Husband Is Sulky, Wife | Complains,
Jane Advises More Tact! In Dealing With Him.
Jane Jordan will help vou with veuwr | problems by her answers to your ques tions in this column,
EAR JANE JORDAN am 48 years old and my | hugband is 53. He is the stubbornest human being I ever]
met. He gets mad at any-| thing and sulks for days. I have] begged him to make up until I al-| most hate him, but I can't sit] around and not speak. I live in! back rooms, always the cheapest place he can rent. I have to sit | home all day with no one to talk to. He comes in at any hour of the | day from his job; so I don’t go out | very often. If I do, I hurry right back because I am afraid he will come home while I'm gone, | He said if he ever got rid of | me he wouldn't have another woman in the world. I asked him if he wanted me to leave and he said yes, but I didn’t have any place to go. I keep my rooms clean and have a good warm meal when he comes in. We are getting along worse all the time. He has a brother in another town who sends him money quite often, He came to see him two years ago and is coming again this | summer. I want to move and get some decent furniture, but every time I mention it he gets sore. I don't] want his brother to find us in this place with no more than we had | before. He got mad at his sister] and brother and did not write to] them for 10 years. Now he will | get drunk and spend all his money | and then borrow from them, I] have no home to go to and my | health is not good. Please can you tell me something I could do to get | along?
WAITING. | ANSWER—There nearly ] is some way to get along with a man who provides a living for his wife, even if it isn't a lavish living. | If he was a complete rotter he wouldn't come home at all or pay the rent on back rooms. Why do you suppose he stays with you if he would rather not have a woman | around? { Maybe it's his conscience that won't let him desert you. If so, that shows some sense of decency and it is something to build on. Maybe it's just habit that brings him home, but even so it indicates | that he needs a place to come to and someone to cook for him. Perhaps you aren't very clever | in the way you put your suggestions to move into a better place. No doubt you start by telling him how terrible your rooms are and how stingy he is. That puts his back up to start with. Why don’t you try telling him how much more comfortable he would be in a certain new chair, or how much better meals you could cook on a new stove, and so on. Don't press the first but just let it sink in. Somehow you must make the | move appear to his advantage by appealing to his pride or his desire for ease. I am not at all sure you're right | in breaking your neck always to be | home when he is. He would have! a right to complain if you weren't there at meal time, but certainly not because you were out at other | times. Give him a chance to niiss you. Besides you'll be a pleasanter | “*nanion if you have some change | in your life. None of these things are going to | work wonders. None of them will] make a stubborn man amenable | over night. As long as you live you | are going to have to put up with a certain amount of bull-headed- | ness, stinginess and selfishness. 1I| only think you can improve things | by putting more diversion in your | own life and by using more tactinl, methods with him. If you could get | out and work you could afford to |
tell him how mean you think he is, | but then there's your health. |

Although he had anticipated some stir among the alumnae he was surprised by the extent of the opposition, according to an interview with | the Holyoke Transcript-Telegram. “It has helped my scholarship,”
he said. “I have acquired a philosophical attitude.
to arouse opposition.” Dr. Ham, a strapping six-footer, said the dispute had not affected his admiration for 73-year-old President , Mary Emma Woolley, whom he is scheduled to succeed June 30. Miss Woolley has publicly expressed her disappointment over the election of a male president. He doubted that Mary Lyon, who 100 years ago next November founded Mount Holyoke Seminary, would approve the controversy. “Mary Lyon was not a feminist,” he said. “She was used to working with men.’

Refugee Children Learn Handicrafts in Clubhouse Classroonis.
Dear Teacher: Do you know how to crochet a beret? I just learned how at Municipal Gardens Woman's Depart- | ment Clubhouse, our temporary | home. It's fun, and maybe I can | teach you when we get back to | Jeffersonville. | My beret is bright red like the scarlet crayons we use at school. I haven't been to school since the flood, but I have learned a lot. I am learning how to knit on a spool today. Every day we have classes, but they don't call it school. We don't have to do arithmetic
We spend our time making things, like sweaters, caps and scarfs.

We don't mind but we are sorry for our friends who had to go to the hospital. They have scarlet fever and that's why we are in quarantine.
Almost every day we have folk dancing, and sometimes tap dancing. They call this our exercise, but it's just like play. Especially when I have Jimmie for my dancing partner,
You remember my blue jersey dress I used to wear to school? It's the dress I put on when the flood came and we had to leave. It is prettier now.

