We, the Women
Don’t Mask ‘Bad Habits’
Before Mama
By RUTH MILLETT
“I CAN'T smoke when Mother comes to visit,” I heard a woman say regretfully the other day. The woman was 40 years old—and the mother of a family herself. That's an odd situation—but not an unusual one. There are lots of parents who continue to try to influence their children’s behavior long after they are grown men and women, with minds and judgment just as sound as those of their parents —or sounder. It's a big mistake for parents to make, for there a f € enough natural obstacles in the path of congenialty between the old and the young without the old thinking up artificial ones. No wonder it's not always an unmixed blessing when Mama or Papa writes a young married couple or a working son or daughter that “I'm coming for a visit,” if Mama or Papa is going to object to the way things are done in the child's heme or bachelor’s apartment. The best way for a parent who wants to be truly welcome at any time to behave is to accept his grown child's way of living without criticism, whether he secretly approves of all the “goings on” or not. It’s not as though the parent who has a fit if his daughter smokes or

VERY FEW women nowadays need to be reminded about the importance of good grooming, artistic | make-up and becoming coiffures,

The secret of a good speaking voice lies in resonance and proper breathing, and these can be acquired by any woman if she will only devote a little time and effort to) her speech. Proper voice placement | is essential for resonance and for proper breathing, relaxation of jaw and throat muscles is necessary. Correct speech demands the blending of these two phases so that the voice rides on the breath unimpeded. There is an extremely simple way of checking on placement. Close up your ears with your fingers and | hum a scale, going up and down in the pitch range that is normal for you. You will find one particular level at which sound seems to fill the entire head. This occurs when the entire tone is localized at the resonance center. Technically this is called frontal placement and this is correct for your voice,

An even older doll, cuddled by some little girl as early as 1840, is the gift of Miss Helen Smith, Crawfordsville. A lavish black gown covers its kid body. Its hands and feet are fashioned of wood. And the girls as well as boys are “all eyes” for a toy grocery store in the exhibit. It is one imported late in the Victorian period by Charles Mayer & Co. from Germany for the daughters of Mr. and Mrs. G. A. Schnull, now Mrs. Daniel Glossbrenner, Mrs. John G. Rauch and Mrs. Bertha Schnull Fauvre of Wellesley, Mass. The store, a three-sided miniature building of wood is topped by a sign reading Schnull & Co. The walls are lined with various and sundry kegs, drawers and boxes, In the center stands the old type scale for weighing out the goods. On the topshelf is stored a box of snuff, one labeled “crackers” and another “stove polish.” Also on the top shelf are rows of cones of sugar. The German name for them was Zuckerhut, meaning sugar hat, because of their similarity to dunce caps. '
Toy Banks Shown
And mamas and papas of the bygone days must have had a pretty easy time getting their childfen to bank their pennies. For the local kiddies are quite intrigued with two banks on display. One has a large eagle perched on the side of her nest. A penny is inserted in its beak and then it bends over to feed two little eaglets and the coin goes in a slot just in front of them. Another is a donkey which kicks when the coin is inserted. But for all the intriguing features of the toys, the little Victorian lads and lassies must have had a hard time with their reading. Judging from the children’s books on display at the Museum there was no fiction for children as children know it today. All the books had an emphatic moral tone and some often dwelt on rather morbid subjects. The better way of life was always the “pointed theme.” For example, one is entitled “The Way to Be Happy”

SEWING SEC
If he thinks he is pretty good there’s no reason why he shouldn’t be, his thoughts help him to get on with the work, for while he measures and beats and mixes he entertains himself by anticipating praise and compliments from family and guests around the festive board. That's the opinion of the Mystery Chef, who, between radio food talks across the years, has taught many a lawyer and business executive the arts of saucepan and skillet.
Famous Men Who Cooked
“There’s nothing modern in this masculine flair for cooking,” he said. “Plenty of famous men, past and present, especially those with
and pleasure in cooking.” He named Hume, the philosopher; Whistler, the artist; Steinmetz, the scientist, and added that a list of prominent men of today who could get up a grand meal “would reach from here to yonder.” Justice Charles Evans Hughes tops his list. He told about watching eight utilities executives preparing a five-course dinner, “All I did was to provide the makings and give each man a recipe for the dish he was to prepare after they had drawn lots,” the Mystery Chef said. “Every course was perfect. It upheld my argument that cooking is not difficult; that if good recipes are followed good meals will result, whether the cook be a child of 10 or a grandfather who never was any use in the kitchen.” Ham Roll With Apples The utilities executives’ main dish was baked ham roll, prepared this way: Have raw ham cut in thin slices. Spread lightly with a mixture of mustard and vinegar, one teaspoon mustard to two of vinegar. Cover with apples, sliced very thin. Sprinkle with brown sugar. Roll, starting with the fat side, so fat will be in center. Skewer firmly, place in a baking pan, with a few dabs of butter on each roll. Bake in a moderate oven (375 degrees) for 25 minutes. Spoon the pan gravy over rolls several times while cooking. The Mystery Chef said Le was past 40 when he started cooking his own meals at a time when he couldn't afford to eat at the best places and didn’t like the food at cheap places. He found cooking so easy and so delightful that for years he has been trying to debunk the subject for other ambitious neophytes.

Why Do Men Like to Cook’? It’s Recreation for Them
Says the Mystery Chef
By GAIL GARNER Times Special Writer
NEW YORK, Aug| 7.—One reason why business and professional men like to cook is because of a natural urge to do something with their hands after using their brains in the office all day or all week. Unlike those women who regard cooking as drudgery, the average man amateur, getting up a Sunday meal, goes at it as if it were recreation.

Mrs. H. S. Teitel Is Legion Candidate
The candidacy of Mrs. H. 8. Teitel for secretary of the Indiana Department, American Legion Auxe iliary, has been announced by Mrs. Teitel’s local group, the Hilton U. Brown Jr. unit. Her name will be on the slate at the state convention in South Bend on Aug. 19. ’ During the last year Mrs. Teitel has served as southern state vice president and this spring was general chairman of the first Indiana Girls’ State held on the Indiana Central College campus. She was general chairman of the 1938 state convention here and was a delegate
“Anybody can cook,” the Mystery Chef repeated. He makes that statement every few minutes
whether the subject happens to be fish, stew or cherry pie. “If men seem to be better cooks when they go at it in earnest, that may be because their minds are trained to accuracy. You put certain ingredients together. To these you appy certain heat for a certain time. A child, a college president or an experienced cook should get the same results if the rules are follcwed. Gigantic powers, silent and unseen, are working behind all this.” When asked to tell the name of the man who works behind his writing and radio nom de plume the Mystery Chef, showing a stranger around the terrace of his sumptuous E. 75th St. penthouse, stepped aside and began weeding the geraniums. “My name is Mystery Chef,” he persisted. All the same, his cook books are copyrighted by John MacPherson,
to national conventions in Los Angeles and Boston. : Mrs. Teitel has heen an active member of the Hilton U. Brown Jr. Unit for 16 years, serving two years each as president and as secretary. She was president of the Twelfth District Council in 1939-40. Other lical orginzations she is active in are the Indianapolis Council of Women and the Indiana Indorsers of Photoplays.
