 There Is no dish I like better than corn pudding made just like this:
 Two cups of grated corn: + cup of milk: 3z cup of cream; 1 table spoonful salt; teaspoonful of sugar; tablespoonful of butter; a pinch of baking powder.
 Cook for a half hour and serve immediately. It is brown on the top. and in a deep dish it is the most sue culent course man could wish for. I want others to share 1t with me. I wish I could give a party every night with this as the piece de re- sistance.

and to have that kind of a department the
proper sort of discipline must be maintained at
all time. 1t is no longer fashionable to wink
at the delinquencies of men in uniform. Police
officers in Kenosha are not expected to assocl-
ate with law breakers or to be friendly with
them. A police officer who is chummy with
the man who violates the law and who drinks
out of the same bottle can hardly be expected
to be overly jealous in seeking to arrest this
man when his violation of the law requires his
presence in court
The bad boy should be whipped in order to
teach him not to be bad and the offending po-
lice officer must be chastised in order that he
won't do the same thing again and with view
of teaching other members of the force that
they must walk the straight and narrow
1t may be that police officers are only human
and that they are prone to make mistakes the
same as the rest of us but the police officer
who gets so prone to err that he is continually
making the same mistake is not of the right
kind of calibre for guardian of the law.
In defense of the two score police officers who
abide by the regulations Of the department and
who seek to enforce the law with courtesy and
with reasonable vigor the city owes it to these
men to see that the force is kept clean no mat
ter if it is necessary to have police trial ev-
cry week in the year

CORRECTING THE POLICE FORCE.

Just because police officer is suspended for
Zen days or another one dropped from the ros-
Ter of the force there is no reason to believe
that the force is disintegrating or that the
Morale of it has been shattered, rather the
hight view is that the proper machinery of cor
'ection is being brought into play to keep the
lorce up to the highest possible efficiency.
The old adage, Spare the rod and spoil the
shild," applies just as well to a police depart
nent as it does to the organization of family
md it is proper and necessary for the head of
The department to take the boys into the wood
Ihed every once in awhile and ply the paddle
The short comings of police are no more nu-
nervous and not nearly so numerous now as
hey have been in other years but the differ
'nce is that the discipline of the force is better
md that officials who fail to live up to their
'ath of Office and their regulations are being
alled upon the carpet and forced to comply
With these reasonable regulations.
Proper correction of the short comings of a
polce department are the best possible assur-
lnce that someone is in charge of the depart
nent and that there is going to be order and
discipline there, Recent hearings before the
nty manager show the need of such corrective
Influences.
Kenosha people in general want courteous
Rw abiding. law enforcing police Gseartment

Your Health
PREVENTING DYSPEPSIA.

The old fashioned "doc" with his
long black coat and little black bag,
who always requested peek at your
tongue, was quite right. He knew that
dyspepsia is regular thing with lots
of people and that lots of "ills and ails"
come from it.
You cannot suffer from dyspepsia
without the tongue giving you away.
The common symptoms are fairly
we'll known, so don't forget to inspect
the tongue if dyspepsia is the trou-
BILE you are looking for.
For additional evidence there is the
three degrees of taste, sometimes bit
ter, sometimes sweet, sometimes acid.
The appetite may be poor or again it
may be quite the opposite
Pain is often present. Palpatation of
tHe heart is a symptom. Belching of
gas is another. The patient frequently
is troubled With headache, biliousness,
nervousness or dizziness.
TO keep from dyspepsia, choose your
diet with care, having always in mind
your own system. If of dyspeptic ten
denotes, make careful study of the
cause and possible remedy. In addi-
ton, general hygiene and sanitation
count, in regard to clothing and bath
ing. Rubbing also must be thorough
ly understood.
AS a corrective and preventive diet
eat grease, vegetables, toast, soft boiled
eggs, prunes> and baked apples. Milk
is always good if in the right condi-
ton. Above all avoid constipation.
Proper food and habits will save you
from this wasting, lingering trouble,
which is the parent of many diseases.

should make this trip and there is nothing to

architecture that will win worldwide
popularity. 1t will be modernization
of the Gothic, it's chief characteristic
being slenderness Of form and ade-

The skyscraper is Americas great

is the product of the architectural
theory that form should follow func-

and the practical creation is artistic

through thesis he wrote for the de-
gree Of Master of Arts, Chambers
picked up" an addict and tried to
cure him by taking him to college
fraternity house.
Chambers is a 1922 graduate of Sy-
racuse. He investigated the eastern
city's dope colony personally, working
with the Red Gross. There he grew
to know drug ''iend" who had made
several upsuccessful attempts to break
himself of the habit.
Actual curbing of the. habit is but
the first step in permanent cure,
Chambers believed. There remained
the problem of readjustment, which
involved creating within the victim the
desire for higher ideals, an awaken
ing of his responsibilities in life.
st was realized it would be impos-
sible and impracticable to keep him
under guard indefinitely" Chambers
says. Sooner or later he must assoc
ciate with others, which would depend
upon his environment and future de-
.sires.
University surroundings carried a
different atmosphere than he had ever
before experienced. The fellows made
him feel atNhome. Never once did they
mention his past.
But Chambers goes on to explain
that out of his entire observation he
failed to find permanent cure. The
man whom he took to the frat house
kept away from the drug for year.

OFFSPRING

John Brubacher came to America
from Switzerland in the year ITO. The
other day 1900 of his descendants held
a reunion to honor his memory. If
all the people of ITO had that many
descendants the earth's population
would be 1900 times as many as it was
213 years ago. ~
Old-time economists had a theory
that if nature didn't kill so many of
us by wars, famine, pestilence and the
like, population would multiply beyond
the eareh's ability to support it. The
Worlo War and such catastrophes as
the recent earthquake in Japan seem
to be part of the workings of this
theory,

THE DOUBT
/ BY BERTON BRALEY

TIME was when was ready
For any old adventure;
When 1 was brash and heady,
Oblivious of censure.
But now, l figure chances
Down to the, smallest fraction,
l weigh the circumstances
Before l get in action.
TIME was 1 chased illusion
4 And thought advice was needless,
And plunged into confusion
With eager youth and Needless;
But now, before | journey
In fantasy's dominion,
l talk with my attorney
And ask for his opinion!
7 ONCE was most imprudent,
1 AS young men, / suppose, are;
But now | am a student
Of what the ''coRs" and pros" are.
And from a lot Of humping
I've gained some erudition,
I'm not 50 quick at jumping
At each new proposition.
I'VE learned to curb my hurry
And thus avoid blunder,
And yet-7and yet worry
And cogitate, and wonder;
I wish some kind adviser
Ny load of doubt would shoulder
Say, am | getting Wiser,
Or merely getting Older?
