Mr. Melton goes on, I'VE serve these with
Fried Chicken en- Casserole"
This was the dish which James selected for
US. Shima, the indispensable Japanese house
man and cook, has learned to make it per-
fectly. For the appetizer at the same meal,
he used a crisp toast base, cut in circle, and
spread with anchovy paste. Caviar is also
excellent" Jimmy points out. On top of the
anchovy, goes slice of tomato and on that
one h llf of a hard-cooked egg, cut lengthwise.
The whole is topped with very light mayon-
naise that has been mixed with cream.
The Meltons - for there is very attrac-
tive and young Mrs. Melton - have picked
up many recipes for unusual salads. One of
their favorites comes from the famous Brown
Derby" restaurant on the West Coast. For the
greens you use mixture of shredded lettuce,
cabbage, romaine, watercress and endive.
Then into this you mix Julienne tongue and
chicken, crisp chopped bacon and ripe olives.
A French dressing is best.
Chopped bacon is also excellent as filling
for the center of an alligator pear. And for this
salad the Meltons recommend a Russian
dressing
A first course which they both say is
unusually provocative and 'as pretty as
flower" is made of a combination of raw and
cooked vegetables, arranged around center
receptacle which holds the dressing Cooked
beets, raw caulifower, cucumber and aspar-
agus tips are the vegetables we selected for the
illustration on this page. A particularly in
teresting dressing is made by combining
mustard Worcestershire Sauce and paprika
with mayonnaise.
Either as another first course or as very
simple dessert, we recommend grapefruit pre-
pared according to Mr.. Melton's directions.

That may be. but James still loves some of
the rich dishes he learned to cook down South
There is special variety of candied sweet

as garnish with an equally special chicken
dish. You can use canned yams if you like
and in that case thin them to desirable con-
sistency with the juice in the can. If they are
freshly boiled, just mash them up. In either
case season them to taste.
Meanwhile, have at your elbow a pile of

No Reason

Poor vision may lower vitality, GER

Joy it is to see things in their full
beauty. definite outline, actual color,
instead of through a seeming fog.
And think how important good
vision is to getting and keeping job
(if you have to depend upon job to
live and enjoy life). Poor vision has
been the cause of many slow child
in school. Poor vision has meant
many a mistake and even the loss of
a job to an adult.
More reasons for saving your sight?

They've been called windows of the

They are our most mobile expressive

eyes that are sad because they connot

be the beauty angle. But that excuse

WHEN girl has lot Of things
on her mind it's awfully hard
for her to remember to get of of
subways and busses at the right sta
ton. What usually happens is that
she makes a wild dash after the doors
have closed, drops all her packages
and loses her seat. What's worse,
every one stares at her as though
she were an idiot.
The best cure for this situation is
to train yourself to be philosophical
about missing your stop. If you sud-
denly look up and see that you've
reached the home plate and the doors
are already closing, learn to sit tight
and say to your self, What of it?"
If, however, you forget and start
for the door when it is too late, then
We think it wise to pull the helpless
woman stuff. Look terribly distressed
and utter a weak little cry. This will
produce sympathy rather than
scorn in the audience. The nearest
man will probably help you to pick
up your packages, and it may produce
a seat for you, which is always a
help in an embarrassing moment.

Questions of Inter-

BY EMILY POST.

THE other Saturday mother let
me take an ut-of town friend to
our best hotel to lunch and after
lunch We sat in the lounge for a
little while both TO watch the people
and to while away a few minutes
before time to go to a movie. MY
brother happened to come into the
lobby and saw us and went home rais-
ing an awful fuss to mother because
ne said people would misjudge us and
that school girls had no right to sit
around alone in public places. What
Is your opinion?
Answer: 1t is all matter Of your
own behavior. If you were sitting
there quietly, I see no reason why
this could have been criticized by any
one. For that matter, you might have
been waiting for your mother.
1-1s it necessary for girl to check
her wrap at dance?
Answer: Yes, unless she Is TO sit at
a table in which case she can wear
her wrap if she wants to and throw
it back over her chair.
RIO settle an argument in our
house, will you write something IN
the school column about the pro-
prlety Of young girls coming here with
my two sons when am not at home?
Because 1 think my boys are doing
the girls an injustice in asking them
in when they know I am not home,
they call me old-fashioned. But am
thinking of my young daughter, who
is fast growing up, toe, and I believe
how my own boys behave toward other
girls is pretty apt to be the way other
boys will treat my daughter in a few
years, and 1 wouldn't like to think of
her going to their houses when there
were no grown people at home.
AnsWer-If they invite a group Of
young people in, then I see no harm,
especially as you are probably coming
home al an early hour. But I think
to choose a night when you are out to
ask two girls to come in with them
alone is all wrong.

