BRAISEI) LETTUCI

_ __ _ ‘j .-_‘._i ' '-

Here is a satisfactory way to use lettuce leaves which are not young enough to make good salads.

Wash the leavw and tie in small bundles. Blanch these by plung- ing them first into boiling, then into cold water, and dry them thoroughly.

Heat a little dripping in a sauce- pan and saute the lettuce for ten minutes. Pour in sufficient stock barely to cover the leaves, add a small piece of carrot and onion. a little bacon rind, and a bay leaf. Cook slowly for 3-4 hour.

Lift the lettuce on to a hot dish and remove the string. Reduce the liquid by fast boiling with the lid off the pan until it is thick and syrupy. Strain it round the dish. Serve hot.

During the years of the World War "the library" was once more i brought into use. This time by the women of“ the community who went there to do their war work and knitting. Now it is empty and abandoned but it holds the mem- ory of a. gallant attempt tc give pleasure to youth.

In the copy cf “The Bijou which I found in "the library" most of the illustrations are en- gravings from, the paintings of Sir Thomas Lawrence, P.R..A. Mr, Wil- liam Pickering, publisher of “The Bijou", tells us in the preface that the loan of these valuable pictures was a new proof of the kindness which Sir Thomas Lawrence had uniformly shown to this work. This volume, the third, was published in 1830, and Sir Thomas died in the same year. .

Sir Thomas Lawrence was born in I789 and at an age when others were still studying painting he had become a celebrity and had gained the favour of the king and the court of England. At the age of twenty-two he became an associ- ate member of the Academy of painting and the death of Rcy- noldla in i792 left him the sole rep- resentative of the art of portrait- ure in England.»

Lawrence also gained a Europ-‘ can reputation. In 1815 he was sent to the continent, by the Beg- ent, to paint the portraits of all the persons who had most contrib- uted to the downfall of Napoleon. Lawrence remained in France and Italy for five years and on the day of his return to England he was‘ named the President of the Royal Academy.

Compared with the work of Rey- nolds, that of Lawrence is inferior in b0 th line and colour. It shows the inﬂuence of Boucher and his followers andat times appears ai- fected and insipid.

In his work Lawrence truly ex- pressed the delicate beauty and elegance which characterised the period at the end oftheelghteenth century, and some of his paintings are classed as masterpieces of the. English school.

SCHOOL BOARD FACES CRISIS

HALIFAX. Sept 6.-(CP) i-The colossal task of finding room for I a record number of pupils in . buildings already overcrowded . faced education officials with the opening of public schools here this term.

In high schools, particularly, the situation was extreme. At Halifax Academy. built to house about 200 pupils, more than doublt that num- berscught accommodation on the opening day. There were i8 clas- ses and only seven ease-rooms, one chemical laboratory and an assembly hall. A system of "double shifts", with attendance divided between morning and afternoon, was set up temporarily by the newly appointed principal, D .J Matheson. ' ' ~

More than» 100 puoils at that school were forced to sit on window sills and radiators to attend clas- ses the first day. Others had to sit , out in idleness in the assembly hall . to await their turn. '

All the 2‘! other schools were reporting difficulties as more than 13,000 children swelled the aisles of classrooms and created major pro- blems for harassed teachers.
