Woman*s World By MAIR M. MORGAN 'A Woman'* PUee It In th« Hom*.* Cherry Season Here Baskets and baskets of plump red eherriea are now being loaded on the lake boats â€" the first cherries from the fruit belt district. Everyone on the boats Is beseiging the baggage rooms lo buy some of the "Little Red Men" %a the old nursery riddle (filed them. Usually the first cherries are expen- ilve, but this year the six quarts baa- Icets are now less than a half dollar. Like other fruits their season won't be long because of the extreme heat ind the high winds. Cherries can well, and make dellci- >as jams and jellies. To conserre the Jaror for winter use, only fully ripe, Iresh cherries should be used. A sec- tnd grade fruit will give a second or Ihird grade poduct, paticularly in can- alng, for one bad cherry will spoil the |ar. Simply made and at low cost is a iparkling cherry jam, exactly the color »( the fresh fruit. Cherry Jam (except wild cherry or chokecherry) 4 cups (2 lbs.) prepared fruit, 7 cups (3 lbs.) sugar, 1 cup bottled fruit pec- tin. Pit about 2V2 lbs. fully ripe cher- ries. Crush thoroughly or grind, add fj cup (2 oz.) water, bring to a boil, fover and simmer 15 minutes. (For Uronger flavor, add V4 teaspoon al- Sioud extract before pouring). Mea- sure sugar into large kettle. Add pre- Sared fruit, packing each cup solidly ^nd filling up the last cup or making Sp weight with water, it necessary. Mix well and bring to a full rolling ^ W before and while boiling. Boil hard } minutes. Remove from fire and stir k pectin. Then stir and skim by furns for just 5 minutes to cool slight- er to prevent floating fruit. With whole cherries, ladle off a few glasses of hot clear sprup for jelly. Then fruit will riot float, pour quickly. Seal hot jam lit once with paraffin wax. Makes about 11 eight-ounce jars. Buffet Suppers Cold buffet suppers are most palat- able on hot summer nights. Arrange all the food on one end of the table. Place plates, silver, napkins and pitch- ers of iced drinks on the other end. Remember that a great deal of the success of your supper party dependa" on the artistic and appetizing appear- ance of the table. Your menu might consist of a couple of cold salads served ii>'big bowls garnished with crisp salad greens; cold cuts of meat, pickles, hot rolls, celery and anything else you like for supper. Desserts should be made simply so that they too may b^^ served buffet style. A platter of assorted cheeses with crisp crackers will add to the beauty of the table and he delicious as well. Tricky Simple Things The simplest things iire sometimes the most diflicult for the woman who Id learning to cook. Indeed, many ex- perienced cooks have their greatest troubles with recipes for foods it is generally believed everyone, knows now to make. You undoubtedly have heard many women say they couldn't make good travy. that they always had bad luck frith their coffee, and so on through a long list of things which sound very ilmple. The subject of good coffee is prob- ably the most widely-discussed of the food problems. Your success at home tntertalning may depend to some ex- tent on the kind of coffee you serve. High Price No Guarantee First, the fact that a coffee is ex- pensive doesn't necessarily mean you Vilt have goml coffee if you use it. The price you pay is not all-important. tt is essential that you use fresh cof- fee, however. Know approximately how many cups ft the beverage you are going to need for the meal. Then allow one full cup i)t water to each cup of coffee re- juired. Use cold water. Allow one heaping tablespoon of coffee for each supâ€" one extra tablespoon for the pot. This formula always applies whether jrpu use a percolator or make boiled toffee. Let the wat'M: corn* to a boil. The Dtnute the eottao begins coming up through the top of the percolator, no- tice the time. When the coffee has per- colated six minutes (no more, no less) remove the pot from the fire. Be sure to use a clean percolator. Don't use left-over coCee. It isn't good at all and will ruin the flavor of the freshly-made coffee. Gravy Minus Lumps Gravy is another ogre to many cooks. As a matter of fact, it requires no particular amount of skill â€" only a little patience. Assuming you have the actual gravy stock in a pan, add enough cold water to make the amount of gravy you require. Now put some flour in a bowl and add enough water to make a smooth paste. Beat the mixture with a fork or a spoon until not a lump remains. Stir it into the cold water in