For many years 1 have gone deer hunting in northern Michigan with an outfit that takes along a lumber jack as roustabout, but does all it's own cooking Each man in the out fit has his own speciality. repertoire of dishes, which he is called upon to serve up a couple of times while we are in camp. l am rough cook and a bit absent minded at times-there is a tradition that once- upon time essayed the mixing of popovers using powdered sugar in lieu of flourl It was not a satisfactory re- cipe. Generally speaking, 7 make the coffee. fry bacon, eggs, hush turn out soda biscuits and popovers and flapjacks and mullins. The one complicated dish entrusted to my concoction is Camp Pot Pie. Here Is the method of my procedure:
 In a good sized kettle I put hunks of deer meat and of salt pork, half dozen onions and some potatoes doc tor them with salt and pepper, cover well with hot water, bring to a boil and let simmer. With cups of sifted flour I mix teaspoons of baking powder. 1 teaspoon of salt, tablespoon shortening and enough milk and water to make a soft dough. This I roll out a half inch thick and cut in strips. Removing the ingredi
 ents from the kettle I lay strips of dough on the bottom. then meat and vegetables, other strips of dough, more meat and vegetables until ket- tie is full. There is always a kettle of broth handy-I steal enough to

Mother rushes from one tonsorial struggler to an other helping, chiding. encouraging.
 Perhaps things would go little more smoothly if she would settle all questions of attire the night be- fore. By each small bed she might lay out, in immaculate order. the clothes to be donned the next morn ing. There are the long white stock ings, the clean underclothes, the crisp petticoats and boomers the dainty dress over the back of the chair and the white kid shoes under it. Baths have been taken the night previous, so there is nothing for the small fry to do but to get into the garb laid out for them Mothers decision should be regarded as final her choice cannot be disputed.
 One mother I know of, who fol- lows this Sunday morning system. gives the children their breakfast upstairs and lets them play about in their bathrobes and slippers until time to dress for Sunday school. This avoids their dressing twice or getting their crisp clothes mussed by wearing them too long before starting off. This plan also keeps them out from under foot while the mother is busy about her prepara- tions downstairs.

SOMETHING ABOUT ENGLISH MANNERS
By JULIA =HOYT CMrs. LydfE HOyt.)
tMrs. LydfE HOyt.) Copyright, 1923. by North American Newspaper Alliance for the Age


 l have received many letters from readers all over the United States and Canada asking about and pointing out to me certain differences be- tween American and English eti- auette, and it was this general inter est in the etiquette of both countries that led me to devote the last article of my series to this very subject.
 Having spent some time abroad, and good deal of 1t In England. I am quite familiar with their customs. and yet l must say that l can find very little variation in the actual Fundamentals of our etiquette. Eng land, to be sure, has it's own indivi- dual customs that differ from ours, but as to actual points of etiquette, l know of nothing vastly different from ours except, perhaps, their manner of eating. But even in this matter we are adopting their GUS toms rapidly so that now 1t is al most entirely a matter of personal preference rather than anything else.
 The only real difference. I think. lies in the fact that the English are more conservative and phlegmatic. while often we seem to be suffering from too much spontaneous and ex uberant spirit which makes us more democratic and what we choose to call hail fellow well met" peo- pie. Although the English are not demonstrative, they are very kind and sympathetic when one is in grief or trouble. but they are easily chilled by any efforts toward a too sudden intimacy. They resent anything like pushing" more, perhaps, than any other people in the world.
 It seems to me that in the English mans reserve and aloofness lies all the difference between us. He hates all ostentatious display and extrav- aeance and considers it bourgeois if not downright vulgar. It must be remembered that economy is part of every Englishman's religion. He

CHAPTER 1o2

CHAPTER 1o%
 It vas with sense of depression and weariness that Lang starteu back toward the little village or Southold, sam Travers' car following him through the darkness and rain' Lang had had his talk with the man who had stolen $500 of James Walshs money, and it had been hard ordeal.
 A worse ordeal faced him. The talk with James Walsh himself.
 Yet Victoria's happiness depended on keeping Sam Travers deed a secret. The cashier and the president of the bank could be trusted to main- tain silence if Lang asked them to, and if the money were refunded.
 The money would be refunded. Kenneth Lang had Sans written promise. Moreover. with the threat of jail over him, Travers would be afraid to play false. He was thoroughly terrified.
 James Walsh might demand im- mediate restitution. In which case. if Travers did not have the money 1t must be forthcoming.
 Kenneth Lang must get back to Saxville immediately. Walsh had gone away today. He would return home this evening. Unless too tired. he might balance his handbook to- night. But no, of course he could not. He would wait until tomorrow when he was in his office.
 Perhaps he was in the habit of having his secretary balance his &C., counts for him!
 Lang must talk with him before this was possible.
 At pr. Grants Kenneth stopped his car and, without waiting to speak of Travers, hurried up the steps. Victoria had been watching from the window and opened the front door for him.
 Where is Sam?" she asked.
 Waiting for you" he said. MT. Hamilton is ready for you both" You will be a witness, won't your" she begged. dropping her voice.
 .I cannot, my dear" he replied. T must go right back to Saxville." "Why?"
 Business"
 She shrugged her shoulders. "Busi- ness." she scoffed. Tt can wait" She did not understand the smile with which he looked at her.
 The business l refer to cannot wait" he said.
 What did you want to see Sam about?" she asked, suddenly remem- bering that it was for this that Ken meth had left her nearly an hour ago. z1

