Light and Heavy Foods Give
Variety to Everyday Menu

Written menus to place on the table
a. the beginning of the dinner-still
often used in England-first came into
use over 400 years ago at the home OF
an English nobleman famous for his
lavish and well cooked banquetS. BY
knowing just what fare the cook or
steward had planned for the occasion
the nobleman and his friends might
see how heartily they cared to partakc
of the first courses.
If much-liked dish Of substantial
nature was coming toward the end ct
the meal one would consequently eat
less abundantly of the first courses
But if the later courses were less sub
stantial or not the sort of thing one
cared to eat in abundance than one
took ones fill of the first courses.
In the cleverly planned dinner now
adays no such menu or previous knoWl-
edge of the bill of fare should be need
ed. 1t is the part of the one who plans
the meal to provide not only delicious
meal but one properly balanced. over
lavishness is as much a falling as
meagerness. Soup and appetizers should
be served in moderate portions and the
rule that second helping OF these
courses should not be asked for is q
good one.
Some housewives follow the Euro
pean custom of serving crackers and
cheese and fresh fruit as final course
for dinner One may or may not par
take of these additional foods. The
advantage of this custom is that II one
has not had enough to satisfy the APP
petite in the other courses then one
may do so with this final DIPLOMA
course. But as no special preparations
need to be made in serving cheese
waters and fruit one feels no compunc-
tions about eating them If already sat-
iSfied.
You may see no advantage in the
custom of serving the fruit course at
the end of dinner. but If there are IL
dividuals in your family, active young
folk who really need more food, you
should not have second helping OF
! dessert to offer. Instead when the ape
| petite is still not quite satisfied, offel
fruit--or, if you like, bit of crackers
! and cheese.

Your Baby and Mine
BY MYRTLE MEYER ELDRED.

The lecturer had just closed the door,
leaving behind him a sadly discom-
fitted set of mothers. For one hour he
had lectured them stirringly on the
necessity for the sex education of their
children, and while he was speaking
each had inwardly admitted that his
arguments sounded logical and reason
able. But with the first step of his
departure the reaction had set in.
Their lifelong prejudices, sorely shaken
up, now began to settle back into their
accustomed grooves. But 1t left them
uncomfortable.
Hes absolutely right said Mrs
Taylor. 1T is a perfect sin the way
we close our eyes to our cfildrens need
for education from us, not from out
:siders. We think because we say there
isn't any adolescent problem that there
isn't any. Most of us are too blind
