SHEEP AND LAMB MARKET LOWER

I Portland market. II was an unlucky
movement as Indicated by the fact
that in several lines the market was
lower.
This is especially true Of the sheep
and lamb division. Top lambs are OFF
CSC and previous sales with the ex-
treme mark at $13.25 while ewes are
off about soc.
There was a rather liberal demand
of mutton and lambs reported on the
market during the day. Demand at
the best is limited and it does not
take much stuff to overload this
branch of the trade at the moment

PROTECTIVE HOME CANVASS RESULTS
 IN GREAT SUCCESS
More Than $6,7O0 Is In So Far, and About $1O,OOO
 May Be Obtained.

With s6,757.51 in cash and many pledges still to be redeemed, the fnan- cial campaign of the Bridgeport Pro- tective association proved a great suc- cess. Announcement of the splendid amounts was made at a tea yesterday afternoon at the residence of Mrs. Walter s. Wilmot, !, 50S Stratford ave- nue. Before recording the figures upon a blackboard where all might see them, Miss Katheryn Hewitt, super intendent of the Protective Headquar- ters, gave a brief talk thanking the women for their faithfulness to the association and their earnest efforts to get funds for it. As in past years, 40 per cent of the total amount of the campaign came in during the two months following it's close, it is ex- pected that the $10,00O for which all were working this year will be at tained.
 The amounts sent in by, the outlying districts, Stratford, Devdn, Fairfield Trumbull and Newtown were yespe- cially gratifying to members of the association.
 All the district leaders and their workers were present at the tea yes terday afternoon. Mrs. M. H.. Ford presided at the tea table.

Officials Plan New Measures to Meet
 Shortage of Food

London, Feb. 21.-Further vigorous measures for dealing with the food situation in Germany have been out lined in a statement to the Berlin press by Dr. George Michaelis, the new Prussian food commissioner, ac- cording to an Amsterdam dispatch.
 Dr. Michaelis said he had come to an agreement with Adolf Won Batocki, president of the food regulation board, and Gen. Groener, head of the army feeding department, that food ques tions must be dealt with in the speed fest possible way and that all red tape restrictions should be ignored. The Prussian minister has been empow- cred to act apart from the Prussian cabinet and has been given consider able authority to penalize recalci- trants. Among other things he has been authorized to close mills and bakeries which disobey orders.

PLAZA.

That tomorrow is the anniversary of the birth of the Father, of the Country is not the only feature about the day that is bringing a smile of pleasureable anticipation to the facS- of Bridgeporters. Is not fascinating Norma Talmadge coming to the Plaza in her new million-dollar production, "Panthea,'? And is not that alone sufficient to bring out the smiles cen wher6 scowl had before reigned majestically supreme? Is there a. more popuiar or more winsome young woman enjoying the thrills of star dom upon the screen today or is there man, woman or child in all of Bridgeport who is not filled with de- light over the announcement of her appearance in so elaborate a dramatic accomplishment as "Panthea"? At any rate the odds are in her favor and we feel that there will be proof enough during the coming three days engagement at the Plaza.
 Mazda Dahl and Co1asanto's Musi- cia4s are scoring triumphantly on the bill the first half of the week which will be given final presentation this evening.

II skilled musicians under the masterly direction of Colasanto.

her success was great. A sOlOist of distinction and authority, Miss Jor- dan's successes in oratorio and con- cert have been without number and the press comments given her in all sections of the East have been most favorable.
 One of the most difficult parts in the sacred opera is to be taken by Miss Jordan. Miss Jordan's tones are mel low and sympathetic, and she has marked skill in vocalization and has great authority and variety in molding phrases and communicating grave or gay feeling. Few artists have ap- peared in Bridgeport who have more quickly or truly found favor, than Miss Jordan in her recent great success here.
 It is said that her art is even more beautiful than her voice and that she has wide range, of expression, whcih finds itself in great favor with audi ences wherever she is heard.
 Other soloists for next Tuesday ev- ening will be Heinrich Meyn, the bari tone and Merlin Davies, the celebrat- ed Welsh tenor, whose successes in concert and oratorio have ben numer- ous. There will be an elaborate cho- rus of Oratoria society singers, to- gether with a great semi-chorus, real ly two choruses numbering $50 per sons. IThea New York Symphony or chestra, better known as the Walter Damrosch orchestra of 50 pieces, in cluding a harp, will furnish the in strumental music for the sacred ora torio.
 X Dr. Arthur Mees, the conductor has been getting the choruses and princi- pals in shape, and it is expected that everything will proceed with smooth ness and exactness in every detail.

