Road Draas for upkeep.

The road drag is not an equipment
for constructing roads, but it is in
tended for upkeep. 1t should not move
any large quantity of earth, but takes
O small amount of wet earth to or
away from the center Of the road. It
is important to remember that the
road drag does not build roads, but
helps to keep them in repair.

The Appetizing Sandwich
Under this depArtmeutrec

The art of an attractive sandwich
lies in the making. An appetiZing
sandwich is not only palatable, but
carries an appeal TO the eye as well.
Such a sandwich can not be care
lessly slapped together, although it
may be very simple creation.
Many kinds of bread, brown white
nut or raisin, as well as a number of
varieties of salt and sweet crackers,
biscuits and buns may be used as the
foundation for the sandwich.
Homemade bread is perhaps the
better for sandwich making.
Bread when used for this purpose
should be at least a day old.
The attractiveness of the sandwich
depends greatly on the manner of
cutting the bread
The slices should be very thin, with
crust nearly trimmed off.
The bread may be buttered before
slicing This method prevents crumb-
ling and helps the slice of bread to
hold its shape.
If the bread is sliced the knife used
for spreading the butter or filling
should first be dipped into boiling
water
The heat melts the butter and
causes II 10 spread evenly WITHOUT
making the bread heavy.
Sandwiches may be cut in any
shape or form and garnished to suit
the taste Of the maker. Cake, cookie
or doughnut cutters, sharp knives and
scissors may be utilized in shaping
the sandwich.
Bits Of green, such as lettuce
leaves, parsley, etc, when used in the
filling neatly trimmed may be eX-
tended beyond the edge of the bread
Nut and Olive Sandwiches-Peanut
butter is one of the most popular of
sandwich filings, especially is il a
prime favorite with children.
Delicious peanut filing can be made
at home.
A quart of shelled peanuts should
be run through the food chopper af-
ter the finest knife has been screwed
in place.
A tablespoon of butter or olive oil
may be added if desired, although it
is not necessary.
Other varieties of nuts may be

made into butter in the same man

made into butter in the same man
ner.
Butter made in this way will keeI
in a cool place for two weeks to a
month, and is more appetizing thar
the store product, as well as much
more economical because of the low
er cost.
Cream French dressing may be
mixed with the nut butter.
When crackers are used orange or
lemon Juice may be used as fiavoring.
Different varieties of nuts may be
combined or dates and figs may be
added in equal quantities when the
nuts are chopped.
Olives and nuts may be chopped
fine and mixed with mayonnaise.
Cheese may be substituted for the
dressing.
Chopped pecan nuts mixed with
honey form a delicious filling for bis
cult sandwiches.
Vegetable Sandwich Fillings-Let.
tuce, watercress, cucumbers, toma-
toes and parsley are all used in sand
wich filings.
Everybody is, of course, more or
less familiar with the plain lettuce
sandwich made of mayonnaise spread
over lettuce leaves placed between
slices Of bread.
A slice Of dried beef, grated cheese,
minced ham or chicken, chopped nuts
are a great addition to this filling.
Plain sliced tomatoes may be used
with the lettuce filling. Tomatoes
when used in this way should be
sliced very thin, allowed to chill thor
oughly and the sandwich should be
eaten as soon as made.
Tomatoes placed on buttered slices
or brown bread, sprinkled with grated
cheese and chopped peanuts and
spread with French dressing make a
delicious sandwich.
Prepare two slices of buttered
brown bread. Spread cucumbers mar
mated with French dressing on one
slice and chopped olives on the other.
Press the two together and cut the
bread into triangles. The result will
be pleasing as well as appetizing
Watercress may be used alone with
mayonnaise or cut fine and mixed
with chopped stuffed olives, cream
cheese and butter before being spread
Belding banner. (Belding, Mich.) 1889-1918, 1916-01-26

on water thins, saltines or white or
brown bread.
One may never be at loss to util-
ize scraps Of green pepper. Odd bits
Of this vegetable may be combined
with chopped olives enufchatel
cheese, pimento, lettuce or mayon-
naise.
Three hard-boiled eggs chopped
with three green peppers and mixed
with a cup Of mayonnaise makes
substantial filling.
Cheese may be combined with nuts,
raisins, figs, olives, pimentos, salad
dressing of egrens. However used.
it is always best to soften it with
milk.
The Russian sandwich which has
recently been so popular Is a combi-
nation Of cheese, olives, peanut but
ter and bacon.
Egg Combinations-Egg makes a
most nourishing filling. Hard boiled
eggs may be chopped fine and mixed
with French or salad dressing, but
ter or simple lemon juice.
A chopped dill pickle added TO ev-
cry four eggs, boiled hard and sliced,
makes quit a tasty filling. Slices of
hard-boiled eggs, fried eggs, eggs and
bacon or scrambled eggs, containing
ham or Clipped beef laid between let
tuce leaces spread with mayonnaise,
are all appetizing and nourishing as
filings.
All kinds of meat are, Of course,
available for sandwich making.
Minced chicken, ham, tongue and
other meats may be combined with
ms Iraocinoy N nolga daupilp6
sandwiches.
Toasted bread is very popular in
combination with meats.
Minced ham and chicken sand
witches may be prepared in the ordi-
nary way and then placed in the fry
ing pan and Drowned on both sides.
Toasted oyster sandwiches are very
appetizing. They are made with a
filing Of lettuce leaves, mayonnaise
and fried oysters spread on toasted
bread.
Sandwiches are without number, Of
all varieties, and combinations are
in order not only in the picnic menu,
but may be served at home for lunch,
dinner, afternoon teas, at socials and
for the late supper.
The provident housekeeper ought
always TO have on hand filings stored
away in jars, boxes of crackers and
little cakes.
In this way, at a moments notice, a
dainty little luncheon may be pre-
pared or unexpected guests may be
entertained in either the afternoon or
the evening.
A bottle Of grape Juice and quart
Of lemonade strip kept on hand in the
ice box are very convenient.
Hot chocolate, tea, or coffee may be
served with the sandwiches.

