EAR JANE JORDAN-—I took a baby to board when he was six months old and his mother paid his board for two months. Then she went away and I did not see her for a while. When the came back she took the baby and kept him about a week. I missed him s0 much that when she | brought him | back and asked | me to keep him | until she could | find work, I did. | From then on | she did not pay | me any more] and would not even come to see the baby unless I would look her up. When he was 6 years old she remarried. I asked! her if she wanted the boy. She | said no, but that she would help | me buy his clothes, which were very | few. When he was 8 years old, | she came and took him away and | does not want him to. see me any | more. The boy is so unhappy that he| runs away from her to come and | see me. He says he would rather g0 to a boys’ school than live with | his mother, and that I am the only mother he has known. I have moved three times but he always | finds me and says if I could only | keep him he would not run away | 88 he now does. He says his mother and stepfather go out at night an Jeave him home, and that they go | tures. away Sundays and stay all day, feroul be [yon over by the wide i or | flexible old racele wi i leaving him by himself.

regret may have the following form: Mr. and Mrs. Richard Hamilton regret extremely

at the wedding and reception of Mr. and Mrs. John Smith's daughter on Tuesday, the tenth of June. Courtesy requires that guests who are intimate friends of the family shall give an explanation of the reason for declining, which had better take the form of an informal note. For a small church wedding, a reply should be sent as soon as possible. These customs are the result of consideration, as it is frequently awkward not to know wether or not invited guests are coming.

of Those MOTHS

Regular Care Will Produce Skin Firmness

BY ALICIA HART NEA Service Staff Writer Skin that is cared for properly simply doesn’t become soft, flabby and badly wrinked as one grows older. Of course, you might as well face the fact that you will have a few lines and that your complexion will lose that bloom of 19-year-old youth as the years go on. However, this doesn’t mean that you ought to be philosophical about flabbiness. Regardless of your age, you really.can have firm skin. Don’t underestimate the importance of ice water and ice. Get into the habit of rinsing your face with ice water after each cleansing. Slap it on until your skin is positively cold. Once a week, after a cleansing, wrap pieces of ice in a clean cotton cloth and rub briskly from base of throat to hairline. Never put ice directly on your skin. Always wrap it in a cloth and then apply.

Lemon Juice Used as Bleach

Several motion picture stars use ice cold lemon juice.on their faces. They simply put the juice of two lemons in a bowl in the refrigerator and, when it is very cold, smooth it on. This serves as a amild bleach as well as an astringent. If your skin is dry, don’t apply an astringent oftener than twice a week. Even then it is a good idea to use tissue cream afterward. Almost every astringent has a tendency to be slightly drying. Facials, if given by an experienced professional operator, tend to prevent flabbiness. However, don't attempt any intricate slapping routines yourself, and don’t let any one experiment with the muscles of your face. The right kind of facial is excellent, but a mediocre one can do more harm than good.

of Pie Always in the Crust

Wise Is Woman Who Ac quires Knack of Mak- . ing Good Pastry.

BY RUTH CHAMBERS National Live Steck and Meat Board “If there's ice cream, it's a party,” small Johnny may declare., But if Jonnny’s dad is consulted as to his dessert preferences, nine chances out of ten hell say, “Let's have pie!” There's something” about pie which certainly makes a hit with the men. Fancy desserts may come and go—and it is fun to experiment with them. But wise is the woman who acquires the art of good piemaking. She will always be able to cap her dinners with a good dessert. Of course, as every true piefancier knows, the test of a pies worth is in its crust. Infinitely varied are the fillings — fruits, cooked and fresh; vegetables (pumpkin and squash); custards and creams; fillings baked with the pie crust and those which are put in afterward. Varied are the forms

latticed tops and those surmounted by a meringue. There are full-sized pies and smaller ones, and little individual ones.

Crust Most Important Factor

But for all their variety, one thing good pies have in common is a flaky, tender crust. Good pie-makers have learned by experience to rely upon lard. to obtain that ideal result. It isn’t hard to make good crusts with lard, for lard is pliable and workable over a wide range of temperature. It is never brittle even when taken directly from the refrigerator. In making a pie crust, the ingredients and the hands should be cool, and the mixture should be handled quickly and lightly. Left-over bits of pastry dough may be used to make little tarts or cheese sticks.

Apple Pie

4 to 6 tart apples 5% cup or more sugar 1-3 teaspoon cinnamon 1, teaspoon salt 1 teaspoon lemon juice 1 tablespoon butter “Slice the pared apples and arrange until the lower crust is well filled. Mix the sugar, salt and cinnamon and sprinkle over the apples. Dot the top with bits. of butter. Add lemon juice. If the apples are dry, add 2 or more tablespoons of water. If the apples are juicy, the top of the bottom crust may be sprinkled with a thin layer of flour. Add the top crust, fastening the edges of the crust well. Bake at 425 degrees F, for 15 minutes, then at 350 degrees F. for 20-30 minutes. Latticed Cherry Pie 3 cups pitted sour cherries 1 to 1% cups sugar 4 tablespoons flour Drain cherries.

Solution to Previous Problem BY WM. E. M’KENNEY

American Bridge League Secretary

ERE is another instructive hand

4 from my friend, Earl Bryan, of |

Cleveland. The problem in it is one of play, and the manner in which that problem was solved is most interesting. _ With many bridge players thera is an almost irresistible urge to draw trumps the moment they win their first trick. It's a sound general rule, but, like all sound rules,

} it has its exceptions.

For instance, had Mr. Bryan elected to draw trumps with the hand given today, he would have been short of tricks and, when counting up the number won, would have found that he had not fulfilled his contract. ‘There is no doubt that South bid enough on his hand, but his distribution made a strong appeal to him as compensation for some missing high cards. Opening lead of the club king was followed with the ‘queen, which South ruffed. Declarer then cashed the ace of diamonds, and ruffed two clubs in his own hand, and three diamonds in dummy.

The last ruff left him in dummy, which now held the ace, 10, eight and three of spades, and the queen of hearts. Declarer held the ace and 10 of hearts, the queen and seven of spades, and the diamond jack. He led the queen of hearts and won with the ace. Then he led his last heart and put West into the lead. West had to concede two spade stricks at the end. The hand was well played, but West's double of
