LIVELY TILT OVER
 COST OF EDUCATION

ply was in the affirmative. he de- manded that the school committed man produce the proofs.
 Judge Gaffney asserted that the proof could be found in the statutes whereupon McMahon, pointing 10 n book on the table asked that the statutes referred to be read. He challenged anyone present to show cause why any department spending 30 per cent. of the city's revenue such as he claimed was true of the school department should be immune from the city government"
 Judge Gaffney corrected the in- quisitor with statement that not 30 per cent. but beween SS and 40 per cent. goes for schools.
 But after you take into consid- eration that your overdraw. it will amount to 50 per cent" was Me Mahon's reply.
 Judge Gaffney then explained that the school committeeman, though elected locally, are officials of the state, instructed by the state to edu- cate the children of New Britain. and empowered to overdraw their appro- priations if it is found necessary. By educating children is meant the secur- ing of all that is necessary for their education, he stated. Turning to Mo- Mahonh he launched into an attack on grumblers against school taxes.

He thought 1t possible. that if such a prot posal was made the state department might object. It was at the sugges- ton of q member of the school board that 'the, schools were used this year and the chairman, assured the mem bers that there was no cause for dis trusting the school board in this matr ter in the future.

Grumblers Always With Us.

There never was time when there was not grumbling against school taxes, l remember 1t when was boy; when the taxpayers got together and cut the salaries of school teachers to $e50. T have heard 1t at annual meetings at Turner hall, at and in Hanna's hall on East Main and in Hanna's hall on East Main street. It's conditioni that Is true not only of New Britain, but also of Meriden, New Haven and other cities.
 "rhe people of New Britain have always been generous with thelr ap- propriations for school purposes and am proud of them, The children have n right to good education. If you don't lay the proper foundation you'll, have the streets filled with hooligans. rowdies and apaches and you'll have continual riot and dis order.
 If there Is one place in our demo- cracy where the childreu of the poor man is on better plane if not on a superior plane to the children of the rich man. that is in our school sys- tenn. The rich man is able to send his children to private schools, but he must pay for the support of schools to educate the poorer children; and it is only right that he should"

Are they hurt? OF course, they were

hasn't been much damage done so far.
The sacks kept the peaches from the
su,tcascs very well. although OF course,
the juice came through little. But

peaches there were only few OF them
into the ravinc, and think the Others
won't bc spoiled at all. But l do want
to get them all fixed before Dicky gets
over here. What's he doing now?'

my own relief. THE truck driver evil
IDENTIFY has succumbed to Dicky's en-
treaties, and is at work upon the tire. y
"Well hurry like mad, nevertheless, )"
she answered, ''for those commercial
drivers are quick and experienced
workers"
We accordingly hurried TO such pur-
pose that before the tire was changed
the peaches had been securely sacked,
and the suitcascs and bags wedged in
SO tightly with them that there was
no possibility of their jarring. With
canny forethought, we left upon the top
of the pile the case which contained
the things Dicky would need for the
night.
"Therew Lillian exclaimed when VIC
had finished. They can't possibly get
bruised or spoil anything now if they
aren't disturbed. Let's hope nothing
me g. happens.
fervently echoed her wish, and found
it granted, for the rest of our journey
was as commonplace and uncventful as
our ordinary drives to the postoffice.
Dicky either did not see or deliberately
ignored the change we had made in
the packing of the peaches, and we ar
rived at the Connecticut village at which
we had intended to spend the nigh,
without mishap.
The next morning we left the mediocre
but fairly comfortable hotel and hur.
ried down the Connecticut coast of the
} Sound 10 New London. We reached
there Just in time to get the afternoon
boat, and after a most delightful ride
over the Sound to Sag Hartor, we be-
gan the final lap Of our journey to the

WINTER JELLIES
AND MARMALADES

What kind of tellies ard MARINA
ladies' can be made with fruits now on
the marketg'' reader friend has ask
ed. My answer is the following set of
recipes:
Apple Jelly: Cut the apples in quar-
tiers. not removing cores, and barely
cover with boiling water; let simmer
undisturbed until tender. then turn
into q jelly bag and let drip for sew
eral hours. For I quart OF this strain
ed apple juice Set aside cupe Of
granulated sugar. Heat the sugar
slightly in the oven. Put the juice
into the preserving kettle. bring to
boil. let continue to boil for 10 min
utes, add the. warmed sugar and let
boil until two drops will form at once
on the edge of a spoon when little
of the juice is held high in the air and
dripped back into the kettle (this is
called the Jelly test.") Then turn at
once into hot glasses which have been
boiled ten minutes c'sterilized") in
clear water. Let cool before covering
with melted paraffine.
Apple Mint Jelly: Use above recipe
in every detail except add j teaspoon
of dried mint leaves (this comes in
packages at most grocery stores) to
the apple juice just before the warm
ed sugar is added to it; let 1t boil 10
minutes. strain IL TO eliminate the
mint leaves, then return the juice to
the kettle and add the sugar.
Prune Marmalade: Soak and cook
8 pounds Of prunes until they are ten
der. Then cool, remove stones and
chop fine. Add pounds OF granu-
lated sugar, l thinly sliced and seeded
lemon, juice of / grapefruit, l tea
spoon each of ground ginger and
cinnamon. and II teaspoon Of ground
cloves. Add TO this mixture, cups
OF water In which the prunes were
stewed. and let the mixture boil down
until II jellies. Put into fruit Jars
'sterilized" as above described for the
| jelly glasses and cover while hot, with
the glass tops.
Orange Marmalade: To make six
glasses OF this, take 6 large oranges,
wash and weigh them. They ought to
weigh about three pounds. II so, set
aside "a pounds of graduated sugar
to be added later on. Of you dom
own a scales. measure out Ia quarts
of sugar, which is equivalent to "a
pounds. Now slit the peel of each
orange into quarter-sections (not cut
ting into the orange-pulp) and pull of
this peel. Put the peel-quarters into

boiling water chat is. enough to cover
them) and let simmer for Il hour
