Here are a few delightful ways of using up pieces of stale bread: Savoury Pudding Soak a few pieces of stale bread in half a pint of milk. When well soaked add a pinch of pepper and salt and ma.sh with a fork. Stir in two beaten eggs and three tablespoons of grated cheese, put all into a pan and gently simmer for a few minutes. Pour into a buttered dish, sprinkle with a little finely chopped onion and chopped parsley and bake In a hot oven for fifteen minutes. Serve hot, md any that is left over can be cut Into slices and browned under the grill. Gooseberry Pudding The Children will love gooseberry pudding, it makes a delicious supper dish. Soak a tew pieces of stale bread in cold water until quite soft, then strain away the water, and break up with a fork. Grease a small pudding basin, fill it with alternate layers of the soaked bread and gooseberries, sprinkle with sugar,' and when quite full cover the top with a piece ot greaseproof paper and tie down with a cloth. Put into a saucepan halt filled with boiling water, and gently boil for 1% hours. Remove the basin from the pan and when quite cold turn out the pud- ding, sprinkle with sugar and serve with custard. Steamed Fruit Pudding Ingredient: 8 oz. bread, 3 oz. flour, 4 oz. shredded suet. 4 oz. currants and sultanas, 1 oz. candied peel, 3 oz. sugar, 2 eggs, a teaspoon baking powder, a little grated nutmeg. Soak the bread in cold water tor halt an hour, squeeze out the moisture and mash the bread with a fork. .\dd the flour, suet, sugar and fruit and mix well together, add the grated nutmeg and the beaten eggs, and lastly the baking powder. Pour into a greased pudding basin and steam tor three hours. Turn out and serve with custard or jan: sauce. Taste and Try If you want to be a good cook you must taste your cooking as seasonings cannot go by rule alone. Vegetables are more sinned against in cooking than any other class o food. It is no wonder some people think they do not like vegetables when you see the way they are often spoiled in cooking. Be careful not to overcook your vege- tables. Tasting is the only way to tell if you have enough salt and the salt Is much better added before the vege- table is cooked than added after it has been drained. Some vegetables need sugar and that you can only tell by tasting. Beets, peas and corn are sure .to require sugar unless they are just freshly picked. Taste and try. Blouse and Skirt For Evening The shirtwaist vogue is taking Us high C in nice shape. You don't have to be Mae West or a 1910 hourglass to wear the newest shirtwaist styles. They're lovely foolishment and rather amazingly modern. Nothing antima- cassar about the present vintage. Con- vict stripes of gray, white and black on velveteen come from the Main- bocher collection. Mainbocher also shows that in 1933 one may wear a shirtwaist tor evening. But it's a de- licious peplum blouse in reality in a mad bright red. worn with a black vel- ret skirl of very back-flowing, mermaid lines. Potatoes Need Attention Too often careless cooking sends to our tables potatoes which have lost much of their natural food value. Simple as potato cookery is, it never- the less requires thought and vigilance to prepare perfectly even so common I dish as plain boiled potatoes. Children generally like potatoes and If the vegetable is properly cooked it gives good returns for the money in- fested. The time-honored combination of "meat and potatoes'' is founded on merit. Irish potatoes arc low in vita- min A, medium in B and good in C. They also contain an alkaline salt which Is beneficial in offsetting the acid-forming salts of meat. Herein lies their value as an accompaniment to meals. They aid materially in re- ducing the acid condition of the body and tend to keep it in good condition. Potatoes resemble the dark cereals as a source otjron. One medium sized potato yields the same amount of iron grams as one slice of beet 2% by 1^ by % inches. Saving Mineral Water The following suggestions will help you to prepare potatoes so as to get the greatest percentage of food value. When potatoes are pared and allowed to stand In cold water before cooking, much of the protein and mineral mat- ter is lost. Mineral matter is wasted, too, when potatoes are peeled and put on to cook in cold water. Peeled pota- toes cooked in boiling water and salted when almost done lose less of their food value, but un peeled potatoes, baked or steamed, lose none of the food value. Boiled potatoes should be cooked in as little water as possible in a closely covered sauce pan. Potatoes for