Invitations
For the Sub
Deb Dance
Engraved "Fill = In
Forms Not Likely
to Mislead.
BY EMILY POST.

NEAR MRS. POST: My husband
and I would like to give a small
dance for our daughter who is of sub
debutante age, and the question of
proper form for invitations has come
up. If We have them engraved Mr..
and Mrs. request the pleasure of your
company at dance in honor of their
daughter :" won't this invitation
suggest that we are bringing our
daughter out at this dance? We would
not like to create this impression?
It seems that all the invitations my
son receives to debutante parties are
worded this way, but it is also true
that my husband and I receive in
vitations to older parties also in this
same wording.
Answer-An invitation such as you
suggested and also the one in which
the daughters name appears immedi-
ately under that of the parents does
mean that she is ''out or is to be pre-
Sented at the party. On invitations
to parties given for younger daughters
it would be better to have forms en-
graved, if you do not already have
them, which are intended to be filled
in. These same forms are used for
dinners or other occasions, which do
not require large enough number to
have an especially worded invitation
engraved. Your daughters name
would simply be written across the top.

DEAR MRS. POST: My husband
~ has long held a public Office in
this town and in consequence we have
met many people whom we believe
would be interested to know that we
are going to make our home in a
distant town. May send our visiting
cards to long local list of names,
writing P. P c. on them, and could
these cards include our future address
rather than the present one, which we
are giving up permanently?
Answer-Utility suggests that you
might change the usual procedure of
writing P. P. c. on cards which you
are now using and instead write on
those which carry your future ad-
dress. However. unless you in some
way make this clear, people receiving
them may not notice the change. AS
suggestion, you might have this
number of cards engraved with the
name of the town on the line below the
street address, and then on the cards
which you have made up for other
uses simply omit it, since visiting
cards do not usually include any more
than the street address.

Dorothy Dix Says
A Woman Wants An Impossible Com
bination in a Husband

her henpecking and let her pick out
his church, his politics and his neck
ties. She wants a husband who will
think it worth while to support nice
home, but who will not be foolish
enough to think that he has a right
to any say-so about his furnishings or
decoration, or even aspire to have any
place in 1t in which he can do as he
pleaSeS.
She wants a husband who will be
willing to step out If she feels like
going 70 a place of amusement, but
who would not dare even to go to the
movies alone. She wants husband
who will be grateful for having all Of
his habits changed and his tastes
meddled with and who will realize
how blest he is in having a wife who
will not let him eat the things he likes,
or read in bed, or indulge in any Of the
amusements he enjoys.
r II II \
CHE wants q husband who will give
- the glad hand to all Of her friends,
while she feeds his on cold shoulder
until they cease coming to see old Bill
any more. She wants a husband who
will make mother and the girls well
come whenver they come on nice
long visit, but who will see how it is
so inconvenient she can't possibly have
his mother and sisters even come for
a night. She wants a husband who
will be a good father to his children,
who will save and deny himself to
give them everything they want, but
who will not think of assuming any
authority over them, or correct them,
or discipline them.
In a word, a woman wants hus-
band who Is a combination lover,
moneymaker, diplomat, martyr and
saint that she can at once respect,
revere and push around, and there
isn't any such a man. There never
was and there never will be. And that
is why women never really find their
soul mates. DOROTHY DIX.

Still Holds
Spotlight
Fashion Authorities
Predict It Will Lead
Easter Parade.
BY MARY ELIZABETH PLUMMER.

BY MARY ELIZABETH PLUMMER.
NEW YORK, R-There's a new
dress silk with the name "Wally," "
printed on 1t in an all-over pattern.
There's another inscribed with the
names of movie stars.
But the plain, conservative old hardy
perennial-the navy blue suit-will be
as popular as ever when Spring rolls
round, although many women are
going to step out in Americas Easter
parade clad in spell-binding prints
and bright plaids.
How much navy blue are we show
ing? Oh, the usual amount" say the
exquisitely groomed assistants in
mirrored salons where mannequinS are
showing off new clothes to out-of-
town buyers.
At Nettie Rosenstein's opening, dark
blue seemed the leading color for
street wear.
10 Copeland showed an equal
amount of black, dark blue and gray.
In Helen Cookman's collection Of
softly tailored Spring coats, navy and
black ran close race.
The navy blue suit and coat of
1937-as usual-have a new look that
makes last years suit seem quite out
of date. It's partly because of the
shorter suit-skirts-most of the de-
signers agree on 13 inches from the
ground-partly because Of the new
squared shoulder, the simmer sill
houette, the new accent" shades
sulphur yellow" earth red" car
nelian red"
Little open-crowned hats mere
"halo" bands wound with the same
dark blue as the suit-add another
new note. Worn with the new collar
less dark blue coat, slim and fitted.
and dark blue sandals. they are per-
feet for the Easter parade.
White gloves and white crownless
turbans are shown with many blue
suits. Other navy ensembles have ac-
cessories of sulphur yellow, a color
similar to chartreuse.
More new notes with navy:
Trimmings of natural pigskin leath-
er; gay checked taffeta coat Innings
which show when the coat swirls open;
brilliant floral prints under plain wool
coats; knife-pleated plaid skirts under
dark blue jackets.

