On November 2 the Pocomoke Soc
Ger team went to Ocean City, where
they played game ending in score
less tie. Although no one scored,
there were some thrilling plays
around each teams goal. A shot by
Jess Matthews, Pocomoke's Center,
just missed going through. Fred
Hope, playing at halfback, showed
much improvement, and did a fine
job of breaking up Ocean City's plays.
The game was very interesting to
the spectators.

NOTES FROM THE
POCOMOKE HIGH

On Friday, November 2, Pocomoke
High School Field all team went to
Ocean City to play the fourth county
game of the season. In the first half
of the game the score stood 20, in
favor of Pocomoke. After having a
rest. the Pocomoke girls went in with
a few substitutes and this time it
looked like a new team. The girls ar
ranged themselves in the positions
which Dora Conway (Coach) had
taught them.
Pocomoke's team showed marked
improvement over the last game. Due
to the fine interrogation of the plays
by Louise Duncan during the second
half Of the game, Pocomoke was able
to make more points. The swift pass
work of the forward line-I Gilt, G.
Rantz, B. Walters and F. Small-kept
the ball in the Ocean City territory
during most of the game. AS a re-
suit of the cooperation of the half
backs-S. Levin, M. Coulbourne, B.
Hinman-the game proved success.
The back-field- Miller, Dot Mason,
proved itself capable Of defending the
goal during the few times the ball
was in the Pocomoke territory. The
goal-keeper, E. Mcdaniel, also did
much to prevent Ocean City from
scoring.
The lineup of the teams was as fol-
lows:

The Third Year English Class are
preparing to study the "Sir Roger de
Corerley Papers" To begin with,
Miss Cullen gave the class a short
description of the times in England
when the Spectator was being pub
lished. In the description Of London
we were told about the coffee houses
where most of the men would gather
to gossip and read the newspapers.
In those times, very few could read;
therefore. one member of the group
who could read would tell them of
the events that had taken place in
the neighboring towns.
The entire class found something
about the lives of the authors who
were Joseph Addison and Sir Richard
Steele. The class also learned that
Addison was quiet man, who thought
a greal deal and said little, while
Steele liked to be in group where
he could express his ideas.
From the description that the class
was given, it looks as though all of
the class will enjoy reading these
papers.

one of these intriguing braids.
If you are fortunate enough
to have saved some of your
own hair when you had it
bobbed, then you will have no
trouble at all. For you can
have it made into a braid in
no time.
They're Chic
These plaits are becoming,
not only to the Margaret Sui
lavan type-small and slim
but the tall, heavily built type
as well. Of course height is
more desirable to show off to
advantage any hair bandeau
(although the hair clips, etc,
are vastly becoming to the
short woman, whether she is
fat or thin).
Originally designed for
bobbed hair, these plaits may
nevertheless be worn with long
hair, tucked under the knot in
back. They are very chic, and
should enjoy popularity. We
will be glad to tell you more
about them if you write in.

The story behind these shoes
is that they are American
made at low prices. Everyone
was stressing the "buy-Ameri-
can" idea then, and these shoes
replaced inexpensive imported
shoes, which so many of The
stores were selling.
New Type Leather
This years "roughies' are
priced about as low, are still
made in America, and have mad
their designs improved some
what.
They are of a modern type of
leather called service calf, that
resembles suede but is more
durable.
For Town or Country
The colors are those that will
be worn for sports this spring,
beige, brown and tans, and
some grays too. Some of the
styles have extremely low heels,
others moderately low heels.
All are suitable for golf, walk
ing, country wear, and some will
be smart with your town tweeds.
This years models have new
names, suggestive of the stream
line idea which is due to have
a big run, and of prosperity,
which is the keynote of their
promotion. We have a picture
of a smart girl trying them on,
and we will describe them as
best we can, as they appear in
the photograph.

The child needs vegetables for
growth; to maintain body proc
esSeS: to build bones, teeth,
blood, and other parts of the
body; to stimulate appetite: to
increase resistance to infection.
Every Day
A variety of vegetables should
be given the child. There should
be at least one served daily in
addition to potatoes or rice,
which do not supply the ele-
mentS contained in the green,
leafy kind.
AS a rule, the dark green type,
such as spinach. chard, kale,
beet greens or turnip greens
should be selected.
Vegetables that vary in color,
such as cabbage and lettuce, are
best when dark green. The
lighter greens are less desirable.
In cooking vegetables, try to
avoid destroying their vitamins
and minerals, which are lost by
wrong cooking.
Right Cooking
Vegetables for children should
be cooked only a short time,
just long enough to make them
tender, and without baking
soda. Both long cooking and
soda are destructive to vitamins.
The minerals are easily dis
solved in water so it is best
to use as little water as posi-
BILE in cooking and if any water

