CLEVER TALK ON BUDGETS"
BEFORE NJ CLUB HERE

Mrs. May Cammack, assistant sec
rotary of the New York Trust Com
pany, gave a most practical and clev-
er talk on Budgets" before the
Woman's Club, at their regular meet
ing, held in the Presbyterian chapel
yesterday afternoon, with the presi-
dent, Mrs. Frank Dorsey, presiding.
Mrs. Cammack, in presenting her
subject, told how important and nee
essary it was to run every home on
a business system. The meaning of
the word economy. said the speaker
is law of the house, so let's all put
our homes under the law. The bud
get which is the plan of living may
be divided into several divisions, tina
first division being investment. In
vest SO that in time of need, you
won't have to worry where you are
going to get the money. Shelter is
another division, under which comes
actual rent you pay, and IL you own
your home, the upkeep of taxes, food
clothing, house operating, and re-
creation.
You may ask now, how can we get
an idea of making budgets, continued
the speaker. Get all your bills and
checks from last year, and arrange
them in piles. one pile for clothes,
one for recreation, food, etc, and
add the bills and you will be quite
surprised to see where the greatest
amount of money has gone, stated
Mrs. Cammack.
See whether you have made an
investment and see how much can
be put aside each year to increase
capital. After the piles are arrang-
ed bring your husband and children
together and find out how the chill
dren are going to be educated. Have
a picture of the future and build for
it. The simplest packing box house
was planned before 1t was made. A
budget is the architects plan said

-Four asty Ways to
Prepare Com Meal
-- By Sister Mary

What could be better than corn
meal mullins on a nippy October
morning? The very sight of them
delights the eye and tickles the
palate.
Corn meal is a heat-produeing
food specially suitable for cold
weather. Hot breads and mullins
made with corn meal are more easily
digested than other hot breads. And
corn meal itself is cheap.
Did you ever taste homemade"
corn meal? After the corn Is husk-
ed the ears are put in the oven to
parch and very slightly brown. One
must keep an eye on them, for after
the corn is heated through it colors
very quickly and burnt corr may be
the result.
If you don't know this little trick
with corn try it. The meal Is de-
licious and has a nutty, different
goodness of flavor impossible to de-
scribe.
Corn Meal Mullins
One-half cup corn meal, Ia cups
flour, 3 tablespoons baking powder, 1
egg, " teaspoon salt, 4 tablespoons
butter, 2 tablespoons gar.
Cream butter and sugar. Add egg

perfectly smooth. Bake in buttered
muffin pans for 25 minutes in a hot
oven.

Corn dodgers are served with ba-
con or sausage. After the meat is
done remove from the hot fat to a
hot platter and keep hot. Drop the
dodgers into a hot fat and bake Is

You can hold the baby quietly on
the lap and let the eXcretions run
down a newspaper folded sharply
in the middle so as to make a
trough into the toilet or a jar. The
baby should not be made to sit up.
When this is over keen him quietly
in bed until the doctor arrives.
If an indiscretion of diet has been
the immediate cause, the emptying
of the bowels will ward off another
attack. If it is something more Sc
rious the doctor will discover it and
tell what is to be done.

There is n o one particular moment in a girls life when the stars arc
more propious for matrmony, as the fortunete Hers say, than another.

Generally speaking, however, I think that the best age
for a girl to marry is between twenty-five and thirty, for by
that time she is mature enough to know her own mind and
have her taste in men formed, and she is still young enough
to be able to adapt herself to the vagaries of a husband.

The Right Age for a Girl to Marry.
Earrings and Woman's Freedom.
Should Wild and Twenty Settle Dow

DEAR MISS DIx-Wnn you please tell me what in your opinion, is
the right age for a girl to marry? JUST ENGAGED.
Answer.

l am opposed to girls marrying while they are '

I am opposed to girls marrying While they arev very young Tor N
reasons. One is that they lack the experience and judgment to pick
a life partner. and they ae much more concerned over whether a
danees well and how he combs his hair than they are over his morals
his ability to make a living. Another reason is that they don't even k
the kind of man they really want, for the youth who ravishes their fa
one day bores them stiff the next. At eighteen and twenty a girls fs

Perth Amboy evening news., 1923-10-16

Another reason why a girl should not marry very young
is because she has not had her play time. She is not ready
to settle down. She is not yet surfeited with admiration.
Her feet still ache for the dance, and she still wants to run
around with the other boys and girls of her age. If she mar
res while this perfectly natural urge for pleasure Is in her
veins, we get the firtatious wife who dishonors herself and
her husband with little affairs that end in the divorce court.
and we have the mother who neglects her babies while she
gads about. The untidy home, the deicatessen dinner, the
unwanted children, the querulous, disconnected wife are, nine
times out of ten, just the outward expression of the woman
who married too Young.

But even the mighty masculine intellect has not entirely
outgrown this weak love of gauds. Observe the tinsel, the
gold and silver embroidery, the shrieklng colors. the flowing

deck themselves when they go forth to parade! Consider the
splendor of the silken, and embroidered, and jeweled regaia

A girl should not marry too young because she is not old enough to
know how o make allowances or the faults and weaknesses of others. It
takes age to teach us that Also all girls are sefcentered, and think the
uniVer revoNes around them. Tfat is no way in which to approach the
matrimonial problem. For most lei entertain a similar idea regarding
themselves, and the dove of peace is not likely to perch o n the roof pole
of the house in which the wife considers herself IT.
On the other hand, domestic felicity depends o a womans adapta-

woman one acquires ways and forms set opinions she is adamant. She
can't adjust herself to a husbands pecularihes. He must either take her
or leave her al she is. She can't change.
