places in the park. In either case the
important point is that you pack the
picnic basket with the makings of the
lunch. rather than with the readyto-
eat foods that you take along on a hot
day.
ESPECIALLY if there are children
along, the balanced diet element
must be carefully considered. Just be-
cause you are eating out of doors,
rather than in your own dining room,
is no reason to feel that you do not
need variety of foods. Vitamins and
food values must be counted on just
the same.
To begin with the meat, however.
Ground meat. to make into hamburger
cakes to be broiled over the fire, for
the great hamburger sandwich" that
all picknickers love. Is always a happy
choice. Bacon broiled over the flame
Is also good, especially when stuck
alternately on a skewer between
savory chunks of beef or mutton. in
the good Oriental fashion.
For "Wienie roast" the sausages
may be cooked on a stick or on
grill or pan over the fire, with the
rolls all split and buttered waiting for
the hot wienie and the mustard Be
sure that the wienies are thoroughly
done, by the way, as half-cooked pork
and beef are not conducive to good
health!
II you take your frying pan along.
you may vary the meat with scrambled
eggs or fried eggs to make delicious
egg sandwiches.
BAKED potatoes could be carried
along. smoking hot, in one of the
heavy red pottery or earthenware bak-
ing dishes, heated red hot in the oven,
and wrapped securely in a napkin.
You will be surprised to find how long
food will stay hot in one of these
sffair. Recently. when a friend of
mine was in the hospital, took lunch
10 her every day in one. and when it
arrived 1t was as hot as when it left
my kitchen!

Your vacuum bottle, of course, will
take care of the drink problem. Hot

their regular milk quota in a festive

an oval face with a high
forehead. How should I
- wear my hair?
(2) am 1914 years old,
feet 1 inch tall and weigh 122 pounds.
Is this correct?
90 Should I wear hats with or
without brims?
90 I have gray-blue eyes, brown
hair, rosy cheeks and fair skin.
What shades of makeup should I
use? What colors in clothes are most
becoming? TERESA.
Answer-The hair Is parted in the
center. On the left side it is combed
back of the brow; on the right side
there are curled bangs that swirl over
the center OF the forehead. At the
sides there Is a wide wave over the
top Of the ears and the ends are in

and more solid muscles than the
average To avoid becoming fat you
must avoid eating between meals and
go slow on rich desserts, pastries and
candy.
90 Brims make one look shorter
II they are wide ones. Either hats
with small irregular brims or none
at all would be becoming,

like yours does not need makeup.
The less one uses at your age the
better. For evening parties a little
makeup is permissible, however. Try

Betty's Old
Furniture
Looks New
BY FLORENCE La GANKE.

RETTY's fiance loved her a lot.
He had a good head and good
business sense, but so far he had found
few opportunities to put his business
sense to work. Nevertheless the couple
decided to get married and to set up
housekeeping by themselves. Betty
had a job but she decided to give 1t
up since it was not specialized posi-
ton which only she could fill. Not
that Betty believed in women staying
home and giving up their profession
in the business world, but after all,
there were just so many pieces Of work
to be done and If Betty held on to
hers 1t kept some one else, who was
not acquiring q nice husband, from
having chance at earning a hveh-
hood.
Doing over furniture for the new
home was one of her ways of paying
her way in the new venture. She
could do this in her free time at home.
She took an old lounging chair Of
Bert's and removed all the old finish.
1t was of wood stained mahogany.
She painted the chair with coat of
aluminium paint before she put on any
other paint or enamel. This kept the
red stain from bleeding through. 1t
was absolutely necessary, as she knew,
to do this.
Then the frame was enamelled
white, three coats, the first one being
fiat white. Sandpapering was done
between applications of coats. The
frame was then antiqued. The up
holstery was done with coarse woven
cotton fabric, rather nubby. For her
dining room she treated an old chest
of drawers in the same way, painting
o gay peasant design on the front Of
the drawers to match some plates.
This was done before the final antique
glazing coat with q little Japanese
brown in 1t was put on.
Her curtains we're double thickness
unbleached muslin with two rows of
fringe, one 2 inches wide of blue
and the inner one sewed right over the
blue, of red fringe, inch wide.
Two hurricane glasses went on the
chest. The walls of the room were Q
dull ole1blue, giving red, white and
hlus dining room.

