There's many a thing to do
with baking soda besides bak
ing with it. Church and Dwight,
leading figures in the Baking
Soda Institute, staged a lively
County Fair forothe foods ed
itors in which practical demon
strations of a score of uses of
this househol staple. Here are a
few: Baking soda is a safe, ef
fective and economical denti
frice. Pour soda in palm of hand
and use as dentifrice or as mouth
wash.Wng one teaspoon" soda
in a glass of wateft Flash fires
resulting from grease in broilers
or spattered grease should be
showered with baking soda.
Under no circumstances, use
water in this emergency. One
of the very best applications
to allay the pain of superficial
scalds' or burns is to quickly
make' a paste or a solution of
baking soda.
Clean linoleum by dissolving
two tablespoons baking soda in
one quart of warm water and
use a small mop r cloth, rins
" ing with cloth wrung in clear
' water; helps remove grease and
grime quickly.
Good idea! Keep a box of bak
ing soda in your car not only
for ready protection against
flash fires, but also for cleaning
windshield and headlights on
long trips. A .little baking soda
end water on cloth will remove
crushed bugs and scummy film
adhering to surfaces. Baking
soda and bicarbonate of soda are
one and the same product! Use
baking soda for freshing refriger
ator, ice trays, meat boxes, crisp
er trays, shelves; for glistening
glass and crystal, for quickly
and thoroughly removing tarnish
from silverware. For this just
cover bottom of large enameled
pan with aluminum foil. Add
one teaspoon baking soda to
each quart of water. Heat to
boiling. Immerse each piece of
silver so that e it touches foil.
The electrolytic action makes the
tarnish disappear. Rinse and dry.
Pump Room Menu
. Fabulous Pump Room of the
Ambassador East Hotel in Chi
cago was festive setting for
luncheon sponsored by Wilson
and Co. with foods on flaming
swords and other special Pump
Room0dishes including a rich
curry dish, Chicken , Portolla,
that. was baked and served in a
coconut shell and Ice Cream Ber
muda which proved to be choc-'
olate ice cream with a banana
and liquor sauce. Flaming, nat
urally! '" 7 " . "
Bread-N Butter Wafflu
An air of friendliness and
r e lay o n characterized the
"Wind-Up" breakfast at the
Drake Hotel on closing day of
the newspaper foods editors con
ferences. Hosts and hostesses
fm American Dairy Associa
tion and frci General Foods for
Log Cabin Syrup, greeted guests
a? they entered the Cape Cod
Room reminiscent of early New
England with knotty wood pan
eling, hanging pots and pans
and red-checked tablecloths.
Fresh strawberries topped with
soft ice cream was followed by
bread n' butter waffles, sausage
patties, apple rings and of course,
Log Cabin Syrup. The new fast
waffles call merely for spread
ing bread with butter, dipping
into an egg-milk mixture and
flipping into a waffle iron. Fine
idea for Junior and Junior Miss
to fix up when Mother slows
down on the breakfast routine.
Experts Caution Against
Self-imposed Salt Diet
Liveliest session - of entire
foods editors conference ensued
when the Salt Institute present
ed two authorities on the sub
ject of "Salt in your Diet in
Health". Dr. G. E. Wakerlin,
professor of Physiology and
Head of the Department of the
University of Illinois College of
Medicine (also a vice president
of the Chicago Heart Associa
tion) and Dr. Wright Adams
Professor and Chairman of the
Department of Medicine, Uni
versity of Chicago. Gist of their
fine and thoughtful addresses
was that "healthy persons at
tempting 'self-imposed salt- re
stricted diets run the risk of
cutting the salt reserve below
the level required for proper
body function".
They pointed out that "every
cell in the body requires salt
for life and normal function. It
is one side of the balance among
fluids which keep people well
Its supply and activity should
not be interfered with except
for the most pressing reasons"
They further stated that "since
salt has no calories, cutting
down on salt will not cut down
on excess fat and that anyone
who would be benefited by with
holding salt from the diet is a
sick person and needs medical
care.
Frizzled Ham. Use thin slices
of boiled ham. Saute in butter
or melted ham fat until edges
are curled and crisp, turning
to brown evenly and lightly on
both sides. Serve like bacon.
