The Easter Party.
Frorn Woman'a Home Companion.
THE principal feature of a child's
Eaater party wss a hunt for rab
bits of every kind, from minia
ture candy ones to a real live white
rabbit, which occupied a small gilt bird
cage prettily decorated- with ribbons.
Before tba hunt the children had no
knowledge that there waa to be a live
rabbit at the party; they were told
that bunnies were scattered about the
lower floor of the house, and that the
child who found the largest one would
havo the first prize. Numerous other
things, auch as peanuts, small candles,
and llttlo bare of broken candy, were
hidden in the varloua nooks and corners,
to the iov of the little hunters. A live
rabbit makes a delightful first prize.
A mechanical toy rooster was used
for a centeroloce. which If wound up
will nod lta head steadily and with great
regularity ror nair an nour. aucn a
toy Is, however, too expensive for the
average home, and tnere are many er
f active and less costlv centerpieces. An
extremely pretty one can be made of
while cotton Datting, rormea in ine
ehane of a hen's nest, the outside of
which should be eovd with smllax,
maidenhair fern or Easter flowers. The
nest may ba filled with prettily dyed
Easter eggs, on which are written the
names of tha children. If the names are
written on the egga with a piece of
wax, aharpened Ilka a pencil, before the
aggn ara dyed, tha waxed places will
not dye. Little brown rabbita can ba
bought for 6 cents apiece, and when
filled With candy make very pratty
favors.

ane can near many opinions con-
I I earning ' tha clash between stu-
V dents and faculty at Stanford,
ranging from tha revolutionary Idea of
extrema youth who shouts for personal
liberty or death, to that of conservative
aga which sees In all revolt only the
necessity for clamping on tha screws
mora tightly.
Isn't there room between thesa for
the mother's aide of such a question,
and is it not a view which pressea more
and more for a bearing as college ranks
Increase and traditions grow?
Tha colleges are recruiting from the
best blood of tha nation. They ara
mtherlnff tha best bred, the most pro-
fresslve, tha brainiest young men of
he country. And It Is at college that
a young man first comes consciously
to take his- moral and mental stand
points. His whole view of life, his
conscious purpose, Is formed under his
college training. It Is a serious con
sideration whether the college atmos
phere la to make for culture and
progress and sound morality or whether
It Is to foster loose ideas concerning
temperance and sobriety and throw the
weight of lta influence Into the mak
ing or personal iiceriy. personal , ud
ertv as though our American youth
needed any coaching along that line.
Forbidding drunkenness on the cam-'
fius is all right, say soma of these
ntrepld young men, but to do away
with liquors in the rrat houses is an
infringement on the, rlghta of man
hood, and thia they utterly . repudiate.
When mattera reach such a fevered
state there la apt to be an omission
of soma of the larger Issues of tha
question, by tnese less mature rnmaa.
Would any mother who Bends her
boy to college .regret the elimination
of liquors from the frat houses? And
aren't the mothers, especially Jf they
ara making soma personal sacrifices
In order to Keep ineir noys mere, un

supreme purpose, what ahall they do?
Sit quietly back and let the rebellious
youths have their own way? Give up
the" scientlfio and literary pursuits of

hall and an athletic arenar
Perhaps tha young men and maidens
who are so ready, with their promises
to walk out unless their whims are
acceded to have forgotten that tha
supreme purpose of education is the
making of character and that the col

responsible for failure of the students

Liberty and lawlessness sometimes
run very close together. It Is to ba
feared that President Jordan has been
so unfortunate as to gather' under him
a considerable number of those young
men whom he so aptly described In
his memorable statement: "You cannot
fasten a 12,000 education on a 60-cent
boy," or else there exists a mistaken
Idea as to what constitutes personal

fashionable when combined with heavy
laces such as Irish, Venlae. and also
tha fine Valenciennes. The silk Brus

