CHEES1? DISHES
Cheese is not a seasonal food, but
the high percentage of fat which it
contains makes it a particularly
valuable food to use during the cold
weather when. the body requires ex-
tra heat. It's protein content should
not be overlooked, for cheese is one
of a limited number of economical
foods which provides the body with
the necessary tissue -building mater-
ial. During the coming months the
supper problem may be solved by
preparing such nourishing, appetiz-
ing cheese dishes as:
Escalloped Potatoes with Cheese
Wash, pare and sliver very thin-
ly, medium sized potatoes. Butter a
baking dish and place a • layer of
potatoes in bottom. Season with salt
and pepper and dredge with flour.
Cover with grated cheese. Repeat
until dish is full. Pour in sufficient
hot milk to reach top layer of
potatoes. Bake in a moderate oven
until potatoes are cooked (about one
hour). Cover during first part of the
baking.

all-important item—the Christmas
cake—here is a good ,line-up to re-
fresh your memory of the necessary
ingredients.
% cup butter.
1 cup sugar.
1 cup orange juice.
3 cups sifted flour.
4 teaspoons baking powder.
1/ teaspoon salt,
% cup seedless raisins.

KINKS
Curtains Stay Clean Longer
If you have trouble in keeping
freshly laundered curtains from be-
coming soiled by blowing out the
window, take a heavy thread and
fasten the ends with thumb tacks to
the side of the window casing about
'six inches from the window sill. This
prevents the curtains -from blowing
out and is scarcely observable.
With the Food Chopper
Fasten a paper bag over the end
of the food t 1 nipper with an elastic
band, when grinding stale bread for
breadcriunvbs, and there will be no
cleaning up process afterward.
New Use for Muffin Pan
For tacks, screws, nails and such,
use a set of muffin pans to keep them
in. Have a tinner solder a handle
across the pan, and it will be found
very convenient to carry about and
one can see at once just what is
needed. If added to this is a set of
tools that are found put up in a
hollow handle, a hammer and small
saw, one can repair many things
about the house.
When Diners. Are Late
To keep dinners hot, without hav-
ing them dry out, place food on plat-
ters and vegetable dishes on which
they are to be served, and put in the
oven. Leave the oven turned on full
and leave the door wide open.
AN ENGLISH RECIPE
Two or three kidneq,s two rashers
of bacon, pepper, salt and mustard,
two or three large potatoes.
Split each kidney in half, rub with
mustard, pepper and salt. Cut the
potatoes in half and scoop out a
little from the centre—large enough
to take a half -kidney. Place the
kidneys into the potatoes with the
cut side downwards, cut the rashers
in half, sprinkle with a little pepper,
and place on top of each half -potato.
Place two half -potatoes together and
tie with a piece of string. Bake in
oven for one hour or until potatoes
are cooked. To attain the best re-
sults, choose very large potatoes.

LESSON XI—December 16
THE CHRISTIAN AND THE LORD'S
SUPPER. -1 Corinthians 11 : 23-34.
GOLDEN TEXT—"For as often as ye
eat this bread, and drink this cup,
ye proc;aim the Lord's death till
he come. -1 Corinthians 11 : 26.
THE LESSON IN ITS SETTING
Time—Paul wrote his first letter
to the church in Corinth during his
third missionary journey, A.D. 53.-
56,
Place—The letter was written in
Ephesus, where Paul was making a
long stay of nearly three years.

