BACHELOR COOKS
NIGHT CLASSES IN LONDON A cookery class for men only has been started with the opening of London County Council Evening Institutes. It is a most popular class with bachelors. Only one married man is a cookery student among 15 bachelors. He thought he would like to be able to do a little cooking when his wife was ill. The bachelors favour “nice, tasty little suppers,” and like to make what they call “stray things” (left overt and to know how to use up an “old shoulder.” When the school holds the annual exhibition, the men-cooks will show cheese-straws, jellies, blanc manges and sausage-rolls. Mr. J. P. Thomas, the principal, told a “Daily Mail” reporter that the men bought what they made to take home. “I asked one young man if he practised cooking at home, and he said they would not let him for fear he should show his womenfolk up.”
