Your Home and You
BY BETSY CALLIsTER,
Where do you put the scraps?

Where do you put the scraps?
Your favorite screen star may
thoughtlessly and charmingly let fall
the torn scraps Of her latest love letter
to the beautiful rug that covers her
beautiful floor. But wouldn't you Just
like to see yourself do that? No? Nor
anybody else in your family, would
you?
It just isn't done. We must care
fully put scraps in waStepaper baskets
And, OF course, that means there must
be Wastepaper baskets conveniently
placed in all rooms where We are
likely to need them. They mustn't all
be alike, either. Each must be chosen
with special regard to the room where
it is to stay.
Each room, excepting the dining
room, must have a waste basket-save,
perhaps, the formal drawing room
Some persons don't have one in the
living room. If there is no desk there
but, then, there is usually a fireplace
and that becomes a repository for
scraps. Or else the wood basket per
forms that duty. Better waste basket
1t Is possible nowadays to buy
waste baskets suitable for any room
Va WIG OCA 1OOIu OI
there are baskets covered with rose or
green or blue MORE silk For the
simpler bed room, such as most of us
have, there are baskets covered with a
figured wall paper or with parchment
paper, decorated with a colored print
or a formal decoration matching that
on the lamp shades. Such scrap bas-
kets-and, of course, they aren't bas-
kets-are likewise for the living room.
For the living room, too, there are
baskets" Of metalEbronze is usually
chosen. That is to say, bronze metal
finish is given to some sort of compo-
Sition basket. There are real baskets,
too, those Of fine Italian straw being
exceedingly desirable. The ordinary
old-fashioned waste basket is not often
used nowadays, for it has big crevices
between the splints or willow work
through which scraps escape to the
floor. And that is just what we don't
want. The finer straws are therefore
better.

A UNIQUE April fools party is
" one in which things are done in
"A a reversed or backward order.
4 u For example, girls wear dresses
backward, that is, with the
front at the back. Small rugs, mat
sizes-are hung on the wall. and pic
lures minus frames are positioned on
hung upside down. A few books and
magazines are on sofas. and chairs,
while cushions are placed on the floor
and on tables. There should be artistic
diSarray rather than confusion. Only
small pictures would be hung upside
down with an occasional one having
its face to the wall and the back pre-
sented to the room. A piece of fancy
paper should be pasted over the plain
paper backing the picture so that the
appearance is pleasing if unusual.
The picture-rugs can be posters, stiff
and sturdy in themselves, or they can
be large pictorial pages from news
papers pasted to cloth to give them
body. These can be lightly pasted to
the boards Of the bare floor or thumb
tackled through large rugs or carpet.
Or large but worthless pictures can be
pasted to the backs of rugs which are
laid wrong side up on the floor.
Backward Bean Bag.-Place three
scrap baskets ranging in size in a grad
uated row. Tally cards, hand mirror,
and bean bags finish the equipment.
Each player in turn stands at
designated distance from the row of
baskets, and holds the hand mirror in
the right hand. Taking each of the
bags in turn with the left hand and
gazing in the mirror to take aim, he
throws bag-ever his shoulder in an
attempt to land it in one of the baskets.
The smallest basket scored 20, the
largest and the other 10. Every time
player looks over his shoulder to take
aim instead of in the mirror his score

