Remember a FeSD o
These Hints and
SaUe Time.

Il No tendency Of the present time
is more to be comm ended or recon-.
amended than the picnic habit.
Every weekend sees professions OF
automobiles. with full hampers,
whixzing off to the country, or
gaiIy filled canoes bent on camp
or some favorite nook, or trampers
starting for the open road. Some
ok these same picntckers are bent
on little camping parties in truth.
Bacon bats and wienie roasts sup
plant the cold luncnes, and the
sizzling sausage or slice OF tacon
served between crisp slices OF
toast becomes a favorite sandwich.
Yet to many such camping picnic
Is still a mystery. simple though
Il can be made.
To the Camp Fire Girls and Girl
Scouts. the bob" is a most Inn
portant article in the camping
menu and its use can well be sug-
gested to weekend picnickers. A
bob" is a small piece OF some
thing roasted on a green stick over
a fire. It may be a slice OF
bread. a sausage, sliced bacon, an
apple. rnarshmallows, or an ear or
roasting corn. Even the amateur
NAV learn to prepare these simple
feasts over hot Goals. Campers are
too prone to depend upon the fry
ing pan and serve succession OF
fried bacon, stesxs, chops, etc.
These are delicious and yet should
be INDUCED in sparingly on account
Of the grease. To the Girl Scout
the Irabob suggests an unrivaled
treat. The simplest form of kabob
Is 4 small piece Of steak sufficient
for one serving, on the end Of q
green stick, broiled over glowing
Goals and eaten with bread and
butter. AS one becomes more
efficient. alternate bits Of steak and
bacon may be arranged on the
green stick and broiled in the same
way. TO many, this Is much easier
than broiling the whole steak on q
grfdiron and cutting it in servings
fhereafter.

THE SHEPHERD CASE
Indications Arc That Arguments Will Take up Reniainder of Day Judge To File Long Opinion.

Chicago, March 25.-Prospects at non today were that the arguments on the question of bail for William D. Shepherd, charged with the mur- der Of his foster son, William x. McClintock, by typhoid inoculation, would consume the remainder of the day.
 Judge Jacob M. Hopkins, chief justice Of the criminal court, hearing the application for freedom for Shepherd on bond, was prepared 10 deliver an oral decision if the argu- ments were not prolonged too late.
 Assistant States Attorney Thomas Marshall resumed his argument against bail, contending that nothing had been shown to support any req son why bail should he granted. He insisted yesterday that the testimony of the states vitncssns-who were called by the defense to show what they had testified before the grand jury which indicted Shepherd and C.. C. Faiman on the murder charge had not been Controvprted, but on the contrary had shown the proof 70 be evident and the presumption great as required by Illinois law in a case where bail is not permissible.
