Three Quick Methods
You can bake quick cookies
three different ways. One short
) cut method is to shape the dough
3 into a roll, chill it thoroughly and
slice with a sharp knife when
ready to bake. These are known
as lce-box cookies and if you are
particular about neat shapes you
can get cookie molds and chill the
dough ready to slice in the molds.
An even shorter method is to
drop the mixture in the form of
a stiff batter On to the baking
sheet.
Another quick way is to spread
the thin dough in a pan and cut
after baking in squares or rect
angles.
Brown sugar gives additional
flavor and a rich brown color to
K the cookies, but white can be
used If more convenient.
From two-thirds to one cupful
of shortening is used with three
cups of flour, depending on the
richness wanted. Use the less rich

Under these conditions life never
grows monotonous.
We have much snow here IN
north Manchuria, but it never
ceases to be beautiful. When the
writer grows too old for real, ag-
gressive work and there's time,
he's going to sit down and just
watch it fall for hours. The flakes

seeds, paying no attention to the

ty of rabbits and some foxes out

ed out from a elump of trees and
gone up and over the hill. In the
mountains more distant are wa
pitt, elk, wild boar, bear, Man
ehurian tiger-and still plenty of
bandits.
The large city of Acheng, which
We are now passing, with clay ami
mails perched on top of the sta
ton as on heathen temples, holds
many tens of thousands of people
who do not know the Creator of
all we see in this interesting, wild
country. As rule they persist in
their old superstitious beliefs and
practices. Here and there from
this city has radiated to many

places streams of spiritual lgnt,
| for in the midst of its crowded
homes and shops Scotch Presoy-,
terian missionaries have preached
and taught the saving gospel OF
our Lord. Truly it is the power
of God, for we have found many
whose lives have been changed
from darkness to light as they
have taken Christ as Lord. Now
on nearly every car of these trains
we find men and women who at
these gospel centers have come to
know Him, more and more IN
numbers as we few here proclaim
His Word.
Burnt farm houses and railway
stations tell of recent numerous
bandit attacks. One frequently
sees holes in car windows and
seats, rifle shots of the cruel
bands who have unloaded their
rifles against the trains, but more
striking are the remains of burnt
passenger cars, bean oil tanks and
engines. These bring to mind the
robbing of all passengers, the
death of many, and carrying away
for torture and ransom, or tor
ture and death of very many over
the past few years. Here at Ert-
sentientza we see a beautiful big
hotel, summer-resort building, the
only one east of Harbin, standing
in ruins, another mute reminder
of lawlessness.
The Japanese were wise in cut
ting back for a quarter of a mile

This makes it harder for the ban
dts to attack, even when the
trains have been wrecked, putting
the outlaws at a disadvantage.
Since this has been done and sys-
tematic drives made into the
mountains against the organized
bands, trains are now not so fire.

One can hardly imagine state
of greater personal insecurity and
hardship from lawlessness as has
existed in this part of the world
for long time. But attacks of
the devil through opium, NOR
phine, gambling, immortality, hea-
then customs and other forms of
sin are just as violent and even
more disastrous. Christ is truly
needed in this land. We rejoice
that improvement is being made
in law and order, and that many
are turning from darkness and
sin to the light and righteousness
that may be had only through
Christ Jesus. Deep gratitude and
thanksgiving we hold for those in
the homeland who are making pos

G.. o. p. Chiefs Predict Victory In
NeU York Loss Not Necessarily
Fatal To Roosevelt

NEW YORK.-It is almost automatic in pol
itcs that the presidential candidate who carries
New York state wins the national election. The
exception Charles Evans Hughes who car
ried New York, but lost the 1916 race by few
thousand votes.
Certain reasons exist for believing that loss
of the state might not be fatal to Roosevelt
this year-reasons which can be discussed sep
arately.
Two months before election however it can
be reported that top Republican leaders fairly
sure Governor Landon will take the Empire
State with its AZ electoral votes in November
and that Democratic leaders are privately ad-
mitting that the odds seem slightly against the
president.
The Republicans expect plurality of several
hundred thousand votes upstate, where farmers
who benefited little from AAA-are heavily
anti-New Deal
1t is customary in New York to believe that
upstate pluralities cannot be beaten unless Tam
many Hall makes vigorous effort to get out
its full vote. This year most of the Tammany
leaders sour Roosevelt and Farley
In addition to the Tammany complication,
the Roosevelt candidacy is up against such ham
dcaps as the opposition of Al Smith and Father
Coughlin-both of whom have personal follow
ings-the return of many repentant Republicans
to the fold and the turning of large group of
middle-class Democrats from Roosevelt.
Lehman is running again at Roosevelt's urg-
ent behest, to enhance the chances of the ma
tional ticket. But he must run without the
active support-and perhaps with the tacit op-
position-of Al Smith, an old friend.
Nobody knows yet whom the Republican
convention will nominate to oppose Lehman.
Mayor R. B. Marvin of Syracuse and his
fellow citizen, George Fearon, party leader in
the state senate, may kill each other off (Fearon
is now leading in their contest for the nomina-
tion), in which coorful and able Judge
William F. Bleakley of Yonkers probably will
be nominated.
1t will be surprising if Lehman doesn't win.
The Republican candidate won't be nominated
until Sept %, which leaves little time for cam
paigning and buildup On the other hand,
Democratic governors can be elected in years
when the presidential candidate meets defeat.
Smith was elected in 1924 when John w. Dav-
is defeated and Al we'll remembers that
the state elected Franklin Roosevelt governor in
1928 but refused to give Al its electoral vote
for president that year.
LaGuardia will campaign for Roosevelt, ac-
cording to all reports. So will Jimmy Walker,
which should be help in the city Organized
labor leaders putting on hot campaign
to get out the vote for Roosevelt.
The fight in New York between Landon and
Roosevelt may be SO close that it will be decided
by the trends of the next few weeks.

"put the fatherland first"
A country such as the United States,
built of immigrants who naturally re-
tain an affectionate interest in "the old
country" has always had this problem
of foreign influence on domestic prob
lens. The wave of French sympathy
which swept the United States in 1893,
and of British-French sympathy in 1917,
are examples of times when foreign ties
of sympathies of Americans profoundly
affected our policies.
That is dying slowly. There is every
reason, based on the known record of
millions of loyal, patriotic, truly Amer
icanized Italo-Americans, to believe that
Mussolini's 60,000,0O0 lire will fall on
sterile soil. Americans of Italian de-
scent know too we'll what America and
democracy have done for them.
To have sympathy and love for the
fatherland and its people is admirable
and splendid. But to work actively for
transplanting or to divide loyalty, with
"fatherland first" is unthinkable.
