PXGE TEN MEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE. MEDFORD, OREGON, THURSDAY, MARCH 17, 1932. TO "Good cooki ar made, not born," eaya Mis Heath, expert home econ omist, who coii'wji tw Med ford on Mar. 20, 30, 81 and April 1, to present her famous aerlea of culinary lecture The Kitchen Chautauqua." "I have yet to find a woman who cannot prepare a taaty meal when Inspired by a real appreciation of her true culinary responsibility, Mia Heatl; continues. "The fact that some women are possessed of more Imagination than other In bhe development of recipe of their own making Is rery true; but If a woman will take little care to develop her Ingenuity and con sider cooking aa an adventurous ex periment and problem, Instead of as a mere workaday task, every woman Is bound to be an excellent cook." Mtas Heath declare that one of her greatest enjoyments In her cooking school work with the famous "Kit chen Chautauqua" Is that of hearing many original recipe from women at tending the schools and then testing tfiem. She says that she ha stumbled upon a great number of recipes which ahe has later worked Into her cook ery programs very successfully. Miss Heath respectfully request ihat all housewives attending the Kitchen Chautauqua here on March 29, 80, 81 and April 1, bring Just a many of their own favorite recipes as poestble. Bhe will be glad to discuss them with her audience and to try them afterward. One thing which a large number of observers of cooking practices find to be true, la that the American housewife 1 now casting about on her own Initiative for new Idea In cooking. Bhe no longer follow grand mother's lemon pie recipe and Aunt Emma' .chocolate cake recipe exact ly and word-for-word, but varies the time-honored method to see If ahe can't work out some better one. Until recent years, the principle of cookery were handed down from mother to daughter, and the Inherit ed vice often went along with the virtue. Very often Mother had ex cellent success In making chocolate cream pie, but had many shortcom ings when It came to making any thing else. In thene' days, Miss WrnWi finds, daughters are eager to seoure the latest information on every variety of home economics problem and to enlarge their recipe book on every variety of dish. This newspaper expect Miss Heath will do a large share In making "good cooks" on her visit here. The time la fast approaching, and we urge that you make definite plans right now to attend. The Kitchen Chautauqua will not be a dull, routine maw of Informa tion about times and temperatures not a minute of It. It will bristle Hoboes Shed Flannels; Answer Call of Spring By Eta Kealon They're shedding their red flan nels and hanging them on the willows, In a branch of Medford's mtle hobo Jungle on Bear creek, north of Jackson. Two flaming leg were seen there yesterday, swaying In the early spring breeze, while a gray-haired, whiskered "bundle atlff" fastened the sleeve to the budding tree. Beneath him others of his clan leaned over the muddy bank to continue with their "wash." They are on the go again for spring ha come to the road. When February 35 roll 'round, the "migratory workers," a James OIU define them, "continue their search for something." Xn his shoe repair shop on South Riverside yesterday, he voiced a strong objection to the lump def inition applied by the public to the men. who travel, free. Men beside whom he has slept In Cali fornia, Tennessee, British Columbia and way point with only the stars for cover. "A hobo la not a bum," he ex plained, with a far away look In his eyes. "A bum doesn't work. A hobo does, he's u necessary as any other man to the production of crops In this country. He's Just looking tnr something he never finds.' "Why doe he go? Just to be go ing." the cobbler's look expressed thought far removed from mended shoes. "If In the blood I guess, you've heard of the wanderlust. I've tried to settle down of late, but I don't know If I will. I've been here 13 month now." He turn ed to survey the shop, where shoes stood In even rows, undisturbed upon the shelf. On the counter In front of him were several sheets of paper, filled with lines of poetry' He continued to scribble with his pen. "Tea, I'm from England. One out of nine to leave home. I started from Lancaster when I waa 16. Bought a round trip ticket that time. Got a Job, worked half a day, and quit. I had money In my pocket and felt Independent. "Twenty-two years ago Z came to America. Z made my way singing songs. They called me the camp- fire entertainer. I made Yellow- atone park each season for five years. My favorite songs? Those my mother sang, 'Bonny Mary of Alggle' and "The Meeting of the Waters.' The hoboe liked 'Mucker's Dream best." He paused to sing a few line of the song, which pictures free beds with clean linens, capital lata at the concrete mixer, and hoboes for bosses. I've carried a bundle Just XI miles, and I've ridden all the trains In this country. Just slept by the fence, washed my face In the creek, and went on. Hoboes never got hungry while the train 1 going. when It stops. Its time to eat. I've fought with the braklea, been thrown off, and all the rest that goes with the game. "The first mnn In camp Is the boss of the Jungle. There' always a can In the tree. At least there used to be. The first man take It down and sends the other out for food. When the hoboe move on. all self -respecting one, wash the can and return It to the tree for the next fellow. "There aren't any Jungles In Eng land. Vou can always get a night's lodging there for two or four cents." The coldest spot on the road. Mr. Oil! described a a stretch between Reno and Virginia City. With two other hoboe he made the trip on foot one winter day when snow covered the mountain between the two cities. He made It all right, but had to force hi pardner to push along to keep him from freezing. "Sweethearts? Sure," he confess ed yesterday, "You have them wher ever yuu go. But there's Just one girl for one man. the world over." He changed the subject Immediate ly, "The best Thanksgiving dinner I ever ate waa In a Jungle. Where? Let say In California. We had three turkeys. Does It matter where they came from? I didn't ask them that." He resumed his writing with a chuckle. "I waa a guest that day." with all sort of thrilling, spicy, new short-cut to easier and simpler cook ing. This eaaler and simpler cook ing will give you better meals In the long run, because It stresses the In genuity In which you may prepare your meals at half the time And at half the work grandmother did.
