'T|GERT DEPLORES
FIGHT FOR FUNDS
Says Position of School Su.
perintendent Least Envied,
Due to Procedure.

The position ot school Superin.
with the existing difficulties of getting
appropriations. is the least envied OF
any similar position anywhere else in
the country, declared United States
Commissioner of Education John J.
Tigert, in an address at the first Fall
meeting of the District of Columbia
Public School Association in the Dis.
trict Building last night.
Here, Commissioner Tigert said. the
school superintendent, in order to get
through appropriations has to go be-
fore the District Commissioners. the
Budget Bureau and Congress- any one
of which is likely TO cut out an item.
or even the President himself might
cut out some item. he added. The de-
sired appropriation is lost unless ap.
proved by all the bodies. he continued.
Mr.. Tigert launched into an attack
on the old principle of educational
problems being decided by personal
opinion.
The American public school system
Is the greatest in the world in every
respect, he said. adding that educa--
tion has made more progress in this
country within the past 10 years than
IT ever has made in any country dur
ing a similar period Of time.
After a lengthy discussion regarding
the employment of married women as
teachers in local public schools. reso
luton was adopted expressing the
opinion that no general rule should
be adopted to exclude them.
A resolution also was adopted to
refer to the committee on legislation,
George A. Warren, chairman. the
question of asking for reduced fares
on street railways for school chill
oren. Herbert S. Bryant. president of

Serve chops for dinner once in a
while-especially on the days when
you want something that is quickly
and easily cooked at the last minute.
You can choose mutton, lamb, veal,
or pork chops-whichever you can
get most easily, and you will have
further range Of choice since veal,
mutton, and lamb chops may be cut
from either the ribs or the loin, and
many butchers cut lamb and mutton
into shoulder and leg chops, also.
Any of these chops may be either
broiled or pan-broiled. They must be
cooked carefully to retain their juici-
ness and tenderness. Select chops
personally from good grade Of meat
Do not have them cut too thin or they
will tougher and dry out in cooking.
Chops three-fourths of an inch thick
are best when cooked. Sometimes it
is necessary to cut chops according
to the width of the rib or loin bones,
but If this results in thin chops, al
low two bones to each chop.
Start Dinner at Once.
Dinner should be served the moment
the chops are done, whichever way
they are cooked. IF you try to keep
chops warm after they are done to
turn they will be overlooked or
greasy. All vegetables and other
dishes should be timed slightly ahead
of the chops. Plates and the chop
platter should be very hot. Serve
current or other tart jelly or mint
Jelly with lamb or mutton chops.
Peas, fresh or canned, are often served
with lamb chops, but there Is no iron
clad rule requiring this combination,
and many other vegetables in season
will be equally enjoyed. Tradition
calls for applesauce with pork dishes,
including pork chops, but baked
apple, tomato, tart jelly, or any other
slightly acid food that offsets the rich

Really Mace Should
Produce an Affidavit

Mace Liverwurst was telling a
crowd in front of the blacksmith shop
about a cyclone he was In one time
at the close Of the Civil war. He said
1t was the worst wind and electrical
storm he ever saw, and that bolt Of
lightning killed big fat hog for him,
and the wind twisted 1t in such man
ner that the fat was rendered into
lard, a frying pan came bouncing
through the air and fell right side up
beside the hog SO that the rendered
lard ran into it.
Mace said about that time the wind
blew the feathers off a big spring
chicken and tore the chicken into
pieces, which fell into the pan Of
grease, the lightning set the grass
afire and the grease got hot and the
pieces of chicken in the skillet fried
nice and brown. When Mace hesitat-
ed, to take chew Of tobacco, all his
listeners left in disgust and as we
sauntered off we heard him say he
could prove 1t by dozen persons.
Mace can prove anything by his GRO

