WE'LL ADMIT IT PROBABLY
STARTED IN BOHEMIA

For years, when real beer drinkers wanted to
give themselves treat, they ordered some of
the famous Imported PiIsen (or Bohemian)
Beer. They knew they were getting a brew
that was considered by beer drinkers the world
over to be the finest ever produced. They knew
they were drinking beer that was carefully
brewed and aged to be dry, sparkling beer
-. beer that was light in body yet having
really did something for mans thirst -.
that they could drink with their meals, yet
not get that stufy "flled up" feeling as quickly
as they would if they drank sweeter, heavier
type brews. But, they knew too, that they had
to pay high premium prices for these premium
imported beers :. sometimes as high as zoe
to SOC glass !. definitely high enough prices
to make these beers treat in any man S land!

Then they discovered that certain brewers in
this country were beginning to brew the kind
of beer they had come to regard as "treat".
And it didn't cost bit more than any of the
regular domestic beers! Real beer drinkers all
over the country Swarmed to these beers,
wherever they were brewed E. and in the
Baltimore Washington part of the country,
it was Gunther'S Dry Berry Beer!
Gunther's is brewed according to formulas
that have come down through the ages, setting
a standard for fine beer. 1t is made with an
unusually high percentage of choice Bohemian
hops, giving it favor that domestic hops
alone, cannot duplicate. Gunther'S is really
dry, meaning not sweet the only Special
Dry Lager" that is brewed here!

Manners
of the
Moment

I should like to send out an ad-
vance plea for the next time I get
something down my windpipe. Please.
please, don't let any one come over
and give me one of those thunderous
slaps on the back. I'll get over it in
my own quiet way. if you'll just leave
me to choke alone.
And I'm sending out this plea be-
cause l think there are probably
thousands of other people who occa-
sionally choke on sip Of water, who
like the same consideration.
That business Of slapping a per-
son on the back may be necessary
once in q while. When the victim
starts getting purple I suppose she II
have to put up with a slap on the
back. But I've found that most Of
the time when I choke, come out
of the fit quite nicely by myself,
thank you.
And resent the slapplng, because
at the moment when I'm slapped
1 am helpless and can't retaliate.
It's taking a mean advantage OF
me, If you really want to know my
opinion. JEAN.

Unjustifed
Strain on
Child
Public Exhibitions
Not for the Shy
Youngsters
By ANGELO PATRI.

Children are really courageous.
Often a child performs heroically,
within the silence of his own spirit,
while the rest of us look on critically,
never knowing the struggle the child
has made, never glimpsing the agony
of spirit he endured, nor the triumph
of his victory. Yet every classroom
witnesses such heroic efforts every
day. If the teacher only could be
conscious of them.
A child wrote a note, and because
it is like many others I am giving
the gist of it here. 1--WE have a
singing teacher who comes to school
once a week to teach us singing. He
makes us stand up and sing alone,
before all the others, without any
accompaniment. I sit and shiver
and shake. hoping he won't call on
me. It has gotten so bad that now
I lie awake at night worrying about
the next time he comes and how
shall manage if he calls on me. 1
can't sleep and it gives me an awful
feeling in the pit of my stomach.
"You see, can't sing much. My
voice won't go above the second c..
And don't carry tune well, either.
This thing has sure got me down.
What am I going to do?"
Think of that child when the
teacher calls on her and says, Sing
the first verse through" She tries
to sing and her voice sticks in her
throat. The other children look at
her sympathetically for the most
part, few grinning gleefully. The
classroom teacher looks worried. She
wants everybody to show well, and
this child is so shy. Why can't she
shake it of?
The singing teacher, pressed for,
time, certain that this individual
singing is of first Importance
though why he should have such
a notion is beyond me and the
child-impatiently marks time and
says, "Try that again. Open your
mouth, wide; let your breath come
freely. Don't squeeze q tone like
that. Look at me. So-now sing"
Nobody knows the effort that
child makes to stand there, forcing
herself to make a sound. Nobody
knows the turmoil of spirit she is
enduring, the panic that Is rushing
down upon her as she calls for the
hills to fall and cover her. And to
what purpose?
Sensitive children, and there are
many of them in a class, find 1t
difficult to sing alone in class Like
telling their names out loud before
q group Of strangers, 1t seems to
center the eyes of the critical world
upon their fevered minds. The strain
is terrific and unjustffled by any re-
suits it brings.
Teachers usually know which Of
their pupils have these feelings and
attitudes. They usually try to spare
such children useless pain. When
visiting teachers come-the special
lists who usually teach subjects and
ignore children-the teacher may
well protect these children and in
form the stranger within the gates
that they are excused from public
exhibitions. No good comes Of press
ing such children, but much harm is
likely to be done. Let them alone.

its place is wall piano, very grace
full in outline, with the strings run
ming vertically, but instead of being
set above the keyboard, are below it,
built into cabinet which goes down
to the floor. This is small in size,
full keyboard and full piano tone
and is offered in many period styles
and finishes. The spinet type is
most attractive in design, but as the
strings are short in most models it
has the spinet tone rather than true
piano tone and should be purchased
with that in mind. 1t is delightful
instrument for children to handle
but probably will not satisfy you
if you or your friends wish to at
tempt important true piano arrange
ment. 1t has thin reedlike quality
which is very pleasing but different
from the full piano tone. Judge
this instrument on its own merits
rather in comparison with piano.

