American Federation of Musicians, to
discuss their course of action.

Walter B. Howe, secretary of the
orchestra association, which hires
the musicians, reiterated his state

directors insists upon the right to hire
men from other cities to bolster weak

Few Tricks That Can

Fatigue.
BY ELSIE PIERCE.

60 MANY Of us have lived . life of
suppression, particularly as per-
tains to little things we might have
tried. So many of US would be 80
much the wiser. the lovelier, perhaps
for little self-indulsence sometimes.
For instance, have you ever tried,
when you are SO ''dog-tired" that you
wonder how you're going to pull your
self together and out of bed-have
you ever tried rolling over on the
other side and simply staying in bed
for hours and hours, come what con-
sequences may?
Have you ever tried, If you are
scheduled to be at . party. and not
an especially gay party, and you sus-
pect you'll be bored. but feel for some
reason or other morally obligated to
attend-have you ever tried calling
1t OF. Even II 1t means shocking
some one? Why not telephone, or
have some one telephone for you?
Say you are Ill. II you have to. Better
yet, give an outlandish excuse and
give yourself q pat on the back for it.
Have you ever tried at this time
Of the year to cancel all engagements
for week and making q ritual of
simply resting? It's the best beauty
tonic between Christmas and the big
New Year eve party. Scratch every
thing from your engagement calen.
dar-everything, that Is, except per.
haps q single trip to the hairdresser,
at which time you might also indulge
In facial, manicure and, In fact, "the
whole works."
Have you ever tried changing your
hair style quite radically and your
makeup, too? Have you tried in.
dulging in some silly flipperies, like
gay kerchiefs about the throat, lew.
elry. flowers in your hair, earrings?
Have you tried . turkish bath on
occasion when your bones ache and
your skin feels drawn? And while
ut 1t, have you tried . massage for
your back and arms, IN fact, all Of
you, and . scalp treatment and facial,
manicure and pedicure?
And speaking of turkish baths takes
US to the other extreme. Have you
tried making . habit Of turning the
shower tap from warm to cold, colder
and deliberately standing there until
you're almost numb? You don't want
to shock your system by turning it
on cold full force to begin with, but
gradually get the cold water rushing
over you and the blood rushing up
because Of this stimulation to your
circulatory system.
Have you ever tried taking long
walks when the weather Is cruelty
cold? The longer you walk the less
cold 1t seems. Have you tried spend-
ing your last dollar On . dram Of
perfume or establishing . ''ucnsense

particularly inexpensive to make. but
for that occasional budget blowout" !"
which none Of us can resist, they will
prove q rare and delicious first course
at any dinner.
As to the "file" part Of the first soup,
here Is what the "Picayune-Creole
Cook Book" has to say on the subject:
"EILE' is a powder. first manufac-
tured by the tribes Of Choctaw
Indians in Louisiana from the young
and tender leaves Of the sassafras. The
Indian squaws gathered the leaves
and spread them on q stone mortar
to dry. When thoroughly dried, they
pounded them into q fine powder.
passed them through q hair sieve. and
then brought the file to New Orleans
to sell, coming twice q week to a ia
nous French market from the reserva-
ton set aside for their home on the
Bayou Lacombe. near Vaudeville, La.
The Indians used sassafras and sassa-
fras leaves for many medicinal pur-
poses, and the Creoles. quick to dis
cover and apply, found the possibilities
Of the powdered sassafras, or file. and
originated the well-known dish, gum
bo file.'"
Some specially food stores here in
Washington carry the file powder reg
ularly in stock, for those who wish
to serve the famous New Orleans soup
in their homes.

for about 10 minutes. Add the onion,
parsley and thyme. Stir frequently
to prevent scorching. Heat the oyster
liquor and when the meat mixture
is nicely Drowned add the hot liquor
and the two quarts Of boiling water.
Chop the bay leaf very fine and add
1t, with the pepper pod, cut In half.
Lower the flame and let the mixture
simmer for an hour more. When
almost ready to serve. and while the
soup is boiling. add the oysters. Cook
for three minutes longer and remove
from the fire. Drop the two table,
spoons OF file powder very gradually
into the boiling hot gumbo stirring
well to mix thoroughly. Pour into
a very hot tureen. or heated soup
plates, and serve Immediately, with
boiled rice about two spoonfuls of
rice to one plate Of gumbo. The
rice should be served separately and
added at the table, 1t Is important to
remember that the gumbo must not be
reheated after the file has once been
added. and the rice should never be
DOlleo with the gumbO.
TURKEY GUMBO.
This is made exactly the same as
the above, only the turkey used should
be leftover" The cooked meat is
stripped from the carcass and cut into
pieces to be fried with the ham, as
were the pieces of chicken in the fore
going recipe. After the boiling water
has been added during the cooking
process. throw in the turkey carcass
This should be removed Just before
the oysters are added.
OKRA GUMBO.
An especially delicious soup when
properly made. Clean and cut q fowl
into pieces for stewing. Cut two large
slices OF ham into dice. Chop one
onion with q sprig Of thyme, one bay
leaf and sprig Of parsley. Peel and
chop six large tomatoes, saving the
juice. Wash two pints Of okra and
stem the pieces. Slice them in thin
rounds. Place two tablespoons butter
in q soup kettle. heat and add the
chicken and ham. Simmer, covered,
for 10 minutes. Add parsley. thyme,
onion and bay leaf and the tomatoes.
Stir often. Add the okra. When
Drowned, add the tomato juice. Stir
and watch to see that the okra does
not burn. which it has q tendency to
do. When all Is Drowned nicely, add
three quarts boiling water and simmer
over q slow fire for one hour. Serve
hot with boiled rice. The file powder
is not used with this one.
There are other gumbos. all equally
delicious. but as space is ringing down
the curtain on the column today we
shall have to save those recipes for
another time.

