BIG IMPORTANCE OF
OVEN THERM0 METER
Device Soon Pays for Itself in

Housewife After Hard Experience VIII
Learn to Judge Her Own Stove
Fairly WelI-RegIster Helps

The more baking you do the more
YOU realize the importance Of the oven
temperature. Have you not followed
recipe exactly for biscuits, perhaps
two days in succession, measuring ac-
curately and mixing the ingredients
in the same way? The first day they
were excellent-golden brown, light,
and a pleasure to serve. The next
day they were pale-faced, fiat only
fairly highland how you did hate to
put them on the table!
What Is the difference? The temper
ature of the oven. A woman after
many such experiences learns to judge
her own oven fairly accurately. But

kitchen to help out and bakes a pie
for the family. That pie almost ruins

penonulated Nebraska Town.

Forty years ago, just as the city Of
Lowell, Neb. which was then at the
end of the railroad and had 5000 in
habitants, was about to lose its impor-
tance because of the extension Of the
railroad a shOpkeeper had the poor
judgment to lay in complete stock
of goods. The stock is still there, for
the disgusted owner shut up the store
and has never since opened it for bust
ness. Lowell now is populated by
fewer than thirty persons.

Silk sweater-cOats and smOckS are
often finished with knOtted silk fringe
in bright cOlCrS with silk girdleS to
match. SILK braid is novelty used
in fringeS on crocheted sweaters
These are made in several styles, one
of the novel ones appearing in the
picture above Collars and cuffs of
angora make cOzy looking finish for
those with long sleeves. All these
pretty garments are either really
warm or suggest warmth, although
some of them are so lacey that 1t
takes the addition of angOra cloth to
hint a protection against chill.
The smock of heavy jersey cloth is
the most interesting rival of sweaters
and Sweater-cOats. 1t is usually en-
broidered with wool or has crocheted
flowers of wool yarn as decoration
and there is plenty Of room for thu
exercise of individual taste in its maB

How much time and thought do you
put on your children's lunch basket?
children have such appetites that
they will eat anything" is a remark
often heard. They may have good ap-
petites now, tut If school children are
allowed to eat the wrong things, the
time may come when they can't eat
the right things.
Growing children have certain spe-
clal needs in the way of food. Like
grown people, they must be supplied
with that which is necessary for
health and strength, but, unlike them
they should be given also that which
Is necessary for development.
Even one hot dish obtainable at
school at noon makes the lunch more
appetizing, and many schools are now
providing it When a child must carry
lunch and can not obtain at school
hot dish, the task Of filling the box or
basket demands great care to make
sure that it is appetizing, nourishing,
and sustaining.
One of the best investments to make
for a child who carries his lunch to a
school that does not serve hot lunch
is bottle which will keep liquids hot
or cold for some time. Cocoa, or soup
piping hot on a cold day, will make
a feast out of an otherwise uninterest-
ing lunch.
Five Groups of Food Needed.
In general, the school lunch, like the
child's diet as a whole, should contain
representatives of the five food groups.
In it should be found foods rich in
protein, such as milk, cheese, meats,
fish, dried beans, peas, peanuts, and
other nuts; cereal or starchy foods,
such as bread cereal mushes, rice and
tapioca; fatty foods such as butter,
cream. salad oils and bacon; Vegeta-
bles and fruits, but such as cereals

CRICKET FIGHTING
IN CHINA POPULAR.

San Francisco, March s.
Cricket fighting is 4 very popu-
lar sport in China. according to
L. s. marines who just return
ed here from Il tour of duty in
the Orient.
THE most celebrated cricket :
fights are those at Fa-ti. near
Canton" says one of these sea
soldiers. "A number OF sheds are
provided, made Of mating, and
are divided up into compart-
ments. Each compartment con-
tains a table with a vessel stand
ing on it in which the encounters
take place.
when cricket with a long
record of victories dies, its owner
puts it in a tiny coffin and bur-
les it, believing that funeral
honors will assure him good
luck in finding good fighting
crickets."
