Home Maker VS.. Housekeeper.
By RUTH BRONTON.

We so often hear it said Of a woman.
" What a lovely housekeeper she is! " and,
knowing more OF that house Of which she is
the keeper. we sigh with regret that she Is
not a homemaker as well.
The services OF a housekeeper may be
hired-e1ceIent serv!ces-and she will see
that all requisite busting and catering are
faithfully done according TO contract. but
the homemaker's talent is one called forth
and exercised solely by love Of those for
whose happiness the home exists. and the
mere making OF things spick and span is al
ways secondary and subservient to the higher
needs Of the household
The wife and mother who is the real home
maker differs from the wife and mother who
IS above all things, the good housekeeper
Just as comfort differs from discomfort.
The most untutored Nora is equal to max
ing fetiches OF scrubb,ng brushes and
brooms and to considering a frequent up
heaval OF furniture and rugs as indisputable
evidence of vaunted good housekeeping; but
il is the woman Of different and finer percep-
tons who sets up a higher home deity than
a feather duster, though the maker OF the
ideal home Is by no means Indifferent to order
and cleanliness, which are conditions abso-
lutely essential to the enjoyment Of the
homes benefits.

the lesser for the greater; who have no sense
of proportion as to what constitutes the

without fear in her heart and with clear
head.
We all want to sail straight to the port Of
millionaredom II everything needed was to
choose a stream and embark on 1t, life would,
indeed, be easy sailing. Rocks rarely lie
near the dock; It is not the weighing Of anchor
that is dangerous. A clever steerer and
strong oar, with no leaks in the craft, are
essential to avert shipwreck-
Disaster comes because most girls fail to
make allowances for adverse winds. 1t is
easy to ina gine plain sailing. hard t. find Il.
II you start business life with the notion
that the wind will always be with you. you
will re on the rocks before you know it.
What $ the first thing you would do II you
are thinking If going on the water by your
self? II you are sensible the first question
would be: Is it safe? Am l fitted TO row my
own boat? Until my knowledge and skill
are greater should not hunt a captain?
1t is so foolhardy for the unframed to seek
70 sail her own boat. What would you think
of a navy which made a man an admiral be-
fore he knew even a midshipman's duties?
Why is 1t that business alone Is flooded with
half equipped. often total y unseaworthy
craft? No wonder so many are swamped
Remember those winds against you and be
content 10 make a start humbly. Better be
the insignificant deck hand with a chance to
work up than a captain who is in funk "
when the head winds rise.
Then make sure Of your stream. Not all
Iimpid waters lead to the desired goal. Don't
embark until you know where you are going;
that Is. unless you are ambitious enough 10
paddle around in back waters all your life
The stream that makes for the sea may not
be so safe but 1t has far more to offer.
Many a girl mikes her course badly. She
sets herself q goal her boat never can reach,
however hard she tugs at the oar. AS well

Etiquette for Informal Affairs.
By ELIZABETH VAN RENSSELAER,.

Cultivate uniformity in your style OF play;
in making and passing. do not hurry or hes!-
tate; try always TO use the same formula OF
words, and do not call attention TO the
score after the cards have been dealt
A player should not emphasize any play Of
her own or show pleasure or displeasure at
any other play.
The dealers partner should not call at
teu:ion TO the score nor TO any card or csrds
that she or the other players hold. Neither
should she leave her seat for the purpose OF
watching her partners play.
When there IS distribution Of cards that Is
out Of the ordinary no remarks Of any kind
should be made.
Il is frequently most difficult to refrain
from showing any signs Of pleasure at the
accomplishment Of a desired purpose, but
unless you want TO aggrsvate your adver-
saries I advise you to retain a sphinxlIke
expression and silence.
Do not deliberately exasperate your sd-
versaries by confding to your partner that
your success was due to an i'll judged play
Of the opponent.
1t is in bad taste to complain Of poor cards
as you imply that your opponents profit by
your weak hands and not by their skillful
playing.
Experienced players rarely criticise unless
asked to do so; II is usually the beginner who
offers a great deal Of unwelcome advice.
Even between friends It Is usually unsafe to
Criticise and with mere acquaintances such
comments are unpardonably rude.
A safe rule for the card player who wants
to keep the good will Of the other players at
his table is " Criticise not at all" When one
cannot say something pleasant it is wise to
say nothing and even when an opinion is
asked it is sometimes best not to respond.
A call within a month after the affair should
be made on the woman who gives the card
party.

line below. Ignorance Of this and the use Of

II the invitation has been accepted the
guest should allow nothing to interfere with
her punctuaIity. She should remember that
her lateness retards the pleasure Of others
by preventing their playing, a rudeness which
usually annoys them and irritates the host
ess.
From the instant a woman seats herself
at a card table she must be determined TO be
polite, whatever difficult circumstances may
arise to irri;ate her. The wise hostess makes
it a point so to seat her guests to have
those whose game is about equal at the same
table. 1t is friEhtfully irritating TO an expert
player to find herself with an inexperienced,
slow partner. but when she does she should
remember to be always courteous and to
make the best OF the situation.
1t is rather unfair for person who is not
sure q the game TO attend a bridge party.
Women take bridge seriously and IT is ex-
Ceedingiy annoying to have to play with a
person who does not seem to comprehend
even the first rules OF the game.
Careless players exasperate the earnest
ones who are interested in the result of the
game by making unforgivable, stupid mis-
takes. forgetting to play until reminded ask
ing periodically what the trump is, dealing
the cards in a careless way that seriously

as that OF bridge. In justice TO inexperienced
players, who by their manner give Informal
