The Frontier Woman —
Reader Moves from Stuart-to-Bassett
to O’Neill Where She Meets Husband
* By BLANCHE SPANN PEASE
Hi there, all you nice people!
Most people like picnics, even
if in the backyard. That is the
time to feature the favorite
sandwiches of the family, and
lots of them.
Perhaps the boys will vote for
hambur g e r s
on buns, sizzl
ing hot. A
new way to
get extra on
ion flavor is
to add a little
grated onion
to the soften
ed butter or
margarine us
ed to spread
.. ’ on split ham
Blanche Spann burger buns.
Pease Make t h e
sandwich with hot hambur
ger seasoned with salt and pep
per, crisp lettuce, and a dash of
chili sauce or relish.
Teen-age girls may second
Miss America’s picnic choice —
peanut butter and jelly on en
riched white bread. Some like
peanut butter and mayonnaise
in their sandwiches almost as
well as peanut butter and jelly.
She likes to sprinkle a table
spoon of finely chopped celery
on the peanut butter to give the
sandwich crispness.
Some enjoy a super-duper
ham and cheese sandwich.
To make a sandwich like this
frizzle slices of cooked ham in

butter or margarine, adding one
and one-half teaspoons of drain
ed prepared horseradish to each
two tablespoons of butter or
margarine. Place the hot ham, a
slice of cheese and leaves of let
tuce between two slices of en
riched white bread.
Mrs. Eleanor Roosevelt says
her favorite picnic sandwich is
simply a "hot dog" with mus
tard on a roll. Photographers
snapped the King and Queen
of England munching this
American favorite at the
Roosevelt Hyde Park estate a
few years back.
These sandwiches probably
rank high among your family’s
favorites. Whatever the sand
wich you choose for your out
ings, you can be sure it fur
nishes good nutrition when
made with enriched bread. En
riched bread contains addition
al B-vitamins and iron, import
ant for good health and a gen
eral feeling of "it’s-good-to-be
alive.”
For those whose favorite pic
nic spot is the comfortable back
yard, here’s an extra special
sandwich. Cooked, ground meat,
well seasoned, makes a delicious
filling between layers of tender
delicious biscuit layers. Here’s
the recipe for these meat past
ies. We call them:
PICNICKERS
Two cups sifted enriched
flour, three teaspoons baking
powder, one teaspoon salt, Vt
cup shortening, 2-3 to 3-4 cup of
milk, one cup ground cooked
meat, cup chili sauce, one
teaspoon prepared mustard, two
tablespoons water. Sift together
flour, baking powder and salt.
Cut or rub in shortening. Add
milk to make a soft dough. Turn
out on lightly floured board and
knead gently one-half minute.
Roll dough out one-fourth inch
thick to a long narrow sheet, 12
by 16 inches. Cut 16 oblong
pieces, three by four inches,
with sharp knife. Mix together
i meat, chili sauce mustard, on
ion, and water. Place two table
spoons of the meat mixture on
each of the eight pieces of bis
cuit dough. Cover with remain
ing oblongs. Crimp edges to
gether like edges of pie crust.
Bake on ungreased baking sheet
in hot oven (450 degrees F.) 12
to 15 minutes. Serve hot. Makes
eight “picknickers.”

Dear Mrs. Pease:
I see by the paper you are
asking for letters so I will try
to write. I was born at O’Neill.
We come to visit in O’Neill quite
a lot as folks still live there. We
have a son who is 20-months-old
now. His name is Dever.
We just moved to Water
town, S. D., in March from
Yankton, so I am pretty busy
with housecleaning and all.
Don't think I will have a gar
den here as there is no place
for one. I am enclosing four
very good recipes. We surely
like them and hope you try
them. I know you will like
them, loo:
DELICIOUS SALAD

cup cubed cheese, one cup of
crushed pineapple, one pound of

Comes now the season of the
year when you wish that you
hadn't been such an enthusiastic
arm chair gardener.
“Well, I’ll tell you,” said the
little girl to her mother, as they
admired the gladiolia, “I’m just
glad for glads.”
Many folks are glad to sprinkle
a little more dirt on what they
hear—but reluctant to start
cleaning1 up their own back
yards.
add one package candied maras
chino cherries cut fine, and add
\ cup nut meats and one pack
age candied pineapple. Pineap
ple can be omitted as candy is
very good without. This makes
! a large batch.

use cake flour), >4 cup cocoa,
cup shortening, 1 *4 cups sugar,
two eggs, '4 cup sour milk or
buttermilk, one teaspoon soda,
one teaspoon vanilla, ^ cup of

