WHAT MIR. HARDING is MISSING.

Here a few sentences cued from Asso-
ciated Press dispatch describing President-elect
Hardng's trip to Panama:
Except for the light rain and moderate wind,
fair weather favored the senator. In the
afternoon, real tropical heat encountered"
Senator Harding is supposed to be on his vaca-
ton trip He ought to get the best weather avail
able.
This being the case he is missing something by
not having come to New Mexico for his vacation.
What better vacation weather could any de-
sire than yesterdays mild clear sunshny atmos-
phere?
Yet next president is sweltering away his
leisure in the tropics This is because New Mexico
is not as we'll advertised as Panama.

RAISIN RECIPES FOR TIE DIN
NIIR PAIL.

| Last Saturday | wrote an article
! on the value of the raisin from the
standpoint Of nutrition, and today |
am going to give a few recipes for
| foods containing raiS;ns which are
particularly well adapted to put in
! the carried lunch.
The woman who fills a lunch
basket, box or pail SHOULD be ia
milar with the various kinds of
| bread 80 that she need not always
| put in the same kind. Sweetened
| breads, breads containing raisins
or nuts, ana the various kinds of
roll or muffin are all appreciated
| by the man or woman who opens
Il carried lunch at nOontime. Such
| variety as this helps to keep up
ones appetite-and person with
a good appetite is generally a well
person. The following recipes are
satistylngly nourishing to person
! at hard work:
| Raisln Coffee Cake: Cream to-
gether IA cup Of butter or lard and
"a of cup of graduated sugar.
Add | egg which has been well
| beaten, IL cup Of milk, IA tea
spoon salt. and | "a cups of white
flour which have been sifted with
| , level teaspoons of baking pow
| der. Mix well, then spread in a
rather deep round pan about eight
| inches in diameter and well but
| tered; sprinkle with l-2 cup seed
less rasins, finely chopped, then
| sprinkle with L. cup of granulat-
/ cd gg1tg oil Ia
cinnamon. Dot with / tablespoon
of butter put on in tiny pieces with
u teaspoon and bake from 25 to 40
minutes in a moderate oven. This
| is as delicious cold as hot. 1t re-
quires no butter in serving and is
rich and nourishing.
RaiSin Gingerbread: 2 cups
flour, l-2 teaspoon soda, ! 1-2 tea
spoons ginger, 1-2 teaspoon salt,
cup raisins (not choppeO, "a cup
molasses, IL cup boiling water,
| tablespoons melted butter. Mix and
sift the flour, soda, ginger and salt;
Eadd the raisins. Stir the molasses
and the boiling water together and
add these to the dry ingredients.
Now add the melted butter and
beat well. Pour into creased
bread tin and bake for forty min
utes in n moderate oven. (This Is
fine recipe to use when one has
no milk and eggs to spare and yet
wishes to bake a delicious cake)
Raisin Graham Mullins: l cup
flour, / tablespoon sugar, tea
spoons baking powder, / teaspoon
salt, cup graham flour, IL cup
raisins, l cup milk. tablespoons
melted butter and / egg. Sift all
the dry ingredients together except
the graham flour. Add the raisins
and graham flour and then stir in
the milk, the egg (well beaten)
and the melted butter Pour this
into well-greased muffin tins and
| bake 35 minutes in a moderate
| oven.
Mrs ]. C:--Answer. There is
nothing.to be done Cor. your mirror
except having it re-silvered-and
that would cost quite good deal.

