used as it will vary with its richness.
The following ig a doughnut recipe
which has been worked out and tested
and found to be the "best ever" If
the directions are carefully followed
the cakes will be rich without soaking.
tender and very moist This kind will
keep without drying out
Best-Ever Doughnuts.-Beat two
eggs in an aluminium bowl, add one
and two-thirds cupfuls of sugar and
beat until the sugar is well dissolved,
then add half teaspoonful of salt
and one and one-fourth cupfuls of thick
sour milk with a teaspoonful of soda
well dissolved in it; then one-fourth
cupful of rich thick sour cream, so
thick that spoon when dipped into it
will stay well heaped with the cream.
Powdered mace or grated nutmeg
makes the best flavor. Vanilla never
seems to be an appropriate flavor for
doughnuts, and never, If you must use
vanilla, use the substitute commonly
called vanillin; 1t spoils the flavor of
any food. Now the aluminium dish is
set directly on the ice after just enough
flour has been added to make a thick
mixture that will still stir with the
spoon. The secret of moist, tender and
altogether delicious dOughnutS is to
cut them as moist as possible. The
chilling process makes them easy to
handle with no more flour Work
quickly, have the fat just right and
carry the cakes to the fat on a broad
knife, so they will not lose their
shape; being soft they are hard to
handle. This makes three dozen dough-
nuts cut in the usual size.
Sour Cream Dressing for Salads
Add a tablespoonful of any good salad
dressing to cupful of thick sour
cream, mix until well blended, add
such seasonings as onion juice, red pep
per or any chopped green pepper and
onion with a bit of fresh red pepper
With this as foundation one may
vary it to suit any salad. For cucum-
bers add bit of vinegar; also for
chopped or shredded cabbage.
Sour Cream Cake FiIing.-Cook to-
gether one cupful each of sour cream
and brown sugar; when thick, add one
cupful of hickory nut meats and beat
until stiff enough to spread on the
cake. Add any favoring desired;
maple is especially good with this fill
ing.

Chiffon Coat Motif Is
Elaborated in Beige

For early autumn the chiffon coat
motif is being elaborated in beige, gold
brown and the new ashes of roses
shade almost exclusively. Trimmed
deliberately, especially on the wide
sleeves, with lace or insertions of
putting, these coats are worn with Sc
verely plain dresses to match, designed
for the most part only to display the
wraps to the best advantage. The
style is chiefly intended for the

type, in two Of the three that the Paris
dressmaker recognizes The "jeune

principally, for her coat, to black chif-
fon, tucked, the sleeves heavy with
cording. Very effective over brilliant

Peaches are usually dried unpealed,

brown and all its kindred headed the

shades and featuring it along with
other and more vivid blues. After all,

If peaches are dried in the sun, cov-

protect from insects the same as with
other kinds of fruit In an artificially
heated drier the temperature at the
beginning of drying should not be

gradually increased to 100 degrees.

leathery and no moisture can be
pressed out of the freshly cut surface,
the product is sufficiently dry. Trans

always be reserved and used but care
fully strained The amount of oysters
to serve depends upon the number to
serve and their fondness for the shell
fish. Enough should be used to give
the broth a flavor; many like the broth
who care little for the oyster.
Drop the oysters into the strained
oyster liquor, adding enough cold wa
ter to cook the oysters until their
edges curl. Remove them to the soup
tureen, adding plenty of butter and
salt and pepper to taste. To the hot
liquor add fresh scalded milk, pour
over the oysters and serve at once
Too long cooking of the oysters will
make them tough and too little will
make them most unpalatable. Serve
at once with crisp oyster crackers.
Grilled Oysters.--Put a large piece
of butter into hot pan; when smok-

them a sauce made by using the liquor
from the oysters, thickened with flour
and butter well blended. Season with
worcestershire sauce, salt and cayenne
and serve on buttered toast.
Fried oysters.--Drain and wipe the
oysters dry, roll in cracker crumbs

into egg which has been beaten with
a tablespoonful of milk, then dip
again into cracker crumbs Fry quick

