- 'To Greet the New Year
EW YEAR’'S EVE is the time
N of good resolutions. This
coming year, we resolve, we
will do this and that which we
have hitherto neglected, and we
will be careful not to do a number
of things which we have always
known that we shouldn't but
somehow simply couldn’t resist.
It’s lots of fun at a New Year's
Eve party to play Good Resoclu
tions. This is done by distribut
ing slips of paper to every guest
present and getting them to write
down, without any signature, a
list of the things which they have
resolved to do and not to do dur
ing the coming year. Then the
hostess reads aloud the lists of
good resolutions, and the guests
try to guess who is the author of
each.
.. Th< resolutions come out in
faany fashion, and are most re
vealing. The guests who resolve
“to diet,” “not to flirt,” “not to,
smoke so much,” “to take more
exercise,” “to go to church more
regularly,” “to do some good read
ing,” “to save some money”’ are
generally the first to deny ve
hemently their authorship of any
such idea. But their blushes or
self-consciousness betray them, or
else the others’ knowledge of their
characters, and this game is good
for many a laugh.
A Good Resolution
One of the best resolutions you
can make at such a party, how
ever, especially lif you are the
hostess, is to serve a supper which

will appeal to your merry guests.
Here's a menu for eight which
has been tried and tested, and
voted a complete success:
Cream of Mushroom Soup
Toasted Whole Wheat Fingers
Lobster Cutlets
Creamed Peas in Timbale Cases
Sweet Pickled Pear Salad
Coffee Cocoanut Cream
Nuts Cojfee
Cream of Mushroom Soup:
Drain the mushrooms from an §-
ounce can, and put them through
a grinder. Cook in top part of
double boiler for five minutes with
one tablespoon water, one table
spoon lemon juice and two tea
spoons salt. Make a white sauce
of four tablespoons butter, four
tablespoons flour and three cups
milk. Add the mushrooms and
one cup cream, and keep hot in
double boiler.
Fish and Fruit
Lobster Cutlets: Make a thick
white sauce of two tablespoong
butter, four tablespoons flour, one
cup milk, one-half teaspoon salt
and one-eighth teaspoon pepper.
Add one egg yolk, one teaspoon
lemon juice and the minced con
tents of two cans of lobster, and
let stand over night or until quite
cold. Shape into cutlet or chop
shapes, dip in crumbs, then in
egg, and then in crumbs again,
and fry in deep fat. Insert a piece
of macaroni in the pointed ends
to represent a bone. Serve with
tartar sauce.
Barren Grounds
Tundra Is a word of Finnish origin,
and is pnow the recognized name of
that huge tract of land which lies
across Eurasia, north of the Arctic
circle, and is continued into North
I America as the “barren grounds.” I
WHEELER COUNTY EALE, ALAMO, GEORGIA
Sweet Pickled Pear Salad: Ar
range eight pickled pear halves
on individual lettuce nests. Gar
nish with one-hall cup whipped
heavy cream, one-half cup mayon
naise and one-half cup sweet
pickle syrup.
A Corking Dessert
Coffee Cocoanut Cream: Soak
three-fourths tablespoon gelatin in
four tablespoons cold water. Make
a custard of one egg yolk, one-half
cup brown sugar and three-fourths
cup hot strong coffee. Add one
tablespoon butter, pour over the
gelatin, and stir until dissolved.
Cool. When it begins to set, fold
in one stiffiy-beaten egg white,
one-half cup whipped heavy cream
and one can of moist cocoanut.
Serve very cold piled in glasses
with whipped cream on top.
After this supper you’ll find
that your guests are feeling
stronger, but that their good
resolutions have grown unaccount
ably weaker. That one about
dieting, for instance, may be a
little bit modified, and the girls
look so pretty -and the men so
handsome that a trifle of flirting
doesn’t seem so heinous a crime.
It's fun to play Good Resolutions
both before and after supper, and
to note the changes in them that
the good food and the merry time
have wrought. It's the last
chance to change them, you know,
before the bells begin ringing at
midnight, and your party wel
comes the New Year.*

The secret of this glorified beauty
business is out! And it's simplfcity it
self. They owe it all to canned pine

At least, that's what one gathers
from the girls who make up the eye
attraction of the musical comedy,
“Pake a Chance.” As the show began
its long road tour with the attendant
wrinkle making worries of rushing
from theater to train and sketchy rest
in sleeping cars, these girls developed
a “beauty diet” to maintain the radi
ant vitality of health which the foot
lights. demand. And topping the list
of ! “beauty aids” is Hawail’'s golden
pineapple !

blue-eyed one, third from the left in
the front row—explained. “And this
expert said inadequate dlets deny
many women the vitality they must
have to be really beautiful. She said
that radiant health is the foundation
of real beauty and daily eating of two
slices of canned pineapple or a cup of
the crushed or tidbits as a source of
those Vitamin things—A, B and C—and
five essential minerals will help.
Wasn’t it a break that she recom

And so the tired business man from

done with the aid of canned pineapple.

Here's a new idea for a Christmas
gift for dad. He says lots of men
get a tired, let-down feeling at the
office in mid-afternoon. That's what
we girls call “four-o’clock-itis,” and
we know that candy, because it pro
vides lots of energy, is a great “pick
. me-up” for it. You might call my
present a “Candy Humidor.” It's a
good-looking leather box | found on
my last shopping tour and I'm filling
it with hard candies. Dad can keep
it handy on his flesk to help himself
from, just like a cigarette box, and
when it’s empty it can be filled again.
I’ll bet that will be soon.
