)OD idea, that Of opening a
training school for servants!"
remarked a young matron,
who had fled her domestic
woes al home to relate them
as she sat before a neighbours
cheerily burning fire. But

with trained minds increases; and only in The
same proportion does the number increase Of
housekeepers who make intelligent demands
on their employees, who will not encourage poor
service by tolerating it, who realize their re
sponsiblity TO other households, and under
stand that every irresponsible mistress makes
life more difficult for every other mistress and
maid"
The possibility of attracting "the trained
mind" to the actual homework itself appar
emily never occurred to her.
But that was ten years ago. Although the
mere title Training School for Servants
does suggest bond of servitude il-behttng
the traditions of a democratic country, in An
drews Institute we have an institute that edG-
Gates up to the new enlightened and enlarged
view of homework, not do,on to 1.-THE gospel
of the Importance of woman's work in the
home and the crying need for efficiency and
trained skill therein.
Everywhere well-born young women are IN.
dertaking with enthusiasm work that their
grandmothers would have disdained. The doc.
trine that any work, if well done, is dignifst
and ennobling is reflected by the college women
who are opening model laundries, bakeries tea
rooms and dressmaking shops and host Of
other undertakings formerly considered TO
carry in themselves the stigma Of a loss Of
caste
| recall what a woman who had opened q
model laundry in a fashionable Westcheste'
community once told me.
A wealthy friend and customer, hostess Of q
large country house near by, asked her to din
ner. What! introduce your washerwoman at
dinner?" she laughed.
Certainly" was the crisp reply. "You are
all the more interesting because Of that"
1t was not mere courtesy that prompted her
retort. 1t was symbolic Of the attitude OF 10
ciety everywhere toward the woman who u
doing things"

Some Useful Plum Pudding knowledge

vogue, as well as the retainers of the family,
there can be little doubt that the pudding was
stirred until it was lightness itself.
Cooking the pudding is no less important
than the mixing, and 10 have 1t genuinely
English it must be round and sho : the creases
where it was boiled-or, rather steamed-ln
cloth. Take a strong piece of white drilling,
dip il IN boiling water and rub it on one side
thickly with flour. This forms crust on the
cloth which the water or steam cannot soak
through. On the Toured side lay an enamelled
bowl, well buttered. Turn the pudding into
this, cover with buttered paper and gather
the cloth together loosely, allowing one-quar-
ter of space for the pudding TO swell. Set
the pudding on a trivet in kettle Of boiling
water, and have the water only come up half
the way on the side Of the bowl.
Let il boil for six hours keeping the water
replenished with actively boiling water. If it
stops boiling for one moment the pudding will
be sticky when unmoulded. Store the pudding
when cooked in cool, dry place, and reheat
by steaming for one hour just before serving.
The quantity given makes very large pud-
ding, and half the quantity will make one
sufficiently large for a small family. A very
attractive way 10 serve the pudding is TO set
it on a base Of lump sugar, insert a sprig of
holly in the top and surround with a border
Of holly Just before its entrance into the
dining room pour over the sugar little
brandy and set fire 70 1t, so that it may come
10 the Christmas table in its traditional blaze
Of glory.
HARD SAUCE
This is the variety par excellence to serve
with the holiday pudding; but, unfortunately,
it is not always made as it should be. First,
if possible, use unsated butter and powdered
sugar-never graduated or confectioner's SUI
gar. Beat half a cupful Of butter until very
creamy, and then add gradually one large cup
ful Of powdered sugar. Beat until very light,
fold in the stiflly whipped white of one egg
and flavor with half teaspoonful of vanilla
extract. Set it on the ice TO chill and serve
heaped in a glass dish and busted with grated
nutmeg.

that applications must be filed year in ad-
vance. Upon completion of its new buildings,
however the school will accommodate one
thousand girls.
The unique interest Of the institute for the
average housekeeper lies in the fact that
somehow it has grapped with and removed
the doep-rooted prejudice against Homework
from the minds Of its American-born pupils,
who are as free TO choose any other profess
sion in a dozen fields in which free tuition is
offered. Vitally interesting, also, is the in
stitute employment agency that has grown
out of the widespread demand for its domes-
tic science pupils, and most significant is the
position demanded for and freely accorded
to them in homes with restricted ideas as to
the treatment Of the "hired girl"
HOW THE WORK STARTED
When I first learned about this unusual
school | went TO see Mr.. Sherwood Shankand,
its superintendent, in a somewhat dubious
frame Of mind.
Might not the housekeepers themselves de-
feat an Andrews Institute girls enthusiasm
for homework by their prejudice and ham
pering restrictions, born Of the old type Of
mental service?
So, woman-like, instead of being grateful
for the first real chance we poor housekeep-
ers have had to get expert professional intel
Hgence brought to bear on our kitchen prob
lens went prepared to find dozen flaws
in this new ideal Of service.
"How do you explain the fact that your
girls are attracted TO homework, with the
prejudice on every hand against it," began.
"a training school for servants has been said
to be an anomaly in democratic country"
"For that there are many answers" said
Mr.. Shankland. "In the first place, our in
stitute is not training school for servants.
To overcome prejudice, it is true that we call
our domestic science course a home-mahng

to cook them. When cooked, add the juice Of

utes. Serve nicely arranged on hot platter
garnished with fresh cress and potato GRO

SNIPE OR QUAIL BOILED IN BUTTER
The birds are trussed in the usual way, and
1t takes three pounds of butter to cook a dozen
birds. The butter may be clarified and useo
again, however, so it is not as extrayagant as
1t sounds. The birds when done are carefully
drained, placed on toast, garnished with pars
ley, and melted currant Jelly is offered hot in
tureen with the birds.
ROAST GOOSE AND G0OSEBERRf
SAUCE
Select goose with clean, white skin, plump
breast and yellow feet. Prepare and truss ID
the usual way, stuffing it with a good onion
and sage stuffing. Roast the bird from a.
hour and three-quarters TO two hours, aceoiI
ing to the size. The gblets may be steweso
then chopped and added to the gravy, or ?.
made into little pie. Serve the goose as sou
as 1t is cooked, so that it does not hatten
the breast before sending TO table. Garnlsn
with fresh cress and parsnip fritters. Inc
gooseberry sauce is made at preserving uhs
usually, and needs only to be taken from '''
jar.
