Etiquette
Best to Turn
Other Cheek
ByMRS.CORNELIUs BEECKMAN

Dear Mrs. Beeckman:
Recently 1 gave a former teacher
Of mine a gift, and as yet 1 have
received no thank-yOu for it, al
though see her occasionally.
Incidentally, her attitude to.
ward me on the street and else
where is quite cool and Indifferent.
Kindly inform me what ! should
do under the listed questions.
"If / happen to talk with her,
should 1 mention the gift as a mat.
ter of course? Should / ask her
why she is so in different toward
me? Or should / ignore her openly
as she has done to me, or express
my opinion to her personally?
&C."
Many things might have hap.
pened to prevent the delivery OF
your gift, and I see no reason why
you should not ask this teacher if
she did receive your gift. First
erase from your mind any inclina-
ton to question her about her at
titude toward you.
Don't let any bitterness enter
your mind. Don't ignore her
openly" or express your opinion
of her personally" Only social
amateurs do this. unrnannerly and
ungracious sort of thing-it gets
us nowhere to descend to question.
ing another'S attitude toward us.
The thing to do, the construc-
tive thing to do, is to be gracious,
dignified, trying to understand
why without asking why.
The Bible is right about this
turning the other cheek. :"
and being so pleasant and agree
able about it that the other per.
son will at least respect us, is a
pretty good idea when we are
thrust in such a situation as the
one in which you find yourself.
Snippy words, harsh words,
determination to tell her what I
think of her"-this kind of at
titude is poisonous. Keep in mind
that grand social word adapt
able" and keep your graclousneSs
and understanding fluid.
Keep the wheels of your life
oiled; don't let them clog with the
fighting back, motif. Think
on these things" and when you
meet this teacher be kind ana
generous in your attitude.
Say to her, for instance, How
do you do, Miss Allen, I'm so glad
to see you. And did want to ask
you if you ever received a present
that I sent you a few weeks ago.
If you didn't, I wanted to seno
tracer about it"

and tonic qualities.
In presenting this type of beer
the breweries are only following
an ancient German custom. In
the old German town of Eimbeck,
the breweries always present to
their customers an extra fine beer
during the spring. They did this
as a special favor.
The beer now known as 'bock"
beer takes its name from the last
syllable of the town.
Many believe that the book beer
is the dregs or the brew of
inferior brew but I was assured
by local brew masters that this
was wrong.
It is really a superior type and
is the first brew after the vats
are cleaned. It's distinctive taste
comes from the special prepare
tion of mash" Roasted malt and
caramel malt are used. This
gives the beer a rich mellow taste.
The goat that is pictured on
the outside of the. kegs comes
from the German word beck"
After the supply Of book beer
soon available on the market is
exhausted, there will be no more
made for another year.
When you are planning your
informal parties, you will want to
have in the icebox a sufficient
supply of the beer. Since it is
richer than the ordinary brew, it
is more filling.
While book beer Is the top for
the spring beverage, beer should
also be included in the culinary
workshop. Beer is used in prepar-
ing many types of dishes. The
flavor of the malt or hop is con-
sidered something very special.
Several recipes for its use in
cooking have been featured on the
food page from time to time. It
may be used in many meat dishes
in place of water. Ham baSted
with beer is good.
Beer may be used in soups, added
to hot sauces, served on meat or
fish. Beer or ale is necessary for
an excellent rarebit. Beer and
cheese sauce also delicious on fresh
asparagus. This beverage may be
heated successfully during the
preparation of these dishes. None
of the flavor is lost in the process.
When you are featuring a cheese
plate, on your buffet supper, gar.

serve cut in cubes.
For the snack supper party, beer
bread is also possibility. The
slices of the bread are soft and
moist and have the subtle tang
of the malt. This recipe Is
adapted from an old German
recipe:

Clear Hand Lotion

clear Hand Lotion
THERE are many creamy
Il hand lotions on the market,
but few of clear type which
is much quicker drying. We
find that one of them out
sells its sister product of the
creamy type by far, even
though it is more expensive.
They are both made by a
famous house which you know
well, and the clear lotion has
properties which make it a |
great favorite. It is called |
Transparent Hand Lotion,
and is a complete beauty
treatment for the hands. It
has emollient oils which safe
guard the skin of the hands,
and replenish natural oils
which are dried out by the
sun, wind and cold, and by
too much use of harsh soaps
and water. 1t keeps the hands
soft and smooth, is so quick
drying that you may put on
gloves right over it, and gives
your hands their beauty the
minute you put it on. You
can use it regularly and often,
day or night, and if you do
housework, tipping, drive a
car, or do any of the other
things that are hard on hands,
it will take away the signs of
work. 1t is $1.10.

THIS LOVELY gown will

THIS LOVELY gown will
be a delightful assurance of
gay evenings throughout the
spring and summer. It is
beautifully cut, with full
skirt, low V neckline and
little cap sleeves, and is
reminiscent of the romantic
gowns that have inspired so
many fashions this season.
The material is Chinese en-
broidery on ivory net, and
the lovely close pattern Of
the embroidery suggests a
lace design. The sash is in
violet, and the huge flowers
are shaded from violet to
pale orchid. It's a gown that
will be equally lovely for a
debutante or for her mother.

"A SOLDIER FALLEN, HIS FACE
 TO THE BATTLE"

The Democratic Administration has suffered tremendous loss in the sudden death of Senator Jo- seph T. Robinson of Arkansas majority leader in the Senate and the man upon whose shoulders has fallen much of the burden of handling the New Deal pro- gram in Congress, and the nation has lost brilliant statesman; a faithful guardian always of the public welfare.
 Few men have made a more enviable record in public life than the Senator from Arkansas Since his advent into public life until his untimely death he revealed steadfast loyalty to American ideals and Democratic principles political warrior of the first water, in victory defeat he carried forward for thosc ideals and those principles Thoroughly routed when he ran for the Vice Presidency with Alfred E. Smith the standard bearer in 1928 he went on backed with the confidence of the people to become bigger figure in national life than had he moved into the second highest office in the land
 AS President Roosevelt aptly put it. "a soldier has fallen, his face to the battle" Joe Robinsons face was always to the battle and political friend and political enemy alike will both say that his philosophy to fight the good fight honest heart sincere principle. No fitting tribute can be paid to any man.
 The principles for which Senator Robinson fought will prevail sound principles always have prevailed Despite such hysterca utterances that attributed to Senator Burton K Wheeler of Montana-"I beseech the President to drop the court fight lest he appear to fight against God'-the battle for better tence that Joe Robinson led and believed in will go forward and his influence will long be felt in support of the general program. Senator Wheeers implied thought to rally the Almighty against the court plan compared with the record of the mourned Senator Robinson reveals the difference between member of the Senate and statesman Senator Robinson was in every respect statesman.
 
 Death of Senator Robinson again calls attention to the evergrowing pressure of modern existence on our public men, The constant strain under which the leaders compelled to carry under the force of our more complex living takes annually heavy toll. In the last couple of years the nation has lost the late Speaker Byrnes of Tennessee Connery of Massa- chusetts Bachman of Tennessee, Stubbs of Cafor- nia Lloyd of Washington, just to mention few.
 The cost to the human being for effective public service appears to be mounting and the time may come as our tempo increases, that steps will have
