 come i'll the last few years? Hardly a stu

 term to carry out his particular idea
 Large bodies are embracing such study ir their work. Under the head of socia' service comes almost every topic relating to social welfare in the world, and its importance is recognized in all works ot life.
 Probably one of the most interesting manifestations of the use of the word is Illustrated in the branch of work under.

 The free synagogue, with Stephen Wise at it's head is a recognized force, and what is done under it's guidance is 8
 matter of deep concern to social workers Such topics as these come under tho social service committee, handled by the best authorities in New York city: ''Th, City and the Child or What the City Does For Its Children and What It Ought To Do.' Under this topic, problems of health education and dependence are especially to be considered. On October 20 the so. cial service department of the free. syna. gogue had reunion. This annual event has become notable in the life of the department. At this meeting an address was made by Prof. John Dewey ol Columbia university who spoke on .Edu. cation and Social Service" The socia service department of this congregation devotes itself to medical, social service and social care of the sick, including visiting and attending patients in Belle vue and Lebanon hospitals: free clinics are maintained for mental hygiene, ant extensive work is done for sufferers iron tuberculosis.

PROCESS OF STEWING
REGULATION OF HEAT is THE
MAIN CONSIDERATION.
On That Account 1t Is Best to Use
Gas, When PossibIe-GIazed Earth
enWare Jar Should Be Re-
ceptacIe Employed.

Stewing is a method of food prepara-
ton that approaches the soup-making
process. 1t is to some extent pro-
ceeding that occupies middle posi-
ton between boiling and baking; the
latter is often called roasting. In
stewing, the cooks endeavor should
be to extract from the meat its nutri'
tive juices, and then to employ those
juices, suitably treated, to finish cook
Ing the remainder of the meat. For
successful stewing, the most impor-
tant point is the power of regulating
the heat at which the operation is
conducted. In order to stew success
fully the heat must be absolutely un-
der the cooks control. The up-to-date
cook, therefore, prefers gas for stew
ing purposes on account of the perfect
control that can be exercised over the
temperature.
For successful stewing, meat should
be divided into small portions for the
easy extraction of the juices. Where
bones exist, these should be broken
into small pieces, and form an under
layer in the stewing vessel. The meat
and bones ought always to be placed
in cold water and the water should
cover everything in the pan or jar.
The lid or cover should be carefully
secured, and the temperature must be
gradually raised to a steady heat,
which must, of course, be below boil
ing. The extraction of the meat juices
then proceeds, and when vegetables
are to be added to the stew they are
placed in the vessel at later stage.
Boiling and stewing are by no means
the same process. The proper tenn
perature for stewing is about 180 de-
grees Fair. AS almost everybody
knows, the boiling point is 212 Fair.
A glazed earthenware jar with a
tight-ftting cover is most useful for
stewing meat, or for making soups. If
1t has no cover, one should be con-
structed by fitting a plate or saucer on
top of the jar and brown paper should
then be tied over it. A jar with a
cover saves this trouble, and is, there
fore, worth the extra expense. Earth
enware or stone jars are very easily
kept clean, and food does not spoil
when left in them, as it may do if
left in metal pan. They can be
placed on the top of the stove or in the
oven when it is necessary to reheat
the food contained in them, or if
placed in pan of boiling water the
contents Of the jar will cook slowly
without attention from the cook. A
meat stew can be served in the jar in
which it has been cooked, if it is
neither too large nor too high. It must
of course, be wiped dry and napkin
may be neatly folded around it. By
this process the great advantage of a
very hot dinner may be obtained in
the coldest weather, even when the
whole family does not reach the home
at exactly the same hour, as stone
or earthenware jar, having been thor
oughly heated, will retain the heat for
some ime.-American Cookery.
