Homemaking—

There's No Priority on Picnics;

These Sandwich Fillings

DON'T LET the diminishing use of your car deprive the youngsters of picnic-fun this summer. It's a “picnic” to them anywhere, as long as there are sandwiches, cake and lemonade—old play clothes to wear, and no formal table where they have to sit down. The park nearby or the back yard can be a place for a picnic, as long as the holiday spirit is

there. Use paper cups, paper plates, paper napkins. Carry. everything in the familiar picnic basket. Wrap the sandwiches and other food as usual. Children like to unwrap things—and it gives you a chance to prepare the food in advance, often a convenience these busy days. Streamline your sandwich-mak-ing by spreading out slices of bread in a double row on your kitchen table. Spread each slice with wellsoftened butter all the way to the crust. Spread fillings on one row of slices, top with opposite row of

Little Paint Saves

Metalwork

A little paint in time saves metalwork. Any metalwork around the house subject to rust and corrosion should be thus protected. If rusting has already started, soften rust first with kerosene and then follow with steel wool rubbing. Be sure before repainting that all surfaces are perfectly clean, dry and free from rust or dust particles. Consult your dealer for the right paint for your purpose and exactly

for each pattern.

follow directions for applying.

DEAR JANE JORDAN—I read your column. every day and have decided to see if you can solve my problem for me. I hope you won't think I'm just a silly woman. I am 24 years old and have been married five years. I think that I love my husband, but I can’t get another man off my mind, one whom I went with before I met my husband. He is in my thoughts constantly whether I'm alone or in a crowd. I cdn’t forget him. At night I can’t sleep for thinking about him, and when I see him I get as weak as a rag and just can’t seem to stand up, although I do not show it. My husband is very devoted to me, a good companion and provider. There is no doubt in my mind but what he loves me. Here is what I want to know: Do I love my husband or the other man? I could get the other. man any time I said the word, but I don’t have any intention of doing it. I just want to know. The uncertainty is getting me down. WORRIED.

” 2

Answer—The fact that you.get as weak as a rag when you see a man is not necessarily indicative of love. All jt indicates is physical attraction which, while it is a part of love, is a very perishable product and can exist independently without any of the other more stable qualities that go into a workable relationship. Very few married women escape feeling physically attracted to a man other than the one they married. The majority regard it as a happenstance and ignore it as a more or less trivial occurence, The idea that any one man-can be all in all to a woman, and that no other person created holds -a particle of attraction for her simply is not in accord with reality. It is just that a responsible person realizes that he cannot gratify every passing desire and that some sacrifice is necessary if he is to adjust his life to the culture of the times in which he lives. Apparently you have a good working relationship with your husband and enjoy his love. After five years he may not be as exciting as he used to be. Who is? A new love affair would contain new thrills and gratify your love of conquest. However, it wouldn't be long until the new love bogged down into the same uneventful status of the old. The only way you can keep up the excitement is to keep on changing partners. In this event you would end up with nothing of any lasting value. Why don’t you just regard your feeling as a nuisance and stick to the business of building something permanent?

JANE JORDAN.

Take Proper ( Care Of Vacuum Cleaner

Now that the supply of new vacuum cleaners is limited, your old cleaner, if working, takes on added value. So cherish it. Periodical checks and adjustments by a reliable service man will help to lengthen its life and give you most efficient use.

Intelligent care on your own part|.

is important, too. So don’t neglect emptying the dust bag after each using—brush out all the clinging dust; don’t expect it to pick up hard particles may damage it; don't wind the electric cord around sharp surfaces

that will cut or fray the covering, step on cord, drag along floor, or

disconnect by pulling on cord instead of grasping plug. Do store your cleaner in a proper place—where it will be protected from dust, as well as knocks.

tle or no contact. Nope, Mrs. “Buck Private” is in a class by herself, and a long, long way from home. Her car is the local bus-in-miniature, and in most cases, that's a luxury reserved for rainy days. I can’t say we don't envy a little the red-plated officers’ cars as they speed to town, leaving a film of fine red dust on our lovely suede shoes we -bought with loving care in Brooklyn or Boston a hundreds years ago.

Window-Shopping Inexpensive

- Still we plod on, down Hay st, into the city itself. The usual procedure is to drop one’s letters at the postoffice, then to cross the street to the five-and-ten, to idle, and “just looking, thank you,” rarely doing any shopping. : Money, we've long since learned, is a mysterious item that keeps disappearing alarmingly, so we guard the little we have, jealously, watching every penny. Since our “home” is a room only, we can do no cooking, and have to eat out. Now, restaurants are fine, once in a while, but morning, noon and night they begin to take on a different character. You know, things have come to the point where I can tell where you ate if you just tell me what. Sure, it’s a crazy existence, but I love it.” Bill needed me and I needed him, and now that we're together, we’ll work it out somehow. To coin some corn—“It’s simple, once you know how.”

Morale Builders

And, another thing—maybe we don’t roll bandages, or sell bonds —but we gals most certainly have been drafted as personal morale officers. . When your weary soldier comes home, all in and not ths Handsome-Man-I-Married, even if your own feet feel as though they're worn down to the knees, it’s up to you to look fresh and vivacious. If you don’t, you'll soon be hearing all about his long, terrible day (Bill's in his second year and now has a desk job) and if he’s in a particularly nasty frame of mind, he'll say he thinks you're getting fat (which, as you know, is a perpetual thorn in the female side.) So, to avoid explosions, it’s best to get his mind off the post, so you trot him to town (a mile and a half, on the hoof) where there is always something doing at the various USO’s.

Can’t Wait for Victory

But if it’s to be just a plain social evening, we gals sit around, like old cronies, reminiscing about the shows we saw, the dances we danced, and

stainless vanishing cream.

H calth— Try Varying Hot Weather

Beverages

Buttermilk and Fruit Juices Suggested

By JEAN STAFFORD Science Service Writer

riety in hot weather thirst quenchers, try buttermilk. It is a good all-year-round beverage on the

makes it & more effective thirst quencher than many others. Buttermilk is about as rich as sweet milk in the percentage of protein, which is tissue-building material for the body. In addition, it . contains milk sugar and minerals, especially calcium which helps to build .bones and teeth. It has less fat and fewer calories than sweet milk, a point to remember if you are trying to lose or to gain weight. Vegetable juices make another good hot weather beverage. Besides that standby, tomato juice, you can get preparations made of mixed vegetable juices. The thrifty housewife will mix her own, using the water in which she cooks vegetables. H e a'l t h-conscious housewives, knowing this vegetable liquor contains some of the vitamins and minerals originally in the vegetables, use it for soups and gravies in winter. In summer it can be flavored and chilled for an appetizing cocktail. 2 2 ” FRUIT JUICES are healthful beverages at any season because they also contain vitamins and minerals. If you mix a naturally sweet one with a sour one, you can save sugar. Remember, too, that the sweeter the drink, the less it will quench your thirst. Fruit juices, especially the citrus fruit juices, acquire fresh importance as hot weather beverages, says a research announcement. Vitamin C, which they supply abundantly, helps to ward off heat prostration,

also suggests that an extra glass of tomato juice would be good in hot weather, since this is another good source of vitamin C.

Peaches on Top

Fresh peaches are in season. Use them in as many ways as you can while they are inexpensive and at their best. Add crushed fresh peaches to hard sauce for a purring topping. A drop of almond extract accents peach flavor.
