Cornbre~d, pork and milk gravy
are a that appear together
in per- harmony. We think
that a nice pot of greens go well
with this group, if you'd like to
make it a quartet.
You probably need no advice
on the pork n gravy but just in
case you do, here's how. Fry the
pork until it is well done and the
extra fat is thoroughly cooked
out of the meat. Remove the
meat from the pan and pour part
Of the fat into your fat salvage

able persons have their efficiency
defeated and their influence limit
ed for the want of any organized
instruction and training for per-
sonal contracts. and how their
employment in positions for which
they have valuable qualifications
is made socially impossible by
vulgarities of speech and other
defects easily as corrigible by
teaching and training as simple
literacy."
There is really no reason foc
her neighbors to get their Irish
up over that because what Mrs.
Shaw says of the ppeople of her
husband country is equally true
of the people of other countries.
SAD AWAKENING
We have very real example
of what Mrs. Shaw is talking about
right here in America. Look
around you at many Of the people
who hold good jobs today even
though they don't know anything
about the simplest rules of cou-'
ltesy.
They have their jobs now be-
cause jobs are plentiful. But wher
jobs are scarce again, the en-
ployees who don't know how tt
behave in the business world are
going to be out in the cold.
They would benefit by a care
full reading of Mrs. Shaw's forth
right will.

Miss Mary Ellen Appleby, the othert
daughter, is serving her internship
In child-guidance clinic in Wilkes
barre, having received her masters
degree in psychology from Column
bia University last year.
Mrs. Finley now is with her
parents, as 1t Finley is overseas, and
probably will remain with them
through the war. She was married
in September 1912, after her return
from Honolulu, where she was
teaching in preschool nursery OF
the University of Hawaii Mrs.
Finley and her sister, like their
parents, were graduated from Grin
nell College in Iowa and Mrs. Fin
ley further followed her mother in
her study of child psychology in
which she took a postgraduate
course at Merrill-Palmer School in
Detroit before going to Honolulu.
Mrs. Appleby formerly was Miss
Ruth Meyer of Iowa and before her
marriage was high school teacher.
Since coming to Washington she
has carried on her interest in child
welfare, serving as chairman for
that work with the League of
Women Voters. She frequently at
tends hearings of congressional
committees, particularly when they
pertain to child health and care.
The past few weeks she has given
up all such interests and even
neglected her war work to find a
place to live, the house on Jocelyn
street recently having been sold.
She feels fortunate to have been
successful within the two weeks, al
though the house is not as large
as their present home or the one
they lived in on Bradley lane in
Chevy Chase for some years. AS
soon as they are moderately settled
she will be back again in her usual
persuits.
Mr.. Appleby came here some years
back as assistant to the Secretary
of Agriculture and later became
Undersecretary, which post he has
held for the past four years. He
was editor and publisher of weeklies
in Redfleld, Va, which work his son,
Loring, had taken over when this
country was attacked and probably
will return to when peace comes.
Mr.. Appleby still owns the weeklies
although his duties in Washington
keep him away from active work
as editor.
