The Prime Essential of New England Dinner

seen 0taser supposedly fellow-nen order and devour similar feeds, actually with an aYpeErznce Of enjoyment So power ful is bhe force of imagination
 vas buzn. hrud edueatson and have Nxed seventy years in the gates of New England I have eaten breakfasts and dinners and Suppers in every one of its six states. I claim reason for assuming the right to say what is the chief char acteristic of a true 'New England din- ner" And I unAesitatingly declare my confirmed belief that the one primo es- sential of such a dinner, the one crown of it's gustatory perfection is, not corned beef. nor cabbage. nor potatoes 'boiled with their jackets on," but
 PIE!
 By that somewhat encyclopedia word do not mean the fearSome uondescripIs which bakeries bake and which hotels and restaurants so denominate on their alluring but unveracioCs bills of fare. mean the pie cunningly compounded of the nuttiest possible four, the whitest possible homemade lard and the most delectxoIe "dlAng'' which years of per sonal experience and generations of he reditary influences have taught the rri- umphant New England housewife to make and bake in her own kitchen range

 To n proper appreciation of pie two states of mind are essential One is the New England mentality. This must be inborn. It cannot be acquired. It is a slow growth through generations of he

reditary tendencies and environing in- fiuences. It is definable yet obvious and unmistakeable. It is as clearly marked in the backroads farmer of the I1itchfield hills as in the Brahmin of Boston'S Bea- con street
 It is, therefore gift, and not an ac- Quirement
 The second essential is unauenchable faith in the piemaker: Such faith as the small boy has in his own mother. and such as older boys come to attain in otn- : CT motherly souls of whom the world is not worthy.
 Given these two states of mind with the reinforcing physical demand which comes from a day spent in labor or play on New England hills, and ehe absorp- tion of pie rises from a mere physical function to a plane of artistic satisfac- ! tion. It regales the body; 1t calms the mind it soothes the soul Nectar and anbrosia could do no more.
 But pie to attain it's ultimate of per- lection, must not only be composed by | an expert and baked by wise woman, l it must also be served with munifcence That wit is own brother to wisdom was never more amply demonstrated than when the funny man" of Tue Toledo Blade wrote, the other day:

But, for mathematical and geometrfc reasons. and because of the difficulty of trisecting circle into three equal segments, off-hand as it were, a quadration is permissible Beyond that the well-trained New England intellect will not wander, If the pie be made, as | it should be, in a deep tin. ona which permits room for general filing beneath the bossed protuberance of it's haky up- percrust, then it's division into four 1 practically equal pieces need cause no rebellion on the part of the four recipi- ents. But the sound mind refuses to consider anything more fractional.

YOUR TOWN

If you want to live in the kind of town Like the kind of town you like, You needn't slip your clothes in grip And start on long, long hike; You'll only find what you left behind, For there's nothing that's really new; It's knock at yourself when you knock
 your town
 It isn't your town-it'S you. Real towns are not made by men afraid Lest somebody else gets ahead; When every one works and nobdy shirks, You can raise a town from the dead; And, if while you make your personal stake Your neighbor can make one, too. Your town will be what you want to see, It isn't your town-it'S you.
