HOG Jovyl and Turnip Greens, Padu-

For q person who has written sc
copiously about food and the pleas
ures Of eating It. probably know
less Of the art Of preparing it than
any other living creature. cannot
give my favorite recipe because
have none; but am glad to give the
names of my two favorite dishes, to
wit. as follows: First. hog jowl and
turnip green's, Paducah style: second
another helping Of the same.
Editors Note: Hog jowl. Paducah
style, may be prepared like this:
Get the jowl. Some prefer it cooked
and served with the bone: others re-
move the bone before serving 1t. Boil
it in we'll salted water for thirty
minutes, then add the turnip greens
and boil At least thirty minutes long
er. Serve with plenty OF butter fol
dressing: q dash Of vinegar and 4
semi-coion OF mustard are used BY
some folks who are hard to please.
Beet Greens could be used, but they
are not considered au fait. and to use
spinach IL an absolute faux pas.

gorgeous girdle of crystal beads. More
beads are scattered over the gown in
such profusion that il seems to have
been dipped in sea of crystals and
taken forth shimmering mass.
The new coats with their long. close
fitting lines seem dreaGfully strange
after SO many seasons of loose wraps.
However. circular skirts look ridiculous
under short coats, unless they are mere
ly fur jaquettes. and the coat that
touches the ankles is really the only
suitable type Of wrap to wear while
long skirts are in vogue. The one pic
tured is of black marvella cloth and
caracul. The fashionable fur forms a
deep snawl-like collar. and is also used
for the ample sleeves and for side pam
els which reach from the shoulders to
the waist. Panels of marvella continue
the line from the waist and extend be-
low the coat edge. a tiiigreed disc
serves TO button the collar ends to-
sether at the. e.iront. andals0 adds a dis
tinctive totch Of trimming.
White satin hats on display in local
millinery establishments remind us that
the Florida season is almost here. while
hower-trimmed taffeta- chapeau sound
the knell for winter models. Neverthe-
less. the practical sea son for fur
trimmed hats is just beginning. and
they seem lovelier this year thalP ever
before. The one illustrated is of light
pearl gray duvetyn with a crown-like
front of moleskn. PuffS of the soft ma
terial appear at each side of the fur,
so that the effect is that of huge rib
bon bow, as charming as it is youthful.

HAVE ANE RECORD.
EIihu Burritt Boys Make Fine Ath-
 letes as Well as Scholars.

The Elihu Burritt Junior High school has a knack of not only turn ing out good scholars but also of turning out star athletes Among the star athletes it has developed are John C"klitz'D klatka, Charles Ha- Der, Samuel ("Dusty') Yahm, Hsn- ry Bojnowski, John Gripp, Charles Baker Benny Birnbaum and Ape finklestein.
 Haber, Bojnowski and Gripp are at present members of the New Britain High school football team, while Klatka was star catcher of the base ball nine last year. Finklestein was on the track squad and brilliant fu- ture is predicted for him. Yahm the diminutive but aggressive star, was not able to show much of his wares as ne did not remain in High school long. He is now a popular member of the Smith Business college.
 All this all the more remarkable when they have attained their prom thence without any coaching of worth. Also. last years basketball team was the first team to represent the school in any athletic event
 That team was composed of the first five named above and with Klatka as offensive and little Yahm as he defensive stars they ran riot over most of their opponents.
 To prove that athletics did not in terfere with the studies is shown by the fact that Birnbaum, Finklestein and Klatka were graduation officers. Yahm. the all-around star, was also a star student and was the winner of the essay contest on Thrift last year. Haber was president of the Civic League
 Principal Harold F. Dempsey is proud of the boys he has turned from his school They are a credit to him, to his school, and to the teachers.
