But later a few tasted lite-cooked meat and liked it much better than that they had been eating. To the fire-cooked meat was added spices and rude fiavorings. This was the first step toward the culinary artists of today. Man first cooked food over a fire on a wooden stick. Later he used an iron rod because he found out that the inside became cooked through the heat given off by the rod. Today there are many ways to cook it. For example. you can fry. baste, boil, or roast meat. At first a meal was the meat you were able to kill. Then in the Middle Ages a few more trimmings were added such as pies, bread, and wine. Today you have about everything edible a person can think of set before you at a dinner. But how were the advances made. They were made by the chefs and cooks the world over. Out of the brain of these men, for most noted cooks are men, came new and more spectacular dishes. Most of the famous dishes of the elite were the brain storms of famous men cooks in hotels and restaurants. ' This then is the reason for our Chefs and Bachelors Clubs. These boys are preparing to be the future male culinary artists of the world. Let us look on a typical club period. The lesson for the day is the baking of biscuits. On go the aprons: out come pots, pans, and other necessary materials used in making biscuits. Joe, the prize student, is saying, 'Put in two teaspoonsful of baking powder. Better put an extra two or three little teaspoonsful flour and some sour milk, then stir slowlyi'-' After ten minutes of stirring, he finds that the end of the spoon has dissolved. Undauntingly he puts the mixture in the cup. While waiting for the biscuits to bake he cleans the table. Noi lt can't be! Itis true! The biscuits are doncl Joyfully he shows them to his teacher. As he takes one out it drops to the floor. Crashl Bam! Thudl From the engine room is heard the cry. What's coming down ? With eyes full of astonishment Joe looks at his biscuit embedded some two inches in the concrete floor. Joe remembers that old motto, Try, Try again! and again attacks the situation. So you see that the future chefs are well on their way. MIKE DAVIDIAN -H-Q1 19W

Jzmfbr Red Cross C'ouncf7 JUNIOR RED CROSS COUNCIL President - - - John Altstetter Vice President - - Michael Davidian Secretary - Kathleen Niemeyer Treasurer - - Jane' Cuthbert Advisor - Miss Mary B. Kirk In l88l the Red Cross Society was founded by Miss Clara Barton, a kind, eager, peace- loving woman. As you no doubt know, the Red Cross is a world-wide organization. It knows all battlelines: it makes no distinction between race or religion. In time of War it aids the civilians and soldiers of the enemy as well as those of the allies. In time of peace it aids all people in distress. The Red Cross is, in, an indirect way, responsible for the winning of wars: that is, the morale of the soldiers is greatly built up by the kindness and patience extended to them from this worthy organization. Have you ever realized how many helpful and patriotic projects the Junior Red Cross Council of Lima Central High School has undertaken and accomplished this year? In the autumn, toys and other articles suitable for Christmas gifts were collected and sent to the children of Great Britain. In aiding the Red Cross to overcome a shortage of thread a Spool Day was set aside on which all students were asked to bring spools of thread. Let us not forget the Victory Day Book Campaign when the students brought books suitable for the use of Army and Navy men, This is the second successful year for the Junior Red Cross Council in Central High School. Chosen to serve on the council are twenty-eight capable students. This year a special group of committees assisted the president in the work of the council. A production and bandage committee, composed of girls, spent hours in making bandages for the use of wounded soldiers and civilians in Europe and the Philippine Islands. First aid classes were organized for juniors and seniors. For the children of European and South American coun- tries, another committee prepared albums showing the work of the American Red Cross in foreign nations as well as in America. Fo eggn Correspondence dab FOREIGN CORRESPONDENCE CLUB President - - - Marilyn Baker Vice President - Norma Rakestraw Secretary - - - Lucille Forton Treasurer - - - Claire Angell Advisor - Miss Gertrude Marshall If you look up the word correspond in the dictionary, you will find this definition: com- munication by letters. Think of the enjoyment in receiving a letter from a friend in a different state or country: think of the interesting and dilferent things you can learn from these people. The United States could be more closely united to South and Central America if more people would take an interest and correspond with our South American friends. Youths of America do not entirely realize the condition of the world, but they do know that it is impossible to correspond with our friends abroad because of poor communication and censorship. The students greatly appreciate the fact that nothing has yet happened to sever our rela- tions with South and Central Americag therefore, correspondence with these countries continues. The club has heard the following speakers: Mr. Bernhard Bing, a German-Jewish refugee, who related to the club conditions in Germany before and after the rule of Hitler: Miss Inez Agerter, who spoke on Mexico and displayed different articles from that country: Miss Jeanette Stuart, who showed moving pictures of Mexico: and Mr, Peterson, a former missionary, who spoke on Tibet, China, and Japan.
