CLARKSVILLE

Well, vacation days are here
again, folks from the city are anx-
ious to get to the country and coun-
try people are slipping away for a
few days in the busy life of the big
cities. So this is the time of the
year when important things are al
most lost sight of in the rush to
seek for pleasure and social times.
How many of our country Chris
tians are seeking the church while
in the city, and on the other hand
do OUR city visitors realize the i'm
portance of church attendance
while they enjoy the river and sea-
shore. Jesus preached many good
sermons, and performed many mir
acles in the mountains and along
the seaside. The appeal to follow
the world is often stronger than
following after the better, higher
and nobler things of life. But
which will pay larger dividends?
Have you ever figured the invest
ment? Think is over.
Mr.. and Mrs. Vernon Cobb and
sons, Roland and George, were din
ner guests of Mr.. and Mrs. Samuel
Davis on last Saturday.
Mr.. Taylor and children were
weekend guests of the Brasure fam
lily over the weekend.
Mrs. Sarah Lynch celebrated her
10Th birthday on June 18th. Not a
few of her family and friends sent
her shower of cards congratulate
ing her, and wishing her many
more long years of health and hap
piness. Just to prove that she had
not forgotten her early training on
the farm, she went to the barn and
milked COW. In time that would
have greeted some of our young
maidens with embarrassment, had
the challenge been extended to
them.
Edward Moore. of Philadelphia, is
spending a few days with his moth
er. Mrs. Malvina Moore. ~.
Mr.. and Mrs. John Hargadine, of
Dover, entertained at the Helm
country home Mr.. and Mrs. Nelson
of FELTON,, also Miss Ruth
Collins, of Smyrna.
Capt. Geo. Anderson and family
of Aldan, Pa, were weekend Wis
itors.
Mr.. and Mrs. Edward Johnson, of |
sEast Lansdowne, Pa, visited their
summer home. ..
Mr.. and Mrs. Clinton Helm, of |
Dover, and Mrs. Mamie Calkins, of |
Ohio, spent Sunday at the |
home of E. w. Helm.
Anticipation often comes in larg- |
er packages than realization.

lage is steadily going forward to

4 The annual convention of the Bal
timore Hundred Council of Relig- |
ious Education will be held on next

STRIKING STUDENTS

The present school year has seen
a remarkable number of "strikesH
by students of colleges and prepara-
tory schools. Their grievances in
cluded such things as restricted hol-
idays, compulsory military service
and a ban on wearing corduroy
trousers. Some have demanded the
designations of their presidents be-
cause of their lack of sympathy for
college athletics. Presumably the
explanation lies in modern youths
impatience under discipline. At
least that is the first idea to suggest
itself. But it is just as clear that
real discipline is right now one of
the greatest needs of our young pe0-
pie. Everybody says so, anyway. So
don't weaken, college presidents.
There are too many young men 60
ing to college, it is agreed, and If
any of them insist on their own way
when they get there they can be
easily spared.--The Pathfinder.

OUR chat Of week ago concerned,
you remember, a discussion OF
menus for the formal dinner. And
now let me tell you about the things
that are served with each course.
Bread at a dinner party is usually
limited to finger rolls and Melba toast.
Butter may not be served at q formal
dinner. Melba toast Is made OF bread
cut about an eighth of an inch thick
and Drowned in the oven. 1t is quite
all right for 1t to curl. Sailed nuts are
eaten throughout soup, FISH and meat

Fish Provides
Variety in Food
BY SALLY MONROE.

A GOOD many housewives avoid flsh
a in the bill OF fare of their family
because Of the dislike they have for
the smell of fish on dishes, silver and
cooking utensils. This Is unfortunate
because fish is inexpensive and whole
some and affords a pleasing variety to
the meals. BY having it once q week
you can dispose Of the meat problem
for one night. and need not have the
same sort of fish any two weeks in sue
c@sion.
Now there is no reason why you
should have difficulty with the smell of
the fish Just bear in mind that fiSh
clings most pertinaciously to steel and
iron. Never use steel in preparing II
more than you have to. You may need
to cut It. but usually any cutting nee
essary can be done at the fish market
where 1t is bought. Do not cook 1t in
iron or other metal utensils. If you
like fried fish then have q frying pan
devoted entirely to fish. Do not use
1t for anything else, because the fish
smell will come in spite of the great
est care. Broiled fish Is wholesome.
and if you use coal stove you should
have q special fish broiler.
If you broil by gas 1t is good plan
to have a special broiler in which to
lay the fish over the other broiler,
This makes it easy to turn the fish and
also prevents the fish coming in direct
contact with the rods Of the regular
broiler.
AS soon as the fish dinner has been
finished all plates or other dishes con-
tanning fish should be Immediately
scraped and every scrap of fish dts
posed of in the outside garbage can
DO not let 1t stand around in the sink
strainer or the kitchen refuse can.
Then have q dishpan full of very hot
soapy water. 1t is even a good idea
to use soap powder, though you may
not usually do this because of possible
injury to your hands. Wash all fshy
dishes first, taking care that silver Is
washed promptly in very hot water and
soap and then rinsed in more very hot
water.

bons, caramels. or any decorative can
dies are passed. Coffee and cigarettes
are served in the living room.
The popular saying from soup to
nuts by the way. has no meaning.
Because nuts are always removed before
dessert. For this reason one may not
put nuts in the candy dishes that are
part Of the decoration OF the table.

Coffee Pie.

This is one of the most delightful
hot-weather pies you can imagine
and odd enough to occasion pleasant
comment Into baked tart shells or a
medium sized baked pie crust pour the
filling which is made In this way:
Brew two cupfuls of strong hot coffee
and add to 1t half cupful of sugar.
Soak two tablespoonfuls of gelatin in
a half cupful Of cold water and add it
to the coffee; when dissolved pour over
two egg yolks which have been beaten
together with q little sugar. Cook the
mixture over water until it thickens.
Remove and add pinch of salt and (if
you like it, vanilla flavoring. When the
mixture Is cool and beginning to set
beat 1t vigorously with a rotary egg
beater and when it becomes foamy add
the beaten whites Of two eggs and a
cupful Of cream which has been whipped
until very stiff. Set in the refrigerator
until the filling begins to stiffen then
place into the baked pastry shells.
