 The Man
By CHLOE JAMESON

If I were cook to a nice non- complaining husband who had no great love for greens, much as might appreciate their value in spring health menus, I'd never serve them plain; nor would I have them on a day when the menu was not otherwise attuned to his favorites in the food line. A man who is good enough to eat foods just be- cause they are good for him de- serves to have them presented in their most attractive doses and sandwiched in between other dishes that are attractive enough to make him forget his martyrdom.
 Greens. tasteless things many consider them. :. are anything but that when prepared with their proper trimmings. Have you ever served spinach with slices of hot,

Cantaloupe
 A La Mode

For a porch supper in the dog days, when the air is breathless and sultry, what would be your first choice for a dessert? Surely nine out of ten of you have answered, "1ce Cream!" and the odd one has prob ably mentioned either an ice-cold cantaloupe or equally ice-cold fresh
 peaches with plenty of cream.

 porch supper, for 1t is cantaloupe a

 The vanilla ice cream for which
 we are giving you the recipe is go- ing to be one of the easiest, incest

ELECTRIFYINC THE KEYS

Monroe County Commission Wednes-
day night appropriated $3.50 to assist in
making a survey of electrical demand on
Florida Keys from below Pirates Cove to
the upper end of Key Largo.
The survey is to be undertaken as re-
suit Of information reaching county Off
Gals that an electric power system can be
installed on the keys through the assist
ance of the Rural Identification Admins
tration, federal agency created by Con-
gress to help isolated sections obtain this
essential commodity.
According to word originating with
Georgia engineering firm, the government,
under certain conditions, would finance
and take care of initial operating costs of
such a system along the keys which are
not now supplied with electricity by any
organized system. One Of the conditions
is that some 800 prospective power and
light consumers from upper Key Largo to
Stock Island must subscribe sum of $500
each as a sponsorship fund. The sub
scribers would become the stockholders, as
it were, of an operating company. Direc-
tors of the company would be selected by
these subscribers to arrange the federal
financing of the project, then assume
operating control rT44
The Florida Keys are future gold
mire, in the opinion of competent observ-
ers. They are frost free and the tillable
soil is fertile. To make proper develop
ment possible two vital elements are need
ed-water and electric power. Given
water and power there should be con-
siderable development on the keys. They
may become Key Vests bread basket, the
principal source of this city's vegetable
supply. Prosperous FARMS orchards and
groves on the keys will give Key West
substantial back country population. Key
West is the natural trading center of that
area.
Undoubtedly the majority of citizens
on the keys will join with The Citizen in
hoping that no time is lost making neces-
sary surveys to determine the probable
power consumption on the keys and to UNI
wind all the red tape necessary to bring
about an early consummatiOn of this prof.
ect. We believe the county commission
acted wisely in Selling upon this oppor-
tunity to develop prosperous back coun-
try for Key West and to create new
source of tax revenue for the county.

FIRST WOMAN TYPIST

The worlds first woman typist, Mrs
Charles L. Fortier of Milwaukee, is still
alive and active at the age of 80, and only
a few days ago appeared as an honored
guest at business women's meeting in
New York.
Mrs Fortier had the opportunity to
become the first woman to operate type
writer because she is the daughter of it's
inventor, Christopher Latham Sholes,
Milwaukee newspaper editor, who pro-
duced the first practical writing machine
in 1867.
Sholes was assisted in perfecting his
invention by Carlos Glidden and Samuel
w Soute, also of Milwaukee. Attempts to
produce such machine had been made by
various persons for more than century
and half, among them being Henry Mill
OF England in TIA, Xavier Progin of
France in 1888, and Charles Thurber, an
American, in 1843, but Sholes was the first
to produce typewriter of practical value.
Mrs. Fortier was Is when she learned
to operate her fathers machine, and still
possesses one of the original models.

MINES SINK SHIPS

News from the war zone tells us of
the sinking of number of ships after
striking mines. This is new development
of the warfare because, during the first
ten weeks of the war, such sinkings were
almost unknown.
Recently there has been evidence that
German submarines are laying mines near
the British coast, in the shipping lanes.
The evidence is the destruction of vessels,
some of them flying neutral flags.
We wonder if there is any connection
between the new campaign and the with
drawal of American shipping from the war
zones. Other neutral nations, who lose
ships, are small and unable to make eff
fective protests against such destruction.
Is it possible that Germany waited for the
United States to withhold her ships before
undertaking this campaign which strikes
down neutral as well as belligerent vessels?
