WHEN YOU FLAN A PICNIC FOR A CROW»
(Recipea Below.)
Community picnics are funl They
offer an opportunity for a carefree
day under the opcp sky—carefree

well and chosen her helpers wisely.

responsible
for
each main dish
such as meat, po­
tatoes. salad, des*
cert, and bever­
age. and one re­
sponsible for extras such as buns,
butter, relisnes, etc. There'll be a
serving committer end a clean-up
committee, as well.
Picnics fur four or five families
are usually co-operative affairs.
Each family may supply its own
lunch, but more often each one pro­
vides one Item in large enough quan­
tities to serve the crowd One fam­
ily might provide the salad, one the
meat, and still another family the
dessert, which might be watermel-
on, a luscious chocolate cake, or a
freezer full of old fashioned ice
cream. With a little planning, the
cost can be fairly equally distrib­
uted.
When an outing is in the offing and
it's up to you to plan the menu for
a crowd, you'll find these picnic
pointers helpful.
1. if lunch is being prepared at
home, choose foods U»at permit be­
forehand preparation, and that are
not too difficult to carry or to serve.
2. Provide a fairly simple meal,
with plenty of everything but not so
much variety that it will cause con­
tusion and lots of extra work.
3. Unless you are sure of a good
water supply, it's better to carry the
water from home.
4. Carry fruit juices, tomato juice
or milk in thermos bottles.
5 The main dish for the picnic—
which might be chili, baked beans,
or escaUoped potatoes, can be
cooked the day before, then in
morning brought to the boiling point,
and the dutch oven or casserole
wrapped In several thicknesses of
newspaper to retain the heat
fl Don't overlook the possibilities
in frozen foods for picnic use. Quick-
frozen meats can be carried, with­
out Ice, even on a warm day. They
thaw out on the way to the picnic
ground and will be ready to use.

EXTRA FLAVOR
(Released by Western Newspaper Union.I
(Serves 25)
1 cup shortening
3 cups light brown sugar
3 eggs (slightly beaten)
344 cups cake flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
44 teaspoon salt
144 teaspoons soda
44 cup sour milk
4s cup cocoa
1 cup boiling water
* 1 teaspoon vanilla
Cream shortening and add sugar
gradually, blending well after each
addition. Add slightly beaten eggs
and mix well. Sift together the flour,
baking powder, salt, and soda. Add
to the creamed mixture alternately
with the milk. Blend cocoa and
boiling water. Add to the cake bat­
ter with the vanilla, and mix just
until the batter is smooth. Pour
into 3 fl-inch square pans, which
have been greased and lined with
wax paper. Bake in a moderate
oven (350 degrees) for about 30 miry
utes.
Red Corduroy
Coming in are a series of toque
and turban fashions that suggest
the quaint bonnets worn in the six­
ties. You wear them back of the
pompadour and the inspiring note
about these little chapeaux are they
are becoming to youth and to the
not so young, as well. In fact for
the matronly type these turbans and
toques solve the pompadour hat
problem perfectly. An older woman
who could under no circumstances
venture to wear a wide brim posed
back on the head such as the teen
age delights in. finds that the little
draped toques are a triumphant so­
lution.
Also there is comfort in the
thought that milliners are designing
smart hats that are intended to dip
over the brow, that tune to the new
style demands every whit as smart­
ly as do the excitingly new pompa­
dour effects.
Meat Loaf.
(Serves 25)
4*4 pounds beef (ground)
144 pounds pork (ground)
44 cup quick cooking tapioca
3 eggs (beaten)

44 teaspoon sage or poultry sea­
soning
1 No. 244 can tomatoes
Combine Ingredients in the order
given, reserving about half at tha
tomatoes. Pack into 3 long, narrow
loaf pans and bake in a moderate
oven (350 degrees) for about 144
hours. At the end of the first 45
minutes, pour the tomatoes which
were reserved for this over the top
of the meat loaf, and continue bak­
ing.

Toque and Turban
Fashions Arriving
It’s time to give thought to the
inevitable easy-to-slip-on jacket that
is indispensable when cool breezes
announce that autumn days are
here. The pick of them all. in the
estimation of fashion-wise college
girls and their younger school-far­
ing sisters is the jacket that is made
of bright red corduroy. A grand
twosome for early fall days on the
campus or for general wear when
the tang of autumn calls for com­
fortable wraps is a jacket of stop­
light red corduroy such as is pic­
tured here, topped with a matching
hat of the identical corduroy.
Gold Jewelry Will
Be Worn This Fall
In spite of the fact that gold jew­
elry has been somewhat out of the
picture for a brief spell comes re­
ports to the effect that it has again
come to the fore in the style pic­
ture. However, the new gold jewel­
ry that will enliven smart black
jersey dresses and those of sheer
wools, is not of the garish spectacu­
lar type. There is exquisite refine­
ment expressed in subtle detail and
workmanship in the incoming neck­
laces, bracelets, pins, clips and la­
pel ornaments.
EXTRA MILDNESS

Soft fringe and lacing are two
decorative trims used together on a
pretty pair of white linen shoes
shown by a New York designer. The
shoe is a very high-heeled pump
laced up the toe and down the back
of the shank. The throat of the
pump is edged with a rim of nar­
row fringe repeated in a straight
band below each crossed lacing oa
the toe.
