r pAGEE Break Apron Strings, Girl Told by Jane

Mild but Firm ‘Revolt Necessary, Miss Jordan Declares.

Put your problems before Jane Jordan who will help you with them by her answers in this column,

EAR JANE JORDAN— I am a young girl of 18. 1 go with a boy 19. We both love each other and want to get married some day. My

mother will not let me do anything without asking her. I cannot go out of the house without telling

her why, and I have to be in on |

date night at 11 o'clock except when going to a dance or a party; then I can stay out as late as I want to. I will soon be going to work and I want you to tell me just what to do. I want to go out and have a good time like my girl friends who are younger than I, but how can a person have a good time when she has ‘ to ask every time she wants to go out? I cannot go to the show on Sunday afternoon or during the week unless I fight to go. I have a very nice home. I love my parents. Don’t you think that a girl of 18 knows what she wants to do? I want to go and come when I want to. I am not a wild girl, but I would like to have some fun out of life while I am young. LUCILLE. ANSWER—There is a very excellent article in one of the current magazines which would be good for both you and your mother to read. It is called “The Silver Discord” and appears in the February issue of “Mademoiselle.” Sometimes an impartial article containing a clear statement of the case which is fair ta-both sides, serves as a great eyeopener to its readers. In your place I should certainly request my mother to read “The Silver Discord” and discuss it with me, Mothers often have been accused of loving their sons the best, but the fact remains that their daughters are frequently the goats. "It is universally accepted that the males must go out in the world to earn a living and they are granted more freedom than girls. Often the mother forms a close self-identification with the daughter, so close that everything the daughter does affects the mother as ~ if she herself were the actor instead of the daughter. So determined is she that the daughter shall live up to her own personality ideal that she is afraid to let the girl out of her sight for fear that external influences will work some unwelcome character change. For the same. reason daughters are more critical of their mothers than their fathers. No matter how crude father is, he is allowed to. have his own personality and friends can take it or leave it; but a girl is keenly sensitive to the reaction of her associates to her mother because of her own identification with the lady. Mother must dress to suit daughter and conduct herself in a way that causes daughter no embarrassment. The old phrase “like mother, like daughter” has enough truth in it to make each nervous about the other’s behavior. I believe you have a just complaint. If you were left alone, perhaps you wouldn’t choose any more freedom than you have. It is|simply that you object to being treated as a child. After you begin earning your way you can stage a mild but firm revolt against parental domination. A restricted life is a bad preparation for living with others. If You were allowed to make your own decisions with the sympathy of your mother, whose counsel ‘is available when you need it, you are lucky. If the break from the apron strings must be made over the mother’s dead body, you are unlucky, but it must be made just the same. JANE JORDAN.

Schricker Says Laws Cannot Bring Safety

Public safety is a matter of education and will of the people and can’t all be done by law, according to Lieut. Gov. Henry Schricker. Mr. Schricker addressed a meeting of the Seventh District Federation of Clubs yesterday at the Claypoot Hotel. “One of the greatest dangers today is ourselves,” he said, advocating adult education. The speaker attacked the reckless disregard for laws. “We can have laws, but what can be done if people insist on breaking them?” he said.

Indianapolis Dances to Help Tommy and Betty Play Again

By MARJORIE BINFORD WOODS

The joys of the old swimmin’ laole are nothing to little Tommy, who can’t walk. You see, Tommy has his own private pool. It's the physiotherapy pool at Riley Hospital.

It’s all a lark for Tommy, being taken by electric carrier to the warm waters for daily exercise and treatment. Moreover, it might mean that Tommy will walk again some day. “Maybe next year I can swim,” he said brightly as he demonstrated how he could lift his paralyzed leg above the board on which he plays in the wtaer.

Many Will Benefit

Tommy is only one of hundreds of crippled children who will be benefited by new equipment to be purchased by Riley and City Hospitals, from their share of the proceeds of

the President's birthday dances Jan. 30. : The bright spot of little Leo's day comes when he lies on his back in the occupational therapy ward and weaves bright red threads into a leash for his pet dog. - “It’s almost half finished,” he announced, joyously, as he shuttled the yarn back and forth in a voluntary motion that has been prescribed to help develop dormant muscles. : Betty, too, reflects the ward's cheerful spirit. She adored the two Shirley Temple dolls that Santa brought her. She couldn't play with both of them at the same time, so one went to her little sister.

