Callousness of Youth l£ Not Waning Present Generation Has Capacity for Cruelty as of Yore. BY GBETTA PALMER, Tlmn S**ri*l Writer NEW YORK. Feb 2—Mr Westbrook Pegler, whose bailiwick Is not far distant frorft the spot where we are standing, has been conducting a heated debate with himself on the nobility of the young as compared with their parents. The December Pegler was a strong supporter of youth. The January Pegler, recalling scenes from his own childhood, hold that “you will find among the youth of any country as many evil-minded, lazy, cruel and generally no-good characters as might be disclosed by an accurate census among the equal portion of citizens who have managed to defy disease, war and the accidents of industry unto the age of —Just for a figure—so ” It Is our seasoned conviction that the January Pegler is right. Gang Rules in Girls’ Schools In spite of the sentimental and unlikely suggestion that little girls •re made of sugar and spice and all things nice our recollection of the gang we grew up with is less flattering. They were, at the age of 8, as hard-boiled a lot of little hoodlums as you could easily imagine. For malice, cunning and a mob tendency to make life wretched for any one not accepted by the gang in power there is nothing like a reined girls’ school. One of the most enjoyable features of the joyous school day was catching your little friend as she leaned over the water fountain and deftly bashing her head on to-’ the porcelain. The dentists profited on more than one occasion from this practice. Then there were long, happy hours spent in making faces at any little newcomer who might by good luck be feeling a little out of things. The local belles also got some pleasure out of ostracising one small dancing school boy for the sin of wearing the only Eton suit in the place. What a life he led! Pleased by Savagery Mo6t of us curly-headed little girls were tougher and more unlovely than we ever will be again. We took a savage pleasure m discomfiting our elders. A large part of our conversation among ourselves would have carried a heavy penalty if it had been sent through the mails. There is no reason to suppose that the 8-year-old girl of today is any more civilized or noble a character, and there is no reason to worry unduly over her future. It may seem, from present symptoms, that she will grow up to a life of lighthearted disreputability—probably as somebody's gun moll. But she probably Is no worse than you were when you were her age and had not heard the Innocence of childhood talked about by people who don’t remember their own. Know Seamy Side For a child really is a most alarming citizen. Some of the things that he thinks up in the way of torturing beetles and small animals would have won praise from the board of the inquisition. Yet it is from such unpromising material as this that our noblest adults emerge. And there, we have always felt, is the strongest of all arguments .against censorship, which is designed to protect the minds of the young from knowledge of the seamy side of things. The young themselves are often at least as tough as the most deplorable characters which are thrown upon the screen or limned in the novel. The 8-vear-old girl usually is better posted on the seamy side of life than she ever will in all probability, be again. Mrs. Hilkene to Speak “insurance Contracts" will be disputed by Mrs. Ruth Hilkene Monday night at the English before members of the National Association of Women- Mrs. izona Shirley will preside. This is one of a series of lectures on “Vocation” sponsored by the group. ton's * ■-.

Solution to Previous Contract Problem BY W. E.

Today's interesting hand was played by Mrs. H. E. Funk of Cleveland, one of the outstanding women plavers of the country. The bidding might be termed rather optimistic. Mrs. Funk in the south had no opening bid. but when her partner in the north bid a diamond, her proper response was a

Why Hospitals Use a Liquid Laxative

Hospitals and doctors have always used liquid laxatives. And the public is fast returning to laxatives in liquid form. Do you know the reasons? The dose of a liquid laxative can be measured. The action can thus be regulated to suit individual need. It forms no habit; you need not take a “double dose” a day or two later. Xor will a mild liquid laxative irritate the kidneys. The right dose of a liquid laxative brings a perfect movement, and there is no discomfort at the time, or after. The wrong cathartic may often do more harm than good.

