AS the Summer season of 1916 is
drawing to a close the concensus of
opinion is, that the present season
has been the most delightful for sew
eral years. The climatic conditions
since the middle of July have been
ideal and the island has been team
ing with life. The social life has been
most pleasant with bi-weekly dances
at the Hill Crest, which all have been
cordially invited to participate. Among
the cottage contingent the prin-
cipal social events were the musicale
and tea, given by Mrs Gertrude
Walker-Crowley, in July and the
lecture recital by Mr.. Thomas Erring-
ton Calvert, at the home of Mrs.
Charles E. Myer, at the West End,
and the silver tea and sale for the
benefit of the Imperial relief fund
at the home of Mr.. and Mrs. T. E.

also been many other small teas,
lunch, dinner, card and sailing parties.

METHODS OF PUTTING, UP VARI-
Gus KINDS OF FRUIT.
'Tartaric or Citric Acid Added to the
Juice Will Be Found to Effect an
Representatives. Not Be
Used Always.

1t is just about as easy to make
jelly from apples, ounces, peaches, or
pears as from any other kind of fruit,
if you know how, according to Miss
Addie y. Root Of the Missouri College
of Agriculture. All that is necessary
is to add enough tartaric or citric acid
to the juice to make it taste about as
sour as a good sour APPLE This usu-
ally means about q level teaspoonful
to quart Of juice. 1t destroys the
delicate flavor Of peach and pear juice
somewhat but improves the flavor Of
sweet apple and ounce juice.
Blackberries, blueberries, raspber-
ries, partially ripe grapes, crab ap-
pies, sour apples, and plums usually
make good jelly because they have
enough acid already and also contain
q substance called pectin which must
be present and must be brought out
with the juice by heating If Jelly Ia
to be made. That Is why jelly-makers
do not simply press out the juice from
cold fruit. All apples ana similar
fruits have enough pectin for jelly
making purposes. ;
In making apple jelly cover the
fruit with water before cooking and
boil 20 or 80 minutes. After boil
ing has continued 10 or Is minutes,
add three-quarters of a cupful Of sugar
for every cupful Of juice. : The sugar
that will be required should have been
measured into PIN and warmed in
the oven for while before 1t is added.
1t should be carefully stirred In to pre-
vent burning.
q; . AS soon as the glasses are filed
with the hot jelly they should be set in
q cool place while jellying takes place.
They should be sealed from the air,
but If the jelly has been slightly over
cooked It may be covered with panes
of glass and allowed to harden In the
sun. When 1t is well set pour hot par
affin over the top and put clean tin
covers on the glasses. Store them
away in dry, cool place where the
jelly cannot mold.

DELIGHTFUL PAPER
WEST END COLONY ENTERTAIN-
ED BY Mr.. THOMAS ERRING-
TON CALVERT.
Eminent Lecturer Reads Paper En-
titled War Poems.

Had it not been for threatening
unk1nd skies which looked as if they
would spill rain at any moment the
cottage of Charles E. Wyer at Sunset
Landing would have been filled to it's
utmost capacity on Friday afternoon;
as it was good audience as to num-
bers, an excellent audience as to ca
pacity for appreciation gathered at
$50 to hear Mr.. Thomas Errington
Calvert read his most delightful pa-
per on war poems.
This paper written as it was for
the very select mems literary club of
Portland, the Fraternity Club, proved
to be all and more than had been
promised. Although Mrs. Wyer in a.
few well chosen words of introduce
ton said that Mr.. Calvert's reputa-
ton had gone before him and he had
much to live up to yet she was not
afraid!
What wonderful afternoon it was.
The paper itself is such as only one
OF deepest literary appreciation and
unlimited time could have cuIled and
written, delightful collection of t;:la
writer's of seven people-English,
Scotch, Indian, French. Irish, Welsh
and German, with appreciative criti-
cisms Of both poems and authors.
AS unusual as was the paper itself
Mr.. Calvert's Interpretation and read
ing was inimitable.
1t will be long time before those
present will be able to forget the
pathos of "Its awful lonely evenings"
as the thrill from the splendid lines
of Kipling, a call to England excelling
in strength and excellence perhaps
his Lest We Forget" or the ex-
quisite lines born of the tragic ex-
perience Of Rupert Brook as express
ed in the five 1914 sonnets. All went
away feeling new energy for express
sion Of sympathy in work for the war
sufferers. Such an inspiration. rs
needed now and. again after weeks
of bandages and surgical dressings,
after days of knitting and news of
thousands more wounded and needs
yet far greater than ever before. All
were happy in the goodly sum to be
added to the Imperial Relief Fund
so generously contributed by those
present.
A delightful social hour followed
| when all were glad to express to
| Mr.. Calvert their sincere appreciation
of the great privilege he had given
| them and the great satisfying pleas
ure II had been to them. The cottage
was most charming1y decorated with
| prize dahllas and gladiola from the
| far famed garden of Mr.. Samuel Au-
| gustus Stevens of ct. Diamond Island.
| Tea was poured by Mrs. Thomas Err
| rington Calvert, Mrs. l.. Magruder
! Passano and Mrs. William II. Howell,
assisted by Miss Elizabeth Passano,
Miss Jessie Ridge and Miss Elizabeth

EXPLAINS Why men
ARE GROWING BALD,

Thousands of men are growing bald
every dav and don't know the reason
why. Many of them never expect to
save even what hair is left.
This is indeed pity says a specialist
because badness usually comes from
carelessness and anyone who gives the
scalp a little attention should always an
abundance of good healthy hair. Dust
and dirt help to cause badness by clog
ging the pores in the scalp and giving
the dandruff germs fertile ground for
breeding.
The treatment is very simple: Sham
poo at least once in ten days and de-
stroy the dsndruifSRerms by applying
frequently Parisian Sage, delightful,
efficient preparation that X. 4. Me-
Roberts is now recommending as the
surest treatment to stop falling hair,
to remove dandruff and to refresh and
invigorate the hair roots.
The cost of a generous bottle of
Partisan Sage is very little and drug
