Chickens are an excellent buy and
turkeys are still good, so if you have
not had your fill of this delicious bird
by all means include it in one of your
dinners for the week end. Eggs and
butter are still very inexpensive for
this season of the year, so give your
family all they want of these healthful
foods.

budget and have real treat purchase
a jumbo SQUAD. I saw some lovely
looking ones. that made me so hun
cry, even early in the morning They
were all nicely dressed with their little
legs tied into place with red and
blue cords, giving them very festive
look.
This season of the year I think
every one gets the feeling that spring
is just around the corner, especially
when they see the profusion of spring
flowers in the markets and on every
street corner. There are such gay and
colorful flowers, as tulips in all shades
of pink and lavender, great punches
of white and yellow freshia, which is
particularly lovely as it has delicious
scent; bright yellow jonquils and snap
dragons seem to be everywhere.

a visit or whether they owe you one
is not at all mportant-except as 1
have said, in the case of some one
who knows you very formally and
slightly. If they feel like inviting you
to their houses, they are certainly free
to do so, just as you may invite them
again to your house. In other words,
the leaving of cards is one of the
details of etiquette that has been
pushed rather far back on the shelf

Dorothy Dix Says
Learn to Handle Your Husband
If You Want Martial Bliss.

DEAR DOROTHY DIX am an
elderly wdower with one married
son, and am about to make my will.
I have worked hard for what money
have and I want to leave It 80
that my son and my grandchildren
will never come to want. But the
trouble Is my sons wife is so ex-
travagant and wasteful that I know
she will throw it all away If she
ever gets her hands on it. It is
because Of her that my son has never
been able to accumulate anything,
has always been in debt and can
never save anything for his old age.
What can do? FATHER OF SON.
Answer: Consult some good lawyer
and let him write your will for you.
Don't try to write your will yourself,
because you will leave some loophole
through which it can be broken.
think in case like yours, and in
every case where money is to be
turned over to people who have shown
that they are incapable of handling
1t. that the money should be left in
trust in such way that they will
get the interest from it in monthly
installments. That is the only way
in which dead hand can be stretched
from the grave to protect loved ones.
Every man should leave whatever
money he leaves his wife and daugh-
ters tied up tight and fast so that
they can only get the interest on it
because women are the victims not
only Of Swindlers, but Of their hus-
bands from whom they cannot pro-
tect themselves. For when q man
tells his wife that If she loved him
she would turn over her money to
him, what can she do but let him
have it?
The husband does not always rob
his wife with malice aforethought
Some Of the best and kindest men in
the world are the poorest business
men, but after a man has lost his
wife's money and reduced her to beg
gary it doesn't matter much to her
how 1t went.
nEAR DOROTHY DIX have two
beautiful and charming children
and have been divorced for five years
from man whose philandering I
could stand no longer. Now that my
children are getting grown up and
are unusually attractive, their father
is taking more interest in them. The
other day he invited them to 60 shop
ping with him and have dinner. They
were quite pleased. but when they
arrived the other woman was there
to greet them and she helped them
shop and was included in the dinner
party. The other woman was beauti-
fully dressed, has wonderful figure.
and my daughter came home raving
about how pretty she was. So the
question is: Shall let the children
go again where they will meet this
woman to whom 1 present such an
invidious comparison, because all the
money can make spend on my chill
dren and not myself?
BEWILDERED.
Answer-If your husband is married
to the other woman, there is no reason
for your not letting the children 90
with their father on outings when she
is along, but if he is bringing them IN
contact with his mistress that's an
other question. But in any case you
have to recognize the fathers right to
some share in his children's lives and
you must remember that If you offend
him that he will not give them the
help that they need.

EAR MISS DIX have many
friends wro complain bitterly
Of the trouble their husbands
xooLa than, nv their careless.


friends WHO complain bitterly
- Of the trouble their husbands
make them by their careless
ness about things, scattering papers
on the floor. dropping cigarette ashes
on the rugs, leaving the bathroom a
wreck, and so on. Also, my friends
bawl out their husbands II they are
late for q meal and make hot come
back If their husbands are gruf1 to
them when answering a question. That
always brings on quarrel, and these
husbands and wives live in a per-
petual state Of being sore with each
other. I am married to one Of these
careless, scattering husbands also. but
take a different tack with him.
pick up after him without ever saying
word. When he comes home
grouchy feed him and let him alone.
In a little while he snaps out Of it
and is pleasant and agreeable. When
he wants to go anywhere I grab my
hat and 60, whether or not want to,
and we get along without rifle.
Maybe my way Of managing husband
isn't the best, but it seems to work
out pretty well. A WIFE.
Answer-Mr. Charles Schwab said
in a recent interview that his great
success was based not on his knowl-
edge OF steel, but on his knowledge Of
how to handle men. Every wife who
makes a success Of marriage could
say the same thing. 1t rests on her
knowledge Of how TO handle men.
There are no perfect husbanas. No
reasonable husbands. No husbands
who just fit their wives little c1t-psper
patterns of what they want in
husband. All husbands have their
peculiarities. their faults. their little
cantankerous ways, that no wife can
cure or alter And, Likewise, they
have their little pet prejudices, their
little vanities, their little weaknesses
to which wife can appeal and
through which she can manage them
if she is willing to take the time and
trouble and make the effort to do so.
The amazing thing is that so many
women are too stupid to realize this.
and that so many other women would
rather batter out their brains knock
ing up against q stone wall than walk
around it, would rather fight with
their husbands than use a little
diplomacy in avoiding an issue.
It takes far less time, for instance,
to sweep up cigarette ashes than it
does to have a fight with your hus-
band over dropping them on the rugs
1t isn't as nerve-wearing and exhaust
ing to clean up the bathroom after
him as 1t Is to have a scene with him
over the way he left it. If a woman's
husband loves to smoke, isn't it far
better to have smoke get in the
curtains than for her to get in his
hair?
II woman knows that her hus-
band comes home tired from the office,
why can't she refrain from putting
him through a QUESTIONABLE, or tell
ing him all the bad news she can
think Of until he is rested and re-
freshed and in 4 mood to bear it.
II she knows he simply eats up fiat
terry, why can't she have enough sense
to feed him on it instead of always
finding fault and belittling him until
he goes out and hunts up some
other woman who will jolly him?
There is no other branch of study
that so we'll pays q wife as learning
how to handle her husband.

World of Finance By Lewis Haney

Sharing the wealth is opposed by the great

laborers are beginning to see that 1t means an
end to productive employment, thus driving them
into the army Of regimented relief workers
These conditions will get Strengthened out in
the course Of a year or two, and then q great
boom will run quickly to a climax. (This Is
what imagine) It may be expected about
1940-perhapS between 1899 and 1941.
Thereafter the inevitable "payoff" will come
in the shape Of q depression which will liquidate
the New Deal and its overgrown debt structure.
We Tried to Beat Game
WE called for New Deal just to try to beat
" the game. Thus sometime in the very
early 4o's, hope that we will get readjusted,
and be discharged from TIE economic insane
asylum.
Debts, both domestic and international, will
be settled in one way or another. Liabilities
will be scaled down to assets.
Part Of the thing will be a reduction in the
