' Today is April first—just the
day to fool. the family—with a
surprise menu. It will by-a'picas-
arit. surprise, Of course, because
it, features "a main course that’s
aljnost sure to be something your
family hasn’t sampled before. Yet,
it’s inexpensive, easy to prepare
—and different. It’s-a favorite
dish of the Finnish people and the,
Finnish name for it is so diffi-
cult to pronounce that we-’fe not"
even going* to attempt it. But
translated, it means baked her-
ring and potatoes.
To serve six people, youUI need
these ingredients: one pound salt
herring, 12 .potatoes, two onions,
two slices salt pork, white pepper,
tvjjo tablespoons flour, two cups
milk, two tablespoons butter ami
two tablespoons bread crumbs.
Soak the herring overnight,
drain, rinse and remove the head,
tail, skin and hones. Cut the fil-
let* in one-inch pieces.
Wash the potatoes, pare them
and cut in thin slices. Wash the
onions, skitj and slice, Cut the
salt pork into small cubes.
Then fill a greased baking* dish
with alternate layers of potatoes,
pork, herring and onions. Season
each layer with pepper; make the
bottom and top layers of potatoes.
Stir the flour into a little cold
milk, then mix with the rest.of
the milk. Pour over , the potato
mixture. It should just cover the
top. Add dabs of butter. Sprinkle
crumbs pver all, and bake in a
moderate oven—325 degrees Fah-
renheit-one and one-half hours.
With it serve cooked red cab-
bage, using either fresh or can-
ned cabbage.
You mav work, the surprise ele-
ment into the salad, too, by using
whole tomatpes that have been
skinned and hollowed. Use a fill-
ing that will be new .to your fam-
ily. Try a mixture of chopped
celery, walnut meats, • pineapple
and mayonnaise. Or serve toma-
toes filled with aspic. Eggs and
olives make a good combination
and so do eggs and anchovies. Or
perhaps you can figure Out a good
one yourself.
For dessert we suggest tarts
using" different fruit fillings. No
member of the family will be able
to tell which kipd he’s getting un-
til he bites into it. But since all
fruit fillings are mighty tasty it
will be a nice surprise, and no
one will mind being fooled.

Buy wisely when you buy mat-

The Metropolitan Opera of New
York is very dear to the heart of
Mrs. August Belmont of Man-
hattan. She is the founder and
president emeritus of the Metro-
politan Opera Guild. And at 70
years of age she is still one of its
most active members. The Guild
raises money to meet the deficits
of an opera season. She explain*
that opera is an expensive enter-
prise that cannot pay its way just
by the sale of seats. As she puts
it: “Opera hasn't paid for itself
anywhere in the world.”
The idea for the Opera Guild
was worked out by Mrs. Belmont
after a financial crisis at the Met-
ropolitan in 1934. At that time,
she was on the board of directors,
the first woman to be elected to
that body. That season, the opera
had lost so much money there was
talk of closing up the opera for
good. Then Mrs. Belmont submit-
ted a plan that was the founda-
tion for the Guild she organized
a few months later. The plan Was
a membership drive for contribu-
tor*. The new members were given,
the privilege of attending reheat-
sals of the operas..
Today the Guild is a sound or-
ganization of some 40-thousand
members. Right now it is raising
