How Fast She - Can Spend $5

| After ‘All, It Isnt So | Much, She Finds on Shopping Trip.

BY OLIVE ROBERTS BARTON

Sally went down town on Sat- | urday morning with five dollars— | five dollars her father had given her | for stockings and sundry, saying as | he handed it to her, “Take part of this and buy mother something nice.” She felt like Croesus, or Loretta Young, Sally did, as she climbed on the bus. Never had she had so much money in her life. Money with almost no strings to it, either, except—oh yes, she must be sure to get “something” for mother. At any other time the ride and the fall-clothed passengers would have absorbed this 15-year-old's attention. But today the new hats and other clothing could not compete ‘with the staggering visions of her mind’s eye. Shopping List Expands

How money could shrink when you began to add! Besides, it wasn’t five dollars, it was only $3.50 when you subtracted that dollar and a half for mother. Wasn't that fair enough? Idly she wondered’ what mother would like, Well, mother wouldn't really care. Besides, she would appreciate a dollar’s or even a half dollar's worth as much as a dollar-and-a-half’s worth. Sally’s Saving Grace

Once in the stores, Sally had an orgy of looking, comparing and selecting. The stockings — those very sheer ones—cost more than she thought. Things always were. more. She was ~aghast when she saw a quarter and a dime in her purse. The dime would have to take her home. What now could she’ get with the quarter? Oh, If she had only bought mother something nice first! She called up her father and honestly told her story. “I feel so terrible,” she confessed miserably. “I kind of lost my head.” And he said, “Sally, I'm glad it happened this way. I rather thought it would. If you had. given your mother one-tenth of what you got for yourself, I—well, you wouldn't have been my girl. So, come around and we'll go out together and see what we can see.” There is no moral to this story except that Sally had saved herself. How many Sallies do? (Copyright, 1936. NEA Service, Inc.)

Feld Supreme Joy of Home

Beats New Clothes and Parties, Says Woman; She Tells Why.

By NEA Service y “Of all the jobs a woman can d there is none which so repays, in satisfaction and intensity, as bake ing bread.” A woman who knows, and whole= heartedly loves, her job as a home= maker wrote those words. She is Margaret W. Jackson, and on the subject of bread-making, she has still more to say. The quotation is from the Inland Poultry Journal. “Of course there are other jobs around. the house which bring a reward and satisfaction all out of proportion to the actual value of the work.

Bread-Making Praised

“But bread! As I turned out my pans, last Monday, and the golden brown loaves came cleanly out, smelling to heaven of delicious fragrance, I felt that I knew how the beggar felt in the old story. Bread is the symbol of housewifery. It is the symbol of life itself, of plenty, of sustenance. “To have mixed it, and molded it and set it to rise and baked it in the oven, to have the fragrant rich loaves stored away for the family's food—. Well, parties may be fun, and new clothes a satisfaction, but baking bread beats them all. And when we think of bread and butter, it is to think in the same breath of hur+-ery little children, growing snergetic and eager, to whom nothing in the world tastes as good as their bread.” Now then, = remembering Mrs. Jackson's inspiring words, perhaps you'd like to set to work at once to make a pan of bread rolls. Here is the recipe:

Recipe for Hot Rolls

One cup milk, 1 cup boiling water, 1-3 cup sugar, 4 teaspoons salt, la cup lard or butter, 2 cakes coms-

pressed yeast, 14 cup lukewarm wa= °

ter, 2 eggs, 812 cups sifted flour. Sift flour once before measuring. Heat milk to scalding point and add boiling water. Add shortening, sugar and salt and let stand until Iukewarm, . In the meantime soften yeast cake in lukewarm water, stire ring until dissolved. Add to lukewarm water mixture. Mix and add eggs, well beaten, and 4 cups of flour. Beat well. Stir in remaining flour. If wanted for refrigerator

rolls, cover closely and store in ice

box. If wanted for immediate -use, cover and let rise until double in bulk. Grease tips of fingers and pinch and cut off small pieces of dough. Work into balls and place side by side, 4 inch apart on a greased pan. Let rise again until double in bulk and bake in a moderately hot oven (375 degrees F.) for 25 minufes.

Oct. 24. The guest speaker for the March 12 meeting is to be ane nounced later.
