Sister Mary Tells
How To Make
Tasty Dill Pickles

Every old garden had it's bed of
dill, and now that so many women
are c~ultivating old-fashioned gar
dens why not include this fragrant
old-timey herb?
Dill can be dried and used during
the winter months when greens arr
scarce, in plain salads, egg salads
and with creamed fish. Let stand in
cold water to freshen It for winter
use In salads.
And nearly everyone likes the tang
of dill in pickles with wiener or club
sandwiches.
Dill pickles are usually made of
cucumbers from three to four inches
long. The cucumbers can be put
into the brine as gathered, a few at
a time, until the crock containing
them is full. Then cover with grape
leaves TO keep crisp and take car
OF any top spoilage.
Dill Pickles
Wash cucumbers and wipe smooth
and dry. Make a brine of four
quarts of water and n quart salt.

a weight to keep under the brine

Beauty Hints for Men

In mirrors on elevators, chewing
gum slot machines, and even the re-
Elections from the plate-glass window

There is great need for public
opinion to sanction these beauty

certain If his tie Is properly adjust

It undermines his ~self-respect to

Furtive powdering Of noses-oh,
yes, they do it-should be right out
in the open. This bootlegging in tall

II you want g baby who sleeps

'"These grandmothers and great

''The mountaineers are the real
descendants of the colonial settlers,

of them live almost as primitively as
they did zoo years ago.
Mutual Help

AMERICAN LEGION CLOSES
DEAL FOR BUILDING LOT

The Dudley Loomis post of the
American Legion here has closed a
deal for the purchase of piece of
real estate located at the corner of
Seventh and Main streets, the first
step in the announced intention of
the legion post to own it's home The
deal was consumated through Attor-
ney A. H. Oversmith, acting for Fred
S. Norton, former owner of the pro-
perty
The lot, which is centrally located,
is fifty by one hundred and twnety-
five feet. No purchase price was
given, but it was stated at the legion
headquarters that note for the bal
ance still due on the property had
been given for $780, which will fall
due in one year. 1t is hoped that the
amount due on the note can be raised
by the organization in the near future,
after which it is the hope of the legion
to raise funds with which to start
their permanent home. 49,
The committee on the purchase of
the lot consisted of c. e. Behre, j.
w. Parkhurst, and w. r. Melgard. Mr.
Norton, to whom the lot formerly be-
longed, is now living in Iowa.

CULDESAC AT LEWISTON SAT-

Moscow high school Saturday even

trict basketball tournament held at
Lewiston over the weekend by TAX
ing their final game from the Guide
sac quintet 25 to Is, in what was
one of the best games of the tourna-
ment, despite the fact that both teams
were weary from the strenuous sche
dule participated in during the three
day meet The local team was clearly
the superior in every respect to their
opponents, having won their first and
last game in the tournament from
them. Culdesac showed the effect of
three games played Friday more so
than did the local players, and Greene,
their steady floor leader, was forced
to leave the final game from exhaus
ton.
Moscow took an early lead from the
Culdesac five, and gained z to 2
margin during the first few moments
of play. Culdesac evidently found
herself about that time, however, for
they raised the score to II to be-
fore the end of the first half. The
second period opened with Culdesac
trying vainly to head the leading Mos
COW aggregation, but with little sue

northern team, and after squirting for
the first five minutes was plainly

for Culdesac, was unable to hit the
basket with his accustomed regular
ity, while the Moscow team hooped
the net with apparent ease.
Moscow Men Star.
Nedro's consistent shooting and his
fast floor work were again largely
responsible for the Moscow victory
Drury played a brilliant game <cen
ter, though not being able to hit the
basket as he is accustomed. Woody
played clever ball. and was credited
with four field goals. Nedros was
high point man, with five baskets and
three out of five conversions of fouls.

Frank White, pioneer resident Of
Moscow, who had Just returned from
California, where he had spent the
winter with his family, went to his
home, on Hayes street, which had
been closed for the winter, he found
the door open, nd on investigation
found three young men OCCUPYING a
room on the second floor. Mr.. White
quizzed the boys little and was told
that they had just come in from Lew
iston. They were unable to give any
excuse, however, for being in his
home. He then locked them in the
room and went across the street to
a neighbor's to call the police. While
he was gone the boys made their es-
cape through the window.
1t is not known whether the boys
intended to burglarize the house, or
to make it headquarters for a time,

COMIC OPERA COMING
TO UNIVERSITY OF IDAHO

"Cosi fan tutte - or "The School
of Lovers" to give it it's English name,
for it will be sung in English, will
be given by William Wade Hinshaw's S
celebrated company of all-star Ameri-
can singers at the university audi
torium on the evening of March %.
This little comic opera was the most
popular of the novelties given last
year at the Metropolitan Opera House,
New York. It's sparkling, tuneful
music, it's gay comedy and it's pictur-
esque setting and costuming, make it
an opera comique that once seen will
not soon be forgotten. 1t is un-
doubtedly Mozart's best work of this
type, and 2Oth Century America finds
it quite as delectable as did 18th
Century Europe.
The story of the opera is filled with
intrigue and abounds in laughable
situations. 1t tells the story of two
beautiful sisters, Leonora and Dora
bella, who are bethrothed to two
Neopolitan officers. The two officers,
confident of the fidelity of their
sWeethearts, accept a wager put to
them by Don Alfonso, cynical
bachelor friend, and agree to test the
love of their fiancees. Under pretext
tary duty, the two officers disguise
themselves as Albanian nobIemen, and
before the sun has set, each has won
the heart and hand of the others
sweetheart. Disillusioned, but for
giving the officers agree to forgive
and forget, while Don Alfonso
laughingly remarks " You must not
censure woman for flirting" "Cosi
fan tutte," which being translated
means they all do it.
The action is fast and furious and
the music keeps pace with the merry
plot. 1t abounds in tuneful solo, duet.
quartet, and sextet numbers, while
the entire three acts sees no abate-
ment in the gay comedy.
This will be the last on the univer-
sity artist course for the year. Re-
served seats will be on sale Thursday
at Hodgins for $1.25 and $1.0O.
