IL. IL lies in her complete fOrgetfulncss
Of self. She is utterly unse.fsh. and
she shows it BY being as nice 20 the bash
ful freshman a. to the dignified senior
by being as kind TO the plain. stupid
girl as % the brilliant butterfly. In
short. she never courts favor for herself
or acts the part Of a snob. Moreover. she
is conscientious in her college work and
never sights it. For love : founded on
respect. as every one knows. and no one
can respect a dullarG. Finally, she is
always ready to help q friend in need. or
TO Join her in a gay, gJ-d time. Fol
the popular girl is extremely fond Of
fun. She is not a prod. which is short
for prodigy. and means a classroom phe-
nomenon: nor is she a dig" She is. in
fact, just what every gay. good natured
girl may become, il she tries to forget
self and to love her neighbor.
Thus you see, whoever you are. you
may II you will become the popular girl,
and then YOU will see that what | have
said Is true. You will realize. or your
friends will. that your selfishness mas
disappeared, that your vanity is zero
and that your angularities have been
rubbed of by constant friction with
other angels. Sometimes this result is
not accomplished until you are ready to
leave college, and you graduate when
you are Just on the verge of becoming
popular. This is sad. and this is why
said in the first place that if you wish
to enjoy college life you must resolve be-
fore you enter college that you will be
the popular girl.

long intervals. For winter consumption
cornmeal is especially suited, as it is an
appreciaole heat producer, and this
nriestess OF maize urges that at least
once a day through the cold season it
should be on the table in some form. 1t
was undoubtedly new to many women
that sweet wholesome loaf bread could
be made from cornmeal. as it was again
and again, stress only being laid upon
the careful following of directions for
cooking the meal thoroughly first.
Adirondack cornbread is as appetiZing
as its name implies, redolent as it is OF
pine forests and fresh spicy airs. Mrs.
Rorer's receipt for this is: Five eggs,
one pint milk. one-half pint cornmeal,
one-half pint -four, two ounces butter,
m tablespoonful salt, one of sugar. two
t~easpoOnfuls baking powder. Beat the
yolks thoroughly and add the milk: stil
the meal and flour together and add
to it gradually the eggs and milk. stir
