enough of one kind, you may use the

berries, peach, pineapple and plum.

Boy Scouts of Washington are praised
for the services which they rendered
during the G. A. r. encampment just
closed in a statement covering their
activities during the week which has
been issued by local headquarters, as
follows:
1.-The past week was an extremely
busy one for every scout in Washing
ton, as every troop in the District had
some assignment of duty in connection
with the G. A. r. encampment. To
enumerate what the various troops did
during the week would fill several col
umns, and SO the officials at the local
headquarters only are going to state
that the work done by the boys was
most satisfactory all along the line. The
scouts acted as special messengers at
Camp Emery, headquarters for the G..
A r.; attended to the information room
there, acted as orderlies in the hos
pital corps room, guided the veterans
to their various hotels or lodgings. and,
in short, made themselves most in
valuable aids.
ITO show that their services were ap-
preciated by the Grand Army. the COM
mander-in chief requested that Boy
act as an official guide and see that the
veterans were placed in their proper
places in the line of march. On the
day of the parade every troop reported
with full numbers, and assisted the po-
lice department in policing the line of
march. They also acted as messengers
for first aid work in summoning ambu-
lances. They assisted the veterans in
the line of march by supplying them
with water from their canteens. One

canteens full of water. Possibly some
of the most efficient work done by the
scouts was the holding back of the vast
crowds at the intersecting streets and
opening passageways for the ambu-
lances.<

in, but it Is safe to say that they will
run up into the hundreds.
Several visiting troops were along
the line assisting the local scouts.
Local headquarters is very we'll
detail was covered by the scouts. On
one occasion, when the steel cable broke
at the intersection of 18th street and
New York avenue the scouts did ex-
tremely good work in holding the
crowds in check until repairs were
made. The services of the Boy Scouts
have been asked for during the last
fortnight by a great number of organi-
cations, but 1t was impossible to have
the boys out of school more than the
week of the encampment"
All scouts are requested to report at
7th and K streets tomorrow night. at Z
o'clock. to take part in the 7th street

route of the parade.

render assistance to the Midcity Citi-

Sweet Pepper Salads.

Sweet peppers have recently become
one of the most popular of vegetables,
as housewives have learned they make
very delectable dishes. In salads they
are invaluable. and many attractive
side dishes that add so much to ones
table have the pepper as their basis.
In southern California it is the vogue
to have a Spanish dinner served after
the theater. and it is then that one
realizes how dear to the heart of a
Spanish cook is the pepper. for it is
used in nearly every dish they concoct.
The young housewife needs to know
how to tell a sweet pepper from a hot
one. There are two tests. first. by the
smell. second, by cutting piece off
and touching it with the tongue. One
taste will be sufficient, as the hot pep
per is very strong and pungent. and
beware. for it does not lose it's strength
in cooking.
Sweet peppers are both red and green
in color. and sometimes mixed: in Sc

nor too thin. The rounder they are the

Sweet peppers are very popular for
garnishing of salads and fiavoring
creamed chicken and chicken a Ia king;
they may be combined successfully
with soft cream cheese and fashioned
into balls.
The next time you fry tomatoes slice
4 few strips off sweet pepper and put
in the pan and you will be surprised at
the effect produced.
A seasonable dish is green corn, cut
from the cob. boiled in milk, and one
quarter OF green pepper and one
quarter of red one, cut in dice, cooked
with the corn and seasoned to taste.
Sweet peppers combine very well with
minced ham. This may be made of the
remainder of boiled or baked ham. Put

meat, use one-half cup Of peppers. In a

found that about seventeen boys could

this was all We were ordered to do,

given the documents to deliver.
Needless to say, the papers are never
delivered, except to the King of Eng
land, together with missive from
Louise, which, intended for Frances
monarch, plainly reveals her duplic-
ity. How Nell further outwits the
vengeful woman and wins back her
royal lovers heart and trust is dra-
matically developed in this dashing
romance of the swash--buckling per-
iod of hearts and swards.
Mary Pickford lends new and WV
i'd beauty to Mistress Nell", and
throughout the story wears several
changes of costume, first as the &C
tress, then as Mistress Nell, the
sweetheart of the King, and finally
as the cavalier, in which disguise she
circumvents the plots of the schem-
ers against the king. 1t is difficult
to say in which dress Little Mary
is more captivating, but throughout
the entire characterization she is com
pletely irresistible.
