C," according accord-ing to Sherman P. Snyder. "Her dinners din-ners were noted for the originality in 'bening delicious, appetizing viands, I as well as the taste and richness of the service.

Some of the prominent business men of Ogden have already commented comment-ed favorably on the energy and enterprise enter-prise of the Evening Standard in securing se-curing the services of such a rioted cooking authority as Mr. Snyder. They have even gone farther and promised that their homes would be represented represent-ed at the Scientific Cooking Lectures and Demonstrations next week. The Interest that our beat citizens are evincing In this cooking session by promising that their wives and daughters will take advantage of this wonderful opportunity, rominds us of the now celebrated quotation from the writings of Samuel Johnson, "A niau seldom thinks with more earnestness earn-estness of anything than he does of his dinner " Best Cooks Have Decided to Com pete for Valuable Prizes. Not only have a number of the leading lead-ing women of Ogden and the vicinity already signified their intention of attending at-tending the Evening Standard's Scientific Scien-tific Cooking Course, but a strong spirit of friendly rivalry has developed among some of our best culinary ar-tiBts. ar-tiBts.

She does the same things over and over in the Bame old way, which may be the best way and may not; ordinarily It Is not. And in noarly every case even tho most ordinary dishes are prepared differently by different cooks Doubtless all of us have observed this ourselves Did you ever find any one who could cook quite like your mother. Haven't you observed, when a guest at different homes, how the favors of the foods differ? Each Is in a rut all her own, and the fact that this is so generally true is evidence evi-dence that few cooks follow scientific scien-tific methods, but that each has developed de-veloped a system and a "stylo" all her own. Young Ladles Especially Invited. The Evening Standard has had a special thought for tho many young ladles of Orden and vicinity who are looking forward to the time when they will superintend tho cooking In their own home.