Colonial Cabbage.-Shred hard
head of cabbage which has been al

well and add sweet cream, using
enough to moisten the cabbage, few
tablespoonfuls of sugar. a little salt
and just enough vinegar to give zest
to the dressing.
Grated carrot, chopped celery with
a few minced nuts, mixed with a good
salad dressing makes a good salad or

for wear with one of the new knit
ted outer coats than the latest nov
city in headgear, knitted straw. The
dnely plated strands of which these
Partisan hats are composed, are
knitted into shape and offer tie same

fabrics do to woven cloth. Whether
the vogue for these hats will last or
not is question, but for the moment
they are the rage because of their
originality.

Stuff the peppers with a mixture of

Is the only way cucumbers appear on
the table. Cooked cucumbers are
equally good in a different way, and
to those who have not tried them they
will seem like a newly discovered
vegetable.
The United States Department of
Agriculture says to peel and slice or
quarter the cucumbers, removing the
seeds if they are large. Then boil in
little water, sailed to taste, for 5 or
10 minutes. Serve them buttered, with
a little minced parsley, or in a cream
sauce, plain or savory, or one with
grated cheese in it.
Try baking cucumbers, after peeling
and slicing them. Use either custard
cups or single baking dish, and cook
them alone or combine them with a
little celery or cooked carrots or other
vegetable. Cover them with a vegeta-
BILE stock or with tomato juice, adding
buttered crumbs or grated cheese, or
both, on top.

1t cannot be denied that there is
force in the accusation so often made
that citizens of the District of Co
lumbia are lacking in civic pride and
do not interest themselves in the
betterment of civic affairs. This
condition is due in the main to the
absence of opportunity of the citizens
of Washington to participate in their
own government. Nearly 100000
people living in the District at this
time were born here and We're edu-
Gated or are being educated in the
public schools where the study of
civil government is purely an dca-
delnic proposition. They have not
been graduated from youth into re-
sponsible citizenship. Herin lies one
OF the causes for the lack of civic
spirit and one of the factors of the
present deplorable situation and of
future danger. The abbreviated citi-
zenship of the District, which those
of is deplore who have come from
states where We had fun political
rights, has operated to modify civic
patriotism and to encourage the
human weakness which prompts us
to let George do it"

is obvious, as the result of expert
ence in municipal governments every
where, that small bodies of qualified
representatives operate for greatest
efficiency. / take it, therefore, that
what our Commissioners or city man
ayers really want is a committee of
citizens that will act in an advisory
capacity to them in their important
work of administering the affairs
of the District, this advisory COM
mittee to be chosen from the mem
bership of the neighborhood citizens
associations.
Doubts have been voiced by some
delegates to the federation of the
wisdom of establishing this council
or advisory committee. These doubts
seemed to be based upon the feeling
that these delegates have-that the
creation of such committee will
in some way initiate against the
movement to secure representation in
Congress for the citizens of the Dis
trfct. Let me say right here that if
L were convinced that the creation
OF an advisory committee would tend
TO obstruct the movement for repre-
sentatfon or to prevent it's accom-
plishment, ] would turn about face
at once and oppose this advisory
council, for l believe that representa-
ton in Congress for the District and
the right to vote for presidential
electors is the most vital undertaking

citizens associations
Old Slogan Still Potent.
l am unable to appreciate the OH
lection raised to the proposed coun-
Gil on this account. On the contrary,
1t appears to me that closer co-opera
ton between the Commissioners and
properly selected small group Of
representative citizens will empha-
size the needs of representation in
suit in making the Commissioners our
this great reform. No matter what
additional powers may be delegated
to the Commissioners by the Con-
gress, the more intimately the Com
missioners are brought in touch with
the citizenship will they be impressed
with the desirability OF joining with
us in the demand for representation in
Congress. The powerful slogan. "No
taxation without representation" has
