Mary Goddard The Oldent l.lvtns Treacher." TODAY Mary Goddard will celebrate her 106th birthday anniversary. Sunday, as usual, she will likely go to the little Quaker meeting house, where she will preach, as she has done for the past eighty years, for notwith standing her advanced age, Mary God dard. is still actively engaged -in the only interests she has ever known. The venerable woman lives in Bruns wick. Maine, where she has watched the growth of the Society of Friends through three generations. She began her duties as "preaching elder" many years 'before the use of railroads for practical purposes in the district where she lived. She traveled to her devo tions in Newport, Rhode Island, a dis tance of 200 miles by chaise. With others of her faith, she followed the custom of the times and enjoyed the hospitality of other Friends en route. fahe is the single survivor of the pe riod when the men of the church wore their hats during the services and the women removed theirs while speaking. At that time the church was divided into two sections with a curtain be tween. On one side sat the men of the congregation, and on the other the wo men. Her preaching career reaches back far beyond the time when musical instruments were first introduced, into her church, or Bible schools had. been started. Mary Goddard Is remarkable not so much for the things that she has done as those that she has not done. She has lived all of her life within a radius of a few miles of the home that she now occupies in Brunswick. In the pursuit of her duties as "preaching elder" her work has been to bring ma terial aid as well as inspiration to the people about her. The events of her life have been the quarterly Quaker meetings which she has attended, at a distance from her home. The preaching elders of the Quaker church differ from the rest of the con gregation in that they occupy a. bench facing the main body of the church. They speak when they feel the inspira tion to do so and are silent when they do not feel inclined to speak. Much of the responsibility of the needs of the congregation reverts to them. Mary Goddard is surprisingly youth ful for her years. She appears little older than the average woman of sev enty. She is still vitally interested in the welfare of the people about her, particularly that of the younger gen eration and at a time of life when most women would willingly consent to being ministered to. Mary Goddard is still ministering. She is a familiar fig ure in her community in her quiet Quaker shawl and bonnet. As fre quently as not she goes about her re ligious duties unattended and is often on the street alone. SiNTPSfiOTS By Elp.rb.ara Boyd. This Concerns Von, AS CITIZENS, we are rather a happy-go-lucky set- Things generally go so well with us in this country that we do not bother ourselves much about the affairs of government, unless some one thing strikes at us specially and then we rouse ourselves for the time being. If we or some member of our family get typhoid fever through careless oversight of the milk supply, or if the gas rate is made higher through ma nipulation of politicians, we rise in our wrath and publicly hold mass meetings and protest: though in many cities the likelihood is that the same people will be voted in at the next election. But as a rule, we take our civic affairs rather easily and good-naturedly, and though we know that in many instances they are not conducted as well as they might be. we shrug our shoulders and that Is about all we do in the matter. But we really govern ourselves, or I A. nViKfrrto. vnrr . we have, tha opportunit t d go, a.ndg?-ggatltnte cwt YQg-wae ptlco. But we really govern ourselves, or if we are not well governed, it is our own fault your fault and my fault. We can't escape this conclusion. And for the sake of our own welfare, our children's welfare and the welfare of our neighbors, we ought not to try to escape it but to face it. Those who are willing to delve into dry statistics for the sake of digging up Tacts that may help us to better con ditions have brought to light some rather startling evidence of our indif ference or culpable ignorance. Here are a few things we should think about, for after all. it is up to each one of us to help remedy them: In one of our large Eastern cities, J200.000 is added annually to the cost or street cleaning by the things people carelessly throw into the streets. That means that if you or I live in that city, we have to put our hands down into our pockets and help pay our share of that $200,000, just because we, or our children, or our neighbors ar careless as to the paper and banana peels and scraps of various kinds we toss into the thoroughfares. Now isn't that foolish? Doesn't it show a lack of ordinary common sense to throw paper into the street and then pay somebody to come along and pick it up? For that in reality is the process. We can save money and have it to spend for something more enjoyable than street cleaning by not only being careful ourselves not to litter the streets, but by teaching the children not to throw rubbish about. You see it is right up to each one of us, whether we are voters or not, to help remedy these matters. In fact, voting would not help at all. It is a matter, of cleanliness and carefulness. These same staistics show that from 25 per cent to 60 per cent of the cost of food could be saved by adequate con trol of public markets. Think of that! We could cut down our living expenses a half or a quarter if we would get busy and use our brains. But instead we sit still and growl about how high everything is. There are 3,000,000 people in this country always ill. You and I are at various times on this sick list. What is the cause? In many cases, something preventable. We are careless, or the city authorities are careless, as to our milk or water or sewage or something of the sort. And so we suffer and pay huge bills and lose valuable time. Let's think about these things. Sta tistics are a bit more vital than they seem. They bring matters that con cern our health and happiness right into the four walls of the home to be discussed over the dinner table and applied practically to our everyday liv ing. For. after all, we can start right in our own home the remedy for what seems like waste and Incompetence in our civic life. Civic life reflects the citizens. Each of us is a citizen and has his part to perform in making the community what he wants it to be. Pet Stock Kaisers fnlte. To encourage the raising and enre of YOU CAN LIVE ON THIS ONE FOOD.

