Soup may be made ahead of time, reheated and served easily with sandwiches or salad for a well-balanced lunch. Soup making is one of the old est of cooking arts known to the homemaker, and though we do not serve it as often as did our ances tors, a fragrant bowl of soup on a brisk cool day has lost none of its charm. We like soup for many reasons. First of all, there's its delicious aroma and its good, filling qual ity. If your serve a hearty soup, you need little else with it, per haps just a salad and light des sert. Soups are especially noted for nourishment. Meats and vege tables they have plentifully; and if it’s a cream soup you are serv ing, well, that’s an easy way to get milk and cream into the diet. Soup is a good filler-upper if you feed a hungry crowd of men who work out-of-doors all day long. It’s also a good stimulant for thhe appetite. Soups made with quantities of milk are especially fine to serve for luncheon if you have children. They’re easy to make and you don’t have to worry if the young sters are a little late in getting home because soup is easy to keep hot, and will not spoil with a bit of extra cooking.

CREAM OF PEA SOUP (Serves 6) 2 cups canned peas 14 cup finely chopped onion 2 tablespoons fat 2 tablespoons flour * 2 cups rich milk 114 teaspoons salt 14 teaspoon pepper LYNN SAYS: How to Serve Soup: If you are serving a thin soup, the proper dish is a two-handled cup of some sort. This is used because it is quite correct for people to lift them up and drink the soup. Hearty soups such as chow ders are served in soup plates, bowls or marmites. Never serve a chowder as a first course be cause it is much too heavy a soup for this type of eating. Cream soups may be cor rectly served as a first course, as our thin soup, but do not make the servings too gener ous or the remainder of the dinner will go begging. If the soup is to be served hot, it must be piping hot. Make sure the family is ready to come to dinner before dish ing it out. Chilled soups are good on warm nights, and may be served in the two - handled dishes suggested above. Accompaniments f o r soup should be small and dainty, at tractively served on small plates with doilies.

As a m atter of fact the vote on the Rankin veter- ans pension bill indicates there is little courage or personal responsi bility. at least in the face of retalia- tion by powerful groups. On the Rankin bill here’s what happened. On one motion which would have killed the bill on a standing vote, the house voted 154 to 139 to kill the measure. On a teller vote on another motion which would also have killed it, they voted 163 to 154 to kill it. But not an hour later when they were put on a spot for an official vote which would go in the Congressional Record, they flip-flopped and re fused to kill the bill 223 to 187. Then the next day, after a few heads had been cracked and two members changed their vote, the house by a 208 to 207 tally, voted to send the bill back to committee, which although it does not actually kill the bill, definitely defers ac tion.

FOLEY PILLS Backaches r Soups such as chowders may be served at the table from a tureen. A salad and dessert com plete the meal and give hearty nourishment even though mem bers of the family may be engaged in heavy work. e e The whole question is—How sick is America and can individ uals afford to pay for It? One survey shows that on any given day at least seven million Americans are absent from their work because of some ill ness or disability. Lack of medi cal care and proper facilities for care are most flagrant in rural areas. The taxpayers are now paying something like two billion dollars a year on health with little improvement. The proposed national health bill is offered as a media for improv ing health, providing for media of payment and a substitute for much of the money now being expended. The medical associa tion has belatedly offered a plan of its own which would In clude a department of health with cabinet status. It is not likely to pass. F i s h chowders are hearty enough to serve with just a salad, preferably fruit, and a light des sert.
