Some people lie like children,
never quite grow up in regard to
the presentations which make
them the heroes of their own
stories. They brag and miSrepre-
sent, in an effort to appear more
important.
If your husband is that kind of
a liar, while humiliating and an
noying, it's hardly grounds for
divorce. If he lies about infidelity,
that's another matter, but from
the text of your letter I judge that
is not the case.
Childish liars, who day-dream
aloud about their own Importance
and splendid accomplishments,
are not often cured of this dis
tressing habit. It's their childish
way of side-stepping inferiority.

GayHats

PARIS-Bright colors are the
outstanding feature of the new
hats. Even black or navy blue
hats are always enhanced by a
gay note in the trimmings. Jane
Blanchot uses vivid red lacquered
rayon gros-grain for little toques,
trimming them with white dull
albene ribbon. Agnes shows little
toques in poppy red tulle trimmed
with large poppies in white and
red tulle. For smart afternoon
and dinner hats, Suzy chooses
rayon organza in geranium tones.
Suzanne Talbot diSposeS a bunch
of multi-colored flowers in trans
parent plastic material on black
lacquered straw hat. Worth COW

years Of age, and as 1 stand up
all day my feet often give me
trouble. The heels and calves ache
and 1 feel tired to the back of

Dear Miss Berthe: The muscu-
lar strain is the principal cause
of the ache in your calves and
heels. What you need is to
change and relieve this strain by
exercise and rest, too.
When you stop to think Of it,
you will realize that most dane
ers are on their feet for a num-
Der of hours every day and they
have less foot trouble than others.
The weight shifting and quick
changes in position will prevent
stiffness and keep the muscles
1.-the AMI pliable so there will be
no strain on any one set.
You may feel that we lack SYM
pathy in advising more exercise
when you are already tired, but
after you have done a few of the
correct movements you will be sur
priSed to find the aches and stiff
ness will be gone. A good mas
sage or manipulation Of the back
y,oIIScleS will often hiring inmedi-
ate relief. My normalizing exer-
else viii have this effect, too.
After a good energetic workout
a warm bath and rest will make
you fit for an evenings recreation
or a good restful sleep.

| here, on Cne Z,0SU acres OF park,
the battle has been clearly ex-
plotted. Two thousand monu-
ments and markers record each
encounter. Miles of paved high
ways circle to each place of i'm
portance and it is possible, in

Memorial Day is an especially
fine occasion to visit Gettysburg.

The picnic facilities at the park
are rather limited, so on this out
ing, a well-filled picnic basket
with q thermos jug Of cool beV-
erage will be in order.
At one of the downtown stores
a new type Of metal thermos IS
constructed for bottled beverages
and chopped ice. If you enjoy
picnicS and also like to have
beverages tinkling with ice this
would be a wise purchase.
A picnic menu that will appeal
to the masculine taste follows:
Sliced Ham Loaf Mustard
Casserole Of Baked Beans
Sweet Spice Picked Peaches
Olives - Pickles
Whole Tomatoes
Bread and Butter Sandwiches
Spice Cake
Coffee or Beer
Ham Loaf
1 pound Of ground ham

Anniversary
Party
BY MRs.CoRNEL1Us BEECKMAN

by MhS.COkNEL1US bEECkMAN
Dear Mrs. Beeckman:
"We are five sisters and next
month is our parents silver we'd
ding anniversary. We would
like to have a surprise party
for them, but as we have never
been to an anniversary party,
We don't know how to entertain.
Is there any special custom, or
do we entertain just as we would
at an ordinary party?
do we have a cake?
do we invite friends of our
age, or should we invite people
of our parents age?
what would you suggest for
gift? Should the gift be pre-
scented in front Of everyone?
"ShOuId we have games?
"How should we arrange the
invitations? Two of us are
married. FIVE SISTERS"
There isn't much difference
between a party given to cele-
brate a wedding anniversary and
any other party given at the
same time of day. Usually this
kind of party is given as a tea:
party, between the hours Of
4 and 7. This is a very con-
venient time for guests to come
to "pay their compliments" to
the guests of honor, and the
foods served at that time can be
inexpensive and most attractive.
Usually there is a cake, and
this can be the central decoration
of the tea-table. Each guest is
given a slice, with the dessert or
as the dessert. Serve tea at one
end of your tea-table, and coffee
at the other end. Simple sand
witches of various kinds. Small
cakes, or layer cakes, or the we'd
ding cake. For your tea-cloth,
you might use silver paper or sill
yer cellophane or any other sill
vered novelty paper or cloth. For
the center piece, if you don't use
the wedding cake, have white
flowers in a white glass or silver
bowl.
The majority Of the guests
should be people of your parents
age. And then ask some of your
own friends whom your parents
know very well and would enjoy
having at their party.
You may, if you wish, present
the gift after the guests have ar
rived-this is according to choice.
The gift might be something,
since this is an important ami
versary and the symbol is silver.
But this is not necessary. Give
anything that you know your
mother and father will enjoy US
ing in their home.
It won't be necessary to have
games. The point of this signif1-
cant party is to gather relatives
and friends together to congratu-
late your mother and father and
to chat with them and with each
other.
You might divide the number Of
guests-to-be-invited among you,
and each write that number OF
invitations. The invitations might
begin, my sisters and l."