Recovery Cause for Cheers

Each new development in the use of legs and arms calls for a jubilee among the children who rejoice as much over their companion’s health improvement as over their own. General chairmen for the birthday balls visited the children yesterday after luncheon in the hospital. They © discovered among the youngsters a passionate ardor for President Roosevelt. His success-

Home Ideals Must Guide Young Pupils

Training Should Counteract Bad Influence of Some Classmates.

By OLIVE ROBERTS BARTON

Recently a mother complained that her child was learning bad habits at school. After visiting the room, she decided to take the little girl out and send her to a private school. “Because,” said she, “I never saw such a mixture of unkempt looking children.” It was her affair, and I made no comment; but I have been thinking it over. Influence outside the home is bound to have some effect on young life, and the cultured parent will be very resentful when she hears her daughter, who has never heard a rude word spoken in the family, yell to someone to “Shut your mouth” or “I'll slap you down if you say that.”

Stick to Rules

But here is the other side. 1I went to public school, and can well remember some of the rooms I was in. All the bad boys and girls in town, I think, were in it. And some of the things I heard were unprintable. What did I do? Well, I shivered and hated it. But it never occurred to me to take part or repeat it.

Home Example Needed

I know there is a difference. That extremes may disgust the child, and the influence can be more slowly pernicious, when there is Just enough of it. However, I am sure that home example cannot be shelved if right rules. are observed. There are thousands of excellent schools, but there are also numbers of them that outwardly cater to culture and at the same time, innocently enough, perhaps, create an inferiority complex in some of their pupils. This is because the private circumstances of the various families represented are known to the rest of the school. It is a problem, I'll admit. But in public school, there are bound to be times when the parent gets discouraged when the child seems to be slipping into bad habits of thinking There is little to do but to show him, or her, that he must stick to home tenets and home standards. a

Back-to-Nature Party for Jaded New York Elite

By United Press NEW YORK, Jan. 16.—Elsa Maxwell will give a big party at the Waldorf-Astoria tonight, and you must have hay in your hair and climb a stile to get in. It will be a “barnyard” party, Miss Maxwell announced triumphantly and there will be live cows, sheep, chickens and a small” donkey. The high spots of the evening will be cow-milking and hog-calling contests. “I'll judge the milking contest,” Miss Maxwell said modestly, ‘“because I'm just an old farm girl myself. Theyre blue-blooded cows from John Hay Whitney's farm. Only women will milk.” A greased pig contest has been arranged for males. The pig will be greased by Oscar, the Waldorf’s Maitre-d’Hotel. She said the reason for the party was to take society “back to na-

“ture.”

“Society is too sophisticated,” she said.

dummy, and East played the queen. Declarer now was in position to finesse spades and diamonds, both finesses working. Three rounds of trumps were taken and diamonds finessed twice. South, to avoid the lead of the king of hearts, returned a club, which East won with the king. A club was returned, West won, and led the jack of hearts. Now South could not avoid loss of two heart tricks. The contract was defeated because East did not hoard to his club honors on the first lead of the land. : (Copyright, 1937, NEA Service, Inc.)

Season Here For Cooking Green Goose

Recipes for Roasting and Stuffing Tasty * Fowl Offered.

By NEA Service Julius Caesar liked his victuals. While engaged in conquest, he took time off to note in his diary, “The '§ Britons keep geese for their delight | and pleasure.” Pleasure is right, And this being green, goose season (green means young, about four months old), they consequently are more tender. A green goose will weigh between eight and 12 pounds. To prepare for roasting, singe, wipe carefully, both inside and out, with hot water, and salt generously. It is then § “high” To make it just a little | higher, flatten the protruding breast - bone with some blunt instrument, stuff and truss. Place in very hot

When the flour has browned, baste with clear beef stock (canned, fresh or made with bouillon cubes and boiling water). Baste frequently, and after each basting dredge again - with flour. The flour absorbs exe cess fat. Total time for roasting, from beginning to end, should be the number of pounds multiplied by 20 minutes.
