is this sweep of the imagination
that has been captured on this
hand-painted shower ensemble.
The last in the aqua Classic
series is Dancer With Bouquet" !"
This is based upon a famous
painting by Hilaire Edgar Degas.
Painted in 1877, the original hangs
in the Comondo collection at the
Louvre, Paris. Degas roamed be-
hind the scenes of the Paris Opera
Ballet, enchanted by the graceful
twisting movements and gestures
of the little "monkey-girls. The
fugitive poses and unexpected pat
terms assumed by the ballet dane
ers were themes of perpetual fas-
cination for Degas, who even
modelled them in wax as pre-
liminary studies. The artists, in
adapting this painting OF a grace
full ballerina, accomplished the
feat of catching the spirit and
color of the original in striking
shower ensemble.
The curtains in this series come
in black, green, rose, blue, pearl
white. maize and peach with con-
trasting colors for the hand
painted scenes.

he Chef
Suys-

If you have an enterprising deli
catessen in your bailiwick, you
may be able to get fresh goose
nvers, and make your own foie
gras from scratch. But it is so
simple to buy the ready-cooked,
imported or domestic livers in
terrines at the grocery, that it
seems a waste of time. With one
medium-sized terrine of foie gras,
you can make that superb epicu-
rean dish pate de foie gras" with
very little trouble.
To the contents of the terrine
allow ! pound of fat pork and l
pound of goose fat. GA store deal
ing in foreign foodstuffs, especial
ly Scandinavian, would be most

ingredients. Season well with salt
and pepper, and moisten with

add them. Mix we'll, and put in a
quart sized baking pan. which has
been lined with your finest and
lightest baked pastry. Puff paste
is, of course, THE thing, but it is
so tedious to make that many
home cooks give it the go-by The

baked pastry, and press edges well.
Put the pie in moderate oven,
and bake it for hour, until it is
nice golden brown. 1t is wise, for
the first As minutes, to cover it
with a piece of paper to prevent
burning. When it is done, serve
hot or cold in the dish in which
1t was baked.

Special Lamb Chops

Tired of putting out lamb chops
in the same old way? Try these
as prepared by an Italian chef.
Get the butcher to cut you six
nice thick loin lamb chops. Dip
each in melted butter, and then
roll in breadcrumbs which have
been combined with 1a cup of
grated Parmesan cheese. Dip
each chop in egg, and again in
the crumbs and cheese. Put them
on a broiling rack, drizzle melted
butter over them and sprinkle
them with salt and pepper.
Broil under a rather low flame,
turning once. About 10 minutes
to a side should be sufficient.
Then serve them, piping hot with
icy cold tartare sauce.

A new line of shower curtain
ensembles has just arrived on the
local scene. Boats at Saintes
Maries," is one of the titled en-
sembles in the "Aqua-Classic'
group. This curtain is adapted
from an oil painting by Vincent
Van Gogh. Painted at Saintes
Maries in June, 1888, the original
hangs in the v. w. Van Gogh
collection in Amsterdam. In a
letter to his brother Theo, Van
Gogh describes his reaction to
the setting at Saintes Maries,
The Mediterranean at last-on

red, blue boats so beautiful in
shape and color that they made

in hand painting these plastic
curtains, have tried to use au-
thentic Van Gogh colors.

smart ensemble. Giacomo Puc-
cini was born in Lucca, Italy. in
1853 and died in Brussels on No
vember 90, 1924. Puccni saw the
play Madame Butterfly by
David Belasco in London and was

Punishment
By Angelo Potri

The history teacher was called
to the Office and the class was
left alone for few minutes. "You
can look over today's assignment
while I am out" said Miss Agnes.
No sooner had she disappeared
than a group began throwing
things about the room. A book
crashed through a window pane,
a board eraser went splashing into
the aquarium. shower of confetti
torn from notebooks f1uttered over
the room. which looked like Fifth
avenue on parade day when
Miss Agnes returned. She was
angry and small wonder.
who is responsible for this?"
Nobody moved, nobody spoke.
VERY we'll This class remains
after school every day until the
culprits are known and punished.
Meanwhile, you can go to work
and clean up this mess. We will
go on with the lesson this after
noon.'
At dismissal time the class re-
manned seated, all but jeremiah.
He was a big, overgrown boy who
had an afternoon job. Steady,
reliable, purposeful, he had had
no part in the disorder. He wrote
note and placed it on the
teachers desk. Dear Miss Agnes:
T have job after school I got to
go to. I didn't do anything while
you were out. I'm leaving now.
Yours, j. o.
Miss Agnes read the note and
her anger, already at high, rose
still higher. "Oh, indeed. Mr.
jeremiah thinks he need not obey
orders. Well see!"
Now there was trouble doubled.
The fathers and mothers of the
children detained day after day
rebelled against the idea of
Furnishing innocent children as
well as the guilty. Jeremiah's
father said some very heated
words to Miss Agnes and sent his
son to another school. Finally the
head of the school had to say.
Better drop the matter. It has
gone far enough"
Miss Agnes said in defense of
her position: do not many people
have to suffer for the mistakes of
few? Isn't that the way life is
and aren't we preparing these
young people for life's actual
ities?"
True, but humanity never ac-
cepted that idea as ideal, as a
pattern for men to follow in their
dealings with other men. Remem-
ber the village that was wiped out
in revenge for the killing of one
man? That day will live in in
fanny. The people of the world
will never forget and never for
give that crime. Better that one
guilty sinner go free than that one
innocent man suffer.
When such an episode occurs in
a teachers day, instead of at
tempting punishment she should
study the reason for her lack of
influence on her group and
change the setting. It can be done.

775,OOO construction program.
Bingham's stop gap plan ranged
from the change-ove of IS trolley
lines to the faster, cheaper, bigger
new buses on to better synchroni-
zation of the traffic signals along
Market Street.
His long-range program envi-
sions three subway lines leading
into Market Street, so patterned
that at some future date they
can be extended into San Mateo
County to the south and also be
meshed into a Cross Bay system.
''Some day." he told the city
fathers, "a single authority
should administer transit for
the whole hay area"
For small Yonkers, N. Y, his
recipe was equally drastic: unity
all transit services under one
agency to centralize service shops
and garages, standardize rolling
stock and permit easy public trans
fer from one line to another.

hour-a-day, hve-telephone man.
Besides the five phones on his
desk, he has another in his auto
and two at his bedside, so that he
can always speak directly to any
point in the system.
However, he still has time for
occasional fun and his hobby,
which is transit problems all over
the world.
Recently, he decided to outwit
the subway grapevine which al
ways anticipates his inspections.
Letting it be known that he was
going to l25th Street, he rushed
instead to Grand Central where
the system announcer was warn