TT IS always the right time to plan
a cruise, if you see a chance
Of breaking away from the daily
Il routine and can manage to scrape
together the where -with-all." Short
cruises are rapidly becoming one OF
the most popular forms of relaxation
and recreation not only for those
whose leisure makes them restless, but
for busy executives who find that such
an escape from city madness gives
them a lift just when they need it
most and brings them back refreshed,
to tackle the problems with renewed
zest and a perfectly marvellous dis
position.
If there is woman concerned in
this cruise trip (and, of course, there
would be-, her mind leaps way beyond
the mere details of maps, schedules
and tickets to the more important
problems of smart clothes and lug
gage, for how could she possibly enjoy
herself without the satisfaction Of
knowing that outward appearances
we're to be quite correct and to her
taste. So while friend husband goes
to the travel bureau and collects a
lot of folders, his wife rushes madly
to look at the latest luggage and plans
to buy those few, but exactly right
clothes that will take her from Winter
into Summer and back again in the
smartest possible way.
What did she discover about lug
gage? She found that a whole de-
partment of assorted trunks, suit
cases, bags, gladstones, dufhe bags,
upper rolls in endless shapes and
sizes is rather bewildering and it is
necessary to call on the knowledge Of
the salesman for help In deciding
what Is best for the type Of trip
that has been decided upon.
IF 1T Is to be a short cruise or a
short stay at Southern resort, the
ideal luggage choice is a three-piece
ensemble consisting Of q large and
small suit case and a large hat case
with tray and shoe pockets plus your
very personal smaller cosmetic case
that may or may not contrast in color
and texture with the other three
pieces.

MICHAEL, aged 3, stood patiently
A'A while his sweater was slipped
over his head, his cap firmly fixed on

his pocket and kiss planted on his
rosy cheeks. Free at last, he took
his spade and little wagon and went
gleefully out to play with Donald. also

weather and bearing spade.
"Come on over" called Michael.
"Im coming" yelled Donald. and
rushed across the lawn brandishing
his weapon. Without further warn
ing he brought it down hard on
Michaers head. Stunned and fright
ened and in pain, the little lad ran
for home and mother. Hearing his
cries, his mother was out before he
reached the door and had him In her
arms before he could sob out his
story.

IT wouldn't like to think that,
Michael. I'll go over and see what
he has to say about it."
Before she could ring the bell Don
AIDS mother had the door open. She
greeted Michaers mother with a re-
assuring smile. II saw what Donald
did to Michael. I hope he didn't hurt
him much. He Is such hard little
citizen that really don't know what
to do with him. We don't want to
curb his high spirits and make little
sissie of him, you know. Why doesn't
Michael fight back? He had a spade
in his own hand. Why did he run
away? That will only make Donald
chase him the next time"
"You mean to say that there will
be a next time?" Michael's mother
looked sternly at the smiling lady
who had suggested a battle with
spades between two 3-year-old babies.
There must never be another time.
I will never allow Michael to strike
another child with any sort of weapon.
He can use his hands, but never a
deadly weapon like a spade. shall
see that he plays with other children
hereafter"
All little children fight. They have
to be trained not to do so, which takes
quite a wilhelm fact, the span of
years that covers their development
from little unreasoning creatures to
children of reason. In the meantime
all weapons are sternly prohibited.
The child who uses his tools as weap-
ons must be deprived of them. Take
away his spade or his bat and give
him a rubber ball. He can have
nothing else until he reaches the
stage of understanding that rules out
weapons.
When next-door neighbor children
fight that is what has to be done.
Don't smile at the hard little citizen.
He might grow into harder one later
on and cause you grief untold. Train
him to be an understanding, Coop
erative child, holding his own when
there Is need, yielding when there is
that need, but never using weapons
to win his cause. Self-defense does
not require that sort of thing.

ton to inquiries from parents and
school teachers on the care and de-
velopment Of children. Write him in

"HE reason that no woman has

Proper Cooking of Meats.

