1t is very often one Of contempt.
The healthy child does not often
make comparisons between himself

To the child We elders seem a
clumsy, lazy, stupid lot-devoid of in.

suits-bad tempered, unreasonable,
often cruel and generally unreliable.
Then do you mean to say that our
children don't love us?" shrieks an
indignant chrous of parents. "Why

very shadow Of her mother And yet
you say they don't love u.s."
No. I'm not saying that they don't
love you. There is no love more in
tense than child's love for his par.
ents and only the greater cruelty can
ALLEVIATE it. But that love is not based
on respect nor gratitude nor admira.
ton. 1t is based on need. 1t is the
clinging Of the little animal to the
protecting element. 1t is one with his
need of food and warmth. Only very
slowly does conscious, intelligent love
grow in the child. That youthful love
which so delights us is second cousin
to his yearning for n doughnut.

Some Pointers
on Manners
BY Mrs. Beecknan
Accompanying the Bride.

Accompanying the Bride.
Dear Mrs. Beeckman
Does the bridegroom accompany the
bride to church?
.. Who pays for the flowers?
8. I was given a surprise shower
at a girl friends home, and to show
i6s appreciation my fiance woulS
like to write few words Of thanks,
but does not know how to compose 1t.
Would you kindly help US out in this,
too? MAE.
No. This is not good form. The
bride goes to the church with her
father or whoever is to give her in
marriage. The bridegroom goes to
church with his best man.
2. The bridegroom sends the bridal
bouquet to his bride. of course, and the
bride or her family usually supply
the bouquets for the attendants of the
bride. Sometimes the groom asks for
this privilege.
3. There is no reason for the
bridegroom to do this, since shower
is for the bride and is in courtesy to
her. However, he sounds like a de-
lightful bridegroom USUALLY they want
to get out of writing letters y and If
he wishes to express his thanks. too,
this might suggest note:
Dear Dorothy:
you made Belle so happy by your
lovely shower for her in giving the
shower in her honor that L want to
thank you, too. She is indeed for.
tunate in having such a wonderful
friend as you, and L am proud that
you are sharing your friendship so
that it includes me, too.
"All the charming shower presents
will have an honored place in our
home, but the guest-of-honor place will
always be yours.
BEST wishes to you. Dorothy.
Faithfully yours"

Meditations Of
a Wife
By Helen Rowland

The Passing Of the Vamp.
1.-THE sweet, old-fashioned vamp" is
20 more. She has passed into the dis
card, along with high-button shoes,
Foman's crown Of glory, neglected
wives, hatpins and corsets.
Once upon q time good little wives
knd happy sweethearts dwelt in the
holy fear of vamps, love-pirates and
chorus girls. But that was away back
b the dark ages of the hook-and-eye
period.
The PROFESSIONAL siren no longer
holds all the cards in the love game.
Every girl is a "vamp" in her own
right and her own way these days,
even If she is only wife who con-
eentrates on vamping her own hus-
band with a boudoir cap and q waf-
lie iron.
The working girl no longer looks
debutante going to a tea.
The housewife is no longer a color
less little drudge with wispy hair and
a smudgc on her nose. She looks more
like a chorus girl than chorus girl
herself.
Now that nearly every woman
either bobs her hair or sports a per
manent wave, wears cutey-cutey
clothes, makes study of beauty
creams, and brardishcs a lipstick, you
can't tell n professional yamp from
an amateur nor a sub-deb from
hula-hula girl.
The vamp's occupation, lilo Othel-
los, is gone. 1t has descended from
q speciality into "side line" which
everybody carries. And il one woman
lures another's husband or sweetie
from her, it is at least in fair fight.
The women all over the world have
rebelled against the vamp class and
risen to smite her with her own
weapons. In the love game, it is no
longer case of "the worst woman
wins" but of the best or the cleverest
woman wins.
1t is no longer a matter Of sitting at
home in your year-before-last clothes,
with an unpowdered nose and eyes red
from weeping, trying to hang onto a
mans conscience. It's a case of stand
ing up and fighting for him, or hand
ing him over chcerfully.
And II, in fair battle, any woman
can win a man from you, it is a sign
that he wasn't much Of man, and
the other woman has got the worst OF
the bargain. Tho luck is all yours.
and you are in line for congratuia-
tiors!
You may kill a mans love, freeze
Il. choke il, or throw it away-but
no woman ever lost the real love of
q real man!
The passing Of the vamp has taken
q lot Of the color out Of life-but it
has made the world safe for matri-
monyi

