SUGGESTIONS FOR SERVING
CHRISTMAS DINNER

Appetizer: Place the shrimp cock
tail and fill the water glasses before
the guests are asked into the dining
room.
Salad: Place the salad before the
guests are seated at the table.
Soup: To simplify service bring the
soup to the table in a tureen. Place
the hot soup bowls and tureen before
the head of the family who will dish
the soup and pass it. A tea wagon is
quite indispensable in serving without
a maid.
Main Dish: Remove the soup dishes
and place the baked ham and hot
plates before the head Of the family
| who will carve and serve the ham and
will then pass the plate to the daugh-
ter or son, or perhaps the handy
guest at the left, for the vegetables
Dessert: Pile the dishes from the
main course on the tea wagon. Place
the pie which has been covered on a
side table. The hostess will serve
the coffee.
Note: By careful planning every
thing in the kitchen can be arranged
before the Christmas dinner begins
foods dished and placed in the warm.
or or in a very moderate oven. The
happiness of each guest depends
largely upon having the hostess at the
table from the very beginning of the
meal. Everyone will be glad to heir
and make the serving as light as pos
sible.
A basket piled high with fruit and
nuts may be made into most attrac-
tive centerpiece by twining sprays Of
holly or other red berries around the
basket and over the handle, and tying
with bow of red ribbon.
Lighted red candles, without shades
in the old fashioned candlesticks Al
each end of the table will lend warmth
and cheer. Place cards with Christ.
mas wish and the name of each mem.
Der Of the Christmas party will b
long kept as souvenir of the holiday
Above all, let us not forget prepa.
rations. Personal worries are SCI
aside in a general feeling of good
wishes and Christmas cheer.

State ReformatOry
(By Thorn.)

ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS
That DR.. Klock was wound up
When he recited conditions
That he found at Mariana
Regarding the state reform school
r Has been mighty we'll proved;
And I'm here to tell you
That had reports from abroad
Regarding the cruelties
Practiced upon the Americans
Who were incarcerated therein,
Thereon and hereunder
In their numerous "reformatories,
Been nearly as nauseating
AS those coming from Mariana,
The entire press of this country
Would have thrown big scareheads
And had many sorts of fits,
And our men would have fought
With renewed vigor for vengeance,
But right here in Florida
We merely fused little bit
And then took the usual plan
or appointing a committee
To investigate all the assertions.
That's a way that we have
To shift all the responsibility
Upon a group of men
Who can't help taking the jo0.
But the committee upheld Klock
And styled him as alarm klock,"
Notwithstanding numerous reports
That had been previously told
Regarding his certain unreliability.
The institution at Mariana
Is termed an industrial" shebang,
But it strikes me strongly
That the main industry developed
Was seeing how much filth
Could be put into one building,
And how badly the many inmates
Could be handicapped by vermin,
And how long they could continue
To exist on short grub
And going without sufficient clothes
For the committee made report
That wasn't very complimentary
To the folks in charge of it.
The entire report of that body
Could be put in one word:
"ROTTEN!"
Amt that an awful shame?
To think that nice buildings
Should be erected by the state
To help reform" growing boys,
and then have then miserably used
The state should begin at once
To reform some of the men,
ana tnOse placed IN high office,
Before it tackles the boys.
You can't make a boy decent
BY keeping him half-starved
Or by sleeping him in quarters
Unfit for registered swine;
Yet that is what was being done
At that Mariana institution
II the committees report
That backed the eight-day Klock
Is to be depended upon.
And have a strong bunch
That the time by the Klock
Was made standard at Mariana.
And that all conditions there
Should be promptly bettered.
Yassum.
l thank you.

Red Letter Day


Truly Sunday, February 3rd, was
red letter day for Trinity Lutheran
Church. The good weather brought
out large crowds to hear and see the
beautiful new $4,000 pipe organ
which the Lutheran people set apart
for the service of God. The deica-
tory service at 11:00 a. m, was in
teresting, instructive and worship
full. The relation of the organ and
music generally, to the service of the
sanctuary was fttingly explained.
1t is the purpose of the Lutheran
choral society to uphold the highest
standards of devotional music and to
make the church service IN the best
sense helpful to all who worship
there The pastor read the names Of
all contributors to the organ fund
also said that many sent IN their sub
scription before he had a chance to
canvass them
At four Q. m, recital was given
by Prof. Roberts and Prof. and Mrs.
Malloy. It was feast for the music
lover The selections showed the
variety and beautiful tone qualities
OF the new organ Prof Roberts work
was much appreciated. Prof. NAL

usual ability We are always glad
to hear these artists.

SCIENCE IN RAISING POULTRY
How Many Eggs Each Hen Lays-
Hens Make Best Mothers.

The time has come when more at
tention must be given to high produc-
ton in the farm flock. 1t is not enough
that the poultry fanciers breed up
their layers and attempt to increase
the strain. Farmers should breed up
their own fiocks.
We should know what the hens pro.
duce and let their stay on the farm
depend upon what they pay. This Is
the only business way to look at poul-
try raising.
Trap nesting Is the fancier's way. It
is good way, but other ways may be
devised to keep records of the hens.
The important problem is to find out
how many eggs each hen lays and
when she lays them.
Summer layers are not near as i'm
portant as early spring and winter
layers, for winter eggs always bring
better prices, so do early spring eggs.
1t follows from this that hen that
lays in winter, though she produces
fewer eggs, may be more profitable
than summer layer.
But authorities tell us not to keep
hens till they are very old. They say
the second season Is generally the best
for laying hen. But there is need Of
more records on this subject. Anyway,
hens make better mothers when old
than when pullets.

CULLS SHOULD BE FATTENED
When Undesirable Fowls Reach Proper
Size They Should Be Placed In
Pen and Fed Corn.

AS soon as the culls have reached
proper size they should be fattened.
Place them in pen to themselves and
feed them food that contains a large
per cent of carbohydrates, such as
corn, or its milling products. During
the process of fattening do not give
them any green food at all.

THE WAR SITUATION

The war situation has shown little
change during the past month. The
Italian front has been reinforced by
British and French troops, and al
though the German and Austrian ar
rlies have gained souse ground the
advantage seems not to be significant.
On the western fronk no extended eff
fort has been made hy either side, but
the Germans are understood to have
strengthened their forces from the
Russian front and it has been assum-
ed that they are getting ready for a
supreme attempt to break through. In
Asia Minor the British troops have
driven the Turks out of Jerusalem.
Negotiations for peace have continued
between the BoEshevili party in Rus
sis. and the German authorities and
are still pending. On the face of the
declarations exchanged by these par
ties, favorable to peace without annex
atoms or indemnities, they would seem
to be not an impossible distance from
the conditions laid down by the Prime
Minister Of England in a recent
speech. The latter called for the res
toration of territory conquered by
German arms, PREPARATION for damage
done, and proposed that the DISPOSE
ton OF the German colonies and of the
territory within the war zone in Asia
be determined by the Peace Congress,
with the exception of Palestine and
Armenia, which the Prime Minister
said would not be returned to the
Turk. These are definite terms, and
go far enough 10 show that the Al
lies are not bent upon the destruc-
ton of the German nation President
WILSON has made clear at every step
that this country has no selfish pur-
pose to serve 1t is demanding Meth
er territory nor indemnity. The es-
sential purposes with it are to vindi-
cate the rights Of its citizens undea
long recognized principles of public
right IN the life of the world, and to
restore peace upon a Just and per
manent basis With the Allies tht
chief consideration undoubtedly is tt
secure guarantees that the world shall
be made safe In the future from the
aggressive policies of the German
military autocracy.