the pan. Place the pan over the fire and stir constantly until the gravy becomes thick. It takes about tw^o heaping table- spoons of flour to thicken two cups of gravy sufficiently. Always salt and pepper your gravy before you take It to the table. Milk, instead of cold water, may be used if you prefer. Summer Cosmetics Summer heat has a way of dissolv- ing your cosmetics. The best way to keep your face looking as though it has been freshly made up is to get cosmetics which stay on in spite of the heat. A cream rouge will go on easily and evenly and stay on all day. It will even resist clear water. Soap suds. The Ever-Useful Blouse By HELEN WILLIAMS. oil over hottest fire. Stir constant- 'or a cleansing cream, must be used to take it off. Don't forget the rule for cream rouge. You simply have to use a foun- dation cream on your skin before you put it on. Dry rouge may be applied after you have powdered. When your face has been cleaned, smooth on a tiny little bit of founda- tion cream. Now take a small amount of the foamy cream rouge and make a dot in the centre of each cheek. Blend it upward and outward, with your fore- fingers, according to the shape of your face. When it is all smooth and even pat on your powder with a piece of clean cotton. It is an excellent idea to get your rouge and lipstick at the same time, from the same place. In that way, the beautician can tell just what shades of each you require. Also, you'll be sure that they harmonize. Dull finish powders are highly re- commended for summer. They take away all shiny effects and they do stay on a long time. Holidays No longer do we bother about the clock in the mornings. Our meals are arranged at our own pleasure; ws don't have to be anywhere at any spe- cial time. But you must bear in mind that you can't upset routine without having to pay for it. Theory is all very well, but in practice you will find that, for the first few days, the change is not doing you any good. You feel livery, disinclined to do much, your stomach is a little upset. Instead of that brisk, let's-doa-ten- mile-walk feeling, you feel more like going to sleep. This feeling soon passes as one gets acclimatized, so don't be depressed at the thought that you have come to the wrong place. Household Hints White turnip, well grated and mixed with a little mustard and vinegar, is an excellent substitute for horse-radish. When boiling or roasting chicken rub a little ground ginger over the fowl before cooking. It will make it more tender, and be a great improve- ment. Add a piece of butter to the milk when making blauc-mange. It will turn out of the mould much more easily. Mix a little starch with milk, and add to the blue water v.hen rinsing clothes. It will prevent streakiness. and clothes will dry quicker. When felt hats become soiled do not let them get too dirty, but sprinkle well with household salt. Rub firmly and well into the felt with a clean piece of rough towel; then shako well. You will be pleased with the result. lUuttrated Drestmaking Lesson Fur- nished with Euery Pattern The blouse assumes much import- ance this season while jacket ard cape suits play a leading role.

Sunday School Lesson Women fo Study Trends in Business New York. â€" How business and pro- fessional women in the United States have met the economic slump and what trends and opportunities they see developing through present con- ditions are to be studied intensively by a committtee appointed by the American Woman's Association, ac- cording to announcement made by Miss Anne Morgan, president of the organization h4|^. The studies, which will be financed by grants to the association of $5000 and $2000 from the Carnegie Founda- tion and the Guggenheim Founda- tion, will be made in co-operation with the National Occupational confer- ence, established recently to serve under the Carnegie Foundation as a directing and clearing medium in the field of vocational guidance and per- sonal adjustment to occupational life. A special feature of the injury will be a study of changes in standards of living of the women in business and the professions. The awards by both foundations were made in recognition of the work the association has done during the past three years in giving informa- tion and providing vocational coun- sel to its membership of 4000 women, the announcement said. The re- search will be carried on under the direction oi the general service com- mittee of the association, headed bv Mrs. Mary G. Schonberg. To Auction Jewels of Mrs. E.

