Texas Flower
The bluebonnet, official flower of
Texas, was earlier called buffalo
clover, wolfflower, and the "rab
bit”—“el conejo”—the last because
of the white tip’s resemblance to
a rabbit’s tail. It was given its
present name because it suggests
a woman’s sunbonnet.

PRIVATE PURKET SYMPATHIZES
WITH THE HOME FRONT
Dear Mom.—Well I heard on the
radio a broadcast of news from the
United States and it made me al
most as much worried about you
and dad as you are about me. About
the only big difference between me
and you now is that you can talk
back. Bilt you got to lissen to just
as many orders as me I gess.
* * *
Remember away back, mom,
when you was just worried that I
would not have enough comforts in
the army and when you was always
so afraid I would not be able to keep
warm? Gee I never thought I wood
be worried over you for the same
reasons, mom.
* • *
I gess them rules about jallopies
is making it hard for you, although
I know you ain’t the kind to squawk.
I hear you can’t use the flivver for
nothing now except in case of sick
ness, but I bet the rules make pop
sick enough to have a good alibi if
he decides to take a ride. I seen
one rule which says it is okay to
drive a sick dog to a dog hospital
and on account of I know what a
little fresh air means to you, mom,
I wish pop wood pick up a dog what
did not look two healthy and take
you out for a little ride once a week.
* * *
It looks to me like between
reading automobile rules, check
ing tire numbers, doping out new
rashuning systems, trying to
keep warm, and keeping track
of new rulings on what you can
eat, mom, you ain’t having no
picnic. Bpt cheer up, mom. Your
troubles make me sorer at the
Axis than ever and I will fight
harder to break up this war
now.
• • •
I am well and strong if a little
muddy. I wood feel better if I knew
who was on the level over here
and who was not. Some French
man is double-crossing some other
Frenchman or vices versa every few
minutes and I gess General Eisen
hower isi having a time straightening
out the line-up. Every day some
body else is arrested for trying to
run the wrong way with the ball.
* • •
Well, I see there’s a ruling you
can not send me no more packages
unless I ask for them and get the
brasshats to okay it which makes me
sore. It makes me feel silly making
out a list of things I wood like and
reading it to a officer like I was ask
ing Santa Claus for some presents.
* • *
The brasshat I wood have to ask
is a sourpuss. He wood not okay
nothing for me so I am going to tell
him I want a player-piano, a barrel
of beer, catcher’s mitt and a polo
pony from my folks. I got nothing
to lose.
Love,
Oscar.

TIP TO SQUAWKERS
(“Five sons of Mr. and Mrs. Thom
as F. Sullivan of Waterloo, Iowa,
were lost on the cruiser Juneau.”—
News item.)
Kickin’ about your rations?
Squawkin’ about the bans?
Fussin’ about the gas rules? . . .
Think of the Sullivans!
Blue on account of edicts?
Yellin’ of more ahead?
What of that Western home where
Five of the group are dead?
Beefin’ of sacrifices?
Yawpin’ about the costs?—
Think of the home where parents
Mourn for their five boys lost!

“The used-car dealers, admitting
that many autoists had called about
selling their autos, said that they
wanted fortunes for them.”—News
item.
In the mind of a used-car dealer
this means that a man trying to sell
a 1941 sedan probably wants some,
thing a little above $108.
* * *
An OPA official announces that
baloney will soon be but a memory.
Well, we just don’t believe it. You
can deprive us of a lot of things, but
you wUl have the united opposition
of the entire congress when you try
to limit baloney.
• • •
“Meat of some kind and an un
specified amount of substitute, in
cluding soybeans,” will be used, says
one OPA man. Well, we don’t know
much about the soybean. But some
how or other we feel the same about
a soybean hot dog as we would about
a turnip-hamburger.

Hitler seems to be ignoring the
slogan about never changing generals
in mid-dream.
* • •
Elmer Twitchell says a soldier in
this war has to be between 18 and
25 in order to stand all the changes
of climate.
* • •
Well, the ban on automobiling cer
tainly gives the last laugh to the
fellow who always said the auto
hadn’t come to stay.

