Jealously Kept Secret of Dessert Delicacy While the rest of England walked hungrily by, the haughty Charles I, | guarding the secret of the recipe with | great care, sat im his pantry cram- | ming himself with luscious ice cream. | The greedy monarch, fearful lest the recipe might “leak out,” pensioned his French cook, De Mirco, who first made lce cream for him, with a bountiful | supply of “hush money” to keep the orocess secret. The first recipe for ice cream Is reported to have been published In Rome by Quintus Maximus Gurges. Water ices and milk ices were intro- duced Into Europe from Asia by Mar- co Polo. After this introduction, It was popular at the banquet tables of royalty in Germany, France and Eng- land. The first wholesale ice cream business was introduced by James Frussell, of Baltimore, according to the National Dairy council. He owned a dairy and utilized the surplus cream for making ice cream, The sideline soon proved more profitable than the original milk business. Although still a dish for kings, ice cream is now en- joyed by almost every one.

Detroit’s Future Seen by George Washington all the Among other evidences of the fore- sight of George Washington, newly the importance of Detroit as a water- way center in the development of the | nation. As early as 1784, according | to documents in the possession of the | Clements library of the University of | Michigan, Washington clearly foresaw and stated that Detroit—then a fron- tier village of a few hundred inhabi- | tants—was “a point through which the | trade of the lakes, Huron and all above it, must pass, if it centers in any state of the Union." Since he could not have foreseen the importance of rallways, Washington concentrated his attention on water- | ways as a means of making the North- | west territory available and proposed a series of them to connect the Great Lakes with the Atlantic. In support of his plan he carefully computed dis- tances from Detroit to eastern points, including Albany, Montreal, Philadel- phia and Richmond.

Among the objects found In caves and pits are 200 shell spoons, stone hammers, wood- en pots and other primitive utensils. The most important find In Professor Bennett's opinion is the fragment of a skull which he is forwarding to the Smithsonian institute. ————— Shaw's View of Life I am of the opinion that my life be longs to the whole community, and as long as 1 live it is my privilege to do for it whatsoever I can.
