SUNDAY DINNER

By ANN PAGE

NOOKING for two days at time in
~ summer helps to keep the kitchen
cool at least every other day. Cooking
may be done on Saturday to keep Sum
day an easy day for the housewife too,
since her family makes it a rest day.
If the two day plan does not work,
plan meals that use quickly cooked
easy to prepare foods, featuring salads
and fruit if the budget permits. A
good rule to keep in mind, however,
is never to serve a meal without one
hot dish, whether it be soup, beverage,
main dish CT dessert. 1t will help keep
away summer indigestion and tagging
appetites.
There has been but little change in
the average prices of foods during the
past week.
Seasonable foods make up the fol-
lowing menus.

This picture of an automobile
at the foot of sea wall was taken
after the tide went out. A few
hours previously it had crashed
through the iron fence and
dropped Is feet into the water at
high tide, after turning somer-
sault in mid-air. During the
plunge over the retaining wall,
the doors flew open, and the aged
woman passenger was hurled into
the water.
The driver who caused this
accident was also a woman, who
had stopped to take her dog for a
walk along the beach. Investiga-
tion revealed that she left her car
on an incline at an intersection in
violation of the rules of the Park
Commission. She did not turn off
the ignition so as to shut off the
power, or pull up the emergency
brake before she left the car. No

1t brings Shakespeare to its audi
ence as the master dramatist in

To an exceptional degree the play,
as written by Shakespeare, is in

AN UNUSUAL OCCURRENCE
William M. Armstrong, residing
near Wye Mills, has an eve which
has given birth to lambs twice this
season. The first lamb fell few
days before Christmas, and on
Sunday, May 29th, gave birth to
second one. The first lamb was
taken from the eve on the We'd
nesday before the birth of the sec
ond one. This is an unusual occur
renee. The period of CESSATION
with ewes is twentyone weeks.
A ninth district Cecil countyman
is working new racket on crows
and with success, too. He and his
colored boy recently strung lot
of corn on horse hairs and placed
it where the grain-loving birds
would be sure to get it. The crows
came and with their usual greedi-
ness pounced upon the prepared
bait and swallowed as many grains
as possible only discovering the
presence of the horse hairs when
too late. Those who saw the show
say it was fun to see the crows sit
ting on the fence trying to pick
the hairs out.

cation and to make good use Of

eyes to every advantage, as there
are many important facts not
printed in books, but which can

but not least, intend to conduct

1Onm A. Nunm Z y ICSCuLAL1tt
Of william Randolph Hearst reac
his message to the boys. An ex
cerpt from the Christmas message
states:
$50, IL yOu will, under the
guidance Of your publishers, col.
lect . representative delegation
from among you, 1 will be happy
to send them on a; trip abroad
this summer, so that they may
come home glOrying in the ad-
vantages Of their own free land,
and more than ever determined
to make themselves and of one
another, the highest type Of
loyal and successful American
citizens"
RESOLVED TO TRY
Upon hearing that message ]
made a silent resolve to do my
best to be one Of the delegation
that would be sent abroad. Well,
7 did my best and now am ready
to take advantage of the priceless
opportunity that Mr.. Hearst has
so generously bestowed upon the
. carrier boys Of The WASHINGTON
TIMES.
Although I will see as much as
the ordinary tourist, intend to
get more out of the journey by
studying other peoples ways OF
living, their governments, their
liberties or their lack of liberties.
That will be an education in
itself, when first hand informa'
ton on other nations is com.
pared with our own fine land
It is my sincere intention to note
the conditions that exist in re
gard to their liberties or their
Sufferings and to convey my in
formation to my fellowmen who
are not so fortunate as to tour
Europe.
Often Dreamed Of Trip
: In my minds eye, I have often
, wandered around the world
picking out buildings and places
of interest that I have always
considered to be most interesting
to me, and I believe the foremost
in that group are the WeStmin'
ster Abbey in London, the Vati.
can in Rome, and the Eiffel
Tower in Paris.
It may be questioned as to why
I chose those specially and all ]
can say is that they appeal to me
more because of their historic
value or because Of their impor'
lance. The art treasures in Italy,
the. canals in Venice, the beautiful
Lake Lucerne in Switzerland, the
Arc de Triomphe in Paris, the
but wait minute, I am forgetting
that the whole tour thrills me ana
that could name places in every
city and country that I would like
to see.
I would like to finish this story
by thanking Mr.. Hearst for the
wonderful opportunity that he has
afforded myself and the other boys
who are to go on the tour. I don't
believe there is a phrase or SEN
tence which describes my grateful
ness except II thank you" so Mr..
Hearst, from the bottom Of my
heart, IT thank you," and I hope
some day to thank you per-
Sonally.

THE BIBLE
BY Rev. E. G. Harris

The Bible teaches us of God as the
first great Cause. Time started at his
command. He wills and it comes to
pass, In the beginning God created the
heaven and the earth. God was first
before the beginning of time, and first
now, always has been, and is no older
today than he was ten thousand years
ago.

IS THIS ANOTHER
FR4NKENSTETN,.S MONSTERa

Three hundred malcontent laborers
in the Douglas Aircraft corporation
plant at Santa Monica have thrown
5000 American working men out of
work because three men were fired
The 800 men succeeded in shutting
down the plant because the corporation,
engaged in filling government contracts,
does not want trouble. The $500 men,
on the other hand, do not want to quit
work Yet they have been forced to do so.
Is this rule by the majority?
1t is hard for a disinterested observer
To discover any shadow of a reason for
the strikes which have crippled Ameri-
can factories lately. 1t is still harder
for the average mind to see why the
law allows such things to continue. And
it is entirely outside the comprehension
of most poor mortals that any public Of
ficial should issue the utterance recent
tly attributed to Gov. Frank Murphy in
the General Motors strike.
He said, in effect, that the strike
should be settled by conference, not by
force He said the day of using force
to settle labor disturbances has passed.
He ignored the fact, evidently, that
the strikers We're breaking the law in
trespassing, that they were on property
@Utlc JIlty Ildu flO IlSilI " NC, dlld llidI
they were doing irreparable damage
to the property and rights of other men.
Since when has it been wrong in Amer
lea to punish violation of the law, or
prevent violation, by use of force?
Are we to reason with all of our crimi-
nails? Must We talk the highway robber
or the murderer into ways of peace, con-
doning his depredations until the doubt
full arrival of the time when he decides
10 abide by the law?
There is no better way to encourage
crime.
The implied comparison is not so far
fetched The robber tries to take by
force that which he cannot otherwise OBJ
tain. The sit-down striker, as our coun-
try knows him, tries to force recognition
to which his size does not entitle him.
The kind of force used differs very lit
tie.
By encouraging the current wave of
sit-down strikes, even though it be by
ignoring them, the law is setting dan
gerous precedent The strength of the
law is built on public respect for it.
Once that respect begins to crumble, it
drops away rapidly When it is gone
chaos remains. No one and no thing is
safe. Civilization cannot exist in chaos.
