This afternoon when ma came home
sed, Hay ma, whats you think, got

And I run up in my room and got It,
being little ice cream freezer, saying,
Here you are, ma, amt that swell, some
man rang the bell and left it for you
free of charge for nuthing, you don't
half to tern it or anything, you just

all by itself, amt that swell, ma?
But what are you tawking about, you
say some man left it for me as a pres
emit? ma sed, and I sed, Yes nam,
some man with little pointy mustash.
Don't be silly, men don't do that sort
of thing, ma sed, and sed, Well this
one did, ma, he had lot of them in
a automobeel. he sed you could have
your choice of this or clock so took
this for you because you got lot Of
clocks and you dident have any ice
GREEN freezer, hows that for bargain
to get for nuthing, ma?
And you meen to say he dident wunt

not like in the way of food, and how
he wants 1t prepared.
For, she is happy to state, Mr.. Hoover
never once complained of her cooking
in the eight years of her service at the
street home. Only once in that time
did he make a request, and then he
asked to have his eggs cooked little
harder.
Ham omelet la Hoover, as prepared
by Mrs. Rattley. is as follows:
Take six eggs and beat them all to-
gether. You need not salt, for the ham
does that. Add three tablespoons of
cream and cook slowly In a we'll but
put under toaster flame about three
minutes. Then lay the ground ham
already heated in a line across the
omelet's diameter. and roll up without
too much handling, as you would a
jelly roll. Surround it with a tasteful
fringe of the remaining ham.
You must be artistic about laying
the ham in and rolling the omelet,"
she warns.
On Sunday mornings President
Hoover likes sausage and scrambled
eggs and fried hominy.
II was always very particular about
the hominy," Mrs. Rattley continued.
Il would insist on whole grains, washed
and drained and rolled in cream and
sprinkled with little -four and
Drowned in butter"
The President is fond of many other
things. In fact, Mrs. Rattley says he
likes everything that is good and good
for him. Berries with cream, vanilla
ice cream and watermelon appeal to his
taste. And pie of any kind. Cold sliced
lamb surrounded by parsley with jelly
in the center Is luncheon dish that
finds favor with him.
At first Mrs. Rattley thought she
couldn't give any of Hoovers pet dish
es for she is not like many other cooks.
She does not say three teaspoons of
this or cup of that. When we sug-
gested that perhaps she cooked in
tuitionally, she was quick with the
reply: :.
mo, scientifically. I have studied 1t
all my life and I love to cook"
Next to her pride in having pleased
the President with her cooking. she is
fappiest over the fact that she once
prepared a meal for Col. Charles Lind
bergh.

ment shows more interest In the welfare

That may have been true at one time.
1t certainly cannot be said now. II you
have any doubts. then trouble yourself
to do a little investigating. It is amaZ-

does love your child.
There is here in washington a divi-
sion Of Government called the Bureau
of Home Economics. 1t is the business
of the people in this bureau to know
things about children and act on that
knowledge.
For example, after an exhaustive
study there was brought forth a gar
ment known as sun suit. It is for
small children and designed to expose
to the sunlight as much of the body as
possible, and at the same time afford
proper protection to the youngster.
At the present the bureau Is looking
into this business Of buttons and but
tonholes. Observations are being made
easiest for tiny fingers to manipulate
and where buttons may be most con-
veniently placed.
Elastic bands and tightly gathered
romper legs disappeared after an edict
from the bureau. War has been declar-
ed on collars. Ample pockets are being
encouraged.
Nor is this bureau the only depart

There is new high chair With an

Then there is crib having a cover

Everyday Law Cases
When May Seller Rely on Dealers
Representation as to Age OF
Car Being Sold?
BY THE COUNSELLOR.

Samuel Lake paid $4,000 for motor
truck that was represented to be a 1917
model. Later Lake found that the
truck was in reality built in 1918 and
he thereupon demanded that the seller
make a reduction in price. This the
seller refused to do, contending that
Lake could himself have ascertained the
the correct year of the model and it was
his own fault if he failed to do SO.
Lake instituted suit and at the trial
proved that the seller of the truck had
promised to ascertain the correct year
of the model of the truck and that he
was, Therefore, entitled to reply on the
representation that was made to him.
He further proved that the difference in
value between 1917 truck and 1918
truck was $3.50.
Lake was awarded verdict for the
damages he claimed, the court stating
Where the seller of a truck promised
to find out when the truck was built,

formation the buyer. as matter Of
law, had right to rely on his repre-

A Sermon for Today
A Heaven Beyond.
; BIZ ROBERT CULLEN.

