Attendants

DEAR MRS. POST: I'm afraid mine
is very unusual problem. had
my wedding arranged. having my sis
ter and friend exactly her size walk
as bridesmaids; my sister, however.
taking over the duties Of the maid Of
honor. A second friend, very muck
bigger than either of these girls. came
to me the other day and said, "Oh,
Mary, I'm certainly to be in your wed-
ding party?" and in my embarrass-
ment I didn't say no. If she walks
alone. others will believe she is my
attendant of honor. which would not
be fair to my sister; and yet, these
two friends together will certainly look
like Mutt and JEFF. What would you
suggest that l do short Of eloping?
Answer-Perhaps the best way out
now is to order another dress exactly
like those you have chosen and let
the odd girl. who is so tall, walk alone.
after the ushers instead Of immedi-
ately preceding you. This fact, adde's
to the obvious one that your sister
will take her place beside you and hold
to every one that she, and not the one
alone, is your maid of honor. Also
when you give the news of the we'd
ding to the papers you will naturally
describe your sister as having been
your maid of honor. OF course, this
is one of those times when frankness
on your part would have been the best
solution, but really think it will work
out very well as it is.

Sunday Supper Dish.

Creole eggs are among top-ranking
favorites for late evening refresh
ments, after -theater parties. etc. 1t is
the type of dish favored by many
celebrities who like to cook, informally,
for their friends.
One especially savory recipe for this
truly Southern dish uses dozen quar-
tered. hard-cooked eggs to one can of
tomatoes, three small onions and two
sweet green peppers chopped fine. one
half cup of sliced ripe olives and sea-
soning to taste of salt, pepper, butter
and a small amount of flour.
Begin preparations by browning a
tablespoon of -four in two tablespoons
of butter. Mix with the tomatoes,
finely chopped onions and pepper and
heat until well blended and the
onions and peppers are partially ten
der. Add the remaining ingredients,
stirring lightly to prevent breakage of
the quartered eggs. Pour into but
tered baking dish. Cover with grated
cheese and bake in a moderate oven
until we'll heated through and slightly

Above all, the modern mother saves
herself from committing the crime Of
being possessive mother. The old
fashioned mother thought that YOU
couldn't love a child too much and
cling too closely to it. The modern
mother knows that mother love can
be the greatest curse that can befall
a child. 1t can block its opportuni-
ties, stifie its ambition, thwart ks
love impulses and ruin It's whole life,
therefore she is continually on her
guard against enslaving her children
to her affections. Wherefore, for these
and other reasons, contend that the
fapper mother is better mother than
the old-fashioned one.
