Attendance At The Chronicle Sponsored Cooking; Course Shows Daily Gains.

IS BIG SUCCESS Nearly "700 women gathered In the Egyptian theatre this afternoon for the final session of the four-day Chronicle Cooking School that has been held each afternoon before splendid audiences. Miss Llsinka Brown, demonstrator who has made possible the fine success of this Chronicle school, which has been held through not only the aid of this paper but also the Central Illinois Light company and a number of co-operating merchants, was highly elated with the splendid attendance of the lafct day. "Demonstrators always regard the first two days of a cooking school as a curiosity time, but yesterday when we had better than 600 here, and today when the attendance was larger, I feel confident that perhaps I was giving these DeKalb community women something about cooking that they were interested in hearing," was the way Miss Brown stated her opinion of the school. Women Differ From the women who attended the comments were much more enthusiastic and positive. "Best cooking school I've ever attended," "I wouldn't miss a session," and "We postponed our Aid meeting in order that we could all attend the cooking school," were some of the comments that were heard In the theatre lobby during the course of the four days.

Several features made the school successful. One, of course, was the excellent demonstrating work that Miss Brown has carried out during her four days. Another was the fine programs that were featured each day before the session, with the Grayce Conn School of Dancing troupes performing on Tuesday and Friday, Countryman, the magi-clan appearing on Thursday and the trio of accordion players and singers from the A.iderson Music Store making a bit on Wednesday. aoaition mere were numerous Mb 1 "fdwsiited to the women each day, a feature that seemed quite popular. Print Means Slips containing the lous recipes and menus that were given out each day were distributed at the school, but the crowds were even larger than had been anticipated and a number failed to receive these.

As a result The Chronicle has made arrangements to start running these recipes with Saturday's Issue, and they will be found annealing in order for the next several days. Last evening Miss Brown Invited the co-operating merchants and a few guests to a splendid supper that was served on the stage of the theatre. The meal, which had been prepared during the course of the school In the afternoon, proved to be a regular banquet and brought many fine compliments to the ability of the demonstrator. This afternoon Miss urown demonstrated a dinner menu of stuffed pork roast, steamed peas In turnip cups. baked cranberries, spoon bread, orange and grapefruit salad and spple role; a thrift cooker meal of chicken sweet potatoes and pineapple upslfV down pudding; a surface meal of South American rice and dried fruit compote and broiled fish with lemon garnish, buttered vegetables, old fashioned spice cake with Mocha frosting.

Berlin, Nov. 15. U.R The status of the German Jew under the Nazi 1 Reich was fixed finally today, after months of study, by a decree In the official gazette. Chief provisions are: 1. Jews cannot be citizens, but only state subjects, and only cltl- zens may vote.

2. All Jewish civil servants must resign by December 31. They, and war veterans, will receive, pensions on tne regular scale according to rank. 3. Jewish teachers In Jewish public schools may remnin In their Jobs pending an exact definition at their status.

4. Generally no non-Jew may marry a Jew, but there are provt- sions for waiving the rule In special I cases. i 5. "Aryan" maid servants in 1 Jewish households may remain in thetr Jobs If by December St they will have complet-d their 31st year. 8.

Foreign Jews resident in Germany are subject to the laws: foreigners generally who are not residents are i not. affected. (This would applji aa, regards mixed -marriages). "Define Jews The decree stipulates that a Jew under the meaning of the law Is one who has one or mors Jewish grandparents, or one married to a Jew at the time what are called the Nuremberg Jewish laws the basis for the decree were first Issued. However, until additional flnnl rules are promulgated, citizenship wjll be permitted persons who have not more than two Jewish grandparents.

As to the marriage laws. In certain circumstances an exception may be made to the ban on mixed marriages. In such cases a special permit must be obtained from Wll-helm Frlck. minister of Interior, or Rudolf Hess. Adolf Hitler's deputy as leader of the Nazi party.

Factors to be taken Into consideration In an appeal agnlnst the mixed marrlagw ban will Include the personal appearance of the applicant, the length of residence of his or her family In Germany, and the possible war service of the applicant or the applicant's fnther. Must Bee Frlck In event one applicant for a mixed marriage permit Is a foreigner, the ban will not be automatic: but Frlck must be consulted. Hitler has blanket power to mak an exception In any case of mixed nfarrlage. As regards marriage provisions In general the decree stipulates that "marriage ought not to occur where the expected progeny may endanger (ihe purity of) German blood. As for "Aryan" maid servants In Jewish homes, a concession has been made.

The original Nuremberg law. which Is applied under today's decree officially, specified that no "Aryan" woman of less then 45 years could work In a Jewish home. The decree Is signed by' Hitler, Frlck, Hess, and Franz Guertner, minister of justice. jef Make Changes when the automobile in which she was riding struck one of the traffic signals at Fourth Street and the Lincoln Highway.

Asmara, Eritrea, Nov. 15 (U.R) A bloody fight on the edge of the Dan-akil "hell hole" between native As-kari troops under Italian officers and Ethiopian warriors including the savage, merciless Danakil tribesmen was described today in dispatches from the front.

