For tea purposes decided onion mix

n longer exclusively picnic
IN fare. but are IN daily use
f1f during winter for afternoon
USstssl tea, the hostess who Is going
TO make a hit is she who serves sand
wich novelties.
There is one or two essentials TO all
sandwich making. Chief OF these are
good bread and butter. Bread should
be preferably a day old. Of fine, close
grain, and evenly baked. When much
is used there should be special pans
for home baking, and sandwich loaves
are to be ordered from the baker. This
saves waste.
The bread should be cut evenly and
thinly. II the knife be heated cutting
is more quickly done. Crusts are not
cut off until the sandwich Is filled.
Butter should be soft enough to
spread easily. but not melted. Some
persons butter before slicing. but I'M
less the loaf Is square the slices are
not put together evenly. Otherwise
put the bread slice upon slice and but

shapely. The favorite form Just now
is round. though triangies and narrow
oblongs are also used. The thin slice
is spread as for a sandwich then
rolled in on itself until about the
thickness OF two fingers. Sharp bis
cult cutters are used for round shapes
after the slices of bread are put to-
gether with the filling.
Too great care cannot be taken in
shaping, as sandwiches Of uneven slzo
are not appstzlng and reflect upon
the social knowledge Of the hostess.
II made several hours before they
are used sandwiches are packed
closely together and wrapped In a

in a dry cloth.

Secretary Meyer Defied.

The Taft administration seems born
to trouble through ripping up the
Roosevelt policies. The latest develop
ment is the refusal of Chief Construc-
tor of the Navy Caps to retire at the
request of Secretary Meyer. The at
tempted reorganization of the stan of
the navy has created two factions who
are as hostile to each other as though
they were at war. The chief trouble
has been that, like DR.. P. NJ. Rixey, the
surgeon general who demanded that he
be given the title OF an admiral of the
line and be allowed to transact bust
ness with the president independent of
his superiors, they all want the high
titles.
Secretary George Won Longerke Meyer
does not seem able to control the bel
Hgerents, having no experience in
naval matters, his business being cot
ton manufacturing and banking, with
politics as plaything. Perhaps by or
dering out the horse marines he can
keep Caps out of the navy department
for a while at least.

Real Progress in the Air.

a notable performance. The flight

United Christian Sentiment.

The Christian people of Philadelphia
although not able to secure the reforms
in civic affairs that they would like
are uniting with commendable solidity
for higher ideals and a cleaner city
Among the forces working together In
the movement for moral uplift are. ac
cording to the Philadelphia North
American, the following organizations:
The Federation of Catholic Societies
The Christian Union.
The Christian Endeavor societies.
The Epworth league.
The knights of Columbus
Various protestant ministerial asso-
Citations.
The Children's Aid society.
The New Century club.
The Juvenile Protective league.
The public schools.
The women's auxiliary of the car
mems union.
The Catholic Federation represents
nearly all the distinctive lay societies
Of the venerable church, and the Chris
tian union is a federation of the So
cieties of the Protestant denomina-
lions.
When the religious and moral sense
of Catholic and Protestant alike unite
and work in harmony in behalf of
movements to build up higher ideals
and elevate and strengthen public NOR
ais, their efforts can never be fruit
less.
They may not accomplish their pur-

Of man who knows the name of an
other man, who knows a third man,
who is acquainted with a fourth man
who knows where the mayor has gone.
The mayor might have extended his
human chain until it embraced his en-
tire city, thus flattering the voters.
But he has seen fit to stop at four,
possibly in fear that death would snap
one of the links.
The scheme illustrates the dire
straits of the busy man of today who
wants to set away somewhere and re-
cuperate In quietude. Wherever he
goes within range of civilization the
telephone and the telegraph pursue
him. Time was when a captain of in
dustry could go aboard a ship bound
for Europe, stop a bit on the farther
shore, and return promptly, hearing no
news from home on either voyage. To-
day the passenger on a liner finds a
newspaper at the breakfast table, with
the latest news of both continents, in
Guiding stock exchange reports, flashed
by wireless.
When it comes to vacations, inven-
tive genius may prove a nuisance.
Mayor Rich, therefore, should not be
blamed too harshly for his efforts to de-
wise way of obtaining a rest without
going to Europe.