UNCLE WIGGILY AND MIR. COB
BILE GOBBLE.
(By Howard II. G

"You might put up Il little lunch
for me, Nurse Jane" said Uncle
Wiggily, as he started to hop away
from his hollow stump bungalow
one morning. "a few carrot sand
wiches and a slice or two of tur-
nip"
Dear me! / hope you aren't GO
ing to be gone very long" eXclaim-
ed Miss Fuzzy Wuzzy, the muskrat
lady housekeeper, sort of anxious
like. rYou know it is Thanksgiving
this week and I'm planning to have
q little extra dinner"
"Stay away from you at Thanks
giving? l guess mott" cried Uncle
Wiggily, making his pink nose
twinkle so fast that it looked like
puppy dog wagging his tail. I'm
be here! But just now / am going
to the woods to look for an adven-
ture and | thought i might meet
Reddy Tuft, the Red Squirrel. He's
always so hungry. | could take
him a nut sandwich"
GAS long as you aren't going to
be away over Thanksgiving, take
anything you like" said jolly Nurse
Jane. Here is some corn and if
you meet Reddy you might build
a fire and pop it. He may like
popcorn balls"
II think very likely he does,''
said Uncle Wiggily, with a smile.
Anyhow, I'll hop along and look
for an adventure"
So away he started, with his tall
silk black hat, his red vest and
his pink, twinkling nose, as well as
his red, white and blue striped
rheumatism cruth. In his pocket
the bunny rabbit gentleman put the
corn that Nurse Jane had given
him for Reddy Tuft, the Red SPUR
rel boy.
Along and along hoped Uncle
Wiggily, and he was just looking
around the corner of mulberry
bush, and thinking what a nice
Thanksgiving dinner Nurse Jane
would get for him on Thursday

when, all Of a sudden, a loud voice
cried:
"Gobble! Obblel Obble! Who
dares come where I am, wearing
red? Obble! Obble," and with that
a great big turkey gObbler came
strutting out from behind the sas-
safras tree, with his wings drag
ging on the ground, and the black
tassle on his neck webbing from
side to side while the red thing
hanging on his beak Topped up
and down.
ooh, my goodness me sakes
alive and some dishpan turnoversl"
cried Uncle WiRgily, getting ready
to run. whats all this?"
"Gobble Obble! Obble!" went
the turkey gentleman, putting out
his feathers. "Who dares to come
with red on into my field? I hate
red" and he glared at Uncle Wig
gily.
ooh, 7 beg your pardon, I'm
sure" spoke the bunny rabbit gen.
tleman. II forgot all about you not
liking red, Mr.. Gobble Obble. Wait,
I'll button my black coat over my
red vest"
Uncle Wiggily did this, but still
the turkey gentleman glared and
fluttered his wings.
"There's red on your crutch!'
cried Mr.. Gobble Obble, | can't
stand red any more than Mr.. Bull
can. Red makes me have the flop
doodles."
"Oh, I'm SO sorry!" spoke Uncle
Wiggily. "Wait. I'll cover up the
red in my rheumatism crutch!"
With some brown leaves that he
found on the ground the bunny
rabbit gentleman covered the red in
his crutch, winding the leaves
around the places the turkey gem
tleman didn't like. Then the
crutch of the bunny rabbit was
blue, white and brown.
THAT'S better" grunted Mr..
Gobble Obble, when he saw what
Uncle Wiggily had done. at is only
red that hurts my eyes. Now we
can be friends. ! don't suppose you

| would hurt Reddy Tuft. but it's
just as well for me not to meet
him, However, if you have some
corn l could eat that. Never mind
popping it,"
So Uncle Wiggily, being careful
rot to let any of his vest show,
took out the kernels of corn and
Mr.. Gobble Obble ate them up one
at a time, picking them from the
ground with his big beak.
"YOu are very kind to me, Uncle
Wiggily," said the Turkey gentle
man. Il hope you don't mind me
being so fussy about red"
"Oh, not at all! Not at an" an

his nose, and very glad that it was

"Wel, Nurse Jane and | like it,

Editor Morning Journal:
In reading over the account Of
last nights meeting of the city
commissioners appearing in the
Journal, | find what l consider an
unWarranted slur against those
property owners on West Tijeras
ave in whose name injunction pro-
ceedings have been brought against
the paving company and the COM
missioners. Thirty property own
ers are backing this suit, but they
want it understood that they are
not opposed to paving, but object
to paying what they consider an
extortionate price. They feel that
a charge Of $3.50 a square yard as
against sass. the former price, is
not justified by any advance in la
Dor or material, and that the pay
