10 THE BEE: OMAHA. WEDNESDAY. JUNE 13, 1917. iy4 Jun. 12 Red Crosi Nurses at Horse Rices. Miss Edna Peterson, daughter of President Edward Peterson of the Qmaha Driving club, is a real "horse racing fan." She never misses a alliance to see a turf meet and each fall goes south to the home of gen uine horse-racing to see her father's prize-winning animals' comDete with other famous horses on the Kentucky green. "I can't imagine anything more wonderful than a good horse race," sne says. Miss Peterson's patriotism, though, is of such a brand that she carries it with her even when she intends to enjoy her favorite sport. When the driving club decided to donate a money above actual expense to the Red Cross she decided to help in every way possible to make the Red Cross sum a large one. Instead of allowing men to be hired for ticket takers and ushers, as was done last year", she offered her services for the wor!. and enlisted from fifteen to -twenty of her friends to do likewise. All day yesterday they sold tickets with great success among the bust nest men downtown. Today they made their appearance in Red Cross costumes at the race track, wliere they served as ushers, ticket takers and everything else that would help to cut down the cost of operating the course. The twenty who served today wil be replaced tomorrow by' some oth ers, who will in turn ask other friends ' to help on Thursday. Miss Peter son will be on hand each day, working like, the good sportswoman that she is to make the races a success and -thereby to pile up the dollars for the Red Cross donation. , The helpers m today s group were Misses Esther, Irene and Louise Car ter; Winifred Traylor, Rita and Marie Chabot, Esther Peterson, Agnes Sin gles and rrancas Robinson and Mes dames William Schopp. M.

No matter how enthusiastically and conscientiously we may be conserving our food supply at the present time, still we must sVt our tables and serve our meals. Whether we have a two' course or a five-course dinner, it may be served beautifully and carefully, thus adding to the graciousness of every day living. In setting a table the first point is the choice of the table "linen. No matter what the quality, the cloth should be beautifully laundered and spotlessly clean. Because of the labor involved in laundering table linen, the modern breakfast cloth is just the size of the table, and for breakfast or luncheon a set of doilies is often used. The breakfast or luncheon set need no be white, for natural colored linen is equally attractive and much less labor to care for. Some progressive housewives who have to consider the abor of the household find the linen doily sets as satisfactory for dinner as for the less formal meals of the day. And surely anything is prefer able toa soiled white table cloth. H a cloth is used, it should be placed on the table with the creases straight. bach place at table is called a cover, and twenty-four inches of space is. recommended tor each cover it pos- ible. J oo small a space makes for awkwardness both for the people at table and the maid. In setting a covet the plate and silver should be set parallel with the edge of the table if the table is square, or with the same curve as the table edge if the table is round. All silver should be placed about one inch from the edge of the table. The plate is first set, then the fork at the left and the knife at the ght with the blade turned toward the plate. The basis of all rules of table setting and courtesy is really common sense, and tt is sensible to ave the knife and fork nearest the hand that is to pick up each. On the ue with the knite, the spoons are placed in the order in which they will be used, the outside to be used first. In Clubdom Garfield Circle club will meet with Mrs. Gertrude lohnson Werin,lav at 2 o'clock to do Red Cross work. The Round Table thapter of the Chautauque circle, organized three years ago under the leadership of Mrs. "AV. B. Howard! gave a dinner Saturday evening at the home of Mrs. Howard. The class, which now num bers eighteen, has been meeting every Thursday evening and will be grad uated next year. The five original members, Miss Grace Grant. Miss Elizabeth Ryan, Miss Gertrude Bailey, Miss, Mktie Ward, now Mrs. W. T. Loomis, and Miss Rose Zurcher, now Mrs. G. E. Davis, are still in the class and have only missed attendance less than four times in the three years. Oxfords for Men Who Seek Summer Comfort For years we've made a study of mers Sum , mer Footwear needs, which fully explains why you can always be successful in se lecting the most comfortable and service able oxfords from the