there enough cheese parings, and meat
scraps, to catch any communistic hobo

For two days there was no result

noticed one good-sized piece of stale
cheese missing. Ho, no! Then
made a little trail of other scraps,
left my back screen door open Tor

the garbage pail by the kitchen sink.
I placed a paper can of melted lard

In the puddle of red pepper poured

of the feet, it was plain that Mr.. Rat

- sons, and I hate them. When
my mother was little girl she longed
to play the piano but could not afford
to be taught, so she determined that
l should be musician I have no
talent, but have been made to
grind at it and to practice all these
years. When other little girls were
playing and going out in the after
noon l had to stay in and thump on
the piano, Don't you think that after
eight years Of lessons l should be able
to show some ability If I had any?
I hate to disappoint my mother, but
oh, how loa the the piano! ALICE.
Answer-same here, Alice. My
childhood was also sacrificed to my
parents misplaced ambition that I
should be musician when l could
easier have learned to be a steeple-
jack. /, too, know what it is TO have
to come in from play or to be torn
away from the most thrilling part of
fascinating story to have to prac-
tice for the longest hour in recorded

Canned music may have many
sins to answer for, but all of them
should be forgiven for the millions Of
unmusical and untalented girls who
have been emancipated from taking
piano lessons.
There is something very pathetic in
the desire of mothers to have their
children fulfill their own ungratifed
ambitions. but they should be wise
enough to accept the fact that nature

Authorities agree upon one point; A

CANNES should don their lightest ap-

the question comes in. BY what

My Neighbor Says:

A lawn Is likely to grow very
slowly at this season OF the year
and it is not necessary to use the
lawn mower as frequently as In
the Spring. It is safe to keep
the grass at height Of about 2
| inches.
Thinly-cut slices Of lemon,
busted with paprika and a dash
of celery salt, are good garnishes
for steaks, roasts or fish.
Never add sauce to boiled cab
bage, onions or celery until time
to serve or mixture will become
too watery
Household ammonia will remove
rust stains from copper.
Salt should never be added 10
stews, soups and boiled meats
until after they are cooked. II
put in at first 1t toughens the
fiber Of the meat and takes out
the juices.
