COOKIES FOR SCHOOL LUNCH If the youngsters had a vote, cook- ies would head the list of delicacies for that school lunch basket. With sandwiches, fruit and a vacuum bot- tle of milk or a chocolate milk shake, they provide just the nutriment value required for rosy cheeks.

PERFECT CUP OF TEA The Salada Tea Company offer the following suggestions for secur- ing the best results in making tea: ..-.Org Hitler Savors, Latest Triunph The figures that registered a 9 to 1 triumph f or Adolf Hitler in Germany's recent plebiscite are being scanned here by the leader -chancellor and his aides in the garden of the Berlin chancellery, after the vote had been counted. Left to right are Hitler, Dr. Paul Joseph Goebbels, minister of propaganda; and Minister Kerrl. Behind them in uniform is Adjuta nt Group -Leader Bruckner. First use a tea of good quality. Second use fresh water always. Third use an earthenware teapot. Scald out the pot to make it warm, place in it a level teaspoonful of tea for each cup de- sired and one for the pot, add fresh- ly boiling water, allow to steep for five minutes and stir slightly before serving. Tea made according to these rules will be fragrant and delicious. GOOSE LIVER SAVOURY Having cooked the liver inside the geese, take it out when it is cold, and butter, seasoning it with—safe, pepper and a trifle of cayenne. This mixture should now be spread upon pieces of toast or fried bread which have first been very lightly spread with thin mustard, the French vari- ety. FRUITS AS DESSERTS This is the time of year when the homemaker should make a special effort to s&rve fresh fruit dishes. Peaches, pears, plums as ' well as raspberries, blueberries and black-. berries are comparatively inexpen- sive and certainly high in food value. Serve them plain with cream, stewed or made up into any number of ap- petizing desserts. HAM SAVOURY Chop fine one .cup ham. Soak one cup bread crumbs in half -a -cup milk, add half -a -teaspoon each of dry mus- tard and celery seed, and a little pepper. Turn all into a saucepan small dish, garnished with slices of hard-boiled eggs. COLD AIDS COOKIES Cookie -making requires a special technique. Observe a few simple, rules and you're sure to have suc- cess with yours. First of all, in- gredients should be quite cold and must be put together quickly. Chill the dough before you roll it, dip the cookie cutter in flour before cutting each cookie and bake then in a hot oven. Elderly People Elderly people, when on a holiday, should take care to live a regular, simple life,' without undue exercise. More harm than good results from a strenuous fortnight which completely wears one out. Climbing, going for long walks, bathing too soon after a meal, are all potential sources of trouble to the elderly. Moderation should be their watchword. The Sunday School Lesson Lesson X1II.—September 23. Isaiah Counsels Rulers. — Isaiah, Chap - tars 7, 31, 36 and 37. Golden Text. —Thou wilt keep him in perfect peace, whose mind is stayed on thee; because he trusteth in thee. —Isa. 26:3. THE LESSON IN ITS SETTING TIME—Unsuccessful invasion of Judah by Reziin and Pekah, B.C. 737. Unsuccessful invasion by Sennaeherib, B.C. 701. PLACE.—Jerusalem. "Woe to them that go down to Egypt for help." Like all the other Hebrew prophets, Isaiah was a states- man as well as a preacher. He knew that the military strength of Egypt was grossly exaggerated, and he had no confidence whatever that Egypt would keep faith with Judah. "And rely on horses." Judah was a hilly country, and never could employ horses in warfare. "And trust in chariots because they are many, and a horsemen because they are very strong." The level plains of Egypt had always prompted that nation to the development of cavalry and the use of chariots. "But they look not unto the Holy One of Israel, neither seek Jehovah!" God to Isaiah is not simply high and lifted up, but he is a God of character. He is the God of Purity and Cleanliness. He is the God of Righteousness. "Yet also he is wise." Isaiah is tre- mendously sarcastic here. "And will bring evil." He will bring evil on those that bring evil upon the world, as Isaiah goes on to say. "And will not call back his words." God will not withdraw his warnings; he can- not, for they spring from essential truth. "But will rise against the house of evil -doers." That is, aganst the company of foolish statesmen that are forcing Judah into this baleful connection with Egypt. "And against the help of them that work iniquity." "Now the Egyptians are men, and not God." The Pharaoh of Egypt was worshipped as a god, and the people of Judah were placing their trust in the Egyptian army as if it were God and not a set of weak mortals. "And their horses flesh, and not spirit." The nobles of Judah seemed to rely on the Egyptian horses as if they were supernatural beings, able to charge against any foe and sweep them down. "And when Jehovah shall exercise his omnipotence, ful- filling the warnings he has uttered by his prophet. "Both he that help- eth (Egypt) shall stumble, and he that is helped (Judah) shall fall, and they shall be consumed together." • Both Egypt and Judah will be involv- ed in a common destruction. "For thus saith Jehovah unto me." God's word follows, in opposition to the foolish and empty words of the Jewish nobles who trust in Egypt. "As the lion and the young lion growling over his prey." Lions were common in Palestnie in ancient days. "If a multitude