TRIPLES THAT MEAN ECONOMY
May Appear Small, but in the Course
of Time VIII Be Found to
Amount to Much.

The familiar Waldorf salad made Of
apples, celery and nuts takes on
new air If the ingredients are all
shredded instead of being cut In dice
shaped pieces or broken bits. IL
pistachio nuts are ground fine and
aprinkled over the top the green ad-
dition will add to the sightliness of
the dish and the nuts themselves will
improve the flavor. If red is wanted
few thin wedges of apple may re-
tain their red skin.
Roast turkey left from dinner
makes delicious salad, mixed with cell
cry seasoned with capers and dressed
with mayonnaise. The usual direc-
lions call for equal parts OF meat and
celery. but there is no hard and fast
rule. The amount of the meat on
hand and the taste of the family are
strong considerations.
Two towels sewed together on two
sides and one end, the top turned
over and a cord run through the cas-
ing near the top make an excellent
soiled linen bag.
Bottles which have contained olive
oil are cleaned the most satisfactory
with ammonia.
For q sick room two or three COW
ers for dishes sent up on tray are
made of embroidery hoops with
cheese cloth stretched tightly between
them. Several squares of the cheese
cloth In exactly the right size are
convenience. They should be hemmed.

ACGIES TO CHALLENGE
CONWAY HIGH TEAM
From Fridays Daily.

From Fridays Daily.
In order to put the team in as good
shape, as possible the Aggie team has
employed Weaver Cowan as their
coach for the next few days. The
Aggies will make bid for the cham
pionship of the state in the secondary
class and has issued a challenge to
Conway high school for games next
week. The Conway team now stands
leader among the secondary schools,
but the Agges, too, claim that they
have won sufficient games to be
awarded the pennant. If the games
are secured for Conway the state
championship will then be decided.
Mr.. Cowan is working with the Ag-
gies each afternoon and the team is
showing up excellent. It is to be
hoped that the games will be arrang-
ed with the Conway team next week.

CENTRAL COLLEGE
FUND Is GROWING
ENTHUSIASM IS SHOWN
GIFTS AGGREGATING $3.50 AN
NOUNCED AT LAST NIGHTS
MEETING.

From Tuesdays Daily.
Enthusiasm ran high at the Bap-
fist church last night Although the
meeting was not advertised until the
afternoon, a splendid crowd assem-
bled, attracted by the wish to see
how the fund for Central College had
grown, and also the expection of a
breezy speech by Will D. Upshaw,
the Georgia cyclone-on crutches."
Nobody got the dollar bill that was
offered to the man who went to sleep,
and at the rally to be held tonight
the premium to the man who goes to
sleep has been increased to 81. The
imam from Georgia" spoke on EN-
thusiasm in Good Things" and kept
the crowd rolling with laughter for
the first ten minutes, and then for
the last half of his brief but stirring
speech he portrayed that nobility of
character and citizenship which
comes from big-hearted giving, to
any noble cause. Rev. John Jeter
Hurt made the gratifying announce
ment that, although they had not yet
presented the subscription list, one
gift of $1,000, another of $500, anoth-
er Of $3.50 (this from young NAM :,
and 800 from a young lady in town.
He said he expected to make
an interesting announcement about
the plans and also put on the black
board tonight at the church the
names of the contributors up to date.
The meeting tonight will come
within an hour-8:15 to 9:15-and
will be lively from start to finish.
Rev. James Gordon Harris, educa-
tional secretary from Little Rock, is
here to help push the campaign.
The students of both Ouachita and
Henderson-Brown colleges are still
talking enthusiastically about the
visit of William D. Upshaw, who is
known as the Georgia Cyclone ac>
cording to report from Arkadel-
phia.
1t is universally agreed that his
speeches were the most inspiring
chapel events of the college year, and
when he left Henderson-Brown Sat
urday morning to take the train for
Conway, President Crowell led the
student body in giving the Georgian
the chautauqua salute.

tions as to the further cultivation

Avoids Scorchlnq.

Many housekeepers do not know
that there is simple way to prevent
potatoes from burning and sticking
to the bottom Of the pot. An inverted
pie pan placed in the bottom OF the
pot avoids scorching potatoes. The
water and empty space beneath the
pan save the potatoes. This also
makes the work of cleaning pots
easier, as no adhering parts of pota-
toes are left to be secured out.-Popu-
lar Mechanics.

Bay Tree Beliefs.

Long before the time of Shakespeare
the bay tree was an object OF super
stition. The whitening of such a tree
was believed to be a sure indication OF
coming misfortune to those with whom
It was in any way connected. Shake
speare gave voice to the superstition
In "Richard H." when he made one OF
his characters say:
IT'S thought the king is dead; we'll not
stay Ia.
The bay trees In our country are WITH
cred.
1t was thought by the ancients that
lightning would never harm this tree
and 1t was customary among them to
carry bay leaves as a charm against
the thunderbolts Of Jove. The same
belief was long prevalent in England
and reference to it may be found II

Grace Knives.

There is a curious class of knives Of
the sixteenth century the blades of
which have engraved on one side the
musical notes to the benediction Of the
table, or grace before meat, and on the
other the grace after meat. These
knives usually went in sets Of four,
representing d four part harmony of
bass, tenor, alto and treble. They
were kept in an upright case of stamp
ed leather and were placed before the
singers according to the adaptation of
each one to his particular part. AS
may be supposed, the inscription was
usually In Latin. The following speci-
men is taken from actual knives of
the period: PRO tuis beneficiis Deus,
gratias agimus tibi" (For thy good
gifts, o God, we thank thee).