Solution to Previous Problem By W. E. M'KENNEY
American Bridge League Sccretary OLDING three cards of a suit to the ace, in no trump, it is generally accepted as good play to hold up the controlling card until the third round, on the theory that the partner of the leader will then be void of the suit. However, there are hands in which this course gains nothing, and might prove disastrous. South, when he saw the dummy and noted the distribution, had no fear for his contract. He had one club, four hearts and four diamonds, if both suits broke evenly. In addition, he held both ace and queen of spades. He could not take more than 11 tricks if everything broke, so he let East's queen hold the first trick. A club was returned, and declarer
longer to win the club trick, as the spade finesse, if taken, was into the hand of the player who had length in clubs. After winning the second club lead, South took three rounds of hearts and learned that he could win only three tricks in that suit. Next he tackled the diamond suit, to find that he had only three tricks there. Apparently there remained only the spade finesse to make nine tricks, but South found a much better play. He led the last club from dummy. West cashed his three remaining clubs, but was forced to lead a spade, which gave the declarer his contract. The throw-in play had won, where the finesse would have lost, and the play was possible only because a club had been saved for a final lead, (Copyright, 1937, NEA Service, Inc.)

Tasty Dish Is Urged for Cupid’s Day
Tomato and Cream Cheese Salad Recommended as Appropriate.
By MRS. GAYNOR MADDOX NEA Service Staff Writer Cupid, you may have noticed, is never thin. His affectionate little ribs are well padded and his beneve olent smile bespeaks plenty to eat, So on his feast day, Valentine, take a hint from this young god of the loving heart and serve a buffet supper with more to it than roe mantic hopes. After bridge or dancing or games, summon your guests to the feast of St. Valentine. Use a large table, card tables fastened together, or your buffet. Remember, the most intense love is always informal, so must your Valentine buffet be. Serve at least one hot dish, such as a clear chicken bouillon in cups, or if you are willing to spread a bit, try creamed chicken with Madeira prepared before the admiring eyes of your guests in your electric chaf= ing dish. Have crisp toast ready for the chicken. Then should follow an appropriate salad made in a hearte shaped mold, pink with the spirit of the day. Try this,
Tomato and Cream Cheese Salad
(14 servings) Two packages salad gelatin (aspic), 2 cups boiling water, 2 cups thick tomato puree, 1 tablee spoon finely minced onion, 1 table= spoon finely chopped parsley, 1 package cream cheese, 3!z cup cream, whipped.
Dissolve the salad gelatin in boil= Ing water. Add tomato puree. Pour half of this tomato-gelatin mixture into a heart-shaped mold which has been dipped first in cold water, Chill until firm. To the other half, add onion and parsley and chill until it begins to thicken. Mash cream cheese with the whipped cream and add to the thickened gelatin, stirring in until thoroughly mixed. Pour into :nold on top of plain tomato gelatin and chill until firm. This salad, served with minced chicken sandwiches and coffee, would constitute an adequate tidbit for Dan Cupid.
Frosting Is Important
Frosting seems to belong in the | list of important things for the Vale entine supper party. And wicked little golden arrows certainly have | the right idea. For a quick and accident proof white frosting for your favorite cake, use 2 tablespoons butter, 4 cup sweetened condensed milk, 1'a cups confectioner’s sugar and 'a teaspoon vanilla. It needs no cooking. Simply cream butter, add condensed milk and continue to cream thoroughly. Slow= ly add the confectioner’s sugar, sifte ed, and beat the frosting. Add the vanilla, and beat again until creamy and light in color. Maybe this is the stuff of Love's young dream.
The Golden
For tiny golden arrows, use 14 cup sifted confectioner’s sugar, 4 cup sweetened condensed milk, '4 teaspoon lemon or orange flavoring, and enough yellow coloring matter to tint the arrows an impressive gold. Blend the sugar gradually into the condensed milk, using a fork, Add flavoring and coloring matter, and continue to mix until smooth and creamy. Roll and pat into a sheet 3 inch thick. Make an arrow head of stiff paper and use this as a pattern to cut arrow heads from the candy with a small knife. Chill in refrigerator, Makes about 24 of those sweet little tributes to the power of Cupid.