SUiss Chard Among Most
Satisfactory Vegetables

Swiss chard is one Of the most salts
factory of the green-leaf vegetables
available in the summer. The United
States Department Of Agriculture sug-
gests several ways Of preparing 1t:
Select fresh, crisp chard; If at all
wilted, crisp by allowing 1t to stand
in cold water for 10 to Is minutes.
Trim the leaves from the stalks, and
cut the stalks into inch pieces. Cook
for about 20 minutes In unsalted boil.
Ing water In an uncovered pan. Chop
the leaves and add them to the stalks
and continue the cooking until the
stalks are tender. Drain; season with
salt, little pepper, and butter, and
serve very hot.
An attractive dish can be made by
cooking the stalks and leaves of chard
separately, making cream sauce for
the stalks, and placing the seasoned
leaves around the edge Of the serving
dish. Another variation Is crisp bacon
chopped, and served on top of the
cooked chard. Or hard cooked egg
may be sliced and used to garnlsh the
top. Lemon juice and vinegar are
liked by many persons as season.

MATURITY AFFECTS
QUALITY OF CORN
Toughness Increases Rapid
" as Kernels Develop.

prepared by the United States Department
of Agriculture.)
Quality in canned sweet corn is due
to both factory and farm influences.
The conditions in the factory which
affect the quality of the canned prod
uct are generally understood, says the
United States Department Of Agricul-
ture, and canning methods are fairly
well standardized. Improvement In
canned sweet corn is most likely to be
brought about, therefore, by better
understanding of the factors on the
farm which make for better quality
of the raw material delivered to the
factory.
For several years G. A. Magoon and
G. w. Culpepper, of the department,
have been making a special study OF
the growing Of sweet corn to deter
mine the factors which have bearing
on it's quality. From the considerable
knowledge already gained 1t appears
that one Of the most important fac
tors Is the tenderness or toughness
of the kernel hull. This, they find,
varies to some extent with the differ
ent varieties, but is particularly af-
fected by the degree of maturity of
the corn. Toughness increases very
rapidly as the kernels develop toward
maturity, being most rapid during sea-
sons of high temperature. In cool
weather the increase is much less
rapid From the standpoint Of tough
ness the period during which first
quality corn can be packed Is very
short.
Consistency, sweetness and natural
flayors are likewise of Importance.
When corn is too mature the desir-
able flavor disappears and one less de-
sirable takes it's place. Tests have
shown that any of the standard va
rieties yield first-class product Ii
canned at the proper stage Of ma
turity.

The Hague, Utrecht and other places
also have important Jewish quarters.
In Amsterdam, however, the Jews
hold an extraordinarily prominent po-
sition. Three Of the six sheriffs are
Jewish, as is heavy representation
in the municipal council. Parliament
has many of them, including Henri
Polak, leader of the Socialist party
and president of the Diamond Work
ers' federation. State Councillors Wis.,
ser and Limburg, who formed an ex-

both Jews. A portion Of the Jews are
of Spanish and Portuguese origin,
their ancestors having come when the
Dutch republic freed Itself from Span

ness Of the pork may be served. Cat
sup or sweet pickle, or tomato OF
onion gravy-something with pro-
nounced flavor-combines well with
the mild flavor of veal chops.
The chief point about any method
of cooking chops is to scar the out
side at once at a high temperature
to prevent the juices from escaping
Then If they are to be cooked until
we'll done, as pork chops must be, the
temperature should be reduced and
chops allowed to cook slowly.
To broil chops in gas oven, put
them on the rack in the pan that
slides under the flame and turn them
several times. Many people think that
a chop broiled over live Goals or a
wood fire has no equal. For this q
creased wire broiler Is used. Pan
broiling Is done in heavy iron skill
let heated kissing hot. The chops are
put in, turned as soon as the under
surface Is scared, and scared on the
other side. Then turn them often, lift
ing them between two forks to avoid
piercing the surface and losing the
meat juice. They will be well done
in 10 or u minutes.
ePrevent Drying Out.
Tender veal chops are often pro-
tected from drying out by coating of
egg and bread crumbs. They are then
fried in deep or shallow fat. If veal
is dry or tough 1t must be cooked a
little differently to develop tenderness.
Dip the chops in flour and cook in
shallow fat until crust Is formed on
both sides. Then add hot water and
simmer the meat slowly until tender.
A rich brown gravy containing all
the goodness that cooks out of the
meat Is formed, and should be served
with the chops, slightly thickened If
necessary. Veal chops may be sea-
soned with lemon and worcestershire
sauce before cooking, to give more
zestful flavor.
