r 12 HIE TJER: OMAHA. SATURDAY. ANill, Coffee for a Large Crowd Brewing coffee in large quantities, to serve 50 or 100 or more person, is quite a different matter from coffee-making (or a family of two, or three, or four. The individual or committee in charge of refreshments at gatherings such as church socials, lodge suppers, receptions, bazars, etc., seldom finds it hard to get cap able volunteers to prepare salads, biscuits, sandwiches and cake. But when it comes to picking somebody to make the coffee it is time to hes itate and inquire whether the person, or persons, elected really undei stands coffee brewing on a large schIc. In' the majority of Rood hotels., dubs and restaurants coffee is in charge of an expert who, m addition to his own knowledge, has the back ing and advice of the coffee mer ..!... ,i..c &ialilishmcnts tne Reneral practice .. to .brew coffee m I large urn niiuc m r- pose The coffee cook at a churd social seldom has the advantage ot luch machinery and genera y is ' obliged to make coffee m a kettle or rpen boiler. It is quite possible, however, to make the very best cot fee without the aid of a ".penal urn pr other special mechanical appli l re, p ov ded the person n charge will follow the fundamental rules of Viantity coffee-making. Clean Utensils. The' utensil used, whether kettle. r? T. boiler, should be sPo s.y r can. use an r,"""' -Ti..' iarWin lined utensil if possible; lacking hat? one plated with aluminum or tin. An iron kettle will -ff Allow at least a pound of coHee foevery thirty cups of the finished brewlmore if the cups are unusual ly; large. If the guests include a large proportion of men it is best t0rProvidc for more than one cup to a person. For Thirty Persons. To serve thirty persons, put two gallons of fresh water m the kettle c r .boiler. Bring to a lively boil and ndi at once one pound of coffee tied in t a muslin bag-ordinary un bleached muslin. Then remove the boiler from the hot fire so as to stop the boiling, but let it stay on the back of the stove where it will keep hot. Stir the bag about in the water fotf about five minutes. Then lift out the bag of grounds and let it drain thoroughly into the brew before re moving entirely. Serve as soon as possible. .. Do not . alow the 'brew to bojl after the first boiling and, above all, do not let it cool. Coffee is never. ' thrf same atter reneating. the coffee should be ground rafter fine, but not powdered. The ba should be large enough to per- .nif free movement of the grounds an)! the free passage of the water through the grounds. , $ugar and milk or cream may be adjed after the brew is complete or served separately with the black coffee. The latter method requires more labor, but is more satisfactory because many persons prefer their coffee without cream or milk, and not a lew like it without any sugar. Like New Army Recipe. - She recipe given "here is, in gen , like, that used in the United States army. Main Street Keeping an Eye on Household Details The housewife may not need actual technical knowledge of plumbing, electric w iring, heating plants or how to grow vegetables, but she does need to be able to detect dis crepancies in the service provided by these agencies. Most people have a sort of mental laziness toward cer tain Mibjects about which they do not consider it their business to know. And this mental attitude keeps many women from making any effort to understand what is wrong when the radiators sits ui a new kind of song or the water pipes give fitful service or the vegetables lack flavor. But once women come to .in intelligent understanding of the causes of these imperfections in their household machinery they come also to a more interested attitude toward iliem. Another advantage in knowing why things go wrong is that it en ables cne to seek the most direct remedy. If the radiator's misbehavior is the fault of the janitor the house wife's problem is clearly defined, even if uncertain of immediate solution But if the flaw is in the installation of the pipes or Fixtures her problem is with ihe landlord if she rents or with the furnace people if she owns her home. If bad fruits and vegetables have come from a part of the coun try which produces flavorless prod ucts she should seek out a dealer who procures his supplies from another part of the country. But to do theso simple but necessary things she must first have some knowledge of- the principles of heating plants' and of the caprices of climate and cold stor age with fruits and vegetables. To know ' causes will help her to find means of eliminating annoyances. Union tailors in Spartanburg, S. C, have opened a shop which will be operated by their members only. Clotted cream . consisted of the clots of milk are produced on the sur face of new milk by beating it. Prune Blanc Mange One cup cooked prunes, sweetened, stoned and cut in quarters; IJl cups prune juice; Jj cup hot water; Ji cup ground chocolate; 1-inch stick ot cin namon; 'i cup sugar; 2 egg whites; 4 tablespoons com starch mixed With 1.3 run cold water.

