fellows. Thus may be described a
single one of the campaigns, of which
many are held during the year.
Strictly speaking, by-product of
the work is the changed impression of
university life which gets out among
the high school boys, particularly in
the towns visited. They have thought
of the university student as rather
stylish fellow, with cigarette in his
mouth, his cap little on one side
and full fedged swagger. They meet
an entirely different kind of student.
The kind with all the ability and
qualities of leadership, but who does
not smoke cigarettes, who INDUCES in
no braggadocio talk, and one who
shows a real interest in the high
school fellows and their welfare.
Thus is developed a more whole
some respect for the Christian reli-
gion, and, in addition, by the constant
personal work scores of fellows are
brought face to face with the practl-
cal every day sort of Christianity
which the university students believe
in and which many of them are try
ing to practice.

Geneva, Oconomowoc and East Troy.
Besides the general wholesome infiu-
ence of their visit, forty-four older
boys and men made decisions for the
Christian life, and many who had al
ready made that decision took ad-
vanced ground.
Trains Men for Service.
Each year many young men who
have gotten their training in the
Young Mems Christian association are
going out to occupy places of useful
ness and service in the world. In the
Far East there are at the present time
a score of men who we're active in the
University Y. M. G.. A., and who
since graduation have gone to the mis-
sion field to occupy high places of
leadership and of unusual opportunity.
Three of them were secretaries Of the
Y. M. c. A. at the University of Wis
cOnsin.

One Of the secretaries of the asso-

meets the pastors of the local
churches, who have already agreed to
invite one of these teams to spend
from five to eight days in the town,
going over with them very definitely
the ways in which the teams have
previously gotten the best results.
During the days Of the campaign
the members of this team are ire

their morning or afternoon in inter
views and the rest of the day they are
mingling with the older high school
boys, skating, playing games, or any
thing to get the interest of the young

About as Far as He Could Go.
On the first Of the month there was
to be a shift in studies in some Of
the public school grades, and a young
son was consulting his father. He
had finished with ancient history,
which was ancient arbitrarily up to
the time of the Christian era. s'How
far did you get in it?" asked the sire.
''Down to Zero" responded the heir.

thing to do with a person. To let

grew out of trying ordeal passed

PAPER BAG
COOKING
Great System Perfected by M.
Soyer, Famous London Chef.
PERFECT ROAST MUTTON.
Ry Martha MccuIIoch Williams.

BY Martha McCuIIoch Williams.
Writing so much of cakes and
sweets and formal dinners that can be
cooked in paper bags has brought me
almost to the pass where | feel sur
feited of such fare. 1t has made me
wonder, too, if my readers will not
be likewise glad to get back to home
lier fare, at least for one day, and
that fare possibly perfect roast NUT
ton.
Choose a saddle, if you want the
very best. Buy it day ahead of the
cooking, have the rib-ends cut short
and neatly rounded, wash it quickly,
salt it very, very lightly, brush over
with melted butter and vinegar-a tea
spoonful of each mixed-and keep in
a cool, airy place until ready for cook
ing. If it is hanging outside, it should
be we'll wrapped in damp cheese cloth
and hence will need no more washing
when brought in for cooking. Grease
a bag that will be loose lit, very
thickly, clarified drippings answering
for this better than butter. Sprinkle
meat, also a very little more salt, red
and black pepper, and few drops of
tobasco, chilli vinegar or Worchester-
shire sauce. Melt teaspoonful of tart
Jelly, currant or crabapple, in spoon
full of claret, lemon juice or vinegar,
add a teaspoonful Of good butter, mix
we'll, and brush the meat well over
oi n
der for the gravy later on. Slice an
onion very thin and lay upon top OF
the meat Place it in your creased
bag with a little more butter, seal,
cook in hot oven five to seven min
utes, then slack heat halt and finish
the cooking, allowing eighteen to
twenty minutes to the pound:
Layer beef is hearty, tasteful and
not too costly. Get as much round
meat as you need, have it cut in thin
slices and the slices divided length
wise into strips. Make a.square or
oblong mold from a paper bag, but
ter it well, after clipping the corners
firmly, lay upon the bottom either
toasted breadcrumbs or thinly sliced
potatoes and onions, dot with butter
and cover with layer of beef, cut to
fit the mold neatly, and seasoned with
salt and pepper. Butter the meat on
both sides if you like things very
rich. Repeat the layers until the
mold is full, then pour over a little
milk and enough tomato catsup to
moisten the upper layer. Dot with
bits of butter. Set the mold inside
creased bag, put on trivet in the oven,
using either upper or lower shelf,
and cook thoroughly, allowing twenty
minutes to the pound
Liver and bacon are not beyond the
paper bag. Slice the liver thin, sea-
son it as for frying, put it in we'll
creased bag, lay bacon slices all over
it, seal and cook for fifteen minutes
five in a hot oven; ten after stacking
heat. Keep the heat full five minutes
longer if you like it very crisp.

