SERVING STRAWBERRIES.
In many of our homes, strawber
ries are being served at least once
and sometimes twice almost every
day now. Most families have their pet
way of serving this fruit, but a few
suggestions on preparing and serv
ing the berries might be helpful at
this time.
One of the first things to consider
is how to wash the berries to avoid
injuring them. It is not wise to ’et
the water from the faucet play over
them, as they are too tender to stand
such treatment. Instead, put them
into a bowl of water and then lift
them out of the water with the fin
gers somewhat apart, to act as a
strainer.
After the berries are washed/ the
sand and soil will settle to the bot
tom of the container. For that rea
son, don’t pour the water off the
berries. Unless they are quite dirty,
two rinses are usually sufficient.
Occasionally particles of dirt lodg
ed under the cap are more difficult
to remove, but it is better to rinse
the berries an extra time than to
remove the caps before washing.
Above all things, do not let the ber
ries stand' in the water, or they will
lose their color and flavor.
There are various ways to serve
strawberries. For breakfast, there
may be a ring of freshly washed, un
capped berries around a little cone
of powdered sugar, or they may be
served with the morning dish of
cereal.
At lunch, strawberries with banan
as or fresh pineapple may be served
as a fruit salad. They are used, too,
in desserts with gelatins, ice creams,
ices, Bavarian cream, custard, or
folded into whipped cream, or sweet
ened and used for a cake sauce.
The sauce to be used with cakes
and pies is made from the small, cook
ed berries. This is sweetened, strain
ed through a cheese cloth, and thick
ened with corn starch. Flour is not
used to thicken the sauce because it
would make the mixture cloudy. But
ter is added to give a glazed, bril
liant appearance.
Fresh strawberry pie, tarts, and
strawberry shortcake are always fa
vorites. Then, too, there is strawber
ry chiffon pie, and the preserves and
jam made from the season’s surplus
berries.
In making strawberry jam, the
smaller berries are used, and the
larger ones are saved for preserves.
Both of these ways of preparing sur
plus berries are widely used over the
state.
Strawberry Preserves.
3 level quarts berries
9 cups sugar
1 cup water
Wash and hull strawberries before
measuring. Put sugar and water into
a large preserving kettle, stir and
boil until sugar is well dissolved.
(This amount of sugar and water
gives a very heavy syrup.) Oook syr
up as thick as desired, add strawber
ries and boil 15 minutesr (rolling boil)
Start timing when rolling boil be
gins. Do not stir but shake kettle
and s/kim. Pour into flat pans or
trays and shake occasionally until
cold. The shaking is the secret of
success: it causes the berries to ab
sorb the syrup and remain plump
and whole. Put into jars when cold.
Never cook more than three quarts
at a time, and it is best to shake all
while cooking and occasionally while
cooking. This recipe, if followed
closely, will produce whole berries
suspended in thick syrup and having
a. bright red color. Store in dark
place to keep berries from fading.
The Original Petticoats
Petticoats were originally what
their name implies—little coats
worn both by men and women for
warmth of the upper part of, the
body. But fashion, which is apt to
turn everything topsy-turvy, soon
transformed them into exclusively
feminine earb.

Did you know that Shakespeare
was red-headed, that Napoleon had
reddish chestnut hair, and that four
of our presidents had carrot tops?
They are George Washington, Thomas
Jefferson, Andrew Jackson and Cal
vin Coolidge. As for the women,
Cleopatra was red-haired. England’s
Queen Elizabeth had flaming tresses,
and so did Sarah Bernhardt, Marie
Dressier, Minnie Maddern Fiske, and
scores of other actresses, not forget
ting our present day Myma Loy,
Clara Bow, Ginger Rogers, Kathernie
Hepburn and Janet Gaynor.
Redheads have strong personalities,
and are seldom mediocre. They are
impulsive, aggressive, temperamen
tal and proud. They hit either the
very high or the very low spots, for
they are courageous fighters with
high-speed engines. And they photo
graph so well that technicolor films
use them whenever possible. Add this
count in their favor to their native
pep, glamor and personality, and the
redheads would seem to be a favor

one?

When you are facing difficulties
and don’t know which way to turn,
what do you do? Do you keep it all
bottled up inside, or do you go to
someone whom you feel will under
stand and sympathize, someone who
can help you? Probably you do the
latter, for most people feel keenly
the need to talk things over when
they are in a predicament. But to
whom do you go? A clergyman, or
a psychologist?
This is where the church today is
failing. This is the reason why we
are losing hundreds, yes thousands,
to the cults and isms that flourish in
our land today. They know the most
vital need of man is concrete help in
the world as it is today. So they
have trained psychologists, psychia
trists, who can feret out causes, rea
sons, give definite usable advice, and
give the man the sort of help he
needs and that the church should be
giving him. It is essential to pray
about difficulties, but we humans
need something more concrete than
that alone. So what are we as church
members going to do about it? Each
individual can help solve the prob
lem—by being a committee of one to
see that his church has a clinic for
help and advice, especially for the
young people.

Did you ever have a plant from a
greenhouse with leaves that were
pale green or a sickly yellow? If so,
that plant probably did not last very
long—because it was not properly
conditioned. This was explained to me
last week while visiting a florist
friend in Marietta. The plants are
j kept in the dark, where it is warm,
(until ready to bloom. Then they are
brought out to the light gradually,
and given air and sunshine by slow,
systematic degrees, until the leaves
become a healthy, sturdy green. But
sometimes these plants are sold be
fore they have been properly tough
ened, or they were allowed to bloom
before conditioned enough for the
leaves to “green up” and the blos
soms to have any stamina. Easter
being late this year, this florist is
having a time keeping her lilies-of
the-valley and Easter lilies from
blooming too soon. But experience

Miss Edith Foster. Her book, Beside

Atlanta Writers’ club at the March
dinner meeting. Below is one of the
poems she read at that time:
April’s Tears.
God, I took a bit of salt from Ap
ril’s tears
Against the coming of some unsea
soned pain;
Excessive joy like this can mitigate
my fears,
But, God, don’t send such ecstasy
again.
And yet no single grief can ever
blind my eyes
Completely to the purpose of this
earth-delight;
Then lay Thy mystic touch across
the skies:
My cup of silver mist will quench the
night.
