the first competition and advanced
through district eliminatlons TO the
New York City finals.
Here the judges were Mrs. Wen
dell Willkie and a number OF food
experts. Beatrice and the other
district winners went to the Ritz
Carlton Hotel kitchen and there
cooked their fish dishes. The prize
was a two-day trip to Washington
with all expenses paid. Beatrice won
again, and the coveted visit to the
Nations Capital was hers.
Five Washington honor guard
Scouts and their leader, Miss Jean
Thiele. met Beatrice at Union Sta
ton when she arrived here. She
was escorted to the Nutrition Con-
ference at the MayfloWer Hotel,
where she heard several speakers,
and then to the Girl Scout Little
House at Eighteenth street and
New York avenue NV. Beatrice
was chaperoned by New York
Scout official, Mrs. Ethel Moceler.
The washington girls fired many
questions at Beatrice, and she was
verv patient in answering them
while the group enjoyed lemonade
and cake. Other than cooking,
Beatrice said her only hobby was
collecting books.
Here is Beatrice's recipe for fllet
of founder:
Slice a half carrot and a quar-
ter onion Put in water with few
drops of lemon juice and generous
portions of salt. Roll up fllets OF
founder, stick with toothpick, salt
and cook in water at medium heat
for Is minutes.
Use a double boiler for the sauce,
mixing 2 tablespoonfuls of but
ter with IL teaspoonfuls of flour
and 7 to tablespoonfuls of the tlsh
cooking water. Add a mixture OF
egg yolk and 2 tablespoonfuls
of milk to the contents of the sauce
pan and stir to desired thickness.
Add a few drops of lemon, and salt
and pepper to taste. Serve With
garnish of chopped parsley and
radiShes.
Beatrice enjoyed quite a round OF
activities in Washington, staying IN
a downtown hotel, visiting Mrs.
Roosevelt at the White House and
calling on the Undersecretary OF In
terror. She spent most of her second
day here sightseeing in an official
Girl Scout car.
Her competitive fish cooking Is
not over with, however. Next fall
she will compete with the champion
Boy Scout fish cook OF New YORK.

BY JUNE DAVIS, Is,
Powell Junior High School.
Upon the ridge with stately grace
A stallion stands with head held
high.
Watching DER his grazing herd,
A silhouette against the sky.
And as he stands the sun swings
down
To nestle in the mountains snow,
Then lingering, wishing it could stay,
Sends back to them one dying
glow.
But still upon the lofty hill
The stallion waits and looks afar,
Until up in the brooding sky,
Just breaking through glisten-

that Scathach had ordered that
he was not to go into battle. He
snatched up a shield and sword
and dashed out Of the strong
hold.
He came up with the host as
they were forming their battle
line. Already two of Scathach's
sons were engaged in combat
with three of Aefa's warriors.
Cuchullain heard Scathach groan:
she feared that the two would
be slain by Aefa's three, and that
Aefa would single her out and
fight with and Stay her. He heard
Scathach say. IF we could en-

IA cares for her chariot, her
horses, and her charioteer-we
might draw her away from the
battle"

So amazed was he at the sight
of her that his arm weakened.
She struck at him and cut the
sword from his hand. He would
have fallen from her next stroke
if he had not remembered what
Scathach had said, and
Woe! Aefa's chariot, her two
horses and her charioteer, have
fallen into the glen" he cried.
She turned at that, and Cuchul-
lain sprang forward and caught
her under her breasts. Throwing
her across his shoulder he dashed
away with her, carrying her as
a porter's load He threw her on
the ground, and wrestling her
sword from her stood above her.

NOTE ON THE PICTIsH PEOPLE

THE Pictish people who had
! small kingdom in the north
of Ireland and an important
kingdom in Scotland passed out
of history without leaving any
sure relics of their language or
their traditions. One thing, how
ever, is known about them: chill
dren were named from their
mothers. descent was traced
through the mother, not through
the father Women must have
had an outstanding place in the
social organization The Gaels
Of Ireland who knew the Picts
in Ireland and IN Scotland would
have dramatized this feminine
prominence by representing the
Pictish women az Amazons.
such dramatizathon is probably
behind the story of Cuchullain's
training in arms by Scathach. He
goes to Scotland which was Pic
fish territory. There events
which were TO have a great bear
ing on his after-life take place:

she rose she gave nm the
kisses a warrior gives TO a war
rior after they have fought. She
had her trumpets sounded and
her ranks withdrew from the
field. To Scathach she gave the
best of her youths for hostages,
and she went back to her own
territory.
A S FOR Cuchullain, for a while
~ longer he stayed in Scathach's
stronghold, exercising with the
other youths. learning new battle
feats by the yew tree. Scathach
praised him, prophesying that his
name would be known through
the whole of ireland and as far
as Scotland. Uathach did not
praise him nor prophesy good
things for him. She made a ram
in the Saxon language saying
that the Gae Bolga would be
welded 10 his own misery, and
that not once but often. In a
bitter voice she chanted the ram
as he went from Scathach's
stronghold.
Then he was with Aefa; he
loved her, and love for him grew
in that strange woman who cared
only for her horses, her chariot,
and her charioteer, and for her
charioteer only for his skin.
Cuchullain was not long in
Aefas territory before messages
came from Concobar bidding him
return TO Enain Macha. When
he left, he told Aefa that if she
bore a son she was TO send him
to him in Ireland she was To
send him when the arm-ring he
left her would stay on the boys

was prophesying woeful things,
saying misery would come to
him because of his life with Aefa.
But how could she or anyone
know what misery was to come?
With the Gae BClga he slew
Fardia. And afterwards he
fought with a youth who would
tell his name to no man and stew
him with the Gae Bolga on the
strand of Muirthevna
When he was dying ne knew
who the youth was. Taking him
in his arms he brought him where
