COOKING SCHOOL TO SOLVE HOUSEWIVES PROBLEMS
Cautions Girl Doubting Love for ‘Fi irst’ Boy
Must Compre Merits of | Others, Jane Jordan Tells Troubled One.
Jane Jordan will study your problems for you and answer your questions in this column.
PEAR JANE JORDAN—| Tell me what ‘to do. Al has been my steady boy friend | for almost two years. We|
love each other, but now I] have a doubt in my own mind in| regard to my own feelings. I went | visiting this summer and met B| of whom 1 grew | very fond. Since; I came home I have become en- | gaged to A. Then I received | a letter from B,| asking if he | could come to see | me. I answered | and told him that | I was engaged | now. Although I} am very fond of A I find myself | longing for B and wishing I could see him. I told A of my affair be- | fore we became engaged, but he | doesn't know how I feel now. absolutely refuses to let me see any | other boys. Do I love A? : IN DOUBT.
Jane Jordan
A |
ANSWER—I do not know. I know of no test, like a scratch on | the arm, which will inform you | whether your reaction to A is posi- | tive or negative. The average per- | son would hold that as long as a | * second person has the power to at- | tract you, you are not completely in love. Our sentimental education would have it that love is an] all consuming passion that -makes | us safely monogamous for the rest | of our lives, but it simply is not | true. Even the most satisfactory marriage does not preclude the possibility that an outsider may not at times prove desperately attractive. Smart people guard an important relationship by avoiding the unimportant excursions which endanger it. The task of maturity is to learn how to subordinate minor desires to major needs. Polygamous tendencies receive a socially acceptable outlet through mild flirtations and little conguests which result in a group of admiring friends. When a girl finds herself attracted to two boys she should base her decision on the character merits .of each. Which one has the _ highest - degree of co-operation? Which ons is the most adjustable and considerate? The trouble is that the young girl wants to believe that love is a sort of phosphorescent glow which only one person can arouse and she leans toward the boy who is most emotionally exciting, whereas he may not be the one who makes the best husband. _ Possibly you were unwise {o bind yourself to one boy before you had ample opportunity to compare him with others. Now sour decision rests with you alone. Even if I knew the two boys personally, which I do not, my decision between them might not suit you.

DEAR JANE JORDAN—I had
been living in the neighborhood less than a month when a lady a few
doors from me died. I didn't know her, had never spoken to her. I| contributed to a neighborhood bou- | guet but did not go in to see her or to attend the funeral. I have been | “griticised. Did I do right or wrong? WONDERING
ANSWER—Some neighbors expect too much. You made a nice gesture in contributing to the flowers, but since the sick woman was not an intimate friend I see no reason why
The mere fact that you live on the same street with other people . does not imply that they are con- ~ genial souls nor does it give them any claim on you. Well bred people would resent rather than wel-
come the intrusion of strangers in time of trouble.
JANE JORDAN.

