I The Frontier Woman — Delicate ‘Line Arrangements’ of Flowers ^ Are Entirely Out of Place in Church i I By BLANCHE SPANN PEASE This is the time of year when a combination of fruit plate tastes extra special. Try it today and 6ee if the family isn’t enthusiastic with this cool idea. You will need 1 sweet skinned apple, unpeeled, 1 orange, 1 ripe banana, salad greens, 2 or 3 v berries. JCut unpeeled apple length wise into 4 thin wedges. Peel orange, and slice crosswise. Cut 2 slices in to halves. Peel and slice ba « nana. Arrange Spann 3 rows of fruit 0 on a salad ^ease plate, using ba nana slices for outside rows. For one end of the center row, use the apple wedges, placed so they overlap with the red skin toward the outside. For the other end, | use the 4 half slices of orange, placed so they overlap with the curved side of each piece toward the outside. Garnish the center with greens and berries. Serve with a sweet or tart dressing. One large individual serving. It’s very pretty. By the way, when you use ba nanas in salads, you may want to flute them, because they look so much prettier. To flute, run the prongs of a fork lengthwise down a peeled banana, then slice cross ly wise for dainty crinkly - edged 7 rounds. If you want to keep the ba nana slices from turning dark, dip the slices into or sprinkle them with canned pineapple juice, fresh or canned gTape ; fruit juice, orange or lemon juice. If you are going to use mashed banana in a recipe, slice bananas into a bowl and beat with a fork, or slice bananas into a bowl, beat with rotary beater, or break ba nanas into chunks and beat with an electric mixer. —tfw— Flowers for the Church— Our 3-months’ subscription for this week goes to Mabel Guild, of Oakdale: Dear Blanche and Readers: Why do we take flowers to the church? What colors are best to use? What containers are most appropriate? What “holders” will help our bouquets stand up? What about baskets? These 5 questions were discuss ed at club recently and a lady of authority on flower arrangements helped us out a good deal in her experience and knowledge in flowers for the church and else where. In speaking of a member who brings a “jumbled up” bouquet to church that is far from the “standardized flower arrange ment” she said, “Remember that those flowers were brought there in good faith, as an act of wor ship. Do not scorn the humblest offering just because it does not happen to exemplify your idea of art, but strive to provide contain ers that will make the arrange ment simple and uniform.” She said the ladies aid of her church invested in jars, pew-end vases, baskets, urns or vases. This special equipment on children’s day and at the weddings and re ceptions makes things a lot eas ier. Two large heavy vases in white or cream are ideal. Inside have some device for holding flowers erect without crowding. A crush ed ball of mesh wire fencing is good if packed solidly so that it will not tip. Even better is a bun dle of 4- or 5-inch tall sections of %-inch lead pipe, soldered to gether to fit vase at the base. This will hold erect the big branches of apple blossoms or autumn leaves that are so effec tive. As for colors, most churches are dimly lighted, so avoid blues, purples and dark greens. White, yellow, red, pink and orange are colors that will carry best. Use masses of one color iarge enough to fill the eye. The delicate “line arrangements” of our flower shows are entirely out of place in a church. Keep bouquets heavy at the base. Top heavy arrangements are nerve wracking, and a church is the wrong place to have a bas ket of flowers upset. Baskets with handles are frowned upon be cause it is hard to heep the han dle from seeming to “cut across” the bouquet. Personally, I could forgive that fault because of the advantage that the handle gives in ease of moving them to and from the church. Besides the 2 large containers, it is well to have a pair of match ed low vases with good large “pin holders” in which to place short stemmed flowers that you must sometimes use. Carefully balanc ed, they will look well, though not showy. A bunch of greenery with only a few blossoms in each will be much better than a bare platform. MABEL GUILD SANDHILL SAL One of the quickest ways to end the war would be for Mar garet Truman to enlist in the WAC and be sent to Korea. Tru man would soon find a good rea son for calling his “baby” home and begin to realize what a use less war has cost others — now that another year of indecision has gone by. Mr. Truman never forgets a grudge and spends more time plotting how to pay one back than how to win the war.