The Earl of Birkenhead photographed with his fiancee„ the Hon. Sheila Berry, after the an-
nouncement of their engagement in London. Lord Birkenhead, who is 26, is the only son of the late
Earl of Birkenhead and of the Countess of Birkenh cad. He succeeded to the title on the death of his
father in 1930. Miss Berry is the second daughter of Lord and Lady Carrose. She is 21.
"For I received of the Lord." We
must remember ever that the Lord
himself instituted the communion
feast, and it is not a man-made or-
dinance. We go to it at' the invi-
tation of the Son of God. "That which
also I delivered unto you." What
Christ impresses on our minds we
are to pass on to other minds. "That
the Lord Jesus in the night in which
he was betrayed took bread." The
writer might have set down the same
night in which he washed the dis-
ciples'
isciples' feet, with the fine suggestion
of a moral and spiritual cleansing
before men should eat and drink at
the table.
"And when he had given thanks.'
Our Lord was in the habit of giving
thanks before every meal, in gratitude
to his Father who had provided the
food. "He break it." "And said." He
knew that, even after all his pro-
phecies of his coming crucifixion, his
disciples would not enter into the
meaning of the rite unless he un-
folded it to them plainly. "This is
my body, which is (broken, margin)
for you. "This do in remembrance
of me." This do means, Take this.
bread and eat it, as more clearly in
Matt. 26 26; Luke 22 : 19; Take,•
eat.
"In like manner also the cup, after
supper." This implies that the bread
was taken as part of the passover
feast, ais1 the wine after it. "Say-
ing, This cup is the new covenant in
my blood." The Old Covenant or:
Old Testament is the covenant the
Lord made with Abraham and his
people, sealed with sacrifices. The
covenant idea runs all through the
Old Testament. The New Covenant
between God and man was also seal-
ed with sacrifieal blood, the blood of
the Lamb of God, not needing re-
newal, like the Old Covenant, for
the sacrifice was made for us once
for all on Calvary.
"This do, as often as ye drink it,
in remembrance of me." In His in-
finite tenderness and foresight Christ
provided a universal and omnipresent
reminder of himself.
"For as often as ye eat this bread,
and drink the cup, ye proclaim the
Lord's death till he come." The Lord's
supper is a witnessing festival, and
evangelizing feast. It makes a pro-
clamation. It tells the story of the
cross.
"Wherefore whosoever shall eat
the bread or drink the cup of the
Lord in an unworthy manner." Not
merely, say Estius, with a mind dis-
tracted by worldly thoughts, though
that is not to be commended, but in
irreverent spirit, in a frame of
mind unsuitable to so solemn an act;
without faith in, or a thankful re-
membrance of, the great mystery
therein commemorated. "Shall. be
guily of the body and the blood of
the Lord." They are chargeable with
insulting the memorials of Christ's
death and so virtually the sacrificial
death itself; on the sane principle
that he who insults his country's flag
insults his country and is a traitorl and sacrifice of Jesus Christ, our
"But let a man prove himself." Lord: In the Lord's supper thus we

