SUE FOR GERMAN TEACHING
Societies Are Said to Be Behind
Move to Test Instruction
Law.
CASE WILL NOT BE ADVANCED
(From a staff Correspondent

(From q Staff Correspondent
LINCOLN. Sept. 1s.-(Special) -Teach-
ing of German In the public schools OF
Nebraska City faces the people Of the
Otoe county capital The courts will be
called upon to settle the matter and 1t
is probable that the result may affect
the teaching OF foreign languages in all
the public schools of the state.
Attorneys representing William Gebart
Of that city were in the city today to
file papers for a writ of mandamus to
compel the school board of Nebraska
City to hire a German teacher. The
supreme court judges, with whom a con-
ference was held, declared that they
would not advance the case. and so this
means It will be two years before the
case will be decided. II is understood
that the attorneys will go back to Otoe
county and begin suit in the district
court in the regular way.
It appears that about a year ago the
mattre of hiring q teacher OF German in
the schools of Nebraska City came up
and the board. in the interests OF econ
omy decided the district could not afford
It. The vote was unanimous with the
exception of one man. who did not vote.
The matter again came up this year and
the Same action was taken.
While the attorney for the plaintiff
would not say that the German societies
arc behind the move. he admitted that
they are furnishing the money to prose
cute the case and that in all probability
II might extend to a general all-state
proposition. the German societies all over
Nebraska taking a hand In the matter.

RECIPES WITHOUT EGGS.

Dear Editor and Social Corner Friends: I do enjoy reading the helpful hints and letters in the Social Corner. will send a few tried and tested recipes without eggs (made with but termilk) that are all good:
 Doughnuts-One cup sugar, one third cup cream, one cup buttermilk, one and one-half teaspoons soda, one and one-quarter teaspoons cream tar tar, a little nutmeg, salt, flour to roll, and fry in deep hot fat.
 Nut Drop Cookies-One cup brown sugar, one-halt cup shortening, one cup butter1nilk, one teaspoon soda, one tea spoon cinnamon, one-half cup nut meats, flour to make a stiff batter and drop from spoon. Bake in dripping pan.
 Johnny Cake-One cup each flour and Indian meal, one large cup butter milk into which a teaspoon of soda has been; dissolved, one-half cup brown sugar or molasses, salt. Bake in square tin.

Flx-uPs FOR HOT LuNcHEoNs.

Dear Editor Social Corner: Only those who must prepare hot luncheons understand how arduous it becomes to "f1x up" something sustaining, simple and saving.
 Of late there seems to be a 'revivaT' in the use of coarse Hours and bran for breads, cakes and mullins. While some of us may have to learn to like these coarser foods, those who know claim they supply the required anil nal spring tonic, so it does seem worth while to make an effort to create in the youngsters. as well as the parents, a desire for natural foods, which the system requires, instead of reSorting to medicines for tonics.
 Something healthful and palatable and particularly pleasing to the lit- tie folks will be found in the following "fx-ups" for hot luncheons. Mothers, especially, are usually looking out for dishes that will cook, not while you wait, but while mother does a num- Der of little things:
 Mondays-Soup, Warm Gingerbread or Baked Beans and Cabbage Relish.
 The soup is made by adding to the rich gravy left from a Sunday pot roast enough water to make the de- sired quantity of soup; one onion, cut fine, tablespoon of rice and one-half can tomatoes. When this is nearly done, add one cup sliced potatoes and few broken sticks of macaroni or spaghetti white pepper as seasoning with a little celery salt.
 Cabbage Relish Is made by running through the meat chopper a small head of cabbage and one onion. Put into an earthen covered dish after add ing salt, sugar and vinegar to suit taste. It is best when 24 hours old Tuesdays-Macaroni and Tomatoes with Cheese Sandwiches. or Cheese Plain and Beef Hash.
 A dish of macaroni or spaghetti and tomatoes is prepared by putting de- sired amount of macaroni into salted
 boiling water; simmer till done; drain and pour into one quart we'll cooked tomatoes, season with butter, salt and white pepper. Placed in a steamer this is easily kept warm or relocated Wednesdays-Rran Cakes with Syrup, or Rice Cakes with Syrup. For che Bran Cakes mix four table spoons bran. one tablespoon sugar, one quart flour, one heaping teaspoon salt together; stir in gradually one ana
 one-half cups sour milk and one teal J spoon soda dissolved in hot uatsas,

around waist, placing fullness in back front and sides, just as desired. Then take a lead pencil, mark the waist all around, just below the tape Cut off even with marked line, after taking off waist. Put on belt, remembering to have measured distance from middle of back to under arm seam. so as to know exactly where to let fullness be. This is an excellent idea and of great benefit to home dressmakers.
 ButtonhoIes-To work them in dresses of Sicilienne or similar mate rials, melt some paraffin and place a drop on the wrong side of the goods just where the buttonhole is to be worked. Smooth it down with the finger and work the buttonhole as usual. When completed, place a piece of brown paper on the wrong side buttonhole will be perfectly smooth and all traces of paraffin gone.
 When ironing between buttons on a shirtwaist, place the buttons down on a folded towel and iron on the wrong side. The result will be very pleas ing to both ironer and wearer.
 The possibilities of a five cent scrub ping brush are unlimited. Having a dress of which only the bottom of with care it might be taken on table with plenty of space and good soap in the water, the hem scrubbed gent ly, then rinsed, wetting only the DOT tion needed, having irons ready to press at once Try 1t and be con vinced. Any part of wearing apparel can be cleansed in the same way.
 If you are home dressmaker, keep a quantity of sharp black pins on hand to use in pinning patterns etc. Their large heads render them very easily picked up while the points. be- ing so very sharp, are easily pricked through the material and do not draw the goods as common pins do.
 Plush goods and all articles dyed with aniline colors which have faded from exposure to the light, will look as bright as new after sponging with chloroform.
 Best wishes to all.
