ers spirit means a daily discipline
of the mind, the will, the body to
the duty of the hour. To be good
human being Is the teachers goal.
That does not mean being lifeless
creature, remaining apart from the
thought and feeling and customs Of
the people about one. Negative
goodness is no good. Positive good
ness, the result of a decision be-
tween one way and a better way.
and the action that follows the de-
cision is what natures the spirit
of human being. You cannot be a
healthy, wholesome soul and live
under an umbrella all your life.
Teachers must live among people,
share their hopes and fears. their la
bors and their fun, and behave so as
to maintain their respect for them
selves while they cherish a liking
for their neighors. If you like liv-
ing your voice says so; If you like
people, children included, 1t says
so; if you are strong and sure and
honorable it says So Think on these
things and cultivate them so that
the children can hear your voice
and Obey it.

The corn fritters are simple. Just

kernel corn, four eggs, eight table,
spoons flour, two tablespoons of bak-

and one level tablespoon salt. Mix
all together and drop tablespoon

cook to golden brown.

SCISSOR.
A voice can express every emo
ton and every shade of emotion the
speaker feels. 1t can and it does,
like it or not. When the teacher is
unsure his voice tells it to the class
though his words are the words of
certainty. When he is afraid, an
cry, tired, deceitful, he cannot hide
it. Once he opens his mouth the
story is told though the words
might tell a different tale. But
when the teacher is sure and strong
and honorable and speaks to his
pupils they go along with MIN un-
questioningly.
The weak teacher shouts. He
seems to think that the class did
not hear him the first time, and
if he just lifts his voice they will
hear. They won't. They do not
listen with their ears but with their
minds. and it is the still small whis-
per of the spirit that speaks and is
heard there. If you want a good
voice cultivate a good spirit.

pressing talk is giving aid to the

Keeping up the home morale is a
Woman's job. 1t isn't an easy one.
1t is hard one. 1t is always easier

So choose the better part. Do your

sos to you"
Dear Mrs. Post: Is there any
social tabu against giving large
semi-public reception on a Sunday
afternoon? So many of our local
families are not free to 60 to affairs
of this kind on any day but Sunday.
Answer: I can't answer for every
community. But in great city
such as New York, for example, the
members of the congregations of
most churches do not object to a
Sunday afternoon reception in
honor of a distinguished person or
of an approved cause Socially there
has not been any tabu in any very
large community during the past
20 or 80 years. In fact, think we
would have to go back to the blue
stocking days of at least so years

gatherings on Sunday. For that

many people give parties of all
sorts on Sundays and many social

A teachers voice is an essential
part of his equipment. He speaks
with the voice of authority, and
his pupils hear him. He speaks with

Its effect is shown in the attitude

it has the essential quality of lead

heed gladly When it lacks that
quality they just don't hear him

There is only one way to get that
quality into the voice. Cultivate the

All of this is Southern and very
good to eat. If the gentle reader Is
a somewhat advanced amateur chef
and inclines toward careful mixing.
this is a lovely little dinner to serve
to a group of eight. And here is
how 1t is done:
For the proper timing the tongue
is prepared first. Using two tongues
weighing about 2 pounds each, boil
until tender. This may be done the
evening before, letting the meat lie
in its own broth until ready for use.
When you start preparing dinner
cook four hard-boiled eggs, cut into
quarter inch dice. Have available
an onion the size of a walnut, a
speck of mace and tablespoonful OF
-four rubbed together with the same
amount of butter.
Now 60 to work on the shrimp
bisque. For this you need two
pounds of canned or fresh-cooked
shrimp which you put through the
meat grinder. Then run a cup OF
chopped celery through the grinder
and follow with one bell pepper, also
ground up.
Make cream soup, using two
quarts of rich milk. thickened with
flour and seasoned with butter, pep
per and salt to which are added the
ground-up celery and pepper. Let
this mixture simmer to the desired
thickness. Then without letting it
come to the boiD add the ground
shrimp. Just before serving, touch
up with Worcestershire sauce
DON'T LET THIS BOIL.
Now for the popovers. These are
joy to make-and credit to any
cook. Better try a practice round OF
this intricate but simple dish before
you undertake it for company. Have
ready four cups of milk, four slightly
beaten eggs, two cups of -four and a
teaspoonful of salt. Mix this into a
batter. Note-No baking powder. II
you have an iron muffin pan, that is
best. Fill while the pan is cold tc
