,fpiIE selection of n steak depends
p fb ' entirely upon the number ot per
KL "" l!ons to be served. A stenk cnnnol
nnnot
fbe classed as a cheap meat; the
proportions of bone and trimminfr
tfmako this meat a rare luxury in
these times of high prices.
Yet there come times when the
men folk want steak and steak it
must be. There are three kinds of
meats that are cut into steaks.
namely, the loin, rump and round.
All three will make delicious eating
if properly prepared.
The round steak has the least
waste, and if steaks are taken from
the first three cuts they should be
tender and juicy, providing they aie
cut sufficiently thick and are prop
erly cooked.
The rump steak is fully as tender
and palatable as loin and it contains
about one-third less waste. The Mr
loin is the choicest cut in the whole
carcass and it contains a piopor
tionately large amount of waste.
Have the butcher cut the round
steak one and one-half inches thick
and then pound it with a meat ax
to break the tough tissues. Place
on a platter and brush with salad oil
and let stand for one-half hour.
Now broil in the usual manner,
turning every four minutes. Lift
to a hot platter and spread with
choice of meat butters given below.
Rump steak should be cut two
Jnches thick and the bone and fat '
trimmed. Now nick and score the
edge of the fat and brush with salad
oil, and then broil the same as for
round teak.
The sirloin steak should be cut!
two inches thick. Hnvo tho l.ntor I
remove the chide bone and then the
flank end. Let him add a piece of
stief. to tho flnn'K- ml , ,i it i
through the food chopper for ham-'
burg steak. It is a mistake to cook
the flank xvith the sirloin. Brush
the steak with salad oil and then
broil. Lift to a hot platter.
" Place one pint of water and one
tablespoonful of salt in the bottom
of the broiling pan to prevent the
fat drippings from taking fire. Turn
the meat every four minutes, so that
it makes the cooking even. To test
the meat when broiling press with a
knife; if it is soft and spongy it is
raw. Watch carefully and when
just beginning to become firm it is
rare. Allow four minntpo for ma.
.dium and six minute for xv-oll ,1. I
Do not turn the meat witt, -,-!,"
The intense heat has sealed or seared
the surface and caused the meat to!
retain ifs juices, and if vou nso a I
fork to turn it you will puncture or
make an opening so that these j'uices
will escape.
A two-pound steak will be cooked
rare in twelve minutes, medium in
fifteen minutes and well done in
eighteen minutes. Always' lift to a
hot platter.

MARRIED WOMEN MUST GIVE
UP WAR JOBS, SAYS SOLDIER
Overseas Man in Letter Scores Hundreds of Them Whose Husbandst
He Says, Can Well Afford to Support Them Asserts They
Keep Our Boys Out of Positions 1$,
TS THJjJ married woman whose hus-
hand Is making plenty of money
keeping the soldier out of a position by
holding on to her war Job? No less
than a soldier late of Franco writes
stirringly on the subject urgently as
serting that hundreds of returned sol
diers are being kept out of work be
c,auso married women who took po
sitions during the war on account of
shortage of labor now contlnuo in
them after tho war Is over.
The letter follows:
"I think It would be timely for you
lo call attention to the hundreds of
married women who aro keeping re
turned soldiers nnd sailors from get
ting positions by holding to the ones
they took during the war. I am refer
ring to those whoso husbands are not
in tho service, but who are making
plenty ot money and can support their
wives. In fact I have heard some of
these women openly boast that they
do not ha-e to work, btif that the
extra pocket money certainly comes In
good.

i-J these women go home, and that
thoy Rtart to run their homos us they
used to run them, now that tho war
is over; I actually know women who
have their chlldien shipped off to their
grandparents in order to be able to
go to work every daj'. These women
belong nt home. They aie unfair in
overy wnj- to their. husbands, to their
children and to the men who went
into the service.
"I had the good fortune to go to
France and fight for good old Uncle
Sam nnd also had tho good fortune
to come back and get my former po
sition. So you see I am not writing
In any particular sorehead fashion.
Hut day after day when I see these
well-dressed women flashing their wed
ding rings mound an office and know
there Is a line-up of good smart fel
lows, some of them not knowing where
their next meal ls coming from, wait
ing for these positions, it makes me
think tho married women are giving
