PAGE THREE Homemakers' School Pleases Crowds; Next Session Thursday MEDFORD MAIL TI?D3UN"E, MEDFORD, OREGON. TUESDAY, MAT 29, 1934. L OPENS TODAY AT RIALTOTORE Interesting Program by Es telle Calkins for Thursday No School Tomorrow Because of Holiday 'Kltcheneerlng," written about, read about and talked about for weeks, became a happy reality to day for Med ford housewives who left the Rial to theater at the conclusion of the first day's program with well filled notebooks and well-thrilled hearts. For who, whether house wives who see and hear or husbands or families who dine, wouldn't be thrilled by the array of dishes deftly demonstrated today by Miss Estelle Calkins for the Safeway Stores Home makers' Bureau? It was the further delight of the dispersing audience that there are atlll two more days of "Kitcheneer lng" to be heard, and If the "ohs" and "aha" that were reflected In the crowd comments following the first day's demonstrations are to be taken as Indicative of the Interest at the aesstons Thursday and Friday then 'come early and avoid the rush" should be a more than sufficient word to the wise. Doors, by the way, are opened very promptly at 1 o'clock. Julia Lee Wright, as national di rector of the Homemakers Bureau and kltcheneer-ln-chlef In the plan ning of the program has, If one may be forgiven for the utmost simplicity of expression, "done a swell Job." And If we were a man, which we sometimes wish that we were, we'd take off our hat, and probably loosen our belt, In appreciation both of the dishes described and the manner of their description. One can well imagine, for example, that men will be less dignified, though none the less enthusiastic, in their approval of an English beef steak pte that was lifted bodily out of ancient English history by the Homemakers" Bureau, given a few deft touches of modernization, and offered from the stage here as a fas cinating culmination to the expla nation of a brand new way of mixing pastry. And then there was a real, genuine. Identifiable and flavorful graham crust. Bane of many a, housewife's existence, particularly when the chil dren are denied the richer pastries, graham cracker crust was revealed by Miss Calkins as the subject of thousands of inquiries received by the bureau. Inquiries which resulted In many hours of patient testing and experimentation in the bureau kitchen to develop and perfect the recipe which she demonstrated. "The beauty of this crust," Estelle Calkins contributed to this reporter's inter rogation, "is that it shouldn't ever fail if directions are followed, and the directions are certainly simple." It can, she pointed out, be used on just about any kind of pie. Those to whom a good meringue has been more of a mirage than a meringue, and there are plenty of us, were given a real ray of light by Miss Calkins in her demonstration of ways and means to prevent the singing of the meringue's theme song, "Why I Fall for You." The elimination of watery meringues was accomplished at the same time, end for the tips given many a grateful homemaker must hae called down KITCHENEERING T- r EXPERT SHOPS IN PERSON r , 1T-X rft fcV .. 3f IMPOHTANT NOTICE .Miss Estelle Calkins, who dellghtrd MetKnrd nml southern Oregon with her cookery talk at (he Ulalto theater today, does her shopping In Med ford's two fine Safeway stores, one at West Mnln nnd Grape streets nnd the other on North Central avenue. Foods to lie used Tor the Homcinak ers Bureau School Thursday and Friday were purchased by the well known dietitian and culinary expert. blessings upon Miss Calkins and upon the work done by the bureau in per- fecting meringue-making. i Another fascinating revelation brought by the first day of "Kitchen eering" was the peculiar affinity of a standard and highly perfected bis cuit recipe to a variety of delicacies, featured among them being dump lings glazed with maple syrup and served with a maple hard sauce. Beans Bermuda proved to be an alliance of beans and onions, and one of the hits of the day was a simple cabbage salad Involving car rots, apples, raisins, pineapple and mayonnaise In addition to a husky head of cabbage. Those who like continued stories were satisfied, too, for the course in troduced the first chapter In the making of peanut butter ice cream as a Juvenile Joy with an adult ap peal, more about it being promised for chapter two which will be re vealed Thursday. Mothers whose dessert problem for children is one of variety combined with healthful ness were reported to be In eager an ticipation of the completed product. Then, to top off the program In a way that whetted every appetite for more. Miss Calkins demonstrated the preparation of a complete meal on a single broiler, Interesting not only because of Its simplicity of prepara tion but because It does things In a major way for those housewives who don't mind washing broilers alone, but do dislike finding a used broiler forgotten on the stove after all of the other pots and pans have been scoured thin. All In all, the opinion of those present seemed to be that "Kltchen eerlng" might well be called by the name that Julia Lee Wright has given to the cookbook which has added to her fame as a home eco nomist, "Recipes You'll Enjoy." For today's recipes were enjoyable, and will undoubtedly be enjoyed for a long, long time to come In local homes. After the program, hundreds of women filed past the tables on which the finished products were , displayed. What they saw must in- deed have inspired many of them to determine upon especial treats for . the home table at the earliest op portuntty, and It is quite likely that many a local dinner tonight will be given a new air of festivity, thanks to Miss Calkin's effective demonstra tions, which will be continued start- i ing at 'a o'clock Thursday.
