THE ROCK ISLAND ARGUS 12 MONDAY. JUNE 23, 1913. COOKING SCHOOL PROVES SUCCESS AS ANTICIPATED NEW CUBAN ENVOY . ARRIVES AT CAPITAL i The Argus Course of Instruction Attracts Much Attention From Women. "AT THE EMPIRE THEATRE Mrs. E. 8. Siple Gives Lecture Dem onstration Before Enthusiastic Audience. PROGRAM FOR TOMORROW. MENU: Baked Ice Cream Lemon Pie Meat Croquettes. Well, we had a great time over at the Empire theatre this afternoon at the opening of The Argus' free cook ing school. Mrs. Siple is quite a wiz ard in things culinary. It seems to me, the nicest thing about Mrs. Siple Is that she i-t decidedly practical. She doesn't talk In terms which we common every-day housewives could not under Bland, but her remarks flash common fccnbe. Her talk fitted in well with the menu she prepared which was as fol lows: Biscuit Lemon Cake Salmon Croquettes After the lecture-demonstration was over, one woman asked Mrs. Siple if he was a suffraget, but Mrs. Siple didn't seem to want to get into a polit iral discussion and evaded the ques tion by saying that she Is militant in but one rt spet t and that is in regard to the high cot of living. She said that v. ith a rolling pin and kitchen tpoon she loi-es no opportunity to 1am baot the aforesaid high living cost, aim iu.il u Mie was not. ho ousy piol-: winc mf.nu wiii iJP SPrVeG alone with ting and waging war utainst the high a brlef lecture which Mrs. Siple states - i:.j ...h mm 'mm S3G TomorrowGreatest One Day Sale We Ever Held In The Month Of June ....

Senor Galdos is a lawyer and a close personal friend of the new president of Cuba, Mr. Menocal.

He ia the president of the National University of Cuba. cost or living, she might not be a suffraget, which by the way, seemed to me ns a very clever way of an swering the question. A remarkable thing about today's menu was the manufacture of the lem on cake which was of an extreme ricli nature, but which was made without a Ii;rti(le of butter. Mrs. Siple says that sho is going to teach every women is one of her pets: Meat Croquettes Colonial .Bread Baked he Cream. Ltinou Pie.

Uttea laws and then be laggards about mak ing it possible and easy for the coun try to take advantage of the change? There can be only one answer to tbat Question. We must act now, at what ever sacrifice, to . ourselves. It is a duty which, the circumstances forbid us to postpone. I Bhould be recreant to my deepest convictions of public obligation did I not press it upon you with solemn and urgent insistence. . PRINCIPLES ARE CLEAR. "The principles upon which we should act are also clear. The coun try has sought and seen its path ia this matter within the last few years sees It more clearly now than it ever 6aw it before much more clearly than when the last legislative propos als &a tLe gnhlpri were made. We must have a currency, not rigid, as now, but readily, elastically respon sive to sound credit, the expanding and contracting credits of everyday transactions, the normal ebb and flow of personal and corporate dealings. Our banking laws must mobilie re serves; must not permit the concentra tion anywhere in a few hands of the monetary resources of the country or their use for speculative purposes in such volume as to hinder or impede or stand in the way of other more legitimate, more fruitful uses. And the control of the system of banking and of issue which our new laws are to set up must te public, not private, must be vested In the government it self, so that the banks may be the Instruments, not the masters, of busi ness and of individual enterprise and initiative. "The committees of the congress to which legislation of this character is referred have devoted careful and dis- ! passionate study to the means of ac complishing these objects. They have honored me by consulting me. Ttiey are ready to suggest action. I iiave come to yon, as the head ol the gov eminent and Uu "affin'hl't inrif" ei)j?ri3L the party in power, to urge action now, while there is time to serve the coun try deliberately and as we should, in a clear air of common counsel. I ap peal that you share this conviction. I therefore appeal to you with confi dence. I am at your service without reserve to play my part in any r.ay you may call upon me to play it in this great enterprise of exigent reform which it will dignify and distinguish us to perform and discredit us to neglect.". HOI.IW CLOSE ATTENTION. The vigor and strength of the president's message held the rigid at tention of a large audience through out its delivery. The chamber was filled with senators and representa tives, the galleries were crowded with men and women of the official set and the corridors about the gallery doors jammed with tho3e unable to gain en trance. The president gave no direct en dorsement to the Glass currency bill, which is lo form the basis of the democratic revision cf banking laws, but in indirect language made it known It was prepared witfc bis counsel and capitol at 12:55 and vent to Speaker Long before capitol doors opened to day hundreds lined up in a eteady rain in the hope of getting to hear Presi dent Wilson deliver hia address to congress on currency reform. Al though attendance was rigidly limited to one card admission for each mem ber of either house and provisions for the president's family and cabinet cir cle, hundreds clamored for admission. Railings were erected near the en trance doors, guards placed in charge of entrances and a "ticket choppers" box was installed into which ticktt3 were to be thrown as the fortunate applicants appeared.
