THE SECRET OF
 SUMMER COOKING Light But Satisfying Food to Please Waning
 Appetites WAOM nAV COECIAI c
WARM DAY SPECIALS

Light but satisfying food. is the secret of successful summer cooking. But it must also be food favored with a touch of imagina- ton to tempt languid summer ap- petites.
 The touch of cool, piquant pep permint flavor in this tapioca cream is no less than a culinary inspira- ton. The orange moss with its orange-ivory color and its fresh fruit tang rejoices the eye as well as the palate. Serve one of them some very warm day and watch the family take a renewed inter- est in food.

To my mind, it is a mistake to at
tach money value to all we do. When
Caruso sang for his tiny daughter, he
was expressing his love for her and
his native enjoyment Of the work he
did. Seldom, if ever, has truly great
thing been done by man who did not
find thrill in doing it.
Caruso had interesting hobbies which
he carried on along with the work Of
his career. He collected coins from
different countries. He modelled in clay,
and he drew cartoons. A hobby which
tool a share of his free time was clip
ping articles from newspapers, to paste
| in scrapbooks.
1t seems to me that lie scrapbook
hobby of this famous singer might well
be followed by many persons. Life keeps
going on and on; and many time we
say. "Oh, if I had only saved a certain
article which was printed in the paper
month or so ago!"
Have told you of the public school
tests which indicated that our Corner
any other newspaper feature? The re-
suits pleased me, for day-by-da am

feel are worth saving.
Now that we are in December, not
great distance from Christmas or the
New Year. it is good time to be think

will be, I hope, bigger and better than
ever.
want to thank the readers who were
so kind as to answer my plea for help
about paste recipes. I have testef out
some of the recipes, and have good ideas
to assist in deciding on the "best of all, !"

marching lines. They are in hurry
to get where they are going and any
other idea Is swamped In the rush.

adult soul. The child Of knows no
standards Of any sort. He hears words,
he sees gestures, he undergoes priva-
ton and captivity in the school room

nights valiantly for his freedom. He
is bent on getting first-hand informa-
ton about the world and all that dwell
therein and anybody who gets in the
way has to answer for 1t.
What's to be done about It? Grown
ups are weary Of the struggle to make
both ends meet. They must work hard
for their daily bread and at the same
time have energy to spare for the rear

inspiration Of their lives. Home and
the labor that maintains 1t are for one

long, and the utter lack of understand

Under the conditions, the best thing
for us to do Is to set our mental
attitudes in the most practical fashion
and accept what we cannot alter.
Think about these children. They are
fine. healthy, aspiring spirits. They
have no intention to do harm or give
trouble. They simply do not under
stand the ways of grown-up people
and until they do they suffer as much
as we do. They are not clean. They
are not nice in their ways. They are
not polite. They are direct and hon.
est In their expressions. They are anx-

things, the circumstances or the people
that we fear. They are feeling their
way where once we felt ours. They do
not see what is very clear to us.
Then. If we make allowances for
them, II we teach and teach and en-
courage and praise and punish In un-
derstanding and affection, we in time
come through fairly well. It is better
to give up trying to deceive the neigh
bors and friends into thinking that
this. our child. Is mannerly. thoughtful,
responsible, and delight to the heart
Of his mother. It Is best to accept him
as an uniformed, unframed adventurer
who will, with luck. and time, and
care. arrive at his destination without
wrecking the outfit. If you can do

Young Beauty Seekers.

