Pauia Long watches Scott Stanley's interest in Dana increase Ronald becomes Jealous of Scott and e'ays wav, Dana wonders what has happened Mr' Cameron asks Scott to stop visiting Dana, but they meet at a dance and rrkleslv decide to marrv. Mrs. Cameron watches the wedding ceremony with a bitter expression In her eyes. NOW GO ON WITH THE STORY CHAPTER EIGHTEEN MRS. CAMERON kissed her granddaughter coldly, and shook hands with Scott. Aunt Ellen drew Dana close in her arms and, surprisingly, gate Scott an affectionate peck on the cheek. The minister congratulated them. Sarah brought a tray filled with wine glasses, and there was a toast to happiness. Then Scott was rushing Dana away, into the gray ear, and Mrs. Cameron was turning aside—perhaps to hide the sudden rush of tears to her eyes. - She was muttering to herself as she went up the stairs and her dark prophecy reachod Aunt Ellen and Nancy, “It won't last! It, won't last!” “Where in the world did Dana get (ho smart wedding outfit?" Nancy asked, her eyes on her sister. “She went out this morning and came bark loaded with boxes. Did she suddenly inherit a fortune or something?” “I’m sure I don't know,” Aunt Ellen lied bravely (and for the first time In her life), mentally praying for forgiveness. “She looks very sweet, doesnt she?” “Write to us,” Nancy called from the porch. Seott grinned at that. “Wish I could take you on a real honeymoon, Mrs, Stanley," he said. “But I guess that's out.” “A honeymoon doesn’t mean going places. It means being married—to you," Dana said. a a a Scott had started the motor. “Hey—wait!” he said. Stopping the car, he leaned over and kissed her. Dana blushed. “Just look at those people staring.” “Who cares about staring people,” Scott, said. Besides it's good luck to start a honeymoon with a kiss.” The car shot forward again. Seott said, "We might drive around the block. Then Ihe papers could say “Dr. and Mrs. Seott. Stanley have returned home after a short wedding trip.’ * Or we might drive around two or three blocks, and they could spread it ‘Dr. and Mrs. Scott Stanley have returned after an extended motor trip.” Dana laughed. “Or,” suggested Scott, “we might drive to our place in the country. And then it could truthfully be said that 'Dr. and Mrs. Scott Stanley left for an indefinite honeymoon stay, their destination unknown.’ ” “Our place?” Dana marvelel. “Have we a farm?” “Nothing so important,” Scott laughed. "To be exact, we have 25 ancestral acres with a bit of blue lake on them. There’s a shack which I've been calling nothing at all, hut which, henceforth, must be known as Honeymoon House. It has a few odd pieces thrown together. But at night the stars come out—” He broke off, as though embarrassed by the poetic sound of the words. Dana breathed; “How perfectly wonderful. What a darling place to spend a honeymoon!” tt a a /TT was something else for the 1 town to talk about. “To think of cooking your own wedding breakfast," one woman sniffed. “It might be rather exciting, at that, to cook a wedding breakfast for Scott.” her daughter answered. But most of the talking was done in Dana's grandmother's home and by Dana’s grandmother. “I hope she's satisfied!” Mrs. Cameron said. “Goodness knows I tried to warn her.” ' Mrs. Cameron had gone almost into hysterics after Nancy met Dana downtown and came home with the news. Dana had driven into the city with Scott for provisions. They were having such a marvelous time that they had decided to extend their stay, Dana said. She had caught a fish—the first of her life. And. with Scott's help, she had broiled it. One night they had pitched their blankets out under the stars. It was quiet and lovely. “Did you ever know of anything so ridiculous?" Mrs. Cameron had asked vehemently. Answe - . ng her own question, she had snapped viciously, “I nevpr did.” Later she had exclaimed. “A fish!” with such biting .scorn in her voice that neither Aunt Ellen nor Nancy had ventured to protest. In the privacy of her own room Aunt Ellen had smiled. It was nice that Dana was not one of those girls who required artificial excitement to make them happy. The honeymoon was destined to end abruptly because one of Scott's'* all-too-sow patients had v become worse. They returned to the city. “Just one of the disadvantages of being a doctor’s wife,” Seott told Dana. “I think it's dreadful for wives to interfere with their husbands’ professions,” Dana said with youthful fervor. “I promise you I won't.” “That's fine," Scott said, teasingly, “and suppose I'll be allowed to keep professional secrets.” He grinned. “He’s got something up his sleeve,” Dana decided with unerring intuition. “11l drive you home before I dash' for the office,” Scott said. To Dana's surprise, the car’s nose was pointed in a direction exactly opposite to that which would lead to Scott's old-fashioned cottage. • “Where are we going?” “Wives shouldn't ask questions?" Presently they drew up in front of a large brick building, fronting a busy thoroughfare. Thv went inside, caught the elevator, and got out on the fifth floor. Scott sliped a key in a door and flung it wide: ("Welcome home. Mrs. Stanley. Dana caught her breath sharply. Her bewildered eyea met Scott's smiling ones. “Home? Why Scott!” “Sit down and take it easy.”

