" She is doing for each the hundred and one little odd pieces of sewing and mending which are apt to be put off, from time to time in a busy life. Waists which needed a little refurbish ing as - to collars . and girdles and so were laid aside for leisure time, stocks which had lost a fancy button or had ripped here and there, . skirts which needed rebuilding, -and in fact the many little .touches which . mean neatness, and which take time to ac complish, she has been quietly at work on for weeks.

Etta Grimes, Anna Fink. .Ruth Benton,' Lin nette Lewis, Marjorie Moore; solo, Orma Burdlck ; reading Mrs. Marian The doctrine of "substitutes" being promulgated by the food administration might be of less Importance If tt were the rule to find Intelligent cookery in the United States. There would be plenty of every food, both for ourselves and our proteges-without wheatless and meatless days. If those materials at our disposal were temperately . utilised. But; unfortunately, American cookery is prodigal of fats and other valuable foods ; . many tons of valuable foods have been wasted as garbage hereto fore. Immigrants from Europe are as tounded at our high-handed waste of foods. They have been used to making the cooking of every meal a little piece of strategy ; how to get the most energy and food value out of materials at their disposal. When they once land In America we comment on their frugality which usually is not an enduring fru gality when they find their natural aver sion to waste being critically observed. For your guidance in cooking with substitute fats the following list of 104 per cent fat foods may be useful: Commercial shortening or cooking fats, cottonseed oil. peanut oil, olive oil, corn. oil. sesame oil. It is especially Important that waste be guarded against during the holidays. Live well; you -can do finely at even less outlay than In former years, despite present prices.
