Built-In Shelves

A number of houses of the socalled Victorian era, as well as some of the ultra-midern version, have round turrets or towers. These circular walls are particularly adaptable to built-in shelves. While books may not fit so compactly, glass or a knick-knack oollection shows off to excellent advantage.

ERE'S the Big Gun in the sum- ; mer campaign for at least one hot dish at every dinner regardless of weather. You will be surprised how much better you will feel if you do have just a thin, hot soup before a cold salad dinner, it will give you more resistance to fight the heat, besides being better for the digestion. Just a touch of something hot even it it’s only hot tea or coffee makes a huge difference in your reaction to hot weather. This is something different and inexpensive by way of a main dish for a summer meal; a planked hamburg steak.

She asks her friend, Wenda Andrews, to break the news. to Marcia’s parents that the wedding is off. The tickets for the honeymoon trip to France are in Mareia’s purse. Im-. pulsively, she decides to sail alone. A young: man who is a stranger helps her get on ‘the ship just before the gangplank ‘is raised. Next day she meets him again.

OW with Bob—Bob hadn't wanted a home. Just-a house for parties. A house located some place where it was accessible to

people. “How will any one ever find us?” he had asked when she had first shown him the long, low clapboard house in Connecticut. “Honey, just because we are being married doesn’t mean that we are going into seclusion.” She had said nothing then about

She stood by the railing, watch-

ing the little boat go away into a

gay morning, advancing steadily among the fishing tugs with their

yellow. Phil was on that boat, and a girl named Camilla would meet him when he reached the low green coast. Odd, Marcia mused, that she didn’t know how Camilla looked. She hoped that the other girl wouldn’t bring her Austrian count to the boat. That would be unkind. ‘Almost, Marcia could see the narrowing of the blue eyes, the tightening of the muscles in a lean, tanned face. Phil would say little. He would be sanctuary to some woman—but he would love a woman, quite probably, who did not seek sanctuary. Life was that way.

she was disembarking, Marcia was beginning to feel excited. She went: hrough customs, chatted with fellow passengers on the boat train, went to Claridge’s, where rooms had been engaged by her father—and sat down. She was alone. She had not minded being alone a few months ago. That was before she had found Bob—before she had charted the rest of the way with him. Now she thought of him as she moved through the London she had loved as a sehoolgirl. ‘The guards changed. with the colorful pomp of old, at Buckingham Castle, and she stood in the sunshine and again in the rain, to watch them. The flowers were as deeply purple and red and‘ yellow in the gardens at Hampton Court. The cld guard who repeated again the tale of Elizabethan glory as he piloted her around Kenilworth Castle was as amusing as she had remembered. But she looked at London through schoolgirl eyes where she had expected to see it with the man she loved—and who loved her. In a week she took passage on a plane at the Imperial Airways and flew across the channel to Paris one warm afternoon in May. She went straight to the Continentale. The chestnut trees were blooming softly and there was music on the streets. Surely, surely things would. be different in Paris. There might even be a letter from Bob! Her heart raced when she thought of that. Yet he must despise her, now that she had failed him. He might forget that he had failed her first. s 2 2 HERE was no letter from Bob, though.

Drinking With Tobacco Use

But Jane Jordan Replies Warning Fails in Effectiveness.

In response fo many requests from readers, Jane Jordan's columns will now run on Saturdays. This will give more people the opportunity to have their letters answered. Write yours today.

In mute protest to a lenient view of smoking, one Teader has- inclosed a clipping which reads as follows: : “The drunkards of today are young men and young women, some of them only 15 ‘ years old. It used to be that children would go to the saloon door looking for their fathers. ‘Father, dear father, come home with me now,” was the old story. But now the fathers are out ‘looking for their children. ‘avery drunkard is a tobacco user. I do not say that every toe bacco user is a drunkard. Booze and tobacco are affectionate sisters, and if you marry the one, the other will come to live with you in your home. . . . We face a terrible situation in the great increase of cigaret smoking among women and girls. You mark my words, we will soon get multitudes of ‘ drunken women. Mighty few men or women finally beat this combination of cigarets and cocktails. It begins with the cigaret from the silver holder. It ends with the cigaret butt sniped from the gutter.”

Answer—This little excerpt is are resting. The enlightened can not but wonder what caused the author's preoccupation with the problem of evil. Such exaggerated statements do not carry conviction, but lead one to segrch for the source of the distortions. The reversal of the parent-child relationship found in the statement that the children have avenged themselves upon their drunken fathers by becoming drunks themselves, is easily recognizable as an infantile wish, but hardly the product of mature thinkThe downfall of women is another ancient concept no more ime minent today than it was 2000 years ago. : Have we not just come to wonder" whefher or not a person so bent upon forcing human nathre into rigid patterns of righteousness is not himself struggling with. an insistent feeling of fancied guilt? Is not his criticism of youth, and pérticularly of women, a method of projecting his own conflicts on to the persons of others where they are less personally devastating to condemn and punish? In scaring youth into good behavior we wonder whether it is’ not himself whom he seeks to scare. People who are not afraid of their own hidden natures do not feel compelled to spend their lives in admonishing others. Constant criticism of other people reveals the critic as one who secretly despises himself. Continuous warnings about the dangers of life, constant insinuaetions about the terrors of temptae tion can not be beneficial to youth, Such fearsome imagery easily leads the young to focus on this phase of life and provides a background for future disturbances. Fevered pictures of human beings pursued by internal and exe ternal demons give rise to anxiety; but it does not encourage calm and considered personalities or further the intelligent ordering of life