Mrs. Wallace's gold cigarette casp with the Initials "V. E. W." in dia- monds, and a long chain from which one of the diamonds Is missing makes up a total of twenty-four item.^ that are to be disposed of. Lesson V. July 30 â€" Gideon â€" Judges, Chapter 6 8. Golden Textâ€" Jehovah it the strength of my life; of whom shall I be afraid. â€" P». 27: L TIME â€" Seven-year oppression by the Midianites ending with Gideon's victory, B.C. 1329â€" "23. PLACE â€" Gideon's home in Ophrah, in Manasseh, west of the Jordan. The battle was fought on the plain of Jezreel, in southern Galilef "And Jehovah said untc Gideon." Either by spoken word or by an im- pression made upon his mind. "The people are yet too many." The words must have sounded in Gideon's soul like the knell of doom. "Bring them down unto the w^ater." The spring of Harod. "And I will try ;.iem for thee there. And it shall be that oi whom I say unto thee, This shall go with thee, the same shall go with thee." Often we select our comrades and life partners on grounds the least suffi- cient and wise, and it is no wonder that our lives are rather weakened than strengthened by such friendships. "And of whomsoever I say unto thee. This shall not go with thee, the same shall not go." The Lord can discern character, spiritual traits anl tenden- cies that are hidden from us lie clearly open before His omniscience. "So he brought down .he people unto the water." He was to make there or.e of the most remarkable tests of history. "And Jehovah said ui to Gid- eon, Every one that lappeth of the water with his tongue, as a dog lap- p_eth, him shalt thou set by himself." Various explanations have been given of the methods of drinking mentioned. The only one that seems to satisfy ti-e text as it stands is that the three hun- dred took water in their hands and licked it up as a dog laps, and that he rest 'oeift down on their hands and drank directly from the stream. "Like- wise every one that boweth down upon his knees to drink.'' The bulk of the soldiers got down on their knees and leisurely slaked their thirst. "And the number of them that lap- ped, putting their hand to their mouth was three hundred men. But all the rest of the ,;eopIe bowed down upon their knees to drink wrvter." Do v.-e belong to "all the rest"? Are we with the big majority who lead iasy lives, never lifti.ig their hands to lift the world's heavy burdens, their souls never heavy with the w^orld's sortt)w? "And Jehovah said unto Gideon. By the three hundred men that lapped will I save you and deliver the Midian- ites into thy hand." The Lord would send no more than three hundred Is- r elites agair^st those hordes of heath- ens. ".-Vnd let all the people go every man unto his place.'' All the others, all but the three hundred, were to go home. The Sword of Jeho ' c^nd of Gid- eon. "And he divided tlie three hun- ^â- â€¢ed men into three companies." Thus the Midianites would feel that they were attacked by a great host. "And he put into the hands of all of them trumpets." The trumpets weie rams' horns, hollow, and making a hideous blast when blown. "And empty pit- chers, with torches within the pitch- ers." Christians may .veil follow Gid- eon's example and go forth into the world with the simple equipment of the Word of God, the sword of the Spirit, which, with >rayer, is mighty to the pulling down of stronsholds. ".â- V.nd he said unto them. Look on me, and do likewise." A true leader of men must be prepared to set him- self up as an example. ".-Vnd, behold, when I come to the outermost part of the camp." Of the Midianites" camp. "It shall be that, as I do, so shall ye dc." When the leader breaks his pit- cher, flourishes his torch, ami blows his trumpet, they are to do the same." "When I blow the trumpe-, I and all that are with me, then blow ye the trumpeU also on every side of the camp, iv.d say. For Jehovaii and for Gideon." .â- V.U generals have knov.n the usefulness of stirring war cries. "So Gideon, and the hu idred men that were with him." Co-oper:Uion the secret of success in any cam- paign against evil. "Came unto the outermost part of the camp in the be- ginning of the middle watch." This was in the dead of night, alxit mid- night. "When they had but newly set the watch." .A.nd when, therefore, there would be some resulti.nt confu- sion, and the soldiers newly in posi- tion nad not .settled dow-.. to keep strict guard. ",\nd they blew the trumpets, and brake in pieces the pit- chers that were in their hands." "The M'dianites were not driven back by angels but by the swords of stout- hearted Israelites. "-â- Vnd the three companies blew the tiumpets," etc. The stratrgem was carried out precisely as had been planned. God does not wa -t the trum- pet testimony and darkness. He wants the testimony acconrpanied by light. Physical Culture Course At Sorbonne Is Praised The keenness with which the French nation has taken up sport ha.s beem reflected at the Sorbonne, Pario University, writes the Paris corres- pondent of "The London Daily Tele- graph." It now has an Institute for Physical Culture that surpasses any- thing of the kind abroad. The institute has been visited by numerous foreign physical culture enthusiasts, who can study there all the newest theories to their hearts' content. The latest distinguished member of the faculty is M. K. H. Van Schagen, municipal inspector of physical education at .Amsterdam, on whom a docorate has been conferred by the Paris University. His th^is was "The role of physical education in the development of the personal- ity." In future one must be careful not to confuse