SOME GINGERBREAD RECIPES.
Ginger Cookies.

The word cookie" always sug
gests New England, yet as other
good things have come from this sec
ton, | know also that this small cake
recipe is good:
One egg.
One cupful sugar.
One cupful molasses.
One tablespoon soda.
One teaspoonful vinegar.
One tablespoonful vinegar
Flour to hold ingredients together
Break the egg in a pan and add
the other ingredients, roll very thin.
and bake quickly.
Soft Gingerbread.
There was probably one original
method of making this delectable,
toothsome, dark sweet bread, but
from the original recipe there has
been devised so many variations the
first recipe has been lost in obscur-
ity | fancy the recipe given here
comes nearer the original one than
many that we have all tried. : | know
that it is excellent.
One-half cup sugar.
One half-cup sweet milk.
One-half teaspoon soda dissolved
in one tablespoonful of water.
One teaspoonful of cinnamon.
One beaten egg.
One-half cup New Orleans molas-
ses.
One-half teaspoonful baking pow.
der.
One tablespoonful of ginger.
One and half cupfuls of flour.
Sift together all of the dry ingred-
tents into deep bowl. Add the mo-
lasses, the milk and the shortening.
Beat the egg and add that, 1t is not
well to beat cake batter very much
after the eggs have been added, as
his detracts from the lightness of
the batter; therefore, be sure you
have your batter well mixed before
the egg is added Bake slowly in
a deep cake pan. Serve with sauce
or in broken chunks. This kind of
cake is better broken than cut, as
the knife is apt to make it soggy
along the outer edge of the slice.
A Good Sauce For Gingerbread.
To one pint of boiling water add
one cupful white sugar and two ia
blespoonfuls brown sugar, pinch of
salt, one tablespoonful of butter, and
one scant tablespoonful of corn
starch dissolved in cold water. Boil
a half hour and season with any
flavor desired. If properly made
this sauce should be perfectly clear
and moderately thick, but not can
died. One tablespoonful of currant
or acid plum jelly dissolved in hot
water and added to this sauce just
before serving adds greatly to its de-
liciousness. This is practical
sauce that can be used for buildings
or any kind of cakes.

Rich Hog Creek Oil
 Field Has Millions

The Hog Creek oil field in north Comanche county and south Eastland county, Texas, has made such marvel ous progress in the way of develop ment that the value of the crude oil production daily is given at about $20O.000 a day or $6,O0O,OO0 month. It is in the heart of the field without railroad facilities but into which the Hamon & Kell railroad is to be built. Jakehamon, new town on the route of the proposed road, is two miles south of old 'Hogtown," the Inland village which was a camp of 10000 people In ''no time" as a result of oil development.

THE STUFF THAT SHRINKS
 THE SINEWS OF PATRIOTISM

Every soldier who barred his breast to a storm of lead and shrapnel; every mother and father who saw their boy march proudly away to meet the foe, sometimes not to return, and every loyal, patriotic citizen no doubt threw up his hat and shouted with joy when he read the order issued by Secretary of War Baker, former pacifst, releasing from Fort Leavenworth, 113 conscientious objectors,, remitting the unex- ecuted portions of their sentences, announcing their Honorable res toration to duty' and discharging them immediately from the army. It is such stuff as this that shrinks the sinews of patriotism and encourages and inspires the spirit of bolshevism in this or any other nation. A man who will not fight for his country in the hour of her need and causes others to offer their lives in the place of his, while he invokes the protection of her flag, has no place in that country, whatever his excuse for his attitude. The only conscience he has is the kind that makes towards of us all. J His place is on an island peopled solely by other paci6sts of his type or in prison where he can do no harm by his propaganda.
 And these anarchists are given Honorable restoration to duty" and discharged from the army while hundreds of thousands of our young men at home and abroad who without a murmur gave up their business and offered their lives to their country are kept in distant lands and camps although they are equally anxious for release, now that the war is over, and for their return home to families, friends and old occu- pations.

.rangell Sailor
 Boy Tells of the
 Great Northland
Ray Ready, Now In Honolulu, Gives Out
 Interesting Interview

A recent issue of the Star Bull letin of Honolulu contains a large cut of a Wrangell boy, Boatswain Ray Ready of the U. s. Steam ship Yukon.
 Ray Ready was raised in Wran- gell and has lived here practically all his life. During the year 1917 he was employed in the Sem tinel office. He was not afraid of work and a loyal employe. He is of such reticent disposi- tion that it is hard to imagine him talking for publication. But many an unassuming person has been interviewed without know ing it until he saw the published account. Ray is utterly lacking in imagination, and his language is simple, but he possesses most unusual descriptive powers. We doubt if Miss Crosno has a pupil in the school who could write a composition on Wrangell that would equal MT. Ready's descrip- tion of Southeastern Alaska. A portion of his interview follows: ESKIMO CHIEF ANXIOUS TO LOCATE
 IN HONOLULU
 The men of the seven seas beyond sail to Honolulu. They come from every where to the Paradise Isles" Here's one who comes from the tarthermost reaches of Alaska, and he likes the city so we'll that he in- tends to brlng with him his Indian. Alaskan wife and settle down.
 Raymond Ready is his name, and he halls from the Shamagin islands in the Aleutian islands group. As boatswain of the U. s. shipping board S. s. Yukon, he, like virtually every able bodied Alaskan, has given his service to the Government. He comes from the Hydah tribe ard his Eskimo name is White Eagle.
 The men of Alaska, of all creeds and colors, like those of Hawaii, would not for a moment tolerate a slacker,' he said yesterday. The Indian tribes whose men have lived on blubber fat and dried fish dur. ing the long winter months came down to Yukon eagerly to join in the fight for freedom.
 Ready has lived on blubber fat, although to see him, one would hardly think so. Only 21 years of age, he is broad shouldered, and his swarthy, strong face betokens a life of hard toll. When he was but 1o years of age, he was skipper of gasoline sloop which made for the Boring straits, the jumping off place of America.
 Describing the Indian customs. he told of the manner in which the dead are mummihed and placed on rafters in the smoke houses. ' Some of the superstitions still prevail" Ready said. Tt is a hard life."
 One of the problems the Far North has to face, he said, was the effort to make the boys and girls who go further down" to the schools in the states to retain their

of which I feel confident can be negotiated.
 My recommendation is that a survey be made in the summer season, passing over the route de- scribed, at which time definite in- formation may be obtained of the character of the soil, and the va rious natural obstacles that must be contended with. It is hardly necessary to say that a winter reconnaissance, except under the most favorable conditions, which apparently do not exist just now, is not to be thoroughly relied upon.

Ascend ing in a westerly direction on left limit of Hines creek, one side stream is crossed about three miles distant. At five miles, cross Hines, and following up north side of tributary creek. flat summit one half mile in width is reached at about seven miles from starting point, Elevation of this summit is 3025. Descending on east branch cf Savage Fork, main Savage Fork is reached about II miles from place of beginning, elevation at junction 2755. Crossing Savage Fork in same westerly direction saddle is reached between Savage and Middle river, al>ut r miles from starting poin1 at elevation of about 31OO feet. A descent of about 300 feet is then necessary to cross Middle river, which runs through open country, the river valley proper being about six miles in width at this place"
