of q piping hot dinner. which had been cooked
IN Nev-Haven that morning and packed for ship
meut to Sew-York at usa
The dinner, which comprised soup. fish. potatoes.
roast lamb and spinach. was packed in brass
cylinder. composed Of two sheets Of metal placed
about two inches apart and including a OF
non-conducting material The cylinder closed
with q, cover constructed IN the same way. and at
the bottom q heater. The dishes were taken
from this cylinder hot that they could not be
handled and were passed around to the audience
that they might satisfy themselves that this was
the case
This cylinder has been successfully used for the
distribution OF meals from central kitchens In
PittsburE. New-Eaven and Mansfield. Ohio. and a
company has been formed for the purpose Of intro
ducing its use into other cities, including New
York Miss Clara Louise Herman will have charge
Of the enterprise here. and is hoped that the work
viii be begun At an early date.
A paper by Miss Herman. which read in her
absence by the Rev. Walter Bentley. preceded the
exhibition Of the dinner, and n IT Miss Herman
said that food could be cooked and distributed by
this system at the same cost at which people now
buy the material their meals. It would also
be possible to give to the public by this means the
benefits OF modern scientific investigations IN the
subject Of nutrition Patrons could be assured that
their meals contained the proper nutritve proper
would be specially considered.
To this Miss Helen Louise johnson, who was
also one Of the speakers Of the afternoon, added
that meals suitable all conditions Of life could
be ordered from the central kitchen It would only

meals exactly suited to ones needs.
The elimination CT kitchen drudgery from the
nome was mentioned of the greatest ad-
vautzges Of cooperative cooking Only in this
way. said Miss Herman, could we realize the ideal
home life Many domestic infelicities would vanish
with the slavery Of the kitchen. and women would
have time be real companions to their husbands
and children