“I'll have to. I'm weak from amazement,” Dana said. a a a HER eves had taken it all in, in j that first, quick glance. It was one of those efficiency type apart- j ments. Behind the paneling would be a roll-away bed. Back of the door would be a small, gloomy, boxhke kitchen. There was an enameled breakfasts set in the alcove. The furniture was upholstered in a duil mulberry shade. Obviously the woodwork and floors had been recently “done over.” Everything looked shiny and new. Scott said. “I found I could rent the old house for enough to take this apartment. It was about an even exchange. I rather liked the old house, but it isn’t very convenient. And. after all. you're the one who'll be spending most of the lime at home.” So Scott had rented that darling oid house with its mellow, ivory paneling and lovely old things for this—this place! Because of the eicctric ice box, hecaustj it would he warm this winter and easy to keep. So much easier than the rambling, picturesque cottage. He’d given up his home to make her comfortable. Dana, her head against his shoulder, whispered: “It was dear of you to think of it—it’s going to be play to keep.” “That's what I thought,” Scott agreed contentedly. “It has all the ■ conveniences. Hot water every minute. Electric ice box. Three exposures.” “How long is the lease?” Dana 1 asked. “Fc r a year.” A year would pass before she knew it. she wouldn't begin by letting material things matter. It was the spirit of it that counted. Scott's thinking of her before himself. Wanting to place her. So awfully proud of himself for being able to present her with this brand newlooking and convenient apartment. “It’s a darling place,” Dana said, and somehow meant it. Her arms went, around Scott. They kissed. When Scott kissed her like that, what did anything matter! (To Be Continued) Making Fruit Cake Romantic Holiday Chore Many a bride, ambitious to make her first brandy fruit cake for Christmas, goes fuming in her kitchenette these days, wondering if she is putting in just the right amount of everything. Since making a fruit cake is a romantic chore, there always will be women of all ages who will insist upon making their own, just as they want to make their own plum pudding, regardless of how good these things may be in the stores. This recipe, a simple enough one and not too expensive, is from SchrafTt's. Brandy Fruit Cake One pound each of butter, brown sugar and flour, nine eggs, two teaspoons each of cinnamon and mace, one teaspoon soda, two pounds seeded raisins, three pounds currants, one-half pound each pecans, lemon peel, orange peel and citron, one-quarter cup brandy. Cream the butter, add the sugar and beat well. Beat eggs whole, then beat them into the butter and sugar until light. Add other ingredients. Bake in buttered and floured pans four hours in a slow oven. Slow baking is important for fruit cake. L UNCHEON IS HELD BY KORAN TEMPLE Mrs. Alma Schoenholtz, 240 S.

Handsome Wrappings Heighten Thrill of Gifts

Perhaps you won't have anew pup to wrap up for your children, but “Rags,” bursting from his box, attracted a lot of attention to the importance of wrappings at the Chicago Merchandise Mart's packaging exhibit The artistic effects shown at right can be achieved at home by following directions included in the accompanying article.

BY MARY MARGARET M BRIDE TT'OR quite a while we've been ensembbng everything in the home from costumes to kitchens, and now it turns out we can also ensemble our Christmas packaging. That is, if you have to wrap in a hurry this year you can dash out and buy matched papers, gummy stickers, labels and ribbon ties all done up together in a neat roll by the thoughtful manufacturer. The well-wrapped Christmas bundle will more than likely be wearing metallic paper this year. Red is the favorite color for 1935, with green a close second. Brown and gold plaided effects and coral and French blue are two smart combinations. Blue alone or blue with silver is less popular than formerly because it. has been rather overdone. There is a lovely semi-transpar-ent paper in crepe-like finish with candles in gold coral and blue that wduld wrap a de luxe gift to perfection, and there are Santa Claus and snow men motifs galore. tt n tt MANY deft-fingered gift-givers like to make their own designs. For these there is plain paper of shimmering softness and contrasting colors. The ingenious may cut out silver stars and paste them on blue grounds, scissor green Christmas trees that have more than a hint of the modernistic, and form words and tunes with grace notes. The average package ought to be disguised as much as possible in order to prolong the pleasure of opening by a little suspense. But some unwielay gifts are better treated without camouflage. For instance, while you can get a dog’s legs into a box, you might have trouble with his head, so the best way is to let his head stick out the top. A teddy bear for Johnny can be dressed up in a transparent red bag with fluffy ruff out of which pokes his head. Plum puddings, jams and jellies may be done in icy blue transparent paper for the grapes and raspberry, pink or white for the strawberries, peaches and pears. Ties are stronger than they used to be and practically guaranteed not to break just when you get the knot pulled tight. They come in triple stripe effect in satin finish, featuring broad central stripes of color with side pieces of gold or silver. Many tags are in booklet form with blank inside page to permit 'individually written messages. Some are photographic prints of winter scenes, others suggest Old English illuminated parchment. Seals are mostly metallic with

