forgive him f Pfilybr?dl_: l DEGRADATION OF SHORTCAKE _ A rural correspondent voices in a communication a thought which has been : the minds of thousands but until now has not found adequate expression. He gives utterance to a feeling of re-- -- bitter and poignant, at the passing of old--fashioned straw-- befry shortcake; for, as he truly states, the food which is now : uerading as that delectable confection is a fraud and delusion unworthy of the name it bears. It is a timely and dignified pro-- E' against the degradation of what was once and still should be the noblest offering that can grace the vernal festal board and E&h the palate of man. s : _--_ The false strawberry shortcake is a sponge cake affair, and the berries are not numerous. The real thing, as the t:orfl.-spomd-| ;" says, is made of sqoda biscuit, baked in bread pans, with plenty of "shortening" to make it light, and not too rich. A layer of the eake should be covered with berries crushed with sugar; on top of that another layer of cake and more berries: layers ad libitum, berries ad infinitum, "and on the top layer as many berries and as much juice as will stick." Compared with this, he says, "lotus eating is a piker's pastime." And those in whom ecstatic mem-- ories will be aroused by his description, and whose mouths will water as they read it, no doubt will heartily indorse his opinion. /~ Three hundred years ago old Izaak Wailton, seeking to extol zgcnfle art of angling, could think of mo higher praise of it than to compare it to the strawberry. It ranked among sports, he said, as the strawberry ranks among berries, and quoted with ap-- :'l the words of Dr. William Butler: "Doubtless God could have made a better berry, but doubtless God never did." -- ugh percentage of home ownership. When a man buys a farm he gets a home thrown in. Homes and sources of livelihood come in separate packages in the city. And the farmer usually pays Tess for farm and home than the urbanite pays for only his home. __ _ Industrial centers and congested areas have their percentage ut dowp by the presence of immigrant labor and a large thrift-- Jless and shiftless class. They start with the crushing handicap of the tenement and the impoverished families that occupy them. _--_ Iilinois feels that it has done surprisingly well in this depart-- ment of gommunity life, considering its natural handicap.
