Works On Relief

Hardly had the farm bill moved
out of the way before the house was
pushing through a relief appropria-
ton to pad out the fund the gov
ernmest has to use between now
and July. It gave another quarter
of a billion. Some said this was
too much, others too little.

Dorothy Dix Says
When Children Come Home From
COLLEGE Is a Perilous Time.

Ever since the day Ben was born.
father has been working building up
his business and thinking how fine
it would be when Ben came home
from college and went into the factory
with him to make it big concern.
but Ben simply SCOTS at the idea OF
his devoting his talents to anything
so picayunish as making clothespins
or selling hams.
Mother has dreamed Of how happy
she will be when Sadie comes home
from college and she has beautiful
daughter to show of at parties, 60 to
church with and help with the house.
keeping. But Sadie soon lets her
know that she is set for = career.
loathes parties, hates domesticity,
thinks mothers taste atrocious and
her ideas childish and that she doesn't
believe in religion or a single thing
that mother believes in, or see any,
thing from the same point of view.
SO THERE they are. The parents
~ and children who should be closer
together than any people on earth
are farther apart than the most cas-
ual strangers. Many q father knows
his office boy better than he does his
son, and many q housemaid is more
companionable to = woman than her
own daughter. Father grows grim
and sardonic over Ben and calls him
young fool. Ben considers father
dotard. Mother weeps over Sadie
and Sadie defies mother and an
nounces that she is going to live her
own life. Mother and father sigh
when they think Of the darling little
children that Ben and Sadie were,
and repeat the old saying about babies
stepping on your feet and grown chill
dren treading on your heart.
OF course, in the end. time, the
great adjuster, does straighten the
situation out. Father finds out that
Ben isn't q fool, after all, as he seems
and Ben discovers to his amazement
that college education has not au-
tomatically turned him into Solomon,
so he begins to respect father when
he observes that bankers seek his ad-
vice and kowtow to him. Sadie and
mama get together when Sadie mar
ries and has q house of her own and
has TO run home TO mother to find
out how to keep budget and cook
food SO 1t will be edible.
But when the children first come
home from college, it is . hard and
perilous time for all concerned.

has been removed, pour into q shaker
and shake with plenty Of ice until
foamy and well frosted. Serve In tall
glasses, garnished with mint.
FROSTED ORANGE JUICE.
To one tall glass of orange juice
add q scoop OF vanilla ice cream.
Stir until partially melted and then
serve at once.
LEMON SELTZER.
Place tablespoonfuls lemon sher-
bet or water ice in a tall glass and NIL
glass with charged water. Stir with a
spoon and serve with straw imme-
diately.
PINEBERRY TEA.
"a pint strawberry juice.

two hours. Squeeze through cheese
cloth and pour the juice on clear.
To one half pint Of the juice add the
pineapple juice and the sugar. Stir
well and strain, then place on ice
until needed. Serve in glasses full OF
cracked ice, garnished with mint.
STRAWBERRY BEVERAGE.
/ quart berries.
112 pounds Of sugar.

Finely chopped mint.
Mash the berries, cover with sugar
and set aside to form a sirup. Drain
and press through fine sieve. squeez-
ing out every bit of the juice. Add
the extract, mix with the water and
pineapple juice and pour into a
freezer. Freeze until q light frosting
appears, then serve in tall glasses.
with a few bits OF chopped mint on
top. Delicious on q hot afternoon.
SPICED ICED TEA.
Tie together in q cheesecloth Dag
II whole cloves, 8 short pieces of stick
Cinnamon, 8 whole sllspice and several
bruised mint leaves. Drop the bag
into the hot tea infusion and let all
stand for about Is minutes, keeping tea
hot. Remove bag and strain tea into
q glass pitcher or empty milk bottle
Set aside until wanted. Do not keep
tea in the ice-box, as 1t will become
cloudy. When ready to serve. pour
over cubes OF ice or tea, add . dash OF
lemon juice, = little sugar sirup and a
sprig of mint
In making summer cooling drinks.
it is well to keep q bottle OF sugar sirup
on hand. Boiling sugar and water to-
gether makes fine sweetening agent,
far easier to blend with the cold drink
than just plain sugar. The propor-
tions are one cup Of sugar to one cup
Of water. Boil together for five min
utes, cool and bottle until needed.
Many people prefer to use equal
quantities of golden ginger ale and
very strong tea, instead Of spices. Little
sweetening is needed here, because OF
the ginger ale favor. Lemon juice
and mint are good, however, and if one
teaspoonful Of maraschino is added to
each tall glass. with plenty Of ice. the
drink assumes ambrosial proportions.

Wedding
Solved
UNLIMITED Guests
Easily Kept Out
Of a Church.
BY EMILY POST,

DEAR MRS. POST: How can one
avoid the presence Of uninvited
guests at the church when only verbal
invitations to the wedding are given?
Answer-You should give your vista
ing card to each person you invited.
This then will be recognized BY the
sections man at the door, and he
allows no one to enter without a card.
On the other hand, IL no awning Is
put up at the door people passing
In the street are not likely to 90 in.
NEAR MRS POST: II the bride
and her attendants are not wear~
ing gloves at an evening wedding.
must I, the brides mother, wear them?
Answer - Correctly the brides
mother always wears gloves Unless
the brides and the bridemaids' hands
are covered by their bouquets they also
should wear gloves. 1t is true that
the bride shakes hands with every
body after she has more than likely
taken her gloves of. but, even 70, if
there is to be q formal reception you
should wear gloves during the cere-
mony and for as long as you receive.
OF course. II the wedding reception
is small and informal you might per-
haps 60 without them
DEAR MRS. POST: I am eontin-
uing my business after I'm mar
ried. but am afraid that many Of
my customers will think am giving
up my shop when they read about
my marriage in the papers. Would
it be too commercial to include men
ton Of the fact that the bride is
| continuing her gift shop at the same
address?
Answer-No, 1t would be quite all
right. and it would be quite all right
/ also to send out cards soon after your
marriage notifying your customers of
any new and especially attractive
things for sale
DEAR MRS POST: We do not
know the bride, but my husband
! is very old friend Of the bridegroom.
| We live in q distant town, and 20 is
| is not easy to find out what silver
or china the bride has, nor Is 1t
possible to find out what presents
she has already received 50 rs not
| to send duplicate. My husband
| thinks the best way out of the whole
uncertainty is for us to send q check.
hesitate to do this, however, with
out knowing whether this plan would
| be in good taste?
| Answer-Since a check Is always
very practical. your husband could.
I think. send your double visiting
card with q message on 1t and the
check to the bridegroom personally. and
ask him please to buy a present and
| inclose the card with it. Then the
bridegroom can either go and buy the
! present himself alone, or he can ask
the bride to 60 with him and choose
it, depending upon what he knows to
be her feeling in the matter. At least.
under the circumstances which you
describe, this would seem TO me the
best thing to do.
