1 t-vanilla 2 C-boiling water Mix the sugar, flour and salt. Add the square of chocolate and boiling water. Allow to boil four minutes, stirring constantly. Add the butter and vanilla. Serve hot or cold with ice cream. Marshmallow Cake Use any white cake recipe. Bake in gem pans. Cover with White Mountain cream icing. Just before the icing is ready to spread, add quartered marshmallows. Do not add the marshmallows while the icing is hot, as they will melt, and the little "bumps" are attractive when spread on the cake.
CHAPTER XXV BETTINA ENTERTAINS ALICE AND MR. HARRISON
"B
Y the way, Bettina," said Bob, over the phone, "I saw Harrison and asked him out to dinner tonight. He said he was to call on Alice later, so I suggest that you invite her, too." Bettina smiled to herself at Bob's casual tone. Ought she to ask him not to invite company without consulting her? "No!" she decided emphatically. "Company or no company, our meals shall be simple, but good enough for anybody. I'll not change my menu for Alice and Mr. Harrison. I'm sure they'll like it just as it is." "To tell the truth, Bettina," said Alice's vivacious voice over the telephone, "I'd love to come, if it weren't for that—that man!" "But, Alice, you're going to see him later." "I know; worse luck! He's the most insufferable person I know! You see, last night we had a little argument, and he was very rude." "Maybe he's coming to apologize." "Don't you imagine it! He couldn't. He dislikes society girls above all other people." "Oh, Alice!" "Well, he does! He told me so evening before last, out at the park." "Seems to me you're seeing a good deal of him for a man you feel that way about."
