Matters Pertaining to House !.

WITH the fruit season open
W ing the desire for shortcakes
is q natural one and one that
may be freely INDUCED in once
the simple trick of making short
cakes quickly Is learned.
This method eliminates rolling
pin, bread board and much extra
manipulation, 1t also makes it
possible to make a shortcake for
just two people without making
the traditional affair Of family
size, which always means q left
over, that is. undesirable.
The secret Is this: Just stir
the shortcake up and bake II as
you would muffins in muffin
pans. You can make q softer
and richer dough; you don't need
to roll it out, and If the tops Of
the shortcakes aren't smooth.
what does it matter? They win
be covered with fruit, and prob.
ably whipped cream, so that
smoothness really makes no diff
ference.
Service Is simple: Just break
the cake in two. drop bit OF
butter in, add the crushed and
sweetened fruit, put the top back
on and finish with more fruit and
cream, and each person has com.
plete shortcake all his own, ond the
attractiveness is complete in each
serving. Tins Of tea cake or n1uf-
fin size may be used.
To vary the recipe take any
standard shortcake recipe, such
as the one given here, which
by the way. is based on the the
ory that every one really prefers
the old-fasMoned shortcake. which
Is slightly richer and slightly
sweeter than biscuit dough, but
is decidedly not of cake mix
ture such as the moderns try to
serve US for shortcake. For just
two people use one-half cup Of
flour and cut the rest of the
recipe one-fourth accordingly.
It's even possible to make a
single shortcake for the bachelor

nF all phases Of friendship and

Maybe your yes Is ready and

Such happy, carefree days Of

No matter how close the At.

love should it offer and promise

man and girl should feel free TO

Otherwise, unhappy marriages
would certainly result. For old

to be recognized as q prior claim

it her duty to wed 8 man she

first Jewish cemetery ever permitted
under Maryland law still lies in the
heart of a business district here
saved from destruction at the hands
of progress by Miss Eleanor Cohen,
81, lone surviving descendant Of a
noted Jewish family.
The plot was first set aside as n
burying ground for his family by
Solomon Etting, noted in the affairs
of Maryland century ago, after he
had received a deed Of land from the
famous Charles Carroll. Previous TO
that time, by state law, Jews had
been denied the right to own a ceme-
terry.
The cemetery. which shelters the
remains Of 10 members of the Etting
family. is shut off from the view OF
passersby by large motion-picture
house. It Is said the owners several
time have offered TO purchase the
land and move the bodies. but Miss
Cohen has steadfastly refused.

ITO MILES AN HOUR
ON ITALIAN TRAIN

Rome, March 21.-Complete plans
for the organization of an electric
railway to connect Genoa, Milan and
Turin are under consideration by
Premier Mussolini as president of the
council. The proposed line will run
at a speed OF 110 miles an hour-un-
equaled by any other train in Italy.
BY this projected rapid-transit
line 1t will be possible to travel from
Turin to Milan in 81 minutes, the
train making but two stops on the
way. Very little longer will be re-
quired for the trip from either of
these cities TO Genoa.
If the plan works out as It's ori-
ginators hope, the line will be con-
tinued through Genoa to Spezia, Pisa
and finally to Rome. In this case
the present running time of seven
hours from Pisa to Rome will be cut
down to four hours.
