"Being a guest has some re-
sponsibilities," Miss Johnson
points out. 'qf you are going to
a dinner, it is quite necessary
that you know the hour you
should arrive, and be there prop-
erly attired at the correct hour.
It is customary to come several
minutes before the appoint,(
hour of serving. The amount of
time may vary, but from five to
ten minutes is all right in most
places. This is a courtesy to
you hostess, who has planned to
have her meal at an appointed
hour. This will give her ample
time to visit for a minute or two
before doing the last minute
tasks which are necessary for
any meal.
"Likewise for a party it is
most courteous to arrive a few
minutes before the appointed
hour so that the hostess can be-
gin ber party on time.
"If you are going on a visit to
a friend or relative, it is quite
essential that she know when
you are to arrive. If you are
coming by train or bus, she will
want to know exactly which one

Better Breakfasts
) ETTER breakfasts mean bet-
) ter coffee, so we take for
granted, before suggesting
other delicious breakfast foods,
that you are using fresh 100-per-
cent-flavor coffee, which is now
available to everyone, by buying it
vacuum-packed. And what will you
serve with it? Let's see.
Something different from the
usual ham-and-egg breakfast is
most desirable at this season when
even the easy-to-please become
finicky. Look over your luncheon
and dinner recipes and see if you
have some light, appetizing dishes
which may serve on breakfast
menus. Chicken dishes are deli-
cious at breakfast. Fresh mint

System of Impeachment
Originated in England
The system of impeachment embed-
ted In the federal Constitution was
copied from that developed in England
over a period of four centuries. The
earliest recorded impeachments by the
house of lords were those of Eord Lati-
mer in 1376 and the Earl of Suffolk in
1386. All subjects of the king were
made amenable to impeachment In
parliament, irrespective of wtmther or
not they held public office. Under the
American system the process applies
only to officials. In England notables
were impeached for crimes of any de-
gree, but commoners could be im-
peached only for offenses not punish-
able by death. Upon conviction the
house of lords imposed any penalty tt
chose• The process of impeachment
was usually directed against offenses
of injury to the state. The ordinary
courts had power to try and punish
offenders against the written laws, but
they could not take cognizance of
many offenses such as the official mls-
conduct of public ministers. It wa
considered appropriate, therefore,
that high offenders against the state
and even of great influence and power
should be tried by the lords, upon
the accusation by the commons, who
compose(] the "grand inquest" of the
nation.
Several Distinguished Sons
Mrs. Washburn, of Livermore,
Maine, had three sons governors, four
members of congress, two senators,
two ministers plenipotentiary, one ma-
Jor-gener'd and one naval captain.
Cadwallader Colden Washburn was
governor of Wisconsin and srael
Washluwn, Jr., was governor of 5Iaine.
There were seven brothers, of whom
four sat in congress from four differ-
ent st,qtes. Elihu B. Washburne, one
of the brothers, was secretary of
state and afterward minister to
France. The cradle in which these
boys were rocked is still shown in the
old home town.
