Fern Young returned Sunday
to Radersburg, Mont, where
she will teach school this fall.
Amos Helvey, Frank McKin-
ney and Roy Mckinney, assis-
ted by Bradford j. Spear, and
Bert Jones, assisted by Patsy
Randall and Fern Young, were
among those who drove cattle
to Spear last week for shipping.
They stood night guard to keep
their several herds apart, but
on the last guard, someone
didn't keep close enough watch
and the herds mixed. Herb
Jones said it would have been
fine if that had happened on
first watch, then everyone
would have had a nights sleep.
Dom Davies and Torrey
Johnson spent Sunday, August
27, at the Eaton ranch. They
were having their last rodeo, of
the season, so the boys drew
horses for the bucking contest.
Dom rode his horse with his
usual grace: and Torrey drew
the horse who had thrown all
his riders this summer, and was
ridden in the finals at the
Sheridan rodeo, so he knew he
was doomed to be thrown. 1t
vas a great surprise to find
himself still on the horse when
the gun went off, but he had
great difficulty getting out of
bed several mornings the past
week.
Monday a tragic accident oc-
Cured in which Melvin Small,
10. shot and killed his small
sister. two years and ten
months old. Tom Small, his
brother, Henry, and his wife,
had gone to Hardin to buy
clothing for the children, eX-
pecting to take them to the fair
later in the week. Five or six
children, all younger than Mel
vim, we're left at home. The
children were all outside at the
barn near the dam, and Melvin
saw that his uncle had left his
gun within reach of the young
sters. He found it loaded, and
had unloaded all the shells but
the one in the barrel. When
the little girl appeared in the
doorway the gun discharged.
She was shot through the alb
domen and died almost at once.
The Small home is on the
Cheyenne reservation about five
miles below Kirby. The boys
vent to various neighbors for
help, and the policemen came
from Busby and Investigated the
case. Mr.. Small was located by
phone and returned home. Early
Tuesday morning the little girl
was buried beside her mother,
who died last spring and is
buried on the ranch, on a little
knoll above their house. Rev.
Eabegger conducted the serV-
ices.

But here and now. there is no need to

Small wonder, then. that diners
linger. especially since there are places
for all and no waiting lines of hungry
persons to make you feel conscience
smitten when you daily.
The chef of the Twentieth Century
feels that he has cross-section of
the food preferences, especially of
men. 1t is no surprise when he gives
first mention to steak and French fried
potatoes. But spinach and broccoli are
a little more unexpected, perhaps. And

might call regular herman" salad.

cucumbers and radishes, sprinkled
with Roquefort cheese and soaked
with French dressing. For the very end
of dinner men seem to like cheese.
A cheese tray with coffee when you
have men for dinner at home or for
Sunday-night suppers is a custom that
grows increasingly popular here in
America and it is one that Europeans
have long appreciated.
Lobster Newburgh probably ranks
second with the masculine diners on
the Twentieth Century. You drop
your diced lobster into melted butter
that has been made quite pink with
paprika. Stir the lobster into the but
ter without browning it. then cover it
with cream, stir gently while it heats,
add a wine glass of cherry wine (sherry
will serve satisfactorily as a SUBJ
stitute), stir again until the whole mix
ture comes to a boil. Now remove it
from the fire and stir in two we'll
beaten egg yolks and serve at once.
The recipe for liver with wine sauce
is another recommendation of the chef.
Saute the liver in bacon grease and
serve it with sauce made with beef
stock. white wine, sauteed mush-
rooms and chopped onions also sau-
teed Season and thicken.
Soups, according to the chef, are
extremely popular winter dishes. One
that he has found most successful is
pea soup favored with mint. Try this
at home. You will find it appetizing.
Pea and tomato soups mixed in a
fifty-ffty proportion are also excellent.
Both tricks are excellent to try with
canned soups. We recommend them
especially when you want something
little out of the ordinary.
Women, the chef tells us, almost
universally refuse potatoes. 1t must
be matter of figures.
Women, however, frequently can't
resist the hot breads which are so
popular with the men. Ginger bread,
