Solving the Problem of the Children's
Home Lunches.
NEXT to the problem of giving the
child a lunch box filled with the
things that are wholesome and what it
likes to eat Is the problem of what to
prepare for the children when they
come home in the middle of the day.
It is a good plan when cooking
breakfast cereals to prepare more than
enough for that meal. The leftover
cereal can then be used at lunch time
either in soups, puddings, pancakes or
muffins. These foods are simple
enough for children, and yet they con
tain ample nourishment for the mid
day meal. Here are some suggested
recipes for using leftover cereals in
preparing the main luncheon dish:
Hominy Souffle One cupful of
cooked hominy, one cupful of grated
cheese, two eggs, q'uarter cupful of hot
milk, salt, paprika, rind of naif a lem
on, grated.
Beat cold hominy with a fork until
smooth. Add cheese and seasonings.
Meat yolks of eggs until thick, and
light and stir into the mixture. The
fold in stiffly beaten egg whites, pou
into buttered baking dish and bake for
about 20 minutes in a hot oven.
Farina Pancakes One cupful of
cooked farina, one cupful of swee
milk, one scant teaspoonful of salt, one
cupful of flour, one egg, two teaspoon
fuls of baking powder, half teaspoonful
of salt.
Beat farina and egg together until
smooth and light Then stir I nth
milk. Sift salt and flour together an
add to farina mixture. Last stir 1
baking powder and beat well. These
cakes are better than those made
raw flour.
Ilice Muffins Half cupful of cooked
rice, two cupfuls of flour, three-fourth
cupful of sweet milk, four tablespoon
fuls of melted butter, four tablespoon
fuls of baking powder, three table
spoonfuls of sugar, one egg.
Sift together sugar, salt, baking pow
dcr and flour. Beat egg until light.
add rice and milk, then the dry materi
als. Beat butter In last. Pour into
greased muffin pans and bake in a hot
oven for 25 minutes.
Oatmeal Soup Three tablespoonfuls
of butter, one medium-sized onion, half
cupful of oatmeal, one teaspoonful of
salt, one quart of water, one pint of
milk.
1'eel and chop onion fine. Place in
double boiler with butter and cook 15
minutes. Then add oatmeal and boiling
water. Cook directly over flame for 10
minutes. Then place in double boiler
and cook for about two and one-half
or three hours. Hub through colander
and add milk and salt.
Peanut butter, something children
usually like, can be used as the basis
for several excellent luncheon dishes.
i'eanut butter muffins with a glass of
milk are a complete meal, containing as
they do the protein, starch and the
sweet flavor which children demand as
well.
Peanut butter' can also bo combined
with milk and seasoning into a de
licious peanut soup. Also melted pea
nut butter added to the plain cereals,
such as oatmeal, rice.- farina and corn-
meal, adds just the flavor which will
make the children like the cereal that
they might otherwise reject.

HALF, SAYS W. K. SEWELL.
Aaalstaat Food Administrator for Ore-
fa Telia of Need of Economy Until
Ifew Crop Arrive..
W. K. Newell, assistant Federal Food
Administrator for Oregon, told yester
day of the conditions which must force
the husbanding of wheat supplies upon
the people of the United States. Dur
ing the next five and one-half months
citizens of this country must cut con
sumption of wheat to one-half what
it has normally been, he declared. Mr.
Newell has just returned from Wash
ington, D. C.
'It was decided at the conferences
w,lth Mr. Hoover," Mr. Newell said,
mat ail tne caras are 10 De laia on
the table in shore, that the people of
the country are to be informed plainly
of the food situation.
'With regard to wheat, we know
very - definitely what confronts us.
After setting aside what must abso-
utely be sent to the allies and making
allowance for seeding requirements, we
ill have for consumption just 110,-
000,000 bushels. - This must feed us
from the present time until the new
crop of the Southwest states comes on
the market in August.
Now we normally consume 42,000,000
bushels of wheat a month. At that
rate the supply would run us less
than three months. If we can spread
the supply over the five and one-half
months, which is the aim of the Food
Administration, we will have a little
ess -than half our accustomed wheat
ration." -
Mr. Newell also gave warning that
regulations which again restrict the
use of meats' to smaller consumption
may be expected most any time.

REGOX children are doing big work
for Uncle Sam in the thrift stamp
and war savings stamp campaign. They
are earning money and investing It in
"baby bonds," rather than in candy,
gum and the like, without which they
are getting along nicely. Moreover,
they find that in making some little
self-sacrifices they are adding something-to
their lives that waa not there
before. A happy feeling! Glad feel
ing, as Pollyanna might put it.
That is what the Government wants
to do. The Government wants to make
thrift second nature to all American
citizens. Just as extravagance and
waste has been second nature to them
for three or four generations.
Following are some of the "Jobs" un
dertaken by Oregon children to earn
thrift stamp money, according to re
ports received at the office of the state
director:

The Columbian has fin
ished what Ben Franklin
started for YOU!
It was Benja
min's idea to put
near-vision and
far-vision lenses
in the same frame.
But his simple
method left a seam
across the center
that was a nui
sance in more
ways than one.
So the Colum

his work for you, the modern wearer. KRYPTOK

and smooth as any lenses ever made ! Yet the near
and far vision they give is perfect.
Come in and have us show you how KRYPTOKS
do their work!
