PUPILS TRANSPORTATION
PAID FOR BY THE PUBLIC
Forty-Three States Authorize Carry-
ing of Children to Schools,
Says q. S. Bulletin.

A. least fortythree states authorize
the transportation Of pupils 10 public
schools at the expense of school districts
according to bulletin by A. c. Mona han
of the United States bureau of educa-
tion. In certain states ansportation
at public expense is perInissive only. In
others obligatory. Ohio. for example,
requires transportation for children
two miles or more from the school,
while other states require transporta-
tion when the distance is one and one
half miles or more.
In several of the states. according to
the bulletin. the school authorities may
pay parents or guardians fixed
amount per day for transportation,
while Maine. Vermont Minnesota,
ment for room and board for pupils
in homes convenient to the schools
where the cost of so doing does not
exceed the cost of transportation.
Wagon Is Favored.
As to the means of transportation
the bulletin says: Sentiment seems to
favor the school wagon where properly
managed: yet while the wagon is the
usual form of conveyance furnished,
many children are transported by
steam railroads, electric cars, automo-
biles and even by gasoline launches"
Competent drivers are essential In
any plan for transportation, states the
bulletin. The character of the driver is
so important that state legislation in
some instances, for example Wiscon-
sin, requires that each driver con
tracted with must be of excellent
moral character. trustwo orthy and re-
sponsible. and must furnish n safe
team with suitable conveyance
The cost per pupil for transportation,
as given by the bulletin, ranges from
10 to 1s cents per day. The average ex-
pense for the school year is about $o3
per pupil.

THING THAT MIGHT HAPPEN

well, of all things that live and
breathe, If it isn't my old college
chum, Bill Edworthy!"
With these few well-chosen words. a
tall, well-built young fellow slapped
another W. B. Y. F. in the small Of
his back with such a r~esounding
whack as to almost put his lights out.
Even a blind baggage a could see
that the young men were old college
chums.
Ding my Stats" said Bill Edworthy,
the young man who had been struck;
IF it isn't Harry Allison, the stroke
a of the class of umpty-steen. Well,
If you aren't a good sight for tangled
lamps"
Why" continued Henry, 1T must
be 'steen years since l met you at the
last alumni dinner. How's things?"
Fine. Say, do you remember the
night when we got lit up and came
down with the chickenpox?"
Sure do. Sort Of a stewed chicken
pox. Well, I've get about five min
utes to spare. Let's drop into this
cafe and have just one drink"
So the two college chums who had
not met in so many eyars sidled into
Dinkeldorfer's cafe and Hank give his
order and Bill said: Make it ditto"
The bartender did that little thing for
them. They had one drink and Bill
said good-by to Hank and Hank said
good-by to Bill.
Just one little drink, and each went
his way.

this little anecdote was volunteered
by II. H. Asker, a North Dakota poll

One Afternoon Green was standing
on the corner looking at the jitneys
when he was suddenly confronted by
an acquaintance of other years. Soon
they were comparing notes and recall
ing happy hours.
80 you were married ten years
ago." said the acquaintance in re-
Spouse to a statement made by Brown.
Took place in the church, l suppose,
with bridesmaids, flowers, cake and
the brass band?"

Elective expression, 1T was an elope-
ment."
"An elopement, eh?" returned the
acquaintance. Did the girls father

YES" answered Brown, with some
thing akin to a sigh, land he has been
with us ever since"

USE OF THE CASSEROLE
NOT A SPOONFUL or ANYTHING
EDIBLE NEED BE WASTED.
Tasty and Nourlshlna Dishes Can Be
Prepared From Scraps Of Meat
and Venetahles-Hlnts for
the Cook.


When the making over old cold
meats into warn dishes Is IN question
consider the casserole. BY It's use
even the smallest scraps OF meat, vege-
tables. sauces and gravies can be
used up. Not a spoonful Of anything
edible need go to waste.
When the Sunday joint Of roast beef
has been served hot and then cold,
make a delicious lunch or supper Of
the remains II there is insufficient for
a dinner. In the bottom Of the cas-
serole put sliced potatoes, a carrot
and a couple OF onions, small, chopped,
and, II on hand, a few mushrooms.
Over this pour the gravy from the
meat, or, II this has been thrown away.
add water seasoned with pepper and
salt. Put on the cover and bake in
a slow oven for an hour. Half an
hour before serving lay the cold meat
on top Of the vegetables, replace the
cover, and continue the baking.
Cold roast Of lamb will prove a very
tasty dish cooked in a casserole with
green peas. The peas are boiled and
placed in layers in the casserole alter
nately with slices OF the lamb. The
liquor in which the peas we're boiled
is thickened and poured over, the cas-
serole being set in the oven until the
meat has heated through. Served with
mashed potatoes, an appetizing meal
is the result. When cold peas or other
vegetables are on hand a white sauce
a be poured over, or any gravy
that may be available. The liquor
from the peas is not absolutely neces-
sary, though 1t adds to the nutriment
Of the dish.
A very delicate dish for a dainty
lunch or a meal for an invalid is a
combination of chicken and mush-
rooms prepared in a casserole. The
mushrooms are fried in butter very
lightly, then a tablespoonful of flour
mixed with a scant cupful of milk is
poured in and cooked until creamy.
The mushrooms ana cold chicken are
packed into the casserole in alternate
layers and the creamy sauce poured
over until the contents are heated
through evenly.
A novel way Of using up cold rice
is to owe the bottom of the casserole
with it in quite a thick layer, and re-
cook it with raw eggs. Make as many
depressions in the rice as there are
eggs to be cooked and drop one egg
(broken) into each space. Season with
salt and pepper and pop bits Of butter
over rice and eggs.
A still more unusual dish is made
from cold veal. About one cupful Of
the meat diced is mixed with one
dozen almonds chopped and blanched,
salt and pepper to taste and a dash
Of paprika. This mixture is held to-
gether with a beaten g and formed
into small balls. These are laid in
a casserole and covered with stewed
tomatoes. The cover is put on and
the dish put into the oven for half
an hour or so.
