I you say that" warned John Dey's
mother. He says it is DR.. Bob's-
every brick of it. John feels deeply
indebted to DR.. Bob you know. He
loves him like an older brother.
"Dr. Bob pulled John through that
terrible illness just after he had
finished college. And when John
Jr. and Betty Lou were born, John
and Elizabeth would have no one
but DR.. Bob.
Elizabeth loved him, too. How
he fought to save her-day and
night for a week-but it was n vain.
We can never forget what DR.. Bob
has done for us"
AIMS foot was swinging more
energetically as she lit another
cigaret.
And as for the children" contin-
ued Mrs. Dey. they are his babies
always. They love him as much as
their father does. And he will go
up and see them regardless of the
hour. It makes their nurse furious"
There was the sound of approach
ing voices through the hall from the
dining room. AS the door opened
Ann greeted the arrivals with a
radiant, red-lipped smile.
DR. LAIRD shook hands with his
- hostess, who tapped him on the
arm and scolded:
Late, as usual! Oh, DR.. Bob, you
are hopeless. I'll never call you
when I'm i'll, for I am sure you
would never arrive in time"
DR.. Laird laughed as he greeted
Mrs. Westmore and her daughter.
Ann extended a limp, little hand, her
eyes fastened on John Dey, stand
ing beside the doctor.
"Ah, kind lady, be more charita-
ble," laughed DR.. Laird. MY duties
are many, and it was such an i'm
portant one tonight. You idle folk
do not know the meaning of impor-
tant duties or responsibilities. Jim
mie is just getting over the measles
and Casey is cutting a tooth and
Betsy bumped her head"
He seated himself and accepted a
cigar from John Dey, who was smil-
ing down at him.
THANK you, my boy. Oh, this is
comfort after a hard day"
John Dey was scarcely 80, tall and
ad-shouldered, big brown eyes set
in a full, handsome face, and thick,
brown hair waving back from
high forehead. Ann moved over on
the couch and smiled up at him,
placing her hand on the space which
his mother had occupied. Mrs. Dey
had taken a chair near Mrs. West
more.
do sit rown, John"
He sat down beside her, leaning
back against the cushions, his fine,
young face half yelled in a plume
of smoke.
1t thought you would never
come" Ann pouted prettily. "You
absolutely forget everybody-ev-
erything when the doctor is near
you"
John Dey laughed easily. "We
mad to be Soclable while ne ate his
dinner, Ann. I wouldn't have
given him a bite but old Martha
insisted he have everything from
soup to nuts and Joseph seconded
it, SO the judge and had to wait
for him."
DR.. Laird chuckled over his
cigar.
and over the dessert we got
into a discussion-a very important
discussion, Ann, and when our
friend John found I was getting
the best of it-had the courage of
my conviction to offer proof that
he was all wrong-then he sud-
denly remembered his mother had
guests waiting for him."
Ann moved nearer to John Dey
and smiled up at him. please,
John, tell me what the dis
cussion was about-this very i'm
portant discussion"

The two titled German women
went in for intrigue. Dramatic du-

G. 0. p. Senators
Scored by Nice

ANNAPOLIS, Feb. ia storm
of gubernatorial wrath broke over
the heads of the Republican mem
bers of the State senate today
when Governor Harry w. Nice
charged the minority members
with dilatory tactics and demand
ed that they organize and vote as
a bloc to put administration meas
ures through.
His main criticism was aimed at
Senator Harry T. Phoebus, Repub'
ncan, Somerset county, who has
introduced a number of measures
without consulting his colleagues
and went so far as to introduce
bill for 2-dollar automobile tags
when the governor had already
caused a bill fixing 5-dollar tags as
the minimum.

in Los Angeles and other Pacific
Coast cities, r ported to President
Roosevelt today that in his opin-
ion I'VE are out of the depression
and don't know it."
Mr.. Moffett brought back a
breezy picture of Western activity
and optimism which would 1ndi-
cate that high It'd Of prosperity
is sweeping Eastward.
Mr.. Moffett reported what he
considered an amazing reaction
to the building and modernization
program of the Administration
on the part of the busin SIS men
and bankers Of Los Angeles. He
said that 1900 business men Of
that community were present at
a luncheon given to afford Mr..
Moffett an opportunity to xplain

program of modernization and
building.
Sign Building Pledge
At the end of the luncheon,
according to Mr.. Moffett, the
responsible business leaders OF
that city signed a pledge to un'
dertake a building program OF
$1O0,000,0OO.
At the close of the luncheon
Mr.. Moffett met with a hundred
bankers and explained the financ'
ing end of the program.
A similar situation was found
in San Francisco, although the
housing program there is not yet
organized:
Mr.. Moffett said:
"There is a tremendous amount
of optimism throughout the
West. An increasing number Of
men going back to work.
Il think that the housing

SYNOPSIS

Sister MuryS
 Kitchen

On hectic days 1t seems as if "tempus fugits" faster in the kitch- en than any other place, and that if you take your eyes for one sec- Ond from the vegetables on the stove they burn or otherwise mis- behave. And that's where you keeper by knowing how to turn failure into success.
 Any Vegetable that has just started to burn can be piaccd--in its cooking pan--into a larger pan of cold water. The vegetable then should be SHAKEN, not scraped, out of the burned pan into q fresh pan or bowl leaving the scorched portion fin the pan. If not done, a little boiling water can be added and the cooking finished. Season and serve as usual, and nobody will know the difference.
 Shake Fan to Prevent ScOrching
 An excellent precaution for the new cook is to shake the sauce pan occasionally in which a veg etable is cooking. Often the smooth -cut, flat surface sticks and burns before the water cooks away or the vegetable is done. Shaking prevents this without crushing as stirring might do. Potatoes and sliced carrots are examples of veg. ctables that often scorch.
 If too much salt threatens to spoil tho soup. add from half a cup to a whole cup of sliced raw potatoes to the kettle of soup. Let stand ten or fifteen minutes, re- move potatoes and serve. The po- tatoes absorb the excess salt.
 If the mayonnaise separates, take another egg yolk in fresh bowl and slowly beat in tho cur until all the ingredients are used.
 If q custard sauce curdles, beat 1t well with a dover beater. This same beatcr often will beat the Jumps out of white sauce that has been made in too big hurry. If the sauce is very lumpy 1t can be rubbed through fine sieveSr and relocated.
 If the breakfast cereal Jumps despite vigorous stirring, use heavy wire whisk or e stron dgover beater.
 A tomato cream soup that showA an inclination to curdlc can be converted into Q thick puree to- gethcr in the proportion of 1 ta- blespoon butter and tablespoon flour to each cup of soup. One tablespoon fine sifted soda crack CT crumbs added to each cup of soup will correct the tendency to curdlc. too.
 If jam becomes hard and su- gary before 1t Is used up, place 1t in a moderate oven until the sugar melts. When cool the jam is almost as good as new.
 Boiled frosting that Insists on running when put on the cake can be made stiff by adding powdered sugar until the mixture will stay put.
 A gelatin jelly that refuses to stiffen in the required length of time can be hurried if more gela- tin is softcned in cold water, dis solved over hot water and added at once to the offending jelly. -
 One seldom if ever has this sort of trouble if q prepared jelly is used. When fresh fruit juices are used they vary considerably in their acidity. with the result that the jelly may not stiffen the same every time.
