PAGE TWENTY-TWO HERALD AND NEWS, KLAMATH FALLS. OREGON THURSDAY, AUGUST 21, 11)52 Br DOROTHY roe Aniw-tatrd rrni Womrn'a Editor A woman' touch ts transforming dome aspects of the railroad bust' HCF. She Is Ann Elgar Stevenson, as ri.stant lo the vice president of Ui Chesapeake and Ohio Railway Company, who spends about hall of her time these days riding the various trains of the system, keep ing a weather eye out for possible Improvements in comfort, clean liness and service. Mrs. Stevenson belles her fragile, feminine appearance. Her hi blue eves can spot a speck of dust at 10 paces, and dining room stew ards snpn to attention at her ap proach. She describes her Job thus: "I'm kind of a namtlng wile lo the operating department. Much of ! my work seems to be minding j oinrr peoples uuawesa. nmwn I see something amiss in any de- coaches, new colors In your room ette, you can be pretty sure that these are the results of a woman executive's (ouch. Much of Mrs. Stevenson's Job en tails housekeeping know-how. One of the first thniBs she did was lo institute Improvements tn car cleaning systems, suggest new and more efficient methoos. try out new cleaning materials, and show stewards how to keep timing cars neater. Waitresses on one of the line's divisions now wear smart yellow uniforms with white p:que puritan collars and coronet caps. And ex jerlments are under way to snap up the wallers' uniforms with a touch of color and better fit. Whenever she rides as a passen ger on one of the C & O trains. Mrs. Stevenson suggests diplomatically it would give a nice personal touch if the steward met each passenger partment of the .system, my Job;"- V""'J . V " It to try to correct it. tnis requires a great amount of diplomacy. It sounds like an unpopular sort of a Job but really It's tun. And I think I've made more friends than enemies." WOMEN'S INFLUENCE Mrs. Stevenson is one of a grow ing group of women holding ex ecutive Jobs with the nation's rail roads, and their influence is to be seen on manv of the country's trains.

Hot cooked cereal Is becoming more and more popular. W e like to cook oatmeal in milk and add a handful of raisins to the cereal as it cooks. LUNCH TIP Here's a sandwich tip for moth ers who are once more getting into the routine of packing school lunches. Chopped eng becomes a favorite sandwich filling with the kids If you make tt a chipped egg and ripe olive conbination. The chopped ripe olives are packed in 44-ounce size containers for your convenience. SCHOOL FOOD Djop cookies are easy to pack In a school lunch box. Along with a piece of fresh fruit they make a good dessert. Homemade raisin walnut cookies, either chocolate or spice, are about the biggest fa vorite of all. These cookies keep well to. provided you hide the cookie jar. SHARP! Try this popular apricot whole fruit nectar dressing on a fuit salad. Blend cup apricot whole fuit nectar with 3 tablespoons honey and 1 tablespoon cornstarch, and cook until thickened. Blend In 3 tablespoons lemon Juice and chill. Fold 1 cup whipped cream into dressing before serving. PERFECT For a change from the prover bial green salad, introduce a fruit salad now and then to serve with the main course of your dinner menu. This combination is perfect for late summer. Combine sliced bananas, canned cling peach slices. whole cooked prunes and chunks of cantaloupe in individual salad bowls. Marinate with a French dressing. with courtesy and friendliness the best headwaiter manner. WATCHES Details such as piles of loose silver -left on the tables, clogceil salt shakers or slovenliness in the appearance of waiters alt conu under her eagle eye. It's the same kind of Job done by every good housewife every day and nobedy but a woman could do it. Say Mrs. Stevenson: "You have to go slowly, so as not to offend anyone. But little by little we're getting things done. Little things such as providing tree reading material in coaches and seeing that all headrests in a coach are the same color can make a tot of difference in a passenger's lm-Dressions. "We try to stress friendliness among the employes of the Hue. and this is one effort that Is re flected in comments of passengers. They appreciate and remember any little added courtesy of a por ter or a steward." Among projects Mrs. Stevenson ls in mind are: Moving the bars from ticket windows in sta tions, smartening up the dress of ticket salesmen and getting addi tional coat hangers, w-ith skirt and trouser clips, in sleeper bedrooms. i i CLUB SANDWICH PLATE for a hot weather (upper it aatily prepared. No on it very hungry these hot days of summer and the family just doesn't do justice to a full-sixed dinner or supper. So, copy this idea from smart restaurants and serve a club sandwich supper on a siixling day. Set up with a chef's eye for appeal. Use your prettiest, most colorful plates and arrange sand wiches open-faced with sliced chicken and tomato on one slice of bread and crisp lettuce and crisp fried bacon on the other. Garnish with mayonnaise and stuffed olives. Pile shredded cole slaw in a green pepper rinq by each sandwich. Heap potato chips in a gay woven basket and pour cold drinks in cold glases. Keep second servings in the refrigerator. (RsuripA The school crowd will soon be and milk. Mix well. Add and stir In ganging up at your house and that j Cup of the gumdrops.
