The arrangement OF the stars to
meet the case of Oklahoma was made
In the summer of 1907 by joint board
OF army and navy officers. of which Ad-
miral Dewey was the chairman by vir-
tue of his rank. The decision of that
board. afterward approved by the sec
retaries of war and navy and the presi-
dent, in turn. was that the forty-sixth,
or Oklahoma star, be placed at the
lower right-hand corner of the blue
field of the flag.
After full consideration of the sub
ject the board approved an arrange
ment having eight stars in the first,
third. fourth and sixth rows. and
seven stars In the second and fifth
rows. The flag was changed accord
ingly. July 4, 1908, I'm recognition of
the admission of Oklahoma 1t will
so remain until changed to recognize

MEAT WITH THE FAT
RICHNESS or FLAVOR Is SECURED
~ BROWNING.
Heating Usually Done In Frying Pan.
Except In Case Of Roasts, But
Care Must Be Exercised TO
Avoid ecorchIno.

Next To the unchanged flavor OF the
meat itself comes the flavor which is
secured by browning the meat with
fat. The outside slices OF roast meat
have this Drowned favor in marked de-
gree. Except I'm the case OF roasts.
browning for favor IL usually accom-
plished by heating the meat In a fry
ing pan In fat which has been fried out
Of pork or In suet or butter. Care
should be taken that the fat Is not
scorched. The chief reason for the
bad opinion In which fried food is held
by many is that II almost always
means eating burned fat. When fat is
heated too high II splits up into fatty
acids and glycerin. and from the gly-
GERM IL formed substance (acrolein)
which has a very irritating effect upon
the mucous membrane. All will recall
that the fumes OF scorched fat make
the eyes water. IL IL not surprising
that such a substance. II taken into the
stomach, should cause digestive dis
turbance. Fat In itself is very yalu-
able food, and the objection TO fried
foods because they may be fat seems
illogical IL they supply burned fat
there is a good reason for suspicion.
Many housekeepers cook bacon In the
oven on a wire broiler over a pan and
believe IL more wholesome than fried
bacon. The reason. OF course. is that
thus cooked In the oven there Is less
chance for the bacon becoming impreg-
mated with burned fat Where fried
salt pork is much used good cooks
know that IL must not be cooked over
a very hot fire. even II they have never
heard of the chemistry of burned fat.
Recipes for bean-pot roast and other
similar recipes may be varied by
browning the meat or part OF IL before
covering with water. This results in
keeping some OF the natural fayoring
within the meat itself and allowing less
to go into the gravy. The flavor OF
veal can be very greatly improved In
this way.

CLEANSING The FLAG
Admission of New States Causes
Rearrangement of Stars.
Change Not to Be Made Before July 4
1off-Present style FIXED
When Oklahoma
Came In.

Washington.-Wfth the admission of
Arizona and New Mexico into the
Union of states two more stars must
be added to the union or blue field of
the national flag. Under the law the
change will not be made before July 4,
1911. even should actual statehood be
accomplished before that date
The law governing the subject is con-
tanned in the act of congress approved
April 4, 1918, and embodied in section
1892, Revised Statutes. That act pro-
vides as follows:
"On the admission of new state
into the Union one star shall be added
to the union of the flag, and such addi-
July then next succeeding such admis.
sion"
Since July 4, 1906, the Official ar
rangement of the stars in the blue
field has been such as to permit the
addition of more stars without de-
stroying the symmetry of the design.
In none of the acts of congress relating
TO the flag has the manner of arranging
the stars been prescribed, and before
the date named there was lack of
uniformity in the matter.
Many flags In private use may be
seen with the stars arranged in various
ways. The early custom was to insert
the stars in parallel rows across the
blue field.
That custom. II is believed, has
been observed In the navy, at least.
since 1918.
After July 4, 1896. when Utah was
admitted to the Union, the As stars in
the flag were arranged in six rows, the
first, third and fifth rows having eight
stars. and tho second fourth and sixth
rows seven stars, as follows:

When the joint board rearranged the
stars. in 1908, to meet the case of Okla
homa 1t did so with full consideration
of possible future changes involved In
the eventual admission of additional
states. with special reference to the
cases of Arizona and New Mexico.
Therefore the admission of two more
tates will call for no radical rearrange-
ment of the stars, but simply the addi-
ton of two stars In that many of the
six rows which are ready for them.
The new field as officially prepared
will look probably as follows:
