ROARING Waqs,

The Red Lion club was composed of
great Englishmen, and Huxley was
one of the members. The club used to
meet during the session of the British
association. To certain meeting at
Ipswich, England, which Huxley de-
scribed in his Letters" some foreign
ers were invited. the Prince of Canine,
Bonaparte's nephew. among them, and
greatly astonished they were at the
exceedingly human behavior of the
learned professors. The Red Lion men
had a custom of roaring instead of
cheering and of wagging one coattail-

prince was much impressed by these
proceedings. and when be stood up to

Fish and Game Law

The fish and game law requiring any
one to pay a nonresident license for
hunting in Vermont is to be tested in
Barre where an Italian who has lived in
that city for 10 or ~ years, but has
never been naturalized, has been refused
a residents licence. 1t might seem to
some that living SO long in town would
entitle man to the same license as his
neighbor who is citizen can secure.
But this Italian has for long term of
years enjoyed the free public schools, the
use of the free public highways, and
streets on the same terms as the citizen
who is subject to military service and
many other duties of citizenship. He
has enjoyed privileges the citizen does
not have and it does not seem unreason.

First Actress In London.

1t was a warm reception that was
given to the first French players to
appear in London in 1929. Their visit
was an utter failure 1t was notable,
however, for the important innovation
which was the chief cause of their
unpopularity.
The luckless troupe introduced ac-
tresses for the first time on the Eng
fish stage-''thereby giving just offence
to all vertuous and well-disposed per-
sons in this town. wrote Thomas
Brande. rejecting the spirit of the
playgoer of that time. who was used
to seeing boys take the, female char

pin pelted from the stage" The first
move against this prejudice was not
long delayed. however. Five years
later another French company came to
London with women players, under
royal patronage. and We're received
with good appreciation at the Cock
pit in Whitehall. London Graphic.

w. C.. T. u. Work at The Fair

For the benefit of the unions, who do
not have members at our tent at the fair
and are unacquainted with our work as
superintendent of this work submit the
following report. First we wish to thank
the association for the kindness and
courtesy extended each year, and for al
lowing us the same stand, each year,
which seems to be just the place we need
as we are where they pass on and off
past here and SO many tired mothers rest
here, we wish to ask the Association to
allow us this same spot each year as we
plan to have thu rest rooms on the
grounds every year.
Many people come to the fair, who
would not attend were it not for the
W. G. T. U. rooms. There is less disturb
ance on the grounds each year. We
noted the first year which was five years
ago, it was noisy and riotous at all hours
of the night but last year and this, it was
as orderly and quiet as at our own house
Through the efforts of the association
the fair is improving rapidly morally, less
gambling this year than ever before.
May the time hasten when there will be
none at all. We believe in the fair as
Dent fit to the farmers. Competition IS a
good thing in business; we meet, ex-
change ideas and benefit thereby. This
was the busiest year as yet at the tent,
the middle day the tent was thronged;
several who were i'll were left at the tent
and many children found comfort here.
OverAw hundred registered from this
and several other states. Much good
literature given away. The services at
the tent, conducted by Rev Mr.. Best of
Morrisvllle, were at ! o'clock and there
was goodly number present. We trust
much good may be done from this work
like bread cast upon the waters. We had
some furniture given us this year for
which we thank the donor but We are in
need of chairs. Anyone, having chairs
they do not use, who would be glad to
contribute to help the work along, can
communicate with Mrs. G. F. Tillotson,
Morrisville. Any gifts for the tent will
be thankfully received. If several OF our
members would give OF solicit one chair
zach we would soon be supplied. We
wish to thank North Hyde Park for the
quilt given this year. Our work is done
at the tent free for the good of the public,
nothing sold. May God bless and prosper
this work in the future as in the past, is
my prayer and may the White ribboners
ali over this county join with US. The
harvest is great but the laborers are few.
More helpers are needed at the tent next
wear. One is needed to superintend at
the literature table, one to- have charge
of registering and two to wait upon the
visitors.
The Morrisville Union has kindly
helped each year. but we feel the need of
helpers and plan to appoint these before
hand next year. We know this to be one
of the most important branches of the
w. C. T. U. we come in contact with the
public in general, who are not interested

''This is the best thing on the grounds"
and leave liberal offering.

WAYS OF USING CORN.

Green corn is usually preferable IN
most of these dishes, although the
canned will give good results.
AS a vegetable, corn is so often
served with butter and milk, and this
monotony grows tiresome. A salad,
souffle, fritters and any number OF
combinations are good.
Corn Souffle.-Melt tablespoonful
of butter and add to it a tablespoonful
of sifted -four; stir until smooth, then
add one by one three beaten egg
yolks and cup of hot milk. Cook
until smooth, add cup of corn, fresh
or canned, season with salt and pep
per, then fold in the we'll beaten
whites. Put into a buttered mold or
into individual molds and bake in a
hot oven twenty minutes. Serve IN
the dish in which it is baked.
Baked Tomatoes and Corn.-Select
small-sized tomatoes of uniform size,
scoop out the pulp from the stem end
without peeling; turn upside down and
drain. Mix cup of corn with two
esBRS, d tablespoonful VI putICl elhd OAAS
of flour, creamed together; season
well with salt and pepper fill with the
mixture and bake in a moderate oven
twenty minutes. Serve with garnish
of parsley.
Corn SaTad.-This is best with fresh
ly boiled corn cut from the cob. Use
equal quantities of corn and freshly
boiled rice; season and add sufficient
mayonnaise. Serve in lettuce cups,
very cold.
If one can get fresh clans, corn
and clans make a most delightful
combination. Chop half a green pep
per and a slice of onion together; cook
in a quarter of a cupful of butter I'M
til soft, add a quarter Of cupful OF
flour and stir until foamy. Heat pint
of clans in their own juice, drain and
chop. Measure the clans and take
equal parts of fresh grated corn. Add
three-quarters of cup of the clam
juice, after straining, to the butter and
-four add two beaten eggs and three
tablespoonful of cream, and stir into
the clam juice, but do not boil. But
ter some clam shells, put in the mix
ture and cover with buttered crumbs.
Serve on a napkin on hot platter.
Garnish with parsley.
