By Sylvia Penn


have been busy, hectic days for
Tribune folk. Hardly had our big
subscription contest closed, with
the awarding of the lovely 1896
automobiles to l.. G. Blount and
Miss Bernice Brady, before we
plunged into the work of conduct
ing the Tribune's Cooking School
which was held in connection
with the Trade Exhibit at Forest
Club last week. We are pleased
to tell you that the cooking School
went over o. X. and that the Tri-
bune was given a big hand of praise
for same. The Tribune was also a
warded first prize for drawing the
largest afternoon crowd at the ex-
hibit. We also want to tell you
that there were prizes galore at
this cooking school, and lots of
fun, together with new tested re-
cipes and all that goes to make u
good cooking school. Already, the
Tribune is making plans for a
bigger and better cooking school
next year; so be sure to be there.
