Sir,-Your correspondent "Less on the Eats" certainly lets us know what she expects in The Listener, but does she expect any programmes at all and should she not be content with material referring to subjects which are figuring largely in the programmes? I am not specially interested in cooking, but I watch those cookery pages closely, for the matter is always topical and very useful. The Dunedin writer doesn’t do herself justice in scorning them as merely "eats." In the particular issue in question the subject of quinces actually occupied less than half a column of the supposed two pages. There were, in addition to other recipes, directions for making necklaces with shells, and for making face cream, suggestions for conserving stockings, for packing jam for overseas, and even for poultry keeping. I was interested in "Two Views of Democracy" in the same issue; those reviews occupied nearly a page!