Etiquette
By PATRICIA
HE WELL-DRESSED MAN— Semi-formal evening—at the theater, informal dinners at home, in hotels and restaurants and at informal dances and parties, a man may wear a single or double breasted black or midnight blue worsted dinner jacket, with peak or shawl collar of dull silk, and bone or silkcovered buttons, The trousers to match the coat have a single row of broad silk braid on each outer seam. The vest should be black or gray silk and may have ornamental buttons fo match studs and cuff links. Stiff bosomed shirts with two studs are worn with this costume, and wing, or fold-over collars. The tie should be a plain black striped silk bow. The same shoes, stockings and other accessories may be worn as with formal evening dress, except that a Homberg hat may take the place of a silk or opera hat, and a thin watch chain may be worn across the vest. College men wear camels’ hair coats of polo types with dinner jackets.
Notion Counters Carry Needs for Neat Appearance
BY ALICIA HART - NEA Service Staff Writer The woman who wants to be neat and well groomed every hour of the day shouldn't overlook the notion counters. Such little articles as flat garters that prevent wrinkles and bumpy spots across the front of smoothly fitted dresses, small bits of tape to hold shoulder straps in place, invisible hairpins and a score of similar items certainly are as important to her appearance as powders and creams. Crepe paper dress shields (to be
worn once, then thrown away) are i best sellers on notion counters right
now. Fabric (not rubber) shields to | {be worn between shoulder blades | keep new Fall and Winter dresses | | from showing perspiration stains |
| across the back. These are washable, of course, and come in all sizes. If vou wear a size 16 dress, simply ask for a 16 back shield. Scissors Tweezers Best
Eyebrow tweezers (the kinds which look like scissors seem to do the job most painlessly), emery boards (better for your nails than steel files), compact puffs (cheap enough so you can use several a week), nail brushes and tiny brushes for lashes and brows are worth consideration. When you make out your beauty budget, be sure to allow for dry cleaning, laundry and shoe repair bills. These certainly come under the heading of perfect grooming. You can’t look your best if your heels are slightly crocked, your dress even a-~little bit soiled or if collars and cuffs aren't spic and span. Watch your stockings. The appearance of the lovelist legs is spoiled if stocking seams are crooked. And the charm of an up-to-the-minute coiffure is wasted if the hat atop it is a trifle dusty. Get hat and shoe brushes from a notion counter and use them regularly. Lay in a supply of shoe trees. The initial cost is nothing when you stop to consider that shoes which are cared for properly always outwear neglected j Fes.
POPULAR REQUEST DANCE SCHEDULED

Family Gloom Cause Traced to Sober Face
Mother Learns Smile Can Bring Change for Better.
BY OLIVE ROBERTS BARTON
I noticed the family growing bluer by the day. It worried me because everybody seemed well; there was no imminent. catastrophe and
the meals were as usual. “What's the matter?” I asked one after the other. “Is anything wrong?” “Oh, no,” came the usual answer. “Everything's just fine.” The sun shone, the wind blew and the asters bloomed, yet the smiles in my household were certainly conspicuous by their absence. A pall rested over the place. In sheer desperation, I planned treats for this one and that.
Gave Presents
I bought a new lamp with a rose shade . I gave little presents. In short, I tried for weeks to jack up the morale of my husband and kids (they're not exactly kids now) and even my small grandson who came to visit. But his own little face soon became as sober as that of a judge. Then I gave up. I said one day, “You all look like calamity itself. What's wrong with this house?” And I proceeded to parade my virtues and how kind I was, and bark that all the thanks I got was a bunch of sad faces. Then one day I packed up and went on a visit. I visited my sister. She stood it for two days and then she said, “For heaven’s sake, Olive, smile once in a while. Look happy. Smile if you have to stretch your mouth out of place and “paste it there.” “What are you talking about?” I asked indignantly. “I'm as happy as a lark.” “Well, you don't sing like one,” she said. “I know you haven't been well, and feel dreadfully sometimes. But you've let your face down so thas I wonder how the family stands i J Faced Mirror—and Truth I went straight to my room and took stock of myself. True, I had been very miserable for a long time. But I wasn’t miserable now, except when I ate chocolate at bed time. And suddenly I laughed. I made faces in the mirror, and decided that if I had to look at my features, as the family had had to do for weeks on end, I should have exploded. Poor dears, how patient they had been! What I needed was a good shake. After awhile I went downstairs, grinning a ghastly grin. We had a lot of fun over my attempts at an engaging smirk, but when I returned home the family mobbed me. “Oh, mother, how much better and happier you fook. ” I felt neither better nor happier, but they did. And the effect on all of them was a permanent lesson to me. Remember it, mothers. have to, “paint” a smile on your face. If you don’t, you will have to do as I did, and gaze at gloom from morning to dark. (Copyright, 1936, NEA Service, Inc.)