version. The Lord's table is not
to be approached heedlessly and
thoughtlessly, but after careful self -
correction.
"And so let him eat of the bread,
and drink of the cup" Let him take
heed of the meaning and purpose of
the supper, and so, — not merely and
then, but so, — in that manner,
in Christ's own way.
"For he that eateth and drinketh,
eateth and drinketh judgment unto
himself, if he discern not the body."
That is, if a roan does not partake
of the Lord's supper as a sacred
memorial of Christ's body sacrificed
for his sin, he is taking into him-
self, at is were eating and drinking,
his own condemnation. He is feast-
ing on his own punishment.
"For this cause many among you
are weak and sickly, and not a few
sleep (the sleep of death). We are
not always to connect sickness with
sin. Sickness is often due to inherit-
ed weakness and often to accident or
contagion. But there is no doubt
that God often does punish sin with
weakness, sickness, and death—pro-
bably far more frequently than any
amined ourselves carefully and so
avoided our sins), we should not be
judged." The penalty need not fall
upon us, because the sin need not
be committed. God never punishes
willingly.
' 'But when' we are judged, we are
chastened of the Lord, that we may
not be condemned with the world."
If the Corinthians were punished by
the Lord, it was for their good. Their
chastening was to free them from
worldly entanglements, that they
might riot be joined with 'he world
in its condemnation.
"Wherefore, my brethren, when ye
conn together to eat, wait one for
another." Some of the Corinthians,
in their greed, could not wait for the
arrival of the other church members,
one realizes.
"But if we discerned ourselves (ex -
but must fall to on the sacrificial
feast without them—so low were
their standards in those pioneer
days. .
"If any man is hungry, let him
eat at home; that your coming to-
gether be not unto judgment" Eat-
ing at home before the communion
service would prevent the display of
gluttony and greed which the apostle
so justly condemned. "And the rest
will I set in order whensoever I
come." Paul was soon to go from
Ephesus through Macedonia back to
Corinth. The abuses in the adminis-
tration of the Lord's supper were
reformed in two ways. The love -
feasts preceding the sacrament were
gradually abandoned, and the time
for celebrating the Lord's supper
was changed from evening to morn-
ing.
The Lord's supper is a great sym-
bol. It sets before us the incarnation
Should Mothers
Fight Child's Battles
the smaller boys s wretched and now
1t is evidently my son's turn. Re-
cently he forced Ronnie to kneel
down in the playground and before
a jeering ring of others, recite the
Lord's Prayer! I only heard of this
by accident from my. younger son,
who made me promise not to say
anything, but I am both indignant;
and worried. I feel like going out
and talking to this bully myself
next time he passes (he lives quite
near) nor complaining to his mother.
"Ronnie is quite changed and
looks thin and afraid. I know ,my
husband .would say that one should
ignore all this, and that anyhow, it
would 'all come out in the wash:
And my boy would hate it if I went
to school and made a fuss... ."
WHEN FUSS IS NECESSARY
But it seems to us that a fuss is
necessary here.
Bullying where it existed used to
be tacitly ignored by the scholastic
powers. Indeed many teachers re-
garded it almost as part of a curri-
culum which taught the youngsters
that to "go through it" without
squealing was all part of the game.
But not now.
School is recognised as the train-
ing ground par excellence for after
life. Here things begin to take on
relative importances and values. And
the whole scheme and system of
character -forming this implies is up-
set if a strong, cruel and thoughtless
boy is allowed to tyrannise over the
younger and smaller fry.
Our correspondent will make a
mistake, however, if she angrily
tackles the bully herself or speaks
to his mother who will, naturally,
defend her son. The matter is one
for the school to deal with, and one
day, without saying anything to her
children, she should go quietly to the
Principal and lay before him this in-
formation. Not because the coni -i
plaint specifically concerns her own
child, but because he should know .
about it, as an item of importance
in the life of the school.
For the modern school principal
not tolerant of ragging. Versed in
psychology, he knows the dire effects,
of bullying on tender minds, and the
complexes of fear and inferiority'
thus set up. He knows that one
overbearing and cruel boy can do
untold harm in a school, not only
among his wretched little victims,
but also in spreading the habit of
cruelty.
Generally Speaking "No"
But Some Cases Are Ex-
ceptional and Need Special
Handling
Should mothers fight their children's
battles?
To all mothers, this question looms
up, colors the earth, the air, the sky,
at one time or another during their
children's development.
There is the Big Bully at `school;
and there is little John....
"Oh, leave them alone," cries father
when she gets all worked up about
little John. "He will have to, go
through it sooner or later; and the
less parents interfere the better a boy
gets on at school. Why, when I was a
youngster—"
But mother interrupts impatiently.
For her child is always so much more
liable to hurt than his father. "John
is sensitive," she says. "He came home
today, his nose pouring with blood. It
was that horrid boy again. You know
Robert, that aloof attitude of yours
can be carried too far."
NOT INDIFFERENT
But it isn't that the father is in-
different. He loves his small son,
his little daughter, with passionate
tenderness. If he could he would
divert all pain, all harm from thein.
It makes him, who should be their
strong protector, their God, feel
futile when they suffer. If they are
ill the another can dash about im-
portantly, and do things, thrust a
thermometer into their mouths, get
hot water bottles, give a dose, stick
on a poultice; while he just stands
about, impotent, wrung by anguish.
When he sees his boys are having
a hard time, being "put upon" by
others, having their little noses
punched, their heads sat upon, he
would like to dash out and deal
chastisement where chastisement is
due. But he holds his arm. Sym-
pathy, he feels, is also out of place.
The youngsters must learn to figle
their own battles.
A MOTHER'S PLAINT
Whereas the mothers. . . . But
listen to what one mother says about
it.
"I want you to tell me just what
I ought to do," she says. "My hus-
band's business takes hien away a
great deal, so the responsibility of
bringing up the family devolves upon
me. I have a little daughter of
three and two boys, aged seven and
nine. They have gone to a new
school and at first were very happy,
but now I find that the elder boy
is constantly being set upon by an-
other, the bully of the school.
"This boy makes the lives of all

She need not worry that her boy
will suffer as the result of her visit.
The principal, if he is wise, will not
have the two boys hailed in front of
him to face the mother, thus spread-
ing the news in the school that the
smaller boy had "told" and there-
fore was a "muff." He will watch,
secure evidence, and take measures'
to deal with the bully, and see that
the tendency to cruelty is wiped out.,
Of course, in the larger issues, her
husband is right. Things that are
regarded as of great importance at
the time, do "come out in the wash."
And the young ones must learn to
stand ep for themselves. If they
come crying every time anything
happens and expect mother to go out
and fight their battles for them, her
hands will be full.
GAINING SELF-RELIANCE
And they will never learn self re-
liance and courage. Sometimes it is
necessary for a mother, however
much she loathes it, to stand by and
let two combatants, of whom her son
is one, fight it out. If they are
evenly matched, her interference can
do no good.
But, of course, fighting is a fool's
game; and children must be edu-
cated into thinking of better ways.
The only thing a mother can do is to
give her boys and girls a ground-
work of character which, because it
will enable then to see things
straightly and to deal fairly with
others, will sustain them through
troublous times.
Gaiety and light-heartedness arc
grand bulwarks against the pett3
storms of life. When the children
cone in with a long tale of woe, in-
stead of encouraging them to self-
pity they night be taught to laugh
at things. To turn the tragic inci-
dent into a farce, even when one is
the centre of it, is an art that cane
not be too early learnt; and it car-
ries one a long way.
