For Slim Dinners.

Slim dinners sometimes occur in
the best regulated household, but
with little forethought o nthe part
of the housewife they may be ex-
banded to adequate proportions with
a minimum of trouble and expense.
A satisfying soup, an appetizing bit
of salad an da hearty pudding make
it seem quite ample.
The so-called garnishes are not
for looks, but make the soup a sat
isfying part of the meal and so less
en- the expense of the meat course
or eliminate it entirely, and include
the various kinds of dumplings
forcements, balls, jellied meat, fish
or vegetables, cut in squares; toasted
or friend bread squares, poached puffs
or different kinds, poached eggs,
sliced hard boiled eggs, macaroni
pastes, cereals, spinach balls, vege-
tables and filled grapeleaf packets.

MAYOR TO PUSH
BIG CITY PROJECTS.
Pleased With General Election
Results--Predicts G. o. p.
Will Handle Problems
POLICE KEPT ORDER HERE

A quick return to deep attention to
important business problems, now that
the tension Of n presidential election IL
over. was predicted today by Mayor
Moore, who expressed satisfaction with
the general result Of the voting.
Great projects as planned for the
city will not be delayed--a constructive
program is the one in which he Is in
tcrcsted, he said.
The statement Of the Mayor followed
the holding of conference with Di-
rector Of Public Works Caven, In which
such important projects as construction
Of the sewage disposal plant, tho Fair
mount Park dam project, and the street
cleaning and garbage collection pro -
grams for 1921 were discussed.
1T has been proven" said the
Mayor. that Philadelphia can hold Il
peaceful and orderly election, and that
thugghry and violence can be sup
pressed. The police were instructed to
see that the people who had the right
to vote could do so without fear, favor
or factionalism.
Complaints that have been submit
ted to me by the Department of Public
Safety have been very few, and generally
were of trif!ng 1pture. The terrorism
heretofore prevailing in certain wards
was eliminated entirely. This shows
what the police can do when they work
under orders from headquarters, and
not from political bosses.
1.-THE people yesterday had a fair
chance to express their will at the polls
as they always should have in the pa :
triotic old city of Philadelphia.
Great Responsibility On g. o. T.
After expressing his satisfaction over
the outcome as it relates to the PreSi :
dency, Mayor Moore continued:
"Great responsibility will rest upon
the Republicans. especially with regard
to expectation Of the people In the mat
ter of reduction Of taxes. The bill has
been piled SO terribly high during the
Wilson administration that IL seems
doubtful il immediate relief can be pro
vided in this respect.
"a change Of administration will un
doubtedly help to restore the confidence
of the people, and enable the incoming
commissions and other forms of eXtrav-
agance which have helped to keep this
country on war basis, notwithstanding
with Germany for year or longer"
Constructive Business Needed
Necessity Of consideration of pro
tective tariff was commented on by the
Mayor, but the keynote of his after
election statement emphasized the neeC
of getting down to purely business
basis, on strict constructive lines, moi
only in the city, but in the entire coun'
try"

Bank Examiner Riley. who is in
vestigating the affairs Of the bank. said
that he found everything all right.
Banking Commissioner Fisher. it is
said, recommended that the officials
pay out only $50 on all saving accounts
and require depositors TO give the legal
two weeks notice to obtain the re-
mainder.
This recommendation is being fol-
lowed, although it is specified in the
books of dcpositors that two weeks
notice is required to withdraw any