of shepherds be call- ed forth against him." As the lead- ers of Judah are summoning in their alarm the multitude of Egyptian horsemen and chariots. "Will not be dismayed at their voice, nor abase himself for the noise of them." The king of beasts with his roar will put down the weak shouts of men. "So will Jehovah of hosts." Jehovah Sa- baoth, the most majestic of God's titles. "Come down to fight upon mount Zion, and upon the hill there- of." Mount Zion was the original Jebusite stronghold captured by David. "As birds hovering, so will Jehov- ah of hosts protect Jerusalem." Listen to this expansion of the meta- phor of the hovering mother -bird in one of the Psalms: "He shall cover thee with his feathers, and under his wings shalt thou trust." "He will protect and deliver it, he will pass over and preserve it." As the death angel passed over the houses of the Israelites in Egypt, marked by the blood of the lamb sprinkled on door- posts and lintels„ and dM not slay the first-born there, so God spares his children and saves them from their doom. "Turn ye unto him from whom ye have deeply revolted, 0 children of Israel." Then, as ever, this was the sung and substance of the prophet's teaching, conversion; with that, all was hope; without it, all was fear. "For in that day." The day of the fall of the Assyrians at the hand of Jehovah, foretold in the next verse. "They shall cast away every man his idols of silver, and his idols of gold." In that day the Jews will see how vain was the Assyrian's trust in their idols. "Which your own hands have made unto you for a sin." "For a sin" means "to be to you an abiding cause of guilt and punishment." "And the Assyrian shall fall by the sword, not of man." The point of this verse is that Assyria was not to fall by the sword of man at all, but by the sword of God. "And the sword, not of lien, shall devour him." That is, destroy him. "And he shall flee from the sword, and his young men shall become subject to taskwork." As the young men of the Jews have been subjected to slavery. "And his rock shall pass away by reason of terror." "His rock" is understood to mean the king of As- syria. "And his princess shall be dis- mayed at the ensign," Instead of rallying around the flag, the Assyrian leaders will run away, "Saith Je- hovah, whose fire is in Zion, and his furnace in Jerusalem. God is a bright light to his people, and a con- suming fire to his foes, "And the angel of Jehovah went forth." The great angel wito in so many l3ible scenes stands as the re- presentative of the Almighty. "And smote in the camp of the Assyrians." This ntay refer to sonic powerful force which Sennaeherib had sent to press the siege of Jerusalem by sur- rounding the city, preventing ingress and egress. "A hundred and four- score and five thousand. This means, of course, that the invading force was very much larger than this very large number. "And when men arose Bary in the morning, these were all dead bodies," The cause of the des- truction of the Assyrian host was probably a pestilence infecting the low-lying frontier of Egypt, "So Sennaeherib king of Assyria departed, and went and returned, and dwelt at Nineveh." Curious, though true it is, that Sennacherib never came to the Westland again, during the next twenty. years of his life, pre- ferring to confine his campaigns to more profitable territory and less dangerous areas. Fabric Creators Allow Imagination To Play Fabric creators have seldom allow- ed their imaginations such free play as they have this year in styling nov- elty blouses, combinations for trim- mings, blouses combinations with plain materials and accessories, And seldom have such extreme ideas been snapped up so rapidly by cutters. The more "amusing" the material the bet- ter it seems to be liked, and it cannot be denied that these "amusing" fab- rics add much appeal to fall cost.. times. Some which have registered most strongly are heavy dull synthetic bas- ket weaves, covered with a raised pat- terning which looks like rows of tiny shirred ribbons, plain heavy crepes with tufts of shiny synthetic straw, faille with slit film or colored Lamin_ ette woven in so as to give the effect of pailettes, and fabrics whose surfac- es are covered with rows of synthetic yarn, silk, metal, or velvet pile fringe. Other really "amusing,' materials are covered with little shirred "headings" of self material which are sometimes in a different color to the ground shade and sometimes edged with met- al thread. Sheer materials woven in tucked effects are continuing also and are reported to be in good demand for collars, cuffs and sections of afternoon dresses. Vital Statistics Paul Rayson in the New York Sun By way of minimizing the First symptoms of senility One only has to heed the sage Advice of those who act their age Slow down a bit, don't be so keen On overworking the machine, At forty, even the soundest mai Had better formulate a plan To hoard the years like miser's gold Against the time of growing old. At least, such seems to he the gist, Of what I've read. But I insist That all this talk of powers that fail Can't make me emulate the snail! Statistics may appeal to those Who favor patience and repose; Still, I prefer to think myself Not quite ready for the shelf. Ponce de Leon may have had, Some crazy nations but the lad Believed his Magic Fountain would, Renew lost youth and lustihood. Honor to him whose hope ran high— Such assurance can't say die!
