Miss Lain came back today. We have a Civics and a Science test tomorrow at school. Scrapple for supper.
*Scrapple
Make a mush of 4 cups broth (beef, pork, chicken, or other meat) and 1 cup cornmeal. First bring the broth to a rapid boil. Add salt and pepper to suit taste, then stir in the cornmeal gradually. To the mush add 2 cups chopped leftover meat. Mix well and place in double boiler. Allow to cook about 1 hour. May be eaten hot or sliced cold and fried until brown.

Rode home with Daddy, Mrs. M., Bernice and Ruth Ray. Aunt Kate was over. We cooked fudge candy. B (Betty) came down.
*Ruth's Fudge
2 cups sugar
2 squares chocolate, chipped
2/3 cup cream, milk, or water
2 tablespoons light corn syrup
2 tablespoons butter
Few grains salt
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
3/4 cups chopped nuts if you want them
Place sugar, chocolate, liquid corn syrup, butter, and salt in a saucepan and heat slowly, stirring until the sugar is dissolved. Cover until boiling point is reached. Cook without stirring until the temperature reaches 240 degrees, or until a soft ball is formed when a few drops are placed in cold water. Add vanilla extract (and nuts if using them), then cool without stirring to lukewarm (110 degrees). Beat until creamy and mixture loses its shine. Pour into a buttered square pan and mark into squares.
NOTE: If mixture becomes too stiff to spread, the candy may be kneaded, or a few drops of cream may be added to bring the mixture back to spreading consistency.

Viola Clark is going to give a mystery story up at school once a week, maybe until it ends. Mother traded flour for sugar so we can make candy.
*The Emergency Relief Administration (ERA) was created by President Herbert Hoover in 1932 to give loans to the states to operate relief programs that provided food and other aid to the unemployed. In May 1933, President Franklin D. Roosevelt asked Congress to set up the Federal Emergency Relief Administration (FERA), which gave grants to the states for the same purpose. FERA's main goal was alleviating household unemployment by creating new unskilled jobs in local and state government. Jobs were more expensive than direct cash payments (rather derisively called "the dole"), but were psychologically more beneficial to the unemployed, who wanted any sort of job for self-esteem to play the role of male breadwinner. From May 1933 until it closed in December, 1935, FERA gave states and localities $3.1 billion. FERA provided work for over 20 million people and developed facilities on public lands across the country.
