Alfred Cross aside from his duties as leading man of the company at the Lyceum is attending to the producing of this play personally. Mr. Cross has played in the wonderful dramsa from the pen of Kate Douglas Wiggins and wants to work out his own ideas in the production. With the assist- ance of Maurice Tuttle, the tal- ented scene painter with the company, Mr. Cross has been able to get three settings which he believes will outrank anything seen in this city during the present dramatic scason. Florence Hart who has just finisheq a successful season with one of the best known stock companies in this vicinity comes to the Lyceum Monday night to assist in the production of “Rebecca of Sunnybrook Farm,” and will remain here until the season closes. She will play the wife of the village blacksmith, the talkative, gos- py old lady who stirs up so much strife in the little Maine village of Riverboro, where Rebecca holds forth. Another newcomer to the Lyceum this week will be Frederick Smith who Near the her two up will take the place of Eugene Weber, the second man, who goes to Hart- ford. Miss Dora Booth is also spend- ing ker last week in New Britain. She leaves for New York, tomorrow. Miss Janet Hibbard, the youthful daughter of Mrs. Adelaide Hibbard will make her debut Monday at the Lyceum. HOUSEHOLD NOTES. A sweet red pepper should always hang in the canry's cage.

IRVING WHITE to good cocoa, is highly important school children, many schools hroughout the country are either sup- plying a regular hot luncheon to school children, or are providing a single hot dish with which the chil- dren coming from a distance can sup- plement the cold food in their lunch baskets. In most cases the children bring money with them and buy the dishes at cost price. Those in charge of the lunch room see to it that noth- ing is for sale that would be hurtful to the children, and direct them in their purchases so that they will not buy merely sweets or pastry. This overcomes the danger of the child's spending his money unwisely or pa- tronizing an insanitary shop.

Almost any school by the use of paper cups can make good milk available to children at noon. The school can also place on sale good simple cookies, zwieback, or crackers supplied from the outside. As the serving of an entire lun- cheon calls for considerable equipment and dish washing, many country schools will find it easier to supply simply one hot dish, a cup of cocoa, or a glass of good milk. The milk could easily be provided through ar- ingements with parents or nearby farmers and is particularly useful to children in warm weather when it is impracticable for them to bring bot- tles of milk in their baslkets. crackers, stew, sand- ap- chool can serve hot s, berries and liquid Help Sclves From Counter. In a number of city schools the pu- pils are provided with trays and help themselves to foods placed on a coun- ter. At the end of ihe meal they re- turn the trays and dishes and thus re- duce the amount of help required. In some large cities ined supervisor s employed to regulate all the publi school lunch rooms. In other schools the preparation of lunch is made a practical exercise for c ing and domestic science. It is in the small country schools with only one teacher, however, that the midday presents the most diffi- cult problems. Only a teacher with ingenuity and enthusiasm for her work can carry out the plan, and even with such a teacher the active co-operation of parents is highly im- portant. The simplest equipment includes a large kettle, measuring cup and spoons paring knife, mixing spoon, dish pans, and towels. The pupils should be will- ing to bring plates, cups, bowls, and spoons from home. The boys and girls can easily make curtained shelves for the utensils. A fireless cooker which permits the preparation of meat stews meat and bean soups, and cereal mu can casily be made by the pupils as a class exercise. The older girls, taking turns in groups, commonly prepare the special dish for the day. In good weather the luncheon can be served out of doors, but at other times it may be nec y to serve it on the children’s desks. This will not be objectionable if the desks are first cleancd and covered with clean paper or paper towels, and if the building is well ventilated and screened against flies.
