YOU CANNOT MAKE FRIENDS IF YOU ARE A POOR MIXER

No Man Has Ever Lived Successfully Unto Himself Alone, Martha Lee Tells Oscar, Who Asks Recipe to Cure Lonsomeness. By Martha Lee Life is a game of give and take. “Each for all and all for each,” is the thread of song running through existence, and the happy, well-rounded life has this for its theme.

No man has ever successfully lived unto himself alone. The “poor mixer” has not learned this. Social mal-adjustment is his trouble. If he would get his rightful share of joy from the passing of the days, he must learn the value of contact and participation with others in this troup game of life. If he will make the effort, friendliness on his part will eliminate shyness; consideration for the other fellow will replace selfishness and dislike and the “poor mixer” can change into a contributive and cooperative member of society. Alone Most of the Time Dear Martha Lee: I came from a small town to Indianapolis almost a year" ago. I thought I would get along better, but I cannot say that I have. Loneliness is my trouble. I am a poor mixer. I don't care much to be with people and as I have no • near relatives. I am alone most of the time. I guess I have that “inferiority complex” I’ve read about. Can you help me? OSCAR L. M. You can come out of this lonely Oscar, but you’ll have to Pvork. People don’t care for us if we don't care for them, and vice versa. Notice and find out what the folks with whom you are thrown in contact at work are interested in. Then talk to them about these interests. This will open your mind to things outside of your own little round and will make them know you are human. Resolutely refuse to wrap yourself about in your own thoughts. Really, the world is like a looking glass. It gives back what we give out. Go to Dances Alone? Dear Martha Lee: I am married, but I am only IP. I dearly love to go to dances and my husband won't go with me. Now should I go alone? Please advise me. DANCE LOVER. Don’t go under such circumstances. You are almost sure to bring disaster to your domestic life

I Pains Thai; Never Came Here’s glorious news for long-suf-fering womankind! To every woman who periodically has suffered pain. Menstruation need no longer be painful. And it is Science that is speaking. Specialists have developed a tiny tablet called midol. It’s a simple thing, utterly harmless to a girl of fourteen, but it brings relief in five to seven minutes. And is effective twelve hours or longer! Midol is NOT a narcotic. It has no effect whatever on heart or nervous system. It acts directly on those organs affected by menstruation. They function normally, as they should, but the pain is banished. Complete relief—yes, perfect comfort —follows midol. Your druggist has midol for 50 cents, in a slim aluminum box to tuck in your purse. Mv&oV Takes Pain Off the Calendar

if you do. What you say constitutes one of the strongest arguments against young marriages. Girls who aren’t ready to settle down should think twice before marrying. He Does Not Appreciate Dear Martha Lee: 1 have a good husband in many respects and there is nothing I enjoy more than to cook. wash, clean and sew for him and try to please him. I never run around to theaters or dances and would not care to, unless he was with me. However. the more I do. the less thanks I get. Can’t husbands realize that a little word of praise means lota to a woman? A. M. J. Most of us take as a matter of course the good that comes into our experience. Husbands are just human beings, and often forget to be appreciative. It would, indeed, make household machinery run easier if husbands, and wives also, remembered how valued is occasional praise. * Marriage or a Career? Dear Martha Lee: lam an artists' model and dancrr. My home is in New York, but since coming her to Indianapolis. 1 have met a young man who says he loves me and who asked me to marry him. He is extremely jealous and because he objected to ray work. I have given it up. , . But twice lately I have seen him with another girl—once at a show and once at dinner. Now shall I marry him or drop him and go on with my wor.t? I have turned down several chances to marry because of. m.v work, before BTFUL Only you can know which pulls strongest at your heart strings—ambition or love. My guess would be the former. However you can scarcely let your decision rest upon the young man's two engagements with the other girl. Sometimes circumstances or a coincidental meeting create appearances. Be fair to him.