As the dispatches came in it was anhounceoithat Italian airplanes had bombeoSta large zone south of Ma-kale, on, the northern front line, and officers newly arrived, described guerrila fighting that left no doubt of the development at last of real activity. It is fighting of the old school in which, as always, mm are the final factor. The fight on the plateau edge, overlooking the wild Danakil country, occurred between Ethiopians and the native column under General Mariotti and Colonel Graziani, which is on the left Cank of the army which occupied Makale. It was at Azbl, Si miles northeast of Makale. As the vanguard of the Italian column approached the lit-tia town the earr Euoraing Ethiopian warriors artnd ixa modern Mauser rifles and machine guns opened fire.

The Italians replied and there was serious fighting. It ended in an Ethiopian rout, and the Italians occupied the town. Among the Ethiopians were Dan-akili, among the most savage fighters in the world. Lost Some Too After the fight the Italians counted 65 Ethiopians dead. They lost themselves 20 Askans killed, and four white officers and 46 Askans wounded.

One of the wounded was a coloneL The Ethiopians in their retreat carried their wounded with them. The Italians at once set up hospital tents to care for their casualties, and asked for supplies by airplane. An officer who arrived today from the western edge of the northern front, in front of the holy city of Aksutn, told me that his band of na tive irregulars were seeking out Ethiopian warriors as if big game hunting. The only way his men bad been able to engage in the five skirmishes they had with Ethiopians, he said was to track them down to water holes like elephants, tigers, and antelopes. Eager To Fight These irregulars have been combatting Ethiopian warriors and pillagers in the wild Adl Abo region, between Aksum and the Setit river, Infested by crocodiles and hlppoto-ml.

The1 are excellent soldiers, my Informant said, and most eager to fight At night they squat around the camp fires, he said, Joking and singing, and one can often hear them cursing the Ethiopians for running, as they say, like antelopes.

Nov. 15 (U.R While a quarter-million Jubilant, celebrating nationals shouted wild acclaim, Manuel L. Quezon, surveyor, former revolutionary soldier, and world statesman, today became the first president of the new Philippines Commonwealth.

With a prayer and a plea on his lips, Quezon took the oath of oRlce In the presence of thousands of countrymen and scores of world diplomats and civic dignitaries, gathered for one of the most brilliant political events In the Islands' 400 years of history. Quezon's- prayer was for divine guidance; his plea for the courage and cooperation of his countrymen through the ten year transitory period from which, on July 4. 1846. America's "Little Brown Urother" of the Pacific will emerge a free and sovereign nation of the world. The Inaugural was not lacking In pageantry, riotous celebration or impressive ceremony.

Two hundred fifty thousand persons, favored by a sun and clear skies, were jammed Into P. Burgos Avenue and public squares skirting the Philippines legislative building when the new government was proclaimed in a message from President Franklin D. Roosevelt of the United States at 8:25 a. m. Murphy Reads Decree Gov.

General Frank Murphy, now swom as the United States Commonwealth commissioner, read the proclamation from a flag-draped dais. The pronouncement brought to the verge of fruition a campaign for liberty waged by generations of Filipinos I since the bloody revolution against Spanish rule In 1896. Assembled on the sun -splashed stand were hundreds of officials, including Vice President John N. Garner, Secretary of War George H. Dern, Speaker of the House of Representatives Joseph Ws Byrnes, and more than two score United States senators.

Dern was President Roosevelt's official representative. Prior to Murphy's reading of the proclamation, the secretary of war delivered to the people of the Philippines America's official greeting and benediction. "We hope that you people of these islands may continue to look with grateful appreciation upon the day that set this beautiful land under the soverlgnty of the United States, and to feel that our sojourn here has been a benediction to you," be said in part. Gives First Address After administration of the oath of office. Quezon, Who once served im corporal In the revolutionary army and leader in the long campaign for Independence, delivered his inaugural address.

"We are seeking the frutlon of our age-old striving for liberty," he said. "We are witnessing the final stage In fulfillment of the noblest undertaking ever attempted by any nation in Its dealing with a subject people. "Under the Commonwealth our life ma ynot be one of ease and comfort. Rather. It may be one of hardship and sacrifice.

We shall face the problems which lie In our path, sparing neither time nor effort in solving them." In the background were strongly reinforced detachments of Islands constabularymen, guarding against the slightest sign of disorder. Recurring rumors recently have told of purported plots for assassination of Quezon and other governmental leaders by members of the Bakdal party and other left wing followers of General Kmillo Agulnaldo, revolutionary leader who once was president of a short-lived Philippines 'republic" or other extremist leaders. satisfy the wishes of the New Dealers.

It is an open secret that the southern states today are almost in a rebellion against the president of the United States.

"However, they are Democrats, and the opportunities of electing Republican congressmen in the south are niL But there are thousands of voters in the south today willing to support conservative Democrats In the primary against the sitting congressmen and the New Deal. i "If they have any encouragement at all they will elect over one half of the conservatives in the south that will oppose President Roose velt's policies."

Hated! bitterly by the Labor party because he joined the Conservatives in the present coalition government, he was defeated in his constitutency of Seaham after a vitriolic campaign by EL ShinweU, Laborite, with a vote of 13.3S0 to 17,882.
