When Mr.. Hanna decided to go to
the army work the trustees secured
the services of Miss Irene Dillard
who had been teaching music in the
school. to take up the work of the
Superintendent and finish out the
wear. She is highly educated, has eX-
perieence as teacher, is tactful and
diplomatic and knows how to do
things. The pity is that the trustees
can not retain her services. But she
is going to take a postgraduate
course in a university in New York
and had just been resting at her
home in Clinton when she was in
duced about the first of the year to
go ever to Whitmire and take up the
music work for the school and later
the superintendency. To be perfectly
frank I dc not know that ever met
any one who in so short time i'm
pressed me so favorably with her
ability to handle the school in an ef-
fcient and capable manner as did
Miss billiard, if she will pardon me
for saying it.. And she had good and
competent assistants I understand
that Mr.. Wright is to succeed in the
work at Whitmire.

HAMMER IN REPAIRING AUTO
Care In Use of Tool Is One of First
Things Amateur Should Learn
In Fixing Engine.

Care in the use of the machlnists
hammer, which forms a part of the
tool equipment of every automobile, is
one of the first things the amateur
automobile repair man must learn
when working around the engine, says
writer in the current issue of Amer
lean Motorist. With this hammer he
can do more damage in a moment
than good man can repair in a week.
His first inclination is to use this form
of persuasion on any and every re-
fractory part, and this is a desire
which should be overcome.
Not only should the hammer itself
not be used on any metal parts with
out the intervention of a block of
wood to protect the surface. but care
must be exercised to avoid hitting the
other parts through the inaceuracy of
aim that distinguishes the unskilled
wielder of this tool.
A poorly aimed blow that misses its
target and lands on one of the valve
push rods or similarly vulnerable parts
with any degree of force is apt to cause
trouble of an expensive nature.
It Is a good thing for the novice to
be sparing In the use Of his hammer as
a cure-all.

WOMEN DRIVERS
FEAR TOO MUCH
Fair Motorist Expresses Opinion
That They Lack Confidence
in Themselves.
DRIVING IS STATE OF MIND
Many Know What to Do Under Prac-
ticalIy All Conditions and Still
Fail to Do lt-Best Nerve
Tonic in the World.

i AS has been said about worry
namely, that most Of ones troubles
never happen-so the fear that wom-
an has in driving a car is not so much
that as it is the fear of being afraid.
At least that is the opinion Of a we'll
known woman motorist.
"From my own experience and the
experience of other women to whom
have talked about the subject, be-
lieye the most difficult thing a woman
has to overcome in learning to drive
car is not to be afraid of being
afraid says this expert woman driver.
probably this sounds little compli-
Gated, and an easier way to say 1t
would be that women as whole, be-
lieve, lack confidence in themselves to
handle the unexpected, should the I'M
expected occur.
Easy to Handle Car.
"a lot has been said about driving.
Much advice has been offered as to
what to do and what not to do. 1 be-
lieve that good driving is simply a
state of mind and that as soon as any
one discovers how easy it is TO handle
a car and how near an impossibility
1t Is for an emergency to arise that
cannot be met with little effort, when
the simple mechanism of the modern
car is mastered, she has learned about
all there is to know In order to drive
a car.
"Of course one might know what
to do under practically all conditions,
and still not do it. Here is where lots
of women fail as good drivers; their
fear of doing the wrong thing is so
great that they do nothing at all.
Material Benefits.
II have yet to see any woman who
has not been materially benefited by
driving. The fresh air, the co-ordina-
ton of eye, mind and muscle, the ex-
hilaration of feeling that you are mas
ter Of the powerful and yet tractable
motor, and that it will answer your
every within, cannot help but have a
beneficial effect on the nerves. In
fact, l firmly believe that driving is
the best nerve tonic in the world.
II have driven my car over thou
sands of miles of all kinds of roads :
boulevards, deserts and mountains.
The fact that have never had an ac-
cident of any kind adds lot to the
sum total of my pleasure, of course,
but I know that even had I expert
enced q lot of trouble / would not
sacrifice for a great deal the actual
gain in health and the joy of driving
that have experienced in my car"

Jelly or jam in the center, served with

Cauliflower With Cheese Sauce
Caulifiower should be broken in bits
and allowed to stand half-hour in
cold water with one tablespoonful of
vinegar added. Cook in boiling, salt
ed water until tender. Serve with the
following cheese sauce: Melt two la
blespoonfuls of butter substitute in a
saucepan, add two tablespoonful Of
corn flour, and cook until the mixture
bubbles; then add cupful of cold
milk. Cook until all the starchy fla
vor is removed, then add one cupful
Of grated cheese, one-half teaspoonful
of salt and few grains of paprika.
Butter a baking dish and arrange the
cauliflower and cheese sauce in layers
until all is used. Sprinkle with we'll
buttered crumbs and bake until the
crumbs are q golden brown.
A cupful of any kind of good-ha-
vored cheese added to white sauce
to serve over toast makes a most
nourishing dish. Cheese should never
be overlooked, as it then becomes
tough and stringy. A cheese to be
used In cookery should be rich enough
to melt easily. Dreamed potatoes and
cottage cheese may be prepared in the
same way, substituting the cooked POI
tatOes for the cauliflower and adding
little parsley or pimentos for fla
vor.
Potato Scones.-Cook one cupful of
cornmeal in two cupfuls of boiling wa
ter until smooth; add one cupful Of
mashed potato, two tablespoonful Of
shortening, tablespoonful of salt, q
cupful of barley flour, three teaspoon
fuls of baking powder and a we'll
