Civil Service Office Gets No
Word of Vacancy.

The civil service commission at Wash.
ington has not been notified that there
will be a vacancy in the indianapolis
postmastership, although the term OF
Postmaster Robert E. Springsteen ex-
pires July 81, according to a letter re-
ceived By William II. Trimpe, secretary
OF the local examining board Mr.
Trimpe's office will have charge of the
details of the examination of appI-
cants for the postmaster's Job.
The letter which Mr.. Trimpe received
is as follows:
You are advised that the Postoffice
Department has not yet notified this de-
partment of any vacancy in the position
of presidential postmaster at Indian
apolis. Whenever an examination be-
comes necessary for that position copies
of the announcement and application
supplies will be forwarded to you for
distribution, and every effort made to
give the examination the widest pub
ncity."
Since it requires several weeks to COM
plete the routine of civil service apphca-
tions and examination it is not thought
likely that Mr.. Springsteen's Republican
successor VIII be chosen Immediately
Edward ]. Robson and Robert H. Bry-
son are the principal candidates known
to be after the job.

Kitchen Hints
Tempting Menus

One of the cheapest cuts of beef Is
the flank steak. II this steak =
cooked carefully the tough hbers Of
the meat are softened and made
palatable. There is no waste by
bone or gristle and quite as much
nourishment as in the most expen-
sive cut.
Most butchers take their knife
and a flank steak before SELL
ing II to their customer. but this IS
easily done by the cook herself. BE
careful not to cut too deeply and do
not pound" the meat.
Make a paste OF one-half teaspoon
mustard, 1 teaspoon salt, : teaspoon
sugar and about 3 tablespoons vine
gar. Spread this paste over the
meat. Put the meat in a large fry
ing pan and with an onion
very thinly sliced. Pour u cup boil
ing water in one side of the pan ve~y
carefully. Do not let the water dis
turb the paste or onion. Cover close
ly and put in a slow oven for at
least an hour and a half. When
ready to serve, dot with butter and
sprinkle with minced parsley.
There will be absolutely no taste
Of vinegar or mustard. but the meat
will be very tender. The vinegar is
used to soften the tough hbers rather
than give flavor.
Another way to cook a flank steak
is to spread it with the same vinegar
paste, cover it with a bread stufing.
roll ii up and tie il. Then bake it in
a slow oven for the same length Of
time.
StufTing
One and one-half cups stale bread
crumbs, 2 tablespoons melted butter,
Il teaspoon pepper. l teaspoon salt,
hot water.
Mix salt and pepper with bread
crumbs. Add melted butter and mix
with a fork. Add hot water very
slowly. mixing with the hands. The
dressing should be just moist enough
to stick together but not moist
enough to be smooth and pasty.
Spread this on the meat and roll up
like a jelly roll. Bake in a moderate
oven for an hour and a half.
One-half cup diced carrots, y cup
diced potatoes, Ia cup diced celery.
Il cup diced turnip. 1 large onion.
Spread steak with the paste. Cut
in half or thirds TO fit the casserole.
Grease the casserole well with bacon
fat and put in one-third of the vege-
tables. keeping them in sections and
slicing the onion through them.
Then put in the meat and cover with
a layer of vegetables. Season each
layer of vegetables as they are put
into the casserole with salt and pep
per. Add the rest of the meat and
the vegetables. Pour over 1 cup hot
water. V closely and put in a
moderate oven for two hours. Serve
from the casserole.

BEAUTY HINTS

London and Paris have acquired a
new fad for their finger nails! Some
thing which puts on each a shine
that it almost never off.
Airplane dope, my dear!
Actually! It's the veneer used in
waterproofing the wings of the
planes and sometimes it's on brass
work.
But it's the latest thing for a
shine which rivals the sun and lasts
through countless w~ashings.
1t isn't expensive and is just the
right thing for the business girl who
can't spend hours a day taking care
of her person.. A little put on once
every two weeks or so after a thor
ough m~anicuring and then an occa-
soinal whisk with the buffer. and
her nails are looking as fit as if she
visited a professional every day.
A few minutes should be given to
care of your nails every day If you
hope to have really pretty nails. 1t
won't do to go to an expert once a
month and then neglect them the
other twenty-nine days.
Your hair you might neglect and
then have it beautifully done in the
course of a few hours. But not your
nails! Their beauty is a more nat
ural kind and the girl who spends
three minutes every day on them
will have nails which far surpass
those of the girl who visits the mani
curist nee every week and forgets
her nails for the other six days.

Editorials For
Women Folks

Every now and then there is a
furry of apprehension. Someone
says something to the effect that
woman are different NOWADAYS.
And someone else echoes it. Then
it goes back and forth gathering
momentum until it's a tremendous
how'll And m wonders If women
really are different with that
queer, question-mark implying into
nation.
Set out to discover the truth some
day. Ask your nearest neighbor
what life means to her, what the
biggest thing in it is. You'll find
she'll say pretty much the same as
your mother would have said, or
Jour grandmother-only she says it
with a little more force and convic-
ton. For she is that way today.
Read what these prominent wo-
men say:
Mrs. Gene Stratton Porter, Linn
Der Lost Cabin. Rome City. Ind:
The biggest thing that could posi-
bly, come into lives of some women
is public appearance and public ap-
plause. There are some women
who have reached the height of
their ambition when they have a
loNtlN lItAAtt ~ III
Jewels. There are some women
these days bitten with political am
billions and desire to held office.
But, thank God, there still re-
main old-fashioned women who APP
preciate the love of N man, a
home that they have evolved and
the mothering of little children.
Mrs. Charles III. Dietrich, Hast
ings, Neb., Bryn Mawr graduate and
first woman to serve on the Me-
braska State Library Commission:
My reply is what women always
have and always will say imagine
there aren't two to that
Observation-Disclosures.
But women are realizing more
fully the obligations which come
with motherhood. The child must
not only be trained, but the world
must be made as fit a place as pos
sible for the child. The suffrage
struggle meant that realization and
now with the vote we know we must
cooperate for results. Thus we have

in a woman's life is having some-
thing definite to do! Whether this
he in the realm of the home and
family, in n chosen career or in

not so much matter. 1t is doing
things that counts. Work dispels

WHEN A WOMAN TELLS
BY RUTH AGNES ABELING

|, curity, glad that I had at least been
trying to be four-square.
The house was stirring early the
mex morning.
Mrs. Ames. 1t seemed, had not
slept well in anticipation of her trip
to her husband. She was up with
the dawn. She sparkled at breakfast.
She was almost her old self. except
hat there was something more mel
low and more sweet about her at
t~ractiveness.
Tom came early and we set out.
Tom rode in front with the chauffeur
and Mrs. Ames and 1 in back.
1t was a wonderful road hat we
took. 1t wound through little groves
and, suddenly. past a house, desert
ed. its paneless window frames and
many gables overhanging the way
like some threatening skeleton.
And somehow, later, as we sped
over the smooth road. the thought of
the empty skeleton house attached
my mind. Like the house which
was no longer fit for human habita-
ton, he seemed to be the center of
some subtle tragedy.
l tried to throw the feeling off, blu.
as the journey grew. so grew my
feeling of something fateful, some-
thing fearful, in connection with
Mrs. Ames' brother-in-law-the man
who had put his faith in the pleasure
found with mirage-like women.