Domestic Science By Lilian Tingle PORTLAND. Or., March 8. Will you please publish In The Oregonlan a recipe for English crumpets, also tell how they are baked in the muffin ring's on s greased griddles, whether on top of the stove or In the oven? I have tried both ways with this recipe and neither have been perfect,' al though it may have been because I do not know much about using yeast: Three cups tepid milk, one-half teaspoon salt, one-half cake compressed yeast, one-fourth teaepoon soda, two tablespoons melted butter, enough flour to make muffin batter, about four cups. I stir together the flour, milk and salt and dissolved yeast, then cover and stand in a warm place seven or eight hours (or over night), then add the soda, let rise in rings and bake. They are not as delicious as those I buy, and I thought possibly it was in tle method of baking. 1 should appreciate help very much. MRS. F. M. C. iJTT'XACK" and skill in baking are S. really the chief things in crumpet-making. Written directions do not help much. You have to learn by ex perience (1) just how thick to make the batter with the particular kind of flour you are using, (2) just when fer mentation has reached the best point for giving the characteristic honey comb texture, (3) how to recognize when the correct heat has been reached on the griddle and (4) the proper point at which to turn the crumpets. They are baked in muffin rings placed, on a griddle on top of the stove, never in the oven. The batter is poured into the rings and crumpets and rings are picked up with a pancake turner and turned together when the crumpet is full of holes and beginning to "cloud over" on top, and when lightly browned, underneath. After turning they are left on the griddle until the sides are firm and leathery. This "turned side" is only browned In freckles. Wrap them in a cloth as they come from the griddle. They should be limp and leathery in texture. When needed for use toast on both sides until crisp, butter generously with the very best butter, and pile one above another on a muffin dish. Serve "hot and hot," as their charm quickly fades. To aave trouble some American cooks make the crumpets thick enough to spilt before toasting, the result being nan way oetween the real English crumpet and the real English muffin "pretty good' only, and without the characteristic flavor and texture of eitner. ihe crumpets you mention are of this type more like muffins and much heavier than the "real thing." If you like that type, pour more batter Into your rings, cook it longer and split before toasting. This kind re quires less skill In baking. Omitting the soda, doubling the yeast and making a medium heaw "nonr" batter instead of a "drop" batter twnicn is. i. suppose, what vou mean by a "muffin" batter) your recipe is a iairiy good one for bread flour. A more spongy texture, however, is se cured by using a rather weak flour, say two-thirds pastry flour and two-thirds bread flour, and omitting the shorten ing. The soda is undesirable in any case. The amount of salt can be varied to taste. One teaspoonful of sugar may be worked in with the yeast to aid its growth. Following is a better formula: English crumpets: Three cups milk, scalded and cooled to lukewarm; one level teaspoon salt, one fresh com pressed yeast cake, one level teaspoon sugar, "soft" flour to make a medium heavy "pour" batter, slightly thicker than for ordinary hot cakes, not so thick as ordinary muffin batter. Work the yeast with the sugar and mix with two tablespoons lukewarm water. Add this to the lukewarm milk. Add the salt and gradually sift in the flour, beating hard with a wooden spoon. It is best mixed in a large wide-mouth pitcher. Let rise until quite double in bulk and very foamy, then beat well again and again let rise ln a warm place. Have ready a heated, slightly greased griddle and rings. Pour the batter about one-third inch deep or a little less for "single" crumpets or a little over one-third inch for "split" crumpets. Bake and serve as directed above. A slight amount of beating or stirring is sometimes needed before pouring the batter in order that the bubbles may not be too large. As the crumpets bake bubbles should rise in the batter and break on the surface, so that one side, when baked, will be smooth and slightly brown, while the other is honeycombed and freckled.
