GUMBo, -Gumbo Is the name of soup;
Okra is the plant. Okra is cultivated in
every vegetable garden in Texas. The
tender pods are boiled and dressed with
salt, pepper and butter, and always
called Okra. Soup, made by boiling
beef, chicken, or duck until the meat
will part from the bone, which is then
chopped fine as for mince meat and put
back INTO the soup, and young Okra
pods cut up thin across the pod are put
into the soup and simmered for an hour,
red and black pepper are added, and
when done it lis called "Gumbo." and
persons accustomed to the dish are very
fond of it. The Creoles often add Sas-
safras leaves cut fine to give the Gumbo
O flavor and add to the mucllaglnous
qualities OF the Gumbo. Okra is much
used in oil soups with other vegetables,
It should not be cooked in an iron ket-
tie, MS it turns the Okra black. The
test for Okra In to break the pod from
the plant; if it will not break il has
passed the edible atate. Okra, Toma-
toes and Green Corn, iu equal quantities,
seasoned with butter, pepper and salt,
and baked for two hours, is favoritO
Southern dish.

A DILEMMA: An Austin boy had the
bad. habit of reading after he went to
bed, and leaving the candle burning,
much to the alarm of his parents, who
were afraid he would set the house on
fire. AS the boy did pretty much as he
pleased, his father told the colored boy
who waited on the table to go up into
the sons room after he had gone to sleep
and put out the light. which programme
was carried out for several months. One
night. however, the parents of the boy
were aroused from a sound slumber by
the calling out: "Boss, oh Boss what
am L ter do ?" "Merciful Moses what
he's happened?" ode boy has done"
"Merclful heavens has he set the house
on fre?" "No, but he put de light ont
hisself. L want ter know what I'm
gwine ter do about hit?"

these: "The essays of the graduating

floral offerings were excessive, and from
