MOTHERS APPAREL
Dear Mrs. Beeck1nan:

Dear Mrs. Beeckman:
MY mother is to celebrate her
twenty-fifth wedding anniveFN
sary next month. I would like
to know if a gray dress and sil'
yer accessories would be the
proper color for a woman So
years of age to wear?
1.-THE daughters would like to
wear light blue with silver &C.
cessories. Please give me your
opinion. DAUGHTER"
It isn't the age of a woman
that determines whether or not
gray is proper" for her; it's
her type and especially her
coloring. To my way of think
ing gray is one of the most diff.
ficult colors to wear, and the
girl or woman who wears 1t
should have vibrant color in her
face and eyes.
Otherwise gray is apt to look
dead" Don't select gray for
your mother simply to have the
Silver-and-gray color-Scheme ap.
propriate for the silver ami
verSary. -,
If some other shade is more
becoming, don't limit yourself to
gray. Consider light beige,
a pinkish beige that CLOVIS, or q
lovely soft blue, or rich bur-
gundy.

fall. I will have a very small
home or church wedding. I
would like to send out some an.
nouncements to my close friends,

We lived with them until five
years ago, when mother remar-
ried. However, I continued to

Under these circumstances,
should my grandparents (both

(FGmouS Authority on Problems
of Loue and MGrriGge)
Dear Miss Fairfax:
Last winter I had an attack
of grippe, and before I recov"
cred from that had bronchitis.
I had to stay in bed for over
two months, and couldn't seem
to stop growing. am now Is
years old and am 6 feet 4
inches.
MY hands and feet seem
strange to me, like Alice in
Wonderland's -they're such a
long way off. Everyone laughs
at me, and my brother calls me
boob for trying to get a
girl to go out with me.
Altogether, I'm sensitive, I'M
happy and victim of the we'll
known inferiority complex.
What would you do about
this?
TALL YOUNG MAN"
You've probably outgrown
your strength, and I shouldn't
do anything about it at the
present time. Stay out in the
fresh air, eat nourishing food
and take moderate sun baths;
not enough to burn you badly,
which isn't good at all.
After a while, you'll get used
to your long-distance hands and
feet, and probably find your
self the most popular boy in the
bunch, because girls like tall
men. You, of course, have the
privilege. of laughing back at
people who find your sudden
growth funny.
This will also answer B. L.
who also is troubled about be-
ing tall.

Br0iIed Steak Requires
Use of Plenty of Butter
CHILDREN
Mothers often
Lack Patience
BY GLADYS BEVANS

Instead Of writing on any one
subject today I think it might be
helpful to this mother and
others If I used with some
changes) as the hub of our at
tention, a letter which is like a
number of others I receive
some from working mothers
and some from women who are
at home all the time.
MY Dear Mrs. BevanS: I
have a little boy two years old
who is exceptionally bright. He
thinks he knows much more
than his nurse and mother.
81 go to business and have
very little patience to take care
of the child, and so employ a
trained nurse just for his care.
He is problem child in his
eating. I had him to several
specialists as he is quite thin,
but doctors tell me that chill
dren as bright as my little boy
never eat well. They keep
thinking of other things to dis.
tract their attention.
my nurse finds that by Scold-
ing him, she gets more out Of
him. 1 do not want the child to
grow up being scolded and
afraid. He needs a person with
a world of patience; my nurse
has at times; but at other
times the child gets impossible
and he needs either a Scolding
or some other kind of punish
ment which is worse.
THANK you for any help you
may give me-"
ADORE GROWNUPS
Let us see if we can consider
eaC.I punt IN way that will be
helpful, even if it must be brief:
% A little child of two
doesn't really think he knows
more than his mother or nurse.
On the contrary, small children
adore their grown-ups and love
to look up at them.
It's Just that he has certain
normal desires and isn't man.
aged so that he can crafty
them, within reason. His real
needs are misunderstood or
frustrated.
co A tired mother who has
worked all day often hasn't pa
thence with her child, especially
if the child has been badly man
aged throughout the day. What
is needed here is a different
method on the nurses part, or a
different nurse.
The mother should try to
manage so that she herself can
hop into a warm bath when she
gets home from work, slip into
a house dress and then, re-
freshed, have a little time with
her small son. Week-endS
should be happy times for a
working" mother and child.
NO REASON FOR IT
90 There is not the slightest
reason why a bright child
should be thin or eat badly.
Exceptionally bright children
are usually we'll formed, well
nourished, and above average
in size.
This child probably needs more
calmness in his grown-ups, a
rest or quiet period before meals,
and of course a nap in his room
dr~'or +ho Toy.
az A little two-year-old is the
easiest thing in the world to
:. Seeding and punish
roant have no place here. All
that is needed here is an insight
into his needs and his desires,
and an understanding Of how to
satisfy them.

Take six large hard apples
and cook them until soft. Mash
them so there will be no Jumps;
add one tablespoon of butter,
two tablespoons of sugar.
While they are still warm add
a little cinnamon. Let the apples
cool; stir in three beaten eggs
and put in a buttered casserole
without cover, and bake until
brown.
BROILED STEAK
Have a steak about an inch
thick. When the broiler is hot,
put in the steak and turn con-
stantly from side to side.
Continue this for eight to ten
minutes. 1t depends on the size
of the steak. Have a hot dish
for the steak and butter the
meat well.
It will Immediately melt be-
tween the heat of the steak and
the heat of the dish. Sprinkle
the steak lightly with salt and
pepper and turn and season
on the other side and serve.
(Often the broiler Is creased
with butter when the meat is
very lean.)
JAM SLICES
Cut slices of bread. Remove
the crust and a little of each
corner to give the slices a nice
shape. Spread the bread with
your favorite jam and cover
with another slice of bread.
Moisten each sandwich with a
little red wine (Which has pre-
viously been boiled with a lit
tie sugar, a few cloves and
lemon peeD. Now brush the
bread with volk of an egg and
dust with very light color bread
crumbs.

INSULATION-Now that you're
about to start the furnace again,
don't forget boilers and heating
pipes should be covered with a
good grade of insulation. If the
handy man in the family can do
it well-all right: but it's wise to
hire a competent workman. The
reason for such insulation is not
only to conserve heat on it's way
to radiators or vents but principal
ly to prevent fire where pipes are
near wood.
CONCRETE-Now is just as
good a time as any other to buy a
bit Of cement to repair the garden
walk or lay a Few floor in the
basement. Cement work can be
done at any time indoors, and out
doors except when it is freezing.
Don't believe people who say you
can't handle concrete in cold
weather. You can. unless the

they will actually increase the
