ADJOURN UNTIL THURSDAY
Turkish ENJOYS Will Refer Matter
to Constantinople.
THE QUESTION OF MEDIATION
Servian Delegation Head Says Choice
Of United States Would Be
Excellent One.

LONDON. December 11.--An obstacle
was encountered early today by the
p1enipotentiaries of the Balkan allies
and OF the Ottoman empire who are
gathered here with the object of bring
ing about peace. The absence of
Greeces signature to the armstice
protocol was the cause of the hitch in
the proceedings, and the delegates
found ii necessary to adjourn without
effecting any real business. They will
not meet again until late Thursday
afternoon and in the meantime Will
communicate with their home govern
ments-
After the adjournment. DIR. s. paneff,
tho leader of the Bulgarian delegation
and the president OF todays meeting of
The conference. confirmed the report that
the question OF the protocol had been
under discussion without a decision be-
ing reached.
1t is understood that the powers OF the
Turkish penipotentiaries do not author
;ze them to recognize the Hellenic dele
gates unless Greece signs the armistice,
ard therefore they were obliged to defer
the matter TO Constantinople before
proceeding with the conference

Greeks Refuse to Sign.

IIle Greek representatives refused to
sign the protocol when invited to do so
today. pointing out that 1t would make
10 practical difference, as the allies were
united and the decisions reached by the
members of the Balkan League would be
binding on Greece equally with the other
members of the federation.
The formal official report OF today's
meeting of the peace conference says:
THE meeting of the conference has
been adjourned until Thursday at
o'clock in the afternoon because the
Turkish delegates are not able to proceed
with the negotiations until after they
have received instructions from their gov
ernment at Constan'inople-
The text of the official communication
on the subject OF the cause Of the ad-
iournment of the conference Is as fol-
lows:
The delegates proceeded to the verifi-
cation Of their full powers. The Turkish
delegates having declared that their full
power only authorized them. in conformi-
ty with the stipulations of the armistice.
TO negotiate with the three states which
had signed the aforesaid armistice. it was
decided that the Ottoman delegation
would ask for fresh instructions from the
Turkish government"

MACARONI AND CHEESE
DISH NOT SERVED AS OFTEN AS
IT DESERVES.
Excellent for Luncheon or for the
Evening Meal Without Meat--Ita-
ian Method Of Preparation
Somewhat Too Rich.

Macaroni with cheese is the most
usual combination. This Is a dish suf-
lciently nourishing to be served for
luncheon or for an evening meal with
out meat 1t is too heavy TO be served
with other starchy vegetables, as po-
tatoes or beans The foreign way Of
cooking macaroni is to boil about
twenty minutes. Drain and return to
the saucepan with enough gravy or
rich soup stock to nearly cover. Al
low this to simmer until the gravy
has been absorbed. Prepare a cupful
Of grated Parmesan and other cheese
mixed. Put one-half with the maca-
roni until the cheese Is melted. Add
tae remainder and good-sized lump
OF butter. Stir the macaroni around
in the pan in one direction until the
cheese is thoroughly melted Serve
hot. Americans, preferring less rich
dish, simply boil the macaroni, drain
and put it back into the saucepan with
grated cheese. It is served when the
cheese is melted, but not hardened
We call this macaroni au gratin, but
au gratin dishes proper are scalloped
ones including bread or cracker
crumbs as well as cheese.
= Baked Macaroni and Cheese. Take
about one-half as much macaroni as
will fill the baking DISH Break into
short pieces and boil for twenty min
utes in sailed water Drain. Put into
baking dish with butter, salt and
quantity of cheese Cover with milk
and bake until the milk is absorbed
and 1t Is brown on top
Cheese canapes are small slices OF
bread fried in a little butter until
golden brown. Then they are covered
with grated cheese, seasoned with salt
and pepper and placed in the oven to
soften the cheese. Some add little
French mustard to the cheese to give
it piquancy.
Cottage cheese is becoming more
and more popular for salads at dainty
affairs 1t lends itself to any decora-
tive scheme so nicely, it is delicious
and cooling to the palate. The sim
plest way to arrange this salad is to
moisten with French dressing and
make it into balls or egg-shape and ar
range in crisp lettuce leaves. With
a little green vegetable coloring ex-
tract the balls of cheese may be deli
cately tinted to resemble birds eggs.
Cottage cheese lends itself to many
combinations of chopped nuts, chopped
olives, green or red peppers 1t will
mix with French dressing or mayon-
naise and can be nodded into any de-
sired shape 1t is a nice accompani-
ment to fruit salad or is salad IN

SERVING MEANS MUCH
PROPERLY PLEASING THE EYE
IS HALF OF THE MEAL.
Artistic MoIds for Food One Of the
Best Forms Of Giving satisfac-
ton Desserts, In Particular,
May Be Thus Displayed.

