Saving of Steps
In Boxing Cakes
TOBcCOnSidered

Did you ever notice two persons 90
through the process of cake making
and note their methods? One brings
from the pantry into the kitchen every
thing she thinks she will want-the
basket OF eggs, the pail OF sugar and
a quantity OF unsifted flour. besides two
or three times as much butter as re-
quired- These are placed on the kitchen
table. Then she measures into a pint
bowl the sugar with a cup. Next she
measures into another cup her butter
the milk in another. and takes another
cup TO measure out what -four she in,
tends to use.
She has now one small bowl and four
cups. Then the baking powder is
measured into the -four with a spoon
and a second spoon is used for the
flavoring. A knife Is used for the but
ter and a fork to beat the eggs. The
sugar is put in the mixing bowl and
the butter stirred into it; then while
the eggs are beaten and two or three
journeys made to the pantry for some
thing forgotten. When the cake Is
mixed there IS again a delay while the
pans ere creased When the cake IS

tomorrow. The state convention is
now less than two weeks distant; hav-
ing been set for March IL. 1t Is like
ly that both conventions here will be
productive of many sensational skir-
mishea between the opponents and
friends of Taft.
Although dispatches to Washington
conveyed the startling Information
that the first congressional conven-
tion held in Colgate, Okla, had named
two delegates instructed first and
last" for Taft the simple facts are
that the big Ohioan's supporters were
defeated and the two delegates chosen
are uninstructed.
Captain Charles Hunter, the pres
ent chairman OF the state central
committee, Is in disrepute and his
time-honored foes, Jake Hamon of
Lawton, Dennis Flynn and ex-Secre-
tary Bill Grimes, are back at the head
Of the old clans That makes 1t ex-
tremely doubtful whether the state
convention, will instruct for Taft. 1t
is pretty certain thaet the IA men
who go to Chicago will not be in
structed for any one else. That is
not the scheme. A free bunch" Is
the slogan of the anti-Taft clique
and the stone is rolling and accumu-
lating moss every minute.