Braising, boiling, simmering and
stewing are the cooking processes to
use for less tender cuts Of meat.
Although they are less expensive,
these cuts are no less nutritious than
more costly ones. Try soaring the
meat first in small amount Of fat.
Such q process gives added flavor and
a good color. Vegetables and sea-
sonings may be added later. But the
most important thing is to remember
that a little water and long. slow
cooking are needed to break down
the meat nbers and make them tender.

a chemical point of view. They are
all good. usually inexpensive, easy to
cook, and contain a wealth of min
erals, vitamins and so forth. The
actual and acknowledged branches of
the family are, green, white, red and
savoy cabbage; collards, kale, brus-
sells sprouts, broccoli, cauliflower.
kohlrabi, petSai and chihli. Among
them the thrifty and clever house
wife will choose those that are in
season, and also in the best con-
dition. In selecting certain of these
vegetables, the bureau has this to say:
Brussels sprouts, which look like
cabbage in miniature, grow up the
length of the plant stalk which is
sometimes 80 inches long. The market
season begins in September and ex-
tends through the Winter until
April or May, but the sprouts
are at the height of their season
from october to January. AS they
are picked by hand and are usually
packed in quart or pint berry boxes,
they command higher price than
cabbage. We associate Brussels
sprouts with holiday menus not only
because Of the cost, but also because
of their delicate flavor and attractive
appearance.
"a quart basket Of brussels sprouts
will make four or five servings. When
OF good quality these attractive little
balls are firm, compact, of fresh,
bright appearance and good green
color. When looking, they are
edible, but the quality and flavor are
poor. Those that are wilted or have
yellowed leaves are usually old or
stale. They will be wasty to prepare.
In buying brussels sprouts avoid any
indications Of worm injury or plant
lice.
4 CAULIFLOWER appears on the
market in greatest abundance in
the late Summer or early Fall and is
shipped from different sections of the
country all Winter. The amount
grown varies from year to year. Last
year 1t was not more than one-sixth
Of the cabbage crop. So the price Of
cauliiower keeps this vegetable among
the more exclusive members Of the
Brassica clan unless there happens to
be a season Of heavy production.
Fine quality in cauliflower is indi-
Gated by a white or creamy white,
clean, heavy, firm, compact 'curd,' or
flower head. The jacket, or outer
leaves, which protect the head should
be fresh. firm and green. A compact,
clean curd means a minimum of waste
and such head is easily prepared for
cooking. The size of the head has
nothing to do with maturity. Large
and small heads may be equally ma
ture.
Richness Is the term used to de-
scribe the granular appearance when
the f1owerets Of caulif1ower have be-
gun to grow. 1t Is not Objectionable
If not too far advanced. Yellow leaves
may indicate staleness or age, but are
not important If the curd is otherwise
Of good quality. Avoid spotted,
speckled or bruised curds and the
presence Of plant lice.

Giant Craft Swings Grace fully Toward Mooring

SCREAMS ARE HEARD

Dazed Persons Are Seen in Wreckage Attempting
 to Escape Death

LAKEHURST, N.J., May z. The crash of the Zeppe- lin Hindenburg, early last eve ming. will be remembered to their dying day by the com paratively small crowd gath cred to what was considered a routine arrival of the giant ship.
 Spectators were watching the big craft approach the mO0ring mast and the ground crew had lines in hand ready to carry the ship to a safe landing.
 Sud d enly there was 3 flame, then an explosion and in lightning time the Zeppe- lin was enveloped in a fiery mass.
 Screams could be heard, al though the craft was 200 feet up in the air.
 Then a body would be seen to leap, and then another, then the Zeppelin came down suddenly.
 As the huge ship struck, dazcd persons could be seen in the flames pushing through the fire and wreckage to es- cape.
 Spectators and members of the ground crew rushed to the scene and assisted those reaching safety.
 Ambulances were quickly on the scene carrying the moaning, some screaming, victims to nearby hospitals.
 The scene was horrible, the giant Zeppelin a mass of twisted steel, a collapsed framework, the cries of the dying and injured. Even strong men nearly collapsed attempting rescue work.
