They were unvaringly the same

Miss Jefferson Bell, social editor Of
the Miami Herald has the following
to say of beaten biscuits:
The following kitchen classic came
to the editor of this column with a
box of beaten biscuit, fresh and crisp
from the oven, brought by daughter
Of the old south after the fashion OF
other days, a neighborly courtesy
that was like breath Of home:

The old south has left behind 1t
one tangible memory of its days of
grace in the beaten biscuit They
are now more generally known rs
Maryland biscuit, but their ancient
lrealm was from Texas to the Atlantic
scaboard and from Mason's and Dix
l'on's Line to the Gulf. The crescen.
dos of the rolling pin, as some tur-
baned cook or nanny stood, goddess
of the biscuit block, made the music
of every kitchen in the south of those
old days.
The verse above may we'll be
named the idyl of that goddess who
reigned supreme in her own domain.
