The Frontier Woman—
Cleanliness Will Insure Coffee Gcdness;
Why Does Other’s Cooking Taste Better?
By BLANCHE SPANN PEASE
Sister, can you make good
coffee? Most good homemakers
can make coffee suited tj their
family's taste, and, of course,
various families do have their
own preferences.
If you do not make good cof
fee, perhaps you do not use
enough coffee. Basic require
ments for coffee making are us
ually a heaping tablespoon of
coffee to each standard measur
ing cup of freshly drawn water.
Iced coffee should be double this
strength. ,
Make coffee fresh every meal
for really good coffee. Reheated
coffee just isn’t as good as fresh
ly made coffee, so make the cof
fee just before serving and keep
it hot.
Keep your coffee-making
equipment clean. Cleanliness in
sures the goodness of the coffee,
so wash your equipment often
with fresh clean water. Don’t
wash it last thing in your dish
water. Keep a brush for use for
the coffee pot exclusively.
Use the correct grind for the
kind of coffee maker you use.
evaporate after purchase, so
keep it covered closely.
And, if the family is smallish
and doesn’t drink too much of
it, buy only a pound at a time,
the 2 - pound size will lose its
fresh scent before it is all used.
To avoid the necessity of hav
ing to make a special double
strength blend of coffee for iced
coffee service, try making iced
coffee cubes. Make the coffee
as usual, using a heaping meas
uring tablespoon of coffee to each
measuring cup of water. Fill
cube trays of refrigerator with
coffee while still fresh and freeze
«s usual. When serving iced cof
fee, place the frozen cubes in a
taU glass and fill with hot, reg
ular strength offee from your
vm or glass coffee-maker.

Why, Why. Why?
“Curious” wins our 3-months
subscription to The Frontier to
day.
Dear Blanche:
I surely felt sorry for the
■■■■■■■■' .. ...-■ ' ■ ■—..
lady who kemtoned over mures
coed walls and wondered so
many times what she finally
did. Guess I’ll tell her about
my experience.
I washed all the (muresco off
my bathroom and then kemton
ed. In a few months the kem
tone was peeling nearly os
badly as the muresco ever did.
So I attempted to remove the
kemtone and believe me that’s
some job. You can scrape and
wash off muresco but kemtone
is another matter. I put paint
remover on it and used a stiff
steel brush and bushels and
bushels of stiffer elbow grease
and managed to get off the
worst of it. Then I painted.
In about 6 months the paint
was chipping, too. And there
my story ends. We sold the
house and moved and me (old
tmeanie that I am) often won
ered what my successor did, but
I’ve never had the nerve to go
back and ask her. You can’t
tell, she might have demanded
a refund! From where I stand,
I think knocking down the plas
ter would be the best. Golly!
I wonder what that lady did.
Poor soul. How I sympathize
with her. I’m afraid she’ll have a
mess.
Wonder who invented mures -
co, anyway. He should get life
imprisonment, at least.
Here are some questions that
have always puzzled me. Do they
puzzle you, too?
Why do little boys love water
so imuch except when they have
to wash,
Why doesn’t’ anyone notice
your figure until youve put on
5 pounds?
Why do the things your hus
band thought so cute before mar
riage irritate him so afterwards?
Why doesn’t anyone notice
your figure until you’ve put on
you’ve had a flop?
Why is it company never
comes when you’re prepared but
wait until you’re in a mess?
Why do toddlers take so long
to learn the things you’re trying
to teach them and learn the
naughty things so quickly?
Why do children just love to
help with the dishes at the age
of 3 or 4 and simply despise it
when they’re really big enough

to help?
Why does the phone always
ring when you’re mixing bread
or just stepped down the cellar
or worse yet, taking a bath?
Why does something always
burn when you’re entertaining
special guests?
Why does a certain hairdo look
so glamorous in a picture and so
awful on yourself?
Why don’t we ever notice our
own faults as quickly as we do
others?
Why don’t cakes that look so
yummy in the magazines ever
turn out that way?
Why does some one else's
cooking taste so much better
than your own?
Why are actions so cute when
your children do thorn and so
naughty when it’s some one else’s
children?
Why do folks whose families
are grown always say, “Mine
never got by with that?” I won
der, don’t you?

These folks are enjoying something that’s being
pioneered by Buick.
It’s freedom from the blinding glare of bright
summer sunlight.
It’s freedom from hot laps—caused by the sun’s rays
beating down through the broad expanse of
windshield.
These freedoms trace to a new feature you may
have noticed in ’51 Buicks—a new kind of glass t
with a cool, soft, blue-green tint, in every glass area
of the car, front, side and back.
Buick engineers tell us that this "Buick first”
reduces glare 18% over conventional glass—cuts
sun heat as much as 45%—and Buick engineers are
very conservative fellows.
This glare-and-heat-reducing Easy-eye glass is
factory-installed at moderate extra charge. It gives
you a built-in transparent "sun visor” right in the
windshield—and it also dulls the dazzle of oncom
ing headlights at night.
its place with such exclusives as the valve-in-head
Fireball Engine—coil springs on all four wheels—
the firm power linkage of torque-tube drive—and
the magic of Dynaflow.*
As we’ve also said—rather modestly—"Smart buy’s *
Buick.”
Come in soon and find out what an understatement
that really is.
Equipment, accessories, trim and models are subject to change without notice. #Standard
