7 THEATRE

els. Nan, beautiful and brainy, is
the leader of the gang, and through
the mutual fascination of Nan and
young Tom Palmer the intimacy of
the two families is soon establish
ed. The Brockton gang decides
that haste is imperative because Of
the rumored presence in the neigh
borhOod of a famous detective,
Ferris. A fake telegram calls the
Brocktons out of town and the
Palmers take the bait and invite
Ruth to stay with them during her
parents absence. At the Pal
mers, where Ruth has planned to
get the jewels as an inside job, she
learns that the gems are fakes and
that her hosts are also crooks,
themselves having planned to rob
the supposedly wealthy Brocktons.
Finally the two gangs recognize
the calling of the other and they
decide to form a joint syndicate.
They hold a meeting for the pur-
pose of arranging details, when the
police make a raid and all are ar
rested. Throughout the action of
the play there is much evidence Of
the universal fear of the famous
detective, Ferris, but in the end it
develops that Nan Carey, alias
Ruth Brockton, is herself the mys-
terious operative Love solves the
dilemma, for Nan has come to see
the possibilities for good in Tom,
and she gives him his liberty, along
with the others, after they have
signed statements to devote their
time in the future to running down
knavery instead of promoting it.

Use Apples Freely.

The only fresh fruit many families
in the North have duying the cold
months is the apple. Different ways
of utilizing this kitchen standby are
sure Of a welcome from the cook.
The department of agriculture sug-
gests the following ways Of serving the
apple:
Fresh apples may be stuffed with
sausage and then baked; sliced and
fried in fat to serve with meats. or
served raw in salads.
Canned. dried or stewed apples may
be varied greatly by changing the h
vors used.
Canned apples make a delicious ad-
diti0n to custards or soumes, AIDING
. piquant flavor.
Canned, dried Or fresh, they form an
acceptabae basis for Brown Betty made
with crumbs.
Fresh or canned, the fruit nay b
utilised In sAoet cakes, and In appso

supply will go and what kind Of dishes
she can prepare from them. To begin
with, she should remember that the
usefulness Of these foods is not de-
pendent on. the form in which they are
served, providing, of course, they are
prepared In wholesome ways. For ex.
ample, an egg used in the preparation
Of mullins, corn bread, custard or ice
cream goes as far toward making body
protein as when it is boiled or poached.
Most housekeepers serve central
dish of meat or meat substitute for
dinner and for luncheon or supper and
some serve such a dish for breakfast.
This habit has the advantage of assur-
ing regular. supply of the complete
protein foods, but it may lead to the
use of unnecessarily large amounts OF
them. A meal may be quite unusual
In form and yet perfectly nutritious.
It may consist of an unstrained meat
soup containing the meat itself. with
bread. or Of cottage cheese with bread,
butter. fruit, and vegetables. Or, IL
may seem to consist of dessert only,
as when strawberry shortcake with
milk as beverage constitutes sup
per or luncheon.
The total amount Of complete-protein
food decided on by the housekeeper as
desirable for her family may be served
chiefly in the form Of central meat
dish, or in the form of soups, vege-
table dishes, and desserts as the fol-
lowing list suggests:
Dishes Supplying compIets Protein.
Soups.
Meat soups with the meat left in,
