On Manners
"They didn't do that in my
day" has been said so many times
its effectiveness has been lost
Maybe they didn't do that, but
they did soineinmg eise.
Field workers of the historical i
records surrey, a WPA project,
found in old newspaper files
many. Interesting commentaries
on changing moaes ana manners.
A codt of the Oregon city spec
tator-dated February 19, 1846,1
describes a ball curiously reminis
cent of those held during the re
cent Portland fleet week. "Cap
tain Batllie and the run" room
officer of II. B. M. S. Modeste,
entertained a numerous circle at
a ball there upon Wednesday eve
ning. There was a brillian assem
blage of the 'fair sex' of Oregon,
and although, in "the far west.
yet from the gay display that
night, we are proud to state that
the infant colony can boast of as
pretty faces and handsome 'fiS-J
nres as the mother country.
Dancing commenced at 8 -o'clock
and it was pleasing to see 'trip
ping on the light fantastic toe'
kept up with such spirit. The
dresses of the ladies was a theme
of universal admiration, combin
ing neatness, elegance and ease.
"Reels, country dances, figures
eight and ligs was the order of
the evening; and if we do not
yet come to that fashionable
dance, the polka, still, we live in
hopes of seeing It soon introduced
at our own balls, a gentleman
who knows and dances it well.
and who lately visited the Falan-
tine Plains, having volunteered
to Instruct the Oregonlan beauties
in its intricacies."
A few years later, March 30,1
1852, the Oregon Statesman com
plained bitterly In describing a
"shocking new dance called the
waltz." Despite the disapproval of
certain elements, dancing contin
ued. Formally worded Invitations
have been found reading: '-'The
pleasure of your company is re
spectfully solicited to attend a
cotillion party at the Metropolis
hotel, Friday, December 25,
1857." The cost of tickets for this I
Portland function was not re
corded, but that for a similar
party held In Canyon City at
Christmas time during the gold i
rush was $7.50. ,
Tomatoes Have Hats
For Salads -
Tomatoes stuffed with cold
succotash keep their caps on
and look perky for a luncheon
salad. Chill the tomatoes well,
and fill with a mixture of corn
and beans that have been mari
nated and moistened with may
onnaise.
Put on the tops that were cut
off when tomatoes were scooped
out. garnish with parsley or
. mint and chill very cold.

" Guess what you would have had for dinner tonight If I hadn't
burned it!"
We'll guess it's his favorite dish and no doubt ; the carefree little
bride had her thoughts on a golf or tennis match while cooking
for her piquant frock is as adequate for active sports as for pre
paring meals even successful ones. It's of Jap silk in a brown and
yellow plaid, the front "slides' shut and the hack tucks a wide
pleat under the yoke for the "action hack" favorite of sports wear

