The Milton team Is a well known' quantity last year the team was a remarkable one and Is said to be fully aa good or better 'this year. Superior weight and older heads won for the Y. M. C. A. last night over the high school by a substantial mar gin and boomed stock, in the Y. M. C. A. team materially Contending with Slippery, always-active players of the school on the hill the "Y" players had their hands full always and despite a big difference in physical makeup the youngsters were able to take' the In itiative with good effect at times especially In the beginning did the lads - get their , plays away with smoothness and threw baskets accur ately. However, after tlie third play had been reeled off with lightning precision, the Y players broke up the team work effectively and with the long hard r tsges that characteihe the stronger arm and cooler lieji, sent the five through successive team plays that netted many a goal but should have netted more. It Is but the first appearance of the Y team, the first time they had all been together, and as the game progressed, the Qye rapidly accumulated polish that comes with practice. They put up a much more scientific game at the , finish than at the start. In the Interim, the high school five strove grittily, and strenuously to combat Its heavier and bigger opponents but the players weie handicapped. Fumbling', due to lack of practice on the "Y's" part and probably lack of experience under lire on the part of the youngsters, was predominant throughout,. At the boginnlng of the ' first and second halves the lads ripped off pleasing accuracy and combinations but were soon smothered down and again put on the defensive for the rest of the sessions. Both contingents of . fans email as they were were Im mensely pleased: the older team fol lowers because of the apparent suc cess that lies before them and of the collegians' for their gritty tactics against severe odds. The highs have little to fear of teams their own weight, or the Y's from any ' aggre gation that may ramble this1 way. Lc?-'s!ded scores notwithstanding, the game was entertaining to the finish. .

Don't have a hot oven for simple milk puddings or the milk will curdle. Don't foriret fresh meat should be put In boiling water, salt meat in cold water. Don't let sour boll, only nlminer, as the excellence of the soup largely de pends on this. Don't fry anything unless the fat Is boiling, because it makes the food heavy or sodden. Don't forget in boiling meat that it must not be allowed to boll. In boil ing vegetables do not let the boiling stop. Don't wash meats more than Is abso lutely nettwsHry, especially game and fowl, because It has a tendency to de stroy the natural savor or sweetness. Current Comment.
