Food Has Played Important Role
- In George M. Cohan’s Success
Mr. Cohan cuts his favorite chocolate cake for members of his
cast at one of the after-matinee “sweet snack” parties.
Chocolate Cake Leads to
Tale of Near Tragedy
In Early Days
By Mabel Love
rail the stories which have been
written about George M. Cohan
were placed ?nd on end they would
probably reach from one end of
Broadway to the other.
He has, in the vernacular of the
newspaper world been "done" from
every angle, that is except one, and
that angle concerns a chocolate
cake.
Seated in his dressing room, Mr.
Cohan who recently returned to the
footlights in “Pigeons and People”,
a current Broadway success,
startled his interviewer by reaching
into a cabinet and withdrawing a
delicious looking cake, covered
with thick chocolate icing.
“A member of the cast made it
from one of Mrs. Cohan’s favorite
recipes” he said smiling. “It’s
great food and at one stage of my
life if I had only reached for some
thing like this —” and then came a
brand new story which revealed
that early in his career Cohan was
almost lost to the stage forever.
It came about very suddenly and
his. doctors were frankly puzzled
until finally one, versed in the ways
of the handsome young chap who
had danced and sung his way into
the heart of a nation, put a point
blank question to his patient.
"George” he said, "how much
have you been eating.” And then
came the solution.
“I can’t be bothered eating all
the time doc. There’s too much
® What to do About Left-Overs
By Jane Rogers
LEFT-OVER vegetables—the cup
of peas or half cup of carrots,
present a problem In kitchen econ
omy that often taxes the patience
of the most thrifty housewife.
Everyone hates to throw away,
good food, especially when there is
a chance that it might be converted
into some tasty dish and be made
to serve for another meal.
The problem is really not as com
plex, though, as it seems. Almost
any good cook book will offer a
wealth of suggestions in the form
of recipes calling for a cup of peas,
a few string beans, or some cooked
carrots that can be made into a de
licious casserole of vegetables,
tempting enough to form the main
dish for luncheon or an appetizing
vegetable combination for the eve
ning meal. Moulded vegetable
Ealads or soups are other possibil
ities for these left-overs.
There is one rule, however, that
should always be observed. The
original flavor must be restored
and accentuated. When small por
tions of cooked vegetables are
placed in the Ice box and kept
overnight, it is natural that much
of the original flavor will be iost
giving the reas or carrots a “flat”
taste.
"'his is easily overcome by using
work to be done around here. I just
sort of eat when I get the time
and when I don’t have the time,
well I just don’t eat that’s all.”
And so the doctor discovered that
the world had almost lost one of
her best loved sons because he was
literally starving to death.
“I took a terrible verbal beating
and learned a lot about food,” said
Cohan. "I never knew before that
harmful unregulated dieting could
lead to tuberculosis and since then
1 have been a foe of any dietary
program that calls for eliminating
the necessary foods.”
Cohan knows the value of a
“sweet snack” as an energizer and
on matinee days a repast is always
served behind the scenes. Qne day
it will be tea and cookies, another
time milk and chocolate cake, but
always something which includes a
generous allotment of sugar, rec
ognized by science as nature’s
greatest energy food.
That was the reason for the choc
olate cake and with the gracious
permission of Mrs. Cohan, you
may try It yourself.

one knows the functions of salt and

way toward-blending the different
flavors and restoring their natural
sweetness.
Continental chefs have long rec
ognized the value of sugar as a
third seasoning lu the preparation
of fresh or canned vegetables—a
secret which they kept for many
years and which perhaps explains
why the dishes of many of our fa
