Orpheus Music Club Met
With Elizabeth Neel
A special feature of the Or-
pheu.s Music club was the Doll
Festival held in connection with
the monthly meeting of the club
Friday afternoon when Elizabeth
Neel was hostess to the members
at her home in Wilkesboro. Twen
ty-six dolls, long-forgotten ones
and new ones, all came to the
meeting and were proudly dis
played. After a brief business
session with Winifred Carlton
presiding a Doll’s program was
given by different members of
the club.
The program was as follows:
Doll's Lullaby, Carolyn Sue Liu-
ney; Dancing Doll, Elizabeth
Neel; March of the Cookie Sol
dier. Pauline Church; Dollie’s
Festival. Peggy Somers; Clock-
Work Doll, Winfred Carlton:

The witness chamber was
smoke-tilled and tense. There
was a hubbub of excited talking
among those who wore there.
There was perspiration on their
foreheads—on all. Hands nerv
ously clenched cigarettes and
smoke filled the room as all but
one agreed:
“It's horrible.”
But In’ the face of Foster's ap

death by gas is more humane.
He is Dr. C. A. Peterson who in

“I think it is more humane,''
he said.
But he wa.s alone in his opin

' For her fame as an ome-

’"An omelet can be tough and
dry like Irish moss. Or it can
display all the virtues of a new-
laltf egg, tender within, yet firm
and determined without, yielding
the promise of good substantial
fare. Here's my method. Yours
may vary a Jot or so but on one
point we'll agree. The eggs must
be fresh. Two to a person and
then one more. Drop a lump of
butter into an iron skillet that
has been polished clean as a tea
cup. Whisk up the eggs, with
salt and pepper, and let them
cook slowly and tenderly in the
skillet, over a middling flame.
When the eggs have acquired a
firm glaze on top run the tip of
a spatula around the curved
edge. Flip one half the omelet
over the other and gently lift to
a hot platter. That’s all there
is to a Madame Poulard omelet.
