Collie Is Easily
7 rained
BY LIZ HUME

Young Jack Ford writes to
me Of his fine collie, Rover.
They both reside on a farm in
Welcome, Md, where Rover has
all the territory he desires.
Rover lives up to one of the best
characteristics of this breed.
He is a watch dog of the very
best sort.
The collie was developed by
the shepherds of Scotland and
the fashionable strains which
are seen on the show benches
and are so popular as pets and
companions are the direct de-
scendants of the dogs of the
Scottish hills and border lands.
The collie is one Of the hand
soonest and most dependable of
dogs, extremely intelligent, es-
pecially loyal to their masters,
easily trained and the most re-
liable guards and companions.
They are naturally a hardy
breed although some strains
have been weakened by inbreed-
ing.
There is another type of col
lie which is seldom seen around
Washington. This is the
smooth coat" This type also
is a product of Scotland and
the border country and resembles
the rough-coated collies in size,
general conformation and char
acter.
The main point of difference
is in their coat, which is short,
dense, and flat with a thick un.
dercoat which protects their
bodies from wet and changes in
temperature in extremes Of
weather.
If you have a good picture
of your pet, Liz Hume invites

turned.

stock, and heat all together.
Strain all once again through
cheesecloth, and reheat for serv-
ing. Pour very hot into warmed
soup plates, and drop one tea.
spoonful of whipped cream on
top of each plate. Serve with
Melba toast. This soup must
be piping hot to be really at its
best.
Mrs. Lee also has a recipe
for the most delicious cream
of onions soup, which is light
and delicate enough to be an
excellent choice for either
luncheon or dinner. To make
enough for six persons she
suggests the following:
CREAM OF ONIONS SOUP
3 medium-SiZed white onions
2 tablespoons butter
l quart milk
~ tablespoons flour
Salt and pepper to taste
Put the onions through the
meat grinder, and place in a
saucepan with just enough
water to prevent them from
burning. Simmer slowly until
soft.
Blend the butter and flour in
another saucepan, and then
pour the milk in slowly. Add
the onions, and stir we'll until
thoroughly blended.
Reheat in a double boiler,
and serve very hot in bouillon
cups, with a little paprika
sprinkled over the top.

Dear Mrs. Beeckman:

PreSentlng Can010aCeS
Dear Mrs. Beeckman:
At our last meeting five
members were chosen to nomi-
nate candidates for election of
new officers for our circle.
Members have their choice of
either voting from our list or
choosing their own candidates
from the floor.
Can you please help me by
telling me what would be the
proper thing to say when pre-
senting the list of candidates
to our members at the time of
election? F.
Say, very directly, just what
you have told me: For your
voting today wish to present
the list of candidates who have
been chosen by the five mem
bers of the nominating COM
mittee. The committee also
wishes me to announce that, if
you wish, you may, instead of
voting for any of these candi-
dates presented in this list,
nominate any other candidate
by presenting the name of this
candidate from the floor.

These powder compacts may

Powder Base for Blonde?
Dear Miss Shelby:
Can you recommend sun tan
oil as a powder base? Is a cream
or oil base the best for a blonde?
Sincerely, C.L.
Dear Miss C. L.
I would not advise using sun
tan oil as a powder base. Most
of these oils are too greasy, and
your powder would not go on
smoothly.
Either cream or oil is good
for a blonde. 1t is entirely .
matter of personal choice.

The Rhymine
Optimist
BY ALINE MICHAELIS
To An Unknown Friend

-
A little lonely, touched with
fear,
A little doubtful of my aim
Was I when on that morning
drear
Your letter came.
And oh, it brought a beam of
light
That pierced my doubts dark
forest maze,
It opened roads of hope to sight
And joys bright ways!
So white it lay, so small thing
Before its message was con-
fessed,
I did not dream that it could
bring
To my sad breast
Such priceless comfort and such
cheer.
Though I had never known your
name,
Like some good angel winging
near
Your letter came!

But he's amusing, and takes
her to smart, Cutlery places
where the music is good and
the food and drink of the best,
and she forgets for a while.
Going out with him is like
graSping the floating spar
which offers a chance after
the ship has gone down. And
this girls ship has sunk in
bitterness and humiliation.
The story.
He Failed Her
Invitations were out for her
wedding, the tickets for the
wedding trip bought, the cake
baked-the groom didn't appear.
The woman whom he SUISSE
quently married was old enough
to be his mother, and then
some,
The young man had been
unemployed for the better part
Of two years, and during that
time the older woman had lent
him substantial sums of money.
Also, she fell in love with MIN.
When his luck turned he
began to pay back this money,
and had paid back all but $500
when he became engaged to my
correspondent.
It's a question whether he
should have proposed marriage
with debt hanging over him,
but he did. However, he tried
to do the square thing.
To make the transaction le-
gal, he acknowledged his in
debtedness, agreed to pay 6
per cent interest and curtail
the principal every three
months.
Foolish Move
This he sent through a law
yer, and at the same time he
wrote a personal letter to the
older woman and told her of
his forthcoming marriage.
But this woman didn't want
the money or the interest; she
only wanted to marry the
young man.
The boy-he is 24-became
panicky. He imagined if suit
were brought that his girl
would be involved.
Sc he married the older
woman, with a foolish and
utterly mistaken idea of keep
ing his girls name out of it.
And now all their friends
and acquaintance are shaking
with laughter that anyone
could have been so foolish as
this boy!
Death Welcome
The girl is trying to carry
her head high, and pretend
that she isn't hurt, though she
writes me:

If the meringue in your lemon
