isn't possible that you're the
mother of three!" ... "Why, I

days are glamour girls because
modern industry has taken much
of the work out of preparation
of foodstuffs; made cooking and
baking not merely easy but fun
also. Fun because of all the com

maker who does things "with

Suptr Froten Soups
Joining in a long list of frozen
foods, has recently come fresh
flavored, truly elegant frozen
condensed soups incans . To say
that they've had warm welcome
is putting it mildly. They've
proven sensational as to both
delicate flavor and texture; are
increasingly used as fine fla
vorful sauces as well as for the
soup course.
Cream of shrimp soup is a
smooth pink blend of flavorful
shrimp in rich cream along with
butter, tomatoes, sauterne and
spices. Oyster stew is made the
way famous oyster houses pre
pare it and that means with
choice tender oysters, fresh
whole milk and creamy butter.

LET CHILDREN HELP Today's young mother finds more
time than ever before for enjoying her children, letting them
help, teaching them how to fix good things like this straw
berry shortcake which gives all the family so much pleasure.
gourmet version of the old-fashioned
favorite. Green pea with
ham contains tender pieces of
ham, onions, celery, parsley,
spice and garlic.
To prepare the new frozen
canned soups, you simply place
the can in warm water for a
short time so contents will slide
out easily. Then add an equal
amount of water or milk. Heat
the soup, stir to blend and serve.
Many use these full-flavored
soups in ways like this:
Shrimp -Rice. Heat one can
frozen condensed cream of
shrimp soup in double boiler or
over low heat until soup is com
pletely defrosted. Add one-third
cup milk and one-fourth slivered
ripe olives; heat thoroughly.
Serve over thre cups cooked
rice (one cup uncooked) to serve
three.
Inslant Cake Mix Is
Mother-Daughter Delight
Quickest way to get a happy
young cake baker in the family
is to have Daddy bragging about
Daughter's cake-aking prowess.
Modern mothers turn daughter
loose in the kitchen with one
of the new instant cake mixes
(white, yellow or devil's food).
With a eater, a bowl and a bak
ing pan, she empties package of
instant cake mix into bowl, adds
two unbeaten eggs and water as
indicated; adds a bit of any ad
ditional flavoring desired, turns

