this preparation is kind to the

brittleness.
Try it next time and see for

Release
This spring I should like to go
down to the beach
To live there, just out Of the
waters reach;
For want to forget the month
and the day,
And to toss the thought Of the
years away!
If I only could live in the hour
alone,
I should find each hour more
perfect grown,
With nothing of past time or
time to be
To keep holding me back, to
keep pulling at me.
This spring at the beach, as Of
old, I should find
The green waters curling against
the wind,
And eagerly flinging themselves
on the sand,
Grasping at Earth with a hun.
cry hand.
Then out of that endless ebb
and flow
Which is changeless and cease.
less while cons go.
+ could gain release from the
week and the day,
I could toss the thought Of the

BEECKMAN

Dear Mrs. Beeckman:
I am having a party and as
there viii be IA guests and my
husband and myself, my mid
night luncheon is my problem.
There. is not room to seat all
at my dining-room table, so
would you suggest a buffet
luncheon? I have a luncheon
cloth made of a 36-inch square
Of lovely linen, with erocheted
lace about 8 inches deep around
it. Could I use this, or would
a large linen tablecloth be bet
ter?
Could I place the tray Of
sandwiches, cakes and so forth
on the table for the guests to
help themselves, or Is 1t more
proper to pass them around?
How should the serviettes and
small plates be dlStr1ouCed?
K.
For use on your buffet table
this cloth that you describe
sounds as if it would be just
the thing. It would be more
appropriate than the more
formal linen table cloth.
Guests at a buffet party are
supposed to serve themselves.
Have everything conveniently
placed on the buffet table so
that this friendly informality
will be convenient.
Have your plates, too, on
your buffet table. Have the
pile of plates with the serv-
iettes between the plates, so
that each guest can first take
a plate with its accompanying
SerViette.

A GOOD FORGETTERY

"NT TOW, what was that name-I
 " knew it so well-oh, I don't seem to be able to remember any thing !"
 Constantly we hear that self re- proach. And when it comes from people past the age of youth, 1t is usually coupled with a sad comment on getting old. All because they could not remember a name which nine times out of ten there was no point in remembering
 well-known psychologist has pointed out that forgetting is no less important function of the mind than remembering.
 The most active minds, and those which produce what is most impor- tant, must consciously or uncon- sciously select very carefully just what 1t is worth while to remem. ber And certainly they do not choose to remember the names of all the people with whom they come in contact or all the places to which they have gone. The first may be important to the salesman to whom the people are prospects" !; the latter might be useful to one who wants to talk about his or her travels. In such cases there are reasons for remembering-with- out which anyone is foolish to wish to so burden ones mind.
 Not only is indiScriminate anG wholesale remembering unnecessary in the uses of the mind, but it is frequently a sign of very narrow mind. The person who has few in teresting experiences is likely tC cling to them, remember every de tail of them, and to bore others by repeating their history. And there is no duller companion than the woman whose memory is so goo( that she remembers unpleasant things, which are much better for gotten. Equally dull is the one whose mind is so full of the things and facts she remembers thai there is no space or energy for free dom of flight in thought.

BEDTIME STORY By THORNTON w. BURGESS

friend with whom he had become so well acquainted was going to be snatched away in the cruel claws of Hooty right before his very eyes? Could it be?
 Suddenly Hooty screamed and at the sound out from the grass shot Nimbleheels in the longest jump Peter had yet seen him make. Hooty struck with his great curved claws, but he was too slow. As be- fore, hardly had Nimbleheels land ed in the grass than Hooty was lowering right over the very spot. Nimbleheels did not wait for him to scream but was in the air in an other long jump almost as soon as he reached the ground. This time he jumped to the side instead of in the direction he had jumped be- fore. Probably 1t was this that saved his life, Hooty was not ready for him in that direction and so ne missed him again.
 Then began the most exciting game Peter had ever seen. At least it seemed like game. It wasn't, of course, because both Nimbleheels and HOOty were very much in earnest, the pretty little cousin of Danny Meadow Mouse to save his life, and Hooty to get a good dinner.
 Such jumping! It made Peter Rabbit ashamed to think that he had ever bragged about his own jumping. This way, that way, the other way, darted Nimbleheels over the tops of the grasses, and wheel ing and turning on noiseless wings Hooty the Owl followed, always just a wee second too late, as he struck

1t is never safe to play in the Green Meadows unless a sharp watch is kept for danger.
 Suddenly a shadow swept over Peter. There wasn't a sound. Keen as are Peters long ears he heard nothing. Luckily for him he was sitting absolutely still at the time. Had he moved the least tiny bit the end of Peter would have been right then and there, for the shadow was Hooty the Owl.
 Nimbleheels was so intent on his Jumping that he didn't see that shadow at all until he shot up into the air above the tops of the grasses almost under Hooty. It is a ques. tion which was the most surprised, Nimbleheels or Hooty. Swiftly, but without a sound Hooty turned in the air and Nimbleheels had no more than disappeared in the grass than Hooty was lowering right over 1t, his great eyes piercing down fiercely for a glimpse of the little Mouse he knew must be hiding among the grass stems right be meath him.
 Peter sat quite still with horror which was, perhaps, just as well fol Peter. Could it be that the littlt

