RED CURRANT JELLY
Take 41b. red currants, crush them in a bowl, and put them into a strong cloth and wring out all the juice. When every drop of juice has been extracted, measure out lib of sugar to every pint of liquid, mix together, and boil quickly for about half an hour, skimming it carefully all the time. Test it in the usual way, and when it is jelled put into small jars. HOPE FOR HOUSEWIVES Something is being done to make the world safe and happy for housewives, writes a London correspondent. Does any husband really understand the long-drawn-out drama of the kitchen —the continuous performance of that problem-play known as keeping house? The Women’s Electrical Association, tired of the indifference of men in these vital affairs, hoped to design electric homes for those women whose domestic work is little short of drudgery. Here is a department in which women architects and engineers might well distinguish themselves. With Messrs Gadget and Robot, always willing and never complaining, there is no excuse now for squalor and slavery. On efficiently-run home makes for family felicity. How can a poor wife with several children hope for this millennium? The answer is in the infinite possibilities of scientific service.