boiling may, of course, be peeled or unpeeled, but since valu- able mineral salts and nutriments are lost in the water during cooking when potatoes are peeled, it's advisable to cook them in their "jackets." If pota- toes are preferred cooked without the skins, they should be pared as thinly as possible and the water In which they are cooked used in the meat gravy or a soup tor some other meal. It behooves every homemaker to make the most of this vegetable and avoid all loss of food value and waste of material. Stuffed Peppers Two green peppers, four small toma- toes, half cup cracker crumbs, one egg, half cup milk, two tablespoonj grated cheese, halt teaspoon salt, pepper. Select large peppers of even shape, cut in halves and remove seeds. Place a small peeled tomato in each half. Mix cracker crumbs with slightly beat- en egg, milk and cheese. Add salt and pepper. Spread mixture over tomato, letting it fill cavity ot pet per to the top. Dot with shortening and place in individual ramekins. Bake in moder- ately hot oven till jjeppers ar^ tender. This recipe makes four servings. Kitchen Short Cuts If blotting-paper is used lor lining shelves of a damp cupboard, cereals will not clog together. The blotting- paper must be changed about every three months, and will be quite damp with moisture absorbed. The inside of men's trouser pockets get worn and frayed, and it is a good idea to sew a piece of chamois leather or velvet on the inside of the pockets. When the hemstitching on bed linen breaks, open up the hem, slip the edge of the sheet or pillow into It, and stitch down. This makes it look neat and is very strong. *Vo warm over biscuits, or rolls, sprinkle lightly with water, then place pan containing them in a larger pan ot hot water. Put In oven for a few minutes to freshen before serving. In a custard recipe calling for sev- eral eggs, one or more may be left out if Va tablespoon of cornstarch is added for each egg omitted. Before heating milk in a saucepan, rinse the pan with cold water and it will not scorch so easily. When cake or bread is too brown or is burned, grate gently with a fine grater (nutmeg grater preferred) until the cake or bread is a golden brown. Leave one small section of a gem pan empty when putting gem batter in pan. Fill this section with water and gems will never scorch. Shredded coconut, which has become dry, can be freshened by soaking it in sweet milk for a few minutes before using. Birth certificates are essential to French marriages; a man in Boulogne lost his in a fire and applied for a new one, which was duly issued. But he was officially registered as a "female," and now he can't get married until an- other birth certificate is issued. Illustrated Dressmaking Lesson Fur- nished With Every Pattern. Note tlie small diagram â€" just two parts to the pantee pattern. It closes at the side. The brassiere is shaped and shirred at the centre-front to give it ample fulness.** Several sets could easily be made in a single morning and at an amaz- ingly small cost. Note the flat slimness of the hips and the comfortable fulness of the legs. Crepe de chine, crepe satin and ba- tiste are nice mediums. Style No. 2893 is designed for sizes 14, 16, 18. 20 years, 32, 34, 36, 38 and 40 inches bust. Size 16 requires 1% yards 35-inch. HOW TO ORDER P.\TTERNS. Write your name and address plain- ly, giving number and size of such patterns as you want. Enclose 15c in stamps or coin (coin preferred; wrap it carefully) for each nunrber, and address your order to Wilson Pattern Service. 73 West Adelaide St., Toronto. Airplane Grounded With Marriage Cheer Prince Albert. â€" Autumnal storms which grounded an airplane cast gloum over the little southern settlement ot Lac La Runge, 200 air miles from here. There waa to be a wedding, but the bridal bouquet, the wedding cake and champagne for the toast were aboard the delayed 'plane. It was the wedding day uf Miss Mabel Alice Westerman. Chapleuu, Out., nurse, and W. J. Pickering, of Prince Albert, north country radio operator. What to do? Soon the resourcefulness ot the northerners came tt the rescue. The cook at the mission baked a cuke. Mis- sion childlren gathered flowers, trad- ing post stores yielded canned meats for sandwiches, and a friend produced liquid appropriate to the occasion. The wedding was a success. Women Should Have Equality in the Air, Says Amelia Elarhart New York. â€" Amelia Earhart Putnan would like to see equality for women in the air as well as on the ground. So she said In the aviation booth at the 12th annual exposition