can provide the lyrics to "You Were
There" that little known bit Of
Noel Coward which Johnny Shaw
plays for some special Mayfiower
customers. If you would like to hum
along with Mr.. S., the chorus goes
/ you were there.
I saw you and my heart stopped
beating.
You were there,
And in that first enchanted
meeting,
Life changed its tune,
The stars. the moon, came near to
me,
Dear to me, because
You were there"
OF course, If you don't think your
Coward repertory needs replenish-
Ing 1t is all right with our man. It
Is his favorite- without reference to
anyone else's taste.

A close-mOuthed fellow on most
subjects of night club conversation,
Harold Nagel who leads the band
In the Carlton, may be persuaded
into almost unlimited loquacity.
Just mention dogs to Mr.. Nagel.
Mr.. Nagel, in fact, rightly belongs
to the dog fancier class, his home
and Westchester County business
establishment being literally over
run with Great Danes, the dog that
looks like horse and almost is. It
wasn't always like that, however,
Several years ago Mr.. Nagel oc-
cupied the opposite end of the dog

said, bowing so that his chin all but
touched the table. How green Is
your valley?" He rolled his eyes.
That was enough to bring the
party up short. But later, as he
approached the table to deliver his
order, his eyes were rolling provoca-
lively again. His words: Here are
the viands, my children of the val
ley. And now, if there is nothing
else, shall 60 for a while"
1t may at least be said for Short
ages in general, that they bring forth
new and sometimes colorful ex-
periences.
Another of which, also involving
the shrinkage of manpower, follows:
Very close to backstage in a spot
which features floor shows the tele-
phone was heard to ring. Two or
three times it rang to no avail. Then
the band leader, who was sitting out
the intermission, became alert. He
sprang to the booth with no visible
qualm.
Shortly thereafter, the same
jangling sounded again.
This time the situation was in
hand Hardly had the echo of the
first ring died away, before one of

chorus line was at her manage

sary. Roasts must weigh at least
three pounds if they are to be cooked
without undue shrinkage. Leftover
beef may be used in hash, sliced and
heated In barbecue sauce, or ground
and mixed with celery, onion, and
mayonnaise for a sandwich spread.
Leftover pork or veal can be served
cold, shredded for chop suey, or
diced and mixed with rice and vege-
tables to make a one-dish meal, or
used to stuff peppers.
Even steak may be problem.
A good steak that is thick enough
for broiling is usually too large fo-
two persons. A porterhouse comes
closest to the two-serving size. But
if a larger steak is bought, the less
tender end may be cut off and
ground for hamburger steak, or
made into meat balls to serve with
spaghetti.
Vegetables can be changed on
their second appearance at the table
if they are served with a cream
sauce, cheese sauce, or holandaise
sauce. Small heads of cabbage and
caulifower can not always be OBJ
tanned, and even bunch of carrots
or beets may be too large. Part Of
these can be used as hot dish one
day, and as a salad the next. They
will lose none of their flavor by be-
ing held over one day.
As final point in simplifying the
cooking g-for-two problem, the home
economics specialists say avoid put
ting small dabs of different vege-
tables and meat IN regular size serv-
ing dishes. Either arrange the vege-
tables and meat attractively on a
single large platter, or I'LL the plates
In the kitchen and serve directly
from there.

BINDING TIES

Being engaged to servicenran
you haze just met is as untCise as
being married to him, Kathleen
Norris thinks. For the ties in
either case are binding and rare
ly lead to anything but grief for
both of you. You may meet
someone else, and so may he.
And each of you, if you are at
all honorable, ,UiH hesitate to
hurt the Others feelings. So
dance ,oith your sailor, soldier
or marine; meet his train tohen
he comes home for visit; tUrite
to him. But don't promise to
marry him!
The Ely miner., 1943-04-01

