elegant response to the idea.

gymnasium, and one blase

might be great fun to look
on-so she did.

Men s Edge
.OUer Women
Is LeSSened
BY MRS. WALTER FERGUSON.

When I was a little girl used to
wish I had been born a boy. 1t
seemed to me that boys all got the
breaks. They could, for instance,
manage their "hooky afternoons"
so much more successfully. Their
clothes fitted into the tintS Of the
autumn foliage so we'll that they
were like birds protective coloring.
1t made no difference how dirty
they got. They were under no ne
cessity of being little ladies, a hate
full fate.
Later in life. as their legs length
ened, they would stand boldly on
street corners and play ball openly
on any empty lot. They staggered
into barbar shops and leered at one
from behind the shades. They never
had to have their hair put up in
curl papers.
Later still, their fate was even
more glorious. They could go out
into the world and seek a fortune
or throw themselves away on Gig
arets. The wilder they grew and the
| more mothers cautioned against
them. curiousIy enough, the more
fascinating they became and the
more notice they got from every
body.
Reform Made Easy
Not only that, but it was no trick
for them to reform. No depths we're
so low that boy could not climb
back to responsibility. And the
greater his past wickednesS had
been, the greater the acclaim and
the admiration when he settled
down to become a leading citizen.
How we Shivered when we heard
that our church deacon had been
the best poker player in his country
during his callow days
Now, whether am only older and
wiser or whether these masculine
privileges were merely exaggerated
in our minds, I do not know.
suspect the latter, however At any
rate, I do not envy the men. IN
stead now and then I feel a bit
sorry for them.
Pity Replaces Envy
The pathetic efforts of some poor,
bewildered thing to live alone, or
his helplessness before a slip of a
hat check girl, would move the
hardest heart to pity.
A man always has to have a home
made for him, whereas any woman
just by tidying up a bit and sitting
there can create the perfect atnos-
phere of one. Thousands of women
are entirely sufficient and no
man has ever been.
Also, at the risk of upsetting the
calm of certain Cincinnati gentle
man, I shall remind you again that
no man can have a baby. To be
sure, they all insist that they would
never want one. This, however, is
merely a case Of ignorance being
bliss. And in many matters the
ignorance of the male sex is most
profound

Woman S Day
BY ALLENE SIMMER.

There is lots of talk, but not much
proof, I believe, that home life is
declining in America.
Dear, dear, say the critics of the
modern way of living-women don't
bake their bread any more, they
don't know how to make pies, they
don't take pride in stores of linen
like they used to, they buy at delica-
lessons. they give their best efforts
to their jobs, and their homes get by
with lick and promise-what are
we coming to?
Well, granted housekeeping isn't
so ll-absorbing in woman's life
as it used to be, but the home Is
there, just the same.

BY GERTRUDE BROOKS
Written for NEA Service

NEW YORK, Jan. 1.-Two things
enter into the successful decorating
of any room.
First, a careful selection of furni-
ture, furnishings and color scheme
Second, the arrangement Of the
furniture.
The second is co-equal in i'm
portance with the first. Too often,
time and attention are centered in
selecting lovely pieces of furniture
that in themselves are exquisite
but, when not enough care and
thought are given to their ar
rangement, are unsuccessful in the
room they furnish.
Again, sometimes ordinary pieces
arranged with consummate taste for
comfort, may make room a men,
orable spot.
Artistry Plus Comfort
A real achievement in decorating
is q room that gives the person en-
tering it the feeling that that par
ticular room is planned for comfort
and at the same time spells its use.
The furniture should be so Sc
lected and so arranged as to ade-
quately fill the needs of the people
who are to use and occupy the
rooms. One may add to the COM
Portable, adequate and practical plan
all the richness Of color, beauty Of
line and design possible.
But the underlying first principle
must be comfort and practicability,
and arrangement plays a major role.
Planning Arrangement
To get the very best results in a
room, plan the complete arrange
ment on paper. Think out the ex-
act location of the various chairs,
couches, tables and lamps. In do
ing this consider the use to which
the room is to be put, if there is
apt to be one group conversing in
it, usually, or if there are to be
several.
Plan the arrangement according
". All the furniture should be so
arranged that both daytime and
artificial light are pleasant. Tables
should be situated handily for real
use.
1t is very necessary to purchase
every piece when planning a room.
Often it takes months and some
times. years to find just the right
pieces for certain places.
In a home already furnished, some
times the addition of a single piece
or two and a Encouragement will
suffice to give amazingly heightened
comfort and beauty.
Usefulness Comes First
Many people are the happy pos
SCISSORS Of rare, unusual and lovely
pieces of furniture. But never make
the mistake Of placing the unusual,
or the rare, in the rooms where the
family constantly lives.
Never ask guests to occupy pieces
of furniture that are intriguing in
their interest, but really apologies
when it comes to their use. 1t is a
mistake to furnish house with such
methods. Comfort and use should
be the guide first and foremost.
1t is the constant effort of the
really good decorator to do the I'M
usual, the beautiful, and yet stimuli
taneously reflect in all Of her work
the needs of her clients and their
requirements for comfortable living.
Living rooms, for instance, should
welcome guests. A small room
should adequately allow for COM
Portable seating of guests and hos
tess within easy conversational
range.
A large room should be arranged
so that, when full of people. different
groups will be gracefully connected
and yet detached enough to converse
about different subjects without
disturbing others.

