BROILING STEAKS OR CHOPS
gests the Department Of
Agriculture.

In broiling steaks or chops do you
use the gas broiler or do you pan
,roil" them? The United States De
tartment of Agriculture says the lat
Ter is the cheaper way. Heat the fry
ing pan sizzling hot, brush it with
just enough fat to keep the meat from
sticking, turn the meat quickly from
side to side to retain all the juices.
Meat cooked in this way is often more
juicy than when broiled in the oven.

Analyziag All the Executive Activities

Institute for Government Research
tackled soon after 1t was organized
in 1916. When all have been analysed
in this way. the Implications of effort
will show up automatically. Two bu-
reaus-the reclamation service and
the geological survey-were investi
gated in 1915 and 1917. The war came
along and stopped the work for two
yeas or so.
Then the institute once more took
up the task. Twenty-three mono
graphs, each one dealing with the
work of separate executive dr.
vision of the government. now either
have been published or are nearing
publication. About forty other inves-
LEGATIONS are planned and it Is posi-
BILE that the monographs will be close
to 100 in number before the whole
government Is analysed. Those now
published include studies Of the bu-
reau of Mines Alaskan engineering

tional education, federal trade COM

CHAPTER VII
When Am Neither One.
ANDERsoNvILLE


Well, / came last night I had on
the brown suit and the sensible hat,
and every turn of the wheels all day
had been singing: MARY, Mary, now
you're Maryi'' Why. Mother even
called me Mary when she said good
BY. She came to the junction with me
Just as she had before, and. put me
on the other train.
Nov, remember, dear, you're to try
very hard to be Joy and a comfort
to your father-jusr the little Mary
that he wants you to be. Remember,
he has been very kind to let you stay
with me so long"
She cried when she kissed me Just
as she did before; but she didat tell
nae this time to be sure and not love
Fnther better than did her. I noticed
that. But, Of course, I didn't say any
thing, though / might have told her
easily that knew nothing could ever
make me love him better than I did
her.
When we got to Andersonville, and
the train rolled into the station, l
stepped down from the cars and
looked over to where the carriages
were to find John and Aunt Jane. But
they weren't there. There wasn't even
the carriage there; and can remem-
Der now just how my heart sort Of felt
sick inside Of me when I thought that
even Aunt Jane had forgotten, and
that there wasn't anybody to meet
me.
There was a beautiful big green au-
t0mobile there, and l thought how /
wished that had come to meet me /;
and ! was just wondering what
should do, when all of a sudden some
body spoke my name. And who do
you think 1t was? You'd meyer guess

She colored up and bit her lip, and
gave queer little laugh. Then she
grew very sober and grave, and said:
II know, dear. Perhaps l am talk
ing more than used to. But, you see,
rye been thinking quite lot, and
I've learned some things. I'm trying
to make you forget what / said-about
your loving me more than him. That
wasn't right, dear. Mother was wrong.
She shouldn't try to influence you
against your father. He is a good
man; and there are none too many
good men in the world-No, no, won't
say that she broke off.
But she'd already said it. and, of
course, l knew she was thinking of the
violinist. I'm no child.

Well, once more school is done, my
trunk is all packed, and I'm ready to
go to Andersonville. l leave tomorrow
morning. But not as / left last year.
Oh, no. 1t is very, very different. Why
this year I'm really going as Mary.
Honestly, Mother has turned me into
Mary before / go. Now, what do you
think Of that? And If I've got to be
Mary there and Mary here, too, when
can ever be Marie? oh, know
said I'd be willing to be Mary half,
and maybe more than half, the time.
But when it comes to really being
Mary out of turn extra time, that Is
quite another thing.
And am Mary.
Listen:
I've learned to cook. That's Mary.
I've been studying astronomy. That's
Mary.
I've learned to walk quietly, speak
softly, laugh not too loudly, and be q
lady at all times. That's Mary.
And now, to add to all this, Mother
has had me dress like Mary. Yes, she
began two weeks ago. She came into
my room one morning and said she
wanted to look over my dresses and
things; and I could see, by the way
she frowned and bit her lip and tapped
her foot on the floor, that she wasn't
suited. She said:
II think, my dear, that on Saturday
wen have 10 go in town shopping.
Quite number of these things will
not do ut ALL"
And was so happyl Visions Of new
dresses and hats and shoes rose be-
fore me, and even the pink beaded silk
came into my mind though didn't
really have much hopes of that.
Well, we went shopping on Satur-
day, but-did we get the pink silk?
We did not. We did get-you'd never
guess what. We got two new Bingham
dresses, very plain and homely, and a
pair of horrid, thick, low shoes. Why,

son objected to your clothing and
bought new for you? Well, l am try
ting to see that she does not have to
do that this year"

serge suit and a hat SO tiresomely

lave them, l know. And tomorrow I've

away And she wrote right back and
wanted to know everything
thing l could tell her; all the little
things. And she was so interested in
Cousin Grace, and wanted to know all
about her; said she never heard of her
before and was she Fathers own cou-
sin, and how old she was, and was she
pretty, and was Father around the
house more now, and did l see lot
of him? She thought from something

told her that Cousin Grace wasn't
really Fathers cousin at all, SO it
wasn't any wonder she hadn't ever
heard of her. She was the wife of
Fathers third cousin who went to
South America six years ago and
caught the fever and died there. So
this Mrs. Whitney isn't really any rela-
ton of his at all. But he'd always
known her, even before she married
his cousin; and so, when her husband
died, and she didn't have any home,
he asked her to come here.

l understand it all everything:

Father is in love with her.
Now / guess / shall have something
for this book
1t seems funny now that / didn't

until / heard Nellie and her beau talk
ing about it. Nellie said she wasn't

going to get married. And when he
asked her what she meant, she said it
was DR.. Anderson and Mrs. Whitney.
That anybody could see it that wasn't

guesss l was. And, of course, saw
that had been blind as bat. But
began to open my eyes after that,
and watch-not disagreeably, you
know, but just glad and interested,
and on account of the book.
And l saw:
That Father stayed in the house q
lot more than he used to.
That he smiled more.
That he actually asked Cousin Grace
and me to play for him several times.
That he went with US to the Sunday
school picnic. Il never saw Father at
a picnic before, and don't believe he
ever saw himself at one.)
That-oh, don't know, but whole
lot of little things that l can't remem-
Der; but they were all unmistakable,
very unmistakable. And l wondered,

blind as a bat before.
When I wrote Mother l told her
ell about 1.-THE signs and symptoms,
l mean, and how different and thawed-
out Father was; and / asked if she
didn't think it was so too. But she
didn't answer that part. She didn't
write much, anyway. 1t was an aw-
fully snippy letter; but she said
she had a headache and didn't feel
at all well. So that was the rea-
son, probably, why she didn't say
more-about Fathers love affair, /
mean. She only said she was glad,
she was sure, if Father had found On
estimable woman to make home for
him, and she hoped they'd be happy.
Then she went on talking about some
thing else. And she didn't write much
more, anyway, about anything.