Mothers Meeting
Dear Mrs. Beeckman:

Dear Mrs. Beeckman:
I am the new superintendent
of the cradle roll of our church
and I would like to have a
measuring bee to bring the
mothers together to talk about
their little ores. Would it be
better to send a written invita-
tlon or give a personal call to
each mother, asking that she
come and bring her little one?
The superintendent before me
was quite discouraged because
so few mothers came to these
meetings. B,
Under the circumstances. >.
that is, because of the previous
lack of response, I suggest by
all means that you go to see
each mother and thereby make
your invitation an especially
personal one, an. especially hos
pitable and gracious one. The
personal equation" in such a
case is tremendously important,
and you sound so honest and
fine in your wish to serve that
am sure, in your personal
call, you can communicate your
enthusiasm and wish-to-serve so
effectively to these mothers
that they will be delighted to
respond.

that have a thick skin to hold

Greens, such as spinach, can
be cooked without water: The

leaves after washing is enough
If the cooking vessel is tightly

without OdOr
Such vegetables as cabbage
cauliflower and turnips can be
prepared without unpleasant
odors if they are cooked for a
very short time and if the
saucepan is left uncovered dur
ing the cooking. Of course,
plenty of water must then
be used to keep them from
burning. Cut them in small
pieces to hasten the cooking.
Vegetables for children should
be cooked without fat meat.
No vegetable intended for the
Child's table should be fried,
not even potatoes.
Certain raw vegetables, such
as lettuce, cabbage or tomatoes,
may be given freely to a child
over years of age. Be sure,
however, that they are thor
oughly washed before serving
in water known to be safe.
Lettuce or .abbage should be
shredded or chorped. Toma-
toes should be .Jeeled, then quar-
tered or sliced or put through
q sieve.
Home Canned
Canned vegetables may be
substituted for Aresh ones when
the latter are tao expensive and
hard to obtain. Never use
canned vegetables that seem to
be spoiled. Home canned ones
are more likely to be dangerous
than those canned CONNER

In order to eliminate any dis

His Rival Drinks

Dear Miss Fairfax:
The girl I am in love with
has the beautiful name of
Carol. Another man who is
paying her attention is ad-
dicted to heavy drinkin g.
Nearly all her dates with him
are for dances, which leads me
to believe that she prefers his
dancing to mine. I have been
very fond of this girl for at
least three years, while my
deadly rival has way of
flashing on the scene intermit-
tently.
The girl has many good
qualities which make her stand
apart from all the other girls
I've ever known. Why does
she care for a heavy drinker?
Why can't she see how unfor-
tunate it would be if she mar
ried this man? What can 1
do about it? PUZZLED.
If she prefers the heavy
drinkers dancing to yours,
this leads me to suppose he's
a better dancer: has more
aplomb. All women fall for a
ballroom conqueror. wouldn't
it be advisable for you to go
to a good teacher and polish
up your steps a little?
From certain things you have
told me in your letter, and
which I am not revealing, 1
fear you have been too humble
with this young lady. Assert
yourself more; all girls like to
be swept off their feet"
Speaks of the Other Girl as His
Future Wife
Dear Miss Fairfax:
I am in love with a boy who
is two years older than I am,
but when he's around me he
has a nasty way of referring to
another girl, with whom he
goes, as his future wife," He
comes to see me every Sunday
evening, and sometimes other
evenings in between, but saves
Saturday for this future wife"
He has never told me that he
loves me, but he has told other
people that he cared a great
deal. and his conduct toward
me shows he's far from indif-
ferent. Do you think he talks
about this other girl just to
tease me, or to make me jeal-
Gus? I'm a very different type
from this future wife" girl in
every way; she's a smoker and
a drinker.
Would you advise me to start
these things, because it attracts
boys? B. H.
No, deed, my dear, I
shouldn't advise you to take up
smoking and drinking to acquire
a little flimsy popularity. Have
the courage TO be yourself;
don't be an imitator. And of
course. his talk about the
future wife" is only to make
you jealous. Be a good sport;
don't show it irritates you.
You might set up an imagin-
ary future husband" who lives
= at distance and is a person of
fearful fascination.

Arms and the Man
Dear Mrs. Beeckman:

Dear Mrs. Beeckman:
Should a gentleman take a
lady by the elbow and assist her
in crossing the street and up
the curb? My friend insists this
is incorrect and I am supposed
to take his arm when crossing
the street.
This has become a heated
argument, and we would be
pleased to have your opinion.
T.
Either is correct. The man
may offer his arm when he is
assisting her in crossing the
street. Or, as is more usual. the
man may put his hand under
the Woman's elbow as they cross
the street. The thing that
mustn't be done is for the man
to take the woman's arm.
