Modern Screen the eggs into the pan and let them cook slowly, very slowly, until they are firm. You ought to spoon some of the butter up over the eggs while they are cooking if you like them sunny-side up, the way I do — but if you like them cooked on both sides this isn't necessary. The really important thing to remember is to cook the eggs so slowly that they don't brown on the bottom." There, boys and girls, is as neat a set of directions for turning out superb fried eggs as ever you'll find. DACON is something else that is hardly ever cooked properly," went on Mr. Ford, now thoroughly warmed up to his topic. "I've cooked bacon over an open fire and had it turn out a whale of a lot better than most of the bacon that I've been served outside of my own home. The trick of making bacon crispy and good is to cook it fairly slowly, and to turn it frequently. The flame shouldn't be quite so low as for eggs, but neither should it be turned on full force." (We think that bacon, to be at its best, should be spread out on brown paper to dry off after it comes out of the pan. This "drying off" process is what we usually refer to as "draining." Blotting paper is the best of all possible draining surfaces — but if you haven't a large quantity of white blotting paper about, crushed brown paper will do nicely.) "How about hot breads — do you like them for your Sunday morning breakfast?" we inquired of Wallace. "Well, I hope to tell you — especially bran muffins and whole wheat toast. And there is a sort of French toast I like, too." We learned from Mrs. Ford that this toast is made by dipping slices of bread into a mixture of one egg beaten with one-half cup of milk. The bread is then fried gently in butter until brown. It is then spread with honey, sprinkled with chopped nuts, cut into sticks or triangles, and served in place of coffeecake or other sweet bread. Incidentally this is an excellent way to use up stale bread. We can't go on to tell you m detail all the things which Mr. Ford said to us about "brunch," because the editor insists on printing other things in his magazine besides our department. So we must content ourself with telling you that among the other things Wallace Ford likes for breakfast are cod-fish cakes — or rather cod-fish balls, for they are round and golden brown — crispy on the outside, and white and fluffy on the inside. Then there are eggs poached in cream and served with tiny crisp sausages; and butterscotch pecan biscuits which taste just too good to be true — but are as easy as rolling off the well known log to make. And last but not least there are those clear, delicious apple slices we were telling you about before. All these really superb breakfast dishes are included in this month's Star Recipe Folder. (Coupon, page 10.) Meanwhile try these recipes for the Bran Muffins and the Souffleed Eggs, so justly popular with Wallace Ford. We are sure your men folks will like them as much as he does. BRAN MUFFINS 1 cup flour 4 teaspoons baking powder Yz teaspoon salt 1 egg Y$ cup brown sugar 24 cup milk J4 cup melted butter 1 cup bran flakes y, cup seedless raisins Sift flour and measure.

The Lure of Hollywood {Continued from page 76) Sylvia Sidney, who had done so marvelously in "Merrily We Go to Hell." At that moment, Joan Crawford, in a wonderful dress which displayed the most perfect figure of all film stars appeared with her husband. Luckily for Mary, though it was after nine, and the invitations had been for seven-thirty, very few guests had come as yet. Hollywood stars usually arrive at the very least two hours late. (That is why, perhaps, they are invited early!) This gave Mary a chance for a few words with Joan of the great, tragic eyes and brilliant, happy smile. "I wonder if it would amuse Miss Moore to go to the Breakfast Club?" suggested young Doug. 114