A properly prepared liquid laxative like Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin brings safe relief from constipation. It gently helps the average person's bowels back to regularity. Dr. Caldwell’s Syrup Pepsin is an approved liquid laxative which all druggists keep ready for use. It makes an ideal family laxative; effective for all ages, and may be given the youngest child.

one-over-one forcing bid of one spade. West’s overcall of two clubs, while rather light, should not be termed dangerous, since he is not vulnerable. North’s jump to four spades is a slam try and was accepted by Mrs. Funk, who went to six spades. West’s opening lead was the king of clubs. If West had continued with the ace of clubs, of course, there would not be much play to the hand, as the hearts could be set and an entry gained into dummy with the ace of diamonds. W'HEN West shifted to the seven of diamonds, however, Mrs. Funk went right up with the ace in dummy and cashed the ace and king of spades, East discarding a club. A small heart was won by Mrs. Funk with the jack. Now five rounds of spades were taken, all the diamonds and the jack of clubs being discarded from dummy, which retained only ace, five and four of hearts. On the first four .spades East dropped three clubs and the. jack of diamonds, but on the fifth spade he was squeezed. If he had let go the king of diamonds, it would have established Mrs. Funk’s ten spot. However, he dropped a heart. Therefore, Mrs. Funk cashed her king of hearts, and then led the queen of hearts, overtaking in dummy with the ace and winning the last trick with the five of hearts.

Daily Recipe BEAN AND CELERY SALAD Another nourishing salad for winter luncheons en famine is found in lima bean and celery salad. Two cups lima beans (canned or carefully cooked dried ones), 1 cup diced celery, 1 tablespoon minced onion, 2 tablespoons shredded green pepper , 2 tablespoons grated cheese, French dressing. The green pepper, of course, can be omitted, but it gives a pleasing touch of color. A vivid yellow cheese is attractive, too, if avaUable. Mix beans, celery, onion and pepper, tossing lightly to avoid crushing beans. Pour on French dressing and arrange on crisp romaine. Garnish with grated cheese and serve more French dressing in a separate sauce boat.

THE INDIANAPOLIS TIMES

Some Errors by Cook Can Be Remedied Scorching and Curdling Effects May Be Eliminated. BY SISTER MARY NEA Service Staff Writer Sometimes it seems that “tempus fugits” faster in the kitchen than any other place, and that if one takes one’s eyes from the vegetables on the stove, they take it upon themselves to bum. The best of cooks occasionally makes mistakes, but her true art is shown by her ability to turn the failure into a success. Any vegetable that has Just started to burn can be placed—in its cooking pan—into a larger pan of cold water. The vegetable then should be shaken out of the burned pan Into a fresh pan or bowl, leaving any scorched material in the pan. If not cooked until tender, a little boiling water can be added and the cooking finished. Season and serve as usual. If things have not gone too far, most of the vegetables can be served without a taint of bum. Shake Instead of Stir An excellent habit of precaution for the new cook is that of shaking the sauce pan in which a vegetable is cooking. Often the smooth-cut, flat surface of a vegetable sticks and burns before the water is cooked. Shaking prevents this without crushing the vegetable as stirring might do. potatoes and sliced carrots are examples of vegetables that often scorch because of this flat surface. Too much salt often has spoiled the soup. A remedy for this is to add from half a cup to a whole cup of sliced raw potatoes to the kettle jof soup. Let stand ten or fifteen minutes, remove potatoes and serve. The potatoes absorb the excess salt. Remedy for Curdling If the mayonnaise separates, take another egg yolk in a fresh bowl and slowly beat in the curdled dressing, continuing as usual until all the lemon juice and oil is used. If a custard sauce curdles, beat it well with a dover beater. This same beater often will beat the lumps out of white sauce that has been made in too much hurry. If the sauce is very lumpy it can be rubbed through a fine sieve and re-

heated. If the breakfast cereal contrived to lump despite vigorous stirring a heavy wire w T hisk or a strong dover beater will beat out the lumps and make the cereal appetizingly smooth. Remedy for Curdled Soup A. tomato cream soup that shows an inclination to curdle can be converted into a thick tomato puree by adding butter and flour rubbed together in the proportion of 1 tablespoon butter and 1 tablespoon flour to each cup of soup. One tablespoonful of fine sifted soda cracker crumbs added to each cup of soup will correct the tendency to curdle, too. A gelatine jelly that refuses to stiffen in the required length of time can be hurried if more gelatine is softened in cold water, dissolved over hot w r ater and added at once tq,the stubborn jelly. If jam becomes hard and sugary before it is used up, place it in a moderate oven until the sugar melts. When cool, the jam is almost as good as new.
