TENDER
Adaya; 14
{Prepared by the United States Department
of Agriculture.)
Many people think the meat of a
shoulder of lamb is just as tender
and quite as delicious in flavor as
the leg or any other part. The shoul-
der is not so easy to carve as the
leg, owing to the irregular shape and
central position of the shoulder blade.
This difficulty about carving is easily
met, says the bureau of home eco-
nomics. Select a shoulder of lamb
weighing from three to four pounds.
Have the butcher remove all the bones,
as well as the fell, or outer papery
covering of skin. The bones may be
saved for making soup. The shoulder
may then be stuffed, and either left
flat or rolled. The flat shoulder, as
illustrated, is easier to sew up than
the rolled, and the pocket holds twice
as much stuffing. Either of these com-
pletely boned stuffed shoulders can
be carved straight through in attrac-
tive slices of part meat and part stuf-
fing.
Wipe the meat with a damp cloth,
Sprinkle the inside of the pocket with
salt and pepper, pile the hot stuffing
in lightly, and sew the edges together.
Rub salt, pepper, and flour over the
outside. If the shoulder has only a
very thin fat covering, lay several
strips of bacon over the top. Place

the roast on a rack in an open pan
without water. Sear for 30 minutes
in a hot oven (480 degrees Fahren-
heit). If bacon is laid over the roast,
shorten the time of searing so as to
avoid overbrowning. Reduce the
temperature of the oven to 300 de-
grees Fahrenheit, and cook the meat
at this temperature until tender. From
2% to 3 hours will be required to
cook a medium-sized stuffed shoulder
at these oven temperatures. Serve hot
with brown gravy.
Mint or Watercress Stuffing.
3 cups fine, dry 6 tbs. butter
bread crumbs. 3 tbs, chopped
1% cup fresh mint celery
leaves, or 1% cups 11 tbs, chopped
finely cut water- onion
cress, leaves and 3, tsp, salt
stems, 1s tsp. pepper
Melt one-half of the butter in a
skillet and add the onion and celery.
Cook for two minutes and add the
mint leaves or the finely cut cress
and the other seasonings. Push this
mixture to one side of the skillet and
in the empty part melt the remaining
butter and stir in the bread crumbs.
When they have absorbed the butter,
mix all the ingredients together. When
using watercress allow the liquid
which cooks out to evaporate before
the buttered bread crumbs are added.
DINING ALCOVE
HAS MANY USES
Nook in Kitchen Provides
Place for Comfort.
(Prepared by the United States Department
of Agriculture.)
Do you have a comfortable spot in
your kitchen where you can sit down
for some of your tasks? We hear
much in connection with modern
housekeeping about saving energy by
sitting at one’s work, and there is no
doubt but that a high stool at the
sink or ironing board is often a great
help and back saver. There are many
other kinds of work done in the kitch-
en, too, for which one might be seated
if there was an inviting corner and
comfortable working surfaces handy—
shelling peas, stringing beans, picking
over fruit for canning, even peeling
potatoes and apples or capping ber-
ries, although these foods may after-
wards have to be washed at the sink.
One of the great advantages of a
“breakfast alcove” or “dining recess”
or whatever you like to call such a
nook off the kitchen is that it provides
just this sort of place for working in
comfort. The top of the table is eas-
ily protected by paper or oilcloth if
the work makes dirt. For many of
these tasks two people join forces at
times, and there is not room for both
at the sink, but here a sociable half-
hour can be made of an otherwise un-
interesting task.
A place for keeping track of house-
hold expenses, particularly foods and
kitchen supplies, is almost a necessity,
and in such an alcove there is comfort,
quiet, and order, and the records can
be attended to in those intervals that

when there is not enough time to
warrant going to another part of the
house to sit. Meals can be planned
here, too, with one eye on the left-
overs in the refrigerator and the oth-
er on the grocery order. A small shelf

for cookbooks and records might be
arranged at one side of such an al-
cove. Outside the window, a box
filled with evergreens or flowering
plants would add charm, just as does
a bowl of flowers on the table.
In a small house the alcove some-
times serves every purpose of a reg-
ular dining room. In others it partly
occupies the position formerly given
up to a “butler’s pantry,” between the
dining room and kitchen, where it is
especially useful for hurried break-
fasts and the housekeeper’s solitary
lunch. At dinner time, and on occa-
sions when there are additional per-
sons to serve, it is very convenient
for spreading out salad or dessert
plates to be filled, or otherwise to
take the place of a serving center.
The floor plan, which is from Farm-
1513-F, “Convenient
”
Kitchens,” shows one way of arrang-
ing an alcove so that it is well situ-
ated in relation to other features, of
the kitchen. The window may be
placed at the side or at one end of
the alcove as in the other picture. If
possible, alcoves should be located so
as to face away from, rather than to-
ward, the sink and stove. If the win-
dow frames a pleasant view rather
than a wall, meals and work will be
more enjoyable in the alcove. -
The illustration shows an alcove
which was part of the kitchen 1m-

have hinged tops so that they can be

but could have been made roomy |

Prolong Life of Hosiery
if Rinsed in Cold Waiter
Most women know that silk stock-
ings will wear much longer if washed,
or at least rinsed in cold water, after
each wearing. There is an acid in
perspiration that rots fabric. More-
over, there is another reason, and it
applies to all kinds of hosiery, even
men’s heavy socks. Indeed, it applies
specially to them. Scientists have
studied the effect of wear upon stock- |
ings with the aid of microscopes, and |
explain in that because the foot
presses unevenly upon its covering,
threads are stretched apart in places
where the pressure is hardest, and
with every day's wear, farther and
farther, until so weakened that a
break results, unless washing inter-
venes. Washing or rinsing readjusts
the fibers, releasing the strain, as well
as removing the corrosive acid. If
this is done while the strain Is yet
slight, the stockings remain practical-
ly as good as new, and may be kept
so for a surprisingly long time.
Experience has proven this to be true.

