SUNDAY SKATING, DANCING
 AND BASEBALL STOPPED AT
 WALNUT BEACH, PLACE OF REST

Acting under a complaint registered by the Walnut Beach Improvement Association, Deputy Sheriff J. M. Ma her of Milford yesterday closed the skating rink at Walnut Beach and the dance hall at Harrison Park. Sherln Maher, acting under the same source, Sunday issued orders that all pal cannes must be stopped on the diamond near the Walnut Beach station.
 The residents of Walnut Beach, most of whom are members of the improve ment association, consider that the beach is not a place of amusement, but one for quiet and rest. They be- iieye that the constant grinding of the organ at the skating rink on Sunday and dancing at the other place tends to give a bad name to the Beach, and to keep desirable patronage away from it.

The detectives are maintain ing their usual secrecy as to the na- ture of the new evidence. Arrange ments are being made for a speedy trial of CriDpen and this fact alone is considered proof that the prosecution believes it will have no difficulty in proving the identity of the body, as without such proof there could not be a conviction and there would be no reason for a trial.

TO MAKE DEvONsHlRE CREAM.
Let Milk Stand Until a Good Head Of

Point.

A reader who was interested in a
recipe for making Devonshire cream
has kindly written as follows. regard
ing method of procedure: Il used to,
work In a dairy at home where De-,
vonshire cream was one Of our spe-,
cialties. The way we made ours was
to let the milk stand till good head
of cream rose on it. Then we lifted
the tin containing 1t onto copper
boiler of water, hot, but not boiling,
and let 1t simmer until done. In this
way, the cream is made sweeter.
though good results can ke obtained
either way. One advantage In water
scalding is that you cannot burn the
cream as you might with stove scald,
Ing. Care must be taken not to have
the milk tin too full or it will sink
The water must be of sufficient guam,
tity to float the milk tin. Our copper
was generally built In house. but IN
my opinion where a stove Is used
large deep pan filed with water
would answer the same purpose"
