First Carloads of Grapefruit Cost the Specuato Plenty None
Visiting Not
Good Policy
Best That Children Be
/ in Own Home at
Bedtime.
RY ANGELO PATRI.

CHdLDREN like to stay overnight
~ at each others houses. Just why
It should be such pleasure for them
10 sleep In strange beds in strange
houses, puzzles fathers and mothers
until they remember their own child
hood and their delight in such visits.
The newness. the companionship, the
close intimacy of friendship that
exists between two children are salts
fed by the overnight visit.
But parents do not like to have
their children stay overnight in q
neighbor's house. Instinctively they
feel that home is the place for chill
dren, especially after night falls. The
old feeling of night dangers refuses
to be laid and parents shake their
heads and say, mo, no. Visit in the
daytime We want you home in your
own bed at night"
In spite Of children's tears and pro-
tests I would vote for the home bed
IN preference to the stay-all-night
idea. Little children-and children
of the early teens are still little chill.
dren when it comes to motherly care
ought to be within hearing OF their
fathers and mothers. There is no
telling what may happen in the night.
Ears have a trick of aching unexpect-
edly and so have teeth. Colds show
themselves at night. Night fears
come unexpectedly. Home is best.
This is not to say that an overnight
visit is out of the question. Now and
then, if one knows the household well,
and can trust to the good sense OF the
people in charge. the stay-all-nlght
visit may be granted But one must
know the family very we'll. indeed, to
trust the children to them overnight.
Besides all that it is great RESPONSE
bility for anybody to assume.
Instead of the overnight visit late
bedtime spent with the chosen friend
would help matters. 1t is pleasant
for friends to sit together by the fire,
or the radio, and experience the close
ness OF friendship. 1t is pleasant to
feel this nearness with the rest of
the world, especially the grown-up
world, shut out. Arrange 1t so that
they can have this pleasure now and
then. Leave them alone to talk out
the things that are in their hearts.
Children have vague thoughts and
feelings that strive for expression,
that need expression. 1t is not pos
sible for them to talk freely of these
intimate matters with grown people.
They are very shy about 1t. They are
80 uncertain about what they feel,
about what their feelings. hopes and
dreams and ambitions mean. They
have 50 few words for them. Only
when they are in close touch with
those nearest them are they able to
open their overburdened hearts. They
talk and talk and talk endlessly to
each other. And that is very good
for them.
But when the talk is over, when
their eyelids fall with the weight of
sleep. they should go home to their
own beds under the protection Of their
own fathers and mothers, as lambs go
30 the fold when evening closes over
them. At least that is my notion of it.

and put into hot broiling oven under

Some like hot broiled grapefruit
with the meat course. Some prefer 1t
as an appetizer to start the meal or a
tart dessert for the finish. And some
consider they start the day right with
a hot broiled grapefruit for breakfast
on a cold morning.
"Of course broiling will never sup

For breakfast fruit or dinner appe-

form. as sections or juice. United
States grades for canned grapefruit

! canned juice, both sweetened and un-
sweetened, are under consideration.
There are many beverage uses for
| the canned juice in punches. cocktails
and fruitades. Fresh grapefruit juice
is also easy to serve because of the
mechanical juicers on the market.
Again mindful OF the perishable ma
ture of vitamin C. grapefruit juice
should be squeezed only a short time
before it is wanted, and canned juice
should not be allowed to stand un-
covered in the refrigerator after the
can is opened.
IF you pick out grapefruit with
thin skins and balance them in your
hand, you will find that those heavy
for their size usually have the most
juice. Grapefruit of good quality is
well-shaped, firm, but springy to the
touch-not soft, wilted or fabby.
Judge odd-sfaped fruit chiefly by
weight. Those with pointed stem
ends are troublesome to serve in
halves. The discolored appearance of
the outer skin known as russeting
does not affect the flavor. But II
there is even a small spot Of decay,
it will give an off-f1avor throughout
all the sections; so be wary of any
soft spots in grapefruit"