DINING SERVICE

MAR Mrs. Post: While dining in A the house of stranger the other night noticed that her waitress brought in dessert plate with a fine lace dolly on 1t and on top of that finger bowl. The sill yer for dessert was already at the places. l had never had a finger bowl brought in just this way. My hostess removed 1t and the dolly from the dessert plate and put the bowl down on the dolly at the left to the back of the dessert plate. The dessert was rich fudge cake, which would have soiled the dolly miserably. Is 1t correct to let dolly take the place of plate which matches the finger bowl and which stands on top of the dessert plate usually without any dolly between them?
 Answer: l don't think I under stand your question. I don't see how the cake could possibly come in contact with the dolly. Doilies are not often used, but when they are, you pick yours up with the finger bowl and put both down to- gether on the tablecloth where there Is space. Then you put whatever it may be on the plate. You certainly would not put food on the dolly, everi

I have al- ways used them as such, which must be wrong (3) Is it ever all right to eat peas with a spoon, in ease, or must they be juggled with fork? (4) Are little side dishes always tabu? (5) Tn a restaurant, when foods are sometimes served in separate dishes, is 1t correct to eat them directly from the serving dish or should all food be put from there over on the dinner plate?
 Answer: CD Remove all that you can with the fruit knife and fork, before lifting a piece to the mouth, and any seeds left in the fruit are removed between thumb and finger, or dropped into the cupped hand. They are in either case dried as completely as pos sible with tongue and between lips. (2) There are slightly larger spoons used for serving, but tablespoons answer perfectly. (3) Spoon abso- lutely tabu. Mash them slightly with the fork, if you must. But I can't see that there is any diff culty ever. (4 Correctly. yes.

savagely with his great cruel-look- ing claws.
 Peter wanted to shout to Nimble- heels and tell him to make for the dear Old Brier Patch, but even if he could have he wouldn't have dared, for he knew only too well that Hooty wouldn't think twice of a little jumping mouse if he had a chance for rabbit dinner. So there was nothing for Peter to do but to sit there 2nd hope and hope with all his might that Nimbleheels would escape, and that Hooty would get far enough away to give him, Peter, chance to bolt for the safety of his home.
 It seemed to Peter that Nimble- heels was making shorter jumps.
 Was he getting too tired to jump? If so, the end would come soon. Peter held his breath.

JUMPING FOR LIFE

NHAT a person can do well he
 W almost always enjoys doing. Nimbleheels, own cousin to Danny Meadowmouse, Is the very best jumper on the green meadows, so 1t is quite natural that he should enjoy jumping. He jumped and he Jumped for Peter Rabbits benefit. Peter stole out from the dear old Brier Patch and sat up in the moon- light that he might watch Nimble- heels better. Such jumping Peter had never seen before, and both he and Nimbleheels became so in- terested that they quite forgot that

 Answer: Would he mind If he saw you do It? If he would, you might copy him-especially if a friend of his Is present. If he does not care, then you will either have to deprive him of some small priv ileges or tand in my opinion better) let him earn privilege or an award by marks of excellence; 100 meals without doing 1t once. for instance, would earn something he wants.
 My dear Mrs. Post: Are cards re- moved from funeral flowers before the flowers are arranged? Or are the names simply written down for a record to use In writing thank you notes?
 Answer: They are taken off and description of the flowers written on the back of each card, for future thanks.
 Dear Mrs. Post: l have new daughter just three days old. My husband was killed two months ago. Under these tragic circumstances shall announce my baby's birth by sending out cards as we would have done, or do I simply do nothing about 1t at all? If any announce ment were sent to the newspaper, how would 1t be worded?
 Answer: Sending announcements of a child's birth is entirely mat ter of personal inclination. In your case 1t would be best to telephone or write to your intimate friends; they in turn tell others. I mean, of course, that member of your family will do this for you. To send a baby card tied to your own black bordered one would empha- size the tragedy very painfully. I wouldn't do 1t If I were you. The announcement in the newspaper would read: Daughter of Mrs John Jones and the late MT. Jones' Dear Mrs. Post: When my hus- band and I happen to be in the room, should we shake hands when boy friend of my younger sister leaves after having spent the eve ming in our house? This sister lives with us.
 Answer: If your sisters friend is a regular visitor, you would prob ably look up and. without paying particular attention, say, "Good night, Tomi" If he is a stranger, or some one who does not come to the house often, your natural i'm pulse would be to shake hands with him when he leaves.
