ping the heart fine, mixing 1t wnn
tartare sauce and returning the CAD
bage preparation to the cabbage sheH.
This container is cut even around the
top, making it closely resemble dell
cate green bowl.
The foundation for tartare sauce Is
mayonnaise. To one cupful are added
two tablespoonfuls each Of chopped
olives and sherkins. one tablespoonful
chopped pepper, one-haf teaspoonful
chopped onion, one tablespoonful caperS
and one tablespoonful minced parsley.
A more delicate cabbage tartare is
made by using one-fourth chopped Gel
cry to three -fourths cabbage, and the
other ingredients as given. Should the
homemaker not have all the other in
gradients, some may be omitted. For
instance, olives, sweet pepper, or gher-
kins. any one of them, can be left out,
but there must be diversity enough to
change the mayonnaise into a tartare:
Zest Is necessary. Lemon slices should
dress the fish about the platter, and it
is attractive to have radishes inter-
spersed.

challenge you to name a more
i beautiful one than they are. They
are graceful, with low. broad
dome, and the trunk separates near
the base into horizontal limbs OF great
length and size.
1t is always a great mystery why the
giant arms of this tree do NOT split
under the stress of storms But the
sturdy tree has strength. and the fiber
Of her wood Is such that it would al
most take a cyclone to cause this to
happen. The trunk is much buttressed
at the base, short, and divided into
several large outspreading branches
This evergreen tree Is to be found
where the soil is sandy mostly near
the coast, and 1t flourishes from Vir-
ginia to Florida. and westward into
Texas, also in Mexico. and it is abun-
dant in Western Cuba. The wide
spreading. handsome tree has bark that
is thick and slightly furrowed. 1t is

Fear.

Fear.
Fear is the ruler of men. 1t rules
because it is the principal ingredient in
the mental makeup. There seems to
be some fear stuff back of everything
we do
OF course, a person may fear any
thing As rule. any strange situation
becomes an object of fear. But it is the
propensity to fear that exists in the
individual that supplies the intensity Of
the fear associated with strange objects
and situations
Psychologists have for years tried to
determine what it Is that most people
fear most of the time Many such
ratings have been made. Some say
that We are most fearful about our pos
sessions. The possession may be wealth.
1t may be social or professional posi-
ton. 1t may be an exaggerated anxiety
about ones ability to succeed in life
The last named seems to be the most
universal of all the fears. 1t is some
times called the fear of personal in
adequacy or feelings of inferiority.
The way to determine whether this
is the most widespread of human fears
is to try to figure out what safeguards
people will take to keep from admitting
the presence Of the fear. For instance,
it is said that We talk lot about our

many feathered folk in the Old Orchard
Butcher looked forward to getting an
easy living and planned to stay just
as long as the hunting was good. He
was bold and fearless When he saw
the birds on the feeding-shelf at one of
Farmer Browns windows he did not
hesitate to dash into their midst
If it is safe for them to feed there
1t is safe for me to go there" he rea-
soned. and he did go there as you know.
But when Tommy Tit few to Farmer
Browns Boy for safety Butchers bold
ness was not quite equal to attacking
Tommy there. He would wait until this
two-legged creature was not around.
Then Farmer Browns Boy brought
out his terrible gun and at the bang
of that Butcher took to his wings. He
had not been hurt. for Farmer Browns
Boy had taken care not to hit him,
but he was nightly scared. And when
Farmer Browns Boy followed him to
the end of the Old Orchard and there
was another terrible bang Butcher right
then and there decided that the time
had come to resume his travels.
This is no longer any place for me"
thought he as he swiftly winged his way
across the Green Meadows. Il had good
hunting while it lasted, but the time
has come to move on. 1 never did like
staying long in place anyway"
So Butcher the Shrike continued on
his way, lone rover. stopping a day
or two here and a day or two there,
alone but never lonesome; independent;
bod but watchful. and none welcomed
him nor did any try to detain him. And
in the Old Orchard fear gave way to
peace.

No seams are allowed in this pat
tern Therefore one-quarter inch was
added on all SIDES when cutting the
material. They pasted the newspaper
picture and directions in their quilt
club scrap books They traced the pat
tern from the leaf1et onto lightweight
cardboard Then they laid these on the
materials, which were color fast, and
cut the pieces. They usually marked
on the cloth the outline of the card
board. Then they added one-quarter
inch for seams as they cut it out. BY
having the lead-pencil marking it was
easy for them to keep their seams
straight, for they Sewed right on the
mark.
They chose dark blue, polka-dotted
with white, for the dark pieces and
plain white for the rest of the quilt.
When they made this into an all
over top they counted on 5l2 yards Of
dark and 3la yards of white.
Their piecing was done with No; 60
4 inch from ends and edges. This al
lowed them to press the seams fiat
after the quilt was pieceo.
The interlin!ng was a cotton bait.
The back was white material of the
same quality as the top. The binding
on the edge was of white.

n UTCHER THE SHRlKE is one OF
X these. He is not socially in
l. clined, Therefore he has no
friends among the other feath-
cred folk. Does he care? Not
bit. His only interest in his neighbors
is when he is hungry and no other food
is to be obtained. Then he does take
an interest in his feathered neighbors,
an interest that often is unfortunate
for some of them, for Butcher the
Shrike believes that preservation is
the first law Of life. and that II In obey
ing that law others suffer it Is just
too bad for them.
Butcher had come down to the Old
Orchard from farther North because
food up there was scarce and he had
no intention OF starving as long as he
had a good pair Of wings to take him
where food could be found. As usual
he had travelled alone. He had come
by easy stages stopping for while
here and again there wherever ne could
find enough to eat. One advantage
of travelling alone is that what you find
Is YOURS you don't have to share it, )"
says Butcher When there Is plenty
to eat it doesn't matter how many
neighbors you have, but when 1t Is as
scarce as it is in Winter I prefer just
my owr company, and fare the better
for it."
So when he had first arrived at the
Old Orchard he had kept by himself.
He would have nothing whatever to do
with the other birds and they soon
ceased to try to be friendly, which was
just what he wanted. At first he found

impediment?"
The allusion was to a speech impedi-
ment-stuttering. While the word re-
fers. of course. to anything that acts
as a hinderance or obstruction. one of
its most familiar uses is describing a
defect in speech. Yet literally the word
means 'entanglement of the feet!'
'Impediment" is from Impede, VI
which means to obstruct. 1t comes to
us from the Latin "impedire." which is
composed of ''im," in. plus 'pedis," foot,
and is literally to entangle the feet
Simply an extension in meaning to a
