Mrs. Frank NJ. Roesslng, president of
the Pennsylvania Woman Suffrage as
ISOLATION, is a new type of suffrage
leader. As general in chief Of the
suffrage forces OF the Keystone State
she is conducting a campaign for the
ballot, which, because Of the dignity
and common sense that characterize
it, has gained the respect and admira-
ton Of the entire country.
Sensational stunts that have nothing
but their sensationalism to commend
them have. no place in the Pennsyl-
vania suffrage campaign. Although
still in the early thirties, Mrs. Roessing
has achieved distinction as both a civic
worker and philanthropist, as well as
leader Of the state suffrage forces.
Moreover, her civic and sociological
work has always been along consuuc-
tive lines, with the betterment Of evil
conditions as the goal to be achieved
Through the wOmen's clubs Of her
home city, Pittsburgh, she worked for
years to secure better living conditions
for women and children As secretary
Of the Twentieth Century club and as
treasurer Of the Playground association
she made an enviabIe reputation both
as an executive and financier.
Mrs Roessing's interest In suffrage
came as a development Of her active
experiences as civic worker, for she
learned early the difficulties Of at
tempting to better conditions for wom-
en- and children through indirect in
1uence." She found, she says, that
without the ballot even the most
earnest workers were handicapped
Therefore she determined to secure the
power which it represented for the wo-
men who need IT most, in her opinion
the women of the factory and mill
Her success In this task is shown by
the growth Of interest in the suffrage
question in Pennsylvania during the
past few years. This year through
her generalship the question goes d.
rectly to the voters for the first time.
Powerful interests are fighting the
Pennsylvania suffragists, but Mrs
Roessing does not fear the outcome.
I'VE will win" she said recently,
because the majority Of men in the
state believe In fair play. And that is
what the question of suffrage finally
resolves itself into-just fair play"

The making Of iaky pastry Is an
art not difficult to acquire. Success
lies In the mixing and handling Of
the dough rather than In the propor.
lions OF materials used. Recipes for
pastry may differ and produce equally
good results. Proper manipulation Of
the dough is the knack that must be
acquired
A rule to be remembered In pastry
making is that only light hands make
good pastry. Fine white -four makes
the lightest pastry, but this is not
necessary except for pun paste. Ordl-
nary household -four can be used.
All hours, with their raising, should
be thoroughly sffted and aerated be-
fore mixing, butter and lard may be
used In equal proportions and pure
vegetable buffers or fats are excellent.
Heavily sailed cooking butter should
be avoided, as it is likely to have a
strong taste. Time and trouble will
be saved in the mixing II the fat, when
at all hard, is first beaten to a cream.
All pastry should be mixed with
very cold water. The board and pin
should be Toured lightly and the dough
rolled out with short. sharp rolls; lift
the. pin constantly and never go over
the edges. Pastry should be handled
as little rs possible, and the first that
Is rolled Is the best Bake in a hot
oven, so that it may rise quickly; open
the oven door only when necessary,
and be careful not to bang it when
closing.
Here is an English recipe for pas
try, with directions for mixing 1t:
Half a pound Of -four, four ounces
Of butter or other fats, one teaspoon
full Of baking powder. Sift the -four
and baking powder well together and
add salt to taste. Cream the butter or
fat on a plate and divide 1t into four
parts. Rub one-quarter lightly into
the -four. When fine pour a little wa
ter into the center, use a knife for
mixing and make an elastic dough
Flour the board and pin and roll the
paste into long strip. Put on anoth-
er portion of the fat In little dabs.
sprinkle with -four, cut into three strips
and lay one on top Of the other, pound
with the pin and roll out again Re
peat this performance until the fourth
portion of butter is used.
The pastry then is ready for use.
Roll # out again, cut 1t in the desired
pastry rises In layers. air being folded
In at each turn
This method will produce a delicious,
light, iaky pastry IL the directions be
followed carefully.