becoming and keep that shspe for all
their hats as long aa t'ney like. There
may be slight changes In the shape or
the anale In which it Is worn but the
original style Is still noticeable. The
small toques are to oe worn, aurao uem
mad . entirely of flowera or f lowera
and foliage with a alg soft plume at the
left. The otner extreme is tne enor
mous hat with the brim 12 Inchea at
least and usually more, and a father low
crown. Then there are hats with high
round-top crowns and rather narrow
brims that turn up at the edge in front
and on one side. Some have square-top
crowns, very high and two-inch brims
with the lert side turned up Close to tne
crown. Many of the brims are drooping
either large and Irregular or small and
perfectly even. The wlde-brlmmed hats
are usually tilted at one side and are
often much wider on the left side than
on the right. The coarse straws are
preferred this year, and those a
little over an inch wide with the
scalloped edge are very fashion
able. The narrow coarse straws are
seen and the chips, leghorns and Pana
mas will be worn at first. The fine
hair braids and stiff square meshed
braids will be much In vogue. All
hats are trimmed high, tha crown being
aurrounded by flowers, plaited ribbon or
lace, or completely covered over with
tall riowers or plumes standing right
up at the appropriate place..-
HINTS FOR HOUSEKEEPERS
I
- Egg Cookery.
T is always a .satisfaction to the city
housewife who has to plan the fam
ily meals and also to consider ex
pense, when eggs drop ia price. They
are reasonably cheap now and may be
used freely ia the household. These
directions for egg cookery are given by
Fannie Merritt Farmer: ' '
Scrambled eggs may be varied' in
many ways by the addition of different
ingredients; but first let tne write of
filaln sorambled egga, for I find them so
mpertectly prepared by tha average
cook. Beat Ova egga slightly, using a
silver fork. Add one half teaspoon ful
of salt, one eighth of a teaapoonful of
pepper and one fourth of a cupful of
milk. Heat an omelet pan, put la two
tablaapoonfula of butter, and when melt
ed tarn in the mixture. Cook until of
a creamy consistency, constantly stir
ring and scraping with a tablespoon
from the bottom and aides of tha pan;
then remove at once to a warm serving
dish.
Four tablespoon fuls of grated mild
American cheeaa la a very' acceptable
addition to scrambled egga One half
cupful of asparagus tips, one half cup
ful of sauted -mushroom caps or one
third of a cupful of finely chopped
oooked ham may also be used to give
variety.
Scrambled eggs (slightly underdone)
poured over aix slices of milk toast..
sprinkled with four tablespoonfuls of
grated mild cheese, then put in the oven
to melt the cheese and finish cooking
tha eggs, are known aa eggs a la Buck
ingham, and are. to my mind, simply
delicious.
Sorambled eggs with tomatoes are too
good to paaa by. Fry one slice of onion
and four tablespoonfuls of butter two
minutes, then remove the onion. Add
ona and three fourtha cupfuls of canned
tomatoes and two teaspoonfuls of sugar,
and cook two minutes; then add six
eggs aiignuy beaten, one hair teaspoon'
ful of salt and one eighth f a teaspoon'
ful of pepper. Cook same as scrambled

Room for Playi'
The little folks whose main occupa

life and making ready for tha manhood
and womanhood that is coming to them
as sure as fate. And the kind of man
hood and womanhood that they develop,

depends on the lessons they have

fee and tea tanks, the aoup tanks, the
bean tanka and tha rest. You see the
electrically operated potato paring ma
chine. Just like the one used in the mod
el kitchen of the world at West Point
You visit the butcher's shop, where
about 2,000 pounds of meat is served out
and cut up each day.
Then you go to the scullery and see
tna dishwashing machines, also copiea
from those in use at West Point and
all large hotels. You visit the bake shop
with its intense heat and the bake
room's' store' shop, where the loaves of
nreaa are piled up line so many corns
of wood. Yoir go to the sick bay and
see a hospital in operation comparable
favorably in every way to the best ap
pointed hospital on land. You visit
tha operating room with its fullest set
of surgical appliancea You even go to
tne brig and you aea wnere men can oe

simply be restrained, the latter being
the prevalent form for light 4pnnisn
menta You may attend the "mast,"
where tha captain every day holds hla

may read In tha log what has been done
In each ease. You may attend the sum