Beat egg whites very stiff and gradu ally arid prune mixture. I'our into a mould and when cold, remove and serve with custard sauce made fcith the 2 egg yolks and 1 cup of milk. Prune Whip One-half pound prunes soaked and cooked. Remove stones and put prunes through a sieve. There should be one cupfulof prune pulp. Beat whites of three eggs very stiff and add to prunes gradually. Pour into a slightly buttered pudding dish and bake in a slow oven until firm. Chill and serve with custard sauce made of the yolks of the three eggs. A few chopped walnuts, if added to the prune pulp, w;ill improve this dish. Problems That Perplex Answered by BEATRICE FAIRFAX Tlio Married Flirt. Pear Miss Fairfax: A few months ago 1 was introduced to a young limn in my place ot business whom I have learned to love very dearly. We have gone out for qulto some time, but I have discovered that ho Is mar ried and tho father of a 4-year-old son. ' When T questioned him about it he admitted it, but Paid that he is sultiK his wife for a divorce, and as soon a a he frets it he will marry mo, also claiming that ho loved nip too much to tell mo tho truth at first. Now, Miss Fairfax, I know that I should (five him up, but I love him too much to do that. I will take your advice. He is wealthy and has lavished ex pensive presents on me. Should I return them and forget him, or keep Tip our friendship till he fcets his di vorce? JIKAKTHUUKKN. How do you know he Is telling you the truth even now?

Come Once and You Will Come Always 1608-10-12 Harney St. Douglas 1796 Real Values in Real Quality Foods Plays More .than one keen observer of the trend of American ; drama has maintained that truly national type of play would come out of the prov inces, not out of Broadway. Year after year, while the-provinces,' as well as New Yorjc, were entertained by typical Broadway plays, there 'have been those who were confident that time would bring to the United States and Canada significant local ized drama movements that would eventually have a national, and even an; international, significance. Experiments in provincial drama have been going on for ten years or more in the United States. Out of two localized dramatic- movements, the Provincetown Players and the Wisconsin WorRshop theater, have comdl two . of the most original plays' of this season irt New York, "Emperor Jones," by Eugene O'Neill, and "Miss Lulu Bett," by Miss Zona Gale. The work of Mr. O'Neill has been fairly well known now for three seasons, but Miss Gale, for all her established popu larity as a novelist, is a name new tq; playgoers in the larger cities, air thdugh her little comedy, "Neigh bors," has probably been acted in more rural American communities, during the past five years, than any other play. "Neighbors" was first staged at the Workshop theater in Madison, Wis., just as O'Neill's plays found their first hearings in the remodeled fish-house that was the first Provincetown playhouse. Trie Provincetown Players givethe first performances of Miss Sosan Glaspel's plays. "Neighbors" was drawn right from the soil of the middle west. It owed nothing to the French and German models that , have long been the foundations of " American farce, and it knew naught of the devices of the minstrel show and vaudeville act that are the stem from which the typical Broadway business comedy sprouted. . Neighbors," like Miss Glaspel's Trifles," may be taken as repre senting the beginning of a new American drama, a drama of the soil that was cultivated by James Heme 25 years ago, before au diences were prepared for the new scjiool of play by a thousand ad vances in the work of the popular "V playwrights. Miss Glaspel has vet . tot, have a long play produced in the regular theater, although her art. I judged from "Trifles" and "Bernice," is subtler and deeper than even that of Miss Zona Gale, as manifested in "The Neighbors" and "Miss Lulu Bftt." Bjt a "Miss Lulu Bett'is the first of the' plays of the new school that may be said to have . come sjraight out of Main street, arid have attained to a long New York run, special consideration is due to Miss Gale's comedy.