After the honeymoon is over, and
brides are settled down to cooking,
they will find real ingenuity required
to plan meals for two without vast
ing food or letting menus become
monotonous. Home economics spe-
cialists at Ohio State university say
even though the young homemaker
shops on a small scale, she should
use care in making purchases and
in selecting food.
It will be advisable for the young
cook to make a record of the num-
Der of persons a certain amount Of
food will serve. For instance, one
pound of prunes yields 10 to IL
servings, one pound of broccoli, two
to three servings; quart Of sauer-
kraut, five to six servings; and one
pound of ground meat serves five
persons.
Il the homemaker finds a large
IAN of peaches or other fruit is the
most economical to buy, she can
use part of the fruit as salad with
cottage cheese make shortcake
for dessert the next day, and serve
with toast for breakfast on another
day. By planning meals this way,
a few cents can be saved by buying
larger cans of fruit instead of small
cans.
Fortunately, there are some foods
almost made to order for the family
of two. Egg dishes can be made to
fit group of any size. Chops, cut
lets, ground meat, stewing meat,
sausage, bacon, or liver are eco
nomical cuts for the small family.
Many markets sell chickens cut into
sections so the homemaker can buy
as many choice pieces as she wants.
Sometimes cooking more than
enough for . single meal Is neces-

Natives Cured Disease
Through Vaccination

Oriental sore, caused by another
protozoan, is found in many ccun-
tries bordering the Mediterranean
sea, IN Ethiopia, the Sudan, the Con-
90, the Near East, southern Rus
sia, India, and northern Australia.
Il was early noted by the Jews Of
Bagdad that persons who had re-
covered from one Oriental sore sell
dom experienced infection with q
second. This fact led to their intro
ductien Of vaccination against the
disease, a procedure which has
since had wide use. Mothers infect
their children on some hidden site
and thus safeguard them from the
possibility Of later contracting dis

Areas where malaria, yellow fe-

rendered inhabitable by controlling
the mosquito population.
This is an enormous task, even
for small communities. But since
many kinds Of disease-carrying mos

Large-scale measures also are

sprayed with paris green or other
larvieide. The waters can also be
stocked with fish which feed on mos

presumably are repellent to egg

back, but don't promise to marry
him, don't get engaged again! The
war may not, and please God will
not, last very long, but however short
the time it lasts, it will change him,
and change you. He will 60 to other
dances, meet other girls. And nine
times out of ten you will have to
write him the hard letter that tells
him you have forgotten him, or he
will be racking his brains to think up
just the right phrases to break to
you the huniliating news that you
are Tilted.
So why give yourselves all this
misery? Why not dance with him,
and 60 about with him, and write
him letters, but when you must part,
why not say: Nov remember, !
like you tremendously, and if we
like each other this much when you
come home, Wen be married, but
we're not engaged" And in your
letters be sure to tell him that you
are going about pretty much as be-
fore, with this boy and that, and sign
yourself "your loving but not
engaged Alma? That will let him
know that he isn't breaking your
heart if he writes you that he wants
to be free, and will let you know
that the news of your engagement
to another man won't fall upon him
Like an enemy bomb.
Some weeks ago / had in this col
urnn a heart-breaking letter from a
serious, much-in-earnest, deeply lov-
ing bride whose young sailor hus-
band wrote her from Central Amer
lea that she must not announce their
marriage because none of his friends
knew of it, that he thought they
would both be happier free, and that
he had come to the conclusion that
five weeks acquaintance was not
enough time upon which to base a
lasting affection. And if this letter
is hard reading for a girl at home,
it is ever harder reading to a lonely
boy far away from everyone and
everything he loves.
Honorable Course Is Hard.
The honorable course for Alma is
a hard one She should wait until
Bill comes home from the war, and
then tell him the truth. He may
come home Indifferent, but he may
be one of the faithful kind who can't
wait to get back to his girl and re-
new the delights of their early love.
To have Fred, the older admirer,
with everything to recommend him,
deliberately attempt to wean her af-
fections away from Bill does not say
much for Fred's generosity of spirit,
but much has to be forgiven a man
who loves, and who may be sent
away at any time. Nor does Alma s
fickleness particularly reflect dig
nifty upon her character.
But for Alma's consolation be it
said, the chances are Bill ISN'T GO
ing to break his heart. The chances
are that those three delirious weeks
in New York didn't make a much
deeper impression upon him than
upon her.
II Alma writes him now, returning
his ring, and saying that she is
afraid the general excitement and
glory of that visit rather carried
her of her feet, and she would rather
not be engaged, and if she follows
up this letter with another friendly
note, and another, then she may
have an answer from Bill saying that
he understands, and that they are
having rather good time in Pan
anna City.
But on general principles, don't
marry your service beau. And again
on general principles, don't get en-
gagged
