This opening service will be followed

Another interesting question coming
down from the last convention is that of
q separate jurisdiction for the army and
the navy, with bishop in charge. At
the Cincinnati convention the Bishop of
Washington. the Rt Rev. Dr. Alfred
Harding. presented a memorial from the
chaplains of the army and the navy ask
ing that this action be taken. The whole
matter was referred to a joint commits
sion, composed of the Bishop of Washing
ton and the Bishop of California, the Rt
Rev. DIR. William Ford Nichols and two
clergymen and two laymen from the
house of deputies The commission will
report on this question at the coming
convention.
The Cathedral of st. John the Divine,
where this service will take place. Is one
OF the most famous sacred edifices in
America. Already more than twenty years
have passed since its corner stone was
laid, and 1t Is estimated that less than
a decade would be required for its COM
pletion II funds for the purpose were

had not been elected by representative
body of the church.
The result of the work of this conven-
ton was the constitution. the revision OF
the book of common prayer, a plan for
the election and consecretion of bishops
and the perfection of the national organ
iZation of the church
New York elected the Rev. DIR. Samuel
Provost and Pennsylvania named the
Rev. Dr. William White. These two went
to England, and they were consecrated in
Lambeth Palace February 4. 1857. by the
Archbishop of Canterbury. The presenter
was the Archbishop Of York. The Bishop
of Bath and Wells and the Bishop OF
Peterborough assisted i'm the conservation.
From this small beginning the conven-
ton has grown until il is now second in
importance to no other religious gather
ing in this country,
At the coming convention, many matters
of Importance to the future of the church
will come UP for consideration. Some or
these are pending from the last triennial
convention, which was held in Cincinnati.
One is the method of choosing the presld-
ing bishop. As now provided for by the
constitution the senior bishop is the pre-
siding bishop. and when he dies the next
in rank automatically succeeds him. The
seniority is regulated by the date OF con-
secration.
At the last convention an amendment
to the constitution was proposed which
provided that the presiding bishop should
be elected at each convention to serve
until the next convention. This amend
ment, by provision of the constitution,
had to go over until the next convention
Included in the business to come up VIII
be the proposition to pension the clergy
and their widows and orphans. and also
the proposition to change the name of the
church This latter question has been
receiving the attention of churchmen for
several years, and recently has been
much discussed.
Elaborate arrangements are being made
for the entertainment of the members OF
the convention. and committees composed
of the most prominent clergymen and lay
men in the diocese Of New York are pre-
pairing for the coming sessions. These
committees are working under the d.
rection of an executive committee, or

Rev. DR.. David H. Greer, is chairman

ART IN SETTING TABLE
INDIVIDUAL ARTISTIC TOUCH
COUNTS FOR MUCH THERE.
While There Are Some Absolutely
Fixed Rules for the Placing of the
Service, Arrangement Is Largely
Matter of Taste.

Everyone may not learn to set a
table artistically. but there are few
who cannot learn to set it much bet
ter than they do 1t is called art by
some. and as such should be recog'
nized by everyone
1t is not so much what Is put on the
table in the form of dishes, linen and
service, as how it is done. Unusual,
faddish setting of the table should
be avoided for the everyday or holi-
day meal. unless it would be for such
days as Halloween.
The setting for the table usually
falls to the daughter of the house, If
there is one; if not, the mother does
1t herself or directs how it should be
done If there is a helper in the home.
There Is no place in the entire home
which can show the individual artistic
touch of mother or daughter as the
table, and there are some absolutely
fixed rules for the placing of most of
the service.
In the first place, linens should be
spotless and white and as fine rs your
style of living will warrant, the sim
pier ones for everyday use and the
finer ones for special occasion.
They may be all this, but If not per-
fectly washed and ironed, the corners
Of the cloth folded perfectly, even the
very foundation of the table setting
will be failure
Table decorations should not be too
elaborate, and always in keeping with
the character of the day celebrated or
the desired color scheme used, writes
Alice G. Kirk in the Cleveland Lead
er. Thanksgiving day colors are usu-
ally yellow to correspond with the
pumpkin and chrysantkemum, which
is the usual flower of the day
The soup plate is on service plate,
which is an eight or ten-inch plate
Observe closely the accuracy with
which knife, fork, spoons, goblet and
other service are placed on the ia
BILE.
The soup spoon is placed to the
right of the knife and teaspoon and
the soup ladle to the right of the soup
spoon. Using left hand for removing
cover of tureen, you are ready to take
the ladle in right hand and serve soup,
which may be passed to the other
members of family at table
The water glass or goble. should al
ways be placed at end of knife blade.
The bread and butter plate is on the
left ide at end of fork. The silver is
always used for the outside toward
the plate, either from right or left.
Napkins should always be placed in
left side of fork
Twenty-four inches is the usual
space allowed for each cover or per-
! son.

SERVE FOR BREAKFAST
SOME RECIPES THAT ARE WELL
WORTH CONSIDERATIONS.
Egg Outlets viii Be Found a Worthy
Change From the old Styles
French Cooks Send Hints Con-
corning Other Dishes.

Egg Cutlets.-Chop up three hard
boiled eggs very fine and mix with
this two tablespoons bread crumbs,
one tablespoon grated cheese. a half
gill curry sauce. one tablespoon cream
and the yolk of one egg. Shape into
small outlets or balk, flour, egg and
bread crumbs them, then fry; then
drain we'll and serve, garnished with
fried parsley.
anchovy butter with sufficient good
white sauce to bring it to the proper
consistency; then stir into this some
sliced hard boiled eggs; place this
mixture in well buttered shells,
sprinkle the top of each shell with
bread crumbs and, If liked. a little
grated cheese; dot tiny pieces of but
ter over the surface and heat in the
oven. For the anchovy butter, wash.
bone and pound four anchovies; rub
this up smoothly with from two to
two and a half ounces of butter and
use. Shrimp butter is also excellent
used in the same way.
Oeufs Mollets.-Break some fresh
eggs into a pan of boiling water and
simmer them very gently for five min
utes, after which lift them out very
carefully and place them in cold wa
ter for ten minutes. Have ready some
small fire-proof dishes, place on egg
in each, pour a little tomato sauce
over and around them and just put
them in the oven till thoroughly hot.

Oeufs a la Livournaise.-Butt a
fire-proof dish. dust 1t with a season
ing of salt and red pepper and
sprinkle some finely chopped mush-
rooms on this; then slip four whole
eggs into this dish, being careful not
to break them; season with salt and
freshly ground black pepper and pour
4 spoon of cream over each: then
place in the oven till the eggs are set.
Pass a redhot shovel or salamander
over them to color them, and serve.
Oeufs a la Creole.-Cook a pan Of
tomatoes with one green pepper
lshredded) until the tomato is re-
duced by half, then po1r it on to five
rounds of buttered toast and place on

hot. Meanwhile melt one ounce of
butter in a pan over the fire and let 1t
color; then add a tablespoon of either
lemon juice or vinegar; let it all come

eggs. seasoning them with salt and
pepper.