Contribute. If / must pay tribute to
Neptune, he shall find me Generous.
So sought the Cabin, and / ate
Good Meal, and paid Three
Francs for the same, and the Half of
a Franc gave to the Garcon. And
when / came on Deck the Channel had
on its Best Bib and Tucker, and that
is Going Some.
And / found my friend stretched
out on a Bench, and he Rallied at me,
and Mocked me, and said, Thou shalt
pay we'll for thy Folly. Behold, if /
am Sick, having eaten nothing, what
shall it be to a Glutton like thee?
And l was minded TO say unto him
TO hold his Peace, but at that NOM
ent the Ship gave a lurch, and he held
his peace without my telling him to
do so. Yea, and that was all he held
Yea, and on the voyage, which
seemed unto him to be longer than it
really was, he made many journeys
to the side Of the Ship, and back to
the Bench. And each time he went
he Hated me the more. And he look
ed ihs Hatred, and he spake not.
For there is no hatred like that Of
a man who is Seasick, and who seeth
another man Well! yea, especially if
he himself hath Boosted or Given adj
vice.
For it came to pass that day that
/ suffered not at all. Yea, as God had
given me Appetite and Good Square
Meal, so also did He give unto me
Good Digestion. But my friend had
none of these things. Yea, on that
day was fulfilled the word that unto
him that hath shall be given, and so it
was given to me. But from him that
had not taken away even that which
he had.
And / consider these things, and /
said TO my soul that ! would Take
such Blessings as God should send to
me, and Use them as they Came.

Parable of che Channel Luncheon

Now it came to pass in the days be-
fore the Great War, while yet a man
might make a Pilgrimage and not en-
counter a Bomb dropped on him from
the Heavens above, or a Submarine
in the Waters beneath, that | journey
ed from a land named France and a
Gay City called Paris, TO a Land call
ed Britannia, which at that time Rul-
ed the Waves, and to a city called
London. And part of the way | jour
neyed by Land till / came TO town
called Calias, where | found a Ship
awaiting me, and | sailed TO a town
called Dover. And there was with me
a man whom | had met on my Jour
ney, and we entered the Ship togeth-
er.
Now it was about Midday, and
hungered, and | said TO my friend
Come, let us enter into the Cabin,
where Table is spread, and let US
Eat.
And my friend said to me. Not on
thy life. Knowest thu not that this
is the English Channel, and that the
same hath a Surly Temper, and it
lieth in Wait for the man who hath
had Luncheon, and Taketh it Away
from him?
But l said unto him, Say not so.
1t may be the Channel will be Good
today; and if not, we can but lose
what we have gained.
And he said, Have the French left
thee any Money? Throw it not into
the Channel; for Luncheon on these
Ships costeth Two-and-Six, which is
the same as Three Francs, and thou
wilt need the same when thou contest
to London.
And | considered what he said, for
the French had left me little Money,
and the British Isles were awaiting
for That Little. For the English scorn
us Americans because we love the
Dollar; therefore do they gladly take
our Dollars away from us, that they
may change them into Shillings. And
they think it a sin to love Dollar,
but Great Virtue to love a Shilling
So | considered what my friend had
said. Nevertheless / spake to him.
Nay, my friend. | still have a few
pieces of Gold, and think l can spare
enough silver to pay Two-and Six for
Luncheon, and another sixpence for
the Garcon who shall serve me. And
| will eat.
He said, A Fool and his Luncheon
are soon Parted.
But | said, Even if | shall be
Separated from my Luncheon after
have received it, yet will bear it as
best may Yea, and / think shall
be better so. For it is strain upon
the Muscles of a man TO Strike at
Nothing, and it is Vexation Of spirit
TO argue with a man who hath no
Reason; so also is it a Painful Thing
to be Required to Contribute to the
Atlantic when one hath Nought to

Today's Poem
WHEN THE HEART STRINGS ARE
TIME

WHEN THE HEART STRINGS ARE
IN TUNE
The hallelujahs ring for US when the
hS3rt strings are in tune
AS flowers bloom and verdure smiles
beneath the skies of June,
AS air-sped songsters in their haste
come warbling natures praise
When winters chill and ice and snow
yields place to balmy days.
The hallelujahs ring for US when the
mood is in the soul,
When a larger, better, purer life Is
reached for as its goal.
With the efforts made, the song will
come, with the work will be the
joy,
There is no cost, no sacrifice, no loss
in Gods employ.
The hallelujahs ring for us upon the
Great Divide
Where austere sects and mouldy
creeds from the clearer light
might hide;
When what the world calls piety
might blush in rags of shame
As the nobler Golden Rule shall set
the soul with zeal afams.
The hallelujahs ring for us, the
photograph Of heaven
Sends the vibrations to the soul from
records we have given.
It's wireless registers our deeds, our
standing in Gods sight,
Somehow, He knows, comes back TO
US, more cheer, more Joy, more
light.
The hallelujahs ring for us when the
heart strings are in tune,
Good strings and taut and strong in
place and from discord i'm
mune,
And having, as the star has led, tried
to add to life's good cheer,
Well trust the rest ia Him who rings
the hallelujahs here.
L. B. Mitchell.
