I HAVE found a stare-fire method
of dictating business letters to
my secretary. I simply lock my
office door, chain her to a desk,
take the telephone off the hook,
and stuff cotton in my ears.
There is a sound and practical
reason for each of these practices,
but I don’t think it would work for
most office people because my
secretary (after much work upon
my part) is thoroughly convinced
she couldn’t get a job elsewhere if
she tried and that if she did try I
would murder her before she got
out of the building.
But to get back to the reasons
I take such drastic steps when I
am about to take care of my corre
spondence:
1. I lock the door to keep out the
office gossip who invariably in
trudes by sticking her head in the
doorway and making some remark
like: “Isabelle, honey, pull your
skirt down.”
It’s distracting!
2. I chain her to the desk be
cause she wastes pencils if I
don’t. In a half an hour session
she will jump up fifteen times to
sharpen fifteen different pencils
Now I let her chew the ends.
3. I take the telephone off the
hook not to delay business calls,
but so I won’t have to listen to her
conversations with her husband. It
wouldn’t be so bad if I could hear
what he says, but her remarks fill
me with so much curiosity I can’t
concentrate. I can’t figure out
which one is the moron.
4. And 1 stuff my ears with cot
ton so I can’t hear her catty re
marks about this column or some
of my letters. Once I was dictating
a letter to a nationally-known col
umnist when she up and says,
“Gee, “My Pet Peeve” wasn’t, up
to par last week, Mr. B."
I must have exploded because an
unflattering remark slipped into
my dictation. As a result the col
umnist cancelled his contract with
>ur syndicate and the boss has
'een unhappy with me every since
A LTHOUGH pickles are fre
quently made in crocks, it’s
better to pack them In sterilized
glass jars to prevent any possible
chance of spoilage.
Pickles which are exposed above

content, the pickle may darken.
For best results, obtain soft water
when you make pickles.
Using a large amount of alum in
making pickles crisp is to be dis
couraged. Crispness may be as
sured by more natural means such
as using a good cider vinegar, min
eral-free water, quality salt, pepper
and spices. Always follow exact
directions given in a reputable
recipe.
Hollow pickles are caused by
using faulty cucumbers. '
