10 i October 31, 1916. Thinly veiled censure cf Omaha -and its people seems to be the rule with lfecturers from elsewhere who have been imported recently to “up- lift” local wanderers in scarch of truth in art. “Indced, I chould pnsitively be lonesome for some abuse when I go i to- a lecture nowadays, .f it wasnt handed out so easily and quickly I've gotten so I look for it,” laugh- ed one charming matron. Yesterday, at the Jonn A Cowper Powys lecture; it was our packing in- | wch of 55 SuC- dustry, out of which grov our prosperity and the busin, cess of husbands of many women in the audience, which “went against the grain” with the learned Oxford professor. | “He made me feel as if 1 were a carniyorous cannibal becauss I cat meat occasionally,” wailed a sweet young thing. Dr. Powys spoke of his “cultivaced Omaha audience,” and then gave the impression that we had sheep run- ning about wild on the street when he asked “How could we pass shecp ,on the street without blushing for tie manner in which we slaughter them?” But Dr. Powys’' most scathing re- buke came near the close of his lec- ture when he saw several women reach for their hats. “And while you 1are putting on your hats—" the words continued with a few more finishing remarks, “Well, he's a brilliant lecturer any- way,so- he’s entitled to some tem- perament,” seems the consensus of opinion. n P The Misses red Anderson, Nina Lodge, Margaret Mergen and Mary Gibb vge‘rc )aonenel at a Hallowe'en part; turday evening at the home ~of )1 Mildred Anderson.

Copernicus and the Carpathian + Mountains of the Moon at Sunrise. By GARRETT P. SERVISS. As the sun “runs lower” with the approach of winter in our hemisphere, the full moon, as a partial compensa- tion, runs higher. This is one of na- ture’s adjustments which some per- sons regard as having been made ex- pressly frzr)hc benefit of the earth’s inhabitants; The mechanism of the thing is very simple; the moon cannot be fixll, i e, have its whole earthward face illumi- nated, except when it is on the side of the earth opposite to the sun, and N e ™7 i Menu Making. The housewife who is careful both of her time and her money will find both saved to some extent by plan- ning her menus severffldn(ys or/a week in advance.” She will find her- self relieved of the daily problem “What shall I have for dinner?” and she can do her ordering more satis- factorily. At least the dinner menus should be so enced housewife will know quite accu- lanned and the experi- rately what left-overs she can count on from each dinner for the following dllv'l luncheon. For some of use the breakfast menu is practically standardized. The sim- plest possible menutis fruit, toast or some other form of bread and a bev- erage: in some houses a cereal is add- ed, or eggs, or hoth. as indicated the special fuel foods are In a menu such the toast, butter and cereal; the min- eral foods the fruit and eggs and 8 | milk or cream on the cereal; the pro- tein, the milk or cream and eggs. In a household where the men will do hard physical labor during the day and will have a cold lunch, the addi- tion of meat and potato to the menu ives extra protein and extra fuel ood. I have not mentioned the/food value of the beverage, for that is so dcpeu?mt on the kind served. Tea The lngheon-menu in its simplest form consfsts of a Hot dish or heavy salad Bread and butter Beverage To which menu we may add a soup, cold meat, a second hot dish or a dessert, may be added. The hot dish may be eggs creamed or scalloped vegetable, mac- aroni and cheese, or any made dish of left-over meat. Yn tato, egg, fish, cheese or meat or a Ornie or more of these in some form, potatoes, a The salad may be po- light salad with a hot main dish. A cream soup is a good luncheon dish | when only twp or three other foods are served. In any luncheon the main dish may or may not contain much protein, For an ordinary famili; dipner one would choose one of the following groups oil dishes: i 1 Meat and vegotable Soup . Bread and butter . Moeat and 1 or 2 Deasert vegetables Bread and butter Deasert Beverago uL Soup Mert and 1 or 2 vegetables A relish (jelly, pickle or olive) Bread and butter SBalad Dessert Beverage In groups I ang II a salad may well take the place of the dessert, espe- cially a fruit salad. In some houses the family is satisfied with either soup or salad, though they ave not substitutes for each other, except that each adds an extra dish to the menu.

