ter, and cook very slowly for several
hours. II 1t cooks fast at a high tenn
perature 1t will be hard and tasteless,
but If cooked at a low temperature 1t
will become gelatinous and digestible.
Place the fish on a hot platter and
sprinkle over 1t some pork scraps
made by frying slices Of pork cut into
dice until crisp. Garnish the edge
with slices Of red boiled beet and
straws Of boiled carrot. Serve with an
egg sauce. Cook two eggs In boil

from three level tablespoons of but
ter and two level tablespoons of flour
rubbed together and added to one cup

SYMPATHY EXPRESSED
FOR MICHAEL SHULTz

Much sympathy is expressed at
the condition of Michael Schultz,
p. A. H.. II. '07 and a member of the
class of 1912, of Lafayette College.
Schultz is at present at the home of
his parents in Charles street in a
very weak condition as a result of
congestion of the spleens. This i'll
ness is characterized by a sharp
pain In the left side which comes
and goes at irregular intervals.
Schultz stated that the pain occurs
about four times yearly and has
caused him to give up athletics and
some times even forced him to keep
is bed for two or three weeks.
While a student of the Perth Am
boy high school. Schultz IA very
popular, being a star all-aroupd ath-
lete and one of the best that aver
supported the crimson and white.
He was captain of the successful
football tear of OF, the best crew
that the locals ever had on the grid
iron. He also led the varsity base
ball nine in the same year n had
all honors to himself. He was en-
We'd and liked by all his class and
schoolmates and the athletic teams
of the following year after his
graduation found themselves greatly
handicapped without Schultz's ser
vices.
At Lafayette he soon proved his
calibre and was given a position OF
the class baseball and football ag-
gregations. His work in baseball
was the feature of his class teams
work and he was given a regular
berth on the varsity baseball nine,
a mark which only about twenty out
of a thousand can acquire. He was
prohibited at this time from playing
on the gridiron on account of his
illness which has not left Schultz
at any long interval since.
Schultz desires a position as high
school instructor, although he does
not know where he will receive a po-
sition. His course at school for
high school teacher was very sue
cessful.
