MISSIONARY SOCIETY MEETS
LIGHT. FOOD is.what we cram
in the good old summertime
declares Dorothy Greig
IN some ways summer'meals are more difficult to plan and prepare than those of winter.
Families have a way of balking at the hearty meat-and-potato-and-vegetable standbys they
enjoy in cool weather. "I don't feel hungry", they'll say. Let's just have a bite of something
light." .
Well, there are ways of meeting thatsituation so that the members of the family will think
they are getting a ''light bite'lbut you will know they are eating the necessary foods that are
good for them.
The postponed W. F. M. 3. meet
ing of Methodist church ladies vras
held this week at the home of Mrs.
R. B. Hayes. The business meeting
was opened with a song and Lord's
prayer. It being near the close of
the year plans for election of on
cers, collecting mite boxes and so
liciting Thann offerings were made.
It was voted to send the required
donation to help on the seventieth
anniversary meeting of Topeka
Prai.cn to be held in First Church,
Omaha, October 4 to 7 inclusive
It was also voted to hold a program
at the Masonic Home in August and
a committee was appointed to ir
range the same.
A short memorial service was
held for Miss Elizabeth Spangler
who had been a faithful and inter-
teted member for many years and
secretary of mite boxes which sbe
pattered each August. It is desired
that each member and friend ol
the society will do her best to make
this offering one worthy of her who
had worked so faithfully in this de
puirmtnt.
The subject of study was "Stew
ardship." A short demonstration ot
the three phases were presented w'tl.
the candle service, green for prayei
by Florence Lowson; red for per
sonality by Jean Hayes; purple for
possessions by Marjorie Arn-Speecc
all of whom were Standard Bearer
girls of former years. Mrs. J. C. Low-

sang appropriate songs for each part
The president, Mrs. E. W. Thim-
gan, gave the lesson from the mis
sionary magazine, assisted by mem
bers reading a scripture and quota
tions on the subject. As a closing a
letter was read written by Edith
Able, a nurse missionary in China
to her cousin, Mrs. J. H. Graves of
Plattsmouth. She told of their ladies
missionary society of forty members
making an increase to one hundred
and twenty-five and giving an offer
ing for the year equal to two hun
dred fifty dollars of our money. Are
we less benefited by the Christian
religion and what it has contributed
to the status of American women
than the Chinese women and hov
do our incomes compare?
The society was happy to have
several visitors and hope thej will
come again. A Bocial half hour was
especially pleasing, visiting with
Mrs. Barkus, a former very active
member, being In town to spend the
week end. The hostess served re

WINS AN AC QUIT AL
Quite a little interest was arou?ed
Wednesday afternoon in the hearing
of a complaint filed by the city
against Phillip Hoffman, local tav
ern operator and which resulted in
the vindication of Mr. Hoffman.
The complaint charged that the
defendant had sold beer to a minor,
a local young man who has lived
here for the past two years and had
been a patron of the tavern.
The testimony of the defendant
and other witnesses were to the ef
feet that they had been told by the
complaining witness that he was
twenty-one years of age and had no
knowledge to the contrary.
The court after the hearing of the
testimony of the city and defense
witnesses held that the defendant
was not guilty under the provisions
of the city ordinance under which
the complaint had been filed.

Heat until the cheese and soup are
well mixed. Add the remaining soup
and then dissolve the soaked gela
tin in the hot mixture. Cool -and
then add ham and salad dressing or
mayonnaise. Pour into molds and