Christmas trees, candles, holly, stars and one gold plaque of Madonna and child. tt a THERE are some particularly clever gift ideas for inclosing money, always the season's most welcome gift. One folder has the ace, king and queen hearts on the outside and the jack of course inside. There also is a colored mammy who carries a basket that is sliL for the introduction of a folded bill, and a genial Santa Claus with money in his bag. To wrap the cookie packages illustrated, stack the cookies, incase in white cardboard or heavy white paper. Cut a piece of light green collophane large enough to cover the package crush it completely in your hand for novel “crystalcrinkle” effect. Open the sheet to its original size and apply it to package. Tie with darker green transparent ribbon (silver-edged is used in the illustration) and finish with sprig of holly and berries.

Tie on to package. u it a T]>OR a two-in-one gift of a home-baked fruit cake and a cake dish—use two-tone ribbon, silver with bright red edging, for tying. A bright red pointettia tops this appetizing gift package. To make the chef, all in white, on the gift of fudge, take wire pipe cleaners and bend to shape for the body, arms and legs. The costume is crepe paper cut to form coat, sleeves, trousers and cap. A green holly leaf and a shiny ribbon, silver with red edging, add the final holiday gift touch. To make a bow. after wrapping box in a. brilliant color, cut a piece of clear uncolored cellophane about 10 or 12 inches square. Fold it diagonally to form a triangle. Now fold each half of the sheet separately into

Wool challis print—navy with white pin dots—with the collar of white linen, is another effective scheme.

Childhood of Mother May, Show Cause of Attitude, Jordan Advises Daughter Her Viewpoint Toward Girl, Beau Is Warped, Jane Agrees; Suggests That Young Woman Try to Learn of Her Life. Tr II your troubles to Jane Jordan who will study your problems and answer rone questions in this rolumn. Dear Jane Jordan—ls there is anythin? that burns me up it is the mothers and fathers of us young people who are continually throwing it up to us that we owe them a life-long debt which we can never fully repay, just because they brought us into this world. It isn't our fault that we were bom, but my mother makes it a point to let me know that

I owe her everything. I have been going steady for almost a year and he has always treated me with the utmost respect. Dave is 18 and I am 17 and a senior in high school, but my mother is continually convicting me of some sort of indecency just because she saw him kiss me in a dimly lighted room. I can not feel that a kiss now r and then hurts a girl’s character. Why do our mothers try to disillusion a girl about a boy just because some girls have gotten themselves in trouble? I’ve always felt that anything as sweet as the courtship and love between man and woman should be held sacred and not dragged in the dust by these mothers who try to make a sin or a crime out of what could be beautiful and a sacred happening in a girl's life. I'd certainly appreciate the publication of this letter so that some of the mothers who feel that they have done their duty by

bringing us here can have our viewpoint on the matter. J. D. tt tt tt tt tt B Answer—ln order to understand your mother you would have to understand her mother. If you could turn back the clock and see into her girlhood, the explanation of her attitude would be there, and you no longer lvould feel harshly toward her for her unhappy viewpoint. To understand all is to forgive all. My guess is that her mother guarded her even more closely than she guards you and that all these ideas were ground into her when she was still so young that she accepted her parent's viewpoint as her own. People who hav* had over-strict parents react in one of two ways toward their children. Sometimes they over-compensate to their children for their own deprivations in order to enjoy vicariously what they missed in their youth. Sometimes they do what your mother has done and punish the children as they were punished. In some curious way such parents strive to get even with their children for the treatment they received when they were young. The children are obliged to suffer for grievances which actually are felt toward the grandparents. If you want to win your mother to your point of view, don't combat her poisonous opinions too much. Try to find out how she got that way. Encourage her to talk about her own girlhood and see if through your understanding and sympathy you can get her to air some of these early resentments which sne almost has forgotten. This won't be easy anil will require a great deal of kindness on your part, but if you succeed it will be worth your while. Remember, if she can get her own disappointments out of her system by talking to a sympathetic audience, she would not take out her frustrations on you. You have said nothing about your father. Remember that her attitude has something to do with him. Is he kind to her or does he leav her with unsatisfied yearnings and an unhappy feeling that all men are untrustworthy? What has life done to your mother? Don't despise her. Try to help her. I agree with you that her viewpoint is warped.
