New Book on Scandinavian Cookery Recaptures Spirit of Relaxed Dining By ELSA STEINBERGER Food Editor To many, meal time has become merely the stowing away -as quickly as possible of enough food supposedly to give energy and to appease the pangs of hunger. The sociability and pleasurable relaxation of dining is a lost art to those who rush through a meal.

Where dining is still considered one of the social graces, the art of food preparation is an important one, worthy of the time required to make these foods attractive and outstanding in flavor. Scandinavian cooks are among those who have developed this art. That others enjoy it, too, is evident by the popularity of restaurants specializing in this type of food. Many American cooks like to try to duplicate some of these delightful recipes, especially those used for the popular smorgasbord.

These have been adapted for use in American kitchens for "plain cooks." Miss Brobeck, an American, has traveled in the Northern countries enough to be familiar with their cookery which been brought to this country. Monika Kjellberg is a native of Stockholm, formerly women's editor on a newspaper there. She has collected recipes directly from the various countries they represent. We find the suggestions not only tempting and colorful as the smorgasbord itself, but a store of information concerning customs, background and manners. Fish, game, meats, vegetables, soups, breads, desserts, beverages, and of course their well-known appetizers, are discussed.

You will want to try the recipes and will probably plan a smorgasbord your next party. The book is available at A book department for $3. To celebrate its publication, luncheon was served aboard the Swedish American Line's Gripsholm, at pier 97, North River. Guests had an opportunity to enjoy the charming hospitality, typical of the Scandinavian countries and their peo-riod ple, as well as to taste the delicious foods, served according to custom. The fish is served first along with several varieties of bread with butter.

This is accompanied by iced and beer. Meats and salads follow, then the cheese and hot dishes. After this the main part of the meal, dessert and coffee complete the meal. It goes without saying that this requires the relaxation and time to enjoy it to the utmost, along with the sociability and graciousness which is the true essence of hospitality.

From Frederick Haworth's Mail Wife About His Unhappy Drinking Mary DEAR MARY HAWORTH- been married 10 years, have a fine son and daughter and are very much in love.

Liquor is the problem. We both like to drink and during our short courtship did quite a bit of it. In marriage it has been an integral part of our daily routine, but such discord as we've had is easily traceable to its influence, so recently I decided to give it up, except for parties. However, my change of pace hasn't altered my husband's routine two or three highballs every night before dinner and six or seven on special occasions. Is this normal drinking? He is a doctor and rather Mary Haworth well versed in psychology, Mary Haworth but on the subject of drink he has little or nothing to say; and is this tacit admission of a weakness he can't control? Man Is Ready With Excuses He is very much of an introvert and I'm sure has always felt that liquor helps him overcome a natural shyness.

Has he had this prop SO long he can't give it up; and will it get worse as time goes on? Am I at fault some way? I feel there is no place in his work for hangovers. L. B. Man Must Know He's Alcoholic DEAR L. a physician rather well versed in psychology, your husband probably knows that he is an alcoholic, by medical definition, at this point.

And your illuminating remarks about his temperament suggest that his social drinking in the early rounds was an attempt to conjure a hearty manner foreign to his gentle, sensitive, contemplative nature; and also, perhaps, as sedative-relief from neurotic, professional and economic anxieties that haunt his sober hours. In any event, it is obvious that he is compulsively addicted to liquor now, along the lines of a drug habit, which makes his present state worse than his first. And as a doctor, he ought to know that alcoholism is an illness which progressively destroys the patient who refuses to face it: and that the chances of cure are proportionate to the patient's courage to admit his peril and summon help in a fight for health. Wife's Alarm Is Warranted As of today the most serious aspect of his behavior is not the drinking per se, but his refusal to admit it has him licked; and like his drinking, this evasion of fact is a form of retreat from reality, which gives additional cause for wifely concern. You, too, would be playing ostrich if you blinked the truth that he is going to pieces gradually, carrying hangovers to work.

Society offers two forms of help for a man in his shoes: one, analytic treatment; the other, fellowship in Alcoholics Anonymous, a group which candidly works with God and attributes cure to faith in Him, a philosophy which ties in with a psychiatrist's statement, to wit: "Only God can help a drunkard, and only if he wants to be helped."
