ENGLISH COOKING,
THOUGH UNHONOURED IT CAN BE EXCELLENT
·
[BY A FRENCHWOMAN.]
The other day I red in these columns an article stating that Eng- lish food is the best in the world.
As a first principle, the cooking in his native land is to each person best. It seems to me, however, that "English cooking does not re- ceive the praise it deserves, either in England or in foreign coun- tria
Sport in a parlour rather, than a trial in a police court was the impression of yesterday's proceed ings at the Mansion House when Dr. Dorothy Logan, of Harley
There are. I think, two reasons: street and King's College and other London hospitals, was fined £100 Jack of variety for one thing, and the fact that the best dishes are and £10 10s costs for making a often spoilt by carelessness and false declaration with her trainer, neglect of that little detail which makes all the "piquant" and the the omnibus-driver. Horace Carey,"rathind" of a dish. who was fined £30 and £3 58. costa, in the noto.dous Channel swin henx.
The Mansion House Courts really more of a parlour than a police court, and the chief actors in the interesting trial were well known people in the world of
sport.
Sir Rowland Blades. M.P., the Lord Mayor, who tried the ease, 74 well known as a keen and capable cricketer. Mr. G. D. Roberts, who defended Dr. Logan, is a handsome giant and an international Rugby forward. Mr. Charles Wallace, for the prosecution, is a bread. shouldered athlete who captained bis college in the Rugger game at Oxford. Mr. C. Gallop, who de excellent fended Carey, has athletic record.
ALE
That Delicious. English Meal
Breakfast....
This is not, happily, a general rule, and I have tasted lovely meals in England. May 1 a French woman, praise mint sauce, the vesh ness of your fish, the flavour of our mod haddock, the quality of your meat, and that delicious men, your English breakfast and bacon, marmalade, hot rolls,
uns, and so on?
Delightful Ples And Puddings. There are many other delightful things; for example, the pies, either meat or fruit-the latter served with fresh cream-and certain boiled puddings. It is already a long fist-shall I add chutney and pick les?
As to your vegetables, perhaps it would be better not to speak of them, though, as a Frenchwoman, I think you do not enough vegetables You consider them, too. as mere companions to hent and therefore most of them are insipid. The Traditional Roash Baef. It might be that in other coun- Meriries you find, as your correspon
dent did, some tasteless roast beef; but you find the same thing un- fortunately, in far too many Eng lish restaurants
Miss Gleitze Present. Also in equrt were Miss cedes Gleitze, the London typist Mr. Channel; the who Bwana Temme, Another Channel-ron-..
When I am in England give me queror; and Miss Ivy Hawkes, who
than one plucky real slice of roast beef, York has made more
shire pudding, and baked potatoes,, and a trifle with a lot of fresh effort to beat the Channel tides. "
Twe hours before the court open-cream or a cherry pie. ed a crowd, composed mainly of women and girls, collected outside the Mansion House.
Sir Rowland Blades was accom panied on the Bench by the Lady Mayoress, their twin daughters, friends: and several women Neither Dr. Logan, por Carey was asked to enter the dock, both being provided with chairs in the well of the tiny court.

Then I will say that if English cooking is perhaps not the best in the world, it is nevertheless excel-
lent. "

She was dressed in a black Council Mental Hospital Committee, gown with short sleeves and open who recomunead that the Council neck, curiously suggesting a swim- should make representations on the ming costume.

i prophylactic for adopted as muntal deficiency, but are bl opinion that it should be made illegal for ns mentally defective person under a detention order to marry.
After carrying the hoax. through, Dr. Lagan had no idea that way statutory dechration would have to be signed.
"Punished Enough.". She has really been Danished enough, if I may take the liberty of suggesting that," said fr. Roberts. She has had the worst possible things said about her publicly, although, of course, she cannot complain about that.
"She is able-I only say liable as a member of the medical pro fession to retion being taken against her by the General Medical Council. Is any further pumah ment really necessary?"
Mr. Gallon, for Carey, said that had it been appreciated that the necessity might arise for a stata tory declaration or an affidavit te he brought into existence, Cares would have been horrified at the idea, and would have washed his hands of the whole thing.
The hoax became an old man of the sea" and boo unwieldy to manage. Carey offered to the court an unqualified apology.
The Lord Mayor: I must find you, both guilty of making false de. clarations. You are not before me for heaxing the public, but for committing an offence akin to per- jury, for which you could be sent to prison. You have treated with contempt and ridicule the impor- tant and most convenient part of our legal system applying to the whole country, and not only, the City, by depreciating the value of the statutory declaration. That is On the A most serious offerice. question of character, we accept the fact that it is of the highest in both cases.
Dr. Logan was granted 8 months and Carey 2 months in which to pay their fines and costs.
Mr. Roberts said. Dr. Logan might possibly appeal.
Mr. Richards (clerk): You will have seven days to consider the matter, and notics must be given in writing.
