He had rented an automobile and

THE WOMEN,

The victory is at last We congratulate the
women. In few years we will wonder why there
was ever a difference of opinion on the subject.
But rights bring duties II brings the duties to
all whether they asked for the rights or
merely had them thrust upon them.
To leave all the bad women to exercise the fran
chise while host of good women refrain. means
worse conditions instead of better.
Most women have keener moral perceptions than
the average The morals of politics will be
vastly improved by their accession. st
The Journal is especially elated over the event.
1t pitches serious battles except upon questions
which are at bottom. moral issues. 1t expects great
help from the women in restoring popular and de-
cent government in New Mexico. The women will
aid in the fight for all right things.

YOUR SATURDAYS BAKING.

Last week I dealt with the ques-
ton of Wednesdays baking for q
woman with six in family, arguing
that the housekeeper should use
her oven to the utmost when she
uses it at all, and on Wednesday
morning should bake desserts for
all the days up to Saturday-in-
stead of using extra gas or cleo
tricity Cor increasing the heat of
coal range, which is often neces-
sary) on separate days to prepare
puddings or other desserts for i'm
mediate use. This Offensive" bak-
ing should also be practiced on
Saturday morning, when luncheon
and dinner desserts for saturday,
Sunday, Monday and Tuesday
should be baked in advance. some
such plan as the following might
be followed for instance:
Ginger cookies for Saturday
luncheon (serving the remainder
of the batch" at luncheon on Mon
day and Tuesday,; fruit pudding
for Saturday dinner; raisin pie for
Sunday noon dinter: sour milk
chocolate cake for Sunday night
tea; tarts for dinner on Monday:
and the leftover slices of the sour
milk chocolate cake served with
hot lemon sauce for dinner on
Tuesday. These things can easily
be baked between the hours of 3
and ~ on a Saturday morning, in
addition to six loaVes of bread
(Which the housekeeper has set to
rise the night before) if one pro-
ceeds as follows
At 7 o'clock in the morning the
risen bread should be put into pans
to rise again (they will he ready
to bake somewhere around 10:30D
and the oven should be gotten hot
so that at 8 o'clock it will be ready
to receive those things which re-
quire greater heat than the bread.
The cookies, pie and tarts should
be baked first. then the chocolate
loaf cake and the fruit pudding:
the bread will come last.
A fruit pie such as raisin pie Ca

on the raisin box) is always an
economical thing to serve for it

milk is utilized in the delicious
chocolate loaf cake, for which the
recipe is given below. And the en-
tire batch of about forty-five GIN
ger cookies which furnishes a des-
sert for three lunches, contains but
one egg (the recipe for these will
appear tomorrow as well as recipes
for tarts and fruit pudding).
Sour Milk. Chocolate Loaf Cake.
Two cups brown sugar, table,
spoons butter, . squares unsweet-
ened chocolate, 1-2 cup boiling

ANNEXING THE ARMY.

Ell Paso worried the census sharps at Washington
into reohecking the count of heads in that busting
annex to New Mexico because the total ran up TO
about only little over 10000. The comptometers
again put to work and made the discovery that
the loyal enumerators had counted in the 1000 SOL
diers and residents at Fort Bliss, four miles out and
not within the municipality Cheating never pays.
Albuquerque gave honest to goodness state
ment instead of ringing in 10000 residents few
hundred yards outside the municipal lines.

Monday, August 30, 1920.


This is a day of conflicting forces.
There seems to be a sign point
Ing to criticism of women, owing
to misunderstanding of their mo-
tives. The accusation of deceit
and double dealing is likely to be
made while this configuration pre-
walls.
The rule is most promising for
meetings of social nature, since
it Is supposed to stimulate the
lighter, happier thoughts of men
and women.
Love affairs are subject to most
promising sway which seems to in
dictate consistency and great happi-
ness.
This should be wedding day in
which prosperity is joined with
romance that endures.
The aged and those past youth
are likely to be critical of women
who are endowed with beauty and
charm.
A royal wedding is foreshadowed
for Great Britain. This may make
memorable page in history.
An extraordinary number of pc
culiar legal cases is indicated by
the planets. These will be tried in
the civil as well as the criminal
courts.
The death of man prominent
in campaign work is indicated to
take place under dramatic circum-
stances.

IN the Plumb plan OF railroad
management.
Mr. Howe is well versed in the

Clarence c. Dill, United States
congressman from Ohio, was origin

Living Cost in Balance.
Claim is made by the railroad
brotherhoods and other labor or
Plantations that it would be folly
10 turn the railroads back to their
private owners at this time. 1t is
contended that the government was
forced to take over the roads dur
ing the war to insure that passen-
ger and freight facilities would be
kept up to the standard. The labor
groups contend that to return the
roads to their owners now would
mean an alleged return to ineffi-
Gent management. which would
bring about increases in freight
rates, which in turn would give
another boost to the high cost of
living.
