Emilie squirms a bit as Nurse Claire Tremblay. helps her into her dress. Five little girls to dress after each morning bath makes something of a job, as anybody knows who has dressed even one. :

Marie shrieks with glee as Nurse Noel pulls the dress over her head, for this famous youngster is eager to get on to breakfast and the

day's activities,

Thosé snarls do hurt when nurse combs them out, but Annette (above) is too good a little soldier to cry, and when the hair is in order, she will be smiling and ready for breakfast like Cecile (below).

Jane Warns Her Stage. Career Is Hard Struggle.

Put your problems in a letter td Jane | Jordan, who will answer your questions | in this column daily.

and accepting an offer which would give me a chance to de- | velop my talent for the stage? cu | ANSWER—You look with longing |

on a profession in which it is im- | possible to succeed without out- | standing talent, invincible health | and exceptional stamina. You see | only the glamour of making public | appearances, the exhiliration of dancing before an audience, the intoxication of hoped-for applause. The long years of back-breaking | practice, the rigors of training routine, the heart-breaking failure to | get IR a calling where so many others are better than you | are, are no part of your picture. I|

imagine that tnis, far more than the |

immorality of the stage, is what influences your parents. The trouble is that every girl who loves to dance and act and who is successful in amateur performances is not cut out for the hard life of the stage. No parent likes to destroy | a girl's belief in her own ability. It is difficult to say to an eager, hopeful child, “We think you're just about the cutest thing in the world. Youre a big success with us and | with your friends, the shining light |

of amateur theatricals, but after all | the world will consider your talent mediocre. You can't hold your own |

with experts. The competition is too keen, too cruel. We can't have you | traveling from dingy town to town, hoofing it in cheap show houses, | tramping the streets for engage- | ments, disillusioned, discouraged, rubbing elbows with might-have-beens, has-beens and down-and-outs.” Few parents with a potential star on their hands ever stand in its light. Their method of saving your pride is to disparage the morality of the profession which attracts you. One of the chief causes for unhappiness in life comes from the overestimation of the self. We dream of easy successes which we aren’t fitted to achieve. We set a goal impossible to realize and suffer over our inability to get there. Many a poor actress could have made a good stenographer or filing clerk if she hadn't been daz, zled by delusions of grandeur on the stage, dreaming of her name in neon lights. Of course, I do not know how much talent you have. You may be the shining exception. If you have what it takes to succeed in the ballet, nothing I, or your parents, say will stop you. Every ohjection we raise will serve as fresh incentive. I suspect that if you really had the unwavering conviction you were fitted for the stage, you would not have bothered to write your letter

Chop Suey Is

Department of Agriculture Provides Recipe.

By MRS. GAYNOR MADDOX NEA Service Staff Writer It's an odd world. Uncle Sam prepares a booklet in which he tells American housewives how to make chop suey.. Chop suey is a fixation with most men—sort of a secret sorrow. That's why the Department of Agriculture rose to the defense of American womanhood. We're a gallant race. Pork Chop Suey (8 servings)

Two cups shredded cooked lean pork, 2 cups shredded onion, 2 cups shredded celery, 2 cups meat broth, 2 cups sliced raw Jerusalem artichokes or radishes, 1 green pepper, shredded, 4 tablespoons soy sauce (you can buy this at almost any good grocery), 2 tablespoons fat, 1 tablespoon cold water, 1 teaspoon cornstarch, salt if needed. Use heavy iron frying pan. Heat half the fat. ‘Add shredded pork and brown. Remove. Place other half of fat in pan and turn in pepper and onion and cook 3 minutes. Add celery, pork, broth. Cover and simmer 5 minutes. Mix cornstarch and water until smooth, then stir into mixture and cook another few minutes. Add artichokes or radishes. Add soy sauce. Season with salt if needed, though that is not very Chinese. Soy sauce should be the only seasoning. Serve with a great mound of Ary flaky rice. Never, by any means, serve wet, mushy rice. That would start a tong war. From Helen Alexander's little cook book—she’'s a magnificent American cook born in the Hawaiian Islands—comes this’ version of chop suey. One-half pound pork, sliced fine, Y2 pound round steak, sliced fine; 1 large onion, sliced fine; 1 clove garlic, chopped; 4 celery stalks, sliced fine; 6 dried mushrooms, sliced fine; 72 can bamboo shoots, sliced fine; 1 pound bean sprouts, 3 tablespoons soy sauce, 2 tablespoons olive oil. The unusual Chinese ingredients used in this recipe can be purchased in packages at almost any specialty grocery. Soak dried mushrooms in warm water 12 hour. Remove stems and slice fine. Fry pork, beef, onions and garlic in olive oil until brown.

rooms. Simmer 10 minutes. Add soy sauce and bean sprouts. Simmer another 10 minutes. Serve with a great bowl of rice cooked in the Chinese manner—meaning dry and flaky. If you like chop suey, there are three things to learn. First, the use of a large sharp knife for wafer slicing, second, how to select only gerfect vegetables, and third, to stay away from China. They never heard of chop suey.

Solution to Previous Problem By W. E. M KENNEY American Bridge League Secretary NE mark of a good bridge player is the precautions he takes to make the play safe. The person who plays every hand “wide open,” taking all sorts of risks, may get away with his contract once in a while if he is lucky, but he will lose many that more careful play would make, In today’s hand, despite two apparent losers in hearts, South’s hand might appear to present no problem. Actually it requires a correct plan and careful play to fulfill. South had only one justification for his opening bid, which was the barest minimum in top cards, and that was the fact that he held a six-card suit. North, however, well supplied the high card deficiency, and in addition had such a fine trump fit that he could afford to disregard his partner's sign-offs and carry the auction to a slam. The opening lead was won with the ace in dummy. Of course, the obvious play is to establish clubs, because, with West's vulnerable overcall, the spade finesse cannot be expected to win. The king of trumps was led to the second trick. West discarded a spade. South now took stock pt his resources. He cashed the ace and king of clubs, as the clubs must break no worse than four-two, if he is to make his contract. Another club was trumped and dummy entered with the trump queen. The fourth club was led and ruffed. Now East's last trump was drawn, the ace of spades cashed and the queen ruffed; then one