Solution to Previous Problem BY WILLIAM E. M’KENNEY
American Bridge League Secretary EAM of four play at duplicate, to many, is the most absorbing form of duplicate bridge.
One reason is that it provides such direct and accurate opportunities for comparison of results, and thus sometimes a very drab and colorless deal becomes important when submitted to later analysis on the basis of results obtained. Generally, when a player goes down 900 points at a bid of one, he feels greatly concerned at the major disaster, whether the score is reckoned in total points or at board-a-match play; but there are always exceptions, and today’s hand is one that proves the rule. It was played in the national mixed team of four championship sponsored by the American Bridge League at Asbury Park, N. J, recently. In one case it produced the unique result: of a 900-point penalty for West at a contract to take seven tricks; but West's team-
mates redeemed the situation by '|

bidding and making six clubs, and thus winning the match by 20 points. West had intended merely to interrupt the North and South pairs in reaching a good contract, knowing that the hand could not play at diamonds; but North took immediate action, and in the play West won two tricks. However, at the other table, where West's teammates were completing the match against another team, history was being written. There South had opened the biddings with one diamond, West had passed, North had bid one spade, South two clubs, and eventually a small slam in clubs was reached and made. Value of the slam was 920 points, so the seemingly bad bid of one spade had proved profitable, It was a lucky result, as the bad gvereall should have brought disaster

Timely Tips in Kitchen Work
to Be Of fered
Favorite Dishes of U. 8S. to Be Described Tomorrow.
How. can a stew be more than 8 stew? How can a cheap cut of meat be company fare? How can a meal be prepared on a moment's notice? These are daily problems which housewives would like to have solved for them, and these are but three of the many points which Miss Ruth Chambers is to bring fo Ine
of The Indianapolis Times’ {ree cooking school to open at 9:30 a. m, tomorrow at English's Theater. Classes of the “Foods of the Nae tion” cooking school are to be held at 9:30 a. m. Wednesday and Thurs day and are to conclude with a lece ture and demonstration at 8 p. m. Thursday. Miss ‘Chambers is a member of the National Live Stock and Meat Board, an educational and research organization in close touch with universities and colleges, experimental and research laboratories.
Meat Cutis Feature
She has given special considera« tion to the’ problems of meat cooke ery. Especially helpful are her suge gestions about the selection of meat cuts, that stumbling block for so many housewives. All cuts of meat can be made fender and delicious by the proper cooking methods, she believes. She suggests attractive ways of serving the dishes, and shows what to se with them to make a well balanced meal. Seventy-seven different dishes are tc be prepared in the course of the four sessions and printed recipes are given for all of them, Each day's recipe sheet is different. All the recipes have been tested by Miss Chambers, and each is to be explained in detail, to enable the homemaker to duplicate in her own kitchen every dish she has seen demonstrated at the school. A pa=rade of foods is to be held at the conclusion of each lecture. The school is divided into four sessions. The first day’s program entitled, “From Coast to Coast in a Day,” . includes recipes of favorite dishes from all sections of the coun= try and methods of quick and easy preparation. The second session is to be on “Streamlined Menus,” when special attention is to be paid to those who wish a safe reducing system. Miss Chambers also is to give a demon= stration of the proper way to carve various meat cuts.
Budget Tips Promised
“Balancing the Budget” is the third day’s subject. Miss Chambers is to give a lesson on helpful thrift suggestions, such as ways of cooking economy cuts of meat to bring out all their flavor and ideas for serving left-overs meats and vegetables. At the concluding lecture Thurse day night, hostess problems on “Ene tertaining at Home” are to be solved, The recipes are neither elaborate nor expensive, economy is stressed at each lecture, yet the items have “appetite appeal” as is indicated by such names: “Bridget’s short rib crown,” “Armenian Gaveg,” apricot meringue pie, date chews, crazy cake, It will be Miss Chambers’ fifth year to conduct the local school.
