A> Change For Sunday Supper •! ie a e many occasions when h, horn ihor wants to serve :v , . or . little out of the ordin- n- No \ when it is possible to l: . u ca’ -i all the various ingredi- -.U; which go into some of the rr.re usual Chinese dishes, this ypg of cookery offers possibilities for introducing a new note into informal entertaining. The Chinese way of serving and garnishing the dishes which they prepare is an inspiration. Many of the Chinese dishes consist of meat and vegetables which are garnish ed with match-like strips of cold cooked lean pork or white meat of chicken; these strips are arranged horizontally over the top of the chop suey, chow mein or other dishes. Tufts of parsley and quite the best looking radish roses com plete the picture. Three Mchtods of Chinese Cookery The Chinese practice three meth ods of cookery: Steaming, frying, and boiling. The Chinese cook uses what is known as a <; pumaiy soup” to give a superior flavor to all Chinese dishes and it is really the secret of the magic in their cookery. It is used in gravies as well as for the first cooking, instead of water. To make it, equal parts of chicken and lean pork are required —one-half pound each to about six pints of water. The meat is chop ped fine and cooked slowly for two hours and one-half, until the liquid has evaporated. In order to do away with the oil, the Chinese put into the mixture a bowl of chicken broth, straining it through a thick cloth until the liquid is clear or the oil is on the top, from which it is skimmed. It is then kept in a cool place. Anyone wishing to serve a Sun day night supper, or to entertain a i la Chinese, can easily duplicate at home most of the famous restau rant dishes. Instead of using but ter or lard for cooking, the Chinese substitute peanut, seasmum, and chicken oils for frying foods, and they always use a big iron or a steel frying pan. Syou is the ! Chinese Worcestershire sauce, greatly esteemed for the flavor it gives to any dish. The following recipes, offered by the National Live Stock and Meat Board, are for two very well-liked Chinese dishes. Chow Mein Purchase 1 pound of pork tender loin cut into strips 2 inches long. Heat frying pan and add 1-4 cup pork drippings. When hot add the sliced pork tenderloin and reduce the flame and simmer slowly for 15 or 20 minutes without browning the meat. Then add 1 cup bamboo shoots cut en Julienne (which simply means strips about 3 inches long and 1-2 inch wide), 1-2 pound of water chestnuts cut into shreds and 1 cup. of celery cut en Julienne. Moisten with 1-2 cup white stock and simmer gently until vegetables are cooked. Season with 1 table spoon of Chinese sauce and thick en with a little ccmstarch mixed with cold water Serve on a bed of crisp fried noodles and garnish top with egg and fry in large oiled fry ing pan without browning. Cut into threads about 2 inches long.. Chop Suey 3 lean pork chops. 1 bunch of celery. 3 green sweet peppers. 3 onions (more if you like) 1-2 cup rice. 3 bouillon cubs (beef) 3 cups hot water. Cut pork chops in small pieces and brown. Cut celery thin in two-inch lengths. Cut peppers in thin lengths, also cut onions in small pieces. Next you add rice, bouillon cubes which have been dis solved in the hot water. Cook slow ly forty minutes. x Eggs for lunch or dinner may be sherred, curried, baked with cheese, ~erved with ham, poached or fried, and with or without Hollandaise ^auce; scrambled with bacon bak ed in tomato cups, made into omelets, or baked as in a cheese suffle. Leaflet 39-L, Eggs at Any Meal, is a publication which may be obtained free from the U. S. De partment of Agriculture. It con tains many recipes for such dishes as these and other ways of cooking eggs for breakfast, in desserts, and | in sauces.

STEPHENS.—A mass meeting of the citizens of St. Stephen was called at the high school auditor ium for the purpose of considering the needs of the town now urgent by an abnormal increase in popula tion. Dr. R. E. Mason, chairman, after stating the object of the meeting, called Dr. R. S. Bailey, superin tendent of St. Stephen schools to explain more fully the reasons for taking action. Dr. Bailey gave an alysis of the health situation and very forcibly showed the urgent need for waterworks and sewers as the only safeguard to the health of the community. After some discussion, it was unanimously decided that the town must have these things so neces sary to the health and conveni ence, and the chairman was in structed to appoint a committee consisting of the Board of Health and one additional member to make a survey of conditions, make estimates and report at a subse quent meeting. Messrs. Osterman, Funk, Orvin, Gause and Dr. Mason were appointed. The matter of a local telephone system was then discussed, and al most the required number of names were secured on the spot. A tele phone committee was also appoint ed to report at a subsequent meet ing. St. Stephen has shown phenon- enal growth since the last census, 1920, having more than trippled her population. What were lux uries a few years ago have now become necessities. x University S. C. To Celebrate Home coming Day, 15th COLUMBIA, Nov. 10.—His Honor, Mayor L. B. Owens, of the City of Columbia, has taken a personal in terest in the University of South Carolina alumni Homecoming day and the Sewanee-Carolina game which will be played in Columbia on November 15 and has issued a special proclamation, calling on all citizens to help Carolina observe its fourth annual Homecoming in a gala fashion. Hundreds of loyal alumni from all over South Carolina and other Southern states are expected in Columbia to witness the battle be tween the Sewanee Tigers and the Carolina Gamecocks. This game will be a feature of the Homecom ing day program which will be held on the same day as the contest. And while the loyal alumni are writing and wiring Secretary Bar ney Larly for tickets to the alumni luncheon and the alhmni cheering section for the grid gaipe, Coach Billy Laval is busy {kitting his Gamecocks through their paces for the fifth Southern Conference con test of the season. When the alumni gathers in Co lumbia next Saturday for the game it will see on parade a fast stepping eleven which will give Sewanee more than a little trouble. Local fans are confident of a victory but it is pointed out that the Tigers have had a most successful season and that the Gamecocks should be more than careful. The University of South Caro lina football squad must be very fond of Tiger fights. When the Gamecocks play the Sewanee Tig ers in Columbia Saturday as a fea ture of Homecoming day it will make the third Tiger team that the Birds have met this year and still a fourth is on the schedule. The Birds are even in their fights with Tigers. In the battle with the L. S. U. Tigers the Game cocks won but Clemson evened the score for the beats. Sewanee and Auburn Tigers will offer the other opposition. X Do not put off repainting wood until the old coating has flaked badly and much bare wood is ex posed, says the Forest Service, U. S. Department of Agriculture. Long before the coating flakes notice ably, it fails to protect wood ade quately against weathering. This is especially true of flat-grained bo- aids of some species that hold paint well. Wood checks or cracks show that wood needs repainting even though the coating is appar ently intact.
