The HIGHWAY

Daniel Webster. prefscing the argu-
ment in one of his greatest debates,
arose, and with calm deliber alton that
gave finish to his oratory. declared
that the first thought of mariner, fol-
lowing a severe storm upon the sea,
was to get his bearings. On the occa-
sion mentioned Webster's speech fol.
lowed period of doubt and hesitation
during which his colleagues had been
giving vent to impassiuned pleas.
In the case of the Columbia River
Highway, as to whether or not it shall
be a te-maintained thoroughfare,
the most of US. it seems, have lost our
bearings. The road eventually must be
a state road. Logically and justly the
state should maintain it. The State
Highway Commission, however, cannot
at the present time, take it over. Still
this should be explained in no indef-
mite terms to the people. If there be a
definite plan it should be made known.
Instead of a chasm between the Com
mission and county courts there should
be maintained cooperation, whereby
beneficial results might be reached.
There should be no shifting of respon-
sibility for political purposes. If the
pre.campaign promises of 1912 are to
be carried into execution. as they
should as obligations of honor, there
should be no equivocation about the
matter. Qiubbling leads to suspicion.
and suspicion to such untimely resolu-
tions as that adopted by the Pine
Grove Grange last week.

BARBECUE AND BURG00.
Often Confused, the Words Have En-
tirely Different Meanings.

Barbecue and burgoo are both words
Of American birth, but of foreign ex-
traction.
Barbecue is u variation of West In
dian-Spanish barbacoa, a low frame
work on which meat or fishes are laid
to be smoked From the framework
the word came to be applied to the ar
ticle thus smoked or cooked. Strictly
speaking, 1t applies only to an animal
cooked entire, as a whole sheep or
whole OK, but 1t is not held strictly to
that usage.
The modern barbecue is the cooking
Of meat on large scale by roasting
or broiling in such way as to pre-
serve its juices and flavor.
Burgoo is of English origin, coined
by sailors to designate thick porridge
or Cruel, sometimes also called loblolly.
American burgoo is a thick soup or
stew composed of the fat and juices
Of barbecued animal thickened with
variety of vegetables and highly sea.
sOned.
1t sometimes has been spelled bur-
gout, under an impression that 1t is
derived from the French, but that is
a mistake.
There Is no rule or recipe for max
ing it except experience and genius
for making savory and eatable COM

and fowl, cereals, vegetables and any.
