Practical Agreement on Athletic Car
nival in Connection With the 1915
Fair in San Francisco.
While members of the Olympic con-
gress have been debating on the
standardized program for future in
ternational meetings the powers that
be on the Pacific coast have practically
agreed on the athletic carnival of
sports scheduled in connection with
the 1915 fair in San Francisco. John-
ny McGovern, secretary of the Ath-
letic department, states that the open
Ing of the exposition on February 20
will mark the beginning of the great
est year that sport has ever known.
"Almost every day from the time
the gates open officially until its close,
December 4," McGovern goes on to
say, "the fair will bristle with athletic
activity. Nowhere in the world has
euch a stupendous program ever been
outlined."
According to McGovern, every form
of sport, from the most ancient to the
most modern, will be indulged In. All
of the national championships of the
A. A. U. are open to amateur athletes
of the world. These blue-ribbon events
follow: February 22, basketball;
March 26 to 27, gymnastic; April 16
and 17, wrestling; July 19 to 24, swim-
ming; July 19 to 24, water polo (soc
cer); August 5. all-around; August 6,
Junior, aud a day later, senior track
and field; August 9 to 10. relay racing;
August 12, ten-mile run, seven-mile
walk and international tug of war
(Olympic rules).
In addition to the champ® the fol-
lowing international events have been
decided upon: April 26 to 30, fencing;
May 5 to 8, boxing; August 2 to 4, cy-
cling; August 5 to 6, dumb-bell and
weight lifting; August 13 to 14, Inter-
collegiate championships; September

Peanuts are the cheapest and most
commonly used of all nuts, yet be-
^ cause perhaps of their
cheapness they are un-
dervalued. The following
are some ways of serv-
I l°K them: Peanut but-
I ter can be made at home.
Fresh shelled roasted
fyVc ,3 nuts put through a grlnd-
[ft ] er and mixed with but-
ter and salt to suL the
taste. If the butter Is
fresh and the peanut mixture Is put
In Jars It will keep some time and be
good.
Sweet Peanut Sandwiches.—Take
half a cupful of grated maple mgar
or brown sugar, one-fourth of a cup-
ful of chopped peanuts and a table-
spoonful of rich milk. Mix well and
spread on buttered graham bread or
crackers.
Peanut brittle Is a favorite candy
with the children. Melt two cupfuls
of sugar in a frying pan, stir until
brown, then pour over a pau of
shelled peanuts.
Nut Pudding—Mix a cupful of
chopped nuts with two cupfuls of
bread crumbs, add two eggs mixed
with a pint of milk. Season with
salt and pepper and bake until firm
and brown. Serve as a vegetable.
Scalloped Tomatoes With Nuts.—
Mix half a cupful of finely-chopped
nuts with two cupfuls of bread crumbs
and two tablespoonfuls of melted but-
ter. Put a layer In the bottom of
the making dish, then add a cupful of
tomatoes, another layer of crumbs, an-
other cup of tomatoes and over the
top the rest of the nut and crumb
mixture. Bake In a quick oven until
brown, and serve hot.
Potatoes With Nuts.—Mix together
one cupful of chopped nuts and two
cupfuls of bread crumbs, and put in
a greased pan. Alternate layers of
cold sliced potatoes and this mixture,
finishing with the crumb mixture, pour
over a cupful and a half of milk, well
seasoned with salt and pepper. Bake
slowly one hour.
Peanut soup, peanut bread and pea-
nut cookies are more of the tasty
dishes which one may prepare. Pea-
nuts served with lettuce with French
dressing and a bit of chopped onion
makes a most satisfying salad
SHED THE BEST WASHROOM
ts Advantages Are Many, Whers Such
an Apartment Is at the Command
of Housewife.
In case a woodshed Is available,
vtth an old stove that can be used
:here, these should be pressed Into
tervice for washing during the winter
nonths. The woodshed as a wash-
•oom would necessitate a washday
which is mild and sunshiny, but there
s usually more than one such day in
;ach week; and when the health of
-.he family Is at stake, the washing
:an well be done on some other day
.han Monday. At best, the woodshed
would be cold, hence the worker would
leed a piece of old carpet or linoleum
ind warm bricks or a soapstone to
protect her feet while standing at the
tubs.
A small bench on rollers, made the
same height as the wash bench, will
enable the housewife to move the filled
tubs about without any lifting. Such
preparations on the day previous are
accessary In order to shorten the proc-
esses on washday and hasten the dry-
ing of clothes, for the earlier in the
day that some of the clothes can be
put on the line, the less need there will
be for the remainder to lie wet in the
house or to be dried there.
In case a shed Is too cold for use In
all processes of washing, It should be
used for those which send off much
Bteam, such as running clothes through
the washing machine. Wringer, wash
bench, boiler, basket and hamper
should be kept In this shed rather
than carried from the cellar and back,
or rather than keep doors open while
carrying them from the smokehouse
to washroom, as Is sometimes done.

