Dear Mrs. Thompson: My friend is
girl 10. working In a department
store, earning S. per week. She is
Jewish girl and has been going steady
with Gentle fellow and Of course her
parents, very strict Jews, object to it.
She says she could not be happy
without him. She wants to leave
home and board. He said If she ever
needed anything he would help her
out. Now you might think he does
not mean we'll with her, but he does,
for he is a gentleman and comes from
very nice people who are fond Of the
girl.
Do you think il would be wrong for
her to accept assistance from him?
Can her parents compel her to stay
at home? Would it do any good to
report her brother for striking her?
NJ.
The girl is old enough to marry
without her parents consent, accord
ing to the laws OF this country. II
the man loves her and wishes to pro-
tect her, he should marry her and
not offer her assistance without mar
rage. She cannot honorably accept
help from him if she leaves her par
ents, and she is not making enough
money TO support herself. If the
the young man doesn't want to marry
her and so stop all the trouble, she
had better give him up and stay with
her parents. She need not go with
any other man if she does not want to.
Her parents cannot compel her to
stay at home, for she is of legal age.
! do not think it would help matters
any to report the brother for striking
her.
Dear Mrs. Thompson: We are two
girls, II and 16 years of age.
% Are we too young to have nice
boy friends come to visit US once in
a while? We mean by boy friends, "
the boys living near US who 90 to
school with us, not what you call
"sweethearts."
(2) Should we correspond with boys

our parents object?

many of the ideas and practices pre-
valent in Europe, especially in France
and Italy.
In the first place, We must change
the customs in our markets by ere
ating a demand which the market
men will meet for supplies sold in
small quantities for small families.
Why is it that if we have an Invalid
in the home for whom we want q
bit of chicken, we have to buy a
whole chicken and to feed the fam
we can afford? Because we have no
way of buying just what we need, but
we buy what gives the marketman
the least trouble and the least risk.
OF course if we all bought only what
We need, there is also no risk for the
marketman, for he will usually have
some customers who desire The choic-
est and some who must limit their
desires to the cheapest, and in any
case he would soon adjust i:is pur-
chases to the demands.
| This is very true where business
women or girls are doing their own
cooking. If they could occasionally
buy the neck aid wings of chicken,
cook these slowly into delicious broth
and then with the addition of rice,
carrots, peas, etc, an entire meal
would be ready for only a few cents
with good food value at the same time
A small family could also be fed more
economically if they could buy just
the cuts they could afford, not always
including in that purchase the most
expensive cuts also.
DELICATn SOUP.
Material - Chicken wings, two;
chicken feet, two; neck, one; water
one and one-half quarts; rice, three
tablespoons; onion, one-fourth cup;
turnip, one-fourth cup; carrot, one
fourth cup; celery, one-fourth cup;
parsley, salt, pepper.
Directions-Scald, scrape and clear
the feet of the chicken, also wings ant
neck; put them into the soup kettle
with the given amount of water, bring
to the boiling point and simmer very
slowly for one hour. Clean and GU
the vegetables in dice and add those

until the rice is tender. All of thi

During 160S Sir Christopher Newport while cruising of the coast of North Carolina ran into very severe storm. After being tossed about on the ocean for several days his ship WAS driven by the wind into Chesapeake bay and landed at a certain "point." Exhausted by his struggle with the ocean he found comfort at last within this har- hor" and he gave it the name of "Point Comfort"
 After some years other places along the Atlantic seaboard were given the same name, and as the Virginia point was the oldest the word "old" was added to distin- g,ish it from the others.-Ladies Home Journal.
