FILINGS FOR
SANDWICH

Filings. Of course. must Is
given careful consideration By
those preparing sandwiches Tor
party or picnic. but the In.
portantance Of using good bread
is even greater. according to
Ethel Soners ii an article Ia
Liberty Magazine.
Bread for sandwiches should
be feathery. yet not crumbly;
moist. vet firm. \ Miss somers
points out. .F'or waferthin
sandwiches use only bread day
old. Homemade bread which has
been made with milk Is ideal.
'If the bread IL to be sliced
extremely thin, 1t should Be cut
in the usual way after buttering
and spreading. On the other
hand. il the slices are to Be
nearly a quarter of an inch thick.
IL is more efficient to. cut the
loaf the long way.
..If carefully packed and GOV.
cred tightly with moist cloth, =
the writer continues, many
varieties ok sandwiches may Be
made the day before they are to
Be used. IN such sandwiches
the slices must be well buttered
to prevent the filling from soak
ing into the bread and the fin
isiled sandwiches must be- closely
packed to Intimate drying air

'.Dloth PrOOt1ng Solutions Tested

Some of the best covers of ami

seem that the factory is the
logical place for solutions to be

with clothes moths to use only
such covers as have been factory

Interesting Information Regarding Bed Springs

PerilOus Drifting

DEAR MISS FAIRFAX:
l have been going with a cer-
tain young man year and half.

seems to care for me. He has
often spoken of marriage, but has
never asked me to marry him. l
do not go with other young men
because he asked me not to.
am Is. He is 26. l will appre-
ciate it very much If you will tell
me whether he is serious or just
wasting my time.
ANXIOUS ANNE.
You are drifting perilously near
to one of those vague under
standings" which amount to mis-
understa ndings, Anne, dear.
Why do you not explain to your
friend frankly, the next time you
and he discuss marriage, that it is
unwise for a girl who is not en-
gagged to give all her time and at
tention to any one young man. For
he may not intend to marry her,
and by refusing other invitations
she may discourage the devotion Of
men who might otherwise become
seriously interested. Ask him to
release you from your promise not
to accept other invitations.
Keep him on your list by all
means. But take an active inter-
est in all your friend 9" one of
these days you may indeed wake
up TO the fact that you have been
wasting time.

CLEVERNESS
OF REWARD

The cleverness of the fox is
proverbial and additional proof of
the shrewd antics of this animal
is given in, an explanation Of the
strategy a fox adopts to fool the
hounds who would pursue him
unto death during the popular
hunting season in England. in an
article by Alicia Patterson in this
weeks issue of Liberty Magazine.
ITO scare up fox" writes Miss
Patterson. 1.-The huntsman takes
the hounds TO cover tan inn
penetrable wood and starts cast
ing. If it is good seeming
day a fox is usually brought into
the open and the fun begins.
The fox Is a cagy animal. how
ever. When hounds are after him
he often manages to run until
tired. and then to give the high
sign to one of his buddies. The
other fox takes up the scent
and the unsuspecting hounds fol-
low the newcomer. never realizing
the difference. This goes on until
the exhausted and chagrined
hounds are taken home"

There is a widespread interest
OF. the part of the public in the
possibility of protecting clothing
ind furnishings from moth DAM
age by dipping or spraying the
fabric with so-called 'moth.proof-
ing'' solutions. Long continued
experiments with such solutions
by the Bureau of Entomology of
the United States Department of
Agriculture result in the conclu-
sion that while certain of these
solutions may be considered to
have value for a limited period of
time if properly applied, the
effect is not necessarily perma-
nent nor the protection absolute.
Whatever value -proofing
solutions possess is impaired to
the fabric by thorough wetting,
preferably by immersion. Spray
ing furniture covers or suitings
with weak sprays that merely
dampen the surfaces or pile is II
method that gives no practical re-
suits. Solutions containing ar
senic in any form are not recon-.
mended. They are not only likely
to be dangerous but they have