" VERY girl wants to be as good
looking as she can, but nova
days there seem to be so many
indispensable beauty aids adver-
tised that 1t Is difficult to know
which are really necessary and whlcn
are not. Young girls are likely to be
misled into believing that beauty. de-
pends on the use Of certain BRANDS OF
cosmetics. AS matter OF fact, 1t Is
not SO much the toilet articles you buy
that bring out your beauty but 1t Is the
things you do or don't DO that count
most. The simplest beauty aids, plus
correct hygienic habits, are all that a
healthy girl needs to give her a clear
skin, glossy hair and bright eyes.
Most girls have good intentions In re-
gard to their personal grooming. but 1t
is so easy to forget some of the really
important parts Of the beauty program.
So am listing below few hints which
will help you make the most OF your
looks and prevent you from making mis-
takes that will cause serious problems
later
First. Be sure that your face is
cleansed with soap and warm water at
least once day. Never 60 to bed with
any trace of makeup on your face. II
you do you will have enlarged pores
and blackheads. Don't forget that be-
sides a thorough daily cleansing your
veniently supplied by alternate hot and
cold rinses. Always finish with a cold
rinse. II you already have blackheads
and enlarged pores, use the soap and
water twice q day. Remove the black
heads, q few at time every day until
all are gone, then keep trem away by
cleasing and stimulating the skin. My
leaflets on "Milady's Beauty Program"
and Corrective Treatments for Black
heads and Pimples" give simple treat
ments for keeping the complexion clear.
I shall gladly mail copies to readers who
send me q request together with self
addressed envelope bearing q 3-cent
stamp
Second. Give your scalp a thorough
massage for 10 minutes every day. Di-
vide the time between morning and eve
ming. If you wish, but be sure to spend
the full 10 minutes at this important
beauty rite. Watch the clock. Rest
your elbows on Q table while you mas
sage If your arms become tired. Brush
your hair thoroughly, too, dividing 1t
into small strands and brushing each
on all sides. These simple treatments
viii give you healthy, glossy hair with
out any expense. II you have q per-
manent wave be sure to oil the ends
every day.
Third. Don't forget that correct diet
underlies good health and q clear skin.
Plan o well-balanced diet including
plenty of fresh fruits and leafy vege-
ahles Drink eight glassfuls Of water
every day. Few people drink enough
water.
Fourth. Take enough outdoor exer-
else. Indoor exercises are good, but
they cannot take the place Of walking
and playing In the fresh air. Outdoor
exercise brings natural color to sallow
skins and brightens duh eyes. It Is one
of the most important Of beauty aids
because II stimulates the whole system.
Fifth. Remember that personal

utmost signifcance to Sour partner.
For instance, you have bid heart on
sR; a,s. Azxo Al zK1o.x 6i Ri' kt. kt
and your partners surprising response
is three hearts. Now you should take
little time to plan your bidding so as
not to miss a grand slam II that Is
going to be a laydown. Plainly, q small
slam Is a certainty barring first
round ruff or something almost unim-
aginable. You know that your partner
has made his Jump raise on the alb
solute minimum amount Of primary
tricks which permit this bid.
In primary values, he must hold not
less than, and cannot hold more than,
the king queen Of spades and ace of
clubs. Had he also held q flve-card
diamond suit to the queen, would he
not have bid two diamonds or two no
trumps, depending on his distribution?
I would read him for a great distribu-
tional factor for suit play, this being his
reason for giving a jump raise with
only two primary tricks. His hand
would present itself to me as, say:
ass. sR; Kss 5 ssx 81. 81. SS1111
or possibly he holds only four diamonds
and A in clubs. At any rate, this is
really the least he can hold for his bid
from the point of view of the high
cards needed for our slam. Conse-
quently, know that the key card for
grand slam is the queen Of hearts.
I must get my partner to bid seven or
pass six depending on whether he holds
that card. Over three hearts, my
Constructive Rebid Is Three Spades.
My partner now bids four spades,
showing his filters. I am almost sure
he will do this. If he bids three no
trumps or four clubs, 1t will not change
anything. He is marked with the few
high black cards needed to eliminate
all losers in the black suits. Whatever
he bids my next bid is six hearts. My
deliberate refusal to make further use
of leeway bidding in either or both
minor suits tells him that do not need
any further information about any of
suit.
Having already bid the full value Of
his hand very amply, he must pass the
six bid with the hand given him above.
But If his heart holding were headed
by the queen, he should now bid seven
hearts. Plainly that is the key card
since I have bid six without knowing
that he has it and after purposely
brushing aside any attempt to discover
whether he can raise either minor suit.

