proteins and carbohydrates and vita
minis and minerals-and still be q
drab and uninteresting affair.
That seems to be particularly true
In spring, when appetites are likely
to be jaded, and you seem to be
running out of menu ideas. And
that's exactly the time to try some
thing different, a little trick to add
newness and interest to soups;
a tasty and unusual meat dish; and a
salad or dessert that makes use of
some of the refreshing spring vege-
tables and fruits.
Just for variety, for instance, when
want to serve hot soup as the first
course Of meal, combine equal
parts Of canned consomme and to-
mato juice, simmer the resulting
mixture for about minutes with a
bay leaf for flavor, and serve it
very hot with a spoonful of sailed
whipped cream sprinkled with
chopped chives or green onion tops.
And I serve green onions and crisp,
succulent radishes in place of the
relishes I've used all winter. I use
rhubarb for sauce or for dessert,
just as soon as the price comes down
within reach Of my budget; / shred
young carrots, or cut them In thin
slivers, and cook them with an equal
amount of onion, sliced fine; drain
them and season with salt, pepper
and butter. Or cook carrots and
potatoes together and mash them
just as would for mashed potatoes,
to serve with the rich brown gravy
Of a pot roast.

he sent another message to congress
which contained this paragraph:
GAN the reflection have made
upon the subject increases
my conviction that the best in
terests of the country will be
promoted by the adoption Of
some plan which will secure In
all contingencies that important
right of sovereignty to the di-
rect control of the people. Could
this be attained, and the terms
Of those officers be limited to q
single period Of either four or
six years, l think our liberties
would possess an additional
safeguard"
Jackson's recommendation of a
single six-year term for Presidents
was echoed 40 years later when Ru-
therford B. Hayes in his inaugural
address said, "In furtherance of the
reform we seek, and in other i'm
portant respects a change Of great
importance, recommend an
amendment to the Constitution pre-
scribing term of six years for the
presidential Office and forbidding q
reelection"
In 1901 indiscreet friends Of Presi-
dent Mckinley began talking about
his becoming candidate again.
Thereupon the President promptly
scotched that talk by issuing a pub
lie statement in which he said:
81 regret that the suggestion
Of a third term has been made.
I doubt whether I am called
upon to give it notice, but
there are now questions Of the
gravest importance before the
administration and the country,
and their just consideration
should not be prejudiced in the
public mind by even the suspi-
cion of the thought of a third
term. I'm view Of long
settled conviction Il will not

The candidacy Of Theodore Roose-
welt on the Bull Moose ticket in 1912
revived agitation over third term.
One Of the planks in the platform,
adopted by the Democrats at Balti-
more, favored a single presidential
term and urged the adoption of an
amendment to the Constitution,
making the President ineligible for
reelection and pledging their candi-
date to this principle. A short time
before the Inauguration of Woodrow
Wilson, the senate passed a joint
resolution proposing constitution
al amendment limiting the Presi-
dent to single ssix-year term. While
this resolution was pending in the
house, Mr.. Wilson wrote a letter to
A. Mitchell Palmer, a representa-
tive from Pennsylvania, as follows:
'"The question is simply this: Shall
our Presidents be free, so far as
the law is concerned, to seek Sec
ond term of four years, or shall they
be limited by constitutional amend
nnent to a single term of four years
or to single term extended to six

III. PRECEDENTS AND VIEWS
OF THE PRESIDENTS
IF YOU are opposed to the
Il idea of any President seek
ing to have more than eight
years in the White House, the
chances are that you will cite
the case of George Washington
as your strongest argument.
"The father of our country
declined to run for a third term.
So why depart from the prece-
dent which he established"
you will ask.
If, however, you believe that there
Is no real objection to having Chief
Executive serve more than two
terms, you will also turn to the first
President. You will point out that
Washington retired after two terms
not because he was opposed to a
President serving more than eight
years but because he was worn out
with the labors in the service of the
nation and looked forward to a
peaceful old age at Mount Vernon.
Differed With Jefferson.
More than that you will quote
this letter which Washington wrote
to Lafayette on April %. 1888:
Though cannot have time OF
room to sum up the arguments
In this letter, there cannot,
In my judgment, be the least
danger that the President will
by any practicable intrigue ever
be able to continue himself one
moment in Office, much less per-
petuate himself in it, but in the
last stage Of corrupt morals and
practical depravity, and even
then there is as much danger
that any species Of domination
would prevail. Though when a
people have become incapable
of governing themselves and fit
for a master, it is Of little con-
senuencn from what nuarfnP he
comes. Under any extended
view of this part Of the subject
I can see no propriety in pre-
Guiding ourselves from the serv-
ices Of any man who in some
great emergency shall be
deemed universally most capa-
BILE of serving the public"

A Maiden And Her PRAYER

we get to America SO many men
and women forget their childhood
training and forget about God
and the Churches are filled only
on rare occasions. But here in the
silence of the old church we are
remined of the psalm "Seid stille
und erkennt dass ich Gott bin"
AS Rosa bowed her head she
prayed "Lieber Gott I thank you
for everything, but today | want
you to help me out. Yesterday

Rosa settled back in her bench
and looked over to where Sim
was sitting. His cheeks rosy
his eyes eager. Just then through
the silence of the church cricke,
began chirping. "Oh', thought
Rosa, there is the answer to my
prayer. And looking over to Sin
her eyes gave him the answer he
SO wanted. A look of deep under
standing passed between then
and the knowledge that Gods ap
proval was upon them seem te

Fifteen years ago, several young
Saxon people gathered together
at the East Side Sachsenheim and
decided to form a club. This was

Soon after this organization
was formed and had shown what
the Juniors could do. national
Saxon Junior movement was
started. and we have the T. S. J.
a. in these fifteen years much has
been accomplished to bring the
Saxon youth together and some
very happy hours have been
spent in this Association to-
gether.
This year, we have decided to
celebrate our fifteen years of
existance and we wish to have
each and every Junior Club come
and have a good time with us.
We are planning to have a ban
quet followed by dancing. We are
going to make every thing as
reasonable as we can: we will try
to have out-of-towners who wish
