Complain of Difficulty Of Making Friends Here

Girls Told They Must Seem Interested to Attract Boys; Jane Boosts Hobbies as Means of Contact.

The young man from Louisville really started something when he complained that it was hard to get acquainted in Indianapolis. There seems to be no end to the letters from young people verifying his experience. ” zs o ” ” 2

EAR JANE JORDAN—I, too, am a newcomer to Indian- . apolis and have found it very hard to make friends. I came here nine months ago to attend business college. 1 made several friends there who were exceptionally friendly during school hours, but that ended it. Now I work in an .office and the young men I meet in a business way are very nice but hesitate to ask for a date. ? I wish boys today were like men in our grandparents’ time. They used their heads to conjure up all sorts of ways to win their fair ladies. Men of today are such sissies that they are afraid to ask for dates for fear they will be turned down.. I have found the boys to be very chilling, so I can’t understand why the boys insist that it is entirely the women who are cold and aloof. LEE LEE. DEAR JANE JORDAN-—Last summer several other girls and myself started working in Indianapolis after leaving college. Perhaps we aren't as attractive as movie stars, but we were reasonably popular sorority

girls at college. It is not that we meet young men who don’t ask us for dates. We just don’t come in contact with them at all.

Somehow people in Indianapolis are their own keepers. As for the young men where we work, they don’t go to much trouble to get acquainted.

I think it is up to the women to be friendly but men must not forget that most well-bred women expect them to arrange for an introduction. They wouldn't respect us if we seem overinterested. — : INTERESTED ONLOOXKER. a a nn DEAR JANE JORDAN-—This is a young Hoosier's answer to the “furriners’ who find our hospitality lacking. It has been my experience that it is next to impossible to break into the inner circle of a group of friends in Indianapolis. My crowd is all connected by school, graduation or marriage ties and has changed but little since childhood. Not that we are surly or rude to strangers, but we just don't loosen up and tell our life's history to any and all comers.

I have traveled in 19 states and personally do not care for the indiscriminate mixing practiced in some, Kentucky, for example. I am satisfied with a closed shop. R.T.

ANSWER—I have room only for one comment. “They (the young men) wouldn't respect us if we seem overinterested.” I question this statement. An interested girl is always interesting. No man ever drew back from a woman genuinely interested in himself. On the contrary it attracts him. Nothing is more charming in life than to meet up with a person who actually appreciates us, who shares our good opinion " of ourselves.

Girls have been warned against chasing boys until they are miserably self-conscious and afraid to be natural. It is true that a pushing, overanxious girl, bent merely on catching a beau, defeats her own ends. But that doesn’t mean she can't be interested... The trick is to have enough interests in life to find a point of contact with many people. It is a joy to meet another who loves our loves and hates our hates, who shares our prejudices or gives us a new point of view about them. The girl with many interests is always respected.. The girl with just one interest—catching a man—has nothing #0 catch him, with. This is why 1 am an advocate of hobbies. Bock lovers are attracted to other book lovers. Musicians are accepted by other musicians. Stamp collectors find each other in the far corners of the earth. In every city there are clubs devoted to the hobbies of people. There are clubs for bridge, knitting, photography, discussion, study, stamps, nature, art, hiking, swimming, tennis, riding and so on ad infinitum, To do one thing and do it well is to carve out a little niche in life which “makes one interesting to others.

Today's Contract Problem

South is playing a contract: of six hearts. He wins the second trick with a trump in his own hand. Should he rely on a diamond finesse to give him the needed twelfth trick, and draw three rounds of trump immediately? MK?2 YK10865 9753 S96

Solution to Previous Problem By WILLIAM E. M'KENNEY

American Bridge League Secretary RIDGE players are apt to be dazzled by opportunities to discard losers in one hand -on winners

in the other, as Frank K. Perkins, of Boston, pointed out in discussing a slam contract played in a recent national tournament. But before hastening to discard, the good player stops and asks himself whether the discards will serve| any useful purpose. | In the vast majority of hands, the simplest line of play is the best, and today the simplest play is the cross

ruff. If that should fail, then the

question of discarding losers on dummy's high cards’ can be considered. | South could not read the opening lead as a singleton, although it was obviously a short] suit lead. He could draw trumps and discard two diamonds, but he would still be left with two losing diamonds. After winning the opening trick with the ace, the declarer who made his contract laid down the ace and another diamond, East overtook West's queen with his king, as he knew that the opening lead was a singleton. With eight diamonds played on the first two tricks, South had no further worries. He ruffed East's spade return with a high trump, then led another diamond and ruffed in dummy, He returned to his own hand with a trump, led the fourth diamond, and again trumped in dummy. Now his last diamond was established, the trumps were drawn, and the contract fulfilled. By playing the hand in the simplest manner, South did not have

Cake Has 22 Ingredients

Coronation Recipe Is Complicated.

