“WHAT IN the world will the new teacher think of your hands?” Asking that and similar questions will get mother exactly nowhere toward inspiring the small fry to do something about their appearance before going back to school. About the best thing she can do—without mentioning school at all —is to try to get the children to follow her own example. Which is, during next month to begin thinking in terms of fall clothes and fall activities rather than of summer ones.

Nutritious Diet Interests 4-H Club Girl
Uldene Christenberry spent her summers three or four years ago attending the Julia Jameson Nutrition Camp. There she gained four and one-half pounds each summer on diets containing a plethora of milk, eggs and.green vegetables. Yesterday she demonstrated an ice cream recipe at the Marion County 4-H Club Demonstration Contest in the Power & Light Co. Building. Her demonstration was, in a large part, a carryover of her interest in the nutritious diets provided at the Camp. For when she was home, the Camp had arranged diets for her to prepare there. Uldene, who is 13 years old and a member of the

Those are the three items which are being stressed in her 4-H food prepara{ion work. She is so interested that she is taking both Food Preparation I and II in the one year when ordinarily the courses are spread over two years. She is taking first and second year baking too. Butter cakes and oatmeal cookies, similar to those served at camp, find their way onto the Christenberry table. Here is her receipt for buttermilk ice cream presented in yesterday's contest: ; Ingredients: 1 quart buttermilk, 2 cups crushed pineapple, 1 cup sugar and 1 small can condensed or fresh cream. Directions: Put sugar in mixing bowl. Add milk

JANE JORDAN
DEAR JANE JORDAN-—I am 19 years old and very much in love with a young man at Fort Benjamin Harrison. We went together about three or four months and he often said that he loved me and enjoyed my company very much. About a month age he heard a lie about me but at the time didn’t know it was a lie; so we parted. He said he still loved me as much as ever and if he found out that what he had heard was the truth or not he would let me know. It has been about four or five weeks since then and I haven't heard from him. All the boys whom he knows say that he still likes me but he knows what he heard was a lie and he is ashamed to write. They say he never goes out with other girls but just stays around camp. I have tried going out with other boys but I just can’t forget him. Do you think I should go and see him and have a talk with him or do you think he should make the first move? . LONESOME.
» ” 8 Answer—Of course he should make the first move, and he will if his interest in you is strong enough. A young man who lets malicious gossip break up a love affair without knowing it is the truth doesn’t have a very deep interest in a girl in the first place. It looks to me as if he seized the first excuse that came to hand to duck out before things got too serious for his taste. If this is true he will not appreciate a visit from you but will be bored by your efforts to re-establish yourself in his esteem. If I am wrong and he is really ashamed of the way he was taken in by gossip, let him apologize. Why should you be so easy and forgiving? After all you are the injured party and have a right to be disgusted with his lack of loyalty. Instead, all you want is to go after him and coax him back. You can’t hope to win his respect in this manner. Where is your pride?
DEAR JANE JORDAN—We are girls of 15 and when we have dates with other boys the boys we like best think we don’t have time for them. If we don’t have dates with other boys they think we aren't popular. How can we find out if a boy likes us? ‘We have heard other people say they do but how can we be sure? YOUNG HOPEFULS.
» » 2 Answer—It is better for a hoy to complain because you don’t have time for him than to complain because you aren’t pcpular. If he has any spunk at all he will see that you make time for him, but he won't be interested in a girl that nobody else wants. When a boy makes dates with you consistently you can be pretty sure that he likes you, otherwise he wouldn't come around.
Times Special Writer TWO SHORT, short travel stories | —one pleasant: Once upon a time there was a girl who—although she had known Zor four months that she'd have a two week summer va-! cation—did not make any plans for
it. She had to work late on the day of departure and so had to cancel | the appointment to have her hair washed and waved. She packed in| a great rush, not bothering to put! layers of tissue paper between the folds in her clothes and forgetting | completely several fairly important | items. | By the time she got on the train | she was worn out. Without bother- | ing to wash her face or pin up the | back ends of her straggling locks, | she tumbled into bed. = = 2
CAME THE DAWN. And with it the scramble through two suit- | cases in an effort to locate cleans-
makeup, some of which just couldn't be found. Our heroine finally managed to | put everything back into her bags, | dress and get off at the proper station. The look of concern on the face of her hostess and of surprise on the face of the hostess’ attractive brother only confirmed her own suspicions that she looked much the worse for a night's travel. And it | took almost the full two weeks’ |
‘time to live down the bad first im- | | pression she had made.
But here's the story of another | vacationer—a girl who really knows | how to get off to a flying start for! any summer holiday. Nobody ever | looks concerned or puzzled when! SHE arrives, Why? = 2 » BECAUSE MARY plans her va-| cation months in advance, shops for holiday clothes and makeup two or three weeks beforehand, | doesn’t make a last-minute ap-| pointment with the hairdresser and! packs the night before, not the day | of departure. She gets on the train fairly rested and minus a case of | Jitters. She has a makeup case into which all of her creams are tucked. In addition, she carries a bottle of friction lotion for a quick morning sponge bath, her own soap, some] little cotton discs which become!