DEAR MISS NOVEL;: enjoy
doing the things necessary to make
a house attractive. I like to sew,
upholster and paint. I have just
done over a room which seemed
hopeless, by painting the walls coral
pink. I have used sheer white dra-
perry at the windows and on the
dressing table, trimmed with coral
and deep blue ric-rac braid. I have
antique white beds, and I am now
stuck completely on what to do next.
I do not want any more antique
white furniture, and the room defln-
itely needs something to live up to
its wild walls. Have you any sug-
pestions. ANNA c. B.

some days before it ventures timidly
out into the open again.
Mustard greens and turnip tops
are with us to replace the more
fighty spinach, and the root vege-
tables hold staunchly to their ira
dition of being inexpensive winter
standbys. Tomatoes are cheaper
somehow that sounds like a line
from some old song-and lettuce,
though small, is reasonable IN price.
Cured sweet potatoes, extra sweet
and Juicy, are at their best; in many
markets the first baby redskinned
new potatoes that are SO good boiled
'in their jackets" have made their
first bow. Cooking pears and apples
present ideas for wholesome and
non -fattening desserts; bananas are
so low priced that they deserve the
close attention of the thrifty house
wife, who can use them raw. cooked
as vegetable, and worked into des-
serts to fill the needs of family with
winter-sharpened appetites.
Grapefruit, tangerines and or
anges from Florida are seen on all
sides, nicely priced, and full OF
sweetness and juice. There are
plenty of grapes, and California per-
simmons, as we'll as the little Lady
Apples" if you didn't see enough OF
them in the Thanksgiving fruit bowl.
Fish is scarcer, to a certain extent,
but there is plenty Of the frozen
varieties on hand. Oysters are fine
favored and firm, and what Is better
than a good oyster stew on cold,
cold night? Or curried shrimps,
which are inexpensive, make a Won
derful cold weather dish.
Specials being featured in most
markets this week in the meat line
include loins of pork and legs OF lamb
although other places will tell you
that they have not been able to get
much lamb, and that, consequently,
they must charge more for it. Beef
seems about the same, in general.
Calves liver is hard to get, and high
in price-use kidneys for a change,
70 give you that boost for the blood"
these cold days. Baking chickens
are fine, and will help you to forget
the turkeys that nearly swamped
us last weekly the way, there is
hardly one to be seen now! There
rs plenty of scrapple, nice pigs feet
and spareribs- and, of course, rab-
bit. incidentally, there is a lot of
new kraut" to be seen in the differ
ent market stalls, all ready to ac-
company your neat dish of spareribs.

DEAR MISS NOVEL;: We have
finally saved up enough money to
start our house. We have been PLAN
ming for it for over five years. I
have had in mind pine paneled
living room and dining room all this
time and have been collecting here
and there a piece of furniture to go
into these rooms. Now I am afraid
that this fashion is passing and
that my house will look out of date.
Can you suggest other wall treat
ments that would do as well and be
more fashionable? MRS. F. D. N.
Answer-There are plenty Of wall
treatments that you might use with
your pine furniture, but pine-pan-
eled walls have been 'in style" since
the Pilgrims landed and I don't see
why you should change your plans.
To be sure, bright orange maple fur
niture Is on the down grade, and
paneled walls that were too picked"
are definitely "out"-but the charm
of wax finished pine walls I hope will
never die. If we're you would
stick to my original thought, espe-
cially as you have some of your
furniture and can build your house
and its interior furnishings at the
same time.

Dorothy Dix Says
Stay Within Your Own Glass,
Especially Intellectually

superior to the other, it is better
for the man to be, because a clever
man is not ashamed of q dull wife
as a clever woman is ashamed of
a dull husband. Also, men like to
feel that they are superior to their
wives, but unless a woman is q
Patient Griselda-and there are not
many of them in these days-it
doesn't make for a wife's happiness
to know that her husband regards
her as nice little thing, a pretty
plaything, or a good cook, but not
in his mental class.
I think you have answered your
own question as to the advisability
Of marrying this man when you say
that when you are with your own
kind of people that you are bubbling
over with conversation and laughter
and have q free and easy gay time,
but when you are with your pro-
fessor that you are Ill at ease and
have nothing to say. That feeling
will be intensified if you 60 to live
among his college crowd, whose
background and interests have been
50 different from yours.
We always pity the brilliant men
who have commonplace wives, but
our real sympathy should go to the
wives who have the humiliation of
knowing that their husbands friends
think that they have married be-
meath themselves; of knowing that
they are dragged around to parties
into which they do not fit because
they have to be invited with their
husbands. And, worse Of all, OF
knowing that their husbands go to
other women when they want to
discuss the things in which they
are really interested.

DEAR DOROTHY DIX: A man
who is an instructor in one OF our
large colleges wishes to marry me.
He has travelled widely, has degrees
from several colleges and can con-
verse freely with people on any
subject. I did not finish high school.
Have been in business since was
young girl. And I feel that this
man knows too much for me. When
I am with him I feel SO small and
limited in my education and knowl-
edge that I am uncomfortable and
am dumb, but when I am with
others on my own level can chatter
like a magpie. This man Is all any
woman could wish in husband.
but if I should marry him would
have to live on the campus OF the
college where he is teaching and
associate with other people like him,
and 1 am afraid they would look
down on me. He is almost over
ambitious and 1 am satisfied with
a quiet, peaceful home life. can
cook and sew and keep a neat,
clean house, but can come up to
his standards in education and mix
gracefully with his associates?
