SUNDAY NIGHT SUPPER , So why not serve this happy ending A curried dish "gives a menu a often since you can do it ihese daz without making extra work for your gelf? That is, if you make delicious and simple cardy ice cream you car concoct all scrts of different flavors as easily as you'd make a plain jun- ket or custard pudding. Any favorite recipe may' be used for the foundation cream. Junket, custard, Mousse, parfait, ice and sherbet may be flavored and -sweet- ened with the candies. All the hard varieties of candies, chocolate coat- ed or plain may be used without ad- ditional sugar, but some of the cream candies may require a little extra sugar. ; One-half pound of candy is enough to sweeten and flavor one quart of custard or other foundation mixture. If the candy is thoroughly crushed and allowed to dissolve in the foun- dation cream before freezing an even color is produced. An attractive mot- tled effect is obtained if the candy is rather coarsely crushed and added to the cream mixture just before freezing. There will be bits of un- dissolved candy which retain their color sprinklered through the frozen mixture, : Following are two basic recipes which may be varied by the use of different candies. Peppermint Stick Cream One pound red and white pepper- mint stick.candy, 6 cups thin cream, 1/8 teaspoon salt. Scald cream in double boiler. Re- move from heat and add salt! and finely crushed candy. Cool and turn into freezer mold. Pack in six parls ice to one part ice cream salt and let stand several hours. _Serve plain or with hot chocolate sauce, as pre- ferred. If you want to use this recipe in a mechanical refrigerator, stir 1 tablespoon softened gelantine into the scalding hot cream, stirring until gelatine is thoroughly dissolved. Mapshmallows should -be quartered and dissolved in the hot cream. This is splendid for an iceless refrigera- Chocolate coated molasses may be crushed and added to the eream after it has cooled. [his makes a delicious rich cream with- out th: effort of melting chocolate and washing an assortment of dishes. Walnut Brittle Ice Cream. One pound walnut brittle, 4 egg: 1 cup whipping cream, 4 cups milk." Beat egg yolks slightly. Seald milk and beat into egg yolks. Cook in double boiler, stirring constantly un- til mixture coats spoon. Remove from heat and add crushed brittle. Fold in whites of eggs beaten until stiff. Cool and pour into freezer mold. Pack in eight parts ice to one part ice cream salt. When beginning to freeze around the edges, stir in cream whipped until . firm. Let stand several hours before serving. This recipe is excellent to use in a mechanical refrigerator, too. . Carrot Juice Cocktail That the carrot is the vegetable par excellence for clearing the com- plexion is universally conceded. But it is little known what a quantity of juice may easily be extracted from it. As a welcome change from tomato juice, which is in vogue at present, try a carrot juice cocktail! Here's how. Grate a large carrot and squeeze the pulp 'through a piece of cheese cloth when you will find yourself chips certain zest that lifts it out of the everyday class and puts in into (he need'nt be used only for party menus.

For only the third time since the British Royal Academy was founded in 1768, a woman has been elected an assoclated of that iustitution. She. is Mrs, Dod Procter, painter of the picture "Morning," which The London Daily Mail acquired for the British Nation in 1927 and which was exhibited all over England as well as in the United States. The only two other women to be A.R.A's before her have heen Mrs. "Annie LL. Swyiinerton, elected in 1922 (she died-last October, aged 88), and' Dame Laura Knight, elected in 1927. There have been no women R.A.S since Angelica Kaufman and Mary Moser became Foundation Members in 1768. Man Also Elected Mrs. Procter is one of two new associates who have heen elected to fill the vacancies caused by the re- cent elevation of W.

Few Male Teachers In England Bécause Men Want "Plums" Dr. H. Critchton-Miller's statement at a recent meeting of the Lon-don, (England), Women's Council thal "school teaching is regarded by the community at large as a very useful way of using up superflous unmar- ried women" has met -with indignant denials from many educational authorities. Miss E. E. I'voud, secretary of the National Union of Women Teachers said: Dr. Critchton-Miller seemed to have ar extraordinary bias against women and women's work, though he is a man of science. "There are two reasons why there ave fewer men teachers," Miss Fround added. "Teaching is a very difficult job and men don't like it, and when men come in they want only the plums." Frank Roscoe, secretary of the Royal Society of Teachers said: "Dr. Crichton-Miller's statement is no* only bold but somewhat wild. Wo- men have a definite place in our school system. Their services in the infant schools of this country have commanded the admiration of edu- cationists throughout the world." - The country does feel that a school-mistress is as good as a schoolmaster, Mr. Roscoe thought, because the averiize parent recog- nizes that for all young children teaching by women is best.

Medical Skill Callander--The successful birth of the Dionne quintuplets at Corbeil, neat' here, was a triumph for a between 1,400 and 1,500 childy2n into the world. Dr. Allan Roy Dafoe is an old- school physician who has practiced in Callander for twenty-eight years, and he says the Dionne event was "similar to what any country prac- titioner encounters." Admirers of the middle-aged physi- cian call' him the most brilliant ob- stetrician in the North and are grati- fied that the country doctor has be- come widely known through the Di- onne case. Dr. Dafoe comes of a family of physicians. His father was one and his brother now practices in Toronto. He was born in Madoe, Ont.. of Unit- tended college in Toronto, graduat- ing in 1908. He has attended many unusual cases and assisted at the birth of qua-| aruplets in Burks alls some years ago, but none of his patients have attained the fame of the Dionne girls. | Speaking of his years spent in the North, thew physician remarked! that things are much easier for, the country doctor now that he is able' to use an automabile to make his calls. In the days of poor roads he travelled thousands of miles through all sorts of weather with a horse and} buggy. He has had to contend with the usual inconveniences of the rural practitioner: lack of hospitals, the poverty of patients, difliculty of travel | and of securing the proper assistance and aids to the profession. Recently a meeting with a Natn Bay woman vecalled to a former nurse a case which he attended twen- | ty years ago. A woman attempted to commit suicide by shooting, and Dr. Dafoe travelled over a lake by sleigh, to attend her, He found a bullet had blown away a part of her brain and. she had been lying on a cold floor for four hours. Through his expert care she recovered and now is living in North Bay.

Turkish Language Being Modernized You can have a permanent "ondu- lasyon" in Turkish hairdressers now, 3 Turkey has been modernizing the language and putting it into Latin characters.

That is the only way to start a child on the right track and give it an eq- ual chance.' After the ceremony Lady Astor walked among the crowds surround- ing the enclosure, chatting freely with mothers and children whom the new school will seeve. To be built on a site cleared of slum properties, the new school will accommodate 10 child- ren at first and later 70. As their gift to the school, Lord and Lady Astor decided to pay the salary of the superintendent for the first year, 'because we know that if we can help you to get started on the right lines you will keep it going your selves," Lady Astor said.
