/OMEN DRAW FORTH IRE OF MRS. RORER Engage in Spirited Arguments Over | Potato Souffle Versus Souffle Potatoes MASHED POTATOES PLEBIAN | Mutiny, rebellion, insurrection—no not down in in Omaha among the women folks in terested in Mrs. Sarah Tyson Rorer's cookery lectures, Mrs. Paul merly fessional from the state Mexico, but right here Rivett of Lincoln, for- Miss Frances Wyman, a pro university who was engaged as assistant to Mrs. Rorer, threatened to resign Monday night after only one after- noon’s work with Mrs. Rorer, and retains her position only on the urg ' ‘ ent solicitation of the women of the St. Mary's avenue Congregational church, who are sponsoring the lec tures, because of the difficulty that would be encountered to repface her The women of the committee and | Mrs. Rorer are seemingly “on the outs"—Mrs, Rorer refused to see any of them yesterday and outbursts | of dissension and disapproval with | Mrs. Rorer’s remarks are heard on all sides throughout the audiences The trouble started Monday morn- ing, it is said, when Mrs, Rorer came down to inspect the scene and ar- rangements for the lecture. Sev- eral things did not meet with her ap- proval and she voiced it to the com- mittee in charge, “But we thought she was tired from traveling and would get over it,” said Mrs, J. H Osborne The afternoon lecture was replete with stinging allusions to the ignor- ance of housewives in general and seemingly Omaha housewives in par- ticular, which aroused the ire al number of women present. “Alrs Rorer also frequently mentioned the fact that the program of lectures for | the week was not of her choice, “If I| had been following my own pro- ) ( gram,” she interpolated several times. | Mrs. Osborne of the committee states that Mrs. Rorer herself outlined her course of lectures. Mrs. Rorer commented several times on the fact that local women wanted her to tell about entertain- ing for company, whereas she herself maintains there should be no special preparation or fuss made for guests Quotes Fontenelle Chef, “Some of the ladies have told me what beautiful entertaining is done here. From what 1 gather, their en tertainings are feedings,” remarked | Mrs. Rorer with a shrug of disgust Mrs. Rorer also quoted the chef of the Fontenelle as authority for the (statement that Omaha people know nothing of how food nmuf«j be pre- pared. “He told me that Omaha people never send anything back, because they don’t know whether the food is prepared as it should be or not,” said Mrs. Rorer, A number of women expressed their displeasure at Mrs. Rorer's fre quent assertions of the superiority of European cookery and the prevailing’| ignorance.on the part of American housewives “l venture to say there is a great deal Mrs. Rorer could learn, too, from the housewives of the middle west. I'm certainly glad there are some people left to whom food is not everything in the world,” exclaimed Mrs. Warren Blackwell, At yesterday morning's class Mrs Rorer, Mrs. Fred Loomis and another woman in the audience engaged in a spirited argument of potato souffle versus souffle potatoes, Mrs. Rorer ‘extolled the merits of souffle potatoes and said that no rec ipe for its concoction could be had in the United States. A woman in the audience declared she had received it from the State university, whereupon Mrs. Rorer challenged her statement and pronounced her recipe that for pogato souffle. “All the difference in Yhe world,” exclaimed Mrs. Rorer Mrs. Fred Loomis had also tasted souffle potatoes at Antoine's in New Orleans, where Mrs. Rorer, too, had eaten them and had been told by him that ed spuds were necessary for this Women Know So Little. “Not at all, not, at all! He was only telling you that for effect,” re plied Mrs. Rorer. But although Mrs Rorer would not divulge the recipe ( impor delicacy Mrs. Loomis gave it willingly to a number who asked for it “Ladies interest me so much, They know so little,” was one of the bombs Mrs rer sent into her exclusively | W audience. “Me | ore interested scientific ¢ keeping than wor | Mashed potatoes dish, | according to Mrs. Rorer i wise plebeian to use table clot breakfast—you should use s p so much silver on the ta Nevertheless, Mrs. F ak ing to a crowded house ea 8 and afternoon ADMINISTRTRIX SUES { FOR FUNDS OF ESTATE Applying this Paste Actually Removes Hairs | RETURNS IN JUNE TO GET HIS HARVARD DIPLOMA, Milton Peterson, Milton Petersen, son of Mr, and Mrs. P, P, Petersen, has returned to Omaha for a month's rest from his studies at Harvard, after spendin three weeks in an eastern hmnnzf Young Petersen hegan his collegiate career at Harvard in the fall of 1912 after graduating from the Omaha | Central High school and finished the four-year undergraduate course in three years; but decided to wait a year for his diploma in order to grad uate with his classmates, in the mean time continuing his work in the Har vard graduate school of law In the latter part of April, Peter |sen’s health broke down and after a three weeks' sta 1 a hospital he was ordered home for a month's rest His father journeyed east and after a two weeks' stay returned with him Mr. and Mrs. Petersen and t} daughter, Miss Luella, will journey east in June to enjoy the exercises when Young Petersen will receive his diploma.

