now taking cookery lessons, but they
are taking them in disguise. F'avor-

praise from the teachers are taker
home by the novices after the first
lesson to be sampled in private.
No one knows except the teacher
that the tall, dark-haired woman who
is so patiently struggling with the
rudiments of baking points and bail

There are far more prominent
women who are taking lessons now
than there have ever been before,"'
said the principal of the National
training school of cookery, "but we
make nn. distinction between them
and our other students, and no one
knows them but ourselves.
'"I had titled women in my class,"
said Miss Evelyn Mercer, who now
teaches unoer the name of the 'Busy

at the school, "who had" never beer

At first they were hopeless; they did
not know one article from the other
but they showed aptitude and! soon
learned to cook."
"Undoubtedly more, prominent peo

with kitchens ane cookery, are taking
cookery lessons now," said' Mr. Mar

"and they are doing so because they

criticism i;or conditions c'ver which
he wiX have little or no control. The
Republican party will be praised or
blamed, as the case may be, for its
administration or the civil; service
regulation, cy executive rder, iV
nuiiing the examination of applicants
for postmastership. Under the
Butlesevi regime and the executive
order of President Wilson, the man
standing at the top of the list was
supposed to be chosen, and usually
was. The Harding administration
modified the order by permitting the.
selection to be made from among- the
first three; and Postmastr-Genral
Hays, who is something cf a poli
tician, having been chairman of the
Republican national committee, has
been accustomed to call in 'congress
men and ask their advice regarding
ne appointment of; orie candidate out
of the first three at the top of the
list.
This procedure no doubt is g-o"od

of its own, but it may not appeal
quite so warmlv to the advocates -of
