THE CONCORD DAILY TRIBUNE
Famous Cooks Os Yesterday
Aik! Today
ALTHOUGH the culinary depart
ment of the home has been gen
erally regarded as “woman's
sphere,’ some of the most famous
cooks in history have been men. The
experiments in cookery of Conde,
Grandi, Cardinal Richelieu and Alex
andre Dumas won international fame.
Conde spent a lifetime in perfect
ing bean soup, that being his specialty.
Ferdinand Grandi was the originator
of 700 soups before he found one that
suited him. He devoted his entire
life to studying flavor and trying to
find out how it could best be con
served by new and improved methods.
The eminent churchman and states
man, Armand de Richelieu, cultivated
the art of cookery as a hobby, when
ever he could escape from the affairs
of state. It was no less a personage
than he, who originated the mayon
NO DIVIDED ALLEGIANCE.
Theodore Roosevelt.
There are plenty of persons who
have already made the assertion that
they believe the American people have
a short memory ahd that they intend
to revive all the foreign associations
which most directly interfere with
the complete Americanization of our
people.
Our principle in this matter should |
be absolutely simple. In the first \
place .we should insist that if the im
migrant who comes here in good faith
becomes an American and assimilates
himself to us he shall be treated on an
exact equality with everyone else, for
it is an outrage to discriminate against
any such man because of creed op
birthplace or origin.
But fhis is predicted upon the man’s
bectaqing ’ n very fact an American
and Slothing but an American. If he
tries to keep segregated with men of
his own origin and separated from the
rest of America, then he isn’t doing his
part as an American.
There can be no divided allegiance
here. Any man who says he is an
American, but something else also, is
not an American at all. We have
room for hut one flag, the American
flag, and this excludes the red flag,
which symbolizes all wars against lib
erty and civilization, juifi as much as
it excludes any foreign flag of a na
tion to which wo arc hostile,
We have room for but one language
here, and that is the English lan
guage. for we intend to see that the
crucible turns our people out as Am
ericans, of American nationality, and
not as dwellers in a golyglot boarding
house: and we have room' for but one
soul loyalty, and this is a loyalty to
the American people.
John Wesley Did Not Know Women.
N. C. Christian Advocate.
John Wesley is unquestionably en
titled to a place in the very front
ranks of the great religious leaders
of the Christian centuries. The found
er of Methodism who kindled afresh
the flame of evangelism throughout
the English speaking world was by
every token a specially chosen vessel
of the Almighty. Yet this jnight.v
mail of God seemed to be utterly
larking in his knowledge of women.
All the evidence confirms that John
Wesley should have lived a celibate.
Charles Wesley had just prevented
his marrying the widow of a sailor
when the message came to Charles
that John was about to marry an
other widow, a Mrs. Vazielle. Why
such partiality to widows we are not
able to explain. Charles Wesley says
that he was thunderstruck to hear
that John has to wed Mrs. Vazielle,
but he went ahead and married her
and it. is general knowledge that
henceforth John Wesley’s home was
like the throne of Home of the ancient
gods, the dwelling place of thunder
and lightning. The blame for the
terrible state of affairs that existed
in that household-has been placed pri
marily upon Mrs. Wesley and justly
so. But not entirely. John Wesley
in a tract on marriage described the
duties of a wife to be two-fold: First,
she must recognize hersejf as the: in
ferior of her husband and second, she
must behave as such. Think of a
married man advocating such a doc
trine as that. Mr. Wesley must for
the time have forgotten his own
mother, Susanna Wesley, but even
greater than her illustrious sous, John
and Charles' Furthermore," John
Wesley on one occasion dared to
write his wife, that tornado of a wife
in whose breast burned the fires of
jealousy even like the fires of Ge
henna, as follows: “Be content to be
a private, insignificant person knoyvn
and loved by God and me. Leave me
to be governed by God and my Own
conscience. Then shall I govern you
even with gentle sway, and Show that
I do indeed love you, even as Chris!
the church.” All of which goes to
show that John Wesley was utterly
ignorant of the “female of the spe
cies” and that he should have lived as
did Francis Asbury, the founder of
American Methodism.

Many others, particularly in France
and Italy, became famous for special
dishes or for their expert cookery
m general. In New York and othei
large American cities, there are noted
chefs, today, who attract patrons to
the hotels or restaurants where they
officiate.
But the n-.astcr-cook of today is the

nutritious, and appetizing foods. Os
the convenience of these the chefs who
must daily cook for hundreds of

to millions of busy housewives these
foods, sanitarily and hygienically pre

thoroughfare complained that the for
