As the allies sweep on toward victory on ev ery fighting front in the world, the American people are beginning to relax their vigilance and decrease their war effort. This fact is evidenced by the failure of the American people to buy their quota of E war bonds, those to be purchased by individuals, and the migration of workers from the defense areas. Persons who have been serving a good purpose in defense work are beginning to leave the industrial areas, partly because they want to secure peace-time employment in their home communities and partly because some war pl ants are being closed. It is said that nothing succeeds like success, so, in our successful prelude to the culmination of the war, we can be confident and still con tinue the “ old drive” that has helped to make the allies successful in their military campaigns against the German and Japanese aggressors ES. we can still be generous with our hospitality—can still have the pleasure of Inviting friends for dinner— because hospi tality fortunately remains g non- rationed item. To be sure, we must do just a little careful planning to stretch those ration points wisely. Time-saving menus are Important, too— the kind that the war worker- homemaker-hostess can prepare easily and quickly. For a hearty main dlah— that usual menu problem— serve a meat and vegetable shortcake. Here we have used Creamed Prem and green peas on piping hot biscuits, fresh from the oven. But left-over meat of any kind can be used, or any one of the low-point table ready meats— frankfurters, too, are excellent.
