Activity Among the Pupils
of City Schools Whetted
by Ambition to Win the
Prizes.

The EVENING LEDGER cooking contest
has caused much activity in the various
cooking schools during the last three
days. The children have been discussing
and comparing opinions. The teachers
have been flooded with questions.
The indication now Is that the entries
IN the contest will run above 5000, as
many school children in all of the schools
have signified their intention OF enter
ing more than one of the four divisions
OF the contest
one little girl on being asked what she
was going to bake. replied:
"oh, I'm going to enter all four divi-
sions, because that will give me four
chances to win n gas range
This is logical reasoning. This little girl
has the right idea. Not only Is she insur-
ing for herself an opportunity to win one
OF the four gas ranges. she is Keeping
open an opportunity of winning one OF
the second, third or fourth prizes in each
of the four classes
children should keep in mind that
there is no charge for entering the con-
test The two main requirements are that
they must be members of cooking school
classes and that they cook their exhibits
in the oven OF a gas range. The expense
entailed Is merely the cost of buying the
raw material which Is used in preparing
the exhibits and this will be but a minor
consideration.
A great many inquiries have been made
by school children relative to the adjust
ment of their gas ranges. The United
Gas Improvement Company has extended
its free service to cover the period of
the contest as follows:
Any gas range which needs adjust
ments In order to give the hest cook
ing results will he adjusted free of
charge by the United Gas Improvement
Company. Children who nrc preparing
10 enter the contest should notify the
gas company Immediately to inspect
their gas ranges.
Mrs. Carroll was asked today to make
a few suggestions to the school girls
relative to the course they might follow
i'll baking their exhibits. "What you want
In this competition is bread, sponge cake,
cookies and biscuits, baked according to
the recipes which the children have been
using in their regular cooking school
courses and not on recipes of Others"

"why not make the EVENING LEDGER

This is the question asked by leading
PhlIsdelphIa housewife when interviewed
BY a reporter.
That Is just the thing the EVENING
LEpoER is attempting to do--to spread
the gospel" OF more modern cooking,
the science which means better and more
wholesome foods and OF better home con-
ditions for all classes of people, from the
household which has one or more serv-
ants down through the comfortable
homes, where housewives do their own
work. to the poorest classes.
Good cooking and good housekeeping
cannot be placed in the class OF 1.-The

pies, cakes, cookies, bread and biscuits
our mothers made because they were
good but conditions have changed. We
can no longer apply the rules Of our
mothers.
The lectures which Mrs. Anna A. Car

Cooking School have all been built on a
thorough understanding of what may be

Of the latest methods of preparing foods
The lectures will appeal alike TO the
young housewives and TO housewives who
have been at the head of families for
many years Mrs. Carroll recognizes that
many young women have become de.
cidedly unhappy because their cooking
and general housework become irksome
as they have been taught or as they have
learned to do It. She has worked these
details out in such a way that house,
keeping may become almost a pastime.
Mrs Carroll said today that in her ex-
periences she has met many older house
wives who had become entirely dissat-
ished with their household duties be-
cause they had become laborious routine.
She will be able to give many valuable
hints on the housekeeping problem for
the benefit of every person, whether
young or old.
