BY SISTER MARY

BREAKFASTS bananas and
strawberries with cereal and cream,
poached eggs on graham toast, milk,
coffee.
LUNCHEON-Dipl pie, gra-
ham bread and butter sandwiches,
fruit salad, rolled oats cookies, milk,
tea
DINNER-Roast leg Of lamb, mint
sauce, new potatoes in cream sauce,
buttered peas and carrots, asparagus
salad, pineapple sherbet, sunshine
cake, milk, coffee.
The diplomatic pie is just a glori-
fed arrangement of left-overs. 1t
can be served in individual baking
dishes or one large one. The house
keeper who manages her left-overs
cleverly can afford better food to be-
gin with than the one who wastes
what is left after each meal.
DIPLOMATIC PIE
One cup diced leftover meat, 1 cup
diced carrots, u cup tiny onions,
y cup strained canned tomatoes,
9 cups mashed potatoes, tablespoon
butter, hteaspoon salt, 2 table
spoons milk, white 1 egg.
Combine meat, carrots, onions and
tomato juice. Add boiling water to
cover and simmer until tender. If
the vegetables have not been previ-
ously cooked they should be almost
tender before adding the meat. Sea-
son mixture with salt and pepper
and thicken with flour stirred to a
smooth paste with a little cold water.
1t will probably take about L table
spoonful of flour to thicken the
LIQUID to the consistency of gravy.
Season hot mashed potatoes with
butter, salt and milk and fold in the
egg white beaten until stiff and dry.
Put the meat and vegetable and
gravy mixture into a buttered bak-
ing dish, cover with prepared pota-
toes and bake in moderately hot
oven until the potato mixture pAffs
and browns on top.

TRUSTEE TO
WARONGAY
PEDAGOGUE
No FIapper or Sheik Teach
erS in North Webster;
No, Sir!

BU Times Special
WARSAW, Ind, May 20.--Milo
Strombeck, new trustee Of Tippe-
canoe Township, Kosciusko County,
believes in modest and old-fashioned
teachers.
The modern f1apper and sheik are
barred by the trustee and none will
be employed by him for the school
year of 1929. The trustee en-
ploys ten teachers and lives in
North Webster.
II will not have a school teacher
that uses tobacco, intoxicating IL
quors, or who attends the so-called
modern Dances" Strombeck said.
Speaking of the ultra extreme
fashions In women's dress the trus-
tee said;
women teachers in the North
Webster and Tippecanoe schools
must not use rouge, lip sticks, and
they must be modest in dress. No
teacher will be employed who uses
paint and whose dresses are high
err than six inches below the knees.
We want teachers who will COM
mand the respect Of the community
and who are proper guardians and
instructors for our youth in these
days of hip TASKS cigaret smok-
ing women and the so-called ultra
modern faddists.
Some changes were made by me
on this account, but Of course in
some instances there were other
reasons and also some Of our teach
ers resigned to accept an advance
ment in other places. / am de-
termined that next year there shall
be no cause of complaint on the
grounds just mentioned"

BIZ Times Special
CHICAGO. May 13.-Lullabys that
WOO the babies of America to sleep
are available for the same purpose
for those grown-ups with troubled
thoughts, somnambulism or sleep
lessness. according to Warner S.
Hays. secretary, Clock Manufacture
ers Association of America, here.
For Every Occasion
"a clock which sings thee sleep
less to dreamland has been invented
by a German scientist" said Hays.
THUS is reached the American ideal
of a clock for every room and for
every occasion. The sleep-inducing
clock plays >the cradle songs which
mothers sing to their babies, but
with a monotonous, humming noise
which chases away all sleep-robbing
thoughts.
Sleeper UnawalIened
1.-THE humming stops within forty
five minutes, but gradually, so as not
to awaken the sleeper. The CLOCK
iself is a regular timepiece with the
humming equipment attached. Thus
we have the grandfather clock Tor
the hall. the grandmother clock Tor
the living room. the dining room
clock. the small, round kitchen clock
the alarm clock for awakening pur-
poses. and now the humming CLOCK
for sleeping purposes. IruIS >
America has adopted the vogue OF a
clock 70 every room in the house
and for every occasion"