ment Of Agriculture tells US:
Grapefruit are no longer the bitter,
thick-skinned, some times pithy fruit
of the gay nineties.' The grapefruit
Of 1886 is jucier, tenderer, sweeter, as
result of the superior types which
are now grown. The bitterness which
formerly characterized much of the
fruit has disappeared as a result Of
planting these better varieties. Since
no one has yet produced squirtless
grapefruit, the public has taken to
grapefruit juice instead. Scientists.
and others seeking for good qualities
in grapefruit. in addition to selecting
varieties that are more juicy and ten
der-f1eshed, more resistant to disease.
and better suited to transportation
conditions, have also propagated seed
less and pink-fleshed strains.
IT IS one Of those happy coinci-
dences of science that, just as the
big grapefruit orchards were coming
into bearing. nutritionists were discov-
ering the role of vitamins in the
human diet and the high potency of
citrus fruit in this respect. Grape
fruit, along with oranges and lemons,
rate as excellent in vitamin c and as
fair sources of B and G.
also, in spite of its acid taste,
grapefruit has not an acid, but an
alkaline reaction in the body.
For its vitamin C value alone,
however. grapefruit would be an out
standing food. Each year brings more
convincing evidence that our need for
daily, dependable and generous sup
ply Of vitamin c is imperative. For
the sake of variety. of course, we pre-
fer to get our vitamin c from many
foods. But get it We must, in regular
and abundant quantities
Undoubtedly, vitamin C is very SEN
sitive to heat and to air, especially
the two combined. So it is to the
credit of the grapefruit that we usually
eat it raw. And, know it or not, we
are preserving not only flavor, but
vitamin c when we wait until the last
minute before a meal to cut, core and
slip sharp knife around the juicy
sections. If you let the fruit stand
with cut surfaces exposed to the air,
it is surprising. the chemists say. how
much of the vitamin C will be lost.

Fun to Be
Beautiful"
Campaign
Making the Most Of
Good Points Can Be
Interesting.
BY ELSIE PIERCE.

ABOUT two years ago. quite by
accident ! started an cts fun"
campaign. While on q lecture tour,
I happened to be speaking before q
group Of college women. At the end
Of the talk, I asked for questions"
as usual. One sharp-looking young
thing wanted TO know what found
the greatest fun-meaning what did
I find most interesting-in this buSi-
ness Of preaching beauty. For
minute she had me stumped because
to me it is all so profoundly inter-
esting. But I did answer that the
greatest fun Is in reforming a very
conservative woman who refuses 10
use any makeup, who is almost dovdy
in her dress and old-fashloned In the
way she wears her hair-take that
woman and actually show her what
magic she can work with her own
will and a little guidance. of course.
Well, that started an its fun"
session. A member Of the faculty
volunteered that "it's fun to see the
change in attitude on the part OF
our schools today toward beauty In
general and the matter Of makeup
in particular"
Another lecture brought me before
. group of more mature women; busi.
ness, professional women and home
builders. I told them about the fun
started at the college lecture and
challenged them to think Of tits
fun" slogans instead of asking the
usual question. 1t was fun listen
ing to them. They displayed such
spirit and interest. 1t was one of
the liveliest sessions Of my career.
One woman said, "1t's fun to tell
your age providing you don't
look it. People cape at you a9d say
not really and it just thrills the
woman in you no end"
The woman had two grown sons.
was As, looked poised, mature and
charming: but not a day older than
| 35. Small wonder she found it fun
to admit her birthdays.
Then I went to salesgirls behind
them. And in spite of their hard
work and often far-from-happy exc
periences they admitted that it was

when originally she had merely asked

she did not even know what she
wanted or needed.
And I went to beauty salon opera
tors who said the whole business of
| beauty was fun for there's nothing
more gratifying than seeing woman
walk out years younger and lovelier
than she came in.
In the mail recently I received a
letter from one Of the college women
tnow grad who listened to that
memorable cts fun" lecture. She
had been reading my articles. she
said. and wanted to know why

