THE COST ITEMIzED.

Cost of Miss Zurhorsts dinner, calcu-
lated at prevailing market prices here,
and planned for six guests:
COURSE 1.
The Washington herald., 1916-12-25


The high cost OF living doesn't seem
SO high after all when you study this
menu planned by Miss Mary Ailine Eur
horst, principal Of the National School Of
Domestic Science. These tempting dishes
can be prepared in a quantity sufficient
to satisfy the keenest hunger Of six
guests at the reasonable cost OF $6.72.
Miss Zurhorst's menu may in a way
suggest a partial solution for the high
cost OF living. She has calculated 1t by
strictly scientific deducatons. Waste has
been brought to the minimum. Perhaps
the average housewife would spend 80
and even more in preparing such a din
ner.
II you have not already written your
Christmas dinner menu, try this one
When you have finished the last course
you will feel most satisfied.
Her menu is not only practical and
tempting but also novel The "MistletOe
Cocktail" could not be a more appropri-
ate appetizer for the Yuletide season.

AUTOS CARRY MANY
 ID YOSEMITE VALLEY

CAMP CURRY, Yosemite Valley, July 22.-ln the contest between steam and gasoline for the control of tourist travel into the Yosemite valley, gaso- line has won. An estimate just com pleted by the park authorities show that of the 9,6SS people who entered the park previous to July 1 this sea son, 5,623 travelled in private motor cars or came up from the San Joa- quin valley in stages of the Horseshoe line. When allowance is made for the 1,50O tourists carried by the Horseshoe stages, private automobiles show a total of 4,065 passengers as against 4,123 carried by the railroad.
 Approximately $500 of the 9,6SS people who entered the park were tourists, the remainder being employees of the various concessioners. Four thousand two hundred and seventy two of the tourists registered at Camp Curry and the balance were scattered among five other resorts and more than 150 private camps
 Park Superintendent w. B. Lewis is authority for the statement that July will very probably show an even great CT preponderance of automobile travel than the earlier months of the season. He believes that the final average for this month will not be far short of 90 cars per day. The unusual amount of water in the falls and the good con dition of all the roads leading into the park are combining to greatly increase late season travel to the valley.
