With meat at present prices, the
American housekeeper thinks hard when
told that cheese has about one and one
half az much muscle-building value as
beef, pound for pound. She combines
cheese with milk and eggs and makes q
dish that rules out the roast, leaving
beef for the soldiers and the allies.
Here are q few substantial cheese
dishes that may be served sometimes In.
stead of meat. They call for any hard
commercial cheese or cottage cheese.
CHEESE ROLL.
IL cup rice
cup milk
Tablespoon chopped onion and pars-
ley
"a cup grated cheese or cottage
cheese
IL cup mashed potato
Pepper and salt to taste
Cook the rice in the milk with the
chopped onion and parsley, then add the
cheese, mashed potato, pepper and salt.
Form into a roll, brush with fat drip
pings and brown in oven.
This roll can be made up with many
variations. Bread crumbs, beans and
cheese may be combined, using enough
OF the liquor in which the beans were
cooked to moisten the mixture 80 that
it can be made into loaf. The beans
should be mashed. Still another com.
bination is made by substituting for the
beans spinach or chard chopped fine.

The firm of Voss & Loeschow
began work Monday morning on
our new gymnasium floor. The
heavy cement foundation is now
thoroughly dry and the maple
flooring will provide us a very
fine gymnasium. Basketball
practice will start as soon as the
floor is completed. A majority of
the high school have joined the
Athletic association. The mem
bership fee is only twenty-five
cents. This ticket admits to the
first basket ball game. It is to be
hoped that every high school
student will become a member Of
the association.
We are now in the eighth
week of the terms work. Re-
ports were sent to parents at the
close Of the first six weeks. In
all cases of failure to do passing
work parents should confer with
the teachers to find out the
cause. A number of parents have
called at the building in the in

also. Other provinces have registered
about the same kind of metals. some
with the addition OF sulphur. The as
phalt beds of Cuba. it is believed. and
the bitumen deposits in general will
eventually prove superior to any others
in the world. The possibilities of a
great industry from them are already
nromising. Some oil has also been pro-
duced in Cuba. Mineral waters of
great merit are found at number of
uoints in the island, and the springs
have for years been popular among the
inhabitants.