Of good food that he doesn't want to

Second. Be your own press agent

are he will never find it out for him.
self. Every husband takes his wife
at her own valuation.
Third. Slap on the soft soap with
liberal hand. The reason nine hus-
bands out of ten stray is to get away
from the critics on the hearth, who
make them feel like worms of the
dust, to sirens who chant without
ceasing: How big and great and
wonderful you are!"
FOURTH. Lend your husband your
ears. Laugh at his Jokes. Listen
to his stories. Give him the glad
hand, and when the Joneses drop
In OF an evening, or you are at the
smiths dinner, ask him to tell that
perfectly corking yarn about that
time he went fishing when he was
little boy. Nobody ever heard of
a man voluntarily leaving a wife who
was his most appreciative audience.
Fifth. Build up the fiction that
your husband Is the head of the
house. Ask his advice about every
thing you do. Consult his taste. Let
him think that he has originated
all the ideas that you have implanted
in his mind. 1t will please him and
be profitable for you. For, after you
make the gesture of difference to your
husband, you can do as you please
He will never notice the difference.
Sixth. Don't always be Sally-on-
the spot. Don't always be under
foot. Don't try to keep your hus-
band tied to your apron strings. DOM t
make your husband drag you around
with him wherever he goes. Give
| him q vacation now and then. Give
him q chance to miss you and realize
how lonesome and lost he would be
without you. It is because men can
no more stand being fed up on mat
rimony than they can eat 80 quails
In 80 days that there Is so much
divorce. DOROTHY DIX.

The Importance of Pearls.

The vogue for pearls that seems to
sweep the world is not a new one.
Pearls have long been in favor, but
in this generation are having their
first fling.
One strand, two strands. three
strands, for day time. morning, after
noon and night. Pearls with sweat
ers, pearls with tweeds and wools, and
the contrast is startling, making the
tweed seem rougher and the pearl
more delicate and fragile. Tiny pearl
bandeaux are worn by debutantes, and
necklaces of beautifully matched
pearls make coming-out present or
a bridal gift that will never be out of
fashion.
The older woman wears pearl en-
sembles. Schiaparelli wore a hand
some diamond and pearl rose with
three shades of gold leaves on her
tweed suit and later it appeared as
an evening jewel.

4 they understand themselves
and isn't that the big laugh?-as-
serts that he has isolated the six
cardinal sins of wives which are re-
sponsible for virtually all domestic
discord, and that if women would
avoid them they would put the divorce
courts out of business. Here are Mr..
Morgan's priceless tips for holding a
husband:
First. ''Never ask husband where
he has been. If he has been out on
legitimate business he needs no alibi.
If he hasn't, it is your fault because
you aren't woman enough to keep him
home.
Second. "Never keep a husband
waiting. When he starts watching
the clock he stops watching you with
interest.
Third. "Never make up in public.
Men like to have their wives admired,
but don't like others to see their beau
tifying process.
FOURTH. "Never baby man when
= he is. in the dumps, or fail to dc
so when he is sick. When a man has
the blues he likes to be left alone to
enjoy them. but he loves to be PAM
pered when he is really Ill.
Fifth. "Never let man see you not
at your best. Cold cream on woman's
face puts the chill on love affairs.
Sixth. "Never talk about your other
loves. Your man may not care whether
he is the only one in your life or not
but in any case he doesn't want to be
told about the others"
No doubt these are excellent rules
for holding husbands affections
and any woman who could suppress
her curiosity about where her husband
had been when he rolled In with the
milkman In the morning; who never
kept her husband cooling his heels
while she put on her hat; who never
had to renew her war paint: whc
could look her best when she hao

children; who never reminded hel

BRUNO'S DEATH
DATE|S JAN. II
PardonS Court to Consider
Plea for Mercy
Saturday.
By United Press

BY Lntted Press
TRENTON, N. j., Jan. 7.-State
prison attendants indicated today
that Bruno Richard Hauptmann is
to be executed the night of Jan. II
unless the Court of Pardons grants
him reprieve or communication.
Principal Keeper Mark o. Kim
berling had set the execution for
Jan. a. but postponed it shortly
after Gov. Harold G. Hoffman an
nounced late yesterday that the
Court of Pardons would not meet
until Saturday
Mr.. Kimberling said he changed
his plans because the Legislature
convenes on the fourteenth, but the
late date of the courts meeting was
believed to have influenced him.
Hauptmanns attorneys almost
certainly will attempt, if the par
dons court refuses clemency, to OBJ
tain a writ of habeas corpus from
Federal court to enable them to
make another appeal to the Su-
preme court.
The Court of Pardons, of which
Gov Hoffman is presiding officer,
has power to order a reprieve or to
commute the sentence to imprison-
ment by majority vote. The Gov
ernor has power to veto a commu-
tation or reprieve, but his vote car
ries only the weight of one mem
Der of the court if the majority up
holds the trial courts sentence.
Attorneys have completed prepa-
rations for complete review of the
case before the mercy court. c..

counsel, reasserted he has new evil
dence that he believes will win a
reprieve
