It seems that the city officials,

many citizens who oppose the Idea
of a court house In the city park.

prizes offered for the safest ulr-
cral't by t he Daniel Guggenheim
fund for the promotion of aero-
neiitlcs. He was invited to witnes
the tests as trustee and advisor to
the fund organization.
Colonel Lindbergh and hla bride
brought Ihelr honeymoon trip to a
close yesterday when the famous

Alter observing the safety tests,
Colonel Lindbergh la expected to

ing the era ft , M v. Chase p ra ise d
Colonel Lindbergh's seamanship
and skill as a small boat pilot.
"1 told Colonel Lindbergh," he
said, "that even an experienced
yachtsman would he proud of the
feat hud had performed. To make
a I.OOU-mile trip up the coast
wll hout a crew or navigator, and
without any previous experience,
is noteworthy. Colonel Lindbergh
told me he had not encountered
the slightest trouble dining the
long trip."
Colonel Lindbergh's plane, w hich

since It was flown there the day
after his marriage; was taken back

fiction, starts in The Mail
Tribune Monday, Juno 21
Kvery woman who knows tha im
portance of vegetable, foods nml
wishes to make theso healthful
dishes tasteful, will welcome the
work of two groups of nationally
known rooking experts. These wo
men experimented ut length with
vegetables cooked in the various
ways. Their conclusions are of
value to everyone interested in diet
and health. Use little water in
cooking vegetables, llo not over
cook. Add a dash of sugar while
the foods are cooking'.
What does the dash of sugar do?
H does not make the vegetables
taste sweet as might Im expected,
but it intensities tho phiunnt fla
vors. It restores the freshness of
flavor. It helps to heighten the color
of the vegetables.
Try this Currof .on recom
mended by one of the experts.
Scrape enough carrots to make a
pint of pulp. Hoil in slightly sweet
encd water until tender. Then mash.
To the pint of ; ulp, add 2 well
heaten eggs, V teaspoon of salt.
' teaspoon of pepper, 2 teaspoons
of sugar and ' cup of cream, l'our
Into well-buttered mold. Stand
this in a pan of hot water and bake
in a moderate oven until firm. Turn
