British ''Pay Cuts" Again

Remember, folM how Ramsay Macdonald
pleaded with tear in his eyes that the British
jobess accept tbs cut in the dole and the en-
ployed and the sailors take cut In wages, be-
cause everyone had to share in the burden"
Well, now he's carrying that out, alas. on his
comrade in socialist" wage cutting, Philip Snow
den. But in very, very peculiar way. The N.
Y. Times of Nov. 10, told about it in an Asso-
ciated Press dispatch from London.
You see Snowden didn't even try to get re-
elected in the recent elections. He evidently
knew Santa Claus" would take care of him.

However, little pin money to the poor Snow
den family is added:

the family income by $500 year as mem

says the dispatch.
So spare your tears at the hardships OF the
socialist" Viscount! Twas Mrs. Snowden, by the
way, who some years ago visited the Soviet Un-
ion and came back with tales Of horror at the
way the revolution had nterferred with the diet
of the rich.

 No explanation was obtained as to the cause of the jet on the gas range being turned on. It is be- lieved probable, however, that one of the four late in the evening or early this morning either brushed against the stove and caused the gas to escape or blew out the flame In both rooms.

 A good quality of shortening should be used, for this largely de- termines the flavor of the crust. Lard or vegetable fat can be used as preferred.
 The proportion of fat and flour with the minimum amount or Wa ter is of great importance, but the method of mixing the ingredients also must be painstakingly op- served. The tendency to overmix the materials is usually the be- ginner's worst fault. With the large proportion of fat used, 1t IS only too easy for the novice to work the constantly warming ana softening fat into the flour until a greasy mass Is formed that con not absorb enough water to make the pastry flaky. The skilled baker can work the shortening in- to the flour with her fingers. for her touch is so light and quick that 1t does not soften and melt the fat. The beginner will find that a pastry blender is not at hand.
 The addition of water is another ticklish point. Too much water makes heavy, tough dough. Toss the mixture lightly, using no Tn spite of correct proportions of fat and flour. Water must be added in such a way that it is distributed evenly among all the little flour coated particles of fat. pressure and adding water little at a time until all the particles are damp ened.

Pie is perhaps the most typically American of all desserts, but in too many homes the baking of 1t is becoming lost art. A few years ago some dietitians regarded pie crust with much disfavor and pro- claimed it as indigestible. Now nutrition specialists tell us that well-baked pastry is as completely digested by the normally healthy individual as any other form of baked stuff.
 The ideal pie crust is flaky and tender. In appearance it is a gold en brown color around the edge and a somewhat lighter brown on the bottom and in the center of the top crust. It's surface is rough, almost blistered rather than smooth and firm. It should be crisp throughout.
 Pie filings seldom give the inex- perienced baker as much trouble as the crust. Good pastry is not just luck nor mere guess. Careful methods and accurate measuring are as essential for pie crust as for any other variety of baked dishes.
 There are several kinds of pas try - plain, rich and puff or French. The average pie, however. is made with plain pastry and the woman who masters this branch of pastry making can be well satis- fled.

cl1acacter, but that knowledge is so complicated and technical that 1t is of little value to the average reader.
 In ordinary people who live on diets quite deficient in vitamin B there will develop general weak ness, loss of appetite, disturbance of the tissues generally and appa- rently a lowered resistance to in- lection. If the vitamin B deficiency becomes exceedingly great, serious nervous symptoms result. which have given to this vitamin the name of anti-neuritic vitamin. Much additional study has been made, however, on the other symp- toms that have been mentioned.
 The conspicuous effect of a de- ficiency of vitamin B is a sudden loss of appetite. Coincident with any loss of appetite, there Is 8 loss< of weight and an interference with nutrition. The question Of the palatabiIity of hte food is appra- ently not involved, because the feeding of vitamin B restores ap- petite regardless of the fact that the same type of food is being fed. Hence it is being well accepted that one of the important functions of vitamin B Is to stimplate the appetite. Apparently it is also re- lated to stimulation of the secret- ing functions of the stomach and intestines and to the power of the stomach and intestines to move the food along. Failure of the motor functions of the stomach and intestines results in all sorts of serious reactions. Hence. 1t Is important that a sufficient amount of vitamin B be taken to prevent all of the conditions that can oc- cur from such failure.
 As with vitamin A, there seems to be also a relationship of vitamin B to general body conditions. in- cluding proper metabolism or carrying on the chemistry of the body, reproduction, and ability to provide the infant with milk. The infant gets it's vitamin B through the mothers milk, but investigators are convinced that the amount 1t gets may not always be sufficient for its needs.

DEBATE ANIMALS
 AS WEATHERMEN

Seattle. UP)-Taxidermists and zoo keepers are having a big argu- ment over the question: "Can ani- malls tell when hard winter is coming ?"
 Dave Bryant, taxidermist, em- phatica1ly states that animals can; "Doc" Knudson, park zoo keeper, says they can't.
 "Tve watched fur-bearing ani- rnals for years," maintains Knud- son, land they always grow heavy winter coats. Sometimes the win ters are mild, and sometimes se- were, but I can't see any difference in the fur. Squirrels gather in nuts and beavers their supplies, but they don't know any more about winter than we do. They're just born pessimists."
 By their furs, you can tell what kind of winter to expect, insists Bryant.
 "When furs start coming in, we can predict the kind of winter we will have, and we're seldom wrong" he claims. Animals in captivity don't show this. They live too artificially, and are not in their natural surroundings. But you can bargain on a hard winter when wild furs are heavy"

CHICAGO FIRE
 COW CLEARED

Chicago-Justice finally has been done to Mrs O'Leary's COW. John F. Keefe declares. and if so a mid de western American folk tale has been shattered.
 The children of the middle west erners for three-score years have been growing up believing, as im- plicitly as the Washington cherry tree story, that on Oct g. 1871, a certain Mrs O'Leary's COW kicked over his mistress lantern and pre- cipitated the great Chicago fire.
 Mrs O'Leary's COW became a symbol. The drama in the tableau of q COW as the agent of a force which reduced Chicago to the ruins upon which q glorious new city was built was too obvious to be missed.
 Now comes John P. Keefe with a story about a group of boys, e hay loft and a clay pipe.
 "Back in 1866," said Keefe, who was fifteen ct the time of the fire. met a man who said he and three other boys started the fire. can't remember hIs name now. The story was told even in those days that oven t Mrs o'xeary's e~~ h-A'
