The story of her long. full years. described in "family circle" gives her philosophy. Here are some' of the highlights. . .She has always considered the best time of life - the moment.

Adventure

By Ida Jenn Kain The years need not make us old. just another way of living this

moment. Sciclicc has given us I gift of nearly 20 extra years of

life. The best possible use we can make of those bonus years is to insert them into the very years we are living right now. For some 50 million people. right now is that elastic period known as middle age -- from 40 to 70.

Let's do some mental push-ups. To take advantage of these bonus years. we have to keep pace in our thinking. In this enlightened day. we should not expect aches and ailments, or look upon them as normal and inevitable. Re- search shows they are not. The best tonic is to get out of the rut of thinking we are "getting along"

Birthdays to the contrary, it is certainly truc that middle pgc and old age are not the same time of life for everyone. it's I fact that we do not all age at the same rate. some folks are old at 40.

Tips On How To Prevent Pancakes From Sticking

if you have this difficulty, sim- ply add to your pancake batter a small quantity of melted shorten-

oil is idealt. Add about two table- spoons of melted or liquid shorten- ing to the standard recipe for mak- ing I4 to 16 pancakes. You'll find that it makes your pancakes easy to lift from the griddle without sticking

And here's another tip. Don't be in too much of a hurry to turn your pancakes. If you try to turn them before they are ready, the

batter will stick to your spatula and to the griddle. After bubbles have appeared on the top of the uancake, gently insert the spatula underneath. If the spatula does not move freely under the pancake, withdraw and allow the pancake to cook until it can be turned freely.

Don't scour your griddle before you make pancakes. If you have scoured your griddle. use wax paper to rub on some shortening. When the griddle is heated, this should help season it.

Another tip is heat your griddle to the right temperature -38!) deg- rees F. On a regular griddle you have no means of checking this temperature. but here is a test which works out very well: A drop of water poured on the heated griddle should bounce for a mom- ent bcfore dissolving in steam. If it turns to steam instantly the griddle is too hot. If it stays more than I second before going up in

When making your pancake bat- ter by mixing a ready prepared pancake mix and milk, don't worry about beating all the small lumps out of the batter. Leave thcm in- you'll get lighter pancakes.

Many people like to add one or more eggs to the pancake batter. German people. for instance. make a special egg pancake. This is a huge pancake which fills the whole griddle.

Nigerian Women Jolied By Queen's

Simple Grooming

IBADAN. Nigeria (AP) -- The Queen's restrained grooming has jolted Nigeria's mayfair. where dusky beauties parade in klngsize gold ornaments and apply their face powder with a ladle.

The royal visit has touched off a spate of lectures in fashion col- umns of the Nigerian press.

"All of us who are particular about fashion will have something to copy from the Queen," said I woman writer in the Ibadan Trib- une.

"Let us watch the style and sult- ability of her dress.

"Let us see how nicely she does her hair and applies makeup."

"Adora" of the Lagos Times was more blunt.

"How would I distinguished African woman, not even a queen, have landed at lkeja airport?" she asked.

"l'il dare tell you.

"On every other finger there would be at least two gold rings.

"Around the neck would be rows and rows of gold beads.

"To crown all there would be I long gold chain almost touchinbt the knees.

"That is not all.

"On the blouse there woud be two large brooches, each vying with the other for place.

"On the ears woud be large ear- rings practically tearing the ears

"Around the wrists there also would be one or two gold brace- lets.
