ENVIABLE RECORD Word has just been received by Warren L. Ashleigh, Y. M. C. A. secretary, that the Anaheim Hi-Y club made a very enviable record last month in competition with all of the Hi-Y clubs in California. Anaheim was awarded third place for putting on the best all-round program and doing the best work for the month. Long Beach took first place with 88 per cent; Hollywood, second, with 83 per cent; and Anaheim third, with 78.5 per cent. The local Hi-Y club has made a name for itself in Anaheim for the work which it has done in not only for the community, church and school, but for the high ideals in Christian character which become a part of its members. The Hi-Y meeting Monday night was held in the Y. M. C. A. An address was given by Dr. McGarrah, of New York, who is here for a few days helping on the financial work for the Presbyterian church, the topic being "Thrift." ANAHEIM WINNER The Anaheim Intermediate school defeated Loara school at soccer last night by the score of 2 to 0. Both teams used several substitutes. LAST NIGHT'S FIGHTS AT INDIANAPOLIS—Roy face, Indianapolis, knocked Tom Billiard, Allentown, Pa., the second round. OAKLAND—Billy Wells, Br vetterweight, defeated Pete L. of Pittsburgh, in ten rounds; son Griffin, San Jose, defended Billy Alger, of Tucson, Arizona; six rounds; Billy Harold, of land, defeated George Lee, ramento, six rounds. MENU HINT Breakfast Grapfruit Hash Rolls Wheat Cereal with Top Milk Coffee Cream Luncheon Potato Salad Meat Sandwiches Cake Apple Cocoa Supper Cabbage Rolls Riced Potatoes Bread Butter Fruit Getatin Coffee TODAY'S RECIPES Potato Salad—Chop coarsely three boiled potatoes, a hard boiled egg, two stalks of celery, one pickle and a slice of Spanish onion. Mix with mayonnaise. Serve on crisp lettuce or shredded cabbage. Cabbage Rolls—Select a loose head of cabbage; 1 pound of pork shoulder, have it ground. Also have on hand rice, onions and a can of tomato soup. Pick off a dozen of the outside leaves of cabbage, place in boiling water till pliable. Mix the meat with 1/2 cup of washed, uncooked rice, season with salt, pepper and a dish of nutmeg. Wrap a good tablespoonful in each cabbage leaf, place in the bottom of a kettle, cover with hot water, lay a large onion on top, cover closely and cook slowly 1 hour. When ready to serve, add the tomato soup and bring to a boil on a slow fire, or heat in the oven. Fruit Gelatine—Drain the juice from one quart can of fruit either banches, pears, pineapple, or cherries are best. Cut 2 cups of marshmallows in quarters, and mix with the fruit. Heat the juice to the boiling point and add enough sugar to make quite sweet. Add the juice of 1 lemon to the pear or pineapple juice and soften 1-2 package of gelatin in a little cold water. Stir into the hot juice and stir until thoroughly dissolved. Pour over the fruit and marshmallow and put in a cool place until ready to serve. Can be served with or without cream. SUGGESTIONS Salad greens should be separated, washed and the leaves examined for dirt and parasites. A compact head of lettuce may be separated without injury by cutting out the core with a sharp knife and holding close up to the faucet, letting the cold water run through it. Wilted salad greens may often be restored to their original freshness by allowing to stand several hours in ice water. Dry thoroughly by patting gentry in a towel before attempting to use. The pressing will not adhere to wet leaves, but will settle to the bottom in a pool. In mixing lard or other shortening with flour for pastry making the looped wire potato masher will blend it in more satisfactorily than the usual knife used to cut it. Housekeepers are always glad for there is not another fruit that has as many uses as the apple on the family menu. From soup to dessert, apples may appear in many excellent dishes. Of course there is a choice in the selection of apples for the different uses. The tart, firm fleshed, but juicy apples, like the full apples, are good cooking apples. They bake well, make good apple sauce, can be fried or used in cooking puddings, and are not bad as an eating apple. The harder winter apples of the greening family make good pie, apple sauce, and are good in other cooked dishes, but are not good as an eating apple. The soft fleshed, rather watery apples are poor cookers and not very good as an eating apple and do not, as a rule, keep well. So the excellence of the cooking apple dishes depends largely on the careful selection of the fruit. It is a grave mistake to count on hanking pictures in ordinary frames on walls covered with paper in old colonial pattern, or it until the first of this week or outing trip.

Atmospheric Prologue Staged by Miss Claire Coutant GEO. E. TURNER Concert Organist Al St. John iff "Lovemania" Kinograms NURMI HASN'T BEGUN TO RACE NEW YORK, Jan. 29. After watching Paavo Nurmi deposit his fifteenth indoor record in the athletic morgue, while winning the Wanamaker mile and a half last night, Joe Loomis, national champion of another day and age, delivered himself of the opinion that the Finn has merely kicked the great American public to date. Loomis thinks that, not unlike John Paul Jones, Admiral Parry or somebody who said he had just begun to fight, Paavo has not even begun to run. The man who has made the records fall right and left in the path of his twinkling toes has only given 80 per cent of his best coming to America, the ex-champion declared. Nurmi, he says, can do a half mile in 1:49, the mile in 4 minutes, two miles in nine minutes and so on at a corresponding speed up to ten miles. “This talk of Nurmi’s wonderful achievements is a joke,” said Loomis, who has seen the great Finn in most of his races here. “Why, that man can take every one of the 15 records he has made on our indoor tracks and break them all over again by as much as five seconds.” The public seems to be dazzled by his performances, but it has missed the vital fact that the man has been under wraps in every race. Loomis added that he didn’t consider Nurmi a limelight seeker and that therefore no one would really see him run until a new and almost equally gifted contender is developed.

Frighten not the little kids, Nor discourage invulga; Dauned he he who gets a kick From scaring children "til they're sick. Those who fast seldom stick to it. When the city hospital facilities move to the country, the country doctors will stop moving to the city. If your room's too dry and you can't regulate the heat with your old, base burner, open the window and the air'll be a little damper. Reducing one's weight too rapidly often causes severe permanent damage. One authority says that five pounds per month is a safe rate. For passing indies we have a failliving law. Chlorine gas we're now inhaling—Just to cure a common cold; Enthusiasts extoll it's virtue; Insisting that it cannot hurt you—But nature sure 'am so of old.

SOCIALIST FLAYS ANTHEM SACRAMENTO, Jan. 29—Characterizing the Star Spangled Banner as "most bombastic and blood-lustful of any national anthem in the civilized world." Panle Bixby Spencer, said to be an associate of Upton Sinclair in the Socialist movement in Son Calif., today requested in a letter to Will C. Wood, state superintendent of public instruction, that steps be taken to discontinue singing of the song in California schools. Wood announced that the letter would be referred to the state board of education for action at its next meeting. "The rockets' red glare, the bombs bursting in the air," are words which have only one significance, namely, the glorification of the killing of man by man," the letter said. "A subsequent line of the same song: Their blood has washed out their foul footsteps' notolution' expresses hatred of the English in terms so malicious as to make one blush with shame for a country that would perpetuate them." No one thing has added more to the nation's health than modern plumbing.