Table Talks
Pies
BY Mildred Kitchen

said I'd give you some hints onf
making pie crust. didn't I? Promise
you won't increase the pie consump-
ton in your family if you are success
full with the method given here l
don't want any digestive disturbances
blamed on to me. But the men of the
nation clamor for pie and If they in-
sist. one might as we'll give them the
best that can be made and between
times teach them moderation in eat
ing all pastries and sweets.
FLAKY PIE CRUST.
For one pie, top and bottom crust.
One and one-half cups flour.
Six level tablespoons shortening
(any kind.
One-half teaspoon salt.
Cut fat into flour and salt, tin all
is thoroughly mixed.
Now comes the secret. Remove TO
your measuring cup about one-fourth
cup of the above mixture.
Wet the part remaining in the bowl
with just enough water to bind 1t to-
gether (about six teaspoons, though
this varies with the moisture contest
of the flour used).
Pat or roll it out onto a lightly
Toured board to about six inches in
diameter. Spread about one-third OF
the part reserved over this and fold
up like an envelope, inclosing all the
dry particles. Roll out again and re-
peat until you have done the folding
process at least three times and have
used up all the reserve.
Proceed as usual, handling as little
as possible. You will see flaky layers
all through, and by this method it Is
nearly impossible to have too much
moisture in our crust, which u the
cause of most tough pastry.
l can sLfely guarantee that II you
never made good pie crust before. you
can by this method. If you have
trouble let me know and I'll try to
help you further.
CARAMEL SYRUP.
Melt one-half cup Of white granu- /
lated sugar in a frying pan till it is
a golden brown. 1t must be stirred =
all the time and none allowed to cdr
benize. Now add one-half cup boil
ing water and cook to thin, syrupy
consistency. Store in bottle and use
as needed.
PINEAPPLE APPLE PIE.
One and one-half cup apple, chopped
fine.
One-half cup grated (shredded) pine.
apple.
Two teaspoons flour.
One-third cup sugar.
One egg.
One-half cup pineapple juice and
one-half cup water.
Mix sugar and flour. Add to boil
ing liquid. When thickened add beat
en- egg. Add fruit. Pour into un-:
baked pie shell. Put lattice on top
made Of half-inch strips Of pastry.
Bake in hot oven.
PUMPKIN PIE.
For one pie:
One and one-hah cups pumpkin.
The canned is very satisfactory.
One-fourth cup sugar.
One-eighth teaspoon salt
One teaspoon cinnamon.
One-half teaspoon ginger.
One egg.
One cup milk.
Mix as for custard. Put into un-
baked crust and bake for five minutes
in a very hot oven, then till custard
is set in a very moderate oven. At.
first 500 degrees and the rest Of the
time 325 degrees.
PERSIMMON CREAM PIE.
Three persimmons.
Two eggs.
Two cups cream OF milk.
One-eishth teaspoon salt
One-half cup sugar.
-Four tablespoons butter.
Put the very ripe persimmons
through a colander. Beat eggs, add
salt and sugar, cream and permis-
mons. Pour into pie crust, put flakes
of the butter on top and bake In
moderate oven till custard is set.

Helpful Hints

A teaspoonful of glycerine added
to each pound of sugar will prevent
scum forming on jam. As the gly-
ccrinc also sweetens, n little more
fruit can be used in proportion to
the sugar.
If clothes must be ironcd soon after
they are dry, use hot water for
sprinkling them. They will damp more
quickly and evenly than when cold
water is used.
