Apple-Flavored Gelatini Every day brings some new food prod- uct for testing to our taste-test kitchen. This week we especially liked the new prepared apple- flavored gelatin. Served plain. it is refreshing; a good fatigue-lift. without too many calories. about four in the afternoon. With ban- anas added and served with whin- ped cream. it steps into the gour- met class of desserts.

Banana-Apple Gelatin: Make up 1 pkg. apple-flavored gelatin ac- cording to directions on the label. Refrigerate until beginning to thicken. Then stir in 1 thin-sliced peeled bananas. and continue to refrigerate until firm enough to slice. Serve plain or with a whip- ped iopplnl. '

Now that byroads and lanes have come by the miry conditions natural to one period of Island Qring. the horizons of our world have broadened considerably. In plong the hilltop come the cars of those who contribute an inter- esting share at linking this farm with farther places: the mech- inery salesman saying to these farmers. by circumstance and In- clination mostly canny where new buyings are concerned: "What you should have-you got a fair-sized farm. is one of our this-year's . . .

KEEP IN TRIM

Small wonder the slim waist is fashion's darling it's young at any age. Moreover. a slim waist makes for flexibility and ease of motion.

The.waist loses its clearly de- fined line when we fall to turn. bend and stretch enough to keep the waist hugging muscles toned. Since soft muscles invite fat. the waist is a favorite parking spot for excess calories. "Gone to waist” applies to all figures, tall or shovt. But alas. it's its short- waisted gals who are really on the spot. The less the span between the floating rib and the top of the hip bone, the more the pounds bunch up. The five added pounds the long stemmed damsels take

Pull the midrifi out long with stretch- ing. and keep slim and supple with side-bending. Standing with feet wide apart. s-i-r-e-t-c-h up . . . pulling slim all through the middle measure- ment. Aim to pull the waist up away from the hips. and the rib- cage away from the waist. Hold- ing the upstretch through the middle, bend down and touch fing- ers to floor at side of foot. Come back up. again pull slim through the midriff. and bend to the other side. touching fingers in floor. This exercise movement is slim- ming snd limbering . . . provid- ed you hold the upstretch through the middle as you bend. Repeat 6 times. later more. The following exercise affords a gentle waist twist. Lying on back on floor; liend knees and keep soles of feet flat on floor.

Now. keeping knees together. twist gently at the waist. until thigh in resting on floor . . . return to position. again pull up strongly with girdle mun- clas and twist to opposite side.

Even the youngest children will welcome a salad that is well blended and properly dressed. The dressing is not the subject of this discussion, how- ever, it seeks to point out the variety of salad leaves which can be easily grown in any home garden, and made available all summer. ,

Leaf lettuce is preferred by most chefs over head lettuce for salads. It is also far richer in vitamins. It comes in two types -the butter leaves. and the crisp leaves. The butter leaves are thicker. and darker green, with finer flavor, the experts say. Crisp leaves are lighter green is color, thin and somewhat brit- tie. Examples are Black Seeded butter type, and Grand Rapids, a crisp leaf type. Experts give first place in their esteem to the butter leaves.

Leaf crops grown in a similar manner. and much esteemed in bowl salads, include corn salad, which is very hardy and can be

In the fall lettuce may be grown again; and the Chinese cabbage leaves are delicious. Chinese cabbage may be grown in the spring. with rich soil and an early start.

It is impossible to reason with Ann: many have tried: and she gets angry and won't listen.

Ann won't go to a psychiatrist; it might help. She in just a sel- fish person and has no boy friends. And Jase never goes out unlena Ann does, which isn't often.

DEAR R.

Who says this! - Jane herself. or one of the sisters? Your report isn't clear.

If Jane is intimidated by Ann'a tantrums, then she couldn't make good in marriage to you, no mat ter how much she may need and value your devotion, and no mat- ter how fine your attitude and character may be. If you marry Jane. the daughter will be an is- tegral part of the package you get - and if you should try to be- come the stern law-giver in rela- tion to Ann. theoretically to spare Jane, you'd simply be making life worse for her.
