KAISER'S CHEF
 COOKS BANQUET
 FOR ALLY FEAS1
No Trace of .Crones Consomme. However, at Poincare,s
 -a TabIeg1sL s7M 6zzoc

Paris, May 16-Through the for- tunes of war. one of the chefs. the most appreciated by Emperor William and the Crown Prince in recent years fed the delegates to the conference of the allies recently held in Paris. He was loaned to President Poincare by Jules Cambon, who, brought him back to Paris from Berlin, where he had frequently had the honor. of cook. ing for the Emperor.
 The President decided at the outset that there should be no men, apt for smilitary duty, sheltered at the EIysee during the war. Every man of mo biIizable age, went to the front. in- cluding the chef and a, considerable number of other valuable servants. The presidents table, which had gain ed largely in reputation since the ad- vent of Monsieur Poincare, suffered in consequence. The difficulty was not serious during the first stages of the war, since no official dinners or banquets were given / The visits of the distinguished representatives of the allied powers, however, caused a great deal. of anxiety until Monster Cambon proposed his chef. The man who had tickled the Kaiser's pal ate was considered sufficiently quali- fed and allowed to prepare the his torical banquet of the Allies.

 TODAY'S POEM
THAT LITTLE BOY AND I

Looking upward at the mirage
 In the flny cloudIand low Playing marbles in the sunset,
 Is boy I used to know; In a group of lads just gathered,
 There reflected in the skies With the golden glow of childhood
 Shining in his happy eyes. And he shoots with such precision. As he pockets all the pile, And the marbles jingle gay1y
 As he shakes them with a. smile. Cant go home because I'm a win
 ner,'' I smile back with comprehension At the boy that once was me. Oh! lost joys of little boy-time,
 Mockingt me with glad surprise, As gaze in solemn wonder,
 Rainbok mist through weeping
 eyes;
 Watching with a numbing heartache Playing there in boyish glee Through the Slow of golden sunset, A little boy that once was me. Take my millions, little conrade, Little boy that once was me, Fling them to the losers, winner, Fling them all, just once to be Trudging home again to mother,
 Back to her, just you and I, Then to feel her arms embracing Drawn there by the evening sky. -Sallie A. Fisher in St. Louis Globe Democrat.

This is an o1d-fashioned salad and a very good one. Cut half a dozen slices of bacon in cubes and fry a light brown. Add two tablespoons of vinegar to the dripping. also half a teaspoon of salt and liberal sprink- ling of paprika. Meantime wash, and drain the lettuce very thoroughly; it must have no moisture in it when ready to- dress. Then cut across in several places, and place in a salad bowl, Pour the hot dressing over it, and serve immediately. Watercress or other greens may be dressed in this way.

THE TOWN. BEAUTIFUL
MOVEMENT


 The prevailing mode of town de- velopment for the. past 25 years in progressive towns has been to lay out streets in checkerboard form at right angles. Some theorists of civic pro- gress have advanced the idea of late that layout of curving streets is
 more beautiful. They point to Ger man cities that followed this plan to a large extent before the war. The right ang1ed plan they condemn as too stiff. formal, and geometrical.
 In towns having hills or bluffs, curving streets are frequently needful to conform to the lie of the land. But there are some practical objecti ons to them on level ground. They us l ually make more steps for man and Ebeast, though it is true that in some instances they gdoS cut corners They lead to irregular Shaped lots, and pro mote a, more scattered development of the town necessitating larger expense for street and sidewalk and sewer development.
 The laying out of streets is a mat ter to be strictly controlled by muni- cipaI authorities. In the more pro- gressfve towns it is usually so regu- lated. In some of the older and less advanced places, there is a disposition to allow real estate men to run streets in any criss-cross way that will produce the most house lots Straight streets connecting with each other di- rectly across town have a beauty of their own. If well planted with trees long and pleasing vistas are created, making a. harmonious whole, and giv- ing an impression of space and, digni- fled arrangement.
 A great number of cities have of late taken up the idea of town plan ming boards. Few men would think of constructing house without a plan. If it is a house of much value, they call in a first class architect But until within a few years, most towns were content to grow without any publicly adopted plan for de- ve1opment. The result is frequently crazy patchwork streets, the lack of suitable park land, the failure to se- cure lots needed in the future for schools and other public buildings, for which high prices will have to be paid later.
