The report shows the vast amount of work done for public health, thru lectures, in conferences and of the unusually interesting display made at the State Fair.

the boiling point and to add the meal slowly, stirring constantly. The objection to this method is that there is considerable danger that the mush will become lumpy and oftentimes it is inconvenient to stand over a hot stove and stir the mixture sufficiently to make it smooth. A better method and one recommended by the United States Department of Agriculture is the following:

Put the corn meal, cold water, and salt together in the top of a double boiler. No stirring is necessary. Put the top of the double boiler into the lower part and allow the mush to heat slowly, cooking half an hour, or longer, if convenient. Many people cook it as long as four hours. Just before serving remove the top of the double boiler from the lower part and boil mush for two or three minutes. In boiling it at this time there is no danger that it will lump.

TO MAKE MUSHTHAT DOES NOT LUMP

Recipes for the use of corn meal that will be useful everywhere are not easy to make, for the meal used in various parts of the country differs considerably. In general the granular, which is used more commonly in the North, requires more water and longer cooking than the water-ground, which is used more generally in the South. This extra cooking is needed to soften the meal and remove the granular quality from which it gets its name, and must often be given to the meal before it is used in making bread, or such dishes as waffies or doughnuts.

Home Service BureauWhat the bureau of home service

and civilian relief, of which Miss Miss Madeline Draper is the director has done, was reported by Miss Sibyl M. Gordon, secretary of the bureau. The report in brief follows:

“Since the opening of the home service bureau in 1917, 3,110 service men and their families have come to us for aid.

“There were 1,354 cases under our care the past year. Care of 450 disabled soldiers. Of this number, all but 94 have had their claims for compensation adjusted. Over 300 were examined and their claims, including affidavits mcessary, filed through the home service office.

“With the exception of the county work we are planning to wind up the activities of this bureau on January 1. We believe that after that date the service rendered to the families could be handled by the Associated Charities, the information concerning allotments, insurance, etc., can be properly cared for by the American Legion. As to the disabled soldiers, our

; biggest problem, we hope by January 1 to clear up all claims that have been entered to date and to urge men who have not yet filed claims to do so at once, as after January 1, we will only have one stenographer on duty to refer cases to the proper agencies, and handle any left-over claims of the disabled men.

Taylor, the American efficiency engineer, advocated the cooperative use of the two hands in a single task along strict efficiency lines, in that both hands could be busy at the same moment, and this appears to be the gist of ambidexterity in practice.—Medical Record.
