- This Week’s Cover — Now then, let all the pot-and-pan scholars study carefully the somewhat ill expression on Miss Home Ecs, the instructor. Experience is a better teacher than cookbooks, and therefore it is well for women to encounter and adjust to grimaces of horror in preparatory school, rather than run into them for the first time on the map of a trusting husband. The future of this little blond is hard to figure, though; she’ll get a husband all right, but if she cooks like this he’ll drive him to drink. Maybe, thinking this class will teach her to get a man rich enough so she can hire the girl behind her for a housekeeper. Alajá! doesn’t know what that stuff in the pot is, and neither does the instructor. The lass has been popping corn in pea soup, we’d say.
