SOUP’S ON!
tered croutons,
Soups may be a substantial addi
tion to a rather lean menu, or a
distinctive touch to a dinner de luxe,
for they vary all the way from the
thin, clear, delicate consommes and
bouillons to the hearty chowders and
satisfying cream soups.
Economical, tasty, nutritious—
what more could you ask of a dish
so versatile? Make soup the main
stay of a family lunch or supper or
the perfect beginning for a “com
pany” dinner.
A little “dressing up” can play
fairy godmother to the plainest dish
-yes; even soup.
Most people eat
with their eyes,
first of alL So,
if you wish your
soups to take on
a party air, gar
nish them entic
ingly. Try sprin-
kling with but-
chopped parsley,
a few grains of popcorn, toasted
puffed cereals, minced chives, a
dash of paprika, or a few tiny round
crackers; or place a spoonful of
whipped cream in the center.
| For extra goodness, why not try
cheese in soup? It will draw a big
atamp of approval, as you will see
'if you try Potato Cheese Soup.
Here’s the recipe:

3 medium sized potatoes

der but not browned. Add the po-

LYNN SAYS:
The water in which vegetables
have been cooked, and left-over
coeked vegetables may often be
utilized in making excellent
soups.
Minute tapioca, because of its
thickening quality and attractive
translucence, makes an excellent
thickener.
Once thickened to the desired
consistency, cream soups should
be kept warm over hot water.
Evaporation caused by additional
cooking may make them thick
and pasty.

Private Papers
Of a Cub Reporter:
His name is Capt. Jean Georges
D’Ary of the French air force dur
ing World War I and up to the
time France quit . . . He refused to
surrender and left France before the
Nazis came—escaping to Lisbon . . .
There he felt sure the British consu
late would help him return to Brit
ain so he could fly again for Eng
land . . . But something went wrong
. . . The consulate was busy or
something, and he managed to get
to Martinique on a freighter . ..
When Captain D’Ary was tipped that
the Martinique regime was plan
ning to ship him back to France as
a fugitive, he escaped to a port in
the U. S. ... “I am in a sympa
thetic country,” he mused, “I will
not live under shadows. I will tell
everything to the authorities” . . .
And he did, adding: “Please deport
me, but deport me to Canada, so I
can get to England and help fight
again” . . . The man in charge
said: “Why, this is against the law!”
And he was jailed . . . Some of us
read about it in the papers . . .
Some of us appealed to Washington
. . . “If he is deported to Marti
nique he will be shot!” we explained
... On the morning he was to
be returned to Martinique came a
telegram: “Deport D’Ary,” it said,
“to Canada.”
The Other Week-end The Second
Bomb Wing from Langley Field,
Va., flew 30 bombers to Miami un
der command of Gen. A. Krogstad
. . . On the way, one of the bomb
ers lost its elevator and started hav
ing other trouble . . . The general
ordered the men in the plane to bail
out . . . “You never saw six men
jump so quickly. In less than six
seconds!”
The two pilots, however, decided
not to jump, and with expert han
dling brought the bomber down
without mishap to it or themselves
. . . We found out why they refused
to jump . . . That morning both had
squandered $12 each on two silk
shirts which they were wearing . . .
“We realized,” said one of the boys,
“that if we bailed out—those shirts
were sure to get dirty.”
Notes of an
Innocent Bystander:
The Story Tellers: The Commy
Charlie McCarthys over here keep
bragging there’s no unemployment
in Stalin’s kingdom. Freda Utley,
who had six years of the Soviet,
tells why in the Atlantic Monthly:
“There is no unemployment pay or
poor relief; unemployment in the So
viet Union has been liquidated by
the simple device of liquidating the
unemployed, who must starve to
death” . . . Joseph Harrington’s
piece in Cosmopolitan begins: “I
think newspaper people are crazy.
I mean goofy. The screwiest peo
ple I ever met” ... In American
Magazine E. Lehman and D. Brown
collab on “Hack Writer,” which in
dicates the authors are hardly . . .
The new mag for men is dickering
with three titles: “Sir,” “Swank”
and “Beau Brummel,” when the
last mentioned tells the story! . . .
E. Hemingway, Look reports, is go
ing to give some of his “For Whom
the Bell Tolls” royalties to China.
The dough came out of the fight for
Democracy, he figures, and some of
it is going back in.
The Front Pages: Just what got
Heywood Broun fired from the World
is cleared up in a book of his col
umns collected by the younger Hey
wood. It wasn’t his Sacco-Vanzetti
pieces, as most of us thought. It
was a piece done a year later for
the Nation, which accused the World
of lacking moxie . . . Ray Brock, a
new by-line to these orbs, turned in
exciting news from Belgrade to the
Times—when the uprising started
... It wasn’t so many weeks ago
that Mussolini was quoted as boast
ing: “I am not a man—I am an
event!” . . . Tsk-tsk . . . Remem
ber how the experts told us that
March would be the month when
Adolf went to town? Well, March
has done come and gawn, as the
saying goes down South . . . Boom
erang Dep’t: A1 Williams, the mili
tary “expert,” recently wrote 3 book
in which he predicted that the Fas
cist air force would knock the Brit
ish out of the Mediterranean.
Typewriter Ribbons: The Thom-
aston, Ga., Times’: Don’t risk your
eyesight by looking straight at the
sun, or your illusions by looking
straight at a friend . . . Olin Mil
ler’s: Uncle Sam is so busy watch
ing the wolves in Europe he can’t
see the rats at home . . . Balzac’s:
A husband should always know what
is the matter with his wife, for she
always knows what is not.
The Wireless: Dorothy Thompson
Included a memo to Hitler the Hun.
A countryman of his, she warned,
who also made a hobby of slaugh
ter, lies buried in Jugoslavia. His
name was Attila . . . Jose Morand
(if that’s the spelling) comes at you
with Latin - American musicking
these midnights. It’s soothing, which
is the way it ought to be late at
night, when you’re too tired to fight
back at the brasses . . . You have
to be a frenzied baseball fan to get
much oat of the broadcasts of thp
exhibition games.
