Mrs. Nicoll continued the scene in a clear talk, proving that the common use of liquors lowers the standard of moral living. Mrs. Nicoll also pointed ut that Govern- ment Control had not been benefic- fal and asked Mrs. Perkins to give statistics of the yast year bearing this out. Mrs. Kelly offered prayer. A vote of appreciation to the ladies was moved by Mrs. Dul- mage, and seconded by Mrs, Irwin, who also spoke for a moment on the responsibility of the mothers and urged all t realize it and to watch, work and pray for others as well as their own in fighting against this common evil. Mrs. Nicoll replied to the motion. A feature of the afternoon was the tea towel shower for the use of the church. Many items ou business were discussed and it was decided to hand a sum of mon- ey to the secretary of the pouiu us Stewards for use on the church expenses, Mrs, Keel was appoint- ed to buy silver flat ware for the Association, It was announced that an old- fashioned concert will be given in the church by one of the units at an early date, It was also announc- ed that a general rummage sale will be held during this month, The meeting was brought to a close with the singing of a hymn and prayer offered by Mrs, Irwin, SMILE!

One or two coats can be applied in a few minutes, as the ink dries rapidly. In- dian ink is also an excellent dye for small wooden articles.

There is a third type of omelet, less commonly used than the foamy and French omelets, We call it a "souffle omelet." This is an econo- mical, appetizing and nourishing dish, resembling the foamy omelet, but containing a greater amount of nutriment and ossessing the added virtue of not "falling" so readily as the foamy omelet, This dish can be used as the main dish for luncheon or supper, or even as the main «din- ner, dish, as the mixture combines delightfully with chopped meat, fish and vegetables. A sweet souffle ome- let mixture is sometimes combined with fir chopped fruits, To make a souffle omelet we first make a souffle sauce. . SOUFFLE SAUCE Three tablespoonfuls butter, 3 level tablespoonfuls flour, 1 cupful milk, seasonings. Melt the butter, add the flour and seasonings and cook over a gentle heat until the mixture bubbles; ; bra- dually add the milk, stirring con- stantly--and continue stirring until mixture is smooth, thick and glossy. When the sauce is to be used in a savoury omelet, season with Ys teaspoonful salt and a few grains of pepper. When the sauce is to be used in a sweet omelet, season with only a few grains of salt, and sweeten to taste with sugar; about 1 level tea- spoonful of sugar for each egg used will be goyuired. FFLE. OMELET One cupful souffle sauce, 4 to 6 eggs, seasonings. ote: If more than 4 eggs are used, add 1 tablespoonful hot water for each additional egg. Make the sauce and allow it to be- come lukewarm, Beat the egg-yolks until thick and lemon colored; beat the whites until, when the bowl is inverted, the whites do not slide out. Add the yolks to the sauce, then cut and fold in the whites. Heat 134 tablespoonfuls butter in an ome- let pan, roll the pan to grease the sides as well as the bottom. The pan should be sizzling hot when the omelet is poured in. Cook for one minute over a fairly hot fire, then reduce the heat under the omelet, When the bottom of the omelet is cooked, place it in a moderate oven until, when the top is touched, the mixture no longer sticks to the fin- ger. Remove'! from the oven, score across at right angles to the pan handle, ' fold--folding away from 'the handle. Turn on to a hot platter, gar- nish and serve immediately with or without a sauce. For best results use a heavy frying pan or a regula- tion omelet pan. When a sauce is to be served, make one and one-half cupfuls of souffle sauce instead of 1 cupful. Keep the additional half- cupful hot in the top of a double boiler until the omelet is cooked. The additional sauce is thinned to the proper consistency, using either milk or cream for thinning. Additions of vegetables, cheese, fish, etc, may be made to the sauce that is served with the omelet, and it can be' spread on top of the ome- let before serving. When the omelet is to be filled with a creamed fish, meat or vege- table mitxure, hollow it out slightly before adding the creamed mixture, TO HOLLOW OUT OMELET FOR LING Ll) Holding the handle of the omelet pan in the left hand, gently hollow out the right-hand half of the ome- let, pushing the egg mixture to the sides; fill the space with the desired mixture, fold over the left-hand half of the omelet, and turn out on to a hot platter. cases, cut off the good backs, sew them together and make one good case, * LJ] * Wash baby's angora bonnet in warm water to which soap flakes have been added. Rinse in clear water the same temperature. Wring bonnets out in Turkish towels, shake well, pull into shape and hang by the corners to which the bonnet strings are sewed. - »* * All new aluminum ware should be thoroughly: washed before it is used. This removes the trace of grease which is essential in manufacturing process and which sometimes gives an undesirable flavor to foods cooked in new aluminum utensils. The clean- ing needs to be more than a rins- ing, for even though the saucepan is shining and clean in appearance, on account of the grease it requires a scrubbing. This is b est accom- plished by rubbing a thick lather of soap in the pan with a soft cloth. Rinsings in clear hot mater should follow. * LB BEEF AND TOMATO LOAF 1% pounds Hamburg steak; 1 cup mashed potatoes, 1 cup bread crumbs, 14 onion, salt and pepper, Put in a dish, and pour over it %4 can toma- toes.

BANKS DECREASED AS RESOURCES GREW 'New York, N.Y., April 8. -- The number of banks in the United States decreased from 19,265 to 18,522 dur- ing the past seven years. At the same time their resources grew from $41,551,000,000 to $43,066,000, Based on these figures the ay erage resources for each bank increased by approximately $1,000,000. Despite the fact that "chain banking" has only recently appeared as a subject of economic discussion ,the merger. pro- cess has been eliminating compeati- tion among banks with increasing swiftness.
