APPROPRIATE DISHES FOR EASTER WEEK

addition Put in the Juice of half lemon,
saltspoonfu of salt, dash of paprika or cayenne
and a half cupfu of boiling water. Set the bows
containing the mixture in saucepan of boiling
water and stir rapidly and constantly until It
thickens like boiled custard Tarragon vinegar
may be used in place of the lemon juice with the
addition of few tarragon leaves blanched and
cut up very small.
Scrambled eggs with green peppers make very
good Easter dish. For four five persons at
least six eggs should be used. Toast slices of
bread for each person and lay in dish to keep
hot. Put tablespoonful of butter in the frying
pan, and while heating break the eggs into
bowl Allow tablespoonful of cream water
to each egg. Milk is not good for Omelettes or
scrambled eggs. AS soon as the butter is melted
and begins to bubble. turn the eggs in and as the
whites begin to setAift and stir with silver fork.
Have ready two finely chopped sweet green pep
pers from which the seeds have been removed,
and after the eggs begin to cook stir the peppers
through the mixture Cook Ealf moment, dish
on the hot toast, garnish with little watercress
or parsley and serve at once.
A beautiful-ooking salad to serve at Easter
is the water lily salad, which is delicious to the
taste as it's appearance suggests. To make this
salad cut the whites of hardboiled eggs into point
ed, petal-like strips Keep out couple OF yolks,
but mash the rest. Mix with mayonnaise and fill
the calyx of the arranged petals with the mixture.
Put the remainder over the petals to give the APP
pearance of pollen. Cut lettuce leaves in fine
points to simulate the outer leaves. Served on
a low glass dish this salad appears at its best 1t
is better served individual glass dishes than
on larger platter.
Green pepper, lettuce and tomato sal&d. Crisp
the lettuce leaves by laying in cold water for half
an hour Then shake dry and lay on the ice. Take
the sweet green or red peppers and with a pair Of
scissors cut the peppers in lengthwise ribbons.
Slice the tomatoes. Arrange the tomatoes the
lettuce leaves and sprinkle the pepper ribbons
over ALL Dress with mayonnaise or French dress

posed both to have played part in the cOnstruc-
ton of the Christian Easter Whether Easter
was named from the Anglo Saxon Eostre. goddess
of spring, or from another root which signiied
"the rising" the meaning seems much the same,
and today the universal use of flowers as the most
appropriate Easter token testif1es to the general
recognition of their appropriateness as symbolic

sengers in One Office and Expert
'ment Proves Successful.

'Did you ever see anything like II
In all your life?" Manager Fowler OF
the Western Union Telegraph office at
New Brunswick, N. J., asked referring
to one of his messenger girls, referring
ing to the New York Herald. She was
turning the corner on the run with
telegram in her hand which she was
on her way to deliver.
She was Annie Ford, pioneer of the
messenger girl service of America. She
was smiling and the expression on her
face seemed to say, This is the life"
The girl fairly radiated with happi-
ness,
Miss Ford has had the place only a
few weeks. Just after she began duty
Violet Gallagher, 1916 graduate of
the New Brunswick high school, joined
the Western Union forces. Both girls
took to the work like ducks take to
water.
The girls went into the messenger
service because New Brunswick boys
who heretofore had been available for
messenger service are engaged in the
industries now. Mr.. Fowler had
problem to solve and after much
thought offered positions on the mes
senger force to girls at ST day. The
results have been most gratifying. The
girls are intelligent, Of pleasing APP
pearance, and their businesslike man-
ner has made them great public IA
vorites.
The experiment seems decided sue
cess and is being watched by other
telegraph office managers. The girls
are especially valuable since the zone
system has been put into effect, and
there is time limit for the delivery
of messages The girls work only in
the day time.
