Br MRS. M. A. WILSON
MACARONI is considered by the
general public to be typical an.l
peculiar to the Italians. Italy is en
titled to the credit for the curly
appreciation of this delectable wheat
product History credits the inven
tion of macaroni to the Chinese.
From these folk the Italians soon
learned to make these .paste, and
then adopted them as their national
dish. The products are made from
wheat and arc known as spaghetti
and macaroni.
History also tells us that by uic
time the fourteenth century rolled ,

uct and that they kept the trade

Macaroni is to the Italian cook
the starchy content of the, meal; just
as the Irish and sweet potato is our
common starchy food. The thrifty
Italian and French housewives have
found that by the addition pf meat,
cheese and eggs for flavoring, they
-"can serve their families substantial
and attractive foods ut a minimum ,
cost.
To Prepare Macaroni
