FRIDAY, DECEMBER 9, 1921 The Good Old Pumpkin Pie A "pie hound" writes from Balti- more, Md., to the New York Times, asking where genuine old fashioned pumpkin pie can be found. He refers to the many people who look hack longingly to "pies of ye olden days, all gloriously brown, with a crust so crisp and tender it would melt in your mouth," i This is a complaint that will be echoed by thousands, not to say millions of people. These are the de- generate days. The typical pumpkin pic of these times is a squashy sort of condition, in which the due propor- jiojL^L_creamy_milk -isJackingi^aftd^j ] which consequently has a watery and vegetable sort of a taste. Moreover the crust is the greatest crime. Rammed through some large oven without that personal affection that Mother used to glvTlo^evcfy one of her noble creations, it is a soggy bit of uncooked dough, sickening to the taste, and afflicting to the memory of any person who ever lived in the country and was familiar with the culinary triumphs of 25 years ago. It is a machine made product and lacks even that careful oversight which wholesale production is sup- posed to give.. Formerly good cooks used to glory and exult in their triumphs. Their fame would spread beyond the. limits of any one township. At the food sales of those days people would en- gage the product of a favorite pie maker for weeks in advance, and the output of the old reliable cooks was all sold ahead. But nowadays the glory of /Jsrael has departed. Cooking is esteemed a distasteful art, and it is considered that it interferes with intellectual de- velopment. Our friend the pie hound will have to look,some distance be- fore he finds the old fashioned pie for his Christmas-dinner. building they would w*nt would cost $10,000 to $12,000. So they fixed up a deal with the Masonic order, by which for a rental of $420 annually they get two -floors in the Masonic building for a community center. It is expected to meet expenses by rent- ing the hall for entertainments. Their new quarters are a hive of civic and social activities. During one week they had these events: Lecture oh rural sociology, sewing demonstration, conference of Amer- ican legion, banquet for railroad men, dancing party for manual training school, party for children. When a community center is provided, it stimulates all forms of useful activ- ities.

The Christmas Seals A fifnr~philanthropy is the one rep- resented by the Christmas seals, now sold all over the country to assist the anti-tuberculosis â€"campaign. This philanthropy differs from many others, in that it seeks to remove the causes of a great evil. Tuberculosis causes more fatal re- sults tfiair^aiiy^othnerfdjse^seT^here being 120,000 deaths from this dis- ease in this country during the last year reported. The anti-tuberculosis movement holds health classes and nutrition clin.ics. It builds up the health of children and young people so that they are not so" likely to fall victims of this plague.

Providing Community House* While many thriving towns and cities have no general meeting place for their citizens, yet others with less population and wealth drive ahead and secure civic centers.
