Paper-bag cookery, which, in a few veeks.has taken Australia by storm, has nade its appearance in Auckland (tele[raphs our local correspondent), and bids air to become almost a craze. A leading ocal firm of grocers has got in a large took of the special grease-proof paper, ind has commenced making it iuto bags if which some thousands have already >een sold, the demand being at times ilmost more than the firm could supply, ilr. George George, director of the Auckand Technical College, was seen by a ■eporter yesterday in reference to the new ysfcera of cookery, and gave his impresiions of it. "A number of experiments have been ionducted at the Technical College," said Jr. George, "with pretty general success. Hiss Kenwick, who has just arrived from England to take charge of the domestic icience department, has had charge, and ;he results show that the method has :ertain claims to consideration, though t also II3S certain drawbacks. The chief idvantagcs claimed for it aro that the vashing of dishes is rendered unnecesiary, and that the food is more evenly looked. . In the ease of moat it would ippcar that tho paper bag is somewhat .uperior to the ordinary roasting dish, ;hough the- time required for cooking is nuch longer. A cooler oven has to be iscd, or otherwise the bag would be nn-nt. Tho meat so-called has a diferent flavour from that roasted in the irdiuary way, being more liko that looked by the steaming process. Again :he washing of dishes is not altogether lone away with, as a. dish has to b9 used or making tho gravy." Tho most noticeable feature of the iaper-bag method (he continued) was hat slow cooking was required to avoid ranting the bag, and he thought that ;ho times given on the printed direction iheets wero much too short. Hβ could lot see that much was to be gained by looking vegetables and sweets in bags, [iuleed, some vegetables—cabbage for ixample—must be cooked in an open pot, :o that the vapour could get away, othervise the colour and flavour would be lecidedly objectionable. Miss Renwick iad told him that, when she left Engand, the cram was rather on the wane, ind he was inclined to believe that it .rould be dropped in a little while. At Jresant the cookery pupils at the Techni:al College were being'instructed in this nethod of cooking, and a public deruonitration would ba given shortly. A Social Evening. A social evening, given by members of the Mnranui Social Club, took place in the Maraiuii Church hall last week, about eighty people being present.

Hay, Moran, Man■lerson, and Stewart. A ox? hibition was given by the Misses Bedford and Moore. A novel feature of tho evening was a shooting competition for ladies, which, after a keen contest, resulted in Mrs. Smith boiucr the winner, with Miss Smith runner-up. Tho '• :! trimming competition for men brought publicity fourteen aspiring milliners, ■ created no little amusement. Mr. ''a.lies won the first prize, Mr. Clatcr, junr., coming second. The musical accompaniments were played by Miss M'Bean. and Mr. Gini. The success of the evening was largely due to the efforts of Mr. Clater and Mr. Carmen, who carried out the duties of masters of ceremonies. .1 meeting to arrange about a concert for Miss Theliiia Petersen was held in :he Chamber of Commerce last evening, tn addition to the list (already publish2d) of thoso willing to assist, several jther letters with promises of assistance liave been forwarded.
