 I always bake my devils food cakes in two layer cake pans which have been fitted with waxed paper. I don't put them in greased pans because the batter should have something to cling to at the sides when it is rising.

 I bake them for about twenty five minutes in moderate oven. During the baking I start mixing the frosting which I finish while the cake is cooling for about ten minutes on wire rack.

DOES ANYBODY WANT PEACE

How can the peace of the world be
maintained?"
The answer to this question is rather
important because upon the establishment
of peace depends the development of trade
and upon the extent that commerce grows
depends the level of living for all peoples
everywhere.
Theresis no way that we know of to
keep the peace of the world absolutely
without strife and revolt, not to say war
fare. All That We. can hope for is system
that viii promote peace by making war
fare unpopular. just as police forces today
tend to make crime unpopular by making
il Improbable.
And. there is the answer. make war
unpopular by making it unprofitable .
To do 50 will cost money and may cost the
lives Of some policemen. Not To do 50 will
mean turning the affairs of the world over
to the aggressive nations. the governments
ready. willing and able to wage war for
selfish purposes Meanwhile the peace
tal" nations can sit on The side-line and
see how much peace they get BY wishing
and talking

WHAT'S WRONG AT HOMER

After hearing lot about the way
wardness of children of the present, it oc-
Cured to Rev Clinton d. Cox of Chicago
to get the viewpoint of the youngsters
themselves, which he did through asking
It's boys to write freely their ideas on
What's wrong with the homer"
Among the answers given by these
boys, who ranged from Ia to 16 years of
age, were the following:
A boy wants mother who can keep
a secret and not tell the neighbors every
thing about him..
THE girls word is always taken and
the boys word always doubted"
Home is court room and every
member in the family tries to take hand
in raising the boy"
Parents never admit it when they
are wrong"
People who led the widest life be-
fore they were married are the strictest
parents"
Mothers try to hold other boys up as
models too much
These are only few of the answers,
but they indicate that boys believe there
are good many faults on the parents
side of the case, and doubtless that is
true.
Young persons will usually acknowl.
edge their shortcomings and accept re.
proof without resentment if they feel that
the parent is right and fair But it is often
difficult for parent and child to see things
from the same angle.
To deal with children firmly when
necessary, yet without apparent harsh.
ness, is not always easy.

FOIL THE SUMMER BURGLAR

Summer is here-and the burglar is
getting out his HOUSEKEEPING tools. There
are six burglary, robbery and theft losses
for every fire loss, according to the As
ISOLATION of Casualty and Surety Ex-
ecutives. The vacation months, when so
many residences are empty and unguardedl
provide ideal working conditions for the
housebreaker. He does not have to be
wary Of sleepers who may wake momen-
tal:ily and sound an alarm. He need have
no fear that a dogs angry barking will re-
veal his presence. He can work leisurely
and thofoa ghly.a
81 H persOns who are leaving their
homes nnoccupied even for short time
this summer will take the following pre-
cautions, they will add greatly to their
protection and peace of mind:
1. Lock securely all doors, windows
or other entrances to the house.
2. Inform the police that your house
will be empty. They can keep watch on it
and try the doors and windows at regular
intervals.
3. Take with you or lock securely all
jewelry, silverWare, furs, valuable cloth
ing and other articles easily converted in
to cash by thief.
A. Be sure to suspend all deliveries,
such as milk, papers, mail. A heap of
newspapers or milk bottles on porch are
sure signs that house is unoccupied.
In view of the increasing widespread
threat of the burglary hazard to property,
local citizens should take extra precautions
at this time of the year That is the most
effective way they can aid crime control
in the community.

LeOTBe FalSl, VINO naQ THIS 20 shy
about the wisdom Of governments in
dealing with economic problems:
Long experience has caused ne
70 come to the conclusion that the
economic crises of the world
which come from time to time
are the result rather of political
action than of economic action,
and can be avoided only when
the statesmen of all nations have
greater understanding of eco
nomic law and have some appre-
citation of the consequences Of
their own actions. Il may be
said that the statesmen Of the
world. taken as q whole. have,
since the war. and especially in
recent years, acted In such q mar-
ner as to bring the world ma
chine almost to a standStin.
In his analysis of the causes Of tho
crash Of 1929 and other chaotic con-
ditions throughout the world, Mr..
Wallace seems to forget the World
War and all the Embellishments gen.
Grated by that insane orgy. and he
seems to forget that 1t was govern
ment officials who were responsible
for 1t, He also overlooks the fact that
large proportion of the unsound
artificialities which were used to fight
the natural postwar economic reac-
tons and which contributed so much
to the Embellishments of the business
recession. were largely the work Of
government officials. He assumes that
government officials are wiser than
the millions of people who record
their desires and judgments in the
market places.
The Wallace economic analysis is
that of the coercionist. 1T is throw
back to government autocracy UNI
der which free men would lose the
freedom for which they have fought
for centuries.
Secretary Wallace IS reputedly .
religious man apparently desiring to
do good; but in this connection both
Mr.. Wallace and the public should
not forget great truth once stated
by David Starr Jordan: Religious
conscience tells us to do what is right
but does not tell us what Is right.
Conscience alone without knowledge
may not help US. The wickedest deeds
in the world were often performed
with clear conscience.
Mr.. WaIlace's conscience may be
clear. but with the passage Of time.
and II sound sense in economics once
more finds its way into government
circles and the heads Of the majority
of the American people. { should be-
come clear that the Wallace doctrines
are wicked reversion to reactionism
and to degree and type of govern
ment coercion which cannot char
acterize free people.
