THE TABLE-
 Food Suggestions By Mrs. Mary E. Dague

It's the first course, more than likely, that will set the final course of the summer dinner party.
 Hot weather appetites need to be spurred by foods with delicate appealing flavors, and the hostess who has invited guests for break fast, luncheon or dinner Should give especial care to the. opening of the meal.
 Chilled and slistening jellied bouillon, iced fruits or fruit juices, fish and vegetable cocktails are first favorites among hot weather appe- tizers.
 Keep Dishes Cold
 If the iced melon or fruit cock tail can be served in a well of ice, 50 much the better. However, If this form of service is not convenient, zee that the food remains on ice until just before serving. The dishes in which the frosty mixture is to be served also should be thoroughly chilled.
 Fruit is refreshing in almost any form. A dozen richly colored, per- feet cherries on small white plate with @ few green leaves for color contrast makes an individual serv- ing few can resist.
 Jellied consomme is delicate for hot summer noons-~ or evenings. Highly seasoned, 1t stimulates the appetite much as 6 hot soup does. Since very cold foods have a ten- dency to dull the sense of taste, extra salt and pepper are needed for an iced consomme.
 Jellied tomato boulllon has e tart piquancy. It should be quiveringly firm, but not stiff enough to hold its shape. A jelly that is too stiff is far from appetizing.
 Gelatin for Thickenlng
 Instead of standing for long hours over hot stove, cooking down meat stock into jellies, the modern housewife uses gelatin as @ thickening agent for bouillons and consommes. Canned soups and bouillon cubes also simplify prepa- ration of these dishes
 A precaution to keep in mind In planning menus, either in sum- mer or winter, is that flavors should not be repeated. If the meal starts with tomato juice or jellied tomato bouillon, do not serve q tomato salad. When the first course consists of fruit, the salad should be of vegetables and the dessert q pudding or fec cream. A jellied salad or dessert would have little appeal following a jellied first course.
 However, by planning carefully, you can take full advantage of the variety of fruits and vegetables available to offer your guests varied and interesting meals. It is wise to follow the grocer's advice and select each fruit and vegetable at the height of it's season, when it's flavor is best.
 A macedoine of fruit is made with several varieties, prepared in tart, fruit -favored jelly and poured SO that each layer hardens separately. The nodded brick is then cut in slices to serve.

 Many things need careful cons sideration, so 1t is we'll to study tho problem with . view to doing some. careful planning. Just as remind- CTS may suggest these points: :: food is important: especially, iS there plenty of milk, and is 1t good, clean and wholesome7 Is there protection against flies, ants, and mosquitoes, and, sometimes, snakes? Provide sensible clothing, especially shoes and stockings; a first-aid kit; bedding and covers; dishes, eating utensils, and cooking pans. A tent is an asset, though it requires transportation. '
 Just this thought. Camping is' one of the great adventures of. childhood. What 1t teaches, the child can i'll afford to lose. Al-I though we worry, it is better to give him this experience than to' deprive him of 1t because of our fears.

 And next day. Betty, when you go to play with Mary this afternoon, don't drag old Calico-Ann with you. Take Marlene. And put your satin coverlet and pillow in the buggy"
 T don't like Marlene. always play with Calico-Ann."
 "Why do you persist in having that old rag doll along always? Mary's mother thinks you have no better doll. I want her to see the one your aunt brought you from New York"
 Getting Sidelong View
 Next day, still. Betty wasn't allowed to have an ice cream cone because a lady lecturer on children was visiting next door, and her mother wasn't sure of her views. Another time 1t was the child around the corner. T would not have her here today, Betty" says her mother "She comes in Q torn dress sometimes and I'm having Mrs. Smithkin for lunch"
 Betty is developing Q "fan.eye," one that sees things to one side more clearly than things straight ahead. When she does anything her first thought is, What would So-and-So think2"
 And why not2" ask Q hundred mothers. Isn't this all part of convention, comparable to our get- ting out the best linen and silver for guests, or donning our newest clothes for church2 Isn't 1t just such standards that keep us from reverting, and cause us to stretch our efforts toward culture and de. cent living2"
 An, yes. Surely they are right. If 1t wasn't for the Joneses of the world, what would we be likep I have always felt Q reverance for the Joneses who at least make us keep our windows washed, stock ings alarmed and spots off the table, cloth.
 Forgetting to Be Selves
 However (there is always 6 "however," and here's another), sometimes If we see only the Joneses we forget to be ourselves.
 There is danger of Betty learn- ing to care too much about what other people think. After Q while she may figuratively be holding a false head above her own to show over the wall, as in the old Orlen. tai plays; not her real self, but an artificial self to fool the public. And those who know will say, "'What @ pity she is 50 calculating and can't be just natural and nice." She fools nobody. How much better would we like the real girl under heath.
 To try to please people is a really fine lesson of childhood, but to overdo 1t and crush personality is different. If done in the spirit of show-oH or knock 'em-dead," 1t is pretty wrong indeed. Naturally mothers have to save their own pride at times through their chil- dren and no one can blame them for that: but there is grave danger when this spirit governs to excess and behavior becomes too studied.
 The frank, fortnight child, who looks straight ahead, aware of but not overpowered by the gallery or side-lines is the one we love, and who will be most loved through life. Copyright, l936, NEA Service, Incl

