CRowNING AN IDEAL. By Anne
Publishing House.
A short, but truly moving tale
Of a boys lifelong devotion TO an
IDEAL 1t is not filled with reams
and reams of useless twaddle; 1t is
not burdened with endless words
and incidents hardly relative to
tho main theme: it sticks to one
story and concentrating on that
story, tells 1T simply, yet beautiful
ly: plainly, yet powerfully; sweetly.
yet sadly.
The story concerns one Paul Glib
son. As n boy he conceived an ideal
that OF being an army man. TO
him the army was the ultimate goal
of all ambition: he was determined
to be n soldier. The obscssion did
not leave him as he grew up. and
his parents. realizing the impossi-
bility of changing his determina-
ton, offered hardly an objection.
Devoting his every energy to fitting
himself for the life he has chosen.
Paul finds himself at the beginning
OF the world war eminently suited
to admirably perform the duties of
an officer in Americas forces. Then
come disappointm.nts after disap-
pointments. Paul is involved in an
endless tangle OF red tape and Of
fcial blunderings. Eventually, as
a private, after he has seen many
Of his friends olevared to officer
ships. although plainly less fitted
than he. Paul finds action in France.
The story moves to swift de-
nouement with Paurs glorious

main theme that is as beautiful as

the coming ordeal he entered the

"Well, SIR" said the salesman,
coming forward, "and what can l

The knight of the road pondered
a moment. then remarked:
Look ere. guv'nor. you say

Hints For The
Household

To clean a doorknocker, on
piece of strong brown paper draw
the shape of the knocker, then cut
it away from the paper as for
stencil design, Fix tho brown paper
round the knockcr when cleaning:
the result will be that the wood sur
rounding it will not be stained or
in any way injured by the polish.
Save all the used matches. empty
match boxes, ends of candles, and
bits of candle grease; they viii
help to set the fire alight If placed
among the kindling. Greasy plates,
dishes, tins and the frying-pan
should be rubbed with paper before
washing. and the papers will be
found excellent aids to fire-lightinG.
When making pastry the dripping
or butter should be rubbed into the
-four with the tips of the fingers,
not the palms of the hands. The
water should be added gradually
but quickly to prevent hard Jumps
from forming. a knife should be
used for mixing. The paste should
berolled forward and the rolling
pin lifted after each roll. Paste to
which baking powder has been add
ed should be placed in the oven as
quickly as possible. otherwise the
effect of the baking powder will be
wasted.
Turn a steak by passing a knife
under it, and never put a fork into
1t.
Salt in the oven under the baking
tins will prevent burning at the
bottom.
To clean paint, dip flannel into
powdered whiting and rub the
painted surface.
To clean rusty needles rub up and
down in soil for a few minutes.
This method rarely fails.
'Yellowed" handkerchiefs can be
made snow-white by soaking them
in pipe clay and water for twenty
four hours.
Meat loaf of chopped veal or beef
can be made moist If three or four
tablespoonfuls of cream arc added
Just before baking.