The WPB has decreed a cut of 50
per cent in the nationwide produc
tion of ice cream.
Another blow at the war effort. It
means less work on “sundaes.”
Warm Welcome!
These are days when families are
divided and diminished, and there
comes the urge to
say to the neigh
bor, come take
“pot-luck” supper
with us. Thus,
your neighbor will
bring over some
salad and muffins
and herself and
the youngster, you can make a main
dish and dessert, and have company
with it besides!
It’s heart-warming to visit, too,
and have someone to help with the
meal if your once-big family is
somewhat reduced. Most people wel
come a visit now and then with just
one of the ordinary meals—and pot-
luck is the perfect answer.
Your first must-not with pot-luck
is do not fuss. Just get together on
who is to bring what—and have what
you ordinarily would have. Your
plans need not be made with cam
paign-like precision, simply do it on
the spur of the moment, since this
makes for spontaneity.
Let’s take it easy on meat with
some grand casserole dishes—includ
ing this on shrimp and crabmeat
with a crisp, corn-flake crust:
*Baked Shrimp Salad.
(Serves 6 to 8)
!/• cup chopped green pepper
Vi cup minced onion
1 cup chopped celery
1 cup cooked crabmeat, flaked
1 cup cooked shrimp, cleaned
1 cup mayonnaise
Vi teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
2 cups corn flakes
Vi cup butter
Combine all ingredients and mix
well together. Place in individual
shell dishes or one large casserole.
Cover with crushed corn flakes, dot
with butter, and sprinkle paprika
over top. BakeMn a moderate oven
(350 degrees) about 30 minutes.
Serve with lemon.
Spaghetti’s a fine dish to serve at
pot luck. Should hamburger sup
plies be low, try some of Sunday’s
leftover chicken in the sauce:
Spaghetti With Chicken.
(Serves 6 to 8)
1 8-ounce package spaghetti
1 onion, cut fine
1 small clove garlic
2 tablespoons fat
214 cups cooked tomatoes
Salt and pepper
1 tablespoon sugar
Dash of cayenne
1 cup diced, cooked chicken
Vi cup grated cheese
1 cup mushrooms, sauteed
Cook spaghetti in boiling salted
Water until tender. Drain and place
in a greased cas
serole. Saute on
ion and garlic in
hot fat until ten
der but do not
brown. Add toma
toes, salt, pepper,
sugar and cay
enne. Heat to boiling, then add
Lynn Says:
No Waste, No Want: Rationing
and decreased supplies of food
have diminished our leftover
problem, but not entirely done
I away with it. That’s why I’m
j passing on these thoughts of
what-to-do:
Use cooked meat or fish sea
soned and moistened with cream
in between the omelet. Vegeta
bles, put through a sieve mois
tened with cream, butter or gra
vy are good, too.
Stewed tomatoes go together
with scrambled eggs. Especially
nice is a rating scrambled eggs
get with minced tongue, chicken
or ham. Use them if you only
have a half a cupful.
Sweeten fruit juices with sugar
and thicken with one tablespoon
of cornstarch. Yes, mighty good
on hot puddings—cottage, apple,
or brown betty puddings!

chicken, mushrooms, and pour over
spaghetti. Toss with fork and sprin
kle with grated cheese. Bake in a
moderate (350-degree) oven about
30 minutes.
For ease in serving, and ease on
your budget serve your salad course
with the hot bread and skip dessert!
It’s a smart and simple note in
budget suppers:
♦Wilshire Salad.
(Serves 8)
1 head lettuce or romaine
4 slices pineapple
1 grapefruit, peeled and sectioned
1 red apple, sliced
Vi pound grapes, cleaned
1 orange peeled and sectioned
Mayonnaise
Line salad bowl with lettuce or
romaine. Arrange fruit in an order
ly but pretty pattern, alternating
slices of pineapple with apple, and
orange sections with grppefruit.
Sprinkle halved grapes (seeded)
over whole of bowl, or place clus
ters of grapes among other fruit.
Serve with mayonnaise.
You can take the B-r-r-r- out of
winter by serving a delicious hot
bread that breaks open like a twink
and when spread with butter is the
answer to perfection!
Apple-Walnut Muffins.
(Makes 12 medium)
2 cups sifted flour
3 teaspoons baking powder
Vi teaspoon salt
Vi teaspoon cinnamon
3 tablespoons sugar
1 egg, well beaten
1 cup milk
3 tablespoons mild salad oil