shoulders and creates a youthful, little girl air, and a wide-briins med, ladyllke hat will lose half their charm if your lace looks as if you had jumped head first into rouge and lipstick pots.
 First of all, make sure that your skin is ineticulously clean. A din- gy dusty complexion never ia pretty. Then use cream rouge ever so sparingly, placing 1t well up on your cheek bones and blending it outward until no rough edges remain. Cover this with powder that matches exact. ly the tone of your skin (nnost women choose shades which are too dark), let 1t set, then dust off the excess.
 Dry your lips before you apply lipstick, let 1t set for Q few mos ments, rub lightly with Q piece of cleansing tissue, then moisten.
 This way, your lips will look fresh, young and delicately color4 ed, instead of heavily painted. And the color will stay on for hours.
 You ought to spend extra time on your hands, too. Rough, red ones certainly aren't pretty. This is Q year when strong and caps able looking hands count for q good deal less than soft, white. feminine varieties such as you read about in love stories.
 Be careful about the nail polish, too. Pinkish, natural and light suntan shades do more to make you pretty than vivid scarlet tones.

The vogue for more feminine, truly pretty clothes calls for na- tural looking makeup and softer hair styles.

Betting and bribery are birds of feather. At
tempts to push a parimutueI betting bill through
the New Jersey legislature show how hard it is to
separate gambling from suspicion of political cor
ruption. The Horseracing Amendment Association
(alas the Association to Legalize Race Track Gam
bing) has been knocking at the doors of the State
House in Trenton for three years
In common with those who have resisted efforts
to foist this pseudo beneficial pastime upon the
statute books of other states opponents of gam
bling in New Jersey have voiced the suspicion that
honest-to-goodness perseverance isn't the only po-
litical persuader employed by betting sponsors.
Rumors have been thick in recent years Take,
for example, the attempt to enact permissve pari-
mutuel betting law in New York state. Newspaper
to whether brides were being distributed by organ
lied bookmakers who control gambling on the New
York tracks, but on the size of the lush fund aeg
eddy raised by bookies to prevent parmutuel spon-
sors from susurpng their Concession"
Charges arising out of the temporary setback
administered to the pari-mutuel gambling bill in
New Jersey put betting and bribery on the same
limb. E. R. Shaw, manager of the Horseracing
Amendment Association, declares he was asked to
contribute $4,000 to have his betting bill favorably
reported out of senate committee. Five senators
have stayed behind in Trenton to act as a special
investigating committee.
At any rate, the fareup has just about cooked
the gamblers goose Whether not the charges
are sustained, sponsors themselves concede that
their spokesmans outburst has given them five
year setback The New Jersey episode runs true to
form. 1t tends to confirm the suspicion borne out
in the dubious history of race-track betting in
America that commercialized gambling and polit
cal corruption are two inseparable birds.-Chris,

tants,, 100000 worth of milk bot
ties are thrown into the garbage

year because the consumers will
not take the trouble to shave the

added to the retail price Of milk.

the public that pays.

CHAPTER ii
When Claire regained h @ 7
senses she was lying on the
ground with coat for a pillow.
A young man was bending over
her, an anxious frown on his face.
For a minute she stared confused
ly, then a smile of recognition
touched her lips.
"Pat Magan?"
He grined. "Sure, the very
same. And what do you think
you're trying to do to yourself
anyway" With one arm he lifted
her to a sitting position, while he
held a flask to her lips. Gust a
swig of this, and you'll feel finer
than frogs hair"
Obediently the girl swallowed
the fiery liquor. Presently she
Strengthened up and looked about
her as another young man came
out of the darkness.

Guess she was just knocked
out for a minute" Pat told him.
