The Truth of It I n . , . Thin Cherry Torten I n Good!
(See Recipes Below)
Washington Day Ideas
It took Washington to make the
cherry famous by telling the truth
about cutting down that famous tree,
but It takes only a sampling to make
us appreciate the excellence of this
luscious red-ripe berry.
If you're sensitive to color, and
most of you are, 1 am sure. then
you can mukc the
most of the possi­
bilities which the
cherry offers for
pepping up win­
ter mealtime.
With appetites
riding high, but
opportunities for
decoration fairly
low in these cold­
er months, the
Washington birthday and its syno-
nym the cherry, come to the rescue.
All of today's recipes have "Um-
uni" tacked onto them, so make
your bids for fume by starting off
with:
•Cherry Torten.

Lynn Hayn:
The cherry family is one with
many branches. In addition to
the red, tart pitted cherries which
are abundant in the summer and
which can easily be put up well
in cans, there are two other types
of cherries worthy of mention.
The first of these is a white
type cherry commonly called
Queen Anne. This lends itself
well to salads and adds distinc­
tive flavor especially when used
in combination with other fruits
such as pineapple, oranges,
grapefruit and bananas. A little
bit of the Queen Anne cheery goes
a long way.
The other type, called Bing
cherries, are deep, dark red, and
quite sweet. For that reason they
are at home in desserts. They
can be made into sauces and
served over Ice creams and pud­
dings.

The Stocking Future?
It Couldn't Be Brighter
Just because there is a lull in the
silk supply and a possible shortage
of nylon because of "priorities,”
there's no reason to worry about
hosiery futures. The inflow of stock­
ing fashions that make use of cot­
ton, lisle and spun rayon meshes
is most heartening.
