N- FOOD

By MRS. GAYNOR MADDOX

FAMILY HOLIDAYS are ahead. of us. Let's study the budget dinner that gives fine flavor and the taste of a feast. The following menu was worked out exclusively for readers of this column by the expert menu planner of a national chain of grocery stores. There may be some slight variation from day to day because of price changes, but in general, the costs will be about $2.25 for this special dinner to serve six persons. The menu: Cider cocktails, roast loin 70f pork, brown gravy, sage ang onions, diced potatoes and yellow turnips, cranberry jelly, celery, rolls and butter, pumpkin custards with orange marmalade sauce, apples, nuts, coffee (or milk).

Roast Loin of Pork Prick fat of meat with fork; place on rack in open roasting pan; do not add water. Roast in slow oven (300 degrees F.) for 3 hours. ‘Season with salt and pepper; continue roasting until done, allowing 30 to 35 minutes per pound.

~~ JANE JORDAN

" . If she leaves town it will be the end of me.

DEAR JANE JORDAN—I am madly in love with a dear, sweet girl. We are both the same age, 33 years old. She is a wonderful dancer, and when we go dancing I only can get about one dance, All the men simply grab her away and I end up with a fight and a black eye. She is blond, with blue eyes, slender, and a perfect lady. Everyone seems to love her. She has a personality you just can’t resist. I'd marry her tomor-

' yow if she would have’me, but she said she had one romance, had

been married and divorced, and wanted to go away to forget all If this! should happen I would kill myself. She tells me to date other girls and have a good time. I tried that, but I want just this one girl. I told my mother, as I took to drinking because of this. Mother called to see her at my request, and found that she had been crying. Please do not blame

,. her. I happen to know her ex-husband and how unworthy he is.

Mother and I are leaving it up to you. Please give us You advice, #

D. D. oo. \

Answer—Doesn’t it strike you as a little odd that a man of 33 should expect his mother to help him win the girl he wants? Now I don’t believe that it would leave a very good impression on a mature woman who had been- married and divorced, for a man to ‘send his mother to plead his cause. It rather indicates that you aren’t as adult as you should be at 33. One has a picture of a boy whose mother always solved his problems for him, who leaned too heavily on maternal aid. Always, with such a boy, there comes a time when there is something he wants that mother can’t get for him. When that time comes he is unable to cope with théglisappointment. Consider your reaction: “If this should happen, I would kill myself.” Ayman who has depended upon himself instead of his mother doesn’t have such a reaction. He has learned to cope with the trials and tribulations of life and to give up what he can’t have to go after something else. He has learned to bear deprivations and to accept substitutes. Only the child demands “this or nothing, now or never, her or nobody.” Under wise guidance the child gradually

- learns that such an attitude is foreign to reality, that nobody is able

to gratify all his desires, that some frustration is inevitable. Now you aren't going to win this woman by pleading or by making yourself into a pitiable object, whose life will end when she leaves town. Let her go, if she must. Don’t burden her with your emotional dependence. Doubtless she wants a man upon whom she can lean instead of one who leans upon.her. Her advice for you to see other women and have a good time is excellent. To drink because you can’t get what you want,is another indication of your poor equipment for life and your inability to bear dis-

*. appointment. Let me tell you that such weakness in a man gives a

mature woman pause. She knows full well that he won't be much help in the storms of life. She has seen him fail under pressure. She knows that when pressure comes again, as it must, that she

will have to strengthen her husband,

he will try to soak away the strain in alcohol.

By condemning the consumer or vice versa, neither consumer or business can progress. By co-operation both advance.

It’s the Keynote

This is the keynote of the Consumer’s Institute which the bureau, Butler University, the Advertising Club and various women’s organizations are sponsoring weekly at Block’s and Ayres’ auditoriums. The bureau, according to Toner M. Overley, invites the help of the housewife in ferreting out unfair practices. He points out that if the homemaker informs herself on the elementary principles of unfair practice and how to reeggnize trickery, she will consciously unconsciously avoid individuals and businesses which do not play fair. This way she disciplines business and at the same time protects legitimate business. . The bureau receives about 8000 calls each year from consumers to report unfair practices. “By calling the bureau,” says Mr. Overley, “the women can give information to be compiled, from which to determine policies and to take disciplinary measures.”

Bureau Now 25 Years Old

The Bureau, by the way, will celebrate its 25th anniversary next year. The retailers who come closest to the consumer were among the first to recognize the need for co-opera-tion with the consumer. In their interest to “please” they carry on a fight with the manufacturer to supply them with a better product. In the interest of consumers every large manufacturer and department store now has bureaus of standards to test the goods which they put on the market. Stores and various industries, eager to get their side of the story acrcss to the consumer, have speakers and demonstrators available to appear beiore women's organizations. Much of the work with the consumer is carried on nationally. Several councils have been set up to test consumer reaction by mailing

. | products to a cross-section of the

nation’s women to get their reaction before placing it on the market. The National Association of Manufacturers has just announced the creation of a Women’s Division to foster co-operation between the woman buyer and industry.

What Business Is Doing

The American Standards Association has organized an Advisory Committee on Ultimate Consumer Goods. The National Retail Dry Goods Association has a ConsumerRetailer Council to develop uniform terminology for retail advertising. The Associated Grocery Manufacturers of America has set up a Consumer Committee and the American Association of Advertising Agencies has a Consumer-Advertiser Council." The American Gas Association and the National Electrical Manufacturers have done work along the line of placing certified

performance seals on goods. One large chain store bids for consumer favor by grading its goods A, B. and C. "o Under the Roosevelt administration the consumer movement.has received encouragement on a wide variety of activities. At present the consumer's friend

in Washington is the Consumer’s|

Counsel of the Department of Agriculture. This organization has more than 50 pamphlets available to consumers. It publishes a biweekly magazine “Consumer’s Guide” which goes free to 135,000 persons and for which the counsel receives 5000 more requests each month.

Band Together in Federation

Many of the consumer organizations are concerned lest they be exploited by special interests. To guard ' against this several have banded together in the Consumer’s National Federation. Its activity is educational, trying to organize interest in existing groups. Consumers in some states want state and Federal consumer bureaus. Michigan has one which gives weekly marketing tips and tips on wise buying methods. Some states still have consumer councils organized under the NRA and functioning now on their own initiative. Business wants a central authority to which it could turn in its demand for restraints, with rebuttals of unfair charges and to find out just what the consumer really wants. Some even talk of a Federal Department of the Congumer. The Consumer’s Institute of Indianapolis indicates that local groups are recognizing a mutual interest. They believe they can get together to talk it over. 2 = 8
