ACTION IS ASKED
ON SUBSCRIPTIONS
FOR HALL PROJECT
Auditorium Comm ittee
Called to Meeting
Tonight.

When Col Robert N. Harper.
chairman OF the Washington audlto-
rum organization committee. calls
the meeting to order In the grid
iron room of the New willard to-
night at 8 o'clock, il is expected that
pledges and subscriptions for the un-
deryritIng OF 100000 for Washing
tons Convention Hall viii have been
completed.
Chairman Harper wrote a personal
letter TO the members OF the COM
mittce pointing out that within the
next few days II will be necessary
to make the FIRST payment on the
ground.
While IL will not be necessary to
cali for the entire amount OF the
subscriptions at once. the first call
to be made will be a nominal sum
in order to pay cash for the land.
This Is due to the fact that the in
dividual investors in the Washing
ton auditorium will hold. individual
iy and collectively. the first mort
gage on the property as represented
by the first trust bonds. which will
bear interest at the rate OF per
cent. Every investor will be given
so per cent IL bonds and 50 per cent
N stock.
Col. Harper expressed himself as
grstihed by the manner in which
some Of the most representative mer-
chants in Washington have received
the proposal,
Immediate, action on stock sub
scriptions means a like action in the
lconstruction Of the auditorium. As
soon as the entire issue OF the stock
and bonds is sold, formation of the
Auditorium Company will be CON-
pleted. a building committo will be
named. and duly qualified architects
and engineers will be called in and
the most desirable plans accepted
by means OF competition.
There is reason to believe that the
Auditorium can he started by May

months time.

LOTUS ROBES sHORTCAKE

Lotus RObb is now playing in ''Kem- py," one of the hits of the season, at the Belmont Theatre, New York. She is well remembered for her character ization of Goldie MacDuff in "Rollo's Wild Oats" last season. She gives her favorite recipe for an old-time South ern strawberry shortcake:
 Into mixing bowl place two and One-half cups flour. One-half teaspoon salt, two level teaspoons baking pow der, four level tablespoons sugar. Sift and mix and rub into prepared flour the following: Five tablespoons but ter, one-half cup thick cream and one well-beaten egg. To make the dough: Roll out to about one-half inch thick and cut with large biscuit-cutter brushing lightly with melted butter Put two of the biscuits together. place on baking-sheet and bake in a hot oven for thirteen minutes. Split while still warm and cover the lower part with crushed and sweetened berries. Serve with whipped cream or thin custard From the November Designer.

 Place a sheet of waxed paper in your tin when baking fish and you avoid the unpleasant task of cleaning sticky pan.
 Do not peel rhubarb when making pie or sauce, because the skin adds the delicate pink that makes it so much more appetiZing. There is also a mineral value next to the skin.
 To keep pies from boiling over, make funnel of stiff paper and put in the center of your pie through the upper crust. Your juice will boil into the funnel instead of out over the pie The tough white skin can be easily | removed with the rind if oranges are heated in the oven for a few minutes Save all your celery tops, wash them thoroughly, put them in a paper bag and hang behind the range till they are thoroughly dried. They will then | crush up to fine powder, and are very nice to have on hand to flavor soups, croQuettes and potted meats.

 WAISTLlNE?

If you want to reduce your waist line, here are two of the best exer- cises known:
 Stand, feet eighteen inches apart, elbows at sides, forearms and hands extended palms up, stretch fingers. Swing left hand downward, touching the right foot, right hand stretched upward as far as possible, eyes look ing upward toward the right hand. Back to first position. Reverse the movement to the opposite side, right hand down and left hand up. Do this series three times.
 Then take same standing position only clasp your hands down in front of you as if you were holding an aX. Roll up to the right side, and when hands are directly above head, stretch backward and chop vigorous ly as before. Do this series three times.-From the November Delin' eator.

 No, my son. replied the old ab- be. You will not have done your penance until you take the bag, go again on your rounds. collect every feather you have dropped, and bring it here to me"
 The gossip protested that it would be impossible: he could not find the bits of down in a lifetime; many of them have blown far away