the whole into cake pan . . and
attains c a k e-baking perfection
every time; wins papa's plaudits.
Golden Strawberry
Shortcake Uses Mix
Strawberry shortcake is an
other family favorite that is
quickly made nowadays. A des
sert that daughter will delight
in helping produce. Children, we
find, particularly like doing
things in heat-resistant glass
mixing bowls and baking dishes
because they want to see what
is going on. Mother must re
member that the child's eye
level is different from her taller
point of viewing; plan accord
ingly. Quickest possible strawberry
shortcake is made by emptying
a package of the new instant
yellow cake mix into a bowl;
adding one cup water, two un
beaten eggs and one tablespoon
lemon rind; beating three min
utes until smooth and creamy,
turning batter into 9x9x2 (or
comparable size) heat resistant
baking dish which has been
lined on ottom with paper.
Bake in moderate oven, 350
degrees, about 45 minutes. Cool
cake. Wash, slice and sweeten
two quarts fresh strawberries re
serving eight to nine whole ber
ries with hulls for garnish. Whip
one cup whipping cream; sweet
en if desired. Cut cake into nine
pieces. Split each piece and
spread sweetened berries be
tween layers and on top. Gar
nish with sweetened whipped
cream and whole berries. Nine
generous servings. And you'll
need every one of them!
Instant Frosting Mix
Then there's a b r . n d-n e w
fluffy instant white cake frost
ing that requires no cooking.
One package of this can't-f ail
mix produces at least four cups
of luscious fluffy frosting;
enough to spread generously be
tween the layers and to swirl
over top and sides of a nine inch
cake ... or whatever use you
want to make. All it requires is
cold water as it comes from the
tap and . beating with electric
or hand beater.
Today's glamour girl mother
and her daughter give this new
frosting distinctive touch by
tinting and flavoring in endless
ways. You can even add choco
late, fruits, coconut or nuts if
you like. Frosting miraculously
stays fluffy, does not shrink,
soak into the cake or become
crusty or sugary and the texture
remains the same as long as the
cake lasts.
Salad Dressing Mixes
The modern homemaker finds
a galaxy of salad dressing mixes
on the market. Famous chefs
have blended herbs and spices
to make five different variations
that require only the addition
of your favorite vinegar (cider,
salad, herb or wine) along with
water and salad oil to produce
such favorites as Old Fashion
French, Old Fashion Garlic,
Bleu Cheese, California French
or Exotic Herbs.
Distinctly diff ere, the good
seasonings come in envelopes.
For convenience, two different
envelopes of salad dressing
mixes are now available in one
kit which- contains a self-measuring
mixing bottle with correct
proportions of liquids marked
right on the bottle.
Sugar coated cereals enjoy tre
mendous popularity. Newest one
noted is raisin bran with sugar
coated raisins, using a dipped-in-honey
and rolled-in-sugar pro
cess that keeps the raisins juicy,
sweet and tender. Good i baked
fruit crisps, breads, cookies, des
serts an'i even added to entrees,
as well as enjoyed as a cereal.
Apple .flavored gelatin is new
est addition to galaxy of fruit
flavors for making handsome
molded salads and desserts.
Good with fruit in any combina
tion, it surprisingly combines
with vegetables in the making
of molded vegetable salads of
distinction; gives new flavor in
terest to chicken salad; makes
fine relish w i t h meat when
drained India relish is added.
Instant Pudding Addition
Young mothers have long
pleased the children with choco
late, vanilla-and butterscotch
pudding; often added shredded
coconut to them because the fam
ily likes coconut. Now there's a
coconut cream instant pudding
that needs only the addition of
ing with an egg beater for per
two cups of cold milk and beat-
ly good pudding or filling for
four tart shells or for awaked
eight-inch pie crust. Needs only
to stand 15 minutes or so before
serving. Many are enthusiastic
about this as topping for leftover
dessert or cake; use it as a sauce
for fruit.
Aluminum Foil Now Saves
Mother Much Time, Effort
Hailed as the product of 1001
kitchen miracles, pure alumi
num foil "uses" actually seem
unlimited; is rapidly becoming
standard household equipment.
A few of its time, effort and
money saving uses enjoyed by
Mother are:
Instant bowl covers that cling
without strings . . fine for wrap
ping leftovers for refrigerator
storage ... for lining broiler
pans and cooking utensiles r . .
for faster roasting of meats and
poultry . . . for storing and bak
ing fish sans refrigerator or
kitchen odors ... or packing
lunch boxes . . . cooking out
doors. Aluminum foil is used'to wrap
around baby's milk bottle on
trips and outings. It also keeps
butter and margarine from ab
sorbing odors; prevents cheese
odors from circulating. It catches
liquids that boil over in the oven
the utensil holding the food on
(use foil somewhat larger than
shelf beneath the one on which
the food rests; turn up foil
edges.)
Many think aluminum foil un
surpassed for freezing and stor
like it for moth-proofing storage,
ing foods in home-freezer units;
for lining and shelving cupboads
and wardrobes. Even gardeners
find unnumbered uses for it.
Instant Cocoa Mix. Family
craving for chocolate is satisfied
with this quick chocolate sauce
which is a family favorite on ice
cream, cake, puddings, canned
pears. Combine one cup instant
cocoa mix, dash of salt in sauce
pan.. Add lVfc cups hot water;
place over medium heat, bring
to boil, boil four minutes stir
ring constantly. Remove from
heat, add two tablespoons butter
and mix until smooth.

As We Live
Mother Keeps Her Age
A Deep, Dark Secret (
Some people are very sensi
tive about revealing their ages,
while others like to boast about
how old they are.
(Q) "I hare never known ex
actly how old my mother is, but
I suspect that she is in her late
seventies. The
ether day she
began to talk
about what she
wanted done
after she died.
She is in ex
cellent health
and there is no
reason for her
t o b e con-
Dr. Herlock cerned about
her death at this time. She was
very emphatic about not want
ing any indication of her age on
her tombstone.
"She has always refused to dis
cuss her age; we have suspected
it because she was older than my
father. He died three years ago,
and she had the date of his birth
and death carved on his tomb
stone. I. pointed out to mother
that this should be done on hers
too, since their graves would be
side by side but she became very
upset and said she could never
have any peace of mind unless
I promised to follow her wishes.
So, of course, I promised, but I
am a bit upset about the matter.
You know how people ask about
the age of a person, so what will
I tell when they ask me?"
(A) You will merely tell the
truth, .saying that your mother
never told you her age. Under
no conditions should you break
your promise to keep her age a
secret. Whatever her reason may
have been for asking you to
promise, the fact remains that
you gave your word and should
abide by it.
As for the tombstone, this
matter can be handled very eas
ily merely by recording the date
of her death and making no men-
