No I3-Inch Fish

''Thirteen-inch fish are ap-
parently very hard to catch in
Michigan" says R. W. Esch-
meyer, of the Institute for
Fisheries Research, after check
ing over thousands of creel census
returns made by the states ang-
lers. Anglers estimate their fish
at 10, II, IA and 16 inches but
rarely do they say 9, II, Is, Is
or any odd figure.

It was on October %, 1886, that
she took her stand there. On that
date occurred the formal dedica-
ton Of this gift Of the people OF
France to the people Of sister
republic. The principal address
at the dedication was delivered
by President Grover Cleveland
and thousands Of people crowded
on to the little island or lined
the New York shore nearby to
witness the ceremonies.
On October % of this year that
historic ceremony will be du-
pIicated by another and similar

expected to take part in the 1886

quickly made sketch of the
proposed statue and during his
stay in this country talked en-
Enthusiastically of his plan. He met
President Grant, Generals
Meade and Sheridan and the
poet, LongfeIlow, during his stay
IN this country and found them
sympathetic toward the project.
Upon his return to France he
showed his friends the sketch he
had made on board ship-a giant
figure of a woman which he
called Liberty Enlightening the
World" Soon the French were
organizing committees to raise
money to pay for such magnif-
icent gift to America and Bar
tholdi was commissioned to make
the statue. The beginning Of the
campaign to raise the money was
celebrated on November 6, 1875,
by huge banquet at the Hotel
Louvre in Paris. Prominent fig
ures in the world Of arts, letters
and politics were present, both
from the United States and
France. Among the celebrities
there, also, was Gounod, COM
poser of the famous opera,
Faust" who had written a spe-
cial hymn in honor of the
goddess, which, he announced,
was to be sung at the operas
premiere.
In the course Of the banquet,
Laboulaye, typical Frenchman,
climbed to the stage and cried:
See how much low the Ameri-
cans. Even at my great age /
mount the platform for them"
As the project developed, an
American ommittee was
formed, with William NJ. Evarts,
secretary Of state, as chairman,
to raise 100000 for the founda-
tons and pedestal. This added to
the S700,000 being raised by pop
ular subscription in France
brought the cost to S1,000,000. In
1872 Congress had voted to &C
cept the gift and in 1877 Bedloe's
Island, previously used as the
site of fort, was set aside for
the memorial.
Work on the memorial pro-
ceeded steadily, though far from
as speedily as the ardent Bar
tholdi wished. His first small
model stood nearly six feet high.
Its dimensions were multiplied
by twenty for the final colossal
figure.
Shown at ExpositionS.
By opening of the Centennial
exposition in 1876 at Philadelphia
the project had gained great
Roadway. At that worlds fair
was shown the right forearm OF
the image, with the torch, Just
as it was finally installed. Many
who saw it there wondered if
anything so huge could be ever
lifted to the height proposed. At
ter the exposition was over the
arm was exhibited IN Madison
Square
The head of the statue was ex-
hibited at the Paris exposition of
1873. The following year the sub
scription lists were filed and on
July 7, 1880, an official letter was
addressed to the American COM
mittee in charge of the project
on this side of the Atlantic, re-
porting on the progress of the
work and the probable date of its
completion
Steadily the work went on and

Hot Dishes For

''Spring-Fever" Hikers

1t will not be long now until the
children will get the "spring fever"
and will be planning weekend hik-
ing trips. The most important part
of the hiking program is the "feed"
en- route, And nothing in the way
of "feed" can compare with the
one III which there is at least one
good, hot dish prepared by the
young folks themselves.
By planning the dish in advance,
depending as much as possible on
canned foods almost ready to eat,
the dish can be substantial and
nourishing, while at the same time
it is interesting and practical. For
instance, here is a sample:
GEORGIA BRUNSWICK STEW
Divide up among the group,
packages which contain: 1 can of
boned chicken, one can tomatoes,
one of little beans, one of whole
kernel corn. Provide salt and pep
per. See that one in the party car

which to cook the mixture. Arrived
at the camping spot, mix all the
above ingredients together, season.
ing with pepper and salt, and if
necessary, adding a little water.
The stew is ready when it is we'll
cooked through. 1t should be
"mushy" and the above will provide
generous portion for six.
With it, there should be bread
and butter sandwiches, pickles and
jar of olives.

WHAT is CURRY POWDER
MADE OF?