By MRS. GAYNOR MADDOX : NEA Service Staff Writer If you like to celebrate international good will, if you enjoy making cakes that are shockingly Handsome, then try this specially created recipe. It will make an excellent wedding cake, too, and will keep well. Of course, the little king and his royal consort who stand so imperially atop the coronation cake are dolls dressed by the clever home dressmaker. As a wedding confection, a bride and groom can be substituted. Read the recipe very carefully and count all your ingredients. There are 22 in the cake, and 6 in the frosting.

Coronation Cake

Five cups sifted cake flour, 3 teaspoons combination baking powder, 1-4 teaspoon soda, !2 teaspoon salt, 3 teaspoons cinnamon, .1 teaspoon allspice, 1 teaspoon mace, . 1 teaspoon nutmeg, 3 pounds raisins, finely cut, 2 pounds currants, 2

pound dates seeded and finely cut, 1 pound citron, thinly sliced, 1 tablespoon grated orange rind, 1':2 teaspoon grated lemon rind, 1 pound butter or other shortening, 1 pound brown sugar, 12 eggs, well beaten, 4 squares unsweetened. chocolate, melted, 1 cup molasses, 1 cup tart jelly, 3-4 cup orange juice, 3 tablespoons lemon juice. : Sift flour once, measure, add baking powder, soda, salt and spices, and sift together three times. Sift 1 cup of flour mixture over fruit and mix well. Combine orange and lemon rind with butter, creaming thoroughly; add sugar gradually and cream together until light and fluffy. Add eggs and chocolate and blend: then molasses, jelly and fruit juices. Add flour gradually, beating well after each addition; then add fruit. Divide into pans which have been greased, lined with heavy paper, and again greased. Bake in slow oven (250 degrees F.) until done: In 10-inch “pan (6'2 pounds batter), bake 51% hours; in 7 %:-inch pan (4 pounds batter) bake. 4 hours; in 5-inch pan (2 pounds batter) bake 3 hours. Ornamental Frosting

Four tablespoons butter, 5 cups sifted confectioners’ sugar, 2 egg whites, unbeaten, 2 .tablespoons cream (about), 15 teaspoons vanilla, 1-4 teaspoon salt. Cream butter; add part of the sugar gradually, blending after each addition. Add remaining sugar, alternately with egg whites, then with cream, until of right consistency to spread. Beat after each addition until smooth. Add vanilla and salt. Double this recipe to frost and decorate Coronation Cake. >

Mind Your Manners

Test your knowledge of correct social usages by answering .the following questions, then checking against the authoritative answers below: 1. On the day of the wedding ‘what person is responsible for the bride's luggage? 2. If a bride is married in a traveling dress, does she have any bridesmaids? 3. May she then have maid of honor? 4, At a ‘church wedding where do the bride's parenis sit? 5. Is it as correct for the bride to have the glove of her J ring finger ripped so that it may be pulled off by the tip, as- to remove her left glove entirely?

Color seems to along. Preference for certain shades is evident. With one friend the obsession against red is so pronounced that it almost makes her ill, while lavendar is apparently as necessary to her as her breath.

Decorators have studied the psychology of color, and now recommend restful shades in the nursery with increasing tones and combinations as the child grows. However this may be, it is. the preference of the child himself that needs more understanding than it usually gets. A boy may overwork a favorite tie, perhaps, and a girl a certain dress, not realizing that it is the yellow or the green that is so satisfying; all the boy knows is that he likes that tie. His sister may be more articulate.

Boys Taught Restraint

Maybe they don’t look quite so well, or so we think, in the color they like best, but they feel more at home in their favorite clothes. The color they - naturally sems to “fit,” and they feel better the day they wear it. In this they are precisely like grown-ups. But here arises ‘the problem of

conform to accepted dress, and colors that break the rules. The boy, particularly, it appears, has to be drilled in restraint, so the world thinks, in order to know how to dress properly when he is older. Do we dare to trust him to select new clothes? I think it can be-worked out very well.

We give the girls much more lattitude when it comes to color. This continues all through life, and most men are color-starved as a result. Why should we stress conservatism for men in the name of good taste, and say so little to the ladies? Why all this repression? Are males so different.
