I didn’t make my purchase in that store. No, I went across the street to a plea sant ‘ Well, hello there, Mrs. Brown, how’s the family today? That’s where I made my pur chase. Some how I feel if my children aren’t welcome in a store (when they’re not making l a disturbance), I just don’t like I to be there, either. You see. lady, we all like each other a gTeal deal and we all think every one of us is pretty special. My prayer is that I may be the kind ol mom that will make their childhood happy. Why feel sorry for me? I don’t feel sorry for myself. I’m I a very lucky mom and here’s why: I’ve been blessed with some very precious darlings to make life worthwhile and to keep me busy, happy and from just be ing plain bored.

So far I have written 2 and thought I'd try the third one to you. I have secretly enjoyed your column :n The Frontier for over a year now, also letters and recipes sent in by other readers. Have been busy housecleaning, gardening, along with cooking meals , It seems so hard to sat isfy the hunger these days, but now that the vegetables are coming on in the gulden this job of planning meals will be easier. When you oaice an angel food cake, how do you ui-e up the yolks? I have a cookie recipe, Fake and a mayonnaise recipe I use. I am including the mayon naise recipe 1* anyone wants the cookie or cake recipe, may be I can send it in another time MAIUNNAnli Yolks of 12 eggs, 2 table spoons !»' r or cornstarch, 1V» cups o* sugar, * 'msjw- dry mustard 1 pint vinegar diluted with V4 cuu o! water, 1 table spoon if salt.

When wanted to use, whip the amount of cream needed and fold in e .oough dressing as desired Wish some one would send in new ways of using green beans. I like the poeip "What are little boys made of” sent in by a busy mother. I have 3 grandsons that live up to it very much, espe cially the perpetual motion part. I have a box I keep toys in, so my grandchildren or any oth er child that comes to our house car. play with them. Children are always looking for some Uiing to play with Remember to put some toys that tiny chil- , dren can use, too.

Send your let ters to Mrs. Blanche Pease, The Frontier Woman, At tireon. SANDHILL SAL When I’m discouraged with my figger, it encourages me to look at some one bigger. I can’t see a single reason for a flea, but I reckon I would if I were he. It is astonishing the ends to which some people will go to get even with somebody.