Today ?s Menu
A tuna casserole is the fish
dish planned for dinner today.
Jellied grapefruit salad
Tuna casserole
New peas
Green apple pie
The tuna casserole includes po
tatoes and makes about the
whole main dish. Put alternate
layers of flaked tuna or other
fish in a buttered casserole, with
potato chips. Over it pour the
contents of a can : of cream of
mushroom soup or some cream
sauce. Top with crubs and dots
of butter and hrown well.
Mushroom Sauce Makes
Lamb Good
Handy old mushroom soup
i comes into popularity again when
I it's vsed in this recipe:
LAMB WITH
MUSHROOM SAUCE
2 tablespoons butter
S tablespoons flour
teaspoon salt f
1 medium can cream of mush
room soup
Cayenne ,
cup grated cheese
lhi cups diced cooked Iamb
Melt butter, add flour, salt and
i soup. Cook over hot water until
thick and smooth. Add few grains
i cayenne, grated cheese and lamb.'
Mix well, heat and serve on toast.
Beans Make Garnish
I Or Salad
String beans left full length
make a handsome vegetable when
stripped with pimiento pieces. A
: pile of them arranged on lettuce,
i garnished with tomato quarters
i and topped with mayonnaise
i make an easy but good tasting
! salad to go on a luncheon Plate
i with the main dish.
Some good cooks like to cut
their green beans (we don't say
'string" anymore) in very thin
, lengthwise strips, especially now
that they are getting pretty well
i matured.
Summer Sandwiches
Are Attractive
A summer sandwich i of out
standing charm has need of
corner on flavor to gam any
special interest among a multi
tude of sandwich possibilities.
You'll place your bet on
thin sliced cornucopia of bread
a Tolled, square shaped - slice-
filled with cream cheese flav
ored with small torn fragments
of dried beet and chopped i or
sliced ripe olives, and seasoned
with small amounts of onion
juice and Worcestershire eance.
Be careful not 'to thin the
cheese to the point where the
contents of the cornucopia are
hard , to control. I t
It's always so desirable to
have whole olives left for gar
nishing sandwich service, how
ever, that there is the I need I of
choosing whether we shall cut
whole ripe olives from the pit
by hand or use the ready pre
pared kind that add so much to
convenience in sandwich i and sal
ad making. ; j
Peaches Ready
To Can This
Weekend
Peach canning la going to
start with a boom the first of
next week, if Indications prove
right. Sloppys. those flavorful
not-so-good loking peaches that
are grand when canned are
supposed to make their appear
ance on the 15th. They usually
have to be ordered as there arc
not so very many grown.
The old standby Crawfords.
will come along almost Immed
iately, then will be Elbertas to
end up the successful canning
season, .
Below is a chart for canning
peaches, just about every pos
sible way.
Some good cooks can peaches
with the skins on. It's certainly
simple way. Merely wash and
wipe the peaches, can as usual.
If open kettle method Is used.
the skins can be taken out as
the fruit is packed in Jars. If
oven method is used, they are
taken out when the fruit is
served. Peaches are pinker, have
a perfectly grand flavor and are
awfully good canned this way.
Try a few jars this year and see
how the family likes them.
OPEN KETTLE METHOD
Plunge the fruit into boiling
water, put in cold water and slip
off the skins. Some prefer to
leave the seeds in, while others
halve the fruit and remove them
Drop fruit into a syrup made
from 6 cups boiling water and
6 cups sugar, cook just enough
to fill two or three jars. When
peaches are soft and done
through, pack Into Jars that
have been boiled for at least 6
minutes. Fill up with the syrup
and cover with sterilized lids.
Add more fruit to the kettle of
syrup, and more sugar and wa
ter if necessary and continue un
til fruit is used.
HOT WATER BATH
Tack skinned halved fruit in
to jars, add syrup made from
cup for cup of sugar and water,
put on the lids and set in hot
water up to the neck of the
jars. There should be a rack
so that jars do not set directly
on the bottom of the pan. Bring
water to a full rolling boil and
process 20 minutes. Mason or
Presto lids must be tightened
after removing, Kerr lids are
tightened before processing.
think the flavor warrants the
loss of some of the peaches.
PEACH CHUTXEY .
Heat 4 quarts cubed peaches
with 1 cup vinegar nntil steam
ing, add cup finely diced on
ion, 1 cup brown sugar,
pound Beeded raisins, 2 table
spoons mustard seed, 2 ounces
finely diced ginger, 1 teaspoon
salt, and 1 tablespoon paprika.
Cook slowly until thick.
PEACH PRESERVES
Halve and slice 5 pounds
peaches, add 10 cups sugar and
let stand 1 hour. Cook slowly
about 4 hour or until thick. A
medium can of drained, crushed
pineapple may be added before
cooking it wanted.
PICKLED PEACHES
Make a syrup of 2 cups vine
gar, 2 teaspoons stick cinnamon
and 1 teaspoon cloves and 7
cups sugar. Pour over 7
pounds peeled fruit in a crock.
Repeat this for 3 more days,
each time heating the syrup. The
fourth day, cook fruit until done
if it is not already clear ana
done.

The committee action, the
chairman said, was independent
of all other legislative proposals
before it. ; i
In addition it adopted a resolu

ness at the next session, whether
special or regular, and outlining
