the peoples employment, but the Lyme people have, nevertheless, de- voted MT. Garfeld's solemn holiday to the purposes of as general wood chop ping. The men of the town shoulder their axes, march up on Meeting House Hill, cut down trees which can. easily be spared out of the splendid woods there, and work up the wood for their own supply. relieving the Lyme pressure on the coal supply ai- l most altogether. Many hands make light work The problem is solved = probably more than solvedHin one days communal chepping . week. Why is not this an excellent example for every town in New England, in-
 cluding Boston?
 l Yet Old Lyme has one decided ad- i vantage over Boston in the respect 1 that the town could easily cut all the 1 fuel it needs up on Meeting House Hill
 without doing the woods there any injury. It would cause terrible havoc here even to attempt to supply a hundredth part of the fuel deficiency from Bosron's public woods. Hundreds of cords could be cut here, however, without lessening the real value of the woods. We have already cut enough to keep several families going
 a long time merely by removing from
 the Old Granary burying ground the
 trees that are dead or drying. = The

USEFUL KNOWLEDGE.

Dear Social Corner Writers:
 Rye mush may be cooked in boiling salted water like any other cereal.
 Mating that is soiled and does not respond to washing can be painted over with a coat or two of paint and look as good as new.
 Lumpy batter is sore trial to the housekeeper, but if she will mix the salt with the flour before wetting' the latter, it will often prevent the Jumps from forming.
 Pecan nuts. as everybody knows, are not easy to crack so as to keep the meats even partially whole, but if boiling water is poured over the nuts and allowed to cover them for about twenty minutes or so you will find that the meats will not crumble and will come out in quite large pieces.
 Beets, if they are red, add an at tractive touch of color to the table but if they have accidentally lost their color they are not pleasing to the eye In such an event, the beets may be made a brilliant red again if a little red fruit coloring is added to the vine- gar.
 A great many persons do not bother to sift the furnace ashse. Try it and wash the cinders. whita pieces and all They will all burn up again. and ii the fire is banked wits them there will be nice hot fire ;nithe morning The kitchen range candhfs should bs Kept separate from the others By putting, coal on first then ciaders, yor can have plenty O. heat ;a the aar,s l morning, when one nae5s it most, and 1t Is quite a saving, as ycu do moi have to use as much coel when using cinders. .:.

WAR SOUPS

Dear Social Corner Sisters: The high price of meats makes vegetable soups a necessity. The following may prove useful to some of your readers:
 Cabbage Soup: Wash a fine cab rbage not too lange. Cut the leaves into fine shreds. Boil them until tender in a quart of water and in a quart of broth in which was boiled mutton or
 pork; season with pepper' and salt; just before serving stir in an ounce of
 fresh butter and two Jumps of sugar
 The cabbage should be in sufficient
 quantity to make the soup thick. MiIk-VegetahIe Soup: Two and one-
 half tablespoons four, one quart skim
 milk, two tablespoons butter substi ute, two cups cooked vegetable, one teaspoon salt. Stir flour into fat and
 mix with the cold milk. Add the cook ed vegetable and stir over the fire un- til thickened. If soup is too thick, add g. little water or milk. The vegetable should be finely chopped. mashed or put through sieve. Spinach, peas beans, potatoes, celery or asparagus
 make good soups.
 Duchess Soupa One-half onion, tive tablespoons flour, three -fourths cup oi grated cheese, two tablespoons fat three cups milk, salt and pepper. Cook an onion in the fat until tender, but
 not brown Add the flour, then the milk gradually. Cook until smooth add seasoning to taste. When ready to serve, put one tablespoon of the grated cheese in each plate and pour HANNAH WHO.

Dear Social Cornerites: Since cream of tartar and moIasses have. risen so very much in price. come to you to help me out.
 . Can anyone suggest how to sour milk rapidly so I can use soda for baking purposes? These cold days the milk becomes old but does not sour, and you have so many fine sour milk and soda recipes. This will help some of out on the cost ef living.
 Have been much interested in The Little Spin ster's last. letter. Let me supplement it by reminding you of the answer Jesus gave to the penitent tor friend CT His) on the cross: Today shalt thou be with Me in Paradise . Why question about the hereafter then. dear ones? After death-what ''W;th Me in Paradise" Is the answe, for any friend of Jesus. "No mar conaath unto the Father but by Me- He says to His friends.

 don't get nervous, we can go home
 when we can't go anywhere else; and soon our machine was headed towards home. .1
 After riding while longer we came to the Taftville crossing, when, 10! we suffered a blowout.
 I knew this meant another delay, for had already begun to wish my self at home. It did seem to me waited quite long time for repairs and again we started towards home when something happened which caused us to have to go to Norwich on flat tire; and our driver said Well, doesn't this beat all.