and then she held a paper
for an instant. sighed and laid 1t
aside without the red star stamp.
What in the world are you doing? ?"
asked Miss Priscilla in the special tone
reserved by those who know better
toward those who do not.
Stamping red stars, OF course,
said Miss Jane coolly. suiting the
action to the word That rapid dis
missal almost caused a riot in my
room They didn't want TO go home
without their stars so I had to
promise they would get them the
minute they came back after lunch.
1T seems to me that you are using
the wrong idea. Miss Jane. I think
a child ought to be taught to work
for works sake. The best reward for
a noble deed is the knowledge of
having done it."
That sounds all right to me but
it wouldn't mean a thing to my
babies They want something TO show
for their noble deeds. Words don
mean a thing. One A. is entirely
composed of realists''
1T is the wrong motive. I feel very
strongly that children should be
taught higher values, higher motives,
than are implied in stars and prizes
and honor rolls"
so? But you did feel kind of good
last term end when the board raised
your salary, didn't you? You felt a
bit uplifted by the notion that your
noble deeds had been appreciated in
terms of dollars and cents, didn't
you? And you rather like to see the
AS the principal marks on your rec
ord. don't you? And If you didn't
get them how mad you would be-"
Il hope I am above such feelings.
I"
But you are not Nobody is" said
Miss Jane calmly, rising to go her way
with the bundle of yellow papers
stamped and unstamped with the
bright red star. IF there is one thing
that thrills me through and through
it is hearing my name called with the
resounding phrase. Summa cum laude.
Me for the stars"
Words mean little to children. For
the moment they impress them but
with the next breath they are gone
and their meaning along with them.
You cannot show your mother the
words the teacher said when she
marked your paper. You might be
tempted to color them bit, too
Or invent them. But when you carry
home paper with bright red star,
the unmistakable imprint Of teacher s
approval, you have the confidence that
solidity of matter always gives to your
somewhat less tangible being. You
have something to show.
Work for works sake, art for arts
sake, is noble conception of the
spirit but man does not live by spirit
alone. He is a bundle of wants
hungers, personal and primitive i'm
pulses that must be slowly and
painfully dragged up the slopes OF
spiritual life through long years OF
experience. As he Is raised toward
the heights. he gains an appreciation
Of the higher values but until the
very last his heart will long for the
stars, the symbols of his earthly VIC
tories. the beacons marking his road
toward the Celestial City Of his
dreams.

The Old Gardener Saws:

Cutworms are already at work
or are lying in wait for the early
plants in the vegetable garden.
When tomatoes are set out they
should ALWAYS be protected with
paper collars thrust an inch into
the ground and extending three
inches above the ground. They
will usually save the tomato
plants. But this method cannot
be followed in the flower garden,
where cutworns are pretty sure
to prey on larkspurs and other
perennials. Most Of the gardening
books tell how to make a bait, but
the amateur will find 1t more
satisfactory to buy such q bait at
the store or to use a preparation
which can be sprayed on the
ground and which proves fatal
to cutworms. This latter material
can be used with considerable
success early in the season. but
later when the cutworms get to
work in earnest a strong cut
worm remedy or poison bait Is
needed unless one Is willing to go
around in the garden with a
fiashlight at night watching for
the pests while they are At work.

you are indulging in such a childish

their youngsters when they swelled

they were spoken to.
I HAVE seen many mother cure

angel by turning him or her over her

will have killed your love and broken
up your home and you will be on your

pretty high price to pay for pouting,
