Homemaking—

Hints From a Housewife's Notebook on Stews and Pies and Meatless Meals

YOU CAN HAVE PIE without raiding your ration coupons IF you go in for deep-dish pie with a top crust and if you substitute suet for shortening. Mrs. Julia Kiene, manager of the home economics institute at Westinghouse, tells how to render suet: Carefully remove excess fat from meat before cooking. Store in refrigerator until you have about a cupful. Tear off outer layer of skin, then cut suet in small pieces. Put skillet or saucepan over a low heat]

and slowly fry out the fat. As fat melts, pour it into a bowl. Let cool before using. = = = Clean lamp bulbs give about 25 per cent more light. To keep bulbs clean, wipe the glass with a damp, soapy cloth, remove suds and dry well. Positively don’t “dunk” bulbs in water—the base is cemented to

the glass bulb and they're likely to|

part wet.

Meatless Meals \, REMEMBER THAT portions of

meat alternates must be at least doubled to equal the food value in an average serving of meat. Since that's impractical for ordinary menu purposes, here are gimple solutions: (1) Serve meat alternates funch, one for dinner.

Never soak silks and synthetics. Don't rub, twist or wring the garments either. They just can’t take it.

Little Goes Long Way

By ROSELLEN CALLAHAN Times Special Writer NEW YORK, May 6. —Kangaroos, derby-hatted poodles and dainty-hoofed fawns gambol across the new prints, most novel seen in years, which give sprightly life to this spring's streamlined styles. Newspaper headlines inspired many of the new prints. One designer had in mind the visit of China's charming Mme. Chiang Kai-shek when he sketched = typically Chinese head in fuchsia and white on a dark background, used in a superbly styled twopiece suit frock with a rippled jabot caught at the neckline by a fuchsia velvet bow. Symbols of the four freedoms make exciting, pertinent prints. And the A E F. in Australia brought forth an amusing motif— white kankaroos romping on a brilliant green ground, in a dress with molded body lines, trimmed with white pique bows which are worn outside its accompanying jacket. Rivaling the speed and popularity of the leaping Lenas from “down under” are galloping

fawns, their tails tied with huge fuchsia bows, used on a twopiece dress with black lace beruffled jabot of fuchsia organza. A blue ribbon winner at a recent fashion show was a spaced print of a saucy white poodle, holding a bright derby in his mouth on a black background, for a two-piece frock with bow pockets. And carrying out the derby the model wore one of lemon yellow felt with black binding and veiling.

Prints which profess to be nothing but just plain pretty are used for important date dresses. A shocking pink floral design on a black background is cut out and appliqued onto a sheer bodice of black marquisette in one of the new nude frocks. A wide black taffeta girdle hugs the midriff, subtracting inches from the waistline. And there are the oh-so-simple, but how dramatic chicken wire and brick prints which will give a lift to your wardrobe; coollooking navy and white scroll prints for summer rooftop dancing, polka dots with plenty of

dash and flash for business and

JANE JORDAN

A WOMAN WHO was shy as a child wants to know why she hasn't outgrown it at the age of 33. She is married, has children and is in good health except for nervousness. She suffers from a feeling of inferiority and likes to stay in the house away from other people. She feels panicy in a crowd and wants to run away and hide. When people look at her she is tense. In the dark of a movie she is at peace but feels awful in the lobby. She does not understand why she hates to have people notice her for she is nice looking and has good clothes. She knows that if she could overcome her shyness she would enjoy life more and wants to know if a psychiatrist could help her. n on o Answer—Timidity often is a defense against exposing oneself to rebuff. It is as if this woman said to herself, “People do not like me; so I had better stay away from them.” This feeling is apt to be a cover-up for a deeper conviction. “I do not like people; so how can they like me?” The interesting factor to discover is why this woman does not like people. As she herself has admitted, the trouble reaches back into childhood when she protected herself from contacts with a wall of shyness, but why did she feel that she needed protection? The search for the reason is a job for a psychiatrist and the woman could be helped if she is willing to co-

an abnormal amount of anxiety about our relations with others. It is my guess that this woman did not feel inwardly wanted and loved as a child. When a child feels insecure in the love of its parents it often is obsessed with a feeling of danger against which it feels absolutely helpless. The helplessness generates anger and fear which it cannot express without incurring punishment. Therefore such feelings must be pushed back and forgotten. A child may love and need its parents and still feel resentment against them for frustrating its ambitious strivings, its instinctual drives or its legitimate wishes. When excessively shy people are able to probe into their past and give these unhealthy repressions a thorough airing, it is the first step in the change of attitude which leads to a cure.