This "FreedOn"

Girls rebel at dishwashing and
at household tasks, and their idea
of a break for freedom is to get
away from home, go to the city,
take job and be free.
And what is one Of the first things
they do, after they arrive in the
city? They take a little two-by-
four apartment somewhere, with a
kitchenet of postage stamp size, and
they set up an establishment.
1t may not be the sort of a home
they escaped from, but it is the sort
of a home they want.
And they will manage somehow,
in one of these no-dining room. and
not-much-kitchen apartments, to
set forth a really creditable meal,
even if they did buy the parts and
assemble it rather than build from
the flour and the sugar state.
Probably no city comes in for
more criticism from outsiders, and
gets more credit for breaking up
the home system, than New York.
And yet the amount of cooking
that goes on behind curtains, in
bathrooms, and in little cubby holes.
as we'll as what goes on in the small
kitchenet apartments, is unbeliev-
able to an outsider.

Family Menu
BY SISTER MARY,

With the "coId' season upon us,
many mothers are wondering if it
really matters what the small cold
sufferer eats.
AS soon as cold appears in a
child, his temperature should be
determined. This definitely in
forms a mother just how hard
his cold is and she can choose his
diet with the necessary care. Keep
in mind that when the tempera-
ture is above normal, the diet should
be liquid
A liquid diet includes broths
and clear soups Of various kinds
cereal gruels, milk, raw eggs in
combination with milk, fruit
juices, cocoa or other liquid and
cream soups of various kinds.

Light Diet Advisable

If there is no temperature,
light, easily digested diet is advis-
able. Children of school age require
nourishing food, but no meat should
be eaten and very little sugar al
lowed. Vegetables, fruits, eggs and
milk provide varied and adequate
diet for a day or two.
When there is a cough, dry foods
should be avoided. All the semi
solid foods that slip down" easily
are suitable and have no tendency
to jrritate the throat and cause
coughing.
When the cold is "broken," a
diet Of higher than ordinary value
should be supplied to aid the body
in repair and growth. Easily di-
gested fats are especially desirable
at this time.
Use Fuel Foods
Butter, cream, bacon and olive oil
with the continued generous use Of
milk, eggs and fruit seem the ideal
fuel foods. This building-up diet
should continue until all traces of
the cold are gone. 1t will do much
to insure complete and quick recov-
cry and prevent serious after-ef-
fects.
The following light menu for a.
day may help you in planning
others.
Breakfast-Stewed prunes with
plenty Of juice, crisp toast, milk.
Luncheon-Beef broth, lettuce
with French dressing. whole wheat
bread, butter, baked apples, milk.
Dinner-Clear soup, baked pota-
TO, buttered spinach, poacted egg,
creamed celery, orange and grape
salad, milk.
The French dressing for the
luncheon lettuce should be made
with lemon juice and olive oil.
Fruit sherbets, ice cream, Gus
tards, gelatine and whips can be
included in menus planned for the
light, easily digested diet"
