oughly versed in food values, and other
branches of domestic science
For IL Is the woman of wealth and
leisure" said Mrs. Zurhorst today, who
has come to- recognize, more than any
other, the necessity of a woman's pos
sessing thorough knowledge of cook
ing and dietetfcs. In the first place, it is
necessary to the successful running of L
household. in this day of inefficient
and uncertain domestic service, no
young married woman can give a dinner
successfully without being able to plan
and direct Its preparation. This she
cannot do IL she is as ignorant aslis the
average young girl Of how to prepare
and serve meal.
Moreover, the housewife has usually
to train her own servants. If she is to
have a good cook, it deyolves upon her
to teach cooking; il a good maid, she
must oftener than not know how to
train this maid-even to the smallest de-
tail of serving a dinner.
The Thing Fiancees
Ought to Do.
Should brides-eIect go to cooking
school? Well II you know as I do the
ignorance of the average girl and the
inefficiency of the average servant, you
would not even ask me such a ques-
ton
Miss Rugg, of the Housekeepers' AL
lance. believes that half the friction in
cident to the running of the average
household would be averted if a cooking
school for brides-eIect were established.
1T would be all the more advisable"
she said today, because a training
school for domestics is hardly a practi-
cable thing. and the trained servant is
next to impossible to get. Why do 1
consider it impractical to establish a
training school for servants? Because
the history OF all training schools shows
that they cannot be self-supporting. A
woman may willingly pay fifty cents or

Got to Cook, Declares Miss
Rugg, of Housekeep-
erS' Alliance.
ONE OF THE FIRST
AIDS IN MATRIMONY
Young Society Girls in Washing
ton Are Taking Lessons in
the Kitchen.
By SELENE ARMSTRONG.

As a first aid to matrimony, learn to
cook. Or, If you are a bride-elect, don't
waste time thinking about a trousseau,
which Is of secondary Importance. The
thing essential to a happy married life
Is to know how to make the sort of
pies that your husbands mother used to
make.
For by cooking" declares Miss Ellen
NJ. Rugg, president of the Housekeep-
ers' Alliance, who believes that WASH
irgton brides-elect ought to be sent to
cooking school, I'VE do not mean Welsh
rarebit, kisses, and ingeniously shaped
sandwiches. These may sustain life
during the engagement period, but
when a man marries, We all know that
roast beef and\other substantial things
are necessary to his happines. That is
one of the several reasons why be-
lieve in cooking school for the bride
elect"
Now, over there is New Jersey 800
women or more have banded together
for the establishment of a training
school which shall instruct in the art
of cooking all girls who contemplate
matrlmony. These brides-elect may per-
feet themselves in domestic science for
the modest sum of $45; or they may take
ten cooking lessons-a sufficient num-
Ter, probably, to prevent their hus-
bands from becoming victims OF acute
indigestion before the honeymoon Is
over-for the sum of SIS.
Pupils Are in
Greatest Demand.
And In New Jersey the girl who goes
to cooking school is at a premium in
the matrimonial market.
In order to compete with her, so au-
thoritIes here declare, the Washington
girl must take to cooking school, and
at once.

The lecture by Gardiner F. Williams,
president of the University Club, on the
subject of African diamonds, to be de-
livered at the club house on Saturday
evening, will be information from a man
wio really knows. Mr. Williams spent
a long time in South Africa, where he
was the friend and associate of Cecil
Rhodes, Alfred Belt, Barney Barnato
and all that brilliant coterie. For
many years he was the general manager
of the De Beers Consolidated Mines,
which produce % per cent of the worlds
diamonds. He is a delightful gentle
man and an attractive speaker. The
members and their guests have a treat
in store.

one dollar for the lesson which her cook
takes, but often the materials used IN,
the lesson necessarily cost more than
this.
cess Of the cooking school is this: There
is no inducement held out to the trained
servant. Does she get higher pay, short
er hours, or choicer work? No. Then
what incentive has she to spend time
and money in equipping herself2
Women may desire trained servants,
but they are unwilling to cooperate
with the training school to tho extent Of
backing it financially, or giving IL the
moral support that such an institution
needs in order to exist. And so, there
are nc trained servants in America. The
woman OF wealth in this country Sc
cures the foreign trained servant, and
the American housewife in average cir
cumstances Is content to make the best
OF a bad bargain. so far as her cook or
her housemaid is concerned.
Housewives Must
Know the Kitchen.
And the domestic problem will never
be solved untfl the housewife herself
learns how the cooking and the clean
ing is done. l wish we could see every
Washington 0ride-elect go to a cooking
school"
"Olii'H VI we" jersey are plainlLAS
to establish in every large city Of that
State schools in which domestics,s and
girls contemplating matrimony can take
a course of instruction in cooking.
Pledges Of support from 1000 women
will be secured to insure the financial
success of the enterprise. Each sGb-
scriber will be asked to pledge $ an
nually TO support the training school,
and for each domestic which any. house
wife secures from the institution, she
will paw fee of S. The employees en-
rolled in the training school will be ex-
pected to pay 81 annual as enrolment
fee, and 81 upon obtaining a position.
And a bride-elect can learn to cook
for s45.
