seem to have several names. An
other one of them is Elizabeth,
and another one is-but, mercy!
you do not want to hear me tell
all my names, it might take too
much space in the column. So well
just consider that the most impor-

Dear Lone Scout:

the very first war began thousands
Of ages ago.. when some animal
named something like Simia Sa-

bite and beat their fists and raise
a great big fuss and startle all the
other forest natives until they all I
came out and either watched the |
fight, or, when they couldn't stand |

Disguised Feathers

Beautiful plumage comes from
barnyard fowls; in fact, most OF the
plumage used is obtained in this
way and is cleverly camouhaged to
conceal its origin. AS the natural
colors are beautiful without dyeing,
here is a recipe for curling the feath-
ers which will enable you to make
use of them:
First, clean the feathers we'll
where they have been severed from
the body, removing all foreign sub
stances with soft, tepid water. The
length of time required for clean
ing depends upon the condition Of
the pelts, as it may be necessary to
soak the ends of the feathers in the
water a couple Of hours or more.
Then place the wings or pelts in a
covered vessel containing benzine.
Always remember that benzine is
highly inflammable and must not be
used near a fire or open light Of any
kind.
Leave the wings in the liquid for
about three days, when you will
find that the benzine will have dis
solved the fat and grease, prevent
ing decay and the wings will be
ready for use. After removing them
from the benzine lay the wings on
brown paper and the odor OF the
benzine will disappear.

Dear Miss Fairfax, now will you
please tell me your opinion about
dancing? Hoping to see an answer
soon, sincerely your friend,
BLACK EYES.
You are q nice little girl and have
the right idea Personally, see no
sin in dancing. The vulgar persons
have made q sin out of what should
be art. When you are a little older
perhaps mother will change her
mind. You are very young now and
should be conserving your strength
for maturity.
Divided Love.
Dear Miss Fairfax, Omaha Bee:
We are two young girls. We read
your advice every day and take
great interest In It As to our knowl-
edge, we suppose you to be wise
person and very pretty. We wish
to ask a few questions which have
troubled us great deal. There is
a boy who three Of us girls love and
know he loves us, especially two, A
and B, but don't know if he loves
C, as ha says he don't like her. But
what we would like to know is, who
he likes best, A or B? As he seems
to like A somwhat better. He will
tell A things he will not tell B, for
he fears she will tell. He has asked
me (A) what winking meant. And
I said it meant nothing but impo-
likeness, and B and C say 1t means
love. I asked him why he did not
ask B and c and he said he would
not think of asking them. We would
like your advice, as each one says
she is right. Please print in next
weeks issue or we shall not see in
print. Thanking you in advance,
CODY AND KEG.
Winking Is impolite. But should
not worry about boy who divides
his love between so many girlies.
Perhaps he wishes only to be
friends. Had you thought of that?
Love is too serious and too great a
thing to be tossed from pretty curl
to a pair of blue eyes and then on to
raven locks.

The Great Kitchen Game

Nearly every woman is vitality in
terested in the great kitchen game
of making a little go a long ways.
Last week one of my high school
classes was astounded to meet the
problem of making one chicken
serve twenty-one people! The idea
was a staggering one-most of them
asserted vehemently the deed could
not be done. l will grant that it
can not be done practically-but
that one chicken can serve II to IS
people if it is judiciously mingled
with other foods. In any of the
recipes given below one feels he is
really eating chicken, not just sug-
gestion of the bird. The ideas are
good for club and church suppers
particularly.