into greased muf
fin tins, filling %

(425-degree) oven
for 20 to 30 min
utes, according to
the size of the muffins.
It’s a pleasure to bring freshly
baked bread to the table because
it’s a sign you have gone to the
trouble of trying to make the meal
as good as possible. You’ll like the
following nut bread both for table
or lunch-box use.
If you’re using this bread for the
lunchbox, slice it thinly, spread with
cream cheese, blended with apple
sauce, or cream cheese with crisply
fried, drained and crumbled bacon.
Brazil Nut Quick Bread.
(Makes 1 5-by-9-inch loaf)
3 cups flour
4 teaspoons baking powder
Vt cup sugar
1 cup chopped Brazil nuts
1 egg
1!4 cups milk
3 tablespoons melted shortening
Sift dry ingredients together, add
nuts. Beat egg, add milk and short
ening. Stir quickly into dry ingredi
ents. Pour into a greased loaf pan
and bake in a moderate (350-degree)
oven 1 hour.

XT EW YORK.—Having shown how
• to draft the weather for the
duration of this biggest war, F. N.
Reichelderfer is tendered a nice
He Holds Weather recent amiu-
As Important as al dinner in
Terrain in War N ew T Y°rk
the Institute
of Aeronautical Sciences handed
him the Losey Sword for outstand
ing contributions to the science of
meteorology.
Weather is war’s most uncer
tain factor. Not even the great
captains froip Belisarius on to
Stonewall Jackson (and Timo
shenko) could win if it blew too
hard against them. And it is the
belief of Reichelderfer that tac
ticians take it too little into ac
count. Chief, now, of the United
States weather bureau, he would
have a weather forecaster witb
every naval and military unit on
its own. There aren’t enough
military forecasters for this,
yet, but Reichelderfer is button
holing all the generals and ad
mirals.
Forty-seven years old, the bureau
chief is sharp-nosed, lean, baldisb
and square-chinned. By the time
he had a science degree from North
western university he was sure
weather was his dish, and he did
extra studying in Norway. The navy
got him in 1918 and for 20 years he
was about its most weatherwise of
ficer . . . aviator, aerologist and
finally commander. He spent a lot
of time at the naval air station
in Lakehurst, N. J., until he quit
the service for the bureau.
He is married and has a son.
After years of wisecracks from dis
appointed picnickers he understands
the risks of prophecy. “I doubt,”
he said a while back, “if many
knot* how brave the weather fore
caster is who steps up to a survey
xpap and makes a forecast for to
morrow.” When the fate of a battle
hangs on the forecast you can bet
your bottom dollar he is brave.
T HERE is a little (well, not too
big!) smoke-filled (sometimes)
room off the senate chamber in
Washington where politicians axe
Lawmakers Chech this* year as
Shooting Irons at they have
Col. Halseys Door these 0 , tei
past. So far,
however, no one has charged against
it the sinister schemes layed to the
traditional smoke-filled little room
where politicians gather. It is the
office of Col. Edwin A. Halsey, just
confirmed as secretary of the sen
ate for his tenth term.
A senate secretary is supposed to
tote up the senate’s bills and see
that they are paid, even to the bill
for the polish put on the vice presi
dent’s official automobile. He is
supposed also to disburse salaries,
supervise the printing of legis
lative bills and keep all records.
Colonel Halsey does these
things but he also serves as a
suave broad-shouldered steering
committee of one for new mem
bers and as a friendly confident
for new and old. He worked np
to his present job from T bot
tom start. A page boy in 1897
when a senator-uncle beckoned
him off a Virginia farm, he was
a master of pages and an as
sistant sergeant-of-arms before
reaching his present pleasant
singularity. (
Report has it that very neat inter-
party shennanigans are figured out
in the colonel’s office for it is a
neutral ground on which Democrats
and Republicans meet unarmed.
About this, however, no outsider can
say for sure because matters dis
cussed there are not tipped off else
where. Except, perhaps, some in
nocent bit of senate history. The
secretary carried a vast store of
that between his ears. And, ef
course, the secretary’s golf score.
Like any golfer, he will talk of that
till kingdom come.
