Winter’s Sewing Unfinished
By BLANCHE SPANN PEASE
Housecleaning time has rolled
around again. But cleaning the
refrigerator interior has to be
done every few days. Don’t use
soap and water but dissolve
three tablespoons of baking soda
in a quart of warm water and
this makes a cleaning and de
odorizing method of cleaning the
refrigerator after defrosting.
When you scorch food, fill the
kettle with hot water and add
soda to it and let it soak a while.
To go back to tne discussion of
refrigerators, defrost your re
frigerator frequently. The long
er you let it go, the harder the
motor on the refrigerator has to
work and the less satisfactory is
the refrigerator. Your refrigerat
cr works much more efficiently
if you defrost it every few days.
Do you use a cellulose sponge
in your home? At our place, we
have several. I use one for wash
ing dishes and never have to
launder dishcloths any more.
The sponges can be easily steril
ized with boiling water. They get
into crevices better than a dish
cloth and are also fine for ap
plying paste silver polish to sil
verware, when that task has to
be done. ___

I much prefer a sponge to a
cloth when washing walls,
woodwork or anything of that
sort. It does a better job and
getting water out of it is as
simple as a squeeze.
Using two, one in my washing
solution, and one in a rinsing so
lution simplifies and hastens
cleaning considerably.
Do you have a sponge mop for
your kitchen linoleums and for
other floors that must be mop
ped? Mine is one that requires
no stooping and which wrings
by a simple patented process
which doesn’t require putting
my hands in the water. I have
used the same cellulose sponge
that came with it for two years
now, so if properly taken care
of, they last a long time. I have
an extra which I use to put m
the mop to wipe the kitchen
walls.

Dear Friends: .
What is your latest project?
Or do you have more than one
started like I do? Sewing, cookies,
cacti, new recipes, and cub
scouts?
1 am in the midst of spring
sewing—or pardon me—some is
to finish winter sewing such as
flannel pajamas. I must sew
some for summer before I put
the pattern away. Of course, 111
have to allow for the length of
those growing legs.
This reminds me of an incident
which happened just before
Christmas. I was cutting off
Cnervl’s floor-length dress. When
2?it on I said, “Just look
how those feet and some legs
s\ick out. Looking very serious
she said, “Of course! When you
made it for me, I was four and
now I’m five.” Scarcely three

day is so important to a child.
How many boys bake cookies?
My 10-year-old is trying his
hand at it now. He baked enough
for all in his room for valentines,
using my cookie press. We had
some for supper and they were
good. You wouldn’t think he’d
have a chance with so many
sisters, but the two older boys
baked cakes, pies and dough
nuts, too, so suppose he’ll be
graduating from cookies soon.
I have started a cacti collec
tion by exchanging with a
neighbor, I like them while
they are tiny, don't know what
I'll do with them when they
outgrow my narrow window
sills. Edith also gave me half
of her package of cacti seed.
Needless to say. I look every
day and don't know what I'm
looking for!
1 made a resolution to try
some new recipes. I tried one to
day for cake mix. It makes
enough for four cakes and is
really good. It calls for cake
flour and I’m going to try all
purpose flour next time.
In a large roasting pan I put:
Five cups sugar, eight cups
cake flour, four teaspoons salt,
V4 cup double acting baking
powder, two cups shortening.
These were mixed with an
electric mixer at medium speed
until of the consistencv of corn
meal. I put 3M> cups in each of
four one-quart jars, screwing the
lid on firmly. Put in cupboard.
When you want to make a
cake, put 3Vfe cups mix into a
bowl. Combine % cup milk and
IV2 teaspoons vanilla. Add half
of the liquid to cake mix, beat
two minutes at medium speed
(300 hand strokes). Add remain
ing liquid and two eggs. Beat
two minutes more. Bake at 375
F. about 25 minutes in two round
eight-inch layers.
I have been a cub scout den
mother for a year now and en
joy the meetings. Sometimes the
boys are extra noisy and then I
don’t wonder that bears hiber
nate.
Best wishes to everyone,
MRS. G. L. OBERMIRE

If you’re tired, don’t drive. Fa

Slow down for curves. Acci
