SUB ROSA


"Dear Mimi: I have been going with
boy for more than q month, seeing
him twice q week and sometimes more.
He is 20 and am 20. =
HE Is quite the best dancer I know.
He thinks the same Of me. We both
love 10 dance, and that 10 what draws
Us together. Though we enjoy each
others company, that doesn't seem
sufficient for him. He is always trying
to kiss me, and don't like the way he
kisses. It makes me restrain myself,
and then he says don't like him.
tive told him I don't like the way
he kisses me, and he says I'm mean to
him. Last evening. after q wonderful
time, he said It was the last time he
would see me. When I asked him why,
he said he was through with our one
sided love affair. have told him in
all sincerity that like him just loads,
but he argues that If did, loving
would come naturally.
There is q lot of truth in what he
says, but I can't see why, when two
people get along socially so well to-
gether, that the one has to bring
necking into it. I told him last night
that he had an inferiority complex and
was an introvert. I don't know how to
handle him"
It Is refreshing to hear from one with
so sane viewpoint as yours. II there
were more young persons OF your type,
the divorce courts would be lar less
crowded.
There IL no reason why a girl should
be forced to bestow her kisses like post
age stamps upon every boy who shares
an evenings entertainment with her.
The young man you describe Is eW-
IDENTIFY egotistical and cannot conceive
OF any girls preserving neutral atti-
tude where he Is concerned. She must
either love him or hate him. Casual
caresses have blinded him to the mean
ing OF friendship.
He kicks over the pot Of gold at his
feet, and stumbles on. In his pathetic
standard OF values, he reaches for
empty rainbows-the fleeting entertain
ment Of q petting party-rather than
the pot Of gold Of sincere regard.
He does not realize that kisses easily
won are as easily loSt-that heart so
freely accessible has its iatchstring out
for every conner.
He won't realize It, perhaps, until he
has married the type Of girl he would
force you to become-and then IL will
be too late.
Maintain the stand you have taken.
You are not alone. Some day you will
meet a young man who Is seeking a
girl like you. Until then, hold the at
tentions of boys like this one as lightly
as they are given, for without an &C.
companying proposal of marriage all
the protestations of devotion In the
world mean nothing.
Il you wish help with your problems,
write to the author.

How the Joneses Live.

It Is altogether human to be curious
about how our next-door neighbors
live. It Is not Just matter of curl
osity either. Few of US have not had
the suspicion that perhaps Mrs. Jones
manages things better, or gets more for
her money.
FOR q long while Il was customary
to consider the worknen's family as
one whose problems were different be-
cause Of lower means. As Q matter
of fact, all Of US have workingmen
in our families, and our problems are
strangely alike.
The Federal Bureau Of Labor Sta
tistics has just made survey of
100 workingmen's families In o large
manufacturing city. II was shown
that demands for home comforts had
increased materially.
Today the bathtub and radio are, no
signs Of caste, because every one has
them. Even the automobile, once a
symbol Of wealth or comfortable means,
Is now owned by ~ out Of 100 working
mems families.
Since pre-wAr times we have been
spending less Of our incomes on food
and more on rent, II you wish to know
where the money goes.
Before the war more than two-f1fths
Of our incomes were spent on food.
while today third sufhces. Housing
before the war accounted for only
about q sixth Of our expenses, while
today It takes more than fifth Of
our incomes. Clothing costs today
slightly less than 1t did before the
war, much to the surprise of more than
few, we win wager.
Fuel and light cost about the same,
be exact, and sundries account for q
quarter instead Of b NTH Of our living
costs. OF the 100 families studied So
owned radios and all had bathtubs.
The average income was tl,711.87.

OUR CHILDREN
By ANGELO PATRI.

care are wasted unless the child has
good nights sleep every night.
What, then, Is to be done with this
bed hater, who fights every night against
going to rest? The best way is to begin
with rcutined day. An hour Is set for
rising, for. every occupation. OF the day
and for bedtime, so that 1t becomes q
matter Of course habit. That taxes
q long time to establish, and one must
be very persistent and very patient about
establishing the routine.
Try to make bedtime pleasant. Begin
some time before to prepare the child's
body and mindAfor sleep. Slow down all
activities and let the house be quiet.
Not still quiet, but rather the absence
Of stimulating noises. Radios, singing,
dancing, loud voices, boisterous games
must. no By the board. .The. hour before
bedtime must be rather quiet hour.
A bath Is the first step. Warm water,
q gentle drying, powdering, fresh night
clothes, and then rest In bathrobe and
slippers while . story. or talk. or re-
q dreamy planning Of some happiness
to come. IS good preparation for sleep.
Then into bed. lights out. windows open
and quiet.
II Q child Is likely to wake up IN q
fright, place a light on the head Of his
bed 50 that he can turn the light on
instantly. The fact that the light Is
there, that he can use it any time, gives
him courage, and II he falls asleep feel
ing content and competent, he win be
likely TO sleep well.
It Is useless 70 force o child not to
be afraid, to 60 to bed in the dark, to
90 to bed alone, II he says he Is afraid.
Try to discover the cause Of the fear
and remove that. Plan for bedtime. A
happy child sleeps well. It Is the un-
happy, unhealthy child who Is wakeful.
The bed hater may be, and usually Is,
healthy. All he needs Is the formation
Of the habit, and that 10 o matter Of
patience and persistence. =.

FOOD PROBLEMS
Bx SALLY MoNRoE.
From South Africa.

South African cookery resembles our
own characteristic American cookery in
that it has an English foundation with
contributions from other European coun-
tries. In South Africa this secondary
influence is mainly Dutch. Then there
are dishes based on old native dishes,
Just as in this country We first learned
to make succotash from the Indians.
Here Is q recipe for brood khutjes--
bread dumplings-which Is said to be
an old Dutch dish. It calls for three
slices of white bread, . pint Of meat
broth, 0 tablespoonful Of butter, two
eggs, teaspoonful Of chopped parsley,
o dash of nutmeg, salt, pepper and
-four. Soak the bread in the broth,
squeeze 1t dry and rub smooth with a
fork or spoon. Heat the butter in a
saucepan, add the bread and mix well
over the fire, adding seasoning to taste.
Take from the fire and let cool. Stir in
the eggs, add parsley and a few grains
of nutmeg and form into balls. Roll
lightly In flour, drop in the boiling meat
broth, and let cook for two or three
Among other South African dishes
are Q meat dish called bobotee, fritters
called poffertjes, savory dish of.boiled
lamb called swartzuir and various sorts
Of fish, bird and vegetable dishes un-
known to other parts Of the world.
