When we came to New York our friends said, ‘Why dont you live in a hotel ? — it would be so much less responsibility.’
But I did not care to live that way. There is so much strain and stress with my work, I want a real home where I can relax and do anything I want to.”

“To boil a ham : Put the ham to cook in boiling water with the skin side down, and keep simmering until tender. Allow about twenty minutes’ cooking to each pound.

“Be sure to serve the ham whole,” concluded Miss Bayne, “and in carving see that you have a sharp knife.”
The salad dressing recently mixed by Rosemary Theby for a small party held in her dressing-room consisted of a thick mayonnaise into which had been pressed, thru a fine strainer, the pulp of several pimentoes. The mayonnaise was the color of deep coral and had a delicate flavor that completely mystified Miss Theby’s guests. It masked a salad of cauliflower and chopped celery.
