SISTER MARY's
KITCHEN
(Copyrtsht, lg20. 81 =. "a.

Many housewives are replacing their
two sets of window curtains by using
easement cloth or natural pongee
draperies.
The white glass curtains and heavier
overdraperies were very attractive but
they certainly meant an extra amount
of work.
The easement curtains are just as
attractive and mean a minimum
amount of work. They eliminate wor.
ry about colors fading in oyerhangings
and all the somewhat fussy launder.
ing of the glass curtains.
Some decorators will not recommend
pongee for windows exposed to an I'M.
usual amount OF sun, contending that
the heat of sun through glass rots the
fabric. However judicious. manipu-
lation of shades and blinds makes this
fault negligible For laundering pur.
poses there is no fabric that stands up
as does pongee.
Menu for Tomorrow
Breakfast = Stewed dried peaches,
rice with top milk, toast, coffee.
Luncheon-Egg salad, brown bread
and butter, stuffed figs, tea.
Dinner-Lamb stew with dumplings,
boiled macaroni, stuffed cabbage, wa.
ter cress and orange salad, cream
puts, coffee.

Admiral Bayly came to meet the
Tanning as she sailed into Queenstown
with her unexpected cargo. lie went
on board the DESTROYER to congratulate
personally the officers and men upon
their achievement. He published TO
the assembled company u cablegram
just received from the Admiraltg in
London:
Express to commanding officers and
men of the United States ship Tanning
their Lordships' high appreciation of
their successful action against enemy
submarine"
I added a telegram of my own, end
ing UP the words, which seemed TO
amuse the officers and men: GO out
and do it again..
For this action the commanding Of
ficer of the Tanning, Lieutenant-C Com
mander Carpenter. was recommended
by the Admiralty for the D. S. o.
which was subsequently conferred up
on him by the King at buckingham
Palace.
Only one duty remained; the com
manding officer read the burial service
over the body of poor Franz Climber,
the German sailor who had beell
drowned in his attempt to swim to the
Tanning. The Fanning then steamed
out to sea with the body and buried
it with all the honors of war. A letter
subsequently written by Kapitan Am
berger to a friend in Germany summed
up his opinion to the situation in these
words:
The Americans were much nicer and

Our Base at Gibraltar.
So far as conveying merchant ships
was concerned Queenstown was the
largest American base; by the time the
movement of troops laid heavy burdens
on the American destroyers. Brest be-
came a headquarters almost equally
important. Brest would have been a
better base from a strategic stand
point, but we were prevented from
using it because that city lacked re-
pair facilities, docks, and particularly,
fuel storage equipment. AS rapidly as
possible fuel storage tanks were
brought from the United States, and
we remedied the repair situation by
sending repair ships. The Queens

troops to the French coast had tn