APPROPRIATE DISHES FOR EASTER WEEK

addition. Put In the juice Of a half n lemon, n
tablespoonful of salt, n dash of paprika or cayenne
and a half cupful of boiling water. Set the bowl
containing the mixture In a saucepan Of boiling
water and stir rapidly and constantly until 1t
thickens like boiled custard. Tarragon vinegar
may be used in place of the lemon juice, with the
addition Of a few tarragon leaves blanched and
cut up very small.
Scramble eggs with green peppers make q very
good Easter dish. For four or five persons at
least six eggs should be used. Toast slices of
bread for each person and lay in a dish to keep
hot. Put a tablespoonful of butter in the frying
pan, and while heating break the eggs into a
bowl. Allow n tablespoonful Of cream or water
to each egg. Milk is not good for omelettes or
cramble eggs. AS soon as the butter Is melted
and begins to bubble, turn the eggs in, and as the
whites begin to set lift and stir with q 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 q half moment, dish
on the hot toast, garnish with a little watercress
or parsley and serve at once.
A beautifullooking salad to serve at Easter
is the water lily salad, which Is as delicious to the
taste as its appearance suggests. To make this
salad cut the whites Of hard-boiled eggs into point
ed, petal-like strips. Keep out a 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 mp
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 on individual glass dishes than
on a larger platter.
Green pepper, lettuce and tomato salad. Crisp
the lettuce leaves by laying in cold water for half
an hour. Then shake dry andlay on the ice. Take
the sweet green or red peppers and with a pair of
scissors cut the peppers in le%ngthwise ribbons.
Slice the tomatoes. Arrange the tomatoes on the
lettuce leaves and sprinkle the pepper ribbons
over all. Dress with mayonnaise or French dress

Eggs. ham, chicken and salads figure c%onsplcu-

Here Is n good recipe for smothered chicken,
which may well be the principal item of an Easter
luncheon or dinner. Split the chicken down the
back. season with salt and pepper, and dredge
well with flour on both sides. Put into a bake
nan n small cupful of stock and n quarter OF a
pound of butter. Arrange the giblets on the bot
tom and on them lay the chicken, breast down.
Cover the pan closely and basic every ten or
twelve minutes. Allow about fifteen minutes to
the pound in roasting. When tender take out the
chicken and lay on a hot plate. Wash the glib
let's, add a cup of rich cream and serve with bis
cult. These should be buttermilk or beaten bis
cult.
To make chicken a Ia Baltimore, prepare the
chicken as for boiling; then cut into joints, wipe
dry, season we'll with salt and pepper and dip
into beaten eggs; then roll In fine bread crumbs.
Place In n well buttered pan, pour olive Oil or
melted butter over them and bake In a steady
oven for twenty-five minutes. When tender re-

fritters and thin, crisp slices Of bacon.
A savory egg dish for an Easter luncheon or
supper includes eggs and artichokes. To make
this dish steam or cook in highly salted water as
many artichoke buttons as there are guests to
serve. Brown d~elicately in butter as many rounds
of thin bread, each piece a little larger In diam
eter than are artichoke buttons. Place the arti-
chokes on the rounds of bread, and then over each
one drop a poached egg, trimmed to the exact
size of the bread foundation. Pour over the egg
n small quantity Of sauce Hollandaise. Add a dash
of paprika and serve hot.

For two dozen buns scald one cupful of milk,
add to II n tablespoonful of butter, quarter of q
cupful of sugar and n saltspoonful of salt. When
softened in n little warm water, and n pint Of
flour. This should be mixed early In the evening.

cupful Of sugar, quarter of n teaspoonful OF
mixed cinnamon, nutmeg and mace, n half cupful
of currants, a tablespoonful of shredded candied
lemon peel and enough flour to make n dough
that can be kneaded. Knead well and set in a
warm place overnight. In the morning turn out
on a well-loured board and divide into pieces
weighing about three ounces each. Pat them out
round, let them stand for n few minutes, then roll
into oblong shapes and lay in n creased dripping
pan far enough apart for expansion.
Anglo-Saxon myth and Jewish pascha are sup
posed both to have played n 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 slgnlfed
"the rising" the meaning seems much the same,
and today the universal use of flowers as the most
appropriate Easter token testihes to the general
recognition of their appropriateness as symbolic
ing a rising from the dead.

Employers liability laws In the diff

factor In bringing about-the present at
tiude Of the business world toward
liquor. Corporation managers, investi-
eating the causes Of accidents In mill

to the drink habit. Hence the reason
for the famous rule G" Of the Ameri-

abstinence requirements Of big bust

In line with this comes the Michigan
Workmen's Compensation Mutual Of
Detroit, which, we learn from the West

has sent Its members q circular letter
on the booze question. We quote:

Judge that after drinking ut the bar
he felt the drunken stupor coming on

did not suppose the saloonkeeper
would permit him to sleep off his in

LIQUOR BUSINESS AND LABOR.

"The average workingman fears be-
ing out OF, a job more than he does
going to hell, and the liquor interests
have capitalized on this fear" said
Rev. Charles Stelzle before the Fed
eral Council Of Churches. And he
pointed out that:
"If the money now invested In the
liquor business were invested in the
average American industry 1t would
give employment to four times as
many workingmen, who collectively
would receive four times as much in
the form of wages, and four times as
much raw material would be required
than is now the case in the liquor bust
ness"
Mr.. Stelzle said that the number Of
workingmen employed in the liquor
business has been greatly exaggerated.
The liquor interests purchase annually
only about an average Of $40 worth Of
produce from each farmer in the Unit
ed States.
