The views of Isabel Gordon Curtis,
who Is we'll known in every American
household through her long service in
solving the cooking problems for the
readers of Good Houseking, Golfers,
Delineator and Success Magazine are
in complete harmony with the Food
Administration upon the all import
ant question-BREAD.
When the query was recently put to
Isabel Gordon Curtis, Where and
how did you learn to COOKE" she went
back to the days of her childhood,
which were spent in Scotland.
"If 1 was eager for one thing" she
confesses, 1T was to get into the
kitchen on baking days. Baking day
in Scottish kitchen is very different
from that in America. No yeast raised
bread is made, no cakes, cookies, pies.
or doughnuts. Twice a week Scotch
housewife piles a tray full of crisp
oatcakes. They are baked on a grid
die, then dried on little hanging
shelf in front of a red peat fire. There
is batch of puffy scenes, also griddle-
baked; but no sweet stuff. The stoves
are long ranges built into the wall;
they never fire up enough to bake any
thing that needs more heat than a
milk pudding. Then Scotch women do
not know the secret of bread making,
for loaf bread as it is called, comes
from the bake shops. For me there
was no fascination Of watching bread
rise or the mysterious process of
kneading. Only l loved to roll out my
own little oatcakes and scenes and
bake the tiny batch on the edge OF
the griddle."

Ute Independent: We are sorry to
notice, through articles in different
that the volunteer SOL
diers seem to think they have not been
properly appreciated, all because the
home folks prepared demonstrations
upon the departure of the conscripted
soldiers to the training camps. We
can say for the Independent-and we
believe it to be the universal senti-
ment-that there can never be great
er measure of appreciation felt to-
ward any Of our soldiers than that
feeling of pride we have stored away
in our memory for the boy that did
not wait for the draft, but said I'm
off to help Uncle Sam" And he was
off-off like shot. He barely waited
to bid his friends goodby. He was
gone before the community was able
to grasp the idea that we would have
to contribute our young manhood to
the cruel fortunes Of war. Do we hon.
or him? Will we ever forget that we
looked upon him as a mere boy, yet
he stepped out at the first call and
filed the full measure of man? New
er will we forget him and fail to do
him honor. American people seldom
give vent to their finest and most
precious sentiments. and their senti-
ments toward the volunteer are OF
that character. That is why we are
sorry the complaint has ever been ut
tered. We are proud that the Amerl.

enough to love and praise all the sol
diers of the nation, whether they be
