A dressing for tomatoes, equal to
none, is made by merely sieving
well ripened avocado and seasoning
with lemon juice and garlic salt
This will reduce the pressure on
hard-to-get salad oil, ordinarily used
for dressings.

A tomato treat that’s hard to beat
is this one in which cottage cheese
is used for stuffing. Frilly sand
wiches can be made by spreading
thinly sliced bread with mayon
naise, seasoning the lettuce and roll
ing up the bread.
Lunch is often one of the most
neglected meals of the day because
the whole family is not at home to
eat it. Then, too, many homemak
ers feel they just don’t want to both
er fixing something palatable and
attractive.
But, let’s look at it this way.
Lunch, according to nutritionists,
should contain at
least one-third to
one-half the day’s
calories, and the
proper balance of
proteins, carbo
hydrates, vita
mins and miner
als. This doesn’t mean that you
have to spend a lot of time prepar
ing this noon-day snack, because,
chances are, there are plenty of
things in the refrigerator, ready to
be made into satisfying, nourishing
lunches.
Now that food rationing has eased,
it might be a good idea to invite
friends in for a quick lunch; or, bet
ter still, have a plan whereby you
invite four to six people over for
noon-time, and then have everyone
take turns having each other to
luncheon. It’s a neighborly way,
and you will be sure to get into bet
ter luncheon habits this way.
Here is a colorful salad plate that
makes a quick and easy lunch. It
looks pretty, too, on gay, informal
plates.
Stuffed Tomato Salad Plate.
(Serves 6)
6 large tomatoes
% pound cottage cheese
1 cup chopped cucumber
3.tablespoons real mayonnaise
Parsley
Scallions
Lettuce rolls
Section tomatoes to within V* inch
from bottom. Mix cottage cheese,
cucumber and real mayonnaise. Fill
tomatoes. Serve with scallions and
lettuce rolls. The rolls are made
by spreading thinly sliced white
bread with mayonnaise and then
placing a lettuce leaf on each slice.
Sprinkle this with salt and pepper.
Roll up and fasten with a toothpick.
Occasionally we all have some
leftover rice in the refrigerator, pos
- sibly after a chop
suey dinner the
night before.
What about
crispy, golden
brown rice cakes
IT for lunch, served
I with apricot jam
- or marmalade,
and some spinach made delectable
with a cream sauce. There you
have nourishment plus in addition
to a colorful and contrasting menu.
Rice Cakes.

1 beaten egg
2 tablespoons flour

Hints for the Home: Sugar
bags make good dishcloths. Cut,
hem and launder before using.
A dishwashing apron is easy to
make out of oil cloth. Cut to pat
tern, bind the edges and you will
have a water-resistant apron.
Old pillow cases are excellent
for protecting the tops of clothes
while they hang in the closet. Use
this tip for putting away out-of
season clothes.
Odd bits of linoleum make nice
covers for kitchen or laundry ta
ble and may even be used as
shelf covering.
Old socks are excellent for ap
plying wax to furniture; they
may be used for cleaning silver
ware, too.
If you are crowded for space,
build a blanket bin across the
narrow end of a hall, underneath
the windows. This is good to use
in storing clothes, too. Fold the
latter in clean tissue paper to
prevent wrinkling.

^BABYb
By Lillian B. Storm*
Toddlers and young children still
need careful selection of the food
l.liey eat. During infancy their
food is supervised by the doctor
but by the time the baby is given
his meals at the family table, we
are apt to forget he is still a baby
and that much of the family food
is not suitable. He is growing rap
idly and needs the foods which
will supply his requirements.
There seems to be an irresistible
urge to give a baby bites or tastes
from the family meaL 'We enjoy
the surprise he shows when he first
tastes something different. Father
may want to think his boy is al
most a big boy and can have steak
and pie. It may be offered to him
as a reward for drinking his milk
or eating his egg or carrots. You
reward him with something which
is not suitable, which he doesn’t
need or want and thus make the
undesirable food something special
and more to be desired than his
1 regular food. We have the same
I attitude about giving candy to a
child, offering it as something
' more choice and to be coveted, su
! perior to his regular food. #
| The canned chopped foods for
; toddlers will solve the problem of
j what your young child can have
for his meal when the family food
is fried or highly seasoned or the
dessert is pastry or a rich pud
ding.
If children are adequately nour
ished and have plenty of fruits
and simple custards, gelatine and
other desserts they will not crave
sweets. Care and thought are
worthwhile all during the growing
years, in order to insure healthy
children with good, sound teeth.

If your electric outlets look like this, it’s proof positive that your
home is suffering from a severe case of inadequate wiring. And
the situation will get worse—because more and more electrical
servants will become a very necessary part of the homes built
and modernized today.
Wire wisely for that future, so that all the electrical appliances
you want can be successfully and safely used. Whether you build
or remodel, plan for adequate entrance service, enough circuits,
and plenty of switches and convenience outlets—reap the full
benefits of all the electrical servants soon to be available. Resolve
now to rid your home of bothersome, unsatisfactory, dangerous
