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

Now, every Thursday morning at 1ft
o'clock, our fair young- belles went their
way to tha cookery class. Dainty fin
gers which formerly wielded tennis rac
quet or golf stick, are mixing, moulding,
measuring, and rinsing pots and kettles
down at tha cookery class.
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.
There is a story coins the rounds to
the effect that a young married man at
tacked a piece of pia that his bride had
baked. 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. Certainly
it Is not the old saw, "The way to a
man's heart Is through his stomach," for
