SPICE YOUR MEAL © WITH THESE SURPRISES Do you try to give. your family food variety, or do you stick to the 'same old way of cooking day: in and day; out? It .is; not as hard as you think. to. make your meals a little different. If food that is usually served on a platter comes to the table in a bak- .ing dish interest is immediately aroused.: Meat baked with clever sea- soning has an entirely different flavor 'than the same meat fried or even. broiled. : Surprise. the family! by = omitting potatoes and serve a creamy rice pudding for dessert. ~~ It isn't necessary 'to serve expen- sive, out-of-season foods. The good root vegetables such as carrots and and the, finest chefs appreciate - and make full use of the full-flavored onion. °° } SE Baked - Steaks One and one-half pounds sirloin steak, 4 medium sized carrots, 2 tea- spoons salt, 4 teaspoon pepper, 4 good sized onions, 2 small turnips. Trim steak and dredge" with flour. Put in a baking pan and cover with carrots and turnips. which have been pared and cut in dice. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Pour a few table- spoonfuls of water over vegetables. Bake in a' moderate oven for 45 min- utes, Peel onions: and cut in halves, Dip in melted 'butter. and arrange over vegetables and meat. Continue to bake 45 more minutes or until steak and vegetables are tender. Serve from baking dish, Of course you may use any com- bination of vegetables you prefer, but don't forget the onions because they add 'so much to the savoriness of the dish. A can of tomatoes pour- ed over the steak when it's put in 'the oven is another way to vary the connection. If you want to sprinkle a cup of grated cheese over the whole thing about ten minutes before sending to the table--just long enough to melt the cheese--you have something else again. 5 he Creamy Rice Pudding Two cups milk, 8 tablespoons rice, 1514 teaspoon salt, 4 tablespoons sugar, 1 tablespoon. vanilla, 1 table- lows: spoon butter. saucepan, press through a strainer, | and |' turnips areqsayory; and . appetizing, its kind on display at the Inst tion, is being prepared for. displa u This 190-pound sailfish caught by President Roosevelt after a fierce bat 3 ¥ 2 is by the Smithsonian Institute.

Ezra 7:6.10; 8:21.23, 381, 32° GOLDEN TEXT. -- The hand of God Is upon all: them that seek him, for Good: Ezra 8:22, THE LESSON IN ITS SETTING TIME -- 458 B.C. LY PLACE -- The cities of Babylon and Jerusalem, and. on the banks of the river Ahava, which cannot now be. determined, though many con. jectures. have. been made. . "This Ezra went up from Babylon." The actual journey from Babylon to Jerusalem is not recorded until 8:31. "And he was a ready scribe in the law of Moses, which Jehovah, the God of Israel, had given." The scribe in the days of Monarchy was the king's State Secretary. or Chancellor ( 2 Sam. 8:17; 20:25; 1 Chron, 18:16; 2 Kings 18:18; 22:3, ete.). - "And the king granted him all his request, .according to the hand of Je- hovah his God upon. him." What Ezra's request was of Artaxerxes, we are not: told, but we can probably de. termine it by considering the letter given by Artaxerxes, which is copled into this chapter. "And there. went up some of the children of Israel, and of the priests, Wash rice. Mix ingredients and pour into a buttered baking dish. Bake three hours in a_low oven (362 degrees F.) Stir three times during the first hour to prevent rice from settling. Serve either. hot or- cold. * 9 HOME HINTS". When buying a winter coat, do not think that the weight of the coat determines its warmth. A light- weight, fluffy material is oftentimes warmer than a much heavier gar- ment, When necessary to make icing quickly for cup cakes, place a marsh- mallow on each cake and toast slight- ly. Stockings should not be gartered so tightly that when seated there is an unnecessary strain that will cause a runner. 0 Rub the griddle with a small bag of salt instead of using grease and the cakes will be cooked without smoke or odor. Place a piece of bread in the pot in which cabbage or cauliflower is cooking and it will eliminate: much of the unpleasant odor. Much less sugar will be required to sweeten applesauce if the sugar is added to it just before it Is remov- ed from the range. ¥ é YY LESSON and the Levites, and "the singers." The Levitical order of singers was instituted during the reign of David (1 Chron. 15:17-24), of whom there appear to have been twenty-four classes (1 Chron, von yi "And 'the porters." These were %ydoorkeepers Nethinim." A class:subordinate to the Levites, but ranking. before the ser. vants of Solomon in the services of the temple. (Ezra 2:43). Their origin is hid in great obscurity. "Unto Je- rusalem, in the seventh year of Ar. "And he came to Jerusalem in the fifth month, whioh was. in the seventh year of the Kimg' The fifth month was the month Ab, corresponding, approximately to our August. For. upon the first day of the first month began he. to go up from Baby- lon; and on the first*day of the fifth month came he to Jerusalem, accord« ing to the good hand of hls God upon him" The journey lasted through the eighteenth day of "the first month, that is, Nisan, and the three months Iyar, Sivan, Tammuz; in all about one hundred and 'eight days. 'For Ezra had:set his heart to seek the law of Jehovah." This verse is probably the greatest single descrip- student of the World of God to be found in- the entire Old Testament: "And to do it". He did not attempt to. preach. .what..he had. not tried. to live. He would test the effect of his doctrine on himselt before venturing to prescribe it for others. 'And to teach Israel:statutes and ordinances." These two words are frequently. found together (e.g. Lew. 26:46; Deut: 4:1, 6, 8, 14; 2 Chron, 7:17; 19:10; Mal 4:4). - "Then I proclaimed a. fast: there, at the:river Alava, that we might humble ourselves before our God." The fast is not proclaimed with any special. confession" of sin: Ezra ap. points .the fast: (a) as the symbol of submission before God!s. will and of repentence. from: sin; (b) as the means of intensifying religious fevor in prayer through the restraint laid upon. physical appetite; (c) as the testimony that .