The practice of beginning a dinner with soup is a good one, for though we know a clear soup has lit- tle food value, it may stimulate appe- tite, and does start the flow of the digestive juices. When serving tw; vegetables it is well to choose one which is starchy, as potatoes or sweet potatoes, and a green vegetable, such as peas or cabbage, The salad should be of plain lettuce or of fruit or of vegetables. For ordianry occasidns rich puddings should be avoided un- less the main course is light, or small portions only should be served. There is a real art in putting to- gether feods which give a good blend of flavors as well as a sensible com- bination of foodstuffs. . It is permis- sibles from a dietary standpoint to serve.cream of tomato soup and toma- to salad at luncheon, but it is njonato- nous. We do not want potatoes and rice at the same time, partly because both have similar flavor and texture, Certain food combinations are so fa- miliar to us that they are a habit. Many of them are both nutritious and artistic combinations, such as _ Fish and cucumbers or tomatoes Duck and mpple sauce Turkey and cranberry sauce Lamb and peas AXpATAgus on toast Corenl, cream and sugar A satisfactory menu is one that con- tains an artistic and nutritious com- bination of a few well-cooked dishes prepared without an undue amount of exertion on the part of the housewife.

A Photograph of a Portion' of the Moon. from this it follows that when the sun is far below the equator the full moon must be far above it. Thus, to a certain extent, our short and relatively dim winter days are made up for by long and compara- tively bright winter nights. The man- tle of snow covering th€ ground in high northern latitudes reflects the winter splendor of the moon, so that even meteorology aids the compensa- tion. Except for the chill of the air there is no season so favorable as winter for the study of the wonders of the moon. Next to a knowledge of the gtars I would put a knowledge of the “geography” of the moon. There is a little world, more than 2,000 miles in diameter, plaged right at our door, and showing ‘even to the naked eye the principal features of its topogra- phy as clearly as we can see the geo- graphical markings on a school globe. You put such a globe one foot in diameter at a distance from the eye of about 114 feet and it will look just as large as the full moon.. You will see its pictured continents and oceans very much as you see the dark plains and bright mountainous regions on the moon, except that they will not appear so distinct unless they are very strongly printed. Maps-and photographs of the moon can now be obtained on which the entire visible surface of the lunar world is represented with an accuracy which, in some respects, is still un- attainable in maps of the earth. We cannot look at the earth all at one ‘| view as we can at the moon, so that we have no means of directly compar- ing our earth maps with the actual object represented, as we have in the case of the moon, We can make a direct portrait of the moon, A painter who dwelt on the face of his sitter like a microscopic insect, able to see only minute portions of ‘it at a time, and forced to connect the various parts by measurements of dis- tances and angles before he could combine them into an idealized whole, would be in the situation of the map- maker, or globe-maker, who under- takes to make a representation or a P | model of the earth on which he lives. To see the round.moon in the sky is to have a visual, though inferential, proof of the rotundity of the earth. ere before you is an actual world, “hung upon tdesco}wr and look down upon the tops of its lofty peaks, or see their black shadows projected across the neighboring plains. 1 do not know of an%' spectacle so thrilling as that. ‘he principal features of the moon are easily seen without a telescope.

That spot is the huge crater ring called “Tycho.” All| around it the face of the moon is bright, because it is broken by rugged mountains and craters which scatter the sunbeams in all directions. On the left-hand side of the moon you will notice a great, irregular, dark expanse, with bright points in it. This |+ is_called the “Oceanus Procellarum” (Ocean of Tempests). The dark rounded patch at its southeast end is the “Mare Humorum” (Sea of Hu- mors). Above and to the right of that is the “Mare Nubium” (Sea of Clouds). In the upper part of the eastern half of the moon is a large shadowy expanse, the “Mare Imbri- um” (Sea.of Rains). i To the right of that, separated by a crinkling bright line (the “Appenine mountains”) is the oval “Mare Seren- itatis” (Sea of Serenity). Southwest of this appears the “Mare Tranquil- litatis”' (Sea of Tranquillity), below which, hang the irregular “Mare Fe- cunditatis” and “Mare Nectaris.” A distinct dark oval is made by the “Mare Vaporum” (Sea of Vapors). And between the Mare Nubium and | the Mare Imbrium is the immense crater ring “Copernicus.” The dark patch almost in the center of the moon, east of the lower part of | the Appenine mountains, is the “Mare | Vaporum” (Sea of Vapars).