 Anything connected with our marriage?" she demanded.

 Victoria raised her face to his, and, as once before, kissed him.

 Perhaps that is why we so seldom see English people overdressed. over jeweled. or their homes overdecorat- ed There one always finds a quiet grandeur that few of our decorators ever attain. or perhaps 1 should say, are permitted to attain.
 It is this very common sense at titude on their part that not only tells in their dress and their homes but shows even in their dinners.

 Wear Dinner Clothes.
 To sit down even to the plainest dinner, as we do. in plain clothes would never be permitted. Even at the everyday family dinner one al ways finds the diners in evening or at least semi-evening dress. This, in fact, is absolutely obligatory in every well ordered English household, and I often feel that 1t is unfortunate that Americans have not adopted this custom more generally. Of course, the American women go in for this quite a bit, but the men seem to dislike to dress for dinner even when they are dining out As for dressing for dinner at home that is done only among those in high society,"" The rest of the American women have to be satisfied with men who will Just wash up and, on special occasions. shave. And I hear that some of them make as much fuss about 1t as little boys about washing their ears.

 And as there was nothing else to do, all the Woodland creatures went back to the Chipmunk home and con- tinued their happiness picnic. And all decided that they would write nice letter to Doctor Stork, and per- haps they, too, would have as much happiness as the Chipmunk with their Chipmunk babies.

NOVEL ROAD BUILDING PLAN
Stretch Of Quarter Of Mile Long Built
to Endure Is to Be De-
stroyed Rapidly.

A road about a quarter Of q mile
long, built as enduringly as possible,
to be destroyed as quickly as possible,
Is the odd but practical basis of an
experiment now being conducted at
Pittsburg, CAL, says the Christian
Science Monitor. The road is laid
down in the shape of race track and
is constructed Of IS sections, each one
of a different type Of concrete pave
ment. The problem is to find out
which will last longest. A procession
of some 40 motor trucks, loaned by the
United States government, travels con-
tinuOusly over its surface. There are
tunnels underneath and bitches along
the sides from which observations of
the effect of traffic on the different
sections are being made. Sections that
wear out first are to be restored and
kept in repair until the stOutest sec
ton, whichever II may prove to be, has
been destroyed. The cost Of building
and wearing out the road, which is be
ing betrayed in part by contributions
of men, machinery and material by the
road building interests. probably will
run into hundreds of thousands Of dol
lars. 1t is hoped. however, that the
practical information thus obtained
will more than offset its cost.

HOW TO STIMULATE CONSOLIDATION
OF RURAL AND CITY SCHOOL SYSTEMS

= he Nldalla Advance advances good point in
recent editoria wherein it discusses CONSOLE
dated Schools for its county and CITY and brings
out the one real obstacle to a consolidation plan
OF city and rural schools and suggests a feasible
remedy for the same. The Advance in speaking
OF the problem IN its own city, states:
We believe the OF consolidated school districts
in Georgia being heidi back by the fact than any NUM-
cpaly that gives up its independent system and goes
INTO the equity system for the purpose of having conso
daed school district laid around the town is forced
to accept county tax valuations which are invariably
lower than the valuations placed property v the city
assessors
The citizens OF Nidaa last year discussed the DIar
OF aboshng their city school system and going into the
county system and having large consolidated school
district around Ndaa The people OF Lyons were anxious
10 make this same move but in both cases was found
that with the low Valuations placed on property bv the
county assessors. even with large district less money
would be received to support the school than the cite
are now receiving On the other hand the number OF p
pills would be greatly increased and all expenses OF the
school would be greater
here is simple for this situation which is re-
tardng the OF school consolidation in Georgia and
that tor tie school districts be given bv law special
boards OF assessors that property values Tor school
taxation can be kept up at about full market value II
suuch law in existence at this time the people OF
Nidalla could abolish their independent system Join the
county system and have large consolidated school dis
trict laid of around the city, secure in the knowledge
that with the proper valuations insisted upon for tax re-
turns there would be sufficient income to support the
school and take of the additional expense which con-
solidation would entail