VINO W6e CerVanteS? -CorVanto
was Spanish author, born about
4547, and died 1916. He suffered
many misfortunes, and for the most
part lived poor and friendless; yet
ne was the greatest writer that Spain
ever produced. Don Quixote was his
principal work.
Who were the Mimi of the Romans?
The mimi were buffoons who ap-
peared at convivial meetings to en-
teTtain the guests by their farcical
Aumor The word mimicry is derived
&herefrom.
How did the term "Stationer" orig
Jnate ?-When books were multiplied
by the invention of printing, they
were sold by booksellers at stalls sta
toned at the gates of universities
sand other places; hence, booksellers
became known as stationarii, or sta
tioners, by which designation they
were long chiefly known.
Why is Texas frequently referred
TO as an Empire?-Because of it's vast
area, out of which you could carve
nine Ohios, ten Indianas, or 210
Rhode Islands. She is large enough
TO hold every man, woman, and child
in the United States and provide a
farm of ten acres for every family of
i've.
When was the Friction Match In
Wented?-The Loco-foco, or friction
match, was first invented by John
Walker, an English chemist, in 1929.
They began to find their way to the
United States in 1881 and sold for
one cent each.
What is meant by the Balance of
gNature?-It has been thought that ma
Gnre has adjusted a delicate balance
between the production and destruc-
ton of animal life, and that man may
eindiscreetly interfere to disturb this
arrangement.
When did the Hebrews begin their
weekly Sabbath?-They began it at
sunset on the sixth day (Friday), and
ended it at sunset on the seventh
Saturday.; this arrangement was
determined by the scriptural phraseol-
Ogy which reads land the evening
and the morning were the first day."

they occupy to-day in Dame Fash

TWO CONSIDERATIONS.
In buying fur, there are two
things to consider-getting what

will carefully analyze for you later
in our little chat-end getting what
you pay for. Sadly enough. there
is no pure fur law" So, If you

you a masquerading animal all you
like, but you will get no redress.
Therefore, if you want to be safe,
il you want to make your fur pur-
chase not an extravaganza but q
way of putting yourself In pos
session of a lasting property, be
sure you deal with one OF the many
honest, reliable, truth-telling houses
in your city, and supplement all
this with a little careful study of
your subject.

accepted fact this Winter.

the woman of limited means, who
wants a long haired soft colored
dark fur, I recommend mink,
fisher, fox or raccoon in a de-
scending scale of prices. Further
economy may be prsctised by add
ing mere finish Of fur to plush,
velvet or heavy fur cloth muff and
stole.
These long haired brown furs
add richness OF coloring to the
brunette type and are charming
on the woman who Is not very
stout.
For the pink and white blonde
there are silver fox, white fox,
black lynx and the black and
white civet cat.
FOR THE STOUT.
For the woman Of embonpoint
there are the short-haired furs OF
subdued coloring - mole, seal,
broadtail and Persian.
The most beautiful light fur of
the Winter is the creamy fitch
with its dark brown markings

So In a trance of joy, literally
