of that rut. You need never wor- ry about your ability to master others. You were born for that. Your only problem is to Master Yourself.
 Q. I'm really disgusted = I don't know what to do. What shall I do?-Will my father ever change ?-Please nelp me-.
 A. You should have a clear in- sight to most matters as keeness is an inborn attribute, but you do not understand the difference be- tween tact and frankness. Your father will never change, until you, yourself bring about this change with diplomacy. You are old enough to think for yoruself. You have your life ahead of you. When your father is dead and gone you must rest on your own laurels. Listen to your father, respect his good advice, naturally at his age he does know more than you in some things, but he also has biased opinions, that are of no use to him, and injurious to you. You were born under a sign that means strength of character, but unless you are allowed to use your own Judgment, you become timid and afraid of a dominating will. At your age you require the compan- ionship of fine good girls and boys. How are you ever going to know this world and the people in 1t, if you do not mingle and associate with outsiders That is why so many girls marry disastrously. They have never learned to dis criminate, and like yourself, have never been given the chance to de- velope their own minds and will power. Pick out the best for your associates, take firm stand and stick to it. If your father refuses to give you his permission to see these friends and cannot explain why with a logical reason You should take a definite position and tell him decidely he is wrong, and is spoihng your chances in life. Tell him you mean to have friends and the normal pleasures of de- cent, we'll ordered life. He had his chance and took it. and it is only right you should have yours. o. How soon am to be mar ried, and does my present posi- tion hold any future-and how sOOn?.
 A. All work and no play is not according to good advice--but there is a certain amount of en- ergy and concentration that must be applied to everything worth while. Do not be afraid to make a decision and stick to it, at least give it a chance to materalize. Ma ture has given you the power to organize and execute problems, but sometimes you would rather put your mind on pleasure, and hofn- age, rather than the deeper sides of life. Put sincerity into your work, apply your memory, be open to conviction and you' will gain fav- or and most likely promotion-- Then marriage will be natural conseqnence.

 T don't know whether you are or not. You're running big around so much with Dirk"
 "What do you suggest?" Valeria turned from the mirror, facing her aunt with hostile eyes. "Do you think should meet Dirk openly?"
 Not if you're in your right mind"
 That's what I thought. Do you suppose Peter would like to go on a party at Dirk's apart ment-a party that probably will be breaking up about the time Peters coffee begins percolating ?"
 Her aunt surveyed her, wearily. "Who will be there?"
 "The Forrest Brents, the Liv- ingstons, Grace Hammill, Fred Lancaster, Dudley Fulton, Peg Walter, Dirk and l."
 "A fine lot" her aunt said scornfully. 'Do you think the Kendalls would countenace such people?"
 What I do before I'm Ken- dall is my own affair.""
 You'll probably never be one,- her aunt declared darkly. What if Millicent hears something?"

 Valeria was crazy, running such a risk, going about with Dirk Van Balen who was notorious for his recklessness. his drinking and gambling. Perhaps Peter Kendall was little too straight-laced. No doubt he inherited it from his grandfather. whose keen eyes under their bushy brows had al-

 Mrs Wainwright made her way slowly to bed.
 Valeria slipped out of her evening wrap and into Dirk's arms. After long moment she asked, Where are the others?"
 They'll be along presently. What do we carer"
 II care. I can't afford to be careless"
 Neither can I. You don't SUD- pose my reputation would be whitewashed by being seen about with you"
 valeria laughed. Their eyes met and held in amusement. They understood each other, saw through each other, but that did not lessen the dangerous attrac- tion each held for the other.
 She turned, approving her sur roundings-the fire blazing in the stone fireplace, the ivory paneled walls, the irregular pattern of the floor. forming squares and tri- angles of red and black, the rich red damask at the windows. There were cozy hooks piled with cush- ions in brilliant modernistic pat tern, and charming furniture = old and new. Through the wide doorway Valeria could see the din- ing room table, where silver plat ters heaped with sandwiches and hors d'oeuvres had been placed.
 Presently, she knew, Dirk's dis erect, soft-voiced Chinese servant would appear with excellently blended drinks and ruby-colored wine glasses.
 Lying back in her chair, she ap- praised Dirk with half closed eyes. He was not good-looking. His dark eyes were too small. His features were aquiline. He looked very neat on tennis court, but she could never picture him play ing football or pulling with a col- lege boat crew, as Peter had.
 Dirk's servant opened the door and came padding softly toward them with tray.
 Telephone, Mister Dirk he said in his soft, melancholy voice.

