« The Kitchen Cabinet Editor Shares Heirloom Pickle Recipe By PEGGY RICE MOUNT KISCO— \Cooking isn't my favorite in door sport,\ says Mary Mc Laughlin, editor of the North Westchester Times, \but this | old family recipe for mustard '* pickles is so good that I'll make it myself if I have to. And I figure the more people I share it with, the less apt I am to have to do it myself.\ The recipe for this delicious, and really very easy, pickle has been in Mrs. McLaughlin's fam ily for generations. Her grand mother, Mrs. John Gaynor, gave the recipe to her mother, Mrs. Joseph Brennen. Mrs. Brennen shared the recipe not only with her daughter, but al so contributed it to a cookbook issued 40 years ago by Court Newman, Catholic Daughters of America. The recipe is now in the hands of Mrs. McLaughlin's daughter, Mrs. George Wavri- shuk of Bedford Hills, who will surely be handing it to her daughter, Lois, as soon as Lois, now six, and starting first grade this week, can read and cook. Lois, Mrs. McLaughlin is quick to point out, is the fourth gen eration to be born in Mount Kis- co. They are really a native fam ily. •Times' Was 1st Job Mrs. McLaughlin's first job after completing her education was with the North Westchester Times. \And if my good health prevails,\ she says, \I expect to be hobbling down Main and Moger with a cane many years from now. I expect the Times will be my only job, though maybe I should toy with radio j or public relations for a change of pace,\ she adds with a grin. As advice to the would be newspaper man or woman, Mrs. McLaughlin says that the course she has found most valuable in her work was one in psychology taken at New York University. Mrs. McLaughlin has edited many prize winning newspapers including the centennial edition of this newspaper. Published on Oct. 12, 1950 in connection with the \100 Friendly Years\ cele. bration in Mount Kisco, the pa per received the New York State Historical Association prize for the best special edi tion devoted to historical news and the second prize for special editions. Another prize winner, for which Mrs. McLaughlin was res ponsible, was the 75 Anniver sary edition of the Times, which received the New York Press Association's 1st award for spe cial editions. A Life-long Democrat People are Mrs. McLaugh lin's hobby. \After all,\ she says, \people make news and I certainly know and like a great many people. I guess that's not unusual after living here for so many years. Most of my best friends are Republi cans, but I'm a life long Demo crat, an oddity in these parts, and to make matters worse, I'm a Dodger fan. I guess that disqualified me from the upper social eschelon.\ Mrs. McLaughlin has been married for 34 years to William J. McLaughlin, who shares her interests in community and civ ic activities. He has lived in Chappaqua and Mount Kisco for more than a half a century and is a director of the Boys Club and the Mount Kisco Lions Club. Mr. McLaughlin retired recent ly from the Metropolitan Life Insurance Company. During World War II he served as major in both theaters of war An interest in \the sport of kings\ is also shared by the McLaughlins. Seabright and Saratoga, they find, ideal vaca tion spots. Mr. McLaughlin can also be prevailed upon to give his wife a hand around the house and kitchen. \He's a very good chop per when I make those pickles,' she says. And once the chop ping's done the pickles are just about made. So Mrs. McLaughlin suggests that our readers get the help of a husband and get to making these pickles now, while the vines are heavy with green to matoes, and a frost may be just around the corner. All the other ingredients are inexpensive and available now, so don't delay. MUSTARD PICKLES 4 quarts cucumbers 6 pounds or 4 quarts green tomatoes 12 green peppers 6 red peppers 3 pounds or 2 quarts white onions 2 heads califlower 2 cups coarse salt 1 pint water 2 quarts vinegar 4 cups sugar 6 tablespoons dry mustard 6 tablespoons flour 1 ounce tumeric 1. Peel onions; take seeds out of pepper; cut all ingredients into small pieces, except the cucumbers which should be cut into fair-sized chunks. 2. Cover vegetables with two cups of salt. Cover with water and let stand overnight. 3. In the morning boil in the same brine for six minutes. Then drain. 4. Bring the pint of water, the vinegar and sugar to a boil. 5. Make a paste of the mus tard, flour and tumeric, adding a little water. 6. Stir paste into boiling vine gar solution. Boil until thicken ed. 7. Put vegetables into boiling liquid. 8. Put into jars and seal or into a crock and cover. YIELD: Mrs. McLaughlin says, \Lot's!\ Look Both Ways When Backing Thousands of collisions occur because drivers are careless when backing their automobiles out of driveways and in and out of parking spaces. And each year, hundreds of pedestrians suffer crippling injuries in acci dents of this type. Before backing your car in any situation, make certain the way is clear, the Association of Cas ualty and Surety Company ad vises. And while you are back ing up. continue to watch for cars and approaching pedestri ans.

Commencing at an early age to do freelance illustrations of the American scene, he soon became an expert draftsman and illustrator. He was sent to the front during the Civil War by Harpers Magazine and made outstanding drawings of camp life. He did not take up water color painting, of which he be came a master, until the age of 37. Homer made two trips abroad to France and England.
