'home”, found her house of memories gone when she returned north this summer. The friendly, white-haired wo-: man with the same sparkling blue eyes that once were the toast of the North, now Mrs. Kate Matson, came back to visit her husband, a mining man. But the theater that had rung with applause for her at the turn of the century had burned, with several other landmarks, this spring. . “It’s going to leave a vacant place in my heart”. she said. “It was a place where I walked with my memories”. The man she was to marry first saw her there on Christmas Eve, 1900, but thirty-one years later he read a newspaper story about her, and wrote her. It was an- other two years still before they were married. Matson remained in the north with his mining properties but Mrs. Matson came out summers to live at Bend, Ore. “Dawson”; Matson Said, “is no’ place’ for a woman”. She was injured in an automobile accident in 1937 and this was her first trip~ north since. “} feel as happy as any sour-! dough should feel about coming she exulted. SPONGE AUTHORITIES FAVOR BEDS’ PATROL | (Continued from Page One) source of reproduction is destroy- ed”, Mr. Thompson declared. “The seeds of reproduction, as I term them, are released by liv- ‘ing sponge in deep water and the currents bring them in to shallow water, where they take root. Now, if those seeds are destroy- ed, the sponge industry will be destroyed also”. Diving of sponge by the meth- ods used by the Greeks is detri- mental to the industry. This opin- ion is expressed in unison by lo- cal fishermen. Control or abolish- ment of these methods has long been advocated in Key West. The fate of the sponging indus- try in this state hangs in the bal- ance. Prompt action by the United States Government may save it. Closing of beds which are near annihilation, strict en- forcement of laws controlling the size of sponges that may be gath- ered and constant inspection are the measures needed now.

SUNDAY DINNER | 7 | GGQeStLC | at exceptionally low prices there isn’t any reason why there should not be a chicken on every dinner table either on Sunday or some other day in the week. Certainly there is no more ver- satile main course than chicken or one that lends itself any more appetizingly to second meal use. Therefore, the wise housekeeper this week will give broil- ing, frying and stewing chickens first consideration in 7 her menus Again this week the supply of fresh fruits a tables seems to be al- most unlit |. Blackberries, raspber- Hien: and. huckieberries are shondent and very riced, so pies, , dumplings and Es of these ber- Fies are all timely dessert suggestions. Watermelon is low in price and full-' flavored and nothing makes a more tempting summer rt than slices of ice cold watermelon. Plums are plenti- ful this week and make delicious des- serts. ‘Vegetable salads with cold meat or eggs will form an excellent summer meal and with vegetables so abundant and. attractively priced a salad can in-| clude four or five different varieties | without extravagance. The supply of corn is much larger this week than last, green, wax, lima and fava beans are all plentiful and in the low priced brackets and tomatoes are low and have the fine flavor characteristic of midsum- a= Carrots and squash are also plen- tifai. __ Beef hinds and fores are even lower in price this week than last and pork remains a particularly good buy. _, This is the season for clambakes so if there is to be a picnic in the woods or by the seashore over the week-end do not overlook the fact that are plentiful and low in price. Miss Cora Anthony of the A&P kit- cheus, suggests the following menus for three Sunday dinners based on the week’s market reports: Low Cost Dinner j Green Peppers Stuffed With Chopped Steak Creamed Carrots Baked Potatoes Bread and Butter Plum Pie Iced Tea or Iced Coffee Moderate Cost Dinner Iced Grapefruit Juice Loin Lamb Chops Potato Souffle String Beans wit!

The mind is patient and prudent, cap- able of strong concentration and application. There is seli-re- Straint, diplomacy and keen ob- servation. It will be well not to incur the resentment of today’s native, who carries the capability of being amalicious, unrelenting enemy able to wait patiently for his revenge. ~~ ‘Sunday= Horoscope _ Today gives a strong character, subtle, given to scientific meth- ‘ods, and capable of carrying out difficult researches to the ultim- ate end. There may develop a vein of cunning and sometimes cupidity, a keen sense of rivalry, and some jealousy. These latter traits should be kept strictly un- der control, if present.
