Now girls you want to save those
recipes - Miss Turner is most
anxious that you have them before
sugar rationing becomes fact.
Replacing Sugar With Honey
In replacing sugar with honey
in a cake or cookie recipe, the
amount of liquid should be reduced
one-fifth for each cup of honey used
that is, of course, if you are using
your old recipe.
Perhaps the greatest difficulty
experienced in cooking and baking
with honey is the use of incorrect
temperatures. A scorched spot will
greatly affect flavor, so if you do
not have an oven regulator, use a
slow or moderate oven.

was set one trick, for the opponents
took their two aces; and then the
fun began. North claimed his bid of
six was correct but unlucky. He as
serted that South might have had
any one of a dozen types Of hand
with which six could be made; it was
unlucky that he happened to have
1t couldn't be made.
South maintained that the player
who opens with a two-bid is cap
tain of the hand. and that North
had no right to take stab at slam.
We agreed that the Blackwood con-
vention would have kept us out OF
the slam, but this is the first time
in a year that we have regretted
giving up that convention.
How should the hand have been
the Blackwood?"
The hand Is a born trouble-maker,
but North can stay out of trouble If
he doesn't hold back his informa-
ton so long. North might bid three
no-trump right over two diamonds.
although his hand is little skinny
for such vigorous action. II he bids
only two no-trump he should GER
tainly bid four no-trump over three
diamonds. In that way he shows
that his hand wasn't good enough
for an immediate positive response
but does contain enough scattered
values to warrant some positive
action.
South would easily read that such
a bid shows scattered kings and pos
sibly queens, but not an ace South
would therefore bid five diamonds
and North could relax with the GER
tainty that he had told his story.
North's delayed action backflred, in
the actual bidding and caused all
the trouble.

When dark-haired little Jean
Macarthur reached Australia with
her famous husband, General
Douglas Macarthur, she was sur
rounded by reporters, who asked
her for a message to the women of
Australia.
Her simple quotation, which
should be heard round the world
by wives of men engaged in war
or war industry, was this:
"Stand by your men and help
them as much as possible. I am
going to devote my time to the
General and young Arthur as I
always have done"
Jean Marie Macarthur, delicious
ly pretty, and tipping the scales at
bare one hundred pounds, was all
of thirty-eight, but looked no more
than twenty-five, when she married
Douglas Macarthur in April 1887
She was born in Murfreesboro

Nashville, and was raised in the
traditional southern manner, Neg

he fought for the type of army
and weapons he believed in. But
a nation in the throes of depression
was in no mind to listen to pleas
for tremendous armament expendi-
lures. Finally, after completion
of his tour of duty as Chief of
Staff, the general decided to re-
tire from active service and accept
an appointment as Field Marshal
in the Philippine Army.
While war clouds gathered in
Europe and over the continent of
Asia, Marshal Macarthur waited
and planned. He trained his Phil
ippine army intensively, and train
ed them for purpose. Finally,
because of the gravity of the ORR
entail situation, he was recalled
from retirement to take command

IN the rail- OF 1914, Wnen EURO
pean armies were at each others
threats in the early months of the
first world war, a young Ameri-
can, disguised as a hobo, shoulder
ed his way into a cantina in a
turbulent Mexican border town.
Relations between Mexico and
the United States We're tense then.
Pershing's cavalry was at the bor-
der, ready to ride into Mexico
after bandit chieftains. And Ger
man agents, already fearing Amer
ica's entry into the war on the side
of the Allies, were busy trying to
stir up trouble that would embroil
the United States in a war with
her southern neighbor.
Two Europeans were at table
in earnest conversation with a
roughly dressed Mexican. The
hobo" teeth clenching the bit of
a corn-cob pipe, SLOUGH hat showed
back on his head, took a hand in
the poker game at an adjoining
table. He played a few rounds,
paid his losses, got up and left.
A few hours later, bandits
started across the border on a
cattle-rustling expedition to the
American side. Waiting patient
ly at the exact point of their
crossing, was a troop of American
cavalry. The bandits pulled their
mounts up short, turned around
and went racing home before shot
was fired.
Today, that American is supreme
commander of all United Nations
forces in the southwest Pacific!
Army annals chronicle many an
exploit of Captain Douglas Mac
Arthur when he was snagged in
espionage on the Mexican border.
His work was, in fact, so brilliant
that before the finnish of the Mex
lean campaign he was promoted to
major and ordered to Washington
for staff duty.
Upon United States entry into
the first world war, Macarthur,
then a colonel, applied for field
duty overseas, where he was
wounded and gassed in the action
at Chateau Thierry.
Thirteen decorations for brav-
cry in battle, all received during
his service in France, now testify
to his reputation as America
''fightin general"
Following the first world war,
Macarthur, at 80, became the
youngest Superintendent West
Point ever had. Always a pro-
fessional soldier in the finest sense,
he devoted himself to an analyti-
cal study of the science of war
fare.
These studies convinced him that
the mass armies of the past would
not win battles in the future. Mo-
bile and mechanical equipment,
increased fire power from auto
matte weapons, and fast, death
dealing aircraft would be, he was
certain, the deciding factors in the
war which he felt was bound to
come.
