Miss Margaret Brown, Principa Of the Famous Judson
Institute Visits Birmingham and Talks About Education

Il can't help feeling that the people
, Of Alabama today do not appreciate fully
what the Judson is. We are too timid
and too modest about our merits, and
even the Baptists of Alabama don't APP
urecfate what belong to them. Girls do
moi have to go away from the state to
receive a good education, for the Judson
is an A college, except in the matter
Of endowment AS far as work is con-
cerned, it ranks with the best in the
country. Our girls have certificates to
secure positions as teachers without any
trouble and are recognized as fine teach
Us They have a spirit-what we call
the Judson spirit, which other girls do
not have. People say they can tell a
sJudson girl as soon as they talk with
her, because of this fine spirit of whole
someness and happiness. Our chair OF
education makes it such that when a
girl graduates from the Judson she can
teach anywhere. And not only are our
girls good teachers, but they are good
workers in the Young Woman's Chris
tian association movement; also good
housekeepers, because the domestic
science department of our school is pro-
gresslve and up to date. And our girls
are good wives, too. l remark this be-
cause a gentleman said to me laughingly
when he spoke of a splendid young wife
who had been a Judson girl, L didn't
thought all your girls were teachers
And some of our Judson girls make good
old maids, too, so you see, we have a
most versatile and comprehensive cur
riculum'
For 20 years Miss Brown has given her
life her energy and her time to educa-
tior, and the Judson has been the ben
eficia1y of her splendid talent, which
has been recognized and appreciated
fully by all connected with the institu-
ton
l asked Miss Brown how she felt on
the suffrage question, and what position
the Judson held in regard to it. She
answered:
81 believe in suffrage, although I've
never said so. 1t is optional with our
girls whether they are suffragists or
not. We have noted suffrage lecturers
to appear before the school, but we've
never been active in the suffrage move
ment. Our Conversational club is a fed
Grated club. I don't know that that
has any bearing on suffrage, however,
but we are open to all modern move
ments and encourage everything of that
sort.
Finally, l should like to make some
mention of our music department, Miss
Brown said I believe the Judson is as
beautifully equipped unsteady as any
school in the United States, and 1t is an
acknowledged fact that our music pu
pills have secured exceptional positions
when they have left school and have
been successful in their careers every
where. We have all the noted artists
who come south-Nr. Damrosch, Mad
anne GadslI Maude Powell-everybody

best assets; but before she is an edu-
cator-and after-she is just a woman
wonderful woman-sweet, gentle, genu-
inc; tremendously broad and sympa-
thetic
And so-though I went the other day
to talk with a distinguished teacher
stayed to talk with charming, lovely
woman-just the sort that has made
our southland famous for its splendid
type of womanhood which stands for
all that is fine and loyal and big.
Miss Brown is of the old-fashionea

wonderfully progressive in her IDEAS and
when l asked her to let me use her
photograph in my story and let my
many readers know just how she looks
q always say that story without a
picture is like letter without stamp,
she laughingly told me that she couldn't
think of such thing; besides she
hadn't had a picture made IN years and
the only one that she could remember
was one taken long time ago, which
the Judson girls found and put in The
Annual this year, which. by the way,
was dedicated to her.
AS long as 1 haven't likeness of Miss
Brown to transcribe with this little
sketch, l shall have to make a pen pic
ture of her which I hope will convey
something of her personality; she is tall
and graceful, with the most wonderful
manner and smile and her cordially and
Kindness radiate from a nature whose
beautiful influence has been showered
upon hundreds of students at the ia

Miss Brown is native Mississppian
and graduate of the Judson, and with

in New York teaching, she has given
her life work to Alabama's splendid in

And right here L must tell you about
Uncle Abe " Miss Brown said. "He is

acters. He has been there for over half
a century as general utility man. In

him to perform some little task for me

box now flourish parsley, chives, thyme
sN Get marjoram and mint.
Usually, you know We Americans,
cooks and housewives, don't take the
trouble to order these succulent greens
and flavors. If the flavor doesn't come
in tin can that can be shaken conve-
| niently into a soup or stew, we con-
tent ourselves with salt or pepper, and
then wonder why it is that the pot-au-
feu tasted in the country inn in France
| that last season abroad before the war
| possessed an indescribaole something by
| way of flavor that American dishes so
| seldom did.
But with the wherewithal of this fla
vor within reach of the kitchen door
there is much more incentive to use
our home grown flavorings and gar
nishes to advantage. II
! It's amazing what some women have
been able to do with half a dozen plants
| of parsley. And, by the way the very
best foundation for your parsley bed is
the SCOT that is cleaned from the Chin
] neys, mixed with the soil in which the
parsley seed is grown.
! When using parsley with cooked dishes
| 1t Is best not to add it at the beginning
| of the cooking process. In steaws and
SOUPS it gives better flavor if added only
about quarter of an hour before serv-
| ing. Apparently, the aroma that gives
| the flavor boils away with too long
cooking When used with soups or stews
parsley should be cut up into extremely
| small pieces. When added as it is some-
times in stalks it has too much the ap-
| pearance of bits of seaweed washed
| ashore
| There is hardly a soup or meat dish
that is not improved by the addition of a
| little parsley.
! AS a garnish parsley is without peer,
especially when the leaves are in good
condition and are not dried out. Az
| though 1t should be served in fairly large
leaves for garnishing, any superfluous
stem should be cut away. The tiny
| fringed leaves should be dropped over
| the top of creamed potatoes-or any dish
oe potatoes, for that matter-iust before
serving. Large sprays should be dantily
laid at the side of cold meat, croouettes
or other meat dishes
Used with almost any kind of cheese.
