Mlrxa Ahmad Sohrab of ; Persia
jold the Progressive Business Ken's
Club Thursday afternoon of JerusaV
lem's deliverance from Mohamedan
- ism. Bohrab is a member of the
Persian commission of education and
fs studying American social condi
tions. He vlvidlr depicted the en
trance to the Holy City effected by
the' British without firing a ehot.
"They came in sihglng 'Onward
Christian Soldiers,,' " related the Per
sian. .
Walter Jenkins and Hiss Kathleen
Cockbura, with other : representatives
of the Portland .Community Service aa-
" sociatlon, invited the club's support of
the recreational program which the
association has inaugurated In the city.
President Burntrager presented How
ard Everts Weed as chairman i of the
day.
" "Persian Goulash." concocted for Reed
college students Thuraday evening by
Sohrab, proved a delectable dish. He
chose, as his theme the social, status
of women In Persia, put and present,
and termed his random remarks "Gou
lash." i
"Woman is the eternal question in
Persia, as here," declared Sohrab. "She
has been compared to the rainbow, for
she Is many-colored and an illusion.
In Persia the woman Is confined . to
her home both day and night In
America she Is never home. The Per
sian man is never allowed to lbok Into
r the face of a girl, and, of course, he
never ' knows what he is missing'.
vorce is a rare occurrence, for the
Persian husband sees no woman but
hie wife, and therefore can make no
comparisons."
Reforms - in Persian marrlagei Ideals
have followed the high Cost of living,
according to the speaker. In the old
days Persian " kings had as many as
toe wives ; but today, 'with - wie high
cost of living a "very bothersome-' fac
tor, the present king is, not even mar
ried. Many Persians are today flnd-
tng the one wife they have one too
many. ..;,,,

manner for breakfast, for dinner
or for supper.
During these days of high prices, Karo has
become another word for economy. Thou
sands of thoughtful housewives have learned
that Blue Label Karo is not only a delicious
spread for pancakes, but answers every pur
pose where a sweet is needed.
Instead of paying the present high prices
for jams, jellies and preservesserve Blue
Label Karo on sliced bread, toast, pancakes
or waffles.
Do as the wise cooks are now doing: Use
Karo to stewdried fruit,! prunes; use it for
candied sweet potatoes, brown bread, muffins,
coffee cake and puddings, r
5 Karo Home-made Candy is the best for
children. It is wholesome, easy to make,
costs much less than store candy.
' Mothers give children Bide Label Karo
and sliced bread because it satisfies' Nature's
craving for sweets and takes the place of
candy.

There never was such a demand for Blue Label
Kmto as today. . Housewives everywhere are buying
it by the dozen can; Ask your grocer the price per
dozen. For economy's sake buy it this way.