Except for the time they are being

hand, including some rather unusual
features, do not hesitate to rebid in an
unusual manner if you can see good
reasons for doing so. This is especially
the case when you have to get to your

WARMER BROWNS BOY had had

l"ARMER BROWNS BOY had had
- q lot Of pleasure In preparing
what he called q cafeteria for
i his feathered friends. You
know, cafeteria Is an eating
place where the patrons help them
selves. This cafeteria for feathered
folk was broad shelf the full width
Of, and attached to, the sill Of one Of
the lower windows Of Farmer Browns
house. At one end had been fastened
Q wire holder for crushed peanut meats.
At the other end was q little green
hemlock tree about two feet high. A
which was tied q piece Of suet.
Every morning Farmer Browns Boy
nlled the peanut holder with crushed
peanut meats. On the shelf he scat
tered sunhower seeds, hemp seeds
cracked corn, mixed bird seed which
he had bought at q store, and some
times dry bread crumbs and pieces of
doughnut. No sooner would he turn
away than the first Of his guests would
arrive. Usually this was Tommy Tit
the Chickadee, than whom no more
fearless mite wears feathers. Tommy
would make straight for the peanut
holder, pull out q bit Of nut and f1y
20 the nearest tree or bush to eat It.
Yank Yank the Nuthatch would take
,, his place, clinging to the holder, head
down, while he pulled out the biggest
piece Of nut he could get hold Of Then
he, too, would fly OF to eat it or tuck
it under bit of bark or in a crack in q
tree.
BY the time he got back for another
bit Sammy Jay usually was there
Then Yank Yank and Tommy Tit and
any others who had come for breakfast
had to wait until Sammy had finished
his meal. Sammy didn't like that pea
nut holder. He didn't like having to
pick out those tiny pieces Of nut one
at q time. In the first place, he had
to eat them right then and there. They
were too small to carry away. No, sir,
he didn't like 1t bit. He said so. He
said 1t q good many times. Before
that holder had been put there the
whole meats had been spread on the
shelf. Then Sammy would greedily
stun his throat full, five or six meats
at time, carry them of and hide
them, and be back for more within q
minute or two. He would keep this
up until no peanuts were left. Now
he had to be satisfied with what he
could eat and take sundower seeds to
hide. But he didn't like these as well
as peanuts and took only a few.
Tommy Tit and Yank Yank liked
peanuts quite as well as he did, and
now they got their share. They varied
their bill of fare with sunhower seeds,

FISH by the name Of Lota and
~ called lake lawyer has every
~ indication Of being interesting.
Throughout nature you viii
find that where o tree, flower.
bird, animal or fish has many names,
1t is likely to have q wide distribution
and unusual attributes.
The burbot Is one Of two known
species Of hake to be found In our
waters and the only fresh-water member
Of the Goldfish family to be found there.
The lake lawyer has European cousin
by the name of lota lota, who Is q
dweller of the lakes of Northern Europe
and Siberia. In the latter country the
skins are used In the windows instead
of glass.
Lota and her family are fairly well
distributed in the larger lakes of
Canada and the Northern United States.
From Maine and New Brunswick to the
headwaters of the Missouri and as far
away as Alaska, they are fairly plenti-
Lakes. They often reach a length of
to- 6 feet and weigh IS much as so
pounds, but the average Is 81 feet
long and 80 pounds in weight.
The burbot has long, slender body,
small head and a perky goatee, hang
ing from his lower lip. The vertical
scaly fms and the rounded tail are OUT
lined by black border. The small
scales are imbedded. The color scheme
Of lota is dark olive, marbled heavily
with black, and there Is narrow white
stripe running from the gills to the tip
Of the body.
It Is believed that the burbot spawns
in the Summer and Autumn. The eggs
float about on the water and the tiny
fry, like all deep-water fish, live at the
surface for the first few months of
their lives. They feed on the wee bits
of food to be found floating about
them, and when they are few inches
long they drop to the bottom. Here.
among the eelgress and rockgrass, they
hunt for food and hide from their
enemies. They are very partial to the
shells Of the giant scallops and do not
disturb or annoy the live owners of
the shells. They merely seek the pro-
lection Of the great Jaws and know
their pursuers cannot reach them. When
