YTy it the next time yon run short of bread. Save this recipe. 20 — R ——= K C Baking Powder Biscults Three cups flour; ¥ o % cup short- ening; 3 level teaspoonfuls K C Baking Powder; about 1 cup milk or waler; 1 teaspoonful sall. Sift three times, the flour, salt and baking powder. Work into the flour the shortening, using lard or butter for shortening. Then mix to a very soft dough with the milk. The softer the biscuit enters the oven, the lighter it comesout. Never knead baking powder biscuits; press the dough into shape and roll lightly, Cut in small shapes and bake on a sheet or very shallow pan in a hot oven, In placing biscuits in the pans place well apart, not allowing edges to touch. Small biscaits are better than large ones, Large biscuits do not have the proper amount of time to raise and bake.

Men are recognizing ob- ligations and are responding to the call for comradeship. We need team- play between sections of our state. No part can afford to let another feel that it is unjustly treated. We need team-play among our institutions. None should seek its own prosperity irrespective of the needs of the rest. We need team-play in business, in professions, in religion, in social rela- tions, generally, Associations like this can contribute in important ways to the growth of this spirit. Business men are often a little shame-faced in confessing to what seems almost a weakness. They stoutly declare that they are pushing this social enter- prise or that solely for selfish reasons or commercial profit. Deep down in their hearts they feel the stir of a nobler sentiment; they are respond- ing to the call for team-play. “Beneath all the materialism, greed and selfishness of life runs a strong current of thought and feeling which especially in this region where men meet on terms of personal democracy and mutual esteem, is sweeping them into comradeship for large social ends. Our times are responding in countless ways to the call for team- play.” Secure a set of six Rogers AA tea spoons free with the Pionecr. Ask how. Come packed in neat lined boxes. The Cass Lake Times: Miss Bell, a neice of Mr. Fulton, was a guest at the Fulton home two days last week. Saturday at one o’clock, a six course dinner was given in her honor. Covers were laid for ten; and the menu was an elaborate Thanksgiving affair. Carnations and ferns made a beautiful center-piece. Everything from oysters to coffee was of the choicest, and those who were so for- tunate to be present have placed Mrs. Fulton’s name on the top list of entertainers. After dinner Mr. and Mrs. Fulton gave Miss Bell, Mrs. Funck and Miss Zimmerman an auto trip to Bemidji.

The eaves die, and hence fall; that is all ere is about it. But the scientist ows that the proceeding is a high- }y complex one. In the first place, preparations for the leaf-fall begin the minute the leat is formed, and in any cases the leaf falls while yet resh and green. In 1768 a botanist named Duhamel advanced the theory that the change was caused by the Fupture of a thin texture between the leaf and the stem. In the middle of the nineteenth century there was dis- covered, traversing the leaf-stalk and touching the stem, a layer of cork tissue analogous to that of bark on the tree. It was recognized at once as interfering with the continuity be- tween stem and leaf. The formation of this layer, however, is not general, and is not observed in certain ferns. in the beech tree, the poplar and many others. Nevertheless, this dis covery furnished the key to the phenomenon. The leat-stalk is form- pd of strata of cellular tissue. One pf these strata hardens and tends to beilng absorbed, and consequently on one side or on both, the other strata gradually grow together. The leaf then adheres to the- stem only by fibrous, woody tissue—that is to say, by a tissue to all intents and purposes dead. This is broken mechanically on the impulse of the wind or under the pressure of the weight of the stem, and makes the leaf fall. These or- gans have not in them the strength to sustain the cold during the winter, pnd the tree dispenses with them.— Harper's Weekly. Anclents Knew of Elevators.
