Kitchen Hints
Tempting Menus

Delicious waters for afternoon tea
may be made from ordinary pie
crust. When eggs are high these
little fancies very admirably take he
place of cookies.
AS these little pastries are
very rich they should be small.
Dough should be richer than for
common pie and all ingredients
should be chilled thoroughly.
To make dough use l cup flour. 1-3
cup lard. " teaspoon salt, cold wa
ter. Rub lard in Hour and salt. Add
water, a few drops at a time, until
dough is moist enough to stick to-
gether. Put on a Toured molding
board or marble slab and roll to "a
inch thickness. Cut with cookie cut
ter. Dampen slightly. Sprinkle with
sugar and cinnamon and bake in hot
oven. When crust is set add drop
or two of water to the sugar. Bake

PRESENT ROBIN HOOD
IN PLEASING MANNER;
APPLAUSE GENEROUS

Hardly were the talented principals
of Robin Hood" equal to receive the
welcoming which poured out upon
them at their first night performance
Tuesday. Conservative Richmondites
quickly dropped the robe of complac-
ence and remained until the final, ap-
plauding generously not only Clara
Campbell (Mrs. Igleman) but also
the more deserving among the visitors.
Miss Campbell's star solo number
won two encores. A huge boquet Of
roses, sent by the Elk's club, was pre-
sented to Miss Campbell at the .conclu-
sion of her number.
Robin Hood Is staged representing
the 18th century customs, with the
scenes laid in Nottingham, England.
The first act opens with a merrymak-

Forest of Sherwood. Presently the
group is joined by .the gallant and
dashing Robin Hood (Ralph Soule).
With the appearance later of Lady
Marian (Clara CampbelD who is
Maid Marian" in the conclusion, the
principals hold the stage.
Voices Blend.
A wonderful combination of voices
is blended in the group. Ralph Soule
has a lyric tenor; Miss Campbell a
lyric soprano, but some of her notes
are in the realm of the colorature So
prano; Edwin Quin, baritone; George
Shields, bass, and Theo Pennington,
alto. Tone levels difficult to find in
the best operate talent are produced
in the solo and chorus numbers.
The story deals with the love be-
tween young Robin Hood and Lady
Marian. The sheriff of Nottingham
italian Mostyn) together with his
ward, Sir Guy, of Osborne (Sol Solo,
mon) try vainly to obstruct the mar
riage of the two. These latter two
characters, who later pass as thinkers,
while promoting heir nefarious
scheme, are the sauce of the play.
During the second act the sheriff ex-
pounds a brand of wit as fitting for
the Goth century as the 18th. "Oh fe,
file. what will your fiance;;" and Here
goes another martyr to the steak"
are examples of the sheriff's bril-
liancies.