Did you ever try to take curry
powder apart? And did you ever
know that while we think of just
one mixture called "curry" powder,
in India, where they really go in
for curry in big way, there is a
different combination of spices for
a great variety of curries. Each
sort of meat and of fish calls for q
particular preparation of ground
spices into particular curry. The
single combination which seems to
suit us is made up of
Coriander seed
turmeric
cinnamon
cummin seed
cardamon seed
fenugreek seed
ginger
cayenne pepper
pimento
black pepper
long pepper
Glove
nutmeg
Quite an array! and we wonder
who first thought of getting it to-
gether!

They Would Still Love To
Clean The Mixing Bowl
Or Lick The Beaten

Nine men out of ten like their
cakes "goo-ey"-and don't make
any mistake about it. These are the
cakes with the pastry cream fill
ings, the Boston Cream Pie style of
cakes--the three layer cakes with
nice thick filling between the lay
ers and a good top layer of nice
icing. And if there are a quantitv
of nuts scattered about inside and
around and on top, so much the
better, says the mere man. When
this same "mere man" was a "mere
boy" he used to clean out the mix
ing bowl in which the chocolate
filling was prepared and maybe he
had the happy job of cleaning the
egg beaten with his fingers and
finishing the odd bits of whipped
cream. For such as he, here are a
couple of grand ideas:
ORANGE LAYER CAKE
1s cups sifted cake flour
IN teaspoons baking powder
Il teaspoon salt
! teaspoon grated orange rind
u cup butter or other shortening
h teaspoon glycerine
cup sugar
2 eggs, unbeaten
IL cup orange juice
Sift flour once, measure, add
baking powder and salt, and sift
together three times. Add orange
rind to butter and cream thorough
ly, add sugar gradually, dreaming
until light and fluffy. Add eggs,
one at time, beating thoroughly
after each, add glycerine. Add
flour, alternately with orange juice,
small amount at a time, beating
after each addition until smooth.
Bake in two creased S-inch layer
pans in moderate oven (375F) rs
minutes. Spread generously with
orange butter frosting.
ORANGE BUTTER FRoSTING
tablespoon grated orange rind
" teaspoon grated lemon rind
A tablespoons orange juice

8 tablespoon butter
egg yolk, unbeaten

8 cups sifted confectioners' sugar
Add orange and lemon rind to
fruit juice and let stand 10 min
utes; strain if desired. Cream but
ter; add egg yolk and salt and mix
well. Add part of sugar gradually,
until of right consistency to spread.
Beat after each addition until
smooth. Makes enough frosting to

Creole Style
Cabbage Treat
For Family
If You Care For Well Sea-
s0ned Dishes, Try
This One

Creole cookery is completely in
a class by itself and is a mixture
of the best cookery of France and
Spain, interpreted by negro cooks
who give it that certain touch
which makes it so distinctive. It
was probably the negroes who
have an instructive knowledge Of
herbs who introduced them into
Creole cookery.
Probably the best known of all
Creole dishes is "Gumbo" which
was originally the name Of a spe-
cial soup containing the vegetable
gumbo or okra, but the word be-
came gradually naisapplied, and it
is now a general name for soup.
Yet probably more delicious than
gumbo, is Chou Farci A La Creole,
which is Stuffed Cabbage, Creole
style. If you care for well sea-
soned dishes, this stuffed cabbage
served with rice will possibly be
one of the incest meals ever.
CHOU FARCI A LA CREOLE
1 large white cabbage
Y pound of sausage meat
large onion
or 2 tomatoes
Glove Of garlic
Thyme
Parsley
bayleaf
" chill pepper
"A few slices of strealzy bacon
Salt and pepper and butter
Remove the coarse outer leaves
of the cabbage and set them aside.
Blanch the cabbage in boiling salt
ed water for 8 to 10 minutes, and
then drain thoroughly. Brown the
finely chopped onion and garlic in
butter, add the chopped tomato,
stir well, and add the sausage
meat, the chopped herds, bayleaf,
and chill pepper, and season with
salt and little pepper. Mix all
well and cook for 20 minutes on a
slow fire. Open the cabbage care
fully and spread a thin layer of
the sausage meat between the
leaves, pressing them together
again. Put the large outer leaves
of the cabbage around, cover the
top of the cabbage with a few
slices of bacon, and tie UP with
string. Line a large saucepan
with a few more slices, lay the
cabbage on this, add few table
spoons of water, few sliced
vegetables, such as carrots, tur-
nips, and onions, and simmer very
gently for III hours. To serve,
remove the string, the bacon, and
the outer leaves of the cabbage,
and strain the sauce over it.
