For The
Homemaker's Eye
Food Value of Skim
and Sour Milk

The value Of skim and sour milk
as food is not generally appre-
ciated. Taken by itself skim milk
is rather thin, but when taken with
bread or used in cooking it forms
a very nutritious addition to the
diet. Skim milk has nearly all the
protein of the whole milk and is
one of the richest sources OF lime
and phosphorus. Some children re-
fuse to take milk in its natural
form. Then the wise mother covers
the taste by serving it as milk
toast, custard, creamed vegetables,
soups, junket and other simple
desserts with milk as basis.
Skim milk may be used in any
recipe calling for whole milk.
With the addition of butter, to re-
place the cream removed, the COM
position approaches whole milk.
Sour milk in cooked foods is es-
pecially good. Hot breads made
with sour milk have an extra
delicacy.
flashed Brown Potatoes

small pieces 1.-TWO cupfuls), season

ADJUSTMENTS

Uncle Toms Cabin" has not been
relegated to the motion pictures alone
for revival. This great, old American
play. with players in person, blood
hounds actually taking the trail and
all the rest of the famous makeup of
the old favorite drama will appear at
the Palace Theater for one night only,
Tuesday, March 30. Seats for the
performance are now on sale.
Uncle Tom, the kind and religious
old darky whose story is one of the
most pathetic to be found in American
literature, will be there. Little Eva,
the flower of the st. Clair plantation,
will live again as of yore. And there
will be Simon Legree, whose name is
today synonymous with the meanest
man, and Topsy, the irresponsible lit
tie pickaninny, who was not born, but
"jes growed," and Aunt Ophelia, the
prim old maid from Massachusetts,;
that funny lawyer, Marks, and all the
rest. Not forgetting the pack of
bloodhounds, the plantation singers
and musicians. and the atmosphere Of
the old south before the war.
J. W Brownlee, the producer cf the
show, has assembled competent
company and an elaborate equipment
to give really creditable revival of
this classic of the American stage.
A street parade will be given.

-Counselling a mass meeting of one,
thousand coal miners in hall at

found their origin in the approved

from the classic draperies, which

A new VICTORY EMBLEM
Directors OF Highway Association
Select OFFICIAL Insignia.

A four inch metal emblem, bearing
the figure of an American soldier
standing at present arms within a
large "V'' was selected today by the
directors of the Victory Highway as
sociation, as the official emblem OF
the association. The emblems will be
issued as soon as they can be manu-
featured in quantity, to the members
of the association, to be placed on
their motor cars
Leslie Rowles, field secretary for
the association, reported the progress
he has made in securing members for
the association in western Kansas and
eastern Colorado during the past two
months.
RowIes has visited a total of thirty
five towns in the two states-aH of
them small. Only four of the places
which he has canvassed for members
had a population of 1000 or more,
Row1es told the directors today.
He has secured approximately 400
memberships during his trip, and has
the promise of a great many more
next spring, when the tourist season
opens. Considering the fact that this
is the most inopportune season of the
year for talking motor tourist to the
people along the highway, Rowles's
report was accepted with enthusiasm
by the directors.
His work was with Chambers of
Commerce, other civic organizations,
and interested individuals, along the
route. Many of these have offered to
sign contracts for securing more
members for the association in the
spring.
Rowles has speaking dates at vari-
Gus meetings along the line of the Vic
tory Highway West of Topeka, cover
ing the first twenty days of January
he told the directors today.
Ben Blow, manager of the associa-
tion,- recently returned from a trip
thru the western states traversed by
the Victory Highway, also reported to
the directors, that every foot of the
highway from the western border of
Kansas has been approved by the
highway engineers of the states thru
which it passes, as one of the primary
Interstate roads, eligible for federal
aid
Blow also reported that in the
northern portion of California, a fund
of $15O,0O0 is being raised for the i'm
provement of the Victory Highway
across the state of Nevada, and the as
ISOLATION will be equipped to place a
maintenance truck on the Nevada
roads with the coming of spring and
the opening of the tourist season.
