SERVING THE FOWL
TWO DELICIOUS WAYS OF PRE-
PAIRING CHICKEN.
When Pressed II Makes as Fine a
Dish as Could Be Desired
Steamed with Rice and
Mushrooms.

Pressed Chieken.-Cover a young
fowl, cut in joints. with boiling water,
and let simmer until tender, together
with few slices of carrot, half an
onion, and a stalk of celery. Remove
the skin and bones, and return them
with the broth to the fire, and let
simmer until reduced to about one
cup; strain and set aside When the
flesh is nearly cold, cut into tiny cubes
or chop fine; remove the fat from the
broth, reheat, and stir the chicken into
it, adding salt and pepper and other
seasoning as desired. Decorate 1sold
with slices of hard boiled eggs; in this
pack the hot chicken, cover with a
buttered paper bearing weight, ami
let stand until cold and set. Serve,
sliced thin, with salad.
Steamed Fowl with Rice and Mush-
rooms.-Truss a fowl for boiling, rub
with the cut side of lemon and lay
on slices of salt pork or bacon and
steam with an onion and two or three
stalks of celery until tender-three
hours or longer. Have ready mound
of boiled rice, seasoned with butter
and salt, and dispose the fowl upon
this. Arrange mushrooms cooked in
the usual manner about the rice.
Serve with the strained chicken liquor,
thickened with -four and enriched with
two egg yolks, beaten with a half cup
full of cream.
Jellied Chicken.-Boil chicken and
let it get cold in the liquor. Skim the
liquor from every particle of fat. Re-
move all the skin and bones from the
chicken and cut the meat into pieces
of uniform size. Soak a half-cup of
gelatin in a half-cup of cold water. Mix
with the chicken a dozen stoned olives
cut up small and two dozen canned
mushrooms, also cut small. Bring
the chicken liquor TO boil, add the
soaked gelatin and when this is dis
solved take from the fire and set
aside to cool. When it begins to
Jelly" pour little of it into mold
wet with cold watetr, put in layer of
the chicken mixture and when this
begins to stiffen add more of the jelly
and more of the chicken, continuing in
this way until the mold is full. Set
in the ice chest for "a hours. When
ready to serve wipe off the outside of
the mold with a cloth wrung out in
hot water and turn the chicken out
upon chilled platter.

Bedroom Set in Applique.

Bedroom sets in shadow-work appli.
que are charming, and may be used
over white or colored Innings, and the
effect of these filmy embroideries ov-
er highly polished woods must be seen
to be appreciated.
In laundering this class of work it
must be pulled and smoothed into
place before it becomes dry.
A cloth should be placed between it
and the iron, and the pressing con-
tinued until the article is thoroughly
dry.

Put into the punch bowl with a lump

stems of half a dozen sprigs of mint
and add to the punch a quarter of an
hour before serving.

ONE OF the most novel and at the same
ing license to sell liquor in Lakewood
was given by Judge last week who is
reported as saying: II grant these licenses
because Lakewood people. though they
were notified that these licenses were to
come up to-day, have not thought it worth
while to make protest after adjourned
the hearing until to-day. If you don't
want licenses granted in this community
you must come into court and say So" 1t
is to be hoped the Judge has been mis-
quoted, for the position he is now in Is en-
tirely contrary to all ideas of the general
public whether upheld by the law or
otherwise. In our opinion the granting
of license to sell liquor lies entirely
within the judgment of the court. He
may refuse a license ons his own
option and that settles it. If he knows or
has private information that any hotel or
saloon is not conducted as it should be 1t
is his duty to refuse the license without
waiting for protest from citizens. The
usual custom is to remark that "the Ii
cense of John Doe to keep hotel is be-
fore the court and as there does not appear
TO be any objection the license is granted.
Yet John Doe may be absolutely with
out anything in his favor. The remarks
that appear to great many people to be
correct are: 1.-THE license of John Doe
to keep hotel u before the court. The

