At the gaily decorated top of the board is a line, “My Daily Work,” and down one side is a row of little holes into which brightly colored pegs are inserted as Junior performs his tasks. © Just before each peg hole is a sentence covering each task: I was quiet this morning. I brushed my teeth. I hung up my clothing. I kept my hands clean. I came to meals on time. I ate my vegetables. I did not tease. I put away my toys. 1 minded my mother. I went to bed on time. At the bottom of the board is a row Of seven peg holes labeled Monday through Sunday. When a “perfect day is completed, that day receives a colored peg. And for the week in which no slip-ups whatsoever occur there is a hole with a star painted around it and a shiny gold-colored peg for the “Gold Star Week.”

scorching-hot ' paraffin around the edge of the container to a depth of %-inch. Tip the glass so that the paraffin flows into this space. Q--How can a canvas awning be cleaned? A—Scrub it with a stiff brush to remove the dust; then apply soft soap and Tub briskly with a fibre brush of suitsble size. If the dirt is: stubborn, add a little ammonia to the soap. When clean, use plenty of clear water to remove the soap, and allow the canvas to dry in the sun. Q—What are kabobs? A—They are made by stringing pieces of meat, quarters of onions and two-inch pieces of bacon on skewers in alternate layers, and broiling them. Either beef or lamb
cut in one-inch cubes may be used.|
Veal kidneys, either alone or in combination with pieces of lean meat, add a desirable flavor. For well-done meat, allow space between the pieces; for rare meat, pack them closely together.

JANE JORDAN
DEAR JANE JORDAN—I am beginning to wonder if I will ever have any real happiness in life. I am 27 years old and the only support of my widowed mother. When my father died years ago, my mother and I broke up our home and went to live with my uncle and two aunts who never had married. Since that time the aunt who helped to make a living for all of us has passed away, and my uncle who had drawnea pension for years did recently. This leaves only me to keep my mother and one remaining aunt who is nearly blind and can’t be expected to help. My mother gets every
_ cent of my wages and buys my clothing. I have had a boy friend
for seven years. | We are in love and I am afraid I will lose him if I can’t get married. My mother wants to keep me with her as long as she lives, but I feel that she married and so should I. Could I be blamed for marrying? ao TERESA. ® 8 = ; x = * . Answer—Certainly you should marry. ret nothing sway you from your purpose. No mother has a right to prevent her daughter from making any one of the major adjustments of life and it is the grossest sort of selfishness for her to expect you to sacrifice yourself for her. If she had any real love for you she would look ahead to the years after her death when you are all alone in the world, and she would not want you to be a sour, embittered old maid, deprived of the satisfaction of the normal life which she herself enjoyed. . Instead, she regards you as her possession and thinks only of her own security. She takes your money and buys your clothes as if you still were a little girl instead of a mature woman. The first step in your thrust for freedom should be the management of your own money. You earn the living. You should be the one to pay the bills and do the purchasing. Naturally she will resist any such move on your part and be dreadfully hurt and tearful, but you must harden your heart. After all are you a woman or a baby? Once your decision is firmly made fo marry and have a home of your own apart from your mother and aunt, contributing only
* what you can afford to their support, you will be surprised at the
various solutions, formerly regarded as impossible, that will occur to you. Of course they will have to get along on less. They may have to face life in an institution for the old. Your mother will fight every idea you present and regard any change as a crushing blow, but it is time she made some of the sacrifices instead of you. She has lived her life whereas yours is before you. She may regard her fate as dreadful, but nothing could be so dreadful for her as the fate which she willingly imposes on you. Would she do for you what she requires that you do for her? JANE JORDAN.

good. : But that day is past, and the nondrinking guest has come into his own. Hosts and hostesses no longer just tolerate him—they love him. At last they’ve realized that it is posible to mix drinkers and nondrinkers without either suffering any ill effects, and both managing to look out for their own good time. And hostesses especially have come to see that the non-drinking guest is always more considerate, more easily managed, and less boring than the guest who after the third drink thinks everything he says is either funny or has deep social significance. ;

IDES that, a lot of hostesses are their budgets these day e guest who doesn’t
consume liquor is a financial asset. Happily the non-drinking guest realizes that he is no longer a problem to hosts and hostesses—and so has quit apologizing for not drink-
ing. The days of holding one drink all evening are over. Today the non-
drinking guest just says, “No, thanks,” and lets it go at that.