Half the pleasure Of eating Is
, through the eye. II food is well
served and cooked, meal is a sue
cess. though the quantity and variety
OF the food may he limited.
Molds play a LARGE part in this
dainty service. Everything. from fish
to dessert, can be nodded
The ordinary mold is OF heavy tin
but the woman who objects to using
tin, especially for acids, for which
tin should never be used, can buy
earthenware or aluminium These
last two cost more, and in them there
are fewer shapes.
Various sizes can be had. from a
quart to many quarts. The very
large ones are made to order Indi.
vidual molds are also popular, though
the large ring or form shapes are
more convenient and more fashion
able for general use.
Probably the favorite mold for most
purposes is q hollow ring, round or
oval. The round ones are better liked,
but either shape is good. These come
with a lid for desserts that must be
frozen, and without one for aspic,
mousse, blanc mango and vegetables.
With one Of these ring molds the
clever hostess can even glorify hash
or vegetable left-overs. Macaroni, put
in a ring, with the center filled with
creamed chicken, lamb or fish, makes
an appetitizing dish.
Mashed potatoes may be quickly
formed into a hollow ring with one
Of these molds, the center being
filled with lamb chops, creamed
sweetbreads or fried chicken.
A simple dessert might have the
ring of chocolate blanc mango, with
nuts mixed through it, the center be
ing filed with whipped cream. This
may be slightly stiffened with gela-
tine if it win not bold it's shape.
Nothing is prettier than round or
oval ring mold ice cream heaped high
with fruit in its season, strawberries,
raspberries, peaches, oranges and
bananas. Homemade ice cream serv-
ed this way has all the air of a nov
city dessert. For further adornment
whipped cream may be put on the
top of fruit through a tube to make
fancy forms.
Another good-lool1ing dessert has
sponge cake or cottage pudding bat
ter baked in oval rings, large or in
dividual, the center filled with char
lotte russo. or Bavarian cream dotted
with whipped cream in fancy design;
a similar design is arranged around
the base of the cake. Cottage pud.
ding rings can be filled with fruit
tapioca, orange or pineapple.
Many of the hollow ring molds have
fancy shapes, cones, turrets or flow
ers, but where pennies count the
plain ones are more practical for all
uses. Moreover, it takes skilful
cook to empty the contents of fancy
mold without marring it.

JOE WOOD, GREATEST TN|RLER IN HE BIG LEAGUES, ONCE
 PITCHED FUR TUCSON TEAM

crazy people of Tucson raised $5GOO for ball tournament in the old Pueblo. Phoenix sent east and got the celebrated Browns, several of whom are now in the big leagues, to represent this city. Bisbee also sent east and imported an entire team. Globe secured the Middleton, Teyas ieaguers while Douglas and Hermo- sillo came through with good fat outfits. Tucson, rather than import an entire team. raised several hun. dred dollars and sent H. Ii. Wynkoop. the umpire, on a scouting tour through Texas, New Mexico and Colo rado. Wynkoop rounded up a team but when the tournament started it was seen that his pitchers were rot as good as the twirlers of the other teams and the Tucson fans sent up groan of despair. However, when the tournament was two days old. a ragged, unkcmpt, trampylooking duffer blew into the ball park one morning when the Tucson boys were practicing, and introduced himself to Wynkoop and the writer as a ball player.
 ''Where have you played?" asked Wynkoop.
 "Oh. around Texas a little," was the response of the scarecrow.
 What do you play?' he was asked.
 q pitch some" was the response.
 Nynkoop immediately called Big Allen the Tucson backstop over and told him to try the stranger out.
 Stiff and sore, the stranger heaved a few over to Allen, when the big catcher suddenly stopped him with the remark that he was as stiff as an old army mule end would never do. iLater it was understood that the scarecrow walked from Fl Pasu 10 Tucson). Allen was for having the stranger meander on his way. but WynkoOp was desDeratd. and de- cided to give the Texan a tryout in that afternoons game, whether hs was stin or not.
 True to his promise, WynkOop put the stranger in that afternoon and the lauky lad rom Texas made the opposing team look like a bunch of monkeys. Later on in the week he was used again with the same result. No one had thought to ask the pitch. CT his name. and he was known simply as 'Rube" After the tourna- ment however. when he had succeed ed in pitching Tucson into a tie with Phoenix for first, WynkOOp, the writ. CT and several others took the strang- CT into the tournament committed s office to pay him off and there learned that his name was Joe Wood. On the money paid him for his pitching in Tucson and later for twirling Tucson into victory at the Phoenix tourna. ment. Joe Wood hiked east to ask a tryOut from some one of the Glass E teams Eventually he was signed by the Boston Americans and today is the pitching sensation of the country.
