DESIRABLE SOUPS FOR SCHOOL LUNCHES

Wash and dry the greens, ana put
them through the food chopper with
the bread and onion, using the finest
blade. If the green's are cut or torn
into small pieces and mixed with the
crumbs, the bread is not so likely to
form hard masses. A little of the
bread should be put through last to
push out the green's. Add the chopped
green's and bread to the milk, and If
practicable let stand half hour Or
more to soften the bread. Heat to
boiling point and cook for about two
minutes Add the fat and salt. A
tablespoonful of lemon juice improves
the flavor and somewhat increases the
amount OF vitamine.
Old spinach may need to be cooked
in little water before the milk is
added. Whenever part milk and part
water must be used in making the
soup, the green's should be cooked in
sthe water first, but only long enough to
soften them. This amount will serve
six portions.

Of thanks to the vogue for simple

wrecking during their earliest years
seem to grow even more busy In the

signed for them to stand any amount

as active as little boys and all their

FOR GIRLS FROM SIX TO TEN;
ACCESSORIES ARE IMPORTANT

1t all the time for, out Of the realm of
fancy, their designers bring new con.
ceptions to make them decorative and
ingenious. Handkerchiefs gloves
neckwear, bags, footwear and mil
linery grow more and more Interesting.
In gloves the demand for fancy
wrists and cuffs continues both in kid
and fabric varieties, although the
plain glove comes somewhere near to
sharing popularity with these newer
types. The long silk gloves for spring
have tucks, lace inserts, embroidery,
little frills and wrist straps among
their attractions, presaging the COM
ing Of, more or less, short-sleeved
frocks. Two Of these pretty and very
practical designs are shown here.

the variety in gloves and women ara
exacting about their fit, which means
that no one wears them too small or
too large: Gloves for motoring fit
loosely and are made with gauntlet or
mousquetaire wrists, sometimes en-
broidered in silk. They are usually
closed with slide fastening, easily adj
justed and comfortable, but on street
gloves the snap fastening remains most
popular.

HOW TO SOLVE A CROSSWORD PUZZLE
ONCE GOOD MONEY,
NOW WASTE PAPER

Dealers in old paper take notice !
The Jugoslay government has fifteen
carloads of waste paper for sale. 1t
Is all that is left of billions of AustrO-
Hungarian bank notes, called in and
replaced by dinar notes. Jugoslavia
was constructed out Of Serbia and sew
eral parts of the old Austro-H ungar-
ian empire. Along with the increase
in territory Jugoslavia inherited an
inflated currency. First the bank notes
circulated on a basis reduced from
the inflated value, and later were
stamped. Afterward the stamped notes
were exchanged on basis of four
crowns for one dinar. Now dinars cir
culate throughout Jugosavia, and
Austrian crowns are not legal tender.
Exports are greater than imports and
the dinar shows a tendency to appre-
ciate. The Jugoslavs like their dinars
and do not mourn the crown. The ma
tional bank officials found that the old
crown bank notes we're taking too
much space, consequently they are to
be disposed of as old paper-ffteen
carloads of them. 1t is not often that
SO much money goes so cheaply.

JAPANESE REPORT
SURGICAL TRIUMPH

Doctor Komi, director of the Darien
general hospital at Darien, Manchu
ria, has reported the successful result
of two operations in which the entire
stomachs of two japanese patients
were removed, according to the Kansas
City Star.
The operations, made more than
year ago, were for cancer, and in both
cases the stomachs were removed and
the outlets connected directly with the
iHtestines. Both the patients left the
hospital in three weeks. One is still
alive and the other died recently of
cold in the head. His death was not
due to the loss Of his stomach. Doctor
Komi told the result of the unusual
operations to the japanese national
medical conference at Tokyo.

Imported Insect Pests

Millions of dollars now are being
spent annually to control plant dis
eases and insect pests in this coun-
try, and prevent the entry of others
from foreign lands.
The federal horticultural board OF
the Department of Agriculture, which
has this work in hand, estimates that
from 50 to 90 per cent of the real in
sect pest problems are due to foreign
importations. Prominent among the
insects are the gypsy and brown-tail
moth, which entered from Europe; the
Japanese beetle, from Japan; the cot
ton boil weevil, from Mexico; the
European corn borer, from Europe.
and the San Jose scale. from China.

employed and Brena answered that
she would try to leave an hour earlier
than usual so that she could come at
four.

Fires in Forests

1t is not practicable to equip forests
with lightning rods No remedy is now
in sight for disastrous forest fires due
to lightning, such as have occurred on
a vast scale in the western states dur
ing the last season, says Nature Mag
azine of Washington. When lightning
strikes a tree the ordinary result Is to
splinter the wood or strip off bark
through the sudden generation of
steam. In the great majority of cases
the tree is not set on fire. Neverthe-
less the aggregate number OF forest
fires started by lightning is, in many
parts of the country, greater than the
number due to all other "a ses com
bined.

Famous Falls

The Victoria falls are on the mid
die Zambesi in Rhodesia, Africa, a
few miles below the Kwando conf1u-
ence. The river here, nearly mile
wide, suddenly plunges to depth Of
400 feet and within 200 feet of the
falls the river suddenly narrows to
a width of 100 to 400 feet. A dense
cloud of vapor rises far above the
falls and as it condenses it darkens
to the appearance of smoke. Because
of this fact the natives call the falls

spanning the gorge, railroad bridge,
a marvel of engineering skill, was

was given to the falls by Livingstone,
who discovered them in 1855.

Hard TO Fit

A city man, driving his automobile
along little-used country road, heard
something rattle beneath his car,
stopped, looked back and saw bright
metal object lying in the road a short
distance behind. It was a plowpoint,
evidently lost by some farmer.
1t was fully half an hour before the
next car came along, and it's occupant,
seeing the first man fiat on his back
under his vehicle by the roadside,
stopped and asked what the trouble
was.
The city man emerged and held mp
the plowpoint.

car" he said, "and I've been hunting
for half an hour to find out where u
belongs. Exchange
