Jare Jordan, who will he'p you with them by her replies in this column,

PEAR JANE JORDAN— My 18-year-old daughter is!

‘a truthful girl, but I have a

problem with her I can’t solve. |

' She has been going with a boy IT though very nice, but another boy came along whom I didn't like. I told her I didn’t like his past, as he has been in quite a bit of trouble. | I brought it all up to remind her, but she says it isn't the past but the future. | She : has been meeting him out for three weeks: I told’ her ‘finally to bring him to the house, _ He is a good worker and has a fairlv good job. She seems to think lots of him and he jealous of her. What would vou do? : WORRIED MOTHER. ANSWER—I think it wise of you to allow your daughter to see the young man at her own home. Your objections only give him the glamour of the forbidden. I do not] biame you for alarm if his record is | bad. The girl is only partly right | when she says that it is the future, | not the past, which counts, for the | future is irrevocably influenced by | the past. If the young man has found his first mistakes painful enough ‘to make him avoid them in the future, then he is to be commended. But if he has a habit of repealing | his mistakes, he will prove to be a poor friend. If you are open-minded about him and perfectly just and unprejudiced in your judgment; you will win your | daughter's confidence and be able | to influence her. | A girl is often so bent upon break- | ing the ties of her family that when | her mother sides with a boy she sus- | pects the two of trying to control | her and feels more - independent | when she forms friendships of which | her mother disapproves. | 3 2 un ” | DEAR JANE JORDAN—I have gone with a boy for almost a year and I thought I loved him. I felt aBnost sure of it until the other night my girl friend wanted me to have a date with another boy. I did and enjoyed myself immensely. He asked for another date but my | steady boy friend found it out and says if I go out with the other boy again he will’not come back. Please give me some good advice. I want my steady boy friend to come back | but still want to have at least one | more date with the other boy. CRAWFORDSVILLE READER.

Jane Jordan

ANSWER—You are too young | to confine yourself to one boy. It gives you no opportunity te meet others and it is the task of youth to mingle with as | + many of its contemporaries as | possible. A very clever young | lady could have other .dates without offending her special | boy friend. She could persuade him to cultivate other girl friends himself. Any intelligent young man can | see the wisdom of making a wider | circle of friends in order to have a | better chance to sgmpare one girl | with nother. If, after the comparison made, vou still prefer | each| other, your friendship will be | stronger than ever. JANE JORDAN, |

{Mural Decorations, Dressing "Table Arrangements : Make Present-Day Bathroom a Place of Beauty

THE INDIANAPO

BY MARJORIE BINFORD WOODS Times Fashion Editor Modern bathrooms are presenting new vistas. Unique mural decorations, dainty dressing table arrangements, and structural glass walls are all part of a scheme to dress up these gleaming chromium and porcelain

rooms.

There's not a room in the house which offers more opportunity for real honest-to-goodness elegance in exquisite color effects and smart accoutrements, and one doesn’t have to have the income of a successful movie actress to achieve such an effect, either.

The dressing - table above (left) is an example of modernism in an all-over mirrored dressing table. It is sectional and may be purchased as the purse dictates. The center

section comprises an oval-mirrored |

vanity with effective indirect lights on either side, and three spacious drawers in the front. Drawer handles are made of dull satin chrome and the matching dressing table bench is of mirrors with pyralin top. The two side sections fit alongside the dressing table and offer adequate drawer space with a ham-per-drawer in the left-hand section, for laundry convenience.

\ ‘Walls of glistening white struc-

tural glass with black trimmings give the room a sense of spaciousness, airiness and light.

Made of glass, mechanically ground and polished, they have a reflective beauty that tile walls can not touch. A delicate peach colored |silk moire = shower curtain with fluffy matching Turkish bath mat and towels enhance the black-and-white decorative plan. One of the luxuries of leisurely bathing is exemplified in the makeup box of chromium which fits over the edges of the tub. A magnifying mirror, container for cigarets, soap, cold cream and the like, are all amenities: to convenience. The deep sea scene of black Carrara glass built in, above the tub, is a striking example of an interesting effect possible. in modern bath-

room decoration.

However, even this trump holding does not guarantee the defeat of a contract, as a player in a recent sectional tournament learned to his cost. The trouble was that the defending player lacked taking tricks outside the trump suit, and the long array of trumps in one hand were” just good for discarding in the play of the hand.

and the spade discarded from the

| North hand.

Then the ace and king of spades were cashed and a small spade led from dummy and ruffed with ‘the queen. ‘East discarded a diamond. North now led the diamond queen and West won. At this point North held three small diamonds, and ace and five of trump, East held nothing but five trumps, and the South hand contained one spade, two clubs and the king and eight of hearts. West returned the high spade, North ruffed with the ace, .and East’ underruffed with the three. North now led the diamond eight. East was forced to ruff with the nine to keep the eight in dummy from winning. A club was discarded from dummy. Now two more trump tricks are assured to South; these, with the five tricks in spades and clubs, gave North his contract. Length in trumps alone, while desirable, does not assure the defeat of a game contract: A winning card in a side suit might have turned the trick even with one trump less.