The WOMAN’S DAY By Allene Sunuier The wavy-headed hotel chambermaid bore in my laundry and anxiously opened the box for me. I hardly knew my own mundane paraphernalia. What a rainbow box was that! Pastel shaded tissue paper glorified each prosaic garment. Sheets of jade and rose and violet tissue paper in stockings and lingerie, and ironed pleatings adorned the most nondescript nightie. ‘‘ls it all right?” anxiously inquired the curlylieaded maid, as she whisked the room to rights. SEVEN PAIR A WEEK ‘Yes’m, we have to change the beds every day whether you stay or not. Millions of sheets they wu.li in this hotel a week. No’m, it doesn'tseem exactly necessary somehow t< put on clean bed spreads every day when the same person’s in the room but we have to be careful. People in hotels are so fifiiky, so we den • take chances. I’ve cleaned and changed beds in twenty-five rooms today- Hard? Oh, not most times, only my four little children all have measles and I have to lock them in when I come to work. The oldest girl, she’s 10, isn’t so. bad but what she can wait a little on the others, but I keep thinking what if the house catches fire or something. IT’S NICE JOB ‘‘Yes’m, my husband is dead. I never thought of having to work while we were married. A grand husband and father he was. Every week his pay check turned over to me. Yes, there was a little insurance, but it Just paid the funeral. They’re so expensive nowadays. I can’t really complain because I got this job quite easy. It pays sls a week and I only work from 7 to 4 and can get home before the stores close and get things for supper and j have time to do up the housework before we go to bed.” WHAT?—NO SOAP? She moved into the bathroom. Alarm in her tones. ‘‘Oh, I'll bring you soap right away, ma’am. I never noticed it was almost gone. And I thought you had three bath towels. I’m so sorry. I’ll get more right away.” “But there’s plenty of soap,” said I, surveying the four or five litt ! e bars, “ and I’m sure two bath towels will do.” But curly-head was not reassured. “The housekeeper would’nt like it at all- We have orders to leave to; much of everything, because folks complain if things begin to got short, even if there’s enough.” SAY IT YOURSELF It is very easy to do your own commenting on my morning visit with the chambermaid. The contrast of hardship with super-plenty Is too evident. Seven sets of bed linen a week, too many towels and tor much soap, and colored tissue paner in the laundry just taken for granted by a widow mother who locked four sick children In the house to go to work for sls a week and glad that she had the job! INITIATE THURSDAY The “Forty Hommes and Eight Chevaux,” an American Legion auxiliary, 1927, promenade will be held Thursday at the Hoosier Athletic Club, M. F. Hinkle, secretary, announced today. A program, including an initiation, will be preceded by a dinner starting at 7 p. m.

THE INDIANAPOLIS TIMES

The coroner’s lury releases Cherry but immediately she and her husband are arrested bv DEVLIN deDutv district attorney Faith is lunous when Bob tells her AT rORNEY STEPHEN CHURCHILL, whom he employed thinks circumstances art against Cherry and suggests a Dies ol self-defense as the best chance of hei freedom. Peculiar footprints and a bit ol tot. strap suggest that the murderer might boa cripple, but this evidence Is not presented. “Everybody gone to bed, dear?” Bob Hathaway asked when he arrived at the Myrtle St. house at half past 10 that Sunday night. “Dad’s on the job at the Pruitt wholesale grocery. Junior's gone to church with Fay Allen —I’m expecting them to be married any day now —and Joy’s just dropped oft to sleep, thank heaven,” Faith sighed wearily. “The poor little tad has been enjoying her invalidism today. I’ve read her at least sixteen fairy stories and helped her work four cross-word puzzles. Tell me what you found out about old Phil, the beggar. I thought you’d never come.” Bob kissed here eyelids very gently before he answered. “Sorry to be so Jate, darling. But I found it surprisingly hard to get any real dope on the old boy. He wasn’t on his usual corner at Lincoln Park, and Kelly, the old news dealer, said he hadn't shown up all day. Kelly says he used to live with his daughter down In Peach Tree Hollow—our beautifully named but odorous slum —but Kelly didn’t know the daugh ter's name. In fact, he doesn't even know Phil's last name.” “And he's known the beggar for five years?” Faith demanded incredulously. ‘Nothing so odd about that,” Bob answered. “You see, honey, old Kelly thinks Phil is beneath him socially. Kelly has a business—a legitimate business—that he’s proud of. and although Phil carries a box of cheap lead pencils and a few packages of stale chewing gum, on the pretense of earning his living as a peddler, he's really a beggar. It seems, too, that there's a sort of feud between Kelly and Phil, that Kelly didn’t like to talk about, but which has been In existence for more than a year. I gathered that the two old boys don’t speak to each other any more—” “But Kelly took your dollar to give to Phil,” Faith protested. “Os course he did, but you didn’t believ for a minute that Kelly would ever turn that dollar over to the beggar, did you?” Bob laughed. “At any rate, Kelly admitted to me today that he Is about as fond of Phil, the beggar, as he is of cyanide sandwiches. In a way, I'm glad he feels that way, for he won’t be likely to blab to Phil that someone has been taking an extraordinary interest in him. “I went down to Peach Tree Hol-

low, and searched for hours for a trace of the beggar. One evil-eyed old hag did admit that a crippled beggar had once lived there with his married daughter, but she either did not know or would not give the daughter's name. And at the house she pointed out to me as the cripple's former domicile I found a stolid young Polack couple who’d never heard of the beggar or his daughter. So there the trail ends, for the moment, anyway. He'll probably show up at his old stand tomorrow at the park and I can get a good look at him, at any rate.” “If he makes a pretense of Belling pencils and chewing gum he's got to have a license, hasn’t he?” Faith asked thoughtfully. "Couldn't you trace him that way?” Bob’s blue eyes regarded her with fond admiration. “Darned clever, these Chinese,’ 1 he grinned at her. "There’s only one drawback. We don’t know his last name, and it’s unlikely that he takes out a license merely as ’Phil the Beggar.’ ” “Don’t laugh at me,” Faith begged. “Do you think it’s absolutely ridiculous for me to suggest that he might have been hired to kill Mr. Cluny. hired by someone who had a grudge against him but who would not risk his own life to get even?” “Kelly says he is all crippled up with rheumatism and is sick half the time, so it does seem a little farfetched, except for one thing. Those footprints do measure almost exactly the same.” Bob antwered. “I haven’t given up Phil as a possible suspect by any means."