Also a Winner —
Mas. H. L. C. also wins a
three-months’ subscription to
The Frontier.
Dear Frontier Ladies:
Today is one of those won
derful days that surprise you
once in a while by raining when
you didn’t want to work out
side or wash anyhow.
I was going to wash, instead
I slept late for a change. My
little girl even stayed asleep,
which is very unusual for her.
Besides being a good day for
sleeping, it’s a good day for
reading, mending or baking
something extra special, like:
COFFEE AND SPICE DROPS
Two eggs, two cups brown
sugar, one cup shortening; mix
well together then add Vi cup
cold coffee, mix well and add
3 Vi cups sifted flour, one tea
spoon soda, one teaspon salt, one
teaspoon nutmeg, one teaspoon
cinnamon. Chill at least one
hour, drop from teaspoon on to
greatsed baking sheet. Bake un
til set or just until when touch
ed with finger no imprint re
mains.
Fresh, hot cookies and cocoa
go with a rainy day like apples
and pop corn with a good book.
I enjoy Mrs. G. Obermire s
letters very much as I was
raised along that mail route
she talks about and knew all
the people she mentioned.
It soon will be seven years
since my family lived in that
section of Nebraska.
We moved after the war start
ed to Stuart, so my dad could
go to the army. From Stuart we
moved to Bassett and from there
back to good old Holt county—
O’Neill where I met my hus
band.
Now I have a family of my
own, one darling little girl, one
year-old.
I enjoy the recipes and let
ters from other ladies very much.
See you in The Frontier.
MRS. H. L. C.

Send Us a Letter —
We are still giving three
months’ subscriptions for the
two best letters used each week
and when we have plenty of let
ters and the space, we use a
third letter and mail out a
small prize for its use. We would
like to hear from you. If you
have been reading the Frontier
Woman each week, it is time
for you to do your share and to
send us a letter.
Send us some of your canning
recipts if you wish, but be sure
they will be seasonal for use in
late July and August. Any can
ning hints and helps will be
welcome. We like to have your
letters included other season
able recipes, too, but be sure to
check and double-check your
recipes to be sure you have them
copied correctly. Please state
! type of flour when a special
j type is needed, such as cake
flour. If the food is to be baked
be sure to give oven tempera
ture. If you know how many
the recipe serves, tell us that,
too.
We like original letters of all
types but we do not wish any
poetry of any kind, either orig
inal or copied for this depart
ment. Otherwise you are pretty
much on your own. Send your
letters to Mrs. Blanche Pease,

Donna Mae Fuhrer Wins Honor
As First Teen-Ager-of-Month
BY PAT BRENNAN
Hi teenagers! There sure has
been a lot of things going on
since school closed. Sometimes
you seem to get busier when
you’re not in school than when
you are. If you really want
Pai
Brennan
to do some
thing worth
while this
Summer
you could
give up a few
of those de
licious malts
and contrib
ute a few of
your precious
nickles and
dimes to the
St. A n t h
ony’s Hospit- j
a 1 building
fund.
St. Anthony’s hospital will
do a great deal of good for O’
Neill and the surrounding ter
ritory in the very near and not*
far-off future, so it is your hos
pital as well as anyone else’s.
It is the small things and
the intention behind them
that will count the most. This
hospital will be something
we can all be proud of.
Miss Nancy Beha was the so
loist at the first band concert
Saturday night. June 4. She
sang beautifully, but then she
always does. Bernadette Hynes
and Marde Birmingham are al
so scheduled to sing this Sum
mer.
Some more of those working
teenagers 1 found this week
M. McDonald store; Marie Gut
miller, at Ben Franklin’s; Dor
othy Donohoe, at the Nuway
Cafe; Shirley Brandenberg, at
Carmel Corner; Dwane Booth,
with the Booth Transfer; Wal
ly Shalhamer, at the Union Su
per Market; and Kathryn Judge
at the academy.
O’Neill has a new teen-ager
and although 1 did not get his
last name I will say, "Welcome
to O’Neill, Becker."
I just received the good news
that plans are being made for
another teen-age dance I'll in
form you of the date as soon
as I find out.
I certainly hope everything
is running along smoothly for
you and that most of you have
been keeping out of all the ac
cidents that have been happen
ing during the past month.
Yes, it’s too bad we have to
have accidents. Or do we?
Accidents among the teens
are caused mostly by careless
ness, on the part of the driver
or the one who distracts him
(or her).
Let’s drive cautiously, being
extra careful, so that there’ll
be no more teen age accidents
around here.
I may be old fashioned
but I still say lightning doe*
strike twice in the same
place, and that it could eas
ily happen to you when you
least expect it. All I have to
say is please be careful.
Phyllis Seger is an enter
prising worker for the World
Herald. She gets up every
morning at 6, and yet she
loves her work. (She must, to
get up that early.)
Janet Enright and Earl
Bauld were married on Satur
day, June 11, in Washington
State. Both Janet and Earl are
graduates of SMA June, 1948.
Good luck to both of you.
Lots of teen agers went to
the White Horse ranch show
on Sunday, June 5, and really
had themselves a time.
To Miss Dor.na Mae Fuh
r • r . of O'Neill,
we are priv.leged to have
you as one of us. You are
the most couragous teen-ager
we know and we hope you
have more than your share
of luck, happiness, success.
We have chosen you as the
teen-ager of the month.
There are no words to ex
press your good work and your
ambition to do things. Ted Ma
lone was so impresed with you
that he put you on a coast-to
coast broadcast. Yes, Donna
Mae we are most happy to
have you with us and to choose
you as our first teenager-of-the
-month.
We hope you will accept this
humble tribute. Good luck to
you, Donna Mae.