Quietness Not Always a Good

Nice Is Inadequate, Writer Says.

BY OLIVE ROBERTS BARTON

Omen in Child f

Mere Impression of Being|

Mother Goose knew her children. Sometimes she rimed about little girls, but most of her protagouists are boys. In nearly all of the rimes, however, one character-trait stands out. ; Take Jack Horner, for instance. He sat in a corner with his back to the world, eating pie with his

thumb. - Then he sang over shoulder, “What a good boy am 1.” Because he was quiet and not bothering any one, the fatuous little prig thought he was to be admired.

We can read any number of lessons into Jack's actions, but let's not go too deep. Just say that the little rascal was doing what he wanted in the way he wanted, but, because he was out of every one’s way, he thought he was being good.

cleared off to work his mischief and | never got underfoot. Many parents, for some reason or other, want their children to give an impression af being good, without troubling tdfdiscover what may lie underneath. A thousand things boil and moil in every child. He is going to be himself, be sure, under some conditions, somewhere. If he can not be natural under his mother’s nose for any length of time, he is going to be doubly natural in school or in his playmate's yard. Culture Comes Naturally

The secret of good behavior, and good manners, is fo make decency natural. It can not be done suc-

like butter into beaten biscuit, but by the whole home environment and the example of the family. Culture becomes second nature to the child in the cultured family. But underneath must be :a perfectly genuine fineness of character and kindness. I wonder if Jack's parents were with him very much, Whether

That he was anti-social and vulgar from being left to the wrong kind of a nurse, or just any one who answered an “ad,” and. could keep a kid quiet. :

Watch Child in Home

Keep the child home enough to know what he is. Keep an eye on him to know what he is thinking and doing. Don’t take it for granted that quietness is = goodness. See that he does not. develop craft. And, above all, don’t let him turn into a Pharisee crying his holiness from a corner, or a Jack Horner, either, ‘The genuine child is artless. Sometimes difficult and sometimes not. Give him to me, either way. I like him. I don’t-want any veneer; or pose of rectitude. Gold, silver, copper or fin, I want his label. Alloys are all right, but not parading under false trade-marks. Maybe Jack even stole his pie from Tiny Tim next door. Yet, because he

Dishe Suggested in Various Ways

{| New Recipes’ Offered to

Break Monotony in Servings,

By NEA Service If, as argued, there are a thousand ways of preparing eggs, there must be at least half that many methods of cooking potatoes. Boiled, mashed and baked potatoes appear over and over on menus and really it's a pity because there are so many other ways of serving them.

the special little scoop made for preparing balls. Use the largest potatoes and cut unifornr balls. Drop

‘| them into cold water as soon as they

are made.

Allow about 8 to 10 balls per person. : Boil 15 minutes, until tender but not ‘broken. Pldce them on a large, welle greased baking tin. Pour melted butter to which chopped parsley, salt and pepper have been added over them and let them brown under the broiler flame until ready. Turn them frequently so they will brown evenly. :

Potato Pancakes

With any meat that has a hice gravy, potato pancakes are delicious, | prepared as follows: / Grate four large potatoes and place the pulp in a sieve to drain off excess water. When they are quite dry add the yolks of three eggs, one tablespoon of flour, a dash of ground nutes and one-fourth teaspoon salt. - Mold this mixture into small flat pancakes and fry them in fat (bacon fat is perfect) just long enough to brown well. One large potato will make two pancakes. Another favorite potato recipe is Long Branch Potatoes. This method is excellent if the meat course has no gravy as these potatoes are moist,

Recipe for Four

Six large, cold boiled potatoes, two tablespoons butter, one-half teaspoon salt, one teaspoon chopped parsley, one-half cup thin cream, one-quarter cup onion chopped, oneeight teaspoon pepper. Cut the cold, boiled potatoes very ine as you would chop them for hash. . | Fry the chopped onions in butter or fat until they are golden brown. Place the chopped potatoes in a saucepan, add the cream, and cook very slowly until all the cream is absorbed. Top milk will do for this purpose. “You will find that it takes only a few minutes to absorb the cream. Then add the two tablespoons of butter, salt, pepper and chopped parsley. Transfer the potatoes to a flat baking dish, spread the onions on top and then brown the dish under the broiler flame. Serve directly from the baking dish.

each and then cut down the portion to conform with the number of calories you intend to have per day while on the diet. 3 Starchy, sweet foods are rich in calories. If you include many of ‘these, in no time at all you will use up the calories you have allotted yourself and will still be hungry. It is better to eat bulky, low-caloried foods during the dieting period. For instance, 1 rol], 1 thick slice of bread, 4 crackers, 11% eups of dry cereal, 2 small cookies and 4 piece of pie contain 100 calories each. If you have ‘limited yourself to 1600 calories per day (a good figure for reducers to remember), and you go ahead and eat two pieces of bread and one of pie, you have used up 300 calories and will probably still be hungry. On the other hand, if you eat 1 broiled lamb chop (100 calories), 2 ears of green corn (100 calories).and 2 large tomatoes (100 calorie, ), you will be within the#00 mark dnd will also have had a satisfactory meal.
