Omelet Recipes 



Continuod from page 4. column 2 

 yolks in a small bowl with a Dower egg 

 beater until thick and lemon-colored, add 

 salt, pepper and water. Beat whites on a 

 large platter with a wire egg beater. Pour 

 the yolks over them and carefully fold un- 

 til the mixture is blended. Melt butter 

 in an omelet pan and pour in the mixture. 

 Spread evenly, place on range where it 

 will cook slowly for 15 minutes. The last 

 minute the fire may be raised to brown 

 the bottom. Place in a hot oven a few 

 minutes to cook the top. When it is firm 

 to the touch the omelet is done. Crease 

 across the top and fold. Serve at once. 

 Grated cheese, minced ham, or jelly 

 may be placed on the omelet before it is 

 folded.

A Home In A Garden 



With appreciation to Professor Waugh 



and to Farm and Home Week, 



Amherst, Mass., July 24-27, 1928 



I would place my home in a garden, 

 A garden .so wondrously fair 



That friends might deem it a privilege 

 To visit and neighbor there. 



I would look from my kitchen window. 

 Glimpse chairs and a table or two. 



Awaiting the family supper, 



At evening when day's work is through. 



The birds I would tempt to my garden. 



And frisky squirrels, too; 

 Pansies among the flag-stones. 



Wet with the morning dew. 



A pool I would build in my garden. 

 Where a baby might tumbel in, 



Knowing that mother was near her 

 To hold up a dimpled chin. 



Laughter I'd have in my garden, 

 Coming from girls and from boys; 



Pets, and a place to dig in. 



Takes the place of breakable toys. 



I would make this a liveable garden. 

 With a clothes line if need be, you know. 



I'd fill every corner with flowers. 



And I'd have here the trees to grow. 



A little white fence with the gate flung 

 wide. 

 Deep of myself I would give, 

 So, I'd snuggle my home in a garden, 

 There I'd neighbor, and love, and live.

Regret 



Through fear of taking risks in life 



I've missed a lot of fun — 

 The only things that I regret 



Are those I haven't done. 



— Cheerful Cherub. 



My Acts 



I will not let my grievous past 

 With vain remorse torment me 



I can't help feeling that my acts 

 Don't really represent me. 



— Cheerful Cherub. 



The basis of many kinds of rouge, ac- 

 cording to chemical tests, is an iron com- 

 pound. 



Why not let Dame Nature paint your 

 cheeks from within? 



She can do it with these: 

 Liver Whole wheat bread 



Eggs Beans

PROTECTING BABY FROM 



DISEASES IN WINTER 



Summer used to be the hardest time 

 for babies. Mothers have now learned so 

 much about the care and feeding of their 

 infants that the intestinal disturbances 

 of hot weather have practically gone out 

 of style. 



Winter now presents the greater dan- 

 ger. 



Feed the baby properly, being sure that 

 he has orange and cod liver oil daily. 



Keep the house well ventilated and take 

 the baby into the fresh air and sunlight 

 as much as the weather permits. 



Give him a midday nap. 



Dress him according to the temperature, 

 not according to the season. 



Give him a cool sponge bath and a 

 vigorous rub every morning. 



Keep him away from every one who 

 has a cold or other respiratory infection.
