German Pancakes and Rice waffles

Gould you possibly send me a good
German pancake recipe. the kind one gets
at restaurants, and a good waffle recipe
shall be ever 50 much obliged to you If
you can and will. r. w. c."
| am not sure about German pancakes.
Do you mean these? If am not right
somebody will contribute the simon pure
recipe.
German potato Pancake-Grate six large
potatoes when you have washed and
pared them. Beat three eggs lightly and
stir into the grated potato two tablespoons
of flour sifted three times with a salt
spoon of soda. Mix thoroughly and cook
in a well btntered frying pan.
Rice Waffies-One cup of cooled boiled
rice, one pint of sweet milk, two eggs.
teaspoon of baking powder, one teaspoon
of salt, a tablespoon of melted butter
enough flour (sifted) to make a rather
thin batter. Sift the salt, baking pow
der and a scant cup of flour together
three times, add the milk and eggs, beat
iu butter and rice. and whip all with
quick, upward strokes for three minutes.
Heat the irons for an hour before using
them at the side of the stove, having pre-
viously rubbed them well with dry salt.
When the waffles are ready to be baked
grease the iron well with lard wrapped
in a bit of thin muslin. See that every
hole and depression of the iron is treated
with the grease.

OPEN SEASON FOR
DOVES AUGUST |
Wallace Instructs Wardens
to See That Hunters
Have Licenses

Montgomery, July 20.-(SpeciaL)-
John H. Wallace. Jr., state game and
fish commissioner. has addressed spe-
cial Instructions to all the game and
fish wardens of the state, directing
their attention to the fact that the
open season on doves will begin Au-
gust l. and admonishing the wardens
and their deputies to be on guard for
the purpose Of apprehending all per-
sons who may shoot doves out of sea-
son, hunt without licenses or violate
any other of sthe provisions of the
game and fish laws. The commissioner
especially inveighs against the barba-
rous practice of batting doves. His
special instructions to the various
county wardens of the state are as
follows:
1.-The season on doves will open Aug
ust /. You are admonished to be on
guard in order to apprehend all persons
iwho may seek to shoot these birds
just prior to the expiration of the
closed season. See to it that all persons
who hunt doves after August l are
duly equipped with hunters licenses
and otherwise conform to the provis-
ions of our game conservation stat
utes. Dove shooting is esteemed as a
great sport in the SOUTH although in
many other states of the union doves
are considered as a game bird.
See to it. therefore, that the bag limit
of 25 doves per day is not violated
by any hunter. Post your deputies in
every part of your county, and eau
tion them to be on the lookout for
! those who may attempt to spread
grain or other food for the purpose of
attracting or batting doves. Dove bait
, ing Is relic of barbarism. The prac-
Z tice has been largely stopped in the
. past, and this season heroic efforts will
| be taken by the department. of game
and fish in order to stamp it entirely
out.
when convinced that the law has
been violated in any particular, swear
out warrant Immediately against the
defendant and spare no pains In bring
Ing the guilty party to Justice Be on
the lookout for persons who may at
tempt to violate the fish law by using
seines and other Illicit devices for the
purpose of taking fish Instruct your
deputies to exercise that same degree
of diligence that this department will
expect of you in compelling a strict
observance of the laws for the pro-
lection of wild life and for the preser-
walton of fish"

Chance for Needy Young Girl

do you know of some needy young girl
who would come in about o'clock, help
get dinner, serve it, and wash the dishes?
This would be an excellent opportunity
for a girl to learn to cook. and as there
are only three of us the work is not heavy.
If you could direct any such person to me
/ should appreciate it very much as such
help cannot be secured through a regu-
lar ad, and l do not know just how to
go about it. Hence this request. / trust
the inquiry is not out of your province,
but If it is could you suggest where L
might find such a girl? In what neigh
borhood or through what source would
apply? A READER"
have so many inquiries in character
like the above that | insert this as a
specimen l sincerely hope that you may
secure the services of a tidy young girl
who wishes tc fit herself for the place of
cook or general housemaid by novitiate
in the kitchen of well to do house
mother. Candidly / assert my conviction
that mistresses and maids would be bet
ter suited with one another all over the
land If apprenticeship were the rule and
not the exception. The needy girl" who
sneers at the idea of cooking without pay
until she has learned the art should think
twice and long before throwing the pro-
posal into the fire.
