~Let'. 20 on a steak roasl. "


The next time some one mentions that
to you think il over carefully before com
ing to a decision Did you ever stop to
think what steak roast it?
Judging from the name steak roast, one
would be led TO believe that going on
a steak roast is walking mile or more
into the country, building a fire-not be.
cause you need one to keep warm. be-
cause steak roasts are always given on
warm moonlight nights-but for the sole
purpose Of cooking the steaks and sitting
around the fire and enjoying the refresh
ing evening breezes as they blow through
the trees.
But you faint heard nothin' YETI Now
listen to the real meaning Of steak roast.
You get the crowd together, set suit
able date for the party, and decide to
meet at certain place about 5 O'Clock.
The fatal day arrives and everyone eats
a light lunch in order to have a good
appetite for the steak roast. About 6:3O
O'Clock the same evening everyone has
arrived at the meeting place and you
start walking. About half an hour later
you begin to feel as if you hadn't had a
square meal for week and when you
finally arrive at the top Of the highest
hill in the couniry-the place which has
been selected for the steak roast-you are
SO weak you don't care whether you ever
eat another meal or not.
And just about this time the wind picks
up to from forty to fifty miles an hour
and the fun" begins. The girls sit down
and Immediately begin TO converse about
the weather. remarking that they certain
ly wish they had worn their heavy coats,

A Steak Roast Is All Right---But
Take a Tip and Eat It at Home

while the members Of the stronger sez
gather wood. After numerous unsuccess-
ful attempts, an imitation FIRE is finally
started and the boys start cooking the
Maynower steaks--so called because they
were imported into this country by the
Pilgrims number Of years ago. By 8
O'Clock the steaks are ail cooked ard the
meal is in readiness. Everyone has a
good appetite, and all enjoy the meal
at least they say they do.
As soon as the meal is over the song
birds get together and strike up little
harmony. Everyone heaycs a sigh Of re.
lief when some thoughtful person starts
singing "Homc Sweet Home" The party
breaks up.
When civilization is reached again the
girls say they had perfectly wonder
full time and so do the boys. Draw
your own conclusions. But the next time
someone invites you to go on a steak
roast -let your conscience be your guide. {"
