Co» meats, provided there is some hot dish on the menu, make perfect food for hot weather. : . : A cup of hot soup, hot vegetables or even some form of hot bread will supply the warm food needed, and the cold meats, cooked in advance and kept in the refrigerator, will do the rest.

The following recipes are standard, and will teach you how to go the heaviest part of the cooking during the cooler hours of the ay. : jig Of course, these meats can be served for two or three days if the family is small, provided you have a trustworthy refrigerator.

Spiced Corn Beef

Four pounds brisket or rump corn beef, water to cover, 1 large onion, bunch celery leaves, 3 tablespdons brown sugar, 2 carrots, 1 bay leaf, 1 teaspoon allspice, easpoon whole cloves, 34 teaspoon cinnamon or 1 cinnamo stick, 1 teaspoon whole mustard seed. / Wipe meat with damp cloth. Cover with water in large heavy pot. Add vegetables and sugar. Put spices in small cheesecloth bag and place in pot. Cover and simmer very slowly for about 4 hours. Add additional water if necessary from time to time. Allow meat to cool in the liquor it is cooked in. Remove from liquor, chill in refrigerator. Slice very thin to serve.

Boiled Fowl

Dress, clean and truss chicken as for roasting. Place on rack in large kettle and barely cover with boiling water. Add a small onion, a stalk of celery and a bay leaf to stock. Simmer 30 to 50 minutes per pound or until meat is tender. Add 1 teaspoon salt to each quart of water after 1% hours of cooking.

When tender, cool in ifs own broth. Remove and chill in refrigerator. The chicken meat is perfect for serving sliced, in salads, Steamed and the broth makes delicious luncheon soups to be served cups. :

CHILDREN

blade mace,

By OLIVE BARTON

"H” did you manage- to make your children so polite and kind?” Mrs. Jones asked Mrs. Smith. “Do you think they are polite?” asked the pleased mother,

. “They worry me quite a lot, you know.”

“I would give almost anything to know your secret,” said Mrs. Jones, “so I could teach my two youngsters how to behave.” | “That is the odd part of it,” replied Mrs. Smith. ‘I have no secret at all.” 3 Let us step into the Jones house tonight when John Jones comes home. John is tired and short-tempered. He says, “I hope there is a decent dinner for once.” Mrs. Jones answers acidly, “Then you had better go somewhere else to eat, my love. I do the best I can.” : Mollified by food cooked to his taste, John is really human for a while. But soon his temper gets its work in again. “I wish to thunder you would get some decent-sized napkins. These gunswabs are ridiculous.” He crumbles the tea napkin into a ball and: hurls it into a corner. .

x » 2 = ” #

A% through the meal and the evening this bickering goes on. The children come in for their share of it.* Feeling that their only defense is to answer back, they invent new ways to do so. With rudeness their daily portion, they feel a natural awkwardness over trying to be polite. So they carry their rough ways and lack of tact right with them wherever they go. Of what use is} when the very air they breathe lacks courtesy? In the Smith family, father and mother make a point of good ! breeding. They ask for things with a “Please” and never forget their “Thank you's.” They avoid open breaks about annoyances. They remember to speak pleasantly and normally. And they set such an example that their children would feel conspicuous acting any other way. In short, one family is conditioned to good manners and fine breeding. The other is getting further and further away from them

every day.

JANE JORDAN

D== JANE JORDAN—TI went with a fellow for 3 year and a half, accepted an engagement ring and planned to marry him. We even had things for our home. Then¢I found myself very discontented and wrote you about my problém. You suggested that I go out with other men and not marry him in my state of mind. I did and found that I really didn’t love him. I explained everything to him and broke our engagement. I realized that all I wanted was a good time with different fellows. He is very hurt and bitter, and says he can’t eat, sleep or work. He has really lost weight. He comes over and cries and it hurts me terribly

to see him this way. ’ g I try to explain to him how miserable we would be married, but he wants to keep on seeing me. He threatened to do something desperate and I am afraid that he will. Perhaps I'm wrong and I'll get hurt sometime in the way I've hurt him. " Do you suggest that I go ahead and marry him because I've hurt him, or what? TROUBLED. = ® & » 2 2» Answer—The young man is trying to make you responsible for . his life instead of taking the responsibility himself. By threatening to do something desperate, he hopes to make you feel so guilty that | you will reverse your decision. His attitude is childish and reveals a weakness of character which should warn you against him and fortify your decision instead of weakening it. In childhood all of us have cried when we failed to achieve our own way. Most of us have sulked and wished to fall ill in order to | make mother feel sorry. Lucky is the child whose crying and sulking nets him nothing, for in his maturity he will not resof® to these infantile methods of gaining his own ends. Th This young man is striving on the useless side of life. Instead of making a direct attack on his problem, he attacks himself and | points to his own suffering. In other words, he tries to control gq sit- | uation by arousing sympathy for his weakness instead of courting | fell out of love with him! Because you hurt a man by facing reality, it does not follow that | someone will hurt you to even up the score. No one gets through life without a few scratches, but you don’t have to pay for the sturdy refusal to take on a weakling whom you have ceased to love. On the | contrary, you avoid a tremendous amount of grief. ‘ : : JANE JORDAN.

Don’t Say When

By RUTH MILLETT A great many hostesses are doing a lot of yelling these days. They

“Summer Guests Unfair to Hostesses.” Here plaints: Guests have started doing the asking—instead of waiting to be begged. And instead of being a bit sheepish about inviting themselves, they seem to feel they are doing their hostesses a great favor in descending on them for a stay at which they beg to be treated “just like a member of the family.” When they arrive they refuse to Most hostesses don’t

are 2 few of their com-

They seldom have the decencv to g0 off by themselves—under some pretext or other—for a whole afternoon, giving a weary, though still smiling hostess a chance to let down a bit. They sleep peacefully on in the morning, so that the maid has two breakfasts to copk. And they never suggest going out for lunch, so that the maid has another extra meal to get ready in the middle of the day. Apparently they forget entirely that the thought of losing a good maid is more terrifying to a woman than the thought of losing all her friends. They spoil the children, ruin the well-trained dog, and somehow or other manage to get a husband and wife both wishing they could walk out of their hapoy home, and never come back. The family has secretly started running smoothly again after one guest's departure until the hostess has another letter from another od friend saying, “My vacation starts soon and I can’t think of anything I would rather do with it than visit you. Let me know if it's convenient.” So who can blame the harried hostess if she starts to study how to Joe friends and alienate people ”
