Ambitious Principals.


Statements contained in Superin-
tendent Mackey's report to the Board
of Education, suggest the desirability,
if not the necessity, of the board
reading the riot act" to some of the
principals and teachers, who appear
to be more interested in obtaining sal
airy increases than in working for the
interests of the children. "The pre-
sumably greater honor and the dein-
itely larger salary for principals of
grammar schools as compared with
principals of primary schools" said
DR.. Mackey, unite to stir up the am
bition of the principals of the primary
schools to retain their pupils and or
ganize grammar grades, SO as to have
all grades in their respective schools"
Zeal and interest in their schools, on
the part of principals, are in some re-
spects to be commended; but when
they interfere with the system as
must necessarily be the case when "in
at least ten different buildings more
or less determined efforts have been
made during the year to retain pupils
and organize still higher grades, in
some cases even to the extent of plac-
ing the lower grades on four-hour ses-
sions in order to vacate the necessary
higher-grade classes" the interference
approaches INSTRUMENTATION, and calls
for disciplinary measures.

SOME LUNCHEON DISHES.

These dishes are suitable for either
luncheon or supper:
When there are bits Of leftover
chicken (not enough for a meaD pre-
pare it by cutting it in small pieces,
add to a white sauce and a cupful OF
tender cooked celery. Serve on
rounds of buttered toast.
When there are a few slices Of cold
roast pork left from dinner, chop and
mix with equal parts of celery, add
dressing and serve Oh lettuce leaves.
Veal and lamb are equally good
served in this way.
Milk toast is a most delicious dish
for supper. Prepare the toast. not
later than five minutes before serv-
ing; dry it in the oven until hot, then
toast a golden brown; dip the edges
into hot water to soften, spread gen
erously with butter and pour over a
white sauce made of two tablespoon
fuls each Of butter and flour cooked
together and a cup of thin cream or
rich milk added. Two cups will be
needed for a large dish Of toast. a lit
tie grated cheese of pronounced flavor
grated over the dish just before serv-
ing adds to it.
Bits of bacon left from breakfast
aided to a white sauce and served
with poached eggs is a change that is
lutte acceptable from the everyday
poached eggs.
The old-fashioned Goldfish served in
a good white sauce with steamed or
baked potatoes is a dish which most

If one has a little cold boiled ham
chop it and add it to a thick white
sauce, which may be used to cover
broiled chops; then fry in deep fat
and serve piping hot. The chop will
need to be treated to egg and crumbs,
as are c~roquettes.
Fish chowder is another dish which
may be served at almost any meal
except breakfast.
Hash served in mounds with a
poached egg on each is a nice way to
serve both of these common dishes.
Potatoes scalloped and seasoned
with cheese or mixed with hard
cooked eggs varies that time-honored
dish. The addition of a few fresh
mushrooms is relished by most.