large stock which wecarry. The new atyles are ready for your choosing, and we doubt if you will find oxfords elsewhere which em body ao much comfort, style, ma-v . tenal and workmanship at our prices ranging from 1 x UfomeJScommcsJ&epartmept Co-Operation. , Readers arc cordially Invited to ask Mist Gross any questions about household economy upon which ahe may possibly give help ful advice; they ate alto invited to give suggestions from their expe rience that may be helpful to others meeting the same problems. ritKOM HOW TO ARRANGE A "COVER." Thus if bouillon, ice cream and cof fee are all to be served, the coffee spoon, is next to the knife, the tea spoon! next, and at the outside the bouillon spoon. The same rule ap plies to knives. The fish knife is far ther Ironi the plate than tnc dinner knife. On the left side the forks are ranged in the order ot use according to the same rule. At a very formal meal, where much silver is needed! ii it now customary to have only a mod erate amount displayed on the tabrc and bring in the rest with each course at needed. If a butter spread is pro vided, it is laid across the upper right hand part of the" bread and butter plate, or on the table cloth just above and to the sight oPthe bread and but ter plate. The water goblet or tum bler i placed directly above the knife, and the bread and butter plate above the fork. The napkin is placed to the left of the fork with the open corner toward the person that is, toward the plate and the edge of the table. There again the role of common sense is the basis for this idea ot placing tne napkin. Individual salt cellars may be used. or a pair of salt and pepper shakers for each J wo people, the Rwerpeo ole the salt cellar is to serve the closer to the individual plate it ii olaced. When the set must serve sty- eral people, it is placed further to the center of he table. The question of table decoration has already been dis cussed in this column, but the choice of a center piece may be mentioned again. For a small table theicenter piece may be tall, provided it is very slerfder, as a single flower vase. For a large table, however, a single flower vase looks lost, unless used with can dies. A tall, 'large bouquet should ,h.ere ,wi" l,ave to bfe cordial co-oper- never be used because iKobstructs the view across the table and interferes with table conversation. A low bowl of flowers is always pleasing. The new very flat pottery bowls with flower standards in the center do not obstruct the view because the flowers can never be solidly massed in the standards.

Each woman brings four pint jars, which she fills at the school. She also brings a large apron, a hand towel and a tea towel. If you prefer, you may buy the jars, at the school. V. A. D., Glenwood, la.: To pre vent a one-crust pie from -slipping down in places, you may bake it on the back of the pan, then slip it into the pan after it is bakei to fill it. An other method of preventing slipping is to fit the -erust very carefully into the pan and build up - rim. To make a rim allow about a half-inch of crust all around the edge, then pinch this extra half-inch back and perpendicu lar to form a rim. If there are any other points with which I can help you, I shall be very glad to be of assistance. Substitutes for TinCans A large part of. the high cost of living is accounted1 for by the cost of the containers in which many com modities are marketed; and one of the anxieties which surround the prepara tions for fffe conservation of food supplies and the prevention of waste in the immediate future arises from the certainty that there will be a seri ous shortagc'in the materials for cans. In anticipation of this difficulty the Department of Commerce, in 'colla boration with) the Bureau of Stand ards, has done a public service by the issue of a pamphlet giving wise coun sel to the canners and the public rela tive to possible substitutes for tin cans and to ways and means of off setting any possible shortage. There are certain things, of c&urse, I for the preservation of which tin is ! a necessity. In other cases tin con- tainersj. have assumed an advertising j value which makes their abandon- I ment a matter of serious sacrifice. But J there are a host of present uses for j which n o such plea can be made J and the government pamphlet re- 1 ferred to points out the large class f of food commodities capable of being I distributed in paper or fiber contain- J ers. It is suggested, moreover, that , large consumers can contribute to the national economy by purchasing in quantity, thus lessening the demand for smaller tin cans and boxes.
