Lieutenant B, my hat is off to you this

of your ideal girl-and I think your idea
of the Keeping Up Hope Club just fine.
Of course, want to be a member, and
I'm glad to see so many others want to
join, too.
Has any one else an ideal girl he'd

Do not plant popcorn near sweet corn,

ing of the two may show up next year.
Cultivate and weed thoroughly.
There are several good varieties, but
perhaps the most common one is known
as rice. The curing Of harvested pop
corn is important. If too moist or top
dry the kernels will not pop well. 1t Is
well not to gather the ears until tho
husks are white and the stalks are be-
ginning to dry. Then husk from the.
standing stalk. and spread out the ears
for curing in a well ventilated but not
heated place. II properly cured, pop
corn gathered in the fall will pop well
by Christmas.

BY MRS. NJ. A. WILSON

fcopwi0at., 1919, by Mrs. NJ 4, WILSON,
A TRIP through the markets affords
a real pleasure to the housewife
Southern produce is reasonably
priced and should be used abun.
dainty.
The approach Of warm weather
brings to us a desire to eliminate
meat from a goodly portion of our
diet. This is mother natures warn
ing that we all should heed. You
know that if a fireman engaged to
care for a set of boilers began to
crowd in the coal on the fires he
would block the draft, therefore
there would not be sufficient ventila-
tion to thoroughly burn the coal.
This would cause waste. He would
lose his job at once. For, you see,
that coal costs money, steam boilers
cost money and those in charge will
not permit careless or inefficient
handling that would result in loss
and ruination of the fire boxes.
Now, the human body may well be
likened to the furnace, and if it is
overloaded with the wrong fuel trou-
bic results. Now that the warm
weather is approaching, do away
with the hot, heavy meat meals in
the evening. Give the family other
attractive foods in their place. This
is not only true for the evening meal,
but also for Sunday. And in order to
make this day a day of rest, it is
necessary to plan and prepare as
much as possible on Saturday.
Here is a suggested menu that
will include three meals on Sunday:
Breakfast
Stewed Rhubarb
Creamed Cod on Toast
Rice Cakes Watercress
Young Onions Radishes
Tomato Appetizer
Baked Shad
Baked Potatoes Asparagus
Cucumber Salad
Banana Tapioca Coffee
Supper
Macaroni au Gratin
Tomato Salad
Orange Shortcake Tea
The market basket will require:
One bunch of rhubarb,
One pound of center cut of dried
cod,
One bunch of 1Vatercrvss,
Three pints of milk,
TtUo punches of young onions,
One bunch of rudishes,
One head of lettuce,
One quart of potatoes,
One bunch of asparagus
One cucumber,
One package of mucdroni,
Three tomatoes,
TaUo bananas,
One orange,
One glass of jelly,
One ttUo-and-one-hulf-pound s1dd
This menu can be purchased fol
less than SO, exclusive of the staples
which are usually in the home. There
will be sufficient left over to prepare
the Monday evening meal, which
may be prepared as follows:

Here's One for the Major

Dear Cynthia-I address these words
to Major Won L. in your care. If you
are what your signature implies I would
very much dislike having you think that
all American girls are either silly or
the kind that wear long face. That
is not true. I am forty and married,
so I think ! know what I am talking
about.
l know at least five girls under the
age of sixteen who know how to give
honest friendship. Also I have some
very good girl friends that might even
interest you.s
There is just one thing in your letter
that l do not like. AS a girl l never
was considered firt, much less a con-
queror of hearts. Any young man that
/ knew before l was married still call
friend. If you are really looking for
honest friendship try giving it. That
the only way know to find it.

Popcorn! Crou Some

Here is a chance for the boys and
girls and also older people to save u
nickel now and then toward thrift
stamp by planting little popcorn in
the garden. A small plot of ground will
produce enough to keep the pepper 60
ing all winter and have a little for the
neighbors.
When the ground has warmed up
plant the seeds either in hills or drills
in rows 80 to SO inches apart. II
planted in hills drop four to five kernels
every 80 inches apart and thin later to
two stalks per hill. If planted in drills
drop two kernels every IL or 10 inches
and later thin to one stalk in each place.

think you are treating the young
man just the way he ought to be treated
and apparently his mother approves Of
your method. Keep right on putting
him back in his place as you have been
doing. cheerfully but firmly, and there
will be no hard feelings on the part
OF his parents and most certainly the
young man himself will respect you far
more than if you permitted him to
throw his arm around you whenever the
mood strikes him. If other girls have
permitted this let him see that here

'nUT in the breakfast room we could
see two big cut glass bowls piled
high with strawberries and in at the
table we were being served from
mountainously high platter OF aspara-
gus--far too much, but there was com :
pany for dinner, so no one said any
thing.
You'd never guess who is back from
France" said mother when the meal
had gotten we'll under way and con-
versation was gayly bounding back and
forth.
'Who?" we asked.
'"The huckster," she answered. He
was back today on his wagon and he
had on little overseas hat
Then mother suddenly realized the
admission she had made and everybody
laughed and acknowledged they had been
wondering about the high piled platter
of asparagus and the strawberries. 1t
seemed she bought everything in sight
and had to serve nearly all her over
seas buy at once in order to be ready
for him the next morning!
Eyes, he's back" she continued,
land can drive just as good a bargain
as ever. He seems just the same as
ever and his only anxiety seems to
build up his trade again."
TT SEEMS to me that one Of the finest
L things about the returned American
soldier is his eagerness to slip back into
the old life. There is so little bragga
docio about him, so little craving for
special attention or Difference to him
because he has been through a fury
the rest of us will never, never, be able
to realize.
I have heard a great deal about the
unrest created in the minds and lives
of our boys by these things they have
been through; how they would chafe at
the old bonds and want to be taking
themselves off to pastures new the
minute they touched the homeland.
But, after all, I don't think this is
proving to be true. Most of the re-
turned soldiers I have had the good

WHILE the women still cling quite

Aside. from the tan shades, there is not
much else but blue worn for street

which at present are much worn are
jade green, turquoise blue, sort OF
lemon yellow and a royal purple to
brighten up the hats and ofttimes the
whole hat will be of one of these colors.
These same colors are used for aft :

organdies are also used in these shades