Text: 1.-THE foxes have holes, and
the birds of the air have nests; but the
son of man hath not where to lay his
head. Matt, viii20.
The fox is satisfied. The bird is sat-
isfied. All animal creatures have their
places of abode. and with these places
they are perfectly satisfied. They ex-
perience no feeling of discomfort. The
OK finds its heaven in its stall, and the
hearthstone is sufficient heaven for
the cat. The sphere In which these
creatures exist corresponds with their
nature, and answers to their capacity.
They never improve their sphere, and
have no sense of desire for higher
sphere.
Contrast with this the discomfort and
unsatisfled warnings of man. The ami
mai is at home in his world, but man
is not. Nothing in his life quite salts
fies him While every other creature
finds the limits of its growth here be-
low. man looks forward to growth
which extends beyond the limits pos
sible to him here. He is conscious OF
a capacity which is not met in his pres
ent environment. His present sphere
and circumstances do not answer to the
aspirations of his heart. Christ por-
trayed this discomfort on mans
part when He said: 1.-THE foxes have
holes. and the birds of the air have
their nests; but the son Of man hath
not where to lay his head"
What is the answer to this feeling?
Can it be that man shall never find a
place where he can lay his head and
be content? Our hearts tell us that we
were made to be satisfied. Surely we
shall not be forever denied that which
is not denied to Gods other creatures
Since earth affords us no heaven, there
must be for us a heaven beyond.

ALASKAN HOSPITAL IS SUPPORTED N
 MEMORY SAINT
BECAME NUN AT AGE OF 15.; DIED IN 1927 WHEN 24 YEARS
 OLD; CANONIZED BY POPE

WASHINGTON, Nov, 15, (P)- The influence of a young French girl who was made saint, operat- ling thru the Little Flower Guild of Washington, keeps up the general hospital at Ketchikan.
 A convent in France, priest in the Far North, a group of loyal wo- men in Washington, are closely linked together in this project. The Little Flower Guild has just con- cluded it's annual white elephant" sale, the proceeds of which go to the hospital
 Everything from slightly worn dresses to old family heirlooms are brought forth from Washington homes for this sale The money is sent to Bishop Crimont, who has been serving in Alaska for 35 years.
 From the women gathered in the hall for the sale one hears many tales of miracles wrought by Saint ThereSe, who was known as the little flower"
 Her spirit is said to have lowered lover the battle fields in the world war, aiding and comforting the soldiers. Many cures and solutions to grievous problems are attributed to her today in homes all over the world.
 Therese Martin of LiSeaux, France, became a Carmelite nun at the age of 15, permission being giv- len her by Pope Leo XIII. She died when she was but 24 years old and was canonized by Pope Plus X1.
 The lonly wastes of Alaska have Therese as their particular saint. The rows of white beds in the Ket- chikan hospital where Eskimos are received and as tenderly cared for as are the whites are kept up in her memory Priests plod thru the Arctic storms in long nights on err rands of mercy in her name.

LOS ANGELES-It pays to look

away until you peek inside.
Mrs. Flora M. Cole found it so.
Frank B. Grieninger, her husband,
died in 1924. AS far as she knew
he left nothing but a lot of old
shoe boxes on a shelf in the clos
ct. She remarked. A couple of
weeks ago she found time TO clean
out those old boxes. She peeked
inside of one and there she found
a bond worth $500.

these reservations appear to be

a people who are passionately de
voted to their children. During
my short stay here, | have seen
many touching evidences of par
entail devotion, but | have never
seen or heard an Indian mother OF

their children, even under provo

and tuberculosis, probably due to
so large an extent to malnutrition,
can never be combated while ia
mily budgets remain so low. Nor
can high standards of sanitation
be maintained while so a large a
proportion of families have no
adequate water supply. 1t is said
on good authority that only about
half of the Indian homes outside
of towns have wells.
Moral and Social Conditions
And the third of the bad trio
mentioned,-bad moral conditions,
never absent where poverty and
disease are found, confront us
here with the most deadly menace
of all. Such conditions, it has
been found, are remedial chiefly
through indirect approach; that is,
by lettering economic and sani-
tary and social conditions. Much
is said by the average parent on
the problematical younger gener-
alton of our day. They are pro-
blematical, spite of all the light
that psychology gives. and yet
they are still held to a degree by
social sanctions, traditions, and
above all, by enlightened leader

world into which their young peo-

is an appallingly serious problem.

conscience of this entire commu-
nifty, if not its instinct of self
preservation, will lead it to supply
such wholesome recreational OPP
portunities and trained leadership
as will safeguard these younger
wards of Uncle Sam. Meantime,
one of the greatest aids to social
betterment, may, it seems to me,
be found in more intercourse be-
tween the best people of the two
races.
