In planning club refreshments for the holidays Nancy and Lois used ingenuity. They said. Guests will be surfeited with sweet things. Why do We have 10 serve lee creams and sweet salads with can- dies and rich, hot chocolate? Let's think of some menus that have zest and tang.". ,..,.,,
 Here are c few they worked out:
 Chef salad, toasted scones, hot mince meat turnovers, cheese and coffee.
 Fried cornmeal mush with ma pie syrup, little sausages, coffee. baked apples.
 Welsh rarebit. picaliili. toast trl- angles, orange and green pepper salad. ,.,., .,
 Assorted cold meat and cheese, rye bread, nuts and raisins. coffee.
 Waffles with chicken n la king, apricot whip and pfeffernusse.
 Escalloped oysters and corn bread sticks, fruit cup and fruit cake.
 The chef salad was q favorite in any town where fresh vegetables could be procured in the market In the winter time.
 Nancy used large amounts of shredded lettuce, tomatoes peeled and cut into sixths. sliced cucum- bers sliced radishes, slivers of green peppers. wafer thin rings of mild onion, slices of hard cooked eggs.

Limbering up your legs and arms Is the first step towards thorough ly relaxing your whole body. But the work you do on your spine Is the most important.
 Lie flat on the floor and just breathe deeply for few seconds. Stretch like Q cat, easily, with no taut, swift motions but just reach ing up and out with your arms, down with your feet. Yawn and yawn again and sigh and complain q little bit, out loud.
 Now begin to stretch you back bone. This is done by holding your hips firmly to the floor and then wriggling your left shoulder and your right alternately up just as far as you can pull them. This pulls your body out of your hips and stretches that poor spine of yours that probably has been ale lowed to settle down on itself or even bow a bit.
 When you have stretched your self as tall as you can be, gently raise your feet up, keep your arms along the floor, holding your body so you won't roll over to one side and try to put your feet over your head.
 If you haven't been doing this for some time or if you are over weight, 1t can't be done the first day. Bring your feet down and massage your back bone by wrig- gling around on it the way cat or puppy does, As a matter of fact, any of the stretching and yawning and slow relaxing your cat does is equally good exercise for you.
 After you have wriggled around on your spine a while, try putting your feet over your head again The chances are that you can come much nearer to doing 1t.
 If you finally can touch the floor, do not exert yourself doing it.. Just see that your backbone from shoulder blades up gets It's share of massage and come on down 10 fiat position again.
 All of these exercises should be done with no strained effort. The maximum good is reduced If you strain, for only when you are re. faxed can your spine get It's full benefit of exercise.

They were twins and they were two and half years old.
 Both were taken to the public nursery" every day. for their mother worked. and from eight until five that was their home--al- most the only home they knew. They have way at these com munity houses Of knowing how to treat children. In. this particular one of the workers had about hundred tiny children a day to look after, and that the tots were happy was instantly apparent to the visitor.
 But in this case something was wrong. Then 1t was explained that one of the little girls was slow and had not developed mentally as well as her sister. She cousdrt do anything for herself.
 Now part of the training In nursery schools (although this was not a "school' but @ day nursery is to allow the children, even those of two, to do many things for themselves. If the average moth CT could see what q two-year-old can do and do happily she would be amazed. For instance, after their maps they reach for their It, tie shoes and stockings (taken off for more comfortable sleep) and put them on themselves. The su- pervisors help fasten garters and tie shoes but many can do even that unassisted.
 Aided Her Sister
 The bright little twin was very servious because she felt the re- sponsibility for her sister. Off she would trot to get her things as well as her own to put on. The slow one did nothing but accept. It took her ages to do anything for herself if she tried at all.
 But the good ladies decided that she could be developed by patience and wisdom. It seemed worth try Ing, at least, because 1t was evil dent what life would hold for her worked twin, now only two and Q half years old. but already burdened with the responsibility Of another.
 So they took time to wait for the slower one. The little moth er'' was told to do nothing for her sister and stood aside while the other child fumbled awkwardly for her stockings. tried to put on her coat. and so on.
 Of course she was helped at first, but gradually even this sup port was removed. And in two months that baby has learned to do all the other can do and Is ever SO much brighter mentally. It was an experiment and turned out to be c miracle.
 I think there Is touching ex- ample here for many mothers.
 Children need not be deficient to be slow and awkward-many lack coordination, that Is all. The other child gradually falls into the habit of doing for her. Kindness and patience and suggestion may reclaim the slow one and surprise the family.

HERE COMES THE WINTER BRIDE
 She Wears a Form-ltted Gown or Youthful Simplicity
By LOAN SAVOY (NEA Service Wrltcr)

Winter weddings are growing quite as smart as those Of June. what with Palm Beach and g0utis-s ern cruises offering themselves as tempting honeymoon destinations.
 The off.white wedding gowns are still high in favor with many young women. There Is something essentially fiattering in white that is not too chalky, too harsh.
 New wedding gowns can have any inspiration they desire for their styling. Most of them, how-i ever. manage to achieve a form 4 fitting body line with their inspira- 4 tional touches showing themselves in the bodice, the sleeves and the veil. s
 Sleeves Arc Lengthy
 The long-sleved wedding gown with more or less low neck Is among the newest. It is admirable for dinner gown afterwards if you want to look at things from a practical point of view. W The last word in newress and loveliness is an ivory velvet wed- ding dress that has modified medfe-f val sleeves, with cuffs below. all attached to tight sleeves cut in one with the bodice.
 This gown has a young Simplicity about 1t. It has dignity. yet there is youth in every line of It. The neck is a low U. the skirt is form fitting and has a dovetail train that sweeps out to regal length.
 This gown shows the prevailing use of diagonal cut of materials, in the way the side gores curve over the hip and fit snugly until Just at the knees. The bodice is cut with a point that reaches almost to the U neckline.
 This skirt is the new toe-tip length, which is preferred over the dragging on -the-fioor length used last springtime. With the gown, and quite carrying out the spirit of it, is q huge nosegay of garden- las, which make an admirable brid- al bouquet for wintertime.

and Jack came down.
 "Yes." After all. she had done those things, Sue knew. But for Harry's sake Sue couldn't mem ton the command that she had given them to stay away from her house.
 Jnck went to the garage for his car. Sue stood on the veranda, waiting. She couldn't wait in the same room with Corrinne.

they started into town. Were getting lots of doors closed to us, aren't we?" He laughed but Sue caught the thread of worry under the laughter.
