gave her services to the army and

and so must have good food prepared
by good cooks, so she is ready to give

From Simonc's this avid pupil

Mrs. Wilson became expert in the

she contributed TO the happiness Of

Italy taught her many recipes
which added TO her growing stock
OF cookery assets. She served as

went to Germany.

Mrs. Wilson learned during her five
years stay in Germany. At old

university And these courses were

We worked seven days a week
and twelve months year before we
got our credits or before we could
pass our exams said Mrs. Wilson.
And all OF us women took six
months in the army cooking and six
months in navy cooking 1t was
this latter course that equipped Mrs.
Wilson SO thoroughly to teach our
own men how to cook for military
life. as, no doubt, it equipped Ger
man women for the same purpose in
their own country. And all this was
ten years ago.
Returning to her beloved Paris,
Mrs. Wilson was engaged by PhiIa-
delphia physician to return TO
America and become his dietitian.
This time in Paris Mrs Wilson
taught school in the Paris Academy,
where both men and women were her
pupils, all learning how to become
expert chefs. Her next work with
this physician, who was a diagnosti-
clan and directed a private sana-
forum, gave her experience in build
ing menus for persons suffering from
diseases.

Mrs Wilson has had an interest
ing and adventurous career in pur-
suing her art. She was born to the
inheritance of French creole cookery
in New Orleans. Her grcat-grand-
mother was famed far and wide for
her cooking. Once she made a plum

War Labor Board Fixes Nine

ACCEPTED BY COMPANY
Offer Made of Two Year Con.
tract and for Recognition
of the Union.

A threatened tieup OF the trolley lines
OF the Public Service Railway Company
or New Jersey was averted last night
by the full agreement OF Thomas N.
McCarter, president Of the company. to
meet the mems demands. Earlier in the
day he sent word to the union chiefs
that he would accept the supplementary
award OF Charlton ogburn, expert for
the War Labor Board. for a nine hour
day at the ten hour pay rate. and he
amplifed the announcement at a night
meeting OF the trolleymen in Newark
that he would sign a two year contract
to-day according full recognition to the
union.
The agreement. according to William
Wepner, State president Of the platform
mems union, carried with It virtual ac-
ceptance of the closed shop principle.
Wages on the new schedule will be COM
puted from May 1. and az rapidly as
possible the trolley. runs will be ad-
justed to make so per cent. of them
operate in nine hour shifts The wage
Increases directed by the War Labor
Boards decision will cost the company
! $4,000. Mr.. wepner said.
In effect the award grants the men
rate of so cents an hour for a normal
nine hour work day, as against the 40
cent rate they are now paid. Should
their run take them more than nine
hours they will receive 80 cents an hour
for the extra time, but for all over
time not on the regular schedules they
will be paid time and a half. The mems
| demand that all runs be of consecutive
hours instead OF one with gaps was
denied but Mr.. Ogburn recommended
that the company put on more straight
| runs. Mr.. Ogburn's ruling was made
| subject to approval Of William II. TAFT
! and Basil NJ. Hanly, Joint chairmen OF
| the board, but II Is expected they will
| act favorably on 1t.
The trolley men had submitted de-
mands on Tuesday to Mr.. McCarter for
q straight eight hour day and an increase
| to IS cents an hour. His reply was due
yesterday and the men were to vote on
| II at nine simultaneous meetings In DIFF
ferent parts OF the State last night. The
| supplemental award, however, precluded
Mr.. McCarter's answer. The meetings
were held and the award was submitted
to the men. Their decision will not be
made known until to-day. when all nine
locals report to State headquarters in

| The strike Is averted," was Mr.. WEEP
ner's comment when he learned Of the
award. The supplementary award will
be placed before the men ut Tonight

that they will reject It. II establishes