Golf Course In Cemetery.
Unique golf Items come from foreign
lands from time to time, one of the
latest being an account of a Chinese
course which has been laid out In a
large cemetery- The rather gruesome
links are located near Tien-Tsm, and
as the Chinese bury the dead Just be-
low the surface of the ground and
then mound up the earth to a consid-
erable height, the course has been apt-
ly termed one of "A Thousand Bunk-

TO RESTORE FOOTBALL GAME
Agitation at Columbia for Renewal of
Gridiron Contests—Open Style
Removes Danger.
An agitation has started for a re-
newal of football activities at Colum-
bia college. Those who favor the re-
introduction of football at the college
point out that the main objection that
the Columbia faculty had concerning
the game now is removed. The Colum-
bia authorities barred the game eight
or nine years ago because of the many
deaths and serious Injuries that oc-
curred on the football field Caring the
period.
The new style game, It la pointed
out now to the faculty, has removed
much of the danger In football.
Columbia has a student enrollment
of about six thousand and from among
this collection or youths It could mo-
bilise enough footballers to give the
best teams In the country a real bat-
tle for annual honors.

There 1s any number of dainty
dishes which will add much to the
Christmas dinner when
nicely prepared.
Gibiet Sauce.—Cook the
giblets until tender, and
when cool chop them.
Add a cupful of the
liquor In which they'
were cooked, a teaspoon-
ful of kitchen bouquet,
salt and pepper. Add the gravy from
the turkey and thicken with flour.
Cook until smooth and Berve un-
strained.
Sweet Potato Croquettes.—Peel and
boll in salted water until tender seven
large sweet potatoes and mash while
warm, season with cream, add a beat-
en egg and whip until light, and when
cold mold Into small croquettes and
fry In deep fat. Garnish with parsley.
Escalloped Turnips.—Take five oi
six white turnips, according to the
number to be served. Parboil the
turnips until tender, drain, cut In
cubes and put in a buttered baking
dish in which a layer of buttered
crumbs has been placed. Cover with
M white sauce, and sprinkle with
bread crumbs and grated cheese, then
brown in the oven.
Chestnut Dressing.—Boll a quart of
shelled chestnuts in salted water un-
,tll tender, while warm mash to a
paste, adding a teaspoonful of salt,
H dash of paprika and half the qan-
tlty of bread crumbs, two tablespoon-
fuls of melted butter and a teaspoon-
ful of poultry dressing. Blend the
ingredients thoroughly and If a moist
dressing is desired add a cupful of
boiling milk.
Custard and Spinach.—Boll a quart
of spinach In halted water until ten-
der and press dry. setting aside until
cold. Beat two eggs, add a ' ^aspoon-
ful of salt, and gradu.^Ily a pint of
hot milk, stirring well. Add the flne-
■ly-caopped spinach, and cook in hot
.water until firm. Cut in cubes when
cold and serve as a garnish with clear
When much machine work haa
be done, filling the ahuttle la a con-
stant annoyance. This can be part-
ly obviated by threading the shuttle
with finer cotton than that used on
the needle. The sewing will be quite
as strong, and the shuttle will not
need refilling half so often as it
would If threaded with the same num-
ber of cotton as the needle, because
the spool will hold a great deal more
of the finer cotton.
If you want your sewing machine
to do satisfactory work, remember
that it needs to be kept clean. After
every ten hours' work It needs oil,
but all surplus oil must be carefully
wiped off afterwards. Always work
It steadily, and never start or stop
with a Jerk.
One dressmaker, whose machines
are noted amongst her sewing girls
for their smooth and essy running,
oils them once in every three times
with paraffin Instead of the usual oil.
Of course she Is careful that the ma-
chines are kept scrupulously clean. A
dirty machine can't be expected to do
good work.
When your machine Is not In use,
see that the wheels are left so that
the oil holes are at the top of the
hub. This will save clearing away
the superfluous oil, which trickles out
and causes the hub to catch the dust
Before you begin to sew take an
odd piece of material and stitch back-
wards and forwards before commenc-
ing ordinary work. If any oil works
up with the needle, as so frequently
happens after oiling or cleaning, it
will not spoil your material.
Treat a machine as a delicate in-
strument, and keep It away from
draughts and damp.
