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.

'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.
The most popular chorus at our
house is the one I hear every day,
‘’When do we eat,”
