HUNGARY.
Reprinted from Youngstown
Telegram for March. 30, 1884,


Telegram for March 30, 1881.
Editor Telegram; A few days
ago it was my privilege to view
the first all Hungarian talking
film to be produced in Hungary
and which was presented at q
/ local theater. The presentation
consisted of many and varied
subjects including folk songs
humorous skits. scenes in Hung
arian villages and views showing
the beautiful ceremonies held in
Budapest. capital of Hungary
commemorating the ninth cente-
nary of the death Of st. Emery,
SON Of st. Stephen, Hungary's
first king.
It is not Of the film l wish to
write, but Of the impressions I, as
one Of the large audience, re-
ceived; to give the reactions, if
/ am able, of the Hungarians to
certain of the scenes'so that we
may better understand these
people.
During, the, singing of,the folk
songs the audience was en-
raptured by the beauties of the
song and appreciative of the
artists efforts. They enjoyed
fine music and welcomed it. The
humorous skits brought forth
laughter, free and hearty, which
proved that these Hungarians
can and do enjoy good clean
'humor. During the showing of
views Of Budapest during the i'm
pressive Catholic ceremonies com
memorating St. Emery's death,
many prayers could be heard
showing these Hungarians to be
God-loving and God-fearing
people.
But, my friends, when scenes
of Hungarian villages were
shown-it was not laughter and
sighs Of appreciation we heard,
but sounds of crying and in every
eye there was tears and on every
lip prayer! A tear for what +?
A prayer for what?
A tear because the Magyar
heart that can enjoy art and
beauty could not bear to see
again scenes he so fondly knew
and loved without thinking Of
days gone forever. He could not
see those grains of wheat ON the
screen without thinking of his
native land. And to think back
was to remember that Hungary,
his dear old Hungary, which
remained intact for thousand
years. was but mere shadow Of
her former self, that only about
one-third Of his Hungary remains.
And all due to a treaty which was
based and written on faasified
facts. We're these Magyars
ashamed Of their tears? | think
not. 1t is sad to see one s native
country and motherland so mutt
lated and dismembered and tears
OF sorrow are but proof of the
love that burns in every Magyar
heart for his country, his nation,
his people.
And why the prayers9 Even in
his moment Of distress and hard
ship, the Magyar does not forget
his God. And to his God he prayed
that once again Hungary may be
her former self q nerfact yr;+ ~

herself, nation Of free men who
love liberty and independence no
less than we do A prayer that
the demokratic nations thruout
the world will see fit to release
sections of Hungary from bond
age, from the rule Of tyrants.
May God in his graciousness
grant these people their prayer
and change their tears Of sorrow
to tears of joy. And let Ills hope
that in years to come we Ameri-
cans can proudly say that we, in
our poor way, helped fulfill the
prayer Of these Hungarian Mag
vars and were part in bringing
justice to Hungary, and peace to
the world.

CANNED tomatoes prove as sat

many dishes. The hogsekeeper who
keeps the canned variety on hand
never lacks variety on her table.
Some cooks strain tomatoes be-
fore reheating for the table, be-
cause enough water cooks out TO
form sufficient juice to suit them.
One of the best ways to utilize
this Juice is to make tomato jel-
~ salad Any of the other vege-
tables left from the meal may be
added to the juice and all simmer
ed with a few slices Of onion, whole
cloves. parsley and celery. Add
salt and sugar as necessary, then
strain and measure the seasoned
juice. A little lemon juice or vine
gar may; be needed to make the
jelly pleasantly tart. Use one and
one-half tablespoons granulated
geiatine to two cups of tomato
juice in place of the customary I
tablespoon gelatine to a pint of
liquid. Pour the jelly into molds
and let stand several hours TO chill

Individual molds are always at
traetive. An unusual way to pre-
pare the salad is TO mold it in
pound baking-powder cans, un-
mold and cut in slices, and serve
the jelly slices between slices Of
canned pineapple with mayonnaise

Salt goldfish baked with tomato
sauce makes an excellent luncheon.
The fish must be freshened over
night in water. Drain and SIM
mer until tender in fresh water.
Arrange in buttered baking dish.
Sprinkle lightly with tablespoons

Cover with two cups strained to-
mato juice and bake in a moder-
ately hot oven. The tomato juice