AT meeting of the Monmouth County
Board of Education one of the subjects
discussed was that of compulsory educa-
ton. The argument was advanced that
truant officer should be employed in every
town and that he should not only compel
children found on the streets to attend
school but should visit homes and discover
how many were kept away from school
and ascertain the reason. The idea is a
good one but its enforcement would mean
much In this county at least, for, if the
children who do not attend school were
compelled to do so there would be neces-
sty for more room and charging of build
ings. The taxpayers already object to the
heavy expense for maintaining schools yet
there Is not penny expended for any
purpose that gives as good results in the
end. 1t Is shameful to see the bows that
are being allowed to run loose In all local
tiles, getting no education except that
which comes from the street and from
lounging in places with men whose in
auence is baneful. There can be but one
result to such proceedings. These bows
will grow up to be disreputable citizens
and in many instances criminals, to bring
discredit and expense upon this or some
other community. In Mount Holly it is
the rule and not the exception to see daily
on the main street from ten to twenty boys
who ought to be In school Their chief &C.
cupation appears to be smoking cigarettes.
swearing and fighting. Under the present
school law there is a provision that allows
census to be taken in any year that
National or State census is not taken.
whereby the number of children of school
age can be ascertained. 1t would, there
fore, appear that the proper thing to
do would be to find out how many child
rem of school age there are In a town, and
then discover how many of them are not
attending school, and the reason therefore
Then it would be easy to insist upon at
tendance. As said before this will mean
expense, but the future lives of children
are of more consequence than the few pal
try dollars that will need to be spent in
their behalf

license is granted, or 1.-THE license is re-
fused" And any information favorable
or unfayorable should be sufficient basis
for che decision. The court is the abso-
lutte master and there is no appeal. Sup,
pose the court knows that a hotel keeper
constantly violates the law and sells to
persons who the law says must not be
supplied; suppose the hotel keeper is dis
solute and frequently under the influence
OF liquor in his own house, is it necessary
to have remonstrance filed and evidence
taken to show the fact? With all due re-
spect to the court we deem it the duty of
the licensing power to keep informed on
all subjects connected with the class that
comes before it for special privilege to
do business that the law seems to make
necessary to put under all sorts of
surveillance and to place strict restrictions
upon.

TUESDAY, DECEMBER "a, 1907

MONMOUTH County's Commissioners, the
substitute for the old Board Of Free
holders, have made their first report,
covering the eleven months they have
been In existence. Not single work of
Importance has been neglected, but new
roads and bridges have been built and all
repairs coming to their notice have been
given strict attention. In addition to
doing the work required for the benefit of
the public the Commissioners paid off a
debt of ga, 900 incurred by the Board of
Freeholders which vacated office for the
new system. When the Commissioners
took hold of their work they found that
the appropriation for the last nine months
under the Board of Freeholders was
$404, 29S.77, and it was discovered that
this was not only all gone but there was
deficiency of 1000. bills contracted for
which there was no money available. The
estimate of the Commissioners for their
use was $685.. S74. IS and they included the
deficiency o. $24, 600 in this. And out of
this sum the county affairs have been
conducted, with no debts of any amount
outstanding and the salaries of the Com
missioners foot up $1,000 less than was
paid to the members Of the Board of Free.
holders. This is certainly gratifying to
the taxpayers of Monmouth county, but
will possibly not convey tidings of any
character to the voters of Burlington
county who refused to adopt the Com.
missioner plan because they preferred
township representation even though il
was expensive"

NEWSPAPER reporters have been using
the name of Governor Stokes In connec
ton with the nomination for Vice Presi-
dent of the United States, but there are
many things that appear to be in the way
OF any such happening If the nominee for
President comes from this part of the coun-
try-and there is no certainty that he will
not-then of course the Vice President
must be selected from another quarter
1t is by no means an assured fact that Mr..
Taft is to be the choice of his party for
the first place on the Republican ticket
in fact Governor Stokes is reported to
have hailed Senator Knox, of Pennsyl-
vania, as the next President Whether
this is SO or not the nomination of
Senator Knox would be very pleasing to
many of the people of New Jersey, but
1t is too early to come out and say DOS
itively that Governor Stokes should be
given the second place on the ticket.
At the same dinner ut which he is said
to have made the above remark he was
hailed as man who sis destined to go
higher. That is to the point and the
pinnacle to which New Jersey citizens
want to see him exalted is the Senate of
the Uuited States. His action in the last
contest for that office when he practically
had the election in his hands was one of
the best Illustrations of the nobility of the
character of Governor Stokes. Under the
new law the people will speak directly to
their representatives on the selection of
United States Senator and Governor
Stokes will not be in the rear ranks when
the time comes to make such announce
ment. 1t might be very gratifying to
some other aspirsnt for the Office to have
the Governor sidetracked now, but the
people will haye something to say on the
subject and there will be found to be a
desire to have our Chief Executive an
active member of the United States Senate
rather than a silent presiding officer who,
following the precedent of former years.
with but few exceptions, might become
back number In public affairs after the
four years of service have expired.
