THE GENTLEMAN CAN COOK

oNALD DEsKEY. one of the most
outstanding among our mod

mits that he is not only lover of good
food but somewhat of an amateur ex-
pert on the subject. Not" he says,

friends. l wouldn't dispute with a
man like Crosby Gaige. for example
But l do pay great deal of attention

When he has discovered a new dish
that particularly intrigues his tongue,
Donald goes home and tries to achieve
the same effect. II have the ability
to analyze tastes or favors," he ex-
plains. "You develop that. if you are
inquisitive about food. and travel
around good DEAL"
Donald's interest in cooking dates
from boyhood and his first camping
trips in northern Minnesota. Then
when high school days we're over. he
went West and worked around civil
and highway engineering camps, doing
a lot of cooking for hungry men, and.
later. in San Francisco, ingratiating
himself with the cooks in restaurant
kitchens. Then came his art student
days in Paris. where he got himself a
wife. and took on the job of marketing
and cooking in earnest - for his young
wife was studying piano and had a
more inf1exible schedule than his.
There he learned to make a thick
onion soup that is infinitely palatable
and almost meal in itself. 1t is a
speciality which he still likes to make

hot oven (375o F.) for hour. Serve
at once. Yield: portions.
A veal kidney flambe is also a
French dish which Donald Deskey
rightly recommends and which adapts
itself perfectly to our American in
clinations. For this you need two
tablespoons of butter, and two of
minced parsley, half a teaspoon each
OF basil or thyme and of minced onion,
one veal kidney cooked and sliced, a
wineglass of Sherry and a cup and
half of white sauce.
When the ingredients are assem-
bled at your hand. melt the butter in
skillet and add to it the herbs and
onion. Brown this mixture lightly
and then stir in the kidney. Now add
the Sherry and let the mixture simmer
for about one minute Then pour the

FOSTER SALARY
BACKED BY MAYOR
Mayor Perriello Claims He
Is Doing Work Two Men
Did Before

Mayor Patrick M. Perriello today
defended the $3.50 salary being
paid his secretary, Charles c. Foster,
declaring that Mr.. Foster is holding
down duties formerly performed by
two men. He also declared, in a
public statement, that the pay cut
imposed on Purchasing Agent Bar
tholomew Quilter, a Democrat, was
made because Of q raise given the
city accountant hired by Control
Ter Martin j. Sweeney.
The Democrat yesterday revealed
that Mr.. Foster, who is now oppos-
ing Mr.. Perriello for the Republican
mayoralty nomination, is receiving
pay 20 per cent greater than that
given Joseph T. st. Louis, the for
mer secretary. The slash in Mr.
cutters salary was also disclosed.
Same Salary Story Denied
In commenting on his statement,
Mayor Perriello said he had never
announced that Mr.. Foster would
receive the same salary as Mr.. st,
Louis. The American and The
Democrat both quoted the mayor as
making such an announcement.
Mr.. Perriellos statement follows:

mentioned the United States qualified to act there was
