phenomenal success In the world OIL
musical comedy in the music recording
field, Is to be heard In song gem from
her own repertory:. Drip. Drip. Drip
Went the Waterfall" a romantic de-
scriptiye Of love amid sylvan scenes.
In soprano as silvery as the Ian
ruuage of the crystal waterfall. MISS
wheaton describes In her own delight
fully naive way the course OF true
love that was subject to interruptions
even though far from the maddenins
crowds-by the birds, bull-frogs. dragon
flies and an overlapping waterfall.
For warm tonal contradiction
sprightly Sayety to orEan-like solemnity
1T would be hard to surpass "Midsum-
,ner Bells" the second Of Howard
Ecpn's exclusive Columbia record series
Of Sylophone solos.
No modern song composer has so per-
rectly demonstrated that the sweetest
things are the simplest things as has
Americas own song-poetess. Carrie
JacobsBond.
And no singer has ever sung her songs
with more heart-appeal than Is mani
tested In Vernon Stiles Columbia

the best known Of Mrs. Bonds compost
tons.

cal team work Of Elizabeth srice ana

The Ghost Of the Ukulele." from the
winter Garden Show Of Wonders.
The "shivcry" hauntingly tunetul
measures Of this pretty Hawaiian mu-
s!eal copccit are delivered with the Same
soprano and tenor nicely that always
sends the song offerings Of Rrice and
King over the footlights with such
sure hit" effectiveness.
Who ever heard Of a "souse" fox trot?
Well, there Is such trot. and 1t comes
from the Columbia laboratories under
the title of GLORIOUS Sousc Song"
Carroll Clark, supreme imitator OF
negro dialect and baritone OF reputa-
ton, has added "Swance River" to his
Columbia record repertory Of Fosters
songs Of the south.
There Is in Mt Carroll's baritone much
of the mellow richness and warmth
characteristic OF the negro voice. And
the banjo accompaniment OF Fred Van
Eps completes a most appealing tona1
ricture Of m old darkey, singing his
song of home lonRings to mournful
banjo accompaniment.
One Of the most amusing comedy rec
ords ever issued by the Columbia
Graphophone company is recording by
Gene Greene, baritone. entitled "Buzzin'
the Bee"
One Of the best songs of Her Soldier
Boy" perhaps one of the most success
full OF New York's 1917 shows, was the
rappy song Home Again"
A clever fox-trot arrangement Of this
pretty bit Of melody Is announced In
Columbia record form. And Princes

Joy woven into the two expressive words
Of the title.

The Soldiers Woman
Writes

Letters from a Washington wOm-
an TO her sister in Michigan telling
how one woman is cooperating with

Washington, ID. G.
Dear Edith-It was one thing 70
learn how TO use the ordinary left

ing the clean plate rule-that was
another matter.
1 didn't discuss this angle of the
problem when talking TO Jack and
the children in getting them to stop
saying. Il don't like" and Il can't
eat" so that il was quite a surprise
20 me when our dear, retiring Mar
garet offered quick solution. She
doesn't usually say much, but she
does a lot of thinking in that wise
16-year-old head of hers.
"Of course food left on our plates
can't be used again, which leaves
no way out except to see that there
is no such thing" she suggested.
WhereupOn Jack giggled apPre-
ciatively.
Right you are, Kittens" he as
sured her, but looked 10 me for a
definite plan.
How stupid of me-" I exclaimed,
a bit ashamed that 1 had been puz-
zled by so simple a problem.
81 had not quite understood why
the food administration was asking
us to make smaller rolls and muf-
fms. and to serve smaller cuts of
butter and meat, but now that I
think of the half-eaten rolls, pieces
of meat, and other food that finds
its way into the garbage can via our
individual plates, it's all very clear
told them.
WhereupOn we agreed to a re-
turn TO that old custom which CON
sidered it a mark Of ill-breeding to
leave food on che plate, ana made

French Recipes to Try

Visitors to Paris, and other parts
OF France. often hear the phrase
'bonns cuisine bourgeoise"; but
they do not always have a chance to
judge Of it's merits. because Of the
fact that the hotel and restaurant
cooking, eood as it is, is quite a diff
ferent thing from the simple and
wholesome home cooking of the
country For the benefit OF those
who would like 20 try this "bonne
cuisine bourgeoise," Nine. Berthe
JuHenne Low has written an inter-
esting and excellent cook book.
which she calls simply French
Home Cooking" This is published
in New York and is really, as she
saws. designed for Americans, for
whom French recipes must be sPe-
cially adapted, because the products
Of France differ little from those Of
America. Here are some of her re-
cipes: First Of all an omelet. for a
French omelet is delicious dish.
Nothing is more simple to make
than an omelet, and few things are
more delicious when we'll made .
An omeIet must be cooked quickly
and in a large pan. Do not mix
flour or milk in il under any cir
cumstances. 1t may be economical,
out K makes II heavy. and thus made
has one of the qualities Of the omelet
in the land of its invention. Use
eggs only.
Beat the eggs well, yellow and
white together. Put two tablespoons
OF butter in a frying pan for six
eggs. When il is quite hot, put in
the beaten eggs with salt and pepper.
With a fork, bring 10 the center the
cooked part of the eggs from the
edge and, as soon as it is~all thick
ened. take hold Of the pan and turn
the omelet over on the dish and
serve. Turn over the edges while
the center is still soft, thus keeping
it juicy and tender. Beat the eggs
we'll. but not too much, as they
would become thin and watery after
a while.
"Omelet aux Fines Herbes-Beat
with the eggs some chopped parsley
and chives, and proceed as above.
"Omelet With All Sort Of Vege-
tables--Peas. asparagus tips, finely
cut up potatoes or mushrooms, all
previously cooked, can be added TO
an omelet. As soon as the eggs are
in the frying pan, add about half a
pint of cut-up vegetables to six
eggs. Arrange them carefully in the
center lengthwise. and finish the
omelet as above.
Eggs a rEspagnole-Chop very
fine two small cloves of garlic and
half a green pepper. Cut up, dice,
shape, two small tomatoes or very
large one. Put in a saucepan piece
OF butter the size Of an egg; when
melted. put in the tomatoes, garlic

them with powdered sugar, and line
with them the be lom and sides Of a

served apricots, alternating thin
