Miss Jane Adams.
In public statement Miss Jane
Adams of the Hull House, Chicago,
said: 81 am glad to see so many
young colored people attend these
meetings. That is as it should be.
Theirs is constant struggle and
they need such inspiration as this
conference gives
Negro Often Referred To.
Almost every speaker in citing a
demonstration incident would make
it Negro incident-never prefacing
with any leading Just state
ments. No noting of social condi-
tions or handicaps, but bits of wis
dom, of quick retort, or native humor
or fatalistic acceptance or response
to treatment, all were used, quite in
the manner that the result of a
medical experiment on a guinea pig
would be mentioned.
Many Negroes Attend.
There were many of us, quite i'm
possible to ascertain the number. We
were accepted as part of the
scheme, nothing special. There were
a few Negroes on the program, and
at those meetings there would be a
considerable number in attendance

spices, q little salt, two well-beaten
eggs and just -four enough with two
teaspoonfuls of baking powder to make
good batter. Steam four hours.
Warm up when needed and serve with
any good pudding sauce.
Boiled Dinner.-Take pound or
two of corned beef, a half-pound of
fat salt pork, fresh pork or hooks,
and put to cook in cold water, with a
kettle full of water. Cook for an hour
or two after reaching the simmering
point before adding the following vege-
tables: Slices of rutabagas, small car
rots, cabbage head or two (plenty Of
cabbage is always liked; cook for an
hour or two before adding the pota-
toes. Then cook another hour. Onions
may be added If liked "a half dozen
small ones), making another vegetable,
and the flavor seasons the whole. Serve
the sliced rutabagas around the edge
Of the large platter, then the onions,
making another row; then the cab
bage with the carrots radiating from
that, topping all with the meat. Such
dish will be good for dinner, and will
reheat as hash, making most tasty
luncheon dish. The soup may be
saved and served reheated for the be-

chopped and added to the hash, will
make change in flavor and coloring.
TamaIes.-Boil fowl until tender,
salt and season with onion or garlic
while cooking. Remove the meat from
the bones and chop fine, add bit of
garlic and a generous quantity of
cayenne pepper. Make a thick paste

the finger and incase each In the corn
meal paste. Wrap each tamale In the
inner husk of corn, tie with a strip Of
corn husk and drop the tamales into
chicken stock to cook with two or
three Mexican peppers. Cook fifteen
minutes. Serve piping hot.

so many events and too few Of us to

such quick succession and there was
