For Mr.. Pecora

Mowbray district of Eng

poets to ride in the Grand
National Steeplechase at
Aintree on March %, in
which his own horse, Castle
Irwell, is entered.
Two years ago Mrs. Clark
won the famous classic with
her horse, Kellsboro Jack,

to receive the honor.
Just before Mr.. and Mrs.
Clark sailed for their English
sojourn, MIR. Clark was pre-
sented with a portrait of him
self, done in oils, by Ray

hundred of Mr.. Clark's
friends subscribed to the fund
for the portrait, all of them
prominent in racing, fox
hunting or polo, with Edward
H. earle, Malcolm Steven
son and Harry Zogbaum act
ing as a committee.
The portrait shOrs Mr..
Clark IN the paddock at BEL

gray bowler hat.
Each of the subscribers
has received q framed,

stroyed after the copies
aUere made.
The portrait is intended
to show to Mr.. Clark the

of the portrait at a prlUdte
ceremony Mr.. Clark aCaS
much affected and declared

In not so many years these
children themselves will be
growing up and getting married.
They will feel less helpless
about the parental role they
naturally will be called upon to
assume, if they have had a GER

baby-care in their youth.
Finally, psychologists now be-

suffer from being too eXclu-

Save Time

There are two ways to shave
preparation time when you are
in a hurry. One is to "cook
ahead"-to have some previously
cooked foods waiting their turn
in the refrigerator. Another is
to keep on hand some easy-to-
prepare foods and staples that
take but a second to get on the
table.
Restock your shelf of emer-
gency canned and packaged
foods every now and then; watch
for store specials and fill your
pantry with those easy-is-as-
easy-does foods: canned fruits,
soups, packages of pasteurized
dates and the like.
"CoOk Ahead"
One week, say, have a ''cook-
ing bee" and make up a batch of
cookies or cake to keep on hand
through the week.
Cook a little extra when you
do cook; it takes no more heat
or trouble, sfor example, to boil
a lot of rice than little, and it
can be saved and reheated again
and again.
Even pastry and biscuit dough
will keep for quite awhile, and
salad dressings keep for long
periods if tightly bottled.
Be sure to have fruits on
hand, and in this connection
don't forget how versatile,
how easy to prepare is the
banana-it is always in season
and all you need to do by way
of preparation is peel it! Keep

These
Pleasing
Scents
By JULIET SHELBY

Some day Hollywood will
give Marion Nixon the
"break" she deserves.
"Rebecca of Sunnybrook
Farm" captured some of
her rare and sparkling per-
sonality, but much of her
talent has not yet been
given a chance.
AS she develops, another Scin-
tillating star of the screen will
be heralded, for Marion has the
winsomeness and breath-taking
sweetness of Helen Hayes-who.
by the way, is her favorite screen
actress!
That is about the highest
tribute I can pay Marion, and
you would join my enthusiasm
if you knew this petite, friendly
girl who will be forever young.
For no matter when you see her,
she looks like a fresh flower.
Her almost perfect complexion,
clear bright eyes and natural
blond hair create for her an
aura of appealing youth.
And, consistent with her
charm and physical beauty, Ma
rion Nixon prefers the true
fragrances of flowers in her
choice of perfumes. She chooses
stimulating essences that lift
ones spirit and make it seem
good to be alive.
I have selected three rare

Fathers Can Help

Fathers can learn these les
sons just as easily. AS soon as
the baby is given a bottle,
fathers can learn how to give
it.
One fine way in which a
father can keep his wife from
becoming overexhausted, if she
has no nurSemaid or other
helper, is to take upon himself
the duty of giving the 2-o'clock-
in-the-morning bottle when it is
needed.
Thus the mother gets the
eight hours of unbroken sleep
from 10 to which she needs
if she is to keep up her strength
AS the baby gets older and re-
quires more companionship and
entertainment, the father often
can "spell' the mother, setting
her free for several hours of
rest or recreation. She needs
time off" from her job, as
much as any other worker.

Dear Miss Fairfax:
I'm a Scandinavian and make
a very good salary. I'm not bad
looking, and am willing to do
my part in the way of making
things agreeable for any nice
young lady.
I can't understand why I
have found it so hard to become
acquainted in Washington, un-
less it is that I speak with a
foreign accent.
OF course, have plenty of op-
portunitieS of picking up" girls,
but I don't care to know that
kind. OSCAR.
It doesn't do, when you find
yourself in a strange city, to try
and make acquaintances too
quickly. The more deliberate
you are about signing people up,
as friends, the more lasting
these friendships are apt to be.
Join some good club. The
young men you meet in this way
will undoubtedly introduce you
to some nice girls.
AS I've said often before in
this column, the best way to
make friends is through other
friends.

Family Cooperation

Older children can be taught
to cooperate directly with the
busy mother in taking care OF
little sister or brother.
Naturally the mother will re-
tain in her own hands such
careful operations as the prep
aration of the food formula
or the sterilization of the bot
ties. But a careful, responsible
youngster of ten or twelve can
be shown how to hold the baby's
bottle or play gently with him.
Little mothers" in the more
crowded sections of large cities
often are in charge of the baby
while he has his outdoor airing.
Not only these big sisters, but