They could not make up their minds," That's the way lots of folks are born—to hesitate—and lose out. They buy land, they build, they buy stocks, after all these things have gone up. They always pay dear because they can't decide. Here is a striking instance: When the new Eleventh Edition of the Encyclopaedia Britannica was offered the public on India paper, in light thin voluines, it was frankly an experiment. It was new. No great encyclopaedia had ever been published in such form. So, to acquaint the public with its beauty and its advantages, the publishers offered it at an especially low price, to early buyers. This price had soon to be raised, and the fact was"widely advertised. But many still hesitated, —With this result: that nearly two-thirds of the purchasers of the Cambridge University issue have paid an average of over $30 per set more than if they had seized the first chance. —With a total loss of over one million dollars. to the publishers. .‘It was just lost, swallowed up. Identically'the’same thing is happening now! We believed there was a huge public which wanted the Encyclopaedia Britannica but could not afford to pay $166 or more per set for the Cambridge University issue. So we arranged with the publishers for a new issue of the same work, unabridged, in a smaller form. We contracted with them for an enormous primmfi, and so were able to offer the public a wonderful bargain—the new Eleventh Edition, unchanged by a line, at one-third the price of the larger-sized work—the whole 29 volumes, the complete work, sent upon the payment of a single dollar ; and small monthly payments after you have the books to use and enjoy. Price to be increased 311 to $19 When we made this contract we had no thought of wars and soaring prices. And we hoped to go on selling this wonderful work for years at these low prices. Now the publishers notify us that they can supply us with no more sets at anything like present costs. The sets we contracted for are nearly all gone and it will be necessary for us to increase the price by $11 per set on the cheapest binding to $19 on the highest priced binding. And it is not at all certain that we shall be able to secure any considerable number of sets even at these prices. Now! Itisuptoyou. We give you this notice. Which will you do? Are you going to be one of the people who hesitate, who put off? Do you b~long to the people who can't decide ~the people who always pay dear because they can't make up their minds? Are you going to wait—and pay more ? We have received to date more than 150,000 letters and inquiries regarding our offer of the new “Handy Volume" Issue, Of these it is probable that at least 25,000 people will eventually purchase it—at a higher price. That means that they, too, are going to throw away from a half million to a million dollars—just by waiting. This money will it will not go to the publishers—it will just be wasted Yet this was no added profit not come to us Are you this kind ? | | Every day you let pass without the new Encyclopaedia Britanniea in your home, or at your office, may mean & real loss. In its 40,000 carefully written, practical and authoritative articles, you might find one vew fact which might be worth to you hundreds or even thousands of dollars, Many people have. And you will never be able to buy it so cheaply as now Motor ears and such things may go down in price, because a wild eraze for them is on and the companies are now makiog huge profits. But the new Encyclopaedia Britannica is sold on the narrowest margin of profit, both to us and to the publishers, because we wanted this year to offer to our publie the greatest hargain we had ever put before them Paper, leather, and all the costs in manufacture have so advanced that it is impossible We cannot continue this sale at these prices You need this great work. Your family —your children - need it and women would prize more than the new Encyclopaedia Britannica There are lew gifts which wide-awake men In buying it you are shaolutely sure it is the best that money ean buy.

It is very much like trying to describe the earth in a page or two. But the publishers of The Encyclopaedia Britannica have prepared a very remarkable book of 130 pages, which does attempt to give you some idea of the wonderful variety and real human interest of these volumes. It is illustrated with nearly 200 pictures directly from the Britannica itself, and gives you a hundred interesting bits of information, revealing The Encyclopaedia Britannica from a hundred different points of view. It gives you portraits of 70 or more of the celebrated scholars and men of science, travelers and explorers, who have made the new Britannica ; and it tells you, too, of the long array of great men like Sir Walter Scott, DeQuincey, Macaulay and Huxley, and scores of others who have contributed to the Britannica in past days. Tt tells the story of the beginnings of this famous work, back in the days of King George I1I, and how it quickly.took rank as the greatest of all encyclopaedias. For Bright Boys and Girls To prove that there is just as much in The Encyclopaedia Britannica for bright boys and girls as for grown people, the publishers of the Britannica have prepared a delightful little book full of pictures and interesting scraps of information, discovered by inquisitive boys and girls who know their way round in the Britannica. This handsomely illustrated book is worth owning and is yours for the asking. Someof the chapters are: “A Game Worth While,” “Who's Who at the Zoo," “A Trip to the Art Museum with the Britannica Club,’* *The Nature Club Holds a Field Day,” “How the Britannica Helped a Boy Find His Life Work," Only a limited number printed.