OH, FOR AN INDIANA RAINY DAY, SAYS ILENE The Raincoats They Wear in France Are Gorgeous, She Writes—And Sports Clothes Are Darling.

Here’s another letter written an Indianapolis tirl from France. These letters, telling of styles abroad, will appear ill The Times Tom time to time. CANNES. Feb. 21. Dearest Sue —Back to Paris we go tomorrow, much to my sorrow. Life here has been very gay, the weather so sunny and everyone so happy and carefree—and such an attractive Spaniard has just loomed over my horizon, that I am loathe to leave. Father is as set in his way n the Indianapolis street cars, so back we go. Everyone looks darling here and I hardly know where to begin. People dress here as though they were going to the Indianapolis Motor Speedway races all the time. Such adorable sport clothes. One of the prettiest coats I saw was tan kasha with a notched absolutely plain leopard collar, tailored belt and pockets, made of quilted material. The wearer looked as narrow as a pencil and the coat had more style for a woman with good lines than any model I’ve seen. The tendency in one-piece silk frocks is to emphasize the normal

BREAKFAST—Stewed figs, cereal, thin cream, creamed fresh beef on toast, crisp bran toast, milk, coffee. LUNCHEON—VeaI loaf, creamed new carrots, radishes and young onions, graham bread, canned strawberries, cocoanut cookies, milk, tea. DINNER —Salt codfish pie, buttered beets, French endive with French dressing, baked apple dumplings, whole wheat bread, milk, coffee. The codfish pio combines potatoes, parsnips and tomatoes with freshened salt codfish In a most appetizing fashion. It also forms a laborsaving "one-piece” meal if desired. The veal loaf is good, hot or cold, cut in thin slices for luncheon or supper. Veal Loaf One and one-half pounds lean veal, one-half pound fresh pork, two eggs, four soda crackers, one-half cup cream, one and one-half teaspoons salt, one-fourth teaspoon pepper, two tablespoons minced parsley. Remove gristle and bone from meat and put through food chopper. Mix thoroughly. Beat eggs slightly and add to meat. Crush crackers and add alternately with cream to first mixture. Add seasonings and work mixture with a largo wooden fork or spoon until perfectly blended. Pack Into a cleep, well-buttered oblong pan. Cover with buttered paper and bake ore hour in a moderately hot oven. Remove paper for last fifteen minutes of baking. Turn out of pan onto a hot platter and cut in thin slices to serve.

waistline. Several gimplte little frocks are sure to find their way Into my wardrobe. A straight lire coat of pink kasha with sliver kid belt all worn over a pink crepe de chine dress st'tched with a silver threads was a lovely thing. An unusual outfit which I saw yesterday was a little yellow-haired girl with a yellow crepe do chin 6 frock with pleated skirt and white collar, and she was wearing with It a silly calico box coat quilted like a Normandy skirt. It had figures in green, and she wore a tiny green straw hat. The new sports skirts, my dear, would be the inevitable "knockout” in Indianapolis if you could manage to have the first one. They have very tricky pleating that makes designs in some utterly unexplainable manner. One was a rose-colored skirt, pleated in circle waves and in the regulation manner, worn with a pink kasha blouse banded In deeper rose. I have seen the model in tan and deeper brown, and also white with green, and each time it is effective. I have seen raincoats here that make me sigh for the rtfiny season, they are so appealing. Silk in plain colors, in plaids and stripes, has been rubberized and makes coats that you would like to wear downtown for tea. They have scarf collars, bows, colored linings and capes that reveal the deepest scarlet —regular toreador costumes —the Spanish influence in my life. Must go. Do write and keep me posted on Indianapolis gossip. Love, ILENE.

Ten Commandments for English Girls COALVILLE, England, March I.— Ten commandments for th. modern girl have been formulated by Fae ther Joseph Degen, Coalville prelate. They are: 1. Don’t parade with an fall dressed up and no place to go” air. 2. Always tell your mother where you are going and with whom. 3. Don’t accept gifts of clothing; jewelry or money from men. 4. Don’t let boys treat you to Intoxicants. 5. Avoid demoralizing, unsupervised dances. 6. Beware of the man who offers you a joyride—especially if all you know about him is that he has a Charlie Chaplin mustache and scented hair. 7. Hockey, lacrosse, tennis and dancing are healthier forms of excitement than street flirtations. 8. Beware of the man who, after a ten-minute acquaintanceship, wants to put his arm around you. 9. If you find a really decent boy friend, be true to him and introduce him to your parents. 10. Don’t expect to go through life dressed in silk and chiffon, wait id on and never doing any hard work. You must be useful as well as ornamental. WIRE HANGER The children’s school coats will last longer If each child takos a wire hanger to school. Try This Simple Method For Blackheads If you are troubled with these unsightly blemishes, get two ounces of Caionlto powder from any drug store. Sprinkle n llttlo on a hot, wet cloth and rub over the blockheads. In s few minutes every blockhead, big or little, will be dissolved away entirely.—Advertisement.
