the Sunday closing of every soda

CHICKEN FATS
WORTH KEEPING

Do you throw away the body fat Of
poultry-big layers of clean, sweet,
yellow fat around the gizzard and
found elsewhere around the intestines
of the chicken? If you do, say special
lists of the United States department
of agriculture, you are throwing away
fat which French housewives consider
the finest of fats for making cake5
and especially puff paste. In certain
seasons in New York and other big
cities, this fat is so highly esteemed
that it brings as much as $110 per
pound. So great is the demand for
this fat that many people make
business Of collecting it from butchers
and others who dress poultry before
delivering it to customers. House
wives would do we'll to insist on hav-
ing it delivered il they buy their poui.

cooking they can cut down the amount
Of Cat they must buy for that purpose.

PROPOSAL TO SUSPEND Child LABOR
ACT FOR WAR PERIOD DENOUNCED

children to take the places of men
called for military service 1t is con-
tended that these minors could rem
der their country a valuable favor,
without being permanently restored
to their former conditions. A stipula-
ton would be made that the suspen
sion Of the law would not run after
the conclusion Of hostflities. The bar
r1er would be renewed with the es-
Enlistment of peace.
A storm of protest has been aroused
by the widespread dissemination of
the suggestion that the child labor act
be suspended temporarily. All those
who fought for this enactment are in.
dicating their disapproval Of letting
down the bars, even in the face of an
emergency or for any other reason.
1t is not now believed that Congress
will undertake to face the sentiment
prevailing and seriously consider sus-
pension Of the act. The plan has been
denounced as a crime by Mrs. Carrie
Chapman Gait, president of the Ma
tional Woman Suffrage Association.
There has been no crime commit
ted during the war, and there will be
no crime committed greater than
would be the repeal of the national
child labor law" Mrs. Gait said.
1T required a generation of time
and effort to secure it, and its repeal
would mean the sacrifice of another
generation-the children whom the
enemies of that law are lying in wait
to exploit"

How | Like TarO
BY MRS. w. D. WESTERVELT.

Plain Boiled
After scraping off the rooty outside
boil and serve as you would boiled
potatoes. Mush lightly on your plate
with a fork.
(By the way, the most economical
way to use potatoes is to boil-not
bake-them in the jackets and peel in
kitchen where the skins may come off
as thin as paper)
Fried Taro
Cut cold boiled tarc in thin slices
and fry as you do sweet and Irish
potatoes.
Taro Cakes
After boiling mash while hot and
form into cakes, either frying or bak
ing. II the latter make thinner and
pat with water before setting in oven.
This insures a puffy and crisp crust.
Left over taro can be used this way
1t, however, mashes more easily to
reheat 1t in boiling water.
Soup
Cut little dices of taro and put in
soup 1t is excellent in old fashioned
vegetable soup or added to haha or
luau soup, both of which are made
like milk soup. Mash through a
colander.
Cocktail
Taro makes, while still hot, good
cocktail. Mash and strain If you like for
smoother texture, mix with milk, add
a pinch Of sale and bit Of sugar; or
Cut up hot boiled taro in milk. eat.
ing as you would bread and milk. Cut
only few pieces at a time so as not
to cool it off too much, as the taro
gets hard when cold. Sweet potato is
good IN milk, too. This makes a good
light meal by itself.
Bake
Bake taro as you do potatoes, from
an hour to one and a half hours. In
serving do not cut but break open
to insure a mealy condition.
Mashed Taro
Mash lightly with long tined fork,
salt and serve steaming hot
Taro Cakes la Doughnut
Pound boiled taro smooth, using as
little water as possible; drop in pinch
Of salt; roll in flour, using latter free

Members of Congress Private
Iy Discuss Subject But

pecial Star Bulletin Correspondence)

Especial Star bulletin CorreSponocnCeJ
WASHINGTON, D. c., May 10. -
The expediency of suspending the
operations of the child labor act un-
til the termination of the war is be-
ing much agitated. The sounding OF
sentiment is proceeding both in and
out of Congress. The question has
attracted considerable attention, but
I'D to this time seems to meet with
but little favor.
Many members of Congress have
discussed this subject among them
selves but no man of prominence has
been found to come forward and
openly advocate such action. All
those suggested as being behind the
movement and ready to take 1nltla-
tive in formally proposing a suspen-
sion, have denied any such intention
when informed of the matter.
Several senators and representa-
tives from the Southern states, where
child labor is declared more essential
in the cotton mills and similar enter
prises than in any other section OF
the country, have been credited with
standing sponsor for the proposition.
Earnest denials have been immediate
ly entered. Thus far it has been i'm
possible to place a finger on the
exact origin of this plan.
The reason advanced for the con-
templated action is the necessity for

until the fat just melts away from the
tissues and can be poured off. This
fat becomes rancid easily and should
be kept cool and covered like butter
and used in very few days. Chicken
fat, like goose fat, may be used for
shortening in cakes such as spice cake,
where the seasoning used will mask
any flavor which the fat might have
1t can also be used for frying the
chicken itself or other meats and for

BEAUTY CHATS
"A Sign Of Age
By EDNA KENT FORBES

WHILE HANDS SHOW CLEARLY the con-
dition of ones health, and while
they betray ones age much sooner
than the face does, they are not the
only marks that show the passing
Of youth. One Of the places where
age appears is just in back Of the
ears.
To be sure, the thin-faced woman
is always so bony in this little hol-
low between the ear and the hair,
that she should never allow the
part to show. In the recent-and
past, we hope-skimpy style Of
hair-dressing, many a youthful face
was spoiled in the profile because
the hair was pulled back, leaving
this bare part exposed.
Thin-faced women are not apt to
wrinkle around the ears, but the
fieshy ones are. Two fine wrinkles
appear, growing more deeply cut
with each passing year, and extend
down under the ear into the flesh Of
the neck. Thin women merely
grow thinner and still thinner be-
hind the ear.
One might keep this little tell
tale spot we'll massaged, Of course,
in an effort to build up the needed
firmness there; but by far the best
and easiest plan is to keep the hair
combed loosely over the ears, to
hide that spot. AS a general thing,
the nearer the hair is brought to
cover the ears, the more beet ming
1t is to the profile.
Besides, few women have time
for elaborate massage and many
are coming to believe that massage
can be overdone, and that it is an
overestimated good. Most women
use cold cream only every day or
so, to clear out the dirt that even
hot water and soap will not reach.

The Kid Has Gone to the Colors
The Kid has gone to the Colors
And we don't know what to saw:
The Kid we have loved and cuddled
Stepped out for the Flag today.
We thought him a child, baby
With never a care at all,
But his country called him man-size
And the Kid has heard the call.
He paused to watch the recruiting,
Where, fired by the fife and drum,
He bowed his head to Old Glory
And thought it whispered: "Come!"
The Kid, not being a Stacker,
Stood forth with PATHOLOGY
To add his name to the roster
And God, we're proud Of the boy!
The Kid has gone to the Colors;
1t seems but little while
Since he drilled schoolboy army
In a truly martial style.
But now he's man, a soldier,
And we lend him listening ear,
For his heart is a heart all loyal,
Unscourged by the curses Of fear.
His dad, when he told him, shuddered,
His mother-God bless her!-cried;
Yet, blest with a mother-nature,
She wept with mother-pride.
But he whose old shoulders straight
ended
Was Grandad--for memory ran
To years when he, too, youngster,
Was changed by the Flag to man!
