The division OF the long border line
is part Of the plan worked out for
general operations If that should be-
come necessary. To General Funston's
staff his recommendations were
known but carefully kept secret as
being too vital part of the army plan
for premature publicity. Whether any
one major general will be sent south

by army officers here.
TO Promote Pershing?
The designation OF Brtgadier Gen
eral Pershing as commander of the
new department of New Mexico was
taken here as an indication that his
promotion to a major general is con-
templated- General Pershing already
commands more than a brigade and
the additional troops being sent to
New Mexico will place under him more

~ONE.PIECE7 MEALS.

During the hot weather we Ike
''one-piece" meals. Sometimes a large
glass salad bowl is filled with mix
ture of cold sliced potatoes, hard
boiled eggs, a little onion, olives, Gu
cumbers or other vegetable, and sar-
dimes laid on top. This is put together
with French dressing and boiled
dressing is spread over it. The toun-
dation of the salad may be fish or
chicken, but it is always served on
crisp lettuce and made to look cool and
inviting.
Sometimes a hot dish is preferred,
such as scallop of ham and eggs
combined with cream sauce, macaronl
and cheese and tomatoes or any other
nourishing combination.
If the materials for these one
piece" meals are wisely chosen and
white wheat bread is used they are
as sustaining and wholesome as when
a number of foods are cooked and
served separately, while the amount OF
work TO be done both before and after
serving the meal is very much les
sened. A fruit shOrtcake or fruit and
cake may be served as a second course.

cannot make her realize this She has
been offered a chance TO work in an
Office and she is crazy 70 do the work

months and she doesn't want to. The
position will not remain open and she
must accept it at once if she takes IT,

position she can get another. What
do you think Of this matter?
A MOTHER.
Since your daughter wants to get
TO work let her try it. Work in an
office will be so different from
school work that the change will rest
her. Probably her interest in having
something to do will be far more
beneficial than three months OF va
cation.

MS ELI ZAELTL TLerpSON

Dear Mrs. Thompson: ] am a girl
II years old and | am in love with a
young man. We are not engaged, but
| am sure he loves me, too. He has
just taken up work in another town
and is getting along nicely, but does
not make enough money to get mar
ried.
He writes to me about twice a week.
His letters are not love letters, but he
has a way of saying things that makes
them sound like love letters. One day
when l went in my room l found my
mother reading one of the letters. /
was very much put out and told her
that she had no right to read my mail
unless / gave her permission. She says
she has a right and that she will not
permit me to receive mail that she
cannot read. The boy really says moth
ing that she could object to, but what
he does say | want to keep to my
self. Since | found my mother read
ing that letter she has asked to see
every letter I have received. l have
let her SO far, but it makes me in
dignant and I don't want to. DO
you think it right for her to demand
to see my mail? I am a self-re-
speeding girl ad l consider it an
insult to have to turn over my mail
for inspection, just as though / were
q girl of 16. d. X.
l think your mother is decidedly in
the wrong. Tell her that you con-
slider it an insult to have your mail
inspected. If she still insists upon
reading your mail it would be better
not to object. 1t will not pay to
quarrel with her if a quarrel can be
avoided. In case the boy asks you
to marry him, don't think it would
be unreasonable at all to refuse to let
anyone read your letters.
Dear Mrs. Thompson: I am a
young man II years old and / am go
ing to call on a girl for the first time.
.. % Should l give her my hat or
put it down somewhere?
(2) Should 1 take her a box of
candy?
90 How late should l stay?
"a If we have a hard time talk
ing, would it be all right to ask her
to go to the picture show?

TO MAKE ROSE BEADS, ROSE JAR,
ETC

In answer to numerous requests,
the following directions are given for
making rose beads, rose jars and Tor
drying rose leaves:
Rose Beads-For, one long string
use two and one-half quarts rose pet
ais, one-half teaspoon tincture OF iron
and one-half teaspoon liquid glue or
mucilage. Grind leaves through meat
chopper till very fine Mix all ingre-
dients well together, then roll into
marbles the size of a pea. Lay them
on a soft cushion for three hours, then
put a pin through center and stick
pin in box cover till dry. The rose
dough must be very soft TO roll we'll.
If you cannot finish it the same day,
wrap it in a moist cloth and keep in
a cool place; will keep for week
that way Beads shrink about half
when dry, so remember that in shap-
ing them; the larger the beads the
shorter the string.
Rose Jar-Cover bottom of any jar
with fresh petals of roses and sprin-
kle with SAIL continue till you have
all you want. If you want more
spicy odor, add cloves and cinnamon
between layers of rose leaves. Press
all down firmly in jar. You can use
petals of other flowers il you wish.
low: Put petals into covered jar in
layers one-half inch deep, with liberal
sprinkling of salt between layers. Do
this from day to day as you get your
roses. When you have all you wish,
let stand for 10 or IL days, stirring
we'll every day with a silver fork.
For each half pound of the petal MKT
ure take an ounce Of finely broken
stick cinnamon and an ounce each Of
coarsely powdered allspice and cloves.
Mix we'll and alternate layers of this
with layers of the dried petals This

layer OF the rose leaves In the bottom
of a jar. then a layer OF the last MKT
ure. Continue, adding now and then
Ii drop OF any of the fragrant oils.
such as neroli, rose and bitter al
monds. Some pour cologne over the
jar after 1t is filled. but deodorized
alcohol is better This mixture i'm
proves with age.
