Finally, says Lucy, what batter
is left (author's note: This seems
highly improbable to me) may be
kept in a cool place and added
to the fresh batter the next day
before the batter is set aside to
rise( oris it raise?.
"I like them best when the bat
ter has been added to in this fash
ion for two or three days or more
and when they have a slightly tart
and yeasty TASTE" says Lucy, and
added "better write that buck
wheat flour has a slightly sour
taste to begin with. Don't want
any bride throwing out good bat

False Claims By
Officers probed

WASHINGTON, Mar. 4. (INS)
Government investigation of 5000
unmarried military officers who
requested dependency allowances
for their parents showed that 1000
of them filed "unjustifiable
claims"
The total amount of these
claims, according to the general
accounting office, is more than
$1,500,0O0, of which the govern
has recovered about $4OO,0 900.
This was disclosed January %,
by GAO Chief of Investigations
William L. Ellis in testimony be-
fore a house appropriations sub
committee which was made public
Thursday.
Ellis said the probes have been
going on for two years and that

spoons light brown sugar or mo-

one cup milk (scalded and cooled)
one and one-half tespoons salt,
two cups buckwheat flour, and
one cup sifted white flour.
SHcald the milk and set aside
to cool; dissolve the yeast and SUI

lukewarm milk, salt, buckwheat
flour and white flour gradually,

BENNINGTON, N. j., March 4.
0NS)-Spring is a very fine insti-
tuition, worthy of popular support,
| said to myself this morning as I
waded about Wild Dat, inspecting
the fat buds on the lilacs, the ap-
pie trees and the forsythia.
The snow drops and the winter
aconite are blooming in satisfac-
tory quantity under the old pear
tree and the lilies of the valley,
to which | sacrifice a sacroiliac
when l planted them last autumn,
are pushing their way out of the
ground.
SLIPPING, | thought, is every
thing the poets say and they have
had an exclusive patent on the
season for several centuries. Then
it struck me rather forcibly that
if spring comes, can summer be
far behind?
That thought sent me leaping
to the te1ephone.
"You still got old fashioned
buckwheat cakes on the menu?"
I asked Lucy Aalholm, the guild
ing genius who owns the Doris
House restaurant on Main street.

only sad facet of spring is that it

Gerat Basin ChuckwaIla.

You encounter chuckwallas on the
desert side of the mountains in the
foothills. Their preferred habitat is
one of the rock-strewn slopes.
These mountaineers are noted for
their unusual method of defense.
They do not bite, neither do they
fight. They swell. AS soon as they
decide you are after them they
make for a rock crevice. Upon en-
tering the crack in the rock, they
begin to gulp air until they fill the
crevice so tight you simply cannot
extricate them
The only way to debate the
schemer is to tap him on the nose
This indignity is too much. Grad
ually he comes down, and, by the
time he is completely debated, he is
a slender fellow you can remove
from the niche.
The sexes are easily distinguished.
Male adults wear black on chest,
head base of tail and back legs. The
females wear densely spotted uni
forms. The spots. of dark brown,
cover head, chest and shoulders.
Four dark crossbands traverse the
dark gray rlmp. The juveniles are
marked across the neck and pack
with four or five dark brown or
black bands. The tail at all ages

But here is sidelight that is be-

Is. he seems unable to realize that
his arrogance costs him, too.
Mrs. Keen led the jack of dia-
monds and dummy's queen won.
Mr.. Abel saw that he might lose
three spades, heart and a club
After some thought he banged down
the ace and king of hearts. This
good guess brought no comment
from Mr.. Champion. Only the bad
plays rate his notice.
At trick four Mr.. Abel led a club
and fineSSed dummy's queen. Mr.,
Dale won with the king and was in
no hurry to try to cash spade tricks
He merely returned a diamond,
which won in the closed hand with
the king.
Mr.. Abel now cashed his other
high diamond, discarding a small
club from the board. He led to
the ace of clubs and returned a
small spade Mrs. Keen killed the
jack with the king and a spade re-
turn through dummy up to Mr.
Dales ace-ten completed the set.

make five, Abel?" sneered Mr..
Champion. "Are you finesse- happy
or something's"
Mr.. Abel made no reply, as he
already saw where he had gone
wrong His correct line of play
after clearing the trump suit was to
cash the ace and king of diamonds,
discarding the deuce of clubs from
dummy.
Next, lead a club and go right
up with the ace. Return the queen
of clubs and regardless of which op-
ponent wins with the king, he will
have to lead back a minor suit
card, giving Mr.. Abel a stuff and q
ruff: or spade, which automatically
would make it impossible for Mr.
Abel to lose three tricks in that
suit.