I'VE would like to know why it is
not considered in good taste to
use inks that match the stamping on
writing paper. For instance, a brown
ink on tan paper that is marked in
brown, or green ink if it is stamped
in green. So much of the writing
paper today is stamped in bright
colorS and the paper looks so pretty
until it is written on in dark blue or
black, and then it loses its effec-
tiveneSs. In school We thought of
starting the practice of matching ink
to stamping, but some of the girls
thought it better to write for your
opinion first.
AnSWer-Why it has never heen in
good taste I don't know unless per-
haps for the same reason that a
mans socks and handkerchiefs and
tie should not match too carefully.

lists, and although not particularly
fashionable is not taboo. White ink
belongs in an intermediate category.
neither accepted nor taboo. Purple on
the other hand. has long been iden-

in America as either black or blue.
But green and red have always been

they are so old-fashioned that they
actually believe that when people get
married they should stay married.
Positively. Can you tie it?"
To her mind that view of marriage
was just as archaic as believing that
the earth Is fiat and that the sun
moves, and just as much outmoded as
travelling in an OK wagon or using
tallow dips. She Jumped easy divorce
along with electricity, motor cars,
steam heating and other modern i'm
provementS and conveniences, and she
was filled with pity for the poor duhs
VINO used to regard marriage as
binding contract.
Therein lies the explanation of why
divorce has become SO common that
it almost seems as if a man and wom-
an who are not continually swapping
partners are as lacking in enterprise
as if they didn't turn in their old
automobile every two years an get
the latest model with all the newest
streamlined effects and the fanciest
gadgets.
THIS girl is typical of her day and
generation, and her matrimonial
creed is that of her fellows. They do
not look upon marriage seriously.
They regard it as romantic interlude,
gay adventure, something one oes
because the remainder of the crowd
are doing it, but whose results don't
greatly matter because it is tempoi
rary. They don't have to stick to
marriage unless they like it. There is
always Reno.
Probably not one young couple in
ten who so glibly swear before the
altar to take each other for better
or worse and to cherish each other
in sickness and in health until death
do them part, have the slightest in
tention of keeping their oath unless
the conditions of their marriage hap
pen to make it easy for them to do so.
They hope that their marriage will
take" as the slang expression goes,
and that they will continue to be in
love with each other ano everything
will be prosperous with them.
But if they bore each other and set
on each others nerves, if the husband
gets to philandering and the wife
finds somebody who understands" her
better than her husband does, if the
husband groWls over the bills and the
wife doesn't like housework, they quit.
What's the use of standing by bad
bargain? Maybe they would have
better luck next time and get a winner
instead of loser.
No one can deny that the reason
divorce is SO common among young
married couples that they frequently
part before they have got the gloss
worn off of their bridal presents, is
because they regard marriage as an
experiment, not something to which
they have definitely committed them
selves for the remainder of their lives
THAT is why so many of them never
put forth an honest effort to make
their marriages successes. They don't
feel that they have to adjust them
selves to each other because they
are going to have to live together

for 80 or 40 years. They look about
for some other man or woman
who they think would be more con-
genial. They don't try to unite in
common purpose Of working together
to make fortune and home and rear
a family. Because everything wasn't
all their fancy painted it they smash
the marriage into smithereens. They
don't try to make the best of their
bargain. They WEIGH on it.
No business, no profession, no enter
prise in the world can be made
success If it is entered into in this
spirit. No man who drifts from oc-
cupation to occupation and who
changes from one thing to another
when he encounters difficulties or
loses his enthusiasm for what he is
doing, ever makes a go of his under
taking. 1t is the men who have the
will to do what they set out to do and
the courage to carry on who win out
Not the cutters.
That is just as true of marriage as
it is Of business. 1t is the men and
women who marry for keeps and who
know their marriage is going to be
what they make it, who come un-
scathed to their golden wedding days.
And just as many a business that was
failure in its beginning makes the
partners who stuck to it and put their
hearts and backs into it rich in the
end, SO many a marriage that was
full of disappointments in its begin
ming is turned into gloriously happy
union by the husband and wife who
had the wisdom and the patience and
the grit to just sit tight until they
could adjust their differences and work
out successful scheme of life together.
