 School authorities all over the coun- try are now making up their final lists of teachers for fall term. With all the educational scouts roaming around and picking up the more gift ed women for service in large cities and wealthy towns. It is a worrisome job.
 School superintendents anticipating search light criticism, canvass= their many applicants with anxious care. and find the majority unsatisfactory. There are plenty who have had fair education, but few who have the mag netic gift Of inspiration and easy dis cip1ine
 Highly. educated girls take poorly paid positions for d year or two, but quickly yield to the seductions of towns offering larger salaries They do not always profit much either in money or in satisfactions of living.

PTGEON PTE

Is good hot or cold. It is a good dish to make for some informal en- tertainment when substantial cold vi ands are in order. Stew a pair of pigeons slowly and pound of round enough water to cover them. When the steak is tender, which will re- quire an hour or perhaps longer, re- move from the fire and cool. Lay the steak in the bottom of a deep dish. Divide the birds in halves and season highly with pepper and salt. Then place them the steak, cut two hard boiled eggs in four 1egthwise and place in the dish between the pieces of pigeon. Pour in the gravy in which the steak and pigeons were simmered, cover with a rich pie crust or a biscuit dough, if you prefer it. and bake three quarters of an hour If you intend serving the pie cold, ii would be well to add a tablespoonful of granulated ge1atine to the broth
 before pouring it into the pie. This will make a very handsome. delicious | cold dish.

HOLYOKE AND AMHERST
 FOLKS STILL WALKING

Holyoke Mass. .Aalg. 12-People in this city and Amherst were still walk ing today. The next step awaited the efforts to settle the differences which have kept the trolley lines idle all the week was a decision by the trolleymen's union on the latest pro- position made by Charles G. Wood, of the state board of .conciIiation and arbitration. MT. Wood last night sug- gested that he be invited to explain at a union meeting the nature of his plan for the ending of the strike which he thought had been nnisunder- stood by the strikers when they vot- ed against it earlier in the week. It was expected that John H. Reardon, executive agent of the union who is in charge of the strike would an- nounce the unions attitude on this proposition today. The strikers seek higher wages and a readjustment of working hours.

GREENGAGE JELLY

Put half a pound of sugar, with cup of cold water, into a granite iron stewpan and stir until the sugar has melted. Then without stirring. let this syrup boil for a few moments and add two pounds of greengages. Stew gently until they are quite soft Pass the fruit through a sieve, then measure the pulp and put it back into the stewpan, stirrings it until it is hot. More sugar may be required if the grengages are not thoroughly ripe. Allow three-quarters of an ounce of gelatine for each pint of the fruit af- ter it has been run through a. sieve. Soak for a few moments in the cold water. Pour over it thel hot pulp. Stir until the geIatine is thoroughly dissolved and turn into a china mold which has been rinsed with cold wa ter. Let it stand over night if possi- ble, or at least from early morning until the evening meal. Serve it with whipped cream or cold boiled custard favored with lemon. This must not
 be cooked in tin nor packed into a 1 tin mold.

Dear Miss Iibbey:-
 come to you for information, please I am a young man of g, tall and weIl-proportioned; quite popular. IT have a good government position Will have to go to the city soon, and among strangers. I desire to know how to get acquainted with prominent young folks of the city. I have been in large cities, find it difficult to get acquainted If decide to ningle with girls of good common sense, would it be proper to ask if might call sometime? How often should a youth call to see a girl? And when is proper time to call? Do you advise young folks to visit the theatres? I have been raised in the country Do you think I can stand iI-' with prom inent city folks?
 Go during leisure with nice young men, who belong to good clubs, to church entertainments, social fairs, school picnice, etc. Show your creden- tials. It's an honor to have been reared in the country. Previous to ar | ranging, ask evenings she may permit you to call. Later, may visit twice a week. Can attend good theatres, once every month or two, as your purse all l lows, first have her parents pernis- sion. Return without delay at end of performance not chatting at her home late in the evening.

Dear Miss Libbey:-
 I like your advice. please. Am a girl of Is past, attend High school; in .terested in education. Had no young company except once. He took me hom from a neighbor's place; is a. nice young man. At present he at tends college, a distance away. He wrote a few times, he is in deep love with me, as [ am with him. and no other. He was first I noticed. I had no company after his departure. Girl friends think am too young. My mind ought to be on studies instead of boys. Am too young for company?
 E.
 Your studies should be your greatest interest for the next couple of years. Going with your girl friends will be your enjoyment in leisure hours. Boys should not take your mind from your school studies you will lose nothing by waiting for company till education is finished. That way you will succeed with both.

ing just exactly what she wants. The accompanying model however, is sure to please. It is developed in white silk crepe de Chine trimmed with revers and collar of ciei blue satin and a vest of lace. The back of the waist extends over the shoulders at the. front, forming yoke effect In medium size the de Chine, with E yard satin for collar and IS yards embroidery edging for the vest The lower edge may be fin fshed with a straight band or with a peplurn.
 Only two parts of the pattern are laid on a. lengthwise fold of the material in cuttipg-tae collar and the back-these being placed in the order named. To the left end of the crepe, opposite the collar and back the revers and vest are laid. if made of the same material. Where satin is used, however, care should be taken to place the sections of the pattern on the trimming fabrics in the same manner as on the waist material. If the vest is desired made of lace edging turn under the edge on small ..o'' perforations and place on ma- terial with the folded edge along the bordered edge Of lace or trimming The front, stay and sleeve are laid on a Iengthwise thread of the crepe, and small t'o' perforations indicate the shape of the neck outline

 The old idea of a teacher as a thin soulful air but indifferent to dress is out of date. It is a trim, bright faced iIot of people now. They seem to have learned that clothes make the woman" and array themselves for their ordeal before the school au- thorities with a simple attractiveness that represents some marvel Of strat- Iegy on low salary.

FRYING TOMATOES PROPERLY

Tomatoes contain about 95 per cent of water, a spicy. delicious wa ter, which of itself is far more whole some and more gently piquant than the spiced tomato bouillon. This wa ter can be preserved if tomatoes are sliced in medium slices over a very gentle fire. If the fire is too hot at the start it dries the juice in and scorches the slices. If too hot when the juice comes out to join the butter this is cooked on the pan Turn af- ter three minutes and cook on other side. These are really tomatoes stew ed in their own juices.
