An Entree

An Entree
new to some Of the guests at a recent
luncheon was green peppers stuffed
with creamed chicken with which a
little Parmesan cheese had been mixed.
The tops were covered with butterul
crumbs, and they were baked for about
half an hour. In baking any such pre-
paration, the dish containing it should
be covered. excepting for the last few
minutes that it is in the oven. when
the top should be allowed TO brown.

are considered the choicest treat for
Sunday night supper in the home Of
an English woman uptown. The re-
cipe, as nearly as she could give It
after years OF tossing her batters to-
gether without thought Of a formula, is
this: Four rounding tablespoonfuls
of brown sugar, a cupful of ale. little
spice and at the last minute the stiffly
beaten white Of an egg. Sometimes a
quarter of a cupful OF chopped sour
apples or OF washed and dried currants
is stirred in. The batter is fried on a
griddle and as soon as the pancakes
are done they are sprinkled generously
with sugar. Half milk and half ale
are sometimes used by old cooks.

DOVER Del. FEB. e7-The first Bit

stole a march on the liquor men by
throwing upon the floor Of the Senate
the local option bill for the entire
State, reporting It, as minority re-
port, without recommendation
senator Sparks at once attacked his
action, stating that he had never seen
such an unparliamentary procedure in
Delaware's capitol and demanded a
ruling Of the chair upon its consti-
tutionality.
While the lieutenant governor, Cen
eral Parker. was preparing his decision
the members OF both sides OF the liquor
and local option questions declared
that what each other was saying was
not so,
Senator, Sparks and Rose demanded
that Senator Conner answer why he
had taken such a course with such
precipitate haste. He replied:
'Mr. President there are reasons
known to me why, in order to save
this bill'it should be reported upon to-
day AS chairman. called a meet

two OF the hve responded. and voted
to report favorably. The others simply
would not consider this bill"

consideration while we were on third

not So. I called you when you had

THE sKEEDADDLE ARMY ROLL

sDicuo8s by their absentees There
were over 10000 deserters last year.
French leave seems the fashionable
relief in army eiroles. This looks a
little rank in view of our boasted dis

Such condition could not exist
without very deep causes. Perhaps
the American spirit of independence
and unwillingness OF ambitious young
men to submit to West Point superior
airs lies very near the bottom of IT,
OF course In time Of war the ambi-
tious. patriotic American has not hesi-
tated to put his life and all his powers
at his country's service. How well he
has made good let history tell
There IS a more spiritless class that
make very good toy soldiers TO. dis
play purposes who do not chafe at this
restraint nor take offense at the
superior airs of officers, but the War
department has been making an
especial effort to raise the standard OF
enlistment and get the higher class of
yorng men.
The result is that they soon grow
tired of the soldiers routine IN time
Of peace Your American hoy wants
to see the chips fly when he chops
wood No doubt prosperity, high
wages in civil life, and the severe
drills OF the army under modern con-
ditions have their effect.
Eut account for it as you Will an
annual army of 10000 deserters is one
of tho bord condition4 facing The War
