By BLANCHE SPANN PEASE Hi there, all you friendly folk! March! — almost! I hope next week’s weather will be nice for those who have to move. Having lived in the same spot for 17 years, it has been a long time since 1 moved, but 1 have not for gotten ali the trials of mov ing day —and the days that follow—by any means. Some Blanche Spann day I hope 1 p-aco can move into F a new house. Meantime, our house may be old, battered and myself a little bent from living in it, but it is our own and paid for and even all of its drawbacks have almost become desirable from long as sociation. Easter is. approacning. it can’t have a new outfit, have your old one cleaned and press ed. Maybe you can brighten it up with some new accessories. A bright red blouse can do wonders for your old gray suit — and it will do things for a navy blue suit, too. One of the smartest col ors to go with a grey suit this spring is the various shades of lavender. Another shade for ac cessories that does things for grey is yellow. Any of these three shades will brighten up your black outfits, too. you know, but be sure they will go with other colors in your wardrobe before you buy them. It is poor judg ment to buy clothes that will not blend in with colors of oth er clothes in your wardrobe. Wheg buying a new suit re member that you are not buying it just for this season alone. A good suit should last you from two to five years and if you se lect a conservative cut, it will not go out of style in that length of time. Never buy a dress, a suit or outfit just for one season. Buy it for a longer length of time, pay a bit more and wear it longer, and you’ll be better dress ed in the long run. 2 Babies in a Year Keeps Mother 'Always Busy'— “Always Busy" win sone of our three - months’ subscriptions to day. The other goes to “Mrs. F.”, of Atkinson. Dear Blanche and Readers: Every week I resolve I must write that letter to The Frontier Woman. Before I know it, it’s Thursday again and no letter written. There have been some very good letters lately, 1 espe cially enjoy the ones written by busy mothers with little tots. That’s my dish at the present time. I used to think 1 was busy when I had just one or two. Now, with the last two babies in the same year on top of all the rest of the work, I just wonder what I did with my time before. Of course, there’s no needle work or rug making, just glad to get a little, necessary sewing done along \yith the usual patch ing. Still, I can’t say there’s ever a dull moment around here, as thfe yearling keeps things pietty much in a merry-go-round most of the time.

Atkinson Livestock Market Atkinson, Nebraska — Phone 5141 so many ways, still she needs attention, too, and the little brother does make a mess with her dolls and play things. Have found a few short cuts that might help some others. When taking otf the little folks socks, I like to pin them togeth er, not so much danger of getting lost in the machine. Can just throw them over the line. Like to do this with the boys’ anklets, too, when I don't run out of safe ty pins. I put my basket of clothes on the boys’ little wagon, easier on the back and quicker to pull a long the line than be lifting the basket. I have my clothespin bag on a hanger and keeD sliding it down the line ahead of me or, it it is too windy, just take out a couple handfuls and lay them in | the basket, easy to grab a pin as you reach for the clothes. Anyone planning on buying a new electric iron, I suggest buy ing a steam iron. That does away with your sprinkling of clothes, then if you don’t have time to do all the ironing, no worry about clothes mildewing. Hope no one else had the luck I did of using shellac on their wallpaper above the stove to keep the paper from grease spot ting and the hint said you could just wipe your paper clean. I thought the idea sounded splen did. Having part of a roll of pa per left, we tore off the spotted paper above the stowe and pa pered. Then I applied the clear shellac. But alas it just looked like one big grease spot for club the following week. Oh, it isn’t iust babies that make mother’s hair get gray! When you feel tired and all in, have you ever tried combing your hair vigorously? Somehow it gives you renewed energy and might add to one’s looks also. Time to get some dinner ready so just an idea for a quick but good salad. Using lime gelatin, add a can of white cherries cut in squares and serve on lettuce. "ALWAYS BUSY." —tfw— She Put Castoria in the Cake— Dear Blanche: You have been asking for let ters, so I’ll try and help you out again. Today is Ash Wednesday and we will start attending mid week Lenten services on w d nesday nights. I really believe more people should attend church during Lenten season and learn more about the Great Man who died for all our sins. This morning I was thinking of the men and women who did n’t have little children in the householul. We have three, ages 5, 3, and 1, and believe me there isn’t a dull moment from the time we get up till I tuck the last one in at night. Others don’t know what they are missing. For instance, awhile back I was busy stirring up a cake so we could go to a party and either my mind must have been on the children ox something else be causea as I reached for the van illa, I got the castoria instead and had a teaspoonful put in be fore I realized what I had used. Well, the cake turned out pretty good and we didn't go to the party. So we ale it and couldn't tell the difference. Anyway these little folks of ours are pretty nice and we wouldn’t trade places with any one, when they’re sick we try to make them well, and when they’re happy, we are happy too. During this Lenten season I have a recipe which I like to use. It’s very simple, just cook the right amount of macaroni that it takes for your family and while it’s cooking, I use a fourth of a pound of cream cheese and melt it in a pan on the stove. When melted I add a little milk and salt and pepper and pour over the macaroni. It’s good ser ved with mashed potatoes and a, green vegetable. “MRS. P." —tfw— Surprise Gift for This Reader— Today since we have quite a few letters on hand, we are mail ing out a small surprise gift for this letter, which though it did n’t win a subscription, did win a small prize. Dear Blanche: May I come in? I know the door won’t be wide open, it is 30 dreadful cold. But I will rap as I have come for a friendly chat. We are having our coldest weather right now. It has been 10 below zero quite a few nights and one night it was 15 below. Then it gets 10 a'bove during the day. I don’t like such cold weather. Who does? I have been busy the last few w ceks crocheting a few rag rugs. I would rather make rugs than patch overalls any time but I have patched lots of overalls too in my time. I also like to piece quilts. I did lots of canning fruits and vegetables. I will send along two of my favorite cookie rec'pes. PEANUT BUTTER COOKIES One cup shortening, 2 cups flour, 1 cup brown sugar, 2 tea spoons baking soda, 1 cup white sugar, 1 teaspoon vanilla, 2 eggs, 1 cup peanut buter.