WITH a bark looking ike the
I skin of an alligator and
wv bright scarlet berries" at
the tip of the twigs, who
could fail to identify this
interesting tree in the Winter?
In the Spring it is so beautiful that
many people are not willing to leave
it alone and in the Summer and Fall
it does more than its share to beautify
the landscape.
The tree has happy time in the
woods where she crouches beneath the
tall trees and leans out beyond their
shadows to catch the early Spring sun
shine. The dogwood is canny and
thrifty. In the Summer she forms her
buds. The slender-leaf buds do not
show among the little dumpy-1ike box
buds which contain the flowers.
The true flowers of the dogwood are
very inconspicuous; they are small and
greenish yellow. arranged in dense
clusters and surrounded by the large
and petal-like bract. The latter is what
is commonly called the flower These
petal-like bractS are often 4 inches
across.
The leaves are opposite. 3 to inches
long. to 3 inches wide ovate and
pointed. They are bright green above
dIIu SLdyloil DdlC bl6Ch
The bright scarlet berry" or the
fruit, is often y inch long with hard
nutlet and holding from one to two
seeds. Many birds and squirrels seek
these berries" and are responsible for
the tree being established in other To-
cations.
Besides giving pleasure to thousands,
this tree has many other uses. The
wood is in great demand for cotton-mill
machinery, handles and forms. The
wood is so hardy that even wood bear
mgs. hubs, tool handles and wood
carvings are made from it. Being dark
gray. fine grained tough and strong
gives this tree high commercial value.
As an ornamental tree it is in great de-
mand. 1t rarely grows over 40 feet
high and Is rather flat-topped, inclined
to be bushy.
From March until May, before leaves
appear the tree is a thick cloud of
white and sometimes pink blossoms to
the very tip of its twigs. The tiny
dry notch at the tip of the white petal
like bract which gives it such an artis
tic touch is the remains of the Winter
bract which enfolded it while it was
yet bud. When it received the hurry
call of Spring it grew SO fast that the
little scale grew dry, but hung on just
the same.
The insects and the bees hurry to
obtain the nectar that is hidden in the
flower tubes The flowers themselves
fade, but the great flaring white bracts
stay on and this is why We enjoy the
Towering dogwood for SO long a time
Dogwoods suffer from improper prun-
ing. Their flowers are stunted and
crowded. The cutting of sprays from
the dogwood tree would be a blessing
to it and the owner repaid with larger
handsome blossoms and a larger tree
1t is the wanton breaking of large
branches and leaving the tree wounded
which has called forth the storm.
in no other country except ours do we
find the Towering dogwood growing
wild. In Winter the tree is not only
lovely as tree. but its bright clusters
Of red berries cheer the birds on many

Whitefoot Finds Home.

When Whitefoot the Wood Mouse,
sitting on the woodpile outside the
sugar house among the maple trees in
the Green forest, heard ever so family
soft drumming, he squeaked aloud
with relief and delight. No one but
Mrs. Whitefoot could or would drum
like that He could barely hear 1t, but
he knew that she was signaling to him
and that meant that she was alive and
safe. At once he drummed back but
he was drumming on piece OF wood,
and 1t was not very good drum. He
knew by the way Mrs. Whitefoot con-
tinued to drum that she didn't hear
his signals.
At first he couldn't be sure just
where she was. That sound came from
the direction of the sugar house. He
scrambled down from the woodpile and
ran across to the sugar house. 1t
didn't take him an instant to decide
that the drumming was inside that
house There was a crack under the
door and, sitting close to this, he could
hear that drumming plainly. 1t was
inside. There was no doubt about
it. In great excitement. Whitefoot
drummed on the threshold, close to
that crack. Instantly Mrs. Whitefoot
replied and he knew that he had been
heard.
How could he get in there? He ran
all around the sugar house, looking for
a hole big enough for him to squeeze
through and growing more and more
excited. He remembered hole in the
floor he had used once a long time
ago. He crept under the house, but
there was no hole. A piece of board
had been nailed over it. Then he
climbed on the roof. There was no
hole there. Several times he drummed
on the roof to let Mrs. Whitefoot
know where he was He was becoming
discouraged, but he wouldn't give up.
There must be way to get in.
There must be-" he said to himself
over and over again. And by and by
he did find a way in. He found
knothole under the edge of the roof.
1t was the same knothole through
which Chatterer the Red Squirrel had
escaped a few days before. Just as he
poked his head in Mrs. Whitetoot
drummed again. He knew now exactly
where that sound came from. He
didn't stop to drum back. He scram-

The report alarmed certain Senators
and the matter was brought up on the
Senate floor.

so severe that Senator Reed broke in

authorized by the White House to say
that there was no foundation what

Well-rotted COW manure is the

To poach an egg. cover it with

in this way the egg may be easily
digested.
Soup should never be used the