New Artistic Era Certain to Be the Result of
Real Span of Human Education Extends From
the Cradle to the Grave
By ANNA BELLE JOHNSTON, Nursery School Expert.
T IS too often assumed that education begins at the school age of
six years. Emotional personality and habitual slants begin at birth.
So should education. The child may be said to graduate into the
schools.
Children do not go untrained until six years of age. They are be-
ing trained somehow, somewhere, every hour of their lives. It is better
to know how and where—as in the nursery schools.
The responsibility may rest entirely with the parents, but many of
them do not feel they are adequately trained or have sufficient time or
proper facilities. No thoughtful person fails to recognize the difficulties
of the job of being a parent.
When families hecome convinced of the desirability of holidays for
mothers away from their children a great step in correcting morbid emo-
tional attitudes will have heen taken.
This should mean a daily as well as an annual period of freedom.
In the former it is the nursery school that is providing the desired sep-
aration.
The infant is in the nursery school three hours each day. This gives
the mother an opportunity to view her own work and a chance for recre-
ation while the child is receiving the scientific attention it should have
during these early years. The child is placed in a social group of 15
children of its own age with two trained teachers acting as their guides.
The nursery school does not assume all the responsibility. The
mother spends one morning a month in the school observing methods
followed in handling her child. After such observations the mother has
a conference with the director and discusses every phase of her child’s
development, thus setting up a link between home and school.
Nursery schools aim to provide a laboratory in which the student
may learn child care with real children as the subjects of their study.
Too many girls undertake the responsibilities of home and children with-
Public schools now are recognizing a responsi-
bility in this connection and in increasing numbers are including train-
ing in motherhood.
America’s Material Activity
By PROF, DE WITT HENRY PARKER, University of Michigan.
History shows that periods of high artistic activity usually coincide
with epochs of political and commercial pre-eminence, and into the lat-
ter we have already come. For better or for worse we have left the day
of the “whole mar” behind. In the growing complexity of civilization
the problems of life have become so difficult and so numerous that in
order to meet them each man must apply his whole nature to a single one
of them, at the cost of integrity of personality. Losing the “wholeness”
which is so characteristic of beauty, and being only fractions of our pos-
sible selves, we are loaded with longings and repressions and disfigured
with strange inequalities of character.
Mechanism will go on its unrepentant way, but play and art will
bring us the freedom which we lack. The harmony which we achieve
through play is accomplished by an exclusion of worry and work. The
harmony of art is one of inclusion, in which the whole resources of our
personalities are called into action. But, while in all forms of play and
sport it is.conceded that America stands the peer of any nation on earth,
in art, if we take the sweep of the last hundred years, she has not matched
the most artistically gifted nations of Europe.
We are now fast building a tradition and a culture of our own. The
mechanical nature of our civilization has created a need for art. And
that secure hold on economic wealth so necessary for artistic culture has
Need and opportunity will combine to make the future of art

Unlimited Possibilities of Achievement Offered
in the Church Life
By REV. ROBERT 8S. CHALMERS (Episcopal), Dallas, Texas.
To judge from the articles one reads frequently in all the greater
magazines today, the supreme activity of the modern Christian church is
either controversy or raising funds. One would think that the entire
energy of Christendom was being expended in the controversial issues be-
tween modernism and fundamentalism, between Catholic and Protestant,
between traditional and liberal.
To hear certain people talk and to read their writings it would al-
most seem as if the principal objectives of the Episcopal church was to
preserve the thirty-nine articles of religion; to read the equally fervent
outbursts of equally sincere people one would believe that the only saiva-
tion of the church lay in discarding those articles.
Through the school of applied religion the national council of the
Episcopal church hopes to create a different impression than that the
clergy are always engaged in an every-member canvass, or constantly
sistants learned that in all there had
been 16 in the hold. Protected by

ward. When his dog sniffed at the
magazine of the gun the shot was
discharged, according to the story told
by relatives.
Mrs, Ginder was with her husband
when he was shot,
seeking support in a large way. The national council believes that the
life of the church represents adventure more thrilling even than the ex-
ploits of Lindbergh; possibilities of achievement unrivaled among man-
kind today; human interest stories far more exciting than the most real-
istic fiction, and above all, opportunity for varied, interesting and worth-
while service.
| Treaty for Renunciation of War Inspiring Token
of International Love
By REV. E. B. DARLINGTON, New York.
The spirit of the nations who have approved the Kellogg treaty for
the renunciation of war is a token of international love. The best use
‘that we can have age-long life for is love. In the story of man we may
learn the story of love and look for its repetition in our own lives. Let us
picture our own human life as the scenes of the development of love pass
onward.
At first, in the dim ages of Plato's time, all that love desired was
the possession of beauty. Again, there is the kind of love where the lover
desires not only his other half, but possession of the beautiful and birth
in beauty. This yearning is the earnest of age-long life. Among man-
kind this is called biological immortality or age-long life.
The true order of love is to advance from love of one to all fair
forms, then to fair practices and lastly to fair thoughts. In this con-
pection, such a gesture as the ratification of the peace treaties would
seem to show the highest order of love in nations having advanced to the
conception of international justices

adults hadn't, but the small boys who
filled the gallery when the fire began
were still there when the picture was
resumed. It was a “Western,” of
course; a rip-roaring, hard-shooting
“Western” with muscular hero, incred-
fbly intelligent horse, sneering villain
and golden heroine. It was, as Steven-
