TO MEASURE SHORTENIN G

A correct and easy way to measure shortening is by the water displacement method. In

measuring one-half cup of shorten- ing, measure one-half cup of cold water in a measuring cup. Place the cup on the table; then press into it enough shortening so the 1min will rise in one cup. Drain off the water, slip a blunt knife around the shortening. It will drop out, leaving the cup clean and the shortening accurately measured. I

Lilo Linke writes with vigour. directness and frankness, first showing herself as most disagree- able but often pitiful small girl with a decided piopensity for lead- ership. As a gm m girl we soon come to respect and admire her for her foresight and freshness.

At the age of si teen she first became associated with one of the numerous German youth groups, but in a very short time she out- grew it and involved herself in politics, soon as a leadertwith the Young Democrats. She tells of hel- feelings as-she followed the flag of the Republic for the first time. "I wanted to fight for it although I knew that this meant a challenge w my parents and my whole fam- ily who all lived with their eyes turned toward the past." Born about 1907, Lilo Linke and her generation had scarcely known the old mi. perinl Germany, they were gtflvlng for “the state of tomorrow with work and freedom and happiness for all."

But the attempt to create a dem. ocratic Germany ended in failure with the ascendancy of Hitler as Chancellor 01' Germany in 198s.

The Berlin of the Republic was an ideal place to Lilo Llnke who always seized every chance to ex- Dfirlence something new. But the Nazi Berlin made her feel an out- "vflst; the old longing to move for. ward into e unknown misused her so shqwent-foflincland to live.

" rable increase in interest in the country itself. Czechoslovakia, it seeml. is not an entirely new state that came into existence only after the World War. As a nation it had adopted ChIi-Btlflflity as early as the ‘It-b century, but its long record of in- dependent existence was tempor- arily suspended in the 17th century by its forcible incorporation info the Ilapsburg realm. The culmina- tion of its struggle to regain inde- pendelioe came with the war, the outcome of which was the estab- lishment of the Czechoslovakian Republic. - ecause of its old historical traditions and deep roots when Czechoslovakia became once mom a free country it was at once mark- ed with a set o1 characteristics un- mistalmbly its own and was re- markably clear of uncertainty and experiment so necessary to a new state. ‘ . Of its, progress in art we am privileged to have a glimpse of one phase, in the present exhibition.

they become, and that no adore them. -

This artless belief that the heart is a rpetual-motion machine that once set going can't be stopped flnds its ullest illustration ln marriage and explains why husbands and wives take so little trouble to make them- selves attractive to each other. Tiiey don't try to hold the love they have won because they think they can't lose it, a mistaken idea which is sufficiently disproved by the number of divorces.

Indeed, it is s matter of common knoweldge that the reason for pric- ticaliy every divorce is that assigned by the colored lady for leaving her husband, that she “just done lost her taste for Bo say we all. The fires of passion burndown into ashes. The living picture that we tliousht we could gaze upon forever with rapture tums into a chronic that gels upon our nerves. The little tricks and mannerisms that. we found so ravishing grow silly and tiresome. The conversation we found so en- trancing bores us to tears. And why, we do. not know. We have just lost our taste for the once beloved one.

Yet, in spite of all evidence to the contrary, people go on believing that love is change-p of and fool-proof. Look at the women who don't uhink it is worth while to dress up for a mere husband and who slop around homo in soiled kimonoc and with cold cream on their faces and their hair in curlers! Not much like ladyloves, huh? Nor does any man sitting around in his stocking feet, minus a collar and needing a, shave, iilspue romantic ideas in his wife's breast. And listen in on tne average married couple. Irritable and fault-finding with each other. Nagging ouch other. Quarreling over trifles. Rowing over bills. Saying bitter" mean things to each other that they would not say to any other human being. Ami yet expecting love to survive such manha-ndiing. Each com- plaining of the others indifference. Each outraged when the other trans- fers his or her affections to another.

Maybe it isn't love. from the poets’ standpoint, that can't survive dis- illusion and ill-treatment and the decadence of an ideal, but it is the only kind of love of which the common or garden variety of man and woman is capable. They can't go on kissing the unkissabc and being romantic about the commonplace. They know we can fall out of love as easily as we can fall in love, and that if we retain the affection of any one we have towork to keep it. .

The-only love in the world that is proof against all change, that will survive neglect luld abuse and ingratitude ls mother love. That "docs not altar when it alteration finds." and it takes the bedraggled woman of the street and the blear-eyed dfunkard to its breast with the same devotion it gave them when they were innocent babes. .
