THE PER/NS JOURNAL
For All Women
A Nation-Wide Cooking Contest
Winners to Get Cash Pries and Free Trip to New York
OUSEWIVES, here's your
chance for a free trip to New
York and valuable cash prizes!
A sea of recipes is about to sweep
over the whole face of the United
States and the national avoirdu-
pois is threatened with a definite
increase. This sea of recipes will
emanate from the Women's Na-
tional Recipe Competition to be
held under the auspices of the
Fifteenth Annual Women's Na-
tional Exposition of Arts and In-
dustries which is to be held in the
Grand Central Palace in New
York City from May 23 to May 29.
The purpose of the competition
is to develop the greatest possible
number of menus consisting of
foods prepared from canned pro-
ducts, to the end that a book may
ultimately be published which will
enable the housewife to prepare a
complete dinner from the supplies
carried on her pantry shelves.
Six Sectional Winners
This contest is open to women
and girls over sixteen years of
age anywhere in the United
States. Each contestant may sub-
mlt as many complete menus as
she wants, but all entries must
be postmarked not later than
midnight, May 17.
There must be six recipes, each
sufficient to serve from four to
six persons, furnished with each
menu. For the purposes of this
competition the country has been
divided lnto six large sections,
and a three-day trip to New York
with all expenses paid will be
awarded to the winner of each
section.
Decision In May
The six sectional winners, who
will be notified by telegraph of
their victories, will compete for
cash prizes of $500, $250, $200,
$150 and two of $100 on May 25
during the National Exposition
at the Grand Central Palace, New
York. Thus each sectional wln-
ner is assured of a cash prize of
at least $100 as well as the free
trip to New York City. At this
final contest the six finalists must
prepare their prize.winning menus
and recipes, and the winner will
be awarded the proud title of
1936 National Champio of the
Women's Exposition Cooking Con-
test.
Full information can be ob-
tained about this competition by
writing to the Fifteenth Annual
Women's National Exposition of
Arts and Industries, Grand Cen-
tral Palace, 480 Lexington Ave-
nue, New York.
A Social Affair
The committee of socially prom-
inent women in charge of th
competition includes among oth-
ers Mrs. Oliver Harriman, Mrs,
Adrian Iselin If, Mrs. Winthrop
McKim, Mrs. Barber Larocque0
Mrs. Kenneth Castleman and
Madame Queena Marie. At their
instance, women's clubs, Campfire
Girls, Girls Friendly Societies and
others are actively participating
by aiding in the distribution of
rules blanks to their friends and
neighbors.
Those who desire may secure
their blanks from their local chain
or grocery store. If, by chance,
your favorite store does not have
blanks, the committee will gladly
send you one.
All For Women
The Women's National Expo-
sition of Arts and Industries has
functioned for fifteen years for
the purpose of advancing the in-
terests of women, financial and
otherwise, but it seems to have
no regard for the masculine waist-
line. However, the way to a man's
heart is said to be through his
stomach, and perhaps this is all a
gigantic Leap Year conspiracy to
advance the interests-of women
in one of these "otherwise" ways. •
