Detached House Still Ideal
The strong tendency to think of the
detached single-family house as the
ideal home still persists, it was found
by the Committee on Home Ownership
and Leasing, in spite of the trend to-
ward apartment houses in the larger
cities.
For instance, this group, headed by
Ernest T. Trigg of Philadelphia, re-
ported that the proposition of homes
owned in Delaware as whole in
creased steadily from 36.2 per cent in
1900 to 5l,o per cent in 1880. In New
Hampshire, owned homes decreased
from $50 per cent in 1900 to 49.S pei
cent in 1920, hut rebounded to 543 pei
cent in 1880.

SAFEGUARD YOUR HEALTH
Family Food Guide" Suggested
by Miss Pearl Macdonald

At a time when there is a linn
tied amount of money to spend
due to much unemployment and
conditions resulting from the
drought, greater care must be tax
en- in selecting foods in order to
safeguard the health of the mem
bers of the family especially the
children says Miss Pearl Mac
Donald of the Extension Service of
the University of Delaware The
following food guide for the fam
lily is recommended by the Federal
Bureau of Home Economics, as a
safeguard. Everymeal- Milk for
children, bread for all Every day
Cereal in porridge or puddings,
potatoes, tomatoes Cor orangesl for
children, a green or yellow veget-
able, a fruit or additional veget-
able, milk for all Two to four
times a week tomatoes for all:
dried peas and beans or peanuts;
eggs ESPECIALLY for children; lean
meat, fish or poultry, or cheese. If
you wish, during the winter
months, to keep up resistance to
infections of nose, throat, ears and
eyes, (such infections as cold, ,etc.)
you need to supply in the diet
plenty of the so-called vitamin"A"
In the winter. the body is subject

toes, leafy greens (kale, winter
cress, mustard top, turnip top,
spinach, lettuce, cabbage), green
string beans, oranges, prunes.
Hence, the Family Food Guide
as suggested above, if followed,
will help to safeguard against the
diseases and illnesses that are apt
to come in the train of undernour-
ishment. 1t provides a very good
allowance of milk, bread and
breakfast foods, supplemented by
vegetables, fruits, dried peas and
beans. Fresh or canned tomatoes,
or oranges are included to insure
against scurvy. Less meat and
smaller amounts of sweet are rec
commended The following is a
suggestive menu for one day.
Breakfast. Cooked cereal with
milk; Graham or corn mullins; mo-
lasses. Dinner: Spanish Rice;
scalloped cabbage, apple or carrot
salad with crisp, green lettuce,
with apple GAUGE and lettuce for
younger children), coffee for
adults; milk for children; bread.
butter or margarine. Supper:
Lima beans baked with carrots;
milk toast for children, tea for
adults; stewed prunes or apricots;
bread; butter or margarine. Span
ish Rice-Put into baking dish 2
cups canned tomatoes; 1 cup boil
ing water; 1-2 cup uncooked rice;
1 small onion sliced or green pep
per or both Season with salt and
pepper and bake in moderate oven.
When rice is tender, add 1-2 to 3-4
cup cheese shaved thin and 2 tab
lespoonsful butter or margarine.
Serve when cheese is melted.
Cheese takes the place of meat and
can be combined in scalloped dish
es with rice, potatoes, macaroni,
spaghetti, vegetable. Baked Lima
Beans Wash and soak over night
2 cups dried limas Drain, put in
creased baking dish, season with
salt and pepper. Add a 2 inch
cube of fat, salt pork, or more
of carrots cut small. Add water
to cover and bake in a slow oven.
Add more water, if needed. Onion
or green pepper may be added if |

Lecture.-Rev. j. S. Willis was

seventy minutes that he spoke. He
had no notes, not even a handcard

cally carricatured the restriction:
of the "old time religion" in the
use of music, fiction in literature
suppressing the dramatic element
in our nature, etc. He showed how
Christ used allegories, parallels
etc.. and how beautiful was the re-
corded imagery used in his ad-
dresses to the multitudes. He held
up the Deacon who thanked God
that he was thus and so, while the
poor all around were suffering for
the comforts of life, and maintain
ed that men of practical piety felt
the kin of brotherhood and would
be moved to hold out the hand of
relief. The shylocks, stingy. grasp
ing, unfeeling, deceptive individu-
ais were held up to scorn as the
antipodes of the well developed
man physically, mentally, and
morally. The model of a perfect
man was Christ. Even Ingersoll
admitted his greatness, in his sim
plicity and unselfish efforts to raise
the people from their thraldrom of
sin, as did also Renan, Strauss and
other leading atheists. Next to a
good life the greatest blessing was
death. 1t had been presented as
cross bones and skull-a disgust
ing picture, but to the poor it was
their greatest blessing because it
brought relief to their misseries
and woes. 1t was also necessary
as a corrective for the rich. Wealth
was an Unsuitable nav that cried
more, more, and was never salts
fled. The man who had made his
million was just as greedy for his
second, and if they lived 969 years
the Rothchilds and Vanderbilt's
would own all the property and the
people be driven into the commune.
He thought in an expansive coun-
try like ours where each man has
an equal chance before the law
that every mar who has a sound |
body and pure mind should have |
a home at forty years of age and |
be living in the pursuit of domes-
tic happiness. If not, it is because
they have missed time and wasted i
opportunities. The love of coun-
try was set forth as one of the
nobler instincts, and patriotism
with the true and the brave the
principle to live by, and if needs
oe, die by. His ideal man. the
