The WOnQn':s
Exchange
An Outdoor Party

Games take up so much space that
| cannot give you more than two in
the column. but if you will send me q
self addressed. stamped envelope l will
be glad to inclose a full set of games
that can be played at an outdoor party.
Here are the two games:
Have small flags, flowers. peanuts
etc, according to the season or the
occasion, scattered about the porch or
yard. Let the players form in line and
march in a circle in time to music.
When the music stops, or else at Il
signal everybody makes rush for the
| flags, gathers up as many as possible.
and as soon as the music starts again.
or another signal is given. comes back
to line and resumes the march, holding
| the flags that have been gathered. This
is continued until all the flags have
been gathered up. =
A hand grenade contest is fun. The
hand grenades are really arrows, but
they are thrown like grenades, at q
| target. The players are divided into
divisions. Each member of each divi
| sion has three shots at the target, and
every hit. in the target counts five for
the thrower, and a shot in the center
of the target counts ten. The scoring
is counted by points, and the captain
whose division makes up the larger
count wins.
You need very few decorations for
al outdoor party. If you have no
bushes or flowers that are in bloom
now, gather huge bunches of goldenrod
and milkveed and tie them around the

and add nine quarts Of boiling
water. Cook until rice is soft and
water absorbed. Now put
One and one-hat pounds of dried
beef,
One pint Of onions,
THO ounces OF parsley
through the foodchopper and add to
the rice. Mold into croquettes and
roll in -four. Brown in hot fat and
serve with cream sauce.
Vegetable Salad
Shred fine three large heads of
salad. Place in a bowl and add
One quart of cooked carrots,
One quart Of cooked beets,
One head Of cabbage, chopped
fine,
One quart Of salad dressing,
One and one-hnF cups of riUegGr,

60 with It and so that the dressmaker
or tailor can adapt the cut Of the frock
or suit to those of the gilet. In this
way you can effect a true economy.
And, pray, notice that in many Of the
most interesting gilets and waistcoats
for autumn the collars are high, which
will come as pleasant relief il your
wardrobe is mainly made up of collarless
and low necked models.
At the left in the sketch you will see
6 vest of metal brocade that would GO
very well with n severely tailored suit
of heavy mems serge or cheviot. In
the center is one that would be charming
with duvetyn. 1t is of net trimmed
with lace and is made especially fluffy
and attractive by the frill that extends
from the collar to the belt. At the
right you will see another use of lace
this time with chiffon and ribbon. Either
of these two lace trimmed gilets woult

AGAINST "DolIs"

Dear Cynthia-I've been following
the discussion on "Wby do boys seem
to prefer the painted dolls?' Mr..
Romance wrote that boys prefer them,
not seem to. Wrong. Mr.. Romance
wrong, A man, a real man, who works
hard for living will never want a
Doll" for a wife. Such a man will
not want woman that will throw
his money away on paint. he win not
want woman who will raise his
children wrong. With a doll for a
mother, what morals will his children
have?
If Mr.. Romancer and other chaps
whe find pleasure when they are with
dolls would think n little deeper. they
would no longer find pleasure and
amusement in their company"
Girls of the type of Miss Business
Girl" do not despair. the painted dolls
don't last for they are human LES.
and lies cant last. When the day
will come that rouge and powder will
no longer hide their ugliness, when the
day will come that rouge and powder
will not give them the softness, the
freshness that an unspoiled skin always
has. that will be the day of their
downfall
And then the girls that have been
put aside shall have their vengeance,
for they shall triumph

have found that the average boy
or girl attending school enjoys his
or her midday meal very much if it
is appetizing. both in appearance
and in the food itself. You must
expect to find that both boys and
girls have a very sweet tooth. In
other words, if a choice is left to
them they really prefer a sandwich
and plenty of dessert. So why not
begin a campaign to teach the boys
and girls to select food that will
make them physically fit?
A poster would convey this very
easily. 1t might read: "To study
well, you must eat we'll Today
bean outlets and tomato sauce vii,

dent" Serve small portions of pro
tein food, plenty of the coarse vege'
tables, either as vegetables or salads
and good, inexpensive dessert. Use
cocoa for a hot beverage. Whole
wheat bread, with either nuts, raisins
or butter, will supply the vital min
eral content.

NY dear Mrs. Wilson - Would
YOU kindly publish in your most
interesting column one or two
ways of preparing canned fish
roe? I am certain that it will be
greatly appreciated. A. L. E.
Use canned fish roe in croquettes
and outlets, using the recipe for
cheese outlets and substituting the
fish roe for the cheese. Use creamed
as for Goldfish or creamed and filled
into popover cases.