ot women's arts and industries. "We hope that women pilots will soon be regarded as pilots' and not as •women pilots'," she said. "It isn't right, nor scientific," Mrs. Putnan said, "to say that women can't fly as well as men. They have proven that they can, and should be accredited so. "Not to mention adequate physical makeup and such, women are just as experienced in meeting the outside world now as men." BEHIND THE SCREENS FOR THE 'TALKIE" FAN By P. M. The Optimists Creed Promise myself: To be strong that nothing can dis- turb your peace of mind. To talk health, happiness and prosperity to every person you meet; To make all your friends feel that there is something in them; To look at the sunny side of every- thing and make your optimism come true ; To think only of the best; to work for the best, and expect only the best ; To be as enthusiastic about the suc- cess of others as you are about your own ; To forget the mistakes of the past and press on to the greater achieve- ments of the future. To wear a cheerful countenance at all times and give every living crea- ture you meet a smile. To give so much time to the im- provement of yourself that you have no time to criticize others. To be too large for worry, too noble for anger, too strong for fear, and too li.ippv to permit the presence of trou- ble. Silo Topples Over Silos have been known to toppk' over when empty, but it is a rare thing to have a silo fall over when it is full. On the farm of Kenneth Bab- cock, near Kingston. 00 tons of ensil- age had been put in the silo w'hen some of the men noticed that the foundation seemed to be sinking. The matter was not considered serious and the filling proceeded until about eight feet from the top, when sudden- ly the entire silo toppled over, crush- ing the pipes. All the- men were able to jump aside and no one was hurt. know it, is remember. Editor'! Note: â€" It Is In keeping "ItJi tlie times tliat this column make Its appearance. Dnrlny tlie past year Hol- lywood has been definitely cballensred by the EngfUsh Studios. After snch snc- GGsses as "Borne Hspress" â€" "Sunshine Snsie" â€" "The Good Companions," etc., England has deanlt:ly made a bid for public favor and. according to the re- sponse, undoubtedly has won. This column will introduce and make familiar the stars of the Eng-lish Cinema World, as well as grive yoa the latest tit-bits about your favorites of Hollywood.

Noel (Cavalcade) Coward has writ- ten many witty and delightful plays, but no more successful piece than "Bitter Sweet." I understand Cana- dian fiilm tans will soon have an op- portunity of seeing this delightful tale ot old Vienna. September seems to hava gone out with a honeymoon rush down Holly- wood way. Jean Harlow twice married (divorce ended her first marriage and death her second) evidently is not daunted. She recently wed H. G. Ros- son, movie cameraman. Everyone will wish her luck. Wedding bells in the modern manner have sounded again for Sally Eilers. Harry Joe Brown, well known director, is the lucky man. They eloped by plane from Hollywood to Yuma, -Ari- zona's "Gretna Green." Beltie Davis, popular young film star, created a sensation recently when she attended a premiere escorted by eight boy friends. This was .Miss Davis' ans- wer to all the gossip irc.ind Hollywood regarding the separation rumors about Belte and her husband, Harmon 0. Nelson, Jr. Bette's escorts ot the evening included all the men her name had been linked with and several more. .\ good idea, say we! Interesting, if true! According to old man gossip, since Carole Lombard divorced Bill Powell (much to every- one's surprise), she is reported going places with Gary Cooper. Clive Brook, favorite the world over, for his screen characterizations, is also the author ot several published short stories.

Any ordinary garden soil is suitable, but it should be well dug and drained. -â- V position in full sun suits them best, but they will blooa in half shade for a season or two. TIm bulbs may be left in the ground until they become crowded and the flower* are small, or they may be lifted eacli year. The time to lift them is who« the foliage is turning brown, or. it lh« space is needed earlier than this, tin bulbs should be planted close togeth- er in a shallow trench in the back garden until the foliage dies. TIM bulbs should be stored in bags an< kept dry all summer. In the fall, thi large sized ones may be replanted in the border, and the smaller onei planted in a row in the vegetable gap den for a year or two until thei grow to blooming size.
