BETTER ENGLISH.

Realizing that the average person
is judged nine times out Of ten by
his spoken English after his school
days are over, the teachers of the
English department this year are
stressing oral composition and bet
ter English for immediate use. The
mastery of English must be acquired
through self-cultivation, and it is
with this end in view that the cur
rent event lessons and oral English
work are being planned.
In the written work, at least one
weekly theme is required from all
students. The school newspaper,
published twice month, furnishes
a strong incentive for original
stories, poems, school news items
and write-ups of the various school
activities. Five book reports, in the

What is proved to be record time in getting a moose by a big game hunter is revealed in the trip of Thomas K. Fitzgerald of Pocatelo, Idaho, who returned to Seward We'd nesday after hunting on Juneau Flats, in company with Mel A. Horner, guide.
 MT. Fitzgerald, who is hotel man of Pocatello, arrived in Alaska Saturday and had but one week in which to secure a trophy of the chase. Saturday evening Dr. Baugh- man got MT. Fitzgerald in touch with Mr. Horner and the party left Sew ard Sunday at a. m and returned at D. m Wednesday, bringing back moose head which is a fine speci- men, having a spread of 58 inches and 25 points.
 The hunt was started on Juneau Flats, about five miles out from Sew ard, and it required but one day to bag the trophy; it was packed out the next, and the party was ready to start home the day following
 MT. Fitzgerald expressed himself as highly pleased with his hunt. Ac- companying him to Alaska are two friends, Vernon Eachus and Harry Jurgins, who say they are also we'll pleased with Alaska and may remain and become sourdoughs.

MILK
FOR PASTRY
MAKING
Cake Making Simple Task
Since New Methods
Introduced.

There are many ways in which the
busy housewife can simplify and min
imize the burdens of her day. All
household tasks are important, and
most of them necessary. but numerous
valuable aids are at the housewifes
beck and call, IL she will but avail
herself Of them. In cooking, for in
stance, SO much time is necessarily
consumed in the preparation Of the
substantial parts of a meal, that there
is little time or strength left for the
supplementary parts, such as salads
and desserts. Yet these need not be
a burden.
Cake baking, for example, used to
be q rather burdensome undertaking
and often to the weary housewife seem.
ed to be the "onc straw" too much
after a busy day Of cleaning, or iron
ing, or cooking the substantial dishes
of the three meals. But, now that so
many Of the things which go into the
making Of a cake may be had in pre-
pared form, ready to use at a mo-
ment's notice, no one minds beating
up cake to be served as dessert for
dinner, or for 5 o'clock tea when I'M
expected guests drop in.
II the larder happens to be short
of milk, there is no need to send
out for il. IL the housewife is one
of those wise ones who keeps an ade-
quatc and varied stock of prepared
foods, including powdered or evapor-
atcd milk, on her pantry shelf. Pow
dered milk is carefully inspected and
pastcurized milk which has then been
dehydrated (water removed. 1t re-

IUSE POWDERED MILK
IN STANDARD CAKE

A good, standard cake may be
made by dreaming together IL cup
butter and 1 cup sugar; adding
beaten yolks of 8 eggs; sitting 1 cup
flour with 8 teaspoons baking pow
der. and stirring these in alternately
with IL cup of reliquified powdered
milk. Add l teaspoon vanilla, and
fold in the egg whites beaten very
stiff. Bake in moderate oven. in
layer or loaf-cake tin. Or. evaporat-
cd milk may be used. This, also, is
pure whole milk from which n large
part of the water has been removed
and which has been processed in such
way as TO retain its purity. 1t needs
only to be diluted with an equal part
of water to have a milk equal in
richness to fluid milk Of standard
quality.
The powdered milk may be used to
make a good chocolate fudge FROST
ing, thus: ] IL cups brown sugar,
. tablespoons syrup, / tablespoon but
ter, IL cup reliquified powdered milk,
| square chocolate. Cook slowly for
fifteen minutes. or until it forms
soft ball when dropped in cold water.
Cool for ten minutes and beat until
creamy.
Whipped cream may be made from
evaporated milk and poured over
plain cake. This is done by cooking
the milk in a double-boiler for five
minutes. stirring constantly; then
cool (olso stirring). and set on ice
until ready for whipping. Canned
pineapple may be used in either the
filling, or in the cake. itself. Cocoa
nut, moist or dry, comes ready TO
mix with boiled icing, or to Use in
the cake batter itself. A ready-made
marshmallow filling also comes in
cans.
