The Frontier Woman . . . Jakes Coaxing, Careful Maneuvering to See That 3 Children Eat Fresh Vegetables, Etc. By BLANCHE SPANN PEASE a This is tne season of the year when lots of potato salad is served. Potato salad is fine and I like to throw in this and that in the seasonal line such as a little chopped celery, chopped green pepper, sliced radishes, etc. If made a few hours in advance of serving and ket in refrigerator it has more flavor. If you don’t have any of the above seasonings try using some celery salt. It gives added flavor. I often use sandwich filling (may onnaise type, instead of the usual salad dressing when making po tato salad or stuffing eggs. Both give added color and flavor. There is just one thing about potato salad: It should be kept under re frigeration for it can be about as lethal as anything you can eat if left in heat, particularly in humid weather. Don’t eat potato salad that has stood for hours in hot weather if you don’t keep it refrigerated I always use my little egg she er gadget when I make potato salad and slice one extra hard boiled egg and use part of it as a garnish for the top of the salad. If served in lettuce cups it’s very pretty and appetizing. Give it a sprinkle of paprika sometimes for an extra bit of color. I bought a clothes dampening bag the other day. It’s very sim ple and easy to use. You simply drop the clothes to be ironed into the bag a piece at a time and do not roll or fold. Pour about half a cup of water around the top of each 6 inch layer as you put the clothes in the bag. Then press the clothes into the bag, squeeze out the air and close the zipper. In about two hours of overnight clothes are evenly dampened and ready to iron. If it’s real hot, slip them in the refrigerator over night. —tfw— 'Working Gal' Wins Subscription— Dear Blanche, My, this time of year surely keeps one scurrying from one task to another—especially us working girls who have a family. The morning starts at 6 o’clock for me and each day has it’s rou tine tasks with the washing to hang out on Monday, ironing on Tuesday, mending on Wednesday, Thursday to catch up on odds and ends, and Friday for cleaning. Sandwiches in between tasks are three little sleepy heads to help dress whenever they awaken, to coax into eating some breakfast, and to talk over what might be expected of them while “mom mie is at work. fhai time it's practically 8:30 and time to be a-goin'. So d s of to work with one, two, three pecks on three little cheeks wih promise to be back for dinner. Then comes noon time which is even more of a whirl. It should not be with dinner laid out on the table by grandma’s capable hands. But it’s either “see my ouchy where I fell 9ft the porch,” or “sister colored in my color book,” or “help me carry my dolls m, or see where Peanuts (the dog) chewed on my bedroom slipper.” (And here I thought that night clothes had been shed earlier in the day and put away safely). Somehow we manage to get hands washed and sit down to eat. It takes coaxing and careful man uvering to see that everyone eats their share of vegetables so good right out of the garden, and drinks that glass of milk. The meal is hardly finished when the youngest starts nodding and we know it’s time for dreamland again. So I leave again amid promises of each little one to rest awhile, maybe even nap, not to play out in the hot sun too much, stay out of the strawberry patch, etc. The afternoon over a return brings such welcome phrases as these: “What did you bring me this time?” or “Do you have any pennies for our piggy bank?” and “I took a nap but Randy didn’t.” Ah, me, it’s a busy day for me, but you can imagine how much busier it must be for grandma as she watches and cares for the home front all day long. Who would you vote for? ‘WORKING GAL’ SAYS SANDHILL SAL Thrift sweetens a man’s life particularly when it is practiced by his wife. Sometimes when youngsters act like grownups they are called juvenile delinquents. Don’t give anybody a piece of your mind. Sooner or later you are going to need it all yourself.
