ing a red flag before bull has no

Says Women Should
Have Greater Field

CHICAGO, Aug. 29.-To remove
obstacles confronting women in the
Christian ministry is the object of
the International Association of Wo-
men Preachers. which opened its an
nual convention here yesterday, ac-
cording to the Rev. Madeline South
ard of Winfield, Kan, president of
the organization.
Wider opportunity for women in
all the professions and the problem
of the outcast woman are the prin-
cipal subjects to be taken up, Miss
Southland said.
THE idea that women cannot fol-
low a profession is ridiculous" she
asserted. THE time will come when
homework car be disposed of in five
hours, leaving time enough for every
woman to have as wide a life as men
and at the same time giving them
more time for their children. At
present they do not have time to care
for the children. They are too much
occupied with keeping house"

Custards The Ideal
Summer Desert
By Sister Mary

Custard makes an ideal summer
dessert. A meal deficient in meat
supplying the necessary calories of
protein is brought to perfect balance
by the right dessert.
Custards require careful watching
during baking to make them per-
fectly firm and smooth. The oven
must not have a growing fire back
OF II because the temperature should
not increase. Eggs should always
be cooked al a low temperature and
the milk and egg combination is no
exception.
Baked custard is so easily digested
that in a family with children or an
invalid the one dessert " for
everyone.
Custards with fruit are delicious
and most acceptable when fruits are
in season.
Apple Custard
Two pounds apples, q cup sugar,
4 eggs. 2 cups milk, u teaspoon salt.
Pare, core and slice apples. Stew
with one-half cup sugar and three
tablespoons water till soft. Rub
through a fine sieve. Scald milk.
Beat yolks of eggs with remaining
sugar and salt. Pour scalded milk
slowly on yolks, stirring constantly.
Return to fire and cook over hot
water until custard coats the spoon.
Do not let the custard boil during
cooking. Beat the whites of two of
the eggs until stiff and dry. Beat in
four tablespoons of sugar. Put ap-
pie pulp in a baking dish, pour over
custard and cover with meringue.
Bake eight minutes in a moderate
oven.
Plain Baked Custard
Two cups milk, 1-3 cup sugar, 3
eggs, n teaspoon salt, nutmeg.
Beat eggs slightly with sugar and
salt. Heat milk to the scalding
point and add to egg mixture. Stir
until sugar is thoroughly dissolved.
Pour into buttered custard cups or
one large buttered baking dish.
Sprinkle with nutmeg. Set in a
deep pan of scalding water. The
water should come at least two
thirds of the way TO the top Of the
molds. Bake about 80 minutes in a
moderate oven. Do not let the water
boil while baking. When a silver
knife is cut into the custard and
combs out clear the custard is done.
Caramel Custard
Six tablespoons brown sugar, 2
tablespoons water, 2 cups milk, 3
eggs, u cup graduated sugar, Is
teaspoon salt, u teaspoon vanilla.
Put the brown sugar in an iron
or aluminium frying pan. Heat, stir
ring constantly, until sirupy. Add
boiling water and cook two or three
minutes. Butter and warm custard
cups. Put two tablespoons caramel
in each cup. Beat eggs slightly with
sugar and salt. Scald milk and stir
into mixture. Add vanilla. Pour
into cups and bake in a pan Of hot
water in a moderate wen.
Maple Custard
Boil n cup maple strip until
thick and reduced one-third. Use as
the caramel is used in the preceding
recipe. Make custard as in caramel
custard.
These proportions are calculated
to serve four persons.

Fashions, probably, might be con-

reasoning that women wish to be

Scientific methods of baking cher

directly under the category of sex

heart is through his stomach.
A harmless fiction serial which
never oversteps the bounds of good