 A woman l know was wonder ing out loud the other day why 1t Is that our sex spend so much time figuring out what men like to eat. IL seemed rather silly to me, wondering about that. It's fairly obvious that women cook to please their men, not themselves. Yet the funny thing is, they often miss the point.
 one of the best cooks among my friends Is a man-atid when he's giving a big dinner for men he serves the same thing every time "a great big thick beefsteak, rich with butter and it's own juices. And his are the best stag parties that ever are given in our town.
 Ther IS one pEecautior to keep in mind about steak. They must be served as soon as cooked and must De cooked fast. If they are wanted we'll done the heat can be reduced after the entire sqrface of the steak has been scared. Or constant turning as the steak cooks insures an even doneness throughout.
 A planked steak diner has an air about 1t that is worth much to the hostess. If you haven't a plank invest in one and enjoy the deli cious combinations of steak and vegetables served that way.
 PIanked Steak
 Have the butcher cut steak ono and one-half inches thick. Trim carefully. Grease broiler wires with suet and brush steak on both sides with melted butter or salad oil. Put steak in broiler and scar first on one side and then on the other. Then broil about twenty minutes, turning several times with two forks so as not to pierce meat.
 Have the plank well oiled and very hot. Season steak with salt and pepper and put in center of plank. Put in a hot oven (400 degrees F.) for ten minutes, or longer if you like yours well done. Then garnish plank with hot mashed potatoes forced through pastry tube and a variety of other vegetables. Stuffed toma- toes, peas, string beans and fresh mushrooms is a non-starch vegee table combination. Diced beets and carrot straws combine attrac- lively with peas and potatoes when tomatoes are not used.
 If you prefer baked stuffed on- ions to stuffed tomatoes, use the tomatoes in 8 salad.

 Peter said nothing. He and Va 1eria had been over this same ground so many times. She couldn't see that man shouldn't be satified to sit back and do nothing, living on money he hadn't earned.
 ''Quixotic," valeria had called him. We'll. she wasn't really ma ture yet. Twenty-two years of be- ing habied. He fought down the ifhpatience he always felt when the question of continuing his worb-the work for which he had been trained and about which he dreamed = came up between them.
 His only ally was his grand father, who believed in men work ing. That was because he, him. self, had worked hard all his life until the last few years. He had built his vast fortune by hard work.
 All the other members of the Kendall family were on Valeria's side.
 .svaleria's right" his mother would say. "It's absurd to wait until you finish the Willard job before you marry. You have plenty of money of your own."
 Everyone agreed that 1t was foolish to wait until he completed his first big architectural job = the Willard building - before he and Valeria married. Peter wanted ~@-Nw,, -k1na i,, p1ono ond fhn laSf finishing touch put to the interior before he sail on the six months tour of Europe he and Valeria had planned for their wedding trip.
 va1eria didn't want to wait to be married, yet she was unwilling to compromise by taking a brief trip to Florida as a honeymoon and then sailing for Europe after the work was completed. She had decided that if Peter were going to be stubborn, she would be stub- born too. She had refused to Afl- nounce the engagement. She had the feeling that she was punishing him. Moreover, girls good time was certainly slowed up after her engagement was known. Lots of the men who were the most fun dropped of.
 valeria waited until she heard Peters car moving off. Then she crossed the living room and switched on the light in the sun parlor. A man who had been ly- ing on the lounge got to his feet.

 I'm terribly sorry. Dirk, please-Tm punished!" She broke from his grasp and ran into her room. She was slipping out of the white crepe and getting into. a f1ame-colored chiffon when her aunt entered the room. The chif- ion was practically backless and closely fitted. Valeria remembered

CHARGED To FIVE
Leader of Gang Nabbed at
West Baden Taken to
New Jail,

Arrest of three men and two
women at West Baden by state and
federal officers is said to have
solved a series of twenty-three post
office and courthouse robberies in
several states.
According to Vernon Shields, in
spector of detectives of state police,
leader of the gang is James (Jimmie)
Little, A, alleged expert craftsman,
discharged from the Indiana state
prison in December.
He was transferred yesterday from
the Paoli Jail to "a stronger one
elsewhere" Inspector Shields said,
but refused to disclose where. The
Dillinger Jail break at Crown Point
gave them the clew to make a
transfer, he admitted.
Gerald Myers, %, West Baden, is
being held at Jasper, while Ray
Harmon, "a, and his two sisters,
June, 80, and Beatrice, SO, are in
the Paoh Jail.
Little was traced by f1ngerprints
left at the Boswell poStofflce, which
was robbed recently. A raid
on a house at West Baden by state
police resulted in his capture. New
clothing and a can containing $421
in stamps was found under the
house, police say.
The clothing is said to have been
identified as having been stolen at
Sturgeon, where a store and post
office was robbed.
Indiana courthouses said to have
been broken into by the gang are
at Kentland, Newport, Brazil and
Spencer.
