Last year It was "one, two, three, dip!" that was floating hazily through the minds of our fair aoalety maidens. Now, it la cups of flour, teaspoonsful of baldng powder, a dash of pepper, a pinch of salt, spatulas, egg-beaters and carving knives which occupy their attontlon. A-weary of the dance, tired of bridge, bored with luncheons and teas, twelve of Omaha's loveliest young women have formed a special class where they will learn the first-principles of cookery. You might Imagine it was fudge, di vinity, chocolate eclairs and such like they wanted to learn to make. No, in deed! It was the regular bona fide art, like mother used to cook before father made a million, that they wanted to learn. "Praotlcal cookery!" they choroueed to the domestlo science instructor. So prac tical cookery she arranged to give them. Recelpes for meats and vegeta bles were accordingly adopted. Salads? Oh, no! They were surfeited with salads. Candies? No, indeed! That was bad for the complexion. But one delectable concoction they could not withstand. They were tempted and Omaha" chorus of twanty-two persons will take part In the entertainment.

These young women have already learned some of thi most Important baalo principles of the culinary art If any skeptic were to Inquire of any of thsm, "How is water heated?" he would be silenced by the unhesitating reply, "By placing it over a fire." If unconvinced, he should put this poser: "How do you fry eggs?" the answer would come with the calm dignity of , thorough knowledge. "Remove tho shells and place in a frying pan." (Cer tainly, silly reader, the eggs, not tha shells ere to be placed in the frying pan.) One could bet the crown Jewels that nothing like the incident of the man who boiled his watch while he held an epg in his hand will ever happen ttj these young women.

Observing, his glances, the tear ful bride exclaimed: "Dearie, 1 don't know what Is the matter with that pie. I must have left something out when I baked it." "It couldn't be anything you left out. It Is something you put In, that makes it taste so abominable,'' replied hubby. It Is said that the repetition of stories of this Ilk caused the organisation of this particular cookery class.