D.Sc. with D.Sp. Moreover, we may find instead of B.A. the let- ters B.P.C. (Bach. Phys. Cult), and if Paris University specializes a little further, such degrees as M.Ftb. (Mas- ter of Football) and F.R.C.H. (Fel- low of the RoyaJ College of Hockey) may be conferred on visitors from EngFand who display special prowess when here. {• IJ3. Women Overworked Here's one for American husband- American women work too hard, fo says the csikszetmartoni Becza, Annie (that's her name and title as she car- ries it, and it means no more or less than that she's a Hungarian Colonel's daughter). Miss Becza, the csiks'ictmartoni, in an interview during her recent visit in Yellowstone National Park, said she found many lovely thingfs in the United States to hold her here, but ;.':e couldn't remain because there's too much labor and not enough Iovh in the life of the aserage American woman, says a bulletin from National Park Service. Husbands who coma home on the wife's bridge night only to find the house either deserted or overrun with bridge addicts might well pause be- fore replying in indignant vein to the Hungarian beauty. Canadian Literature Is Praised By London Times London. â€" High praise for Canadian literary efforts was forthcoming from the Times recently following the gala functions held in honor of the visit- ing members of the Canadian .Auth- ors' Association. They heard speeches of welcome by Rudyard Kipling, G. K. Chester- ton and Sir Henry Newbolt at a great luncheon arranged by the Royal Society of Literature, and by 'St. John Ervina, John Dpia|kwater and Ian Hay at a reception arrang- ed by the Incorporated Society of Authors. .... The luncheon, said the Times, •'makes a happy bit of literary â€" per- haps Imperial â€" history. It is a tri- bute to the power and vigor of a literature when the names of even a few of its authors ara household words in another land. "Literary workers of Canada, with so vigorous a past and so lively a present, have very great things to give English literature in the fu;ure." Killed by Cricket BaU In recording a rare death by cricket some London papers compare the vital statistics of the cricket iieUi with those of football and add that while there is no record of a football ever having itself been responsible for a death it is not so with the ball used in cricket. This ball is only 3 inches in diameter but weighs over •5^ ounces, due to the fact that its interior is a mass of cotton thread tightly wound around a half-inch sphere of hard rubber, the whole cov- ered by two hemispheres of ox hide shrunken on and stitched at the cir- cumference. The accident which a,-oused the comment took place at Potters Bar. Middlesex, when a play- er was struck by the ball, which caus- ed compression of the brain through a ruptureii blood vessel. Seek Oil on Swedish Island Stockholm. â€" New etforts are beim; made to tind oi! on the Island of Gland, long noted for the gas which seeps from its peculiar limestone for- mation. Electrical equipment is being used. Discovery of oil would be un- ique for this kingdom. i? Ducks bred for generations on the dry-land farming areas of Montana have lost the power of swimming. Mid-Atlantic Air Station Passes Test Steamer Westphalen Docki and Launches First Mail Planes on Brazil Route Rio De Janeiro. â€" Experiments wit* the steamship Westphalen as a wa7 station for trans-Atlantic airmail serr- ice have been a complete success, and the first line will get underway In 1934. says Captain Fritz Hammer.

"The ocean air line, alternating with the Graf Zeppelin, will at the start give four-day service from Berlin t« Rio," said Captain Hammer. "Later, as night flying Is Instituted along th« African coast, and faster flying boatj are placed in service, the time will b« reduced, probably getting down U flfty hours before many years." The transocean part of the line will require from twelve to fourteen hours, depending on flying conditions. Plane« from Bathurst will reach the Westpha- len, in midoceau. in six or seven hours, the tests showed. Reaching the Westphalen, the flying boats will be taken aboard by an ingenious drag sail and crane. The landing device, key to the suc- cess of the experiments, worked with- out a hitch in the four ocean flights made as experiments. This device consists of a canvas, 52 bv 26 feet, reinforced by wooden strips] and witll long slats underneath to assure sta^ bility. Upon receiving a plane, the West- phalen heads into the wind, letting out the canvas drag sail behind The flymg boats. aUghting on open sea, time their descent to hit the top of a wave close to the canva.s.

One morning flfty years ago Cap- tain Walter Beasant, the sweetheart of school days, made her his brida, and he left later in the Cay to take his three-masted ship to Batavia. The ship sailed, and was nevei heard of again. 1 John Beasant, the missing man'i brother, said "her love never died She refused offer after offer of mar riage." Words Actually Needed Chicago.â€" Of the â- Â»00,'iOO or mor« words in the English language, only S50 are actually needed in ordinary conversations, according to Misj Mary L. Guyton. supervisor of adult education in Massachusetts. Miss Guyton appeared on an adult education program to explain th« "basic" English works of Professor C. K. Ogden of Cambridge, England, who was unable to be liere becausa of a change of plans. "Professor Ogden says there ara 1.300 languages acting as barriers to word understanding. Since English is used by 500.000.000 people he be- lieves a basic language of English can be used as an intprnationaj auxiliary." . .
