TURN -VEREIN HOLDS
 SOCIAL SESSION
PROFESSOR CUNNINGHAM READS INTERESTING PAPER-A GOOD
 MUSICAL PROGRAMME ENJOYED
 BY LARGE AUDIENCE.

The German Turn-Veren entertained it's members and their friends last night at a literary evening which was attended by a very large and appreciative audience.
 A musical programme was well rendered by some of Birmngham's best talent and was most enjoyable. The feature of the evenings exercises was a lecture by Prof. James B. Cunningham of the Birmingham High school, entitled "The Virginia Coi- ony." in which he told of the origin and progress made by the early settlers in the country.
 In the course of his address Professor Cunningham said:
 As the time of the Jamestown exposl- ton approaches interest becomes keen in the locality, explorations colonization, government and people of the Virginia colony" The lecturer proceeded to toll how title to the country was first estab- lished by the English in which it was shown that the first person commissioned to take possession was Thomas Stukeley, a buccaneer, who received the right from Queen Elizabeth, in 1868, to colonize Florida meaning any land north of the Gulf of Mexico"
 Continuing the history of the early set- tlement. the lecturer said, that in 1888 Queen Elizabeth granted a charter to Sir Walter Raleigh, and in 1884 Arthur Bar lowe and Philip Amadas sailed to the new country to find a location for Ral- eigh's colony. On their return they re- ported having found "the most whole some land in all the world" and that a colony of one hundred gentlemen was formed who remained one year, and on their return took with them tobacco and that variety of potato, which from being

planted in Ireland, has since been called Irish.
 Professor Cunningham proceeded to
 give the dates of the different charters
 granted by English rulers and the col
 onists who came out at various times.
 All these attempts at colonization had
 failed. but despite these failures on

 Failing to find good landing place they went next day across the channel and
 found all to their comfort-Point Com fort
 The lecturer gave extracts from his- tory to show that the story of Smith and Poeahontas was a myth, as no mention
 was made of the story until seventeen years after it was said to have happened. He told about the discovery of gold in
 1908 and that every one abandoned cultl-
 vation to hunt for gold, and that Smith, who had become governor, wrote to the London company asking for carpenters, gardeners and mechanics, saying that
 thirty such would be better than one thousand such as we have" The lecturer went on to show that the
 early Virginians laid the first founda-
 ton stones on which the great nation of
 today stands. That the people felt the
 spirit of liberty come over them and un- der its influence defied the tyrannicai impositions which England tried to force
 upon them. "One hundred years before
 1t came to acts.' said the lecturer "revo- lution was in the hearth of the Virgin ians."

KENTUCKY "coRN DODGERS"
How to Produce PaIatable Old Time
 Article of Olies.

From the Louisville Courier-Journal'
 Now and again, when material TOT discussion is scanty, the hentuchy corn bone and the Kentucklans s a11ec- tion for it are discussed by our north ern and southern neighbors. Ihe Clarksville (Tenn) Leaf Chronicle reaches the conclusion that the prime cause for the excellence of corn bread in this state is that meal Is made rom the white flint corn, and made by pro cesses slow enough not to destroy the flavor of the grain. This IS the real secret of corn bread making, ana one of the reasons, at least, Tor the north erners detestation of the "dodger Is that he rarely, if ever, sees anything hut the basest imitation of the dodger, as if is known and loved upon its na- tive heath.
 There are many varieties of bread more or less palatable made from corn meal The two old fashioned varieties, dear to the southern palate, are the hoecake and the corn pone or dodger. Neither has any leavening in 1t when properly made, and neither can De made acceptably with any but White corn meal that is not ground to the fineness of flour by modern machinery. The "bolted" meal of the modern grist mill is totally unfit for making corn dodgers or hoecakes. It is so finely ground that unleavened bread made from it is as solid as a wedge. The rare nut like flavor of the perfect dodger can be produced only when the meal is coarse enough for minute ar chambers to exist throughout the dough as it cooks. Formerly. when water mills were in general use throughout the south, it was easy to procure coarse meal The best was that made rom new corn. and the corn dodger rom the first turn" of corn taken to the mill after corn-shucking time was the best of the year.
 When baking powder or other ieaV- ening is introduced, in an enorl to tighten the bolted meal, an always III :, ferior and too often sour imitation ol the old fashioned dodger is the result. Many kinds of "egg bread and batter bread" and corn cakes may be made bv using an ingredient to make the mixtrre "rise," but the corn dodges and the hoecake must depend for light ness upon the quality of the meal Of which they are made
 It is not difficult to find restaurants and hotels even in the north where Kentucky corn dodgers may be or dered. It is difficult even in the south to procure the corn dodger in its na- tive purity and perfect quality except in private houses where the traditions and recipes of ante-bellum days have been preserved.
 To make corn dodgers there is re- ouired meal, properly made from white flint corn: water-or sweet milk-salt, and cook that is conscientious and will not use anything to make the bread rise. To make hoecakes, there is needed the same nal, the same cook. little water, and a little salt. The combination has become rare even in Kentucky

Forgot the Baby.

From the Cleveland Plain Dealer.
 A young mother was walking with her husband on the Atlantic City Board walk. Suddenly she gave little cry of pleasure.
 "oh!' she said. there is nurse-nurse wheeling baby"
 And then she ran lightly to the luxuri- ous coach of leather, with it's swan shaped carriage and its rubber-tired wheels and she pulled back the parasol that shaded the occupant from the sun. Then she gave a great start.
 "Why, nurse," she cried, where's S baby baby?"
 The nurse gasped Goodness graci- ous, maam. forgot to put him in!
