JPOLITICAL.
By M. J. Webb
Speaking of violation of the pro-
hibition law, A1 Smith says such
condition will not exist under his ad-
ministration. Let's see whether he
is such a scrupulous executive after
all. New York ratified the Eigh-
teenth amendment and passed en-
forcement laws repealed and called
his state enforcement officers about
him and told them he wished them to
be as faithful as ever, and as they
made cases turn them over to the
Federal government. He knew it
was contrary to law for a state officer
to represent the government. This is
one time when the governor was guil-
ty of deception.

We hear a great deal of religious
intolerance and the union of church
and state these days. It is because
the Roman Catholic church is in-
tolerant and opposed to religious
liberty that she is opposed. The
Roman Catholic church openly says
that it is her mission to bring the
world to acknowledge the pope and
be governered by him, but then we
have only to look at other nations
■where Catholicism is regnant—Italy,
Mexico, et al.

in bar-rooms, and does not contem-

is uniformly sold, is a barroom.
Al Smith says if the government
will name a per cent of alcohol, and
let each state sell not to exceed that
amount of alcohol content, his views
will be met. Well, it has named that
alcohol content already—one-half of
one per cent , but antis don't observe
it, and they would not observe it no
matter what per cent was named.
They never did obey the law and
never will.
Canada has a law that only one
bottle of booze can be sold to one

On returning from Oklahoma Mr.
J. R. Lindsey reports to us that the
cotton crop in that section has gone
to the bad very rapidly under the
scorching sun and hot winds. Some
weeks ago it looked as if central
Oklahoma would make the largest
cotton crop in many years but now,
in many localities it will take twenty
acres to make a bale and this ia not
confined to any small area but seems
to be general over the state.

close of church services Monday night
preaching a big sermon he thought

|ESPITE its high nutritional
value and piquant flavor,
cheese has been a much
aeglected food on the
American menu, although
consumption is now steadily In-
creasing. The European influence
Is growing, and precise housekeep-
ers always keep it on hand and see
that it is invariably placed on the
table along with the sweet or fruit.
It does add a final touch of sophisti-
cation to a meal.
With the help of the medical pro-
fession and the scientific dietitians
cheese Is gradually becoming rec-
ognized as an important element in
the dally diet and as a substitute
for meat, eggs and other high-pro-
tein foods. The wide variety of its
uses, however, is still pretty much
of a culinary secret. Every one, of
course, knows how delicious a Swit-
zerland cheese sandwich can be on
occasion and how this particular
kind of cheese lends color as well
as savoriness to a cold platter of
ham and crisp green pickles. The
same versatile product of Switzer-
land is just as delightful made i?*-o
a salad or dessert or served as a pi-
quant appetizer or as a helpful ac-
cessory for serving at a company
luncheon or party.
Alpine Canapes: Cut thin slices
of bread into round3 with a small
cookie cutter and saute a delicate
brown in melted fat. Cover each
canape with Switzerland cheese cut
very thin, Bpread lightly with mus-
tard, sprinkle with very finely
chopped boiled ham and in the cen-
ter of each place a halved stuffed
olive, cut side uppermost. For add-
ed daintiness arrange a border of
finely chopped hard cooked egg
white all around each capape. Serve
these as the first course for a
luncheon or supper.
8wlss Tomatoes: Select small
regular sized tomatoes, scald, chill
and peel them. Then hollow deep-
ly. Chop together enough boiled
tongue and enough Switzerland
cheese to make four tablespoon-
fuls each, one thin slice of onion, a
spray of parsley and two pickles.
Mix with mayonnaise. Pill the to
matoes and serve with mayonnaise
on lettuce bordered plates.
Gutrune's Scullions: Try these
for supper or luncheon. Wash ten
der green onions and boil in just
enough salted water to cover, then
drain well and season with salt and
paprika. Toast a slice of bread for
each person to be served and ar-
range on warm plates. On the
bread lay thin slices of Switzerland
cheese, then place the onion on the
cheese. Pour a little hot melted
butter on each and serve ^t once.
Switzerland Waffles: Prepare a
gingerbread batter and bake in the
waffle iron. On removing the waf-
fles place thin slices of Switzerland
cheese on each and fold together.
Serve with iccd tea, milk or butter-
milk for luncheon or afternoon tea.
Cheese and Cherry Rings: Cut
white bread into slices one-quarter
inch thick, then shape with a
doughnut cutter into rings. Dip in
a batter made by beating together
one egg, one cupful of milk and a
half teaspoonful of salt. Then fry
in deep fat. Spread each ring with
preserved cherries and top with
cubes of Switzerland cheese. Serve

he came to an abrupt corner on the
highway and while making the turn
a cow walked dire tly in front of his
car. In trying to miss the cow he
turned the car too far to the edge
of the road and slipped off into the
ditch, hurting him quite severely and
almost completely demolishing the
car.
Ae he was pulling himself from the
wreckage several gentlemen said to
be of the Mosheim community, drove
up and stopped and after learning the
seriousness of the preacher's trouble
loaded him into their car and brought
him to Clifton where his wounds,
which consisted of a bad cut on the
side of the head and numerous minor
cuts and scratches about the arma
and body, were treated by Dr. D. A.
Carperter.
Elder McCaleb missed only two
sermons as the result of the accident
which were supplied by Elder Witt,
the song leader. He has resumed hkt
place in the pulpit and no one coold
tell by his manner of preaching that
he had ever met with an automobile
accident. Brother McCaleb's many
Clifton friends sincerely regret his
unfortunate accident, but are truly
glad that he -was not more seriously
hurt.—Clifton Record.