BY ANGELO PATRI,

HERE goes Julian again. never
saw such child. Come in here.
This minute. Haven't I told you not
to hit children7 Every time you do
I'll spank you"
So once more Julian was spanked,
set on the chair In the corner IL, dis.
grace. This had happened about
every day for months. The instant
he saw another child he made for
him. hit him, or kicked him. or pulled
his hair. He even bit some Of them.
Why9 Because wanted to and I'll
do 1t again" That meant another
spanking. The pattern seemed set.
Hit and be spanked, then do it again.
do you always spank him when
he is naughty?"
"Of course. What else could do.
can't have him hitting every child
he sees. Nobody will play with him
All the mothers tell their children to
leave when he comes along. It's not
my fault he behaves like that. I've
done my best"
Sometimes punishment creates the
crime. Children who are beaten beat
others. They accept what their elders
do as standard. They think the thing
to do Is to hit anybody that can be
hit with impunity. Not knowing or
understanding the reason Of their pun
ishment they take it as customary
and pass it along. And 1t gives them
certain satisfaction because in the
hitting they express some of the re.
sentiment they feel in being hit.
Spanking. smart slap. should be
reserved for emergencies. and used in
emergencies only. 1t is like the dogs
bite. He is entitled to one, maybe.
He is all the better dog if he saves
that one. Nobody will hate and fear
him because he was moved by fear or
anger to bite. It would be Just as
well If we remembered that.
Children who feel oppressed by
force. by too much authority. are likely
to turn against those weaker than
themselves and bully them Just for
the feeling of superiority it gives them.
Everybody has to feel superior once q
day II he Is to feel himself ft and
successful. Health Of body and mind
demand it. A child who has no chance
to feel successful. liked, superior in
some way in his own home. will
certainly look for way outside his
home. Usually, because of his lack
OF experience and knowledge, he
chooses a mistaken way Then you
have one Of those fighting children.
Julian, that was a stupid thing
to do. A bright little boy would not
hit another. He would want to have
a friend so he would try to do some.
thing to please the other little boy.
Can't you think of something to do
that would make the little boy think
you we're very nice? It's smart to
make friends"
II the fighting child can get that
idea he will cease to fight. He nights
to gain high place for himself among
his fellows. Show him a better way
out. And don't make the mistake Of
using force on him and so giving him
cause to think he must fight for the
things he wants. The discipline one
exerts upon a child becomes a stand
ard of behavior for that child.

WHEN your guest starts to argue
w politics with your maid over
the cream potatoes, there are only two
things to do. One Is to let them fight
It out. and let yourself enjoy the fray.
There's nothing like a good argument
between q smart guest and q smart
maid. And the other Is to kick the
guest In the shins and signal him to
keep still. If he refuses to obey, you'll
just have to give up having that guest
to dinner.
Now If the maid starts the argument,
the problem becomes little more COM
plicated. You may feel called upon
to reprimand her. But for heavens
sake don't reprimand her in front Of
the guest. It will make him feel as
much like . naughty child as 1t will
her. II you must reprimand, do it in
the privacy Of the kitchen, after the
meal.
Personally we can't see why it should
be such q misdemeanor. whoever start
ed 1t. We should think you'd be glad
you had maid with blood In her veins
instead Of model from the wax works.
But, then there's no accounting for
tastes. JEAN.

Dorothy Dix Says
Women Crave Romance and Are Secretly
Hoping for It Always.

Considering that practically every
man pops the question one or more
times, and some oftener, it Is strange
that they do not develop q technique
in the matter that would satisfy WON.
ems romantic cravings and give them
something to boast of to their grand
children. But they don't They seem
to think that anything goes with
women that has a wedding ring at
tached to it, and they don't put half
as much feeling and imagination in
asking woman to marry them as
they do in ordering a filet mignon or
their favorite cocktail.
MEN can never understand why
women go crazy over the Valen-
tinoS and Clark Gables and Robert
Taylors and why they jam theaters and
movie palaces to see saccharin love
plays. But the answer is that women
have to go to the theater to see pro-
posals made in the way they should be
made.
However, II Is one thing TO criticize
the way some one else does a thing
and 1t is something else vet again to
give star performance in performing
it yourself. This makes of interest the
offer that Actor James Dunn has
made Of prize for the best proposal
from a woman. So far 5000 ladies,
married and single. have entered the
contest, and we await with bated
breath for their theory of how it
should be done.
After having so bitterly excoriated
men for bungling the situation, will
they handle it with more skill? Will
they have more intuition about seizing
the psychological place and hour than
men have? Will they have a better
approach and pave the way with fiat
terry instead of telling the girl that Of
course she isn't good-looking. but she
seems strong and healthy and that Is
what he Is looking for In q wife, as .
man once knew did as preliminary
to asking q woman to marry him?
Will they quote poetry or mention
their income? Will they propose by
letter and thus make q man feel that
he is q mail-order husband? Or will
they realize the value Of proximity
and kiss hot Of the griddle?
Who knows Anyway, 1t will be in.
teresting to see what women consider
a perfect proposal. And one thing Is
certain-however they do 1t, they can't
do 1t worse than men do.
