 There was silence, then three awkward embarrassed cheers. Tht concertina started up again, and z song was volleyed forth with all the steam of rum-tickled threats.

The steak should be cut 1 1-2 inches thick. Trim off skin and cut fish in narrow strips. Mix and blend oil, lemon juice, onion juice, salt and pepper and dip each filet into mixture. Drain and roll. Fasten with wooden toothpicks and dredge with flour. Place on a buttered baking pan and bake 20 minutes in a moderately hot oven. Garnish with parsley and serve.
 If shoe-string or baked potatoes are served with this fish dish a cream sauce of some sort should be used with the fish. The scalloped potatoes are moist enough to make a sauce unnecessary.

show. In many a smart model a
very attractive effect Is gained bv
stitching a tiny fold In the top Of the
hat. Sometimes there is just one
fold-at others two folds at right
angles to each other.
Brims are still so tiny that they
can scarcely be called brims. And
to make them appear even smaller,
some are turned sharply up on one
side and down on the other.

Of these hats. the trimming comes
from beneath the brim. These hats
are almost universally fiattering.
Another clever type is the closely
draped turban with the trimming
either in the form of a feather fancy
or flowers or fruit also placed very
low next to the face.
But after all the smartest hat in
the world looses its chic If 1t is not
put on just at the right angle. The
days when We tilted out hats at a
precarious angle over one eye are
gone. OF course, we do not wear
them with too precise straightness.
But 1t is smarter to tilt the hat for
ward and If it is more becoming that
way-just q very little to one side.

However as soon as summer wea-

lead the way to smartness. Many a
smart model Is of silk and straw
combination either in matching or
contrasting colors. These hats will
sometimes be more delicate in tone
than the Haunting gaiety of their
spring sisters.

up twenty-five runs and let the Pasco
men get around three times.
At meeting this week Warde

approval, for Warde has had much
