Obligingly Menjou assumed a

his heart, cleared his throat and let
fly a baritone barrage that was quite
pleasing.

PLAN -.
OUTLINED BY
ttc
e CHURCH HEAD

An important announcement has
just been made by Bishop McGov-
ers, head of the Catholic diocese of
Cheyenne, which embraces the whole
state of Wyoming. A home for de-
pendent children, with a capacity of
two hundred, will be erected at Tor
%rington. in Goshen county, at a cost
of three hundred thousand dollars.
Thus far, a corporations has been
formed under the name Icofu st. Jo-
seph's Orphanage. aivfine farm of
ninety acres. all under irrigation, has
been purchased, and the clergy of
the diocese have pledged ten thous-
and dollars to the building fund.
The %orphanage will be placed in
charge of Cotholic Sisters, who will
care for their wards without pay,
thereby %ensuring most economical
management. Children of any and
every faith will be received. There
are now almost eighty children from
Wyoming in Denver Catholic orphan
ages. and one third of these are not
Catholics. A conservative estimate
would place the number of Wyo-
ming orphans being cared for out
side the state at not less than one
hundred.
AT present it is proposed to erect
the first unit. which, with laundry
and heating plant, will cost approx
mately one hundred and seventy-five
thousand dollars; and a campaign to
raise this amount will be made among
the Catholics of the state from Sep.
TENDER 9Th to 18th. Bishop McGov-
ern will welcome contributions from
all charitably disposed persons, and
will deeply appreciate their coopera-
ton.
: 1t is hoped that in the curse of
time an industrial school for boys
may be established in connection with
the new institutions; this is men,

CHICAGO
SAYS RODEOS ARE
CRUEL TO ANIMALS

The city of Chicago, which holds
the undisputed murder. rape and
robbery record, is aghast over the
wild west rodeo which is being held
there in anticipation of having that
city of blood and ~stockyards become
the center of all such celebrations in
the future.
A writer, in telling of the storm
of protest, says that a howl of pro-
test hat makes the kicks of English
societies against the Rodeo at the
Wembley exposition sound mild, has
failed to register effectively to cause
a tanning down of the animal stunts
at the Chicago exposition.
Women's clubs, humane societies
from one corner of the world to the
other, individuals and some publica-
lions, joined in the fight to put an
end to what they termed the ''atro-
cious bull fight"
Cruelty to animals, through the
use of painful methods to make them
wild, was charged.
The protest against the rodeo be
came organized with an effort to
draw churches into the fight against
it in the thought hat If the show
were ended, the task of eliminating
them in other parts of the country
would be less difficult.
Judging by the apparent disinter-
estedness Of the public in the move
to end the wild west stunts. their
future seems to be in little danger.
Charges of cruelty to animals have
all been denied by participants in
the rodeo, who claim that the horses
are all wild cayuses, naturally un-
truly. without needing artificial slim
ulants to make them act up.
-piInsteadl of being suppressed by
ORGANIZED opposition to them, pro-
moterslIot the rodep say that their
type of wild west entertainment is
growing in popularity. The battle
against them is growing at the same
time, however, with humane societies
organizing their forces in an effort
to put an end to the exhibitions.

Group the equipment in the
kitchen into working centers for
preparing raw food, cooking, serv-
ing, and dish-washing. Clutter and
confusion can thus be avoided.
Store food supplies as near the
food preparation center as pos
sible in cupboards or receptacles
proof against dust and household
pests.
Provide means for good light at
all centers by night as well as
day. Kitchen work does not end
at shutdown, and the kitchen, just
as much as any other room, needs
adequate artificial lighting.
Ventilate the kitchen thoroughly
so as to carry off odors Of cook.

temperature.
Choose finishes for floor, walls,
and woodwork that are easy to
keep clean, durable, and pleasing
to the eye.
Provide a generous supply Of
hot and cold running water and
a sanitary method for disposing
of waste and garbage. No other
one feature in a kitchen can
equal this in labor saving.
Set sink, work table, and other
large equipment at such height
that the worker does not have to

dishes are hot and cold dishes are
cold, and in some cases whether
there is an appetizing variety in
the meals, depends in large meas.
ure on kitchen facilities.
Below are some Of the high
points in planning kitchens for
convenience. These can be
adapted to almost any kitchen,
large or small. Though the de-
tailed arrangement OF every
kitchen is more or less a problem
itself, the general scheme remains
the same because the chief work
in all Is preparing and serving
food and washing dishes and
utensils.
Study the relation of the
kitchen to the other rooms. Sat
isfactory food service depends ON
a good connection between dining
room and kitchen. Also there
should be easy access to front
and back doors and to cellar and
pantry.
Make In the connecting wall a
two-way cupboard for storing
china and passing food and dishes
between kitchen and dining room.
If possible, have sink adjoining
this cupboard on the kitchen siGe
so that within the space of a
few square feet dishes and silver
can be washed and returned for
use at the next meal.
