Sauce for Game.

Take two cups of milk, one cup of dried bread crumbs, one-quarter of an onion, two tablespoonfuls of butter and half teaspoonful each of salt and pep. per. Dry the bread in warm oven, then roll it into rather coarse crumbs, sift them and put the fine crumbs which come through the sieve on to boil with the milk, adding the onion, and boil 15 minutes, then skim out the onion and add one tablespoonful of butter and the seasoning. Fry the coarse crumbs until brown in the remainder of the butter, which should be very hot before they are added. Stir over a hot fire two minutes, being careful not to burn. Cover the breasts of the game or fowls with these, and pour the sauce around them.-St. Louis Republic.

Teachers Convention.

An interesting session of the Audubon |
County Teachers Association was held
at the high school building in Audubon
on Saturday. Notwithstanding the un-
favorable weather the attendance was
good.
The first discussion was on the subject
of Primary Language" 1t was partici-
pated in by Prof. Hooker, Supt. Rspass,
Miss Andrews, Miss Turner and others.
Mrs. Carver read paper on Primary
Reading" that showed mature thought
and careful preparation. THE Spear
Method in Arithmetic" was the subject
of a very profitable general discussion
that was opened by Mrs. Carver. Supt.
Repass discussed it at considerable
length and other teachers rehearsed their
experience with the new method. The
questions for general discussion were
both numerous and interesting. Teach
ing the effects of stimulants and mar
cotics was perhaps the most noteworthy.
How to teach it and what it is proper to
teach came within the range of this dis
cussion. An outsider was of the opinion
that the principles of prohibition should
be taught as a part of the instruction
intended by the law to be given. All
agreed that the public schools should
give the greatest possible impetus to the
work of practical temperance Closing
the program Supt. Repass made very
timely farewell talk to his teachers. He
reviewed his connection with school
work and his talk was impressive and
timely. He wished for his successor the
same loyal support that the teachers had
accorded him to the end, that the public
schools of the county might continue to
prosper. At the close of his address
resolutions, substantially as follows,
were unanimously adopted:
WHEREAS, The pre- cent meeting of this as
ISOLATION is the last at which Prof. d. p. Eepass
will oilciate as County Superintendent, and
whereas his services during the past eight years
