TOWN WHERE LINCOLN BE-
GAN CAREER HONORS HIM
West Salem, Ill. Feb. II.

w SSO OdIcII, LII. T6D. IL.
Here on the wooded banks of
the Sangomon river, where
Abraham Lincoln started the
public career that carried him
to Immortality, the great eman-
cipator was honored on the
anniversary of his birth Feb. ~,
1t was 100 years ago that the
women of old West Salem, then
a teeming mill town, rebelled
because the local postmaster
permitted their anxiously await
ed mail to remain untouched
while he dispensed whisky to
thirsty men. They circulated
petitions for his removal. Lin
coin was given the job, a corner
stone of his temple of stateman-
ship.
Descendants of these hardy
pioneer women attended to the
unwilling of a bust of old West
Salem's most famous postmast-
er by Carl B. Chandler, noted
Lincoln authority, at the old
Salem state park.
Lincoln and his tall commo-
dious hat became an ambula-
tory postoffice. At any time of
the day, no matter the whims
of wheather, Lincoln went out
of his way to carry the mail.
Instead of leaving it at the
postoffice, he delivered it per-
sonally regardless of distance
when he knew someone was
waiting for it.
In the march of American
progress, old West Salem in
years past became a deserted
village, but today architects are
at work to reconstruct it as it
stood when Lincoln trod it's
streets. Out of the past of dim
recollection of staunch pioneers
they are rebuilding log houses
and huts as of the Lincoln era.
Soon they hope to present an
exact reproduction of the old
West Salem of the Lincoln's
postmaster days.

COOLIDGE STATION
HANDLES 1888 CARS
OF FREIGHT IN 81

NJ. H. Durham, Southern Pa
cific agent at Coolidge, gave us
the tabulated figures on the
number of carloads of freight
handled by the company at
Coolidge during the year 1882.
Three hundred and ninety
one carloads were shipped in
and five hundred and forty two
were shipped out of Coolidge,
making a total of 933 cars hand
led. When we consider the
large amount of freight and
farm products brought IN and
taken out by trucks during the
same time from Coolidge, it
shows considerable business
for this town during 1882.

CASA GRANDE NATIONAL
MONUMENT NEWS

The grading of a road at the
Casa Grande National Monu-
ment, recently unearthed a two
tailed specimen of Leopard Liz
ard, (crotaphytus wislizenii)
Just what caused this freak
to sprout two tails instead of
one is unknown at present.
The Leopard Lizard is a
banded and spotted reptile and
is considered to have cannibal-
istic habits. This might be con-
sidered enough of a devilish
custom to cause a forked tail.
The specimen is on display
at the museum of the Casa

bill as they feel that it is the
only way the schools of Pinal
county may be kept open the
coming year. There is no
money to pay the teachers and
the only way they can cash
their warrants is discounting
them i5 per cent. This means

 Fish of all kinds-but especially raw oysters-are rich in phosphor- ous iron, calcium and iodine, four minerals that are exceedingly im- portant to health and beauty. And such is also a good source of pro- tein which is necessary to every living cell and without which growth is retarded in children; tis- sues deteriorate in adult life.
 These things can tell you from the beautician's experience but there must be something more than a mere prescription of this food and that ifI am to make con- verts to good eating habits-even for beauty's sake. There must be, recipes that tempt the taste as well as arguments of the scientific type. There must be novel recipes, too, so that the home cook will be moved to experiment outside the routine service tha is more or less a part of every home.

 What was the fault that they sound with the old-fashioned tea roriao Simply the same they'd find s--if they dared--with many of the meals that are served at home. Portions were too small; food as whole was too dainty. That is to say, .'substantials" and quantity" were sacrificed for the sake of va gicty and appearance.
 Men like menus that are built around a hearty main course and served without fussiness. The meal that is made up of small portions of number of different foods no matter how dainty or well cook ed they may be--never seems to satisfy their appetites although the woman who has carefully balanced and prepared the menu may know that all the necessary elements are present in ample quantity.

MEAT STUFFINGS J
 THAT ARE POPULAR

Stuffings are becoming more and more popular since many of our meat cuts are boned at the market. Such cuts as the shoulder of pork or lamb are ideal for boning and stuffing; then friend husband need have no worry about carving them at the table.
 Too, pockets may be cut in chops, and the pocket stuffed with a savory stuffing. Or meat birds may be made by placing a mound of stuffing on a square of thinly cut meat, and rolling and skewer- ing into shape.
 The savoriness of the stuffing de-' pends upon the seasoning, so here is a recipe for a standard we'll seasoned bread dressing. It Is sug- gested by Inez s. Wilson, home economist.
