can procedure is taking shape. He
helped initiate and has diligently
fostered the good neighbor" policy
in Latin-America, and his radio ad-
dress urging a get-together in the
Western hemisphere received a
good press in those countries. But
a bad press in Germany.
His plea for joint defense
against "any threat of attack
is in interesting contrast to his
speeches of year ago, when he
appealed to the nations of the
world for a new world order,
based on justice and law" He
weighs the actualitieS of trade,
finance and the collective safety
and solvency of the Western
world.
Something like a picture of a
western league of nations be-
gins to emerge as the great
imperialisms turn toward the

After his graduation from Har-
ward in 1914, Franklin D. Roosevelt,
then assistant secretary of the navy,
helped him enter career diplomacy.
In his early thirties, he was high
commissioner to the Dominican Re-
public, the author of 'Naboth' S
Vineyard" a two-volume study of
that country. He was made am
bassador to Cuba by President
Roosevelt in 1888. He became un-
dersecretary of state last year.

AncientS Used 1t
In Fine Cooking

DO YOU KNOW that
there are more ways of using
perfume than wearing it? The
use of perfume in cooking is as
ancient as the perfumers' art,
and as modern as tomorrow!
Most of us know from per-
sonal experience the confections
known as candied violet and
candied rose petals. The little
pink and lavender decorations
of French bonbons are sugared
flowers.
The Turks, Armenians. Serb
ians and Arabians use rose
water in the PREPARATION of foods
from meat to sweet.
Vanilla, known to every mod
ern housewife, was once a IA
vorite perfume base, and is still
used today,

Some women really enjoy
washing dishes. The daily
cycle OF scraping and stacking,
of soaping and rinsing, has be-
come so automatic that it leaves
their minds free to dwell on the
next days menus or to relax in
pleasant reveries over the pan OF
sparkling SudS.
But to most of us, diShwash-
ing is a tedious business, some
thing to be borne with noble
resignation and accomplished
with the least possible expendi-
ture of thought and time. Not
that there's any need to dawdle
over diShwaShing. But the

process must be thorough, no
matter how hasty, if dishes are
to be rid of invisible bacteria,
along with the dirt that shows.
Dishwsshing in restaurants
and other public eating and
drinking places usually comes
under the Jurisdiction of local
health departments. These
establishments are rated accord
ingly to the bacteria found in
tests on freshly washed china,
glassware, and silver, and places
with low grades must cut down
the bacterial count to avoid legal
pressure or public reproof. They
do this by washing the dishes
cleaner.

POTTED BEEF
Select for this a round or
brisket of beef. Wipe it well
with damp cloth. Take q
kettle large enough to hold the
beef. Slice into it three carrots,
one parsnip, two potatoes, a
stalk of celery, and sprig of
parsley. Sprinkle the beef with
salt and pepper. Place it on the
vegetables. Pour in about two
quarts of water. Cover the
kettle and let simmer gently for
hours, now and then turning the
beef, until tender. When done
and ready to serve, place the
meat on a hot platter. Thicken
the gravy with a little flour.
Stir until very smooth and pour
around the beef.
APPLE SOUFFLE
Bake about two pounds OF
apples, rub them through a
sieve. Separate the yolks and
whites of six eggs. Beat up the
yoks with one-quarter pound OF
butter to a thick cream, and
stir in the puree of apples. Add
one teaspoon Of grated lemon
peel, finally the stiffly beaten
eggs. If you have not a souffle
mold on hand, butter an earth
ern or glass casserole with
butter and dust with very fine
crumbs. Pour in the mixture,
cover with a sheet of buttered
paper on top. Set the dish in
a pan with water and bake for
about 80 minutes. Serve with
fresh strawberries or apricots
passed through a colander.
May be used the same way II
served with a wine sauce.
BAKED RICE PUDDING
WITH FRUIT LAYERS
Clean and wash one heaping
cupful of rice and oil with one
quart of milk and a pinch OF
sugar until thick. Cream a
quarter pound of butter, with a
quarter pound of sugar and the
yolkS of five eggs. Now add the
rice and the stiffly beaten whites
of the eggs. Butter a pudding
dish and put in one layer OF
rice, and on top Of the rice
any kind of fruit from which
the juice has been drained. Al
ternate the layers until the dish
is full; the top layer should be
rice. Top with small bits OF
butter and bake for almost one
hour. Serve with fruit sauce.

general use of these words.
Usually we name the three
meals breakfast, luncheon, and
dinner. Even if the evening
meal is served at an early hour
and is the informal family
meal, it is still usually referred
to as dinner. When there is a
service later in the evening,
say after a bridge party or at
a dance or after the theater,
we speak of this as supper.

Dear Donna Grace:
I am a young girl of
IS and look older than
my age; lots of people
take me for 20. What I
want to know is: Will
1t be wrong for me to
wear a veil? I just love
wells and all my life l
wanted to wear them
but my aunt. who takes
care of me, alw avs
laughs and says I look
like a little girl trying
to dress up. and I better
wait till I grow up be-
fore I wear them. I put
them on after l leave
the house so she won't
see them. I am really
going to wear them and
the other girls 1 60 with
can wear wells, What
can I do about it Miss
Grace? SYLVIA.
It seems, Sylvia dear,
you have made your
own decision about the
wells. You are going to
wear them. 1t would be
nice to tell your aunt
just how you feel, since
the wearing of wells is
30 important to you.
There should be no OBJ
lection to a smart little
veil around the hat and
we know many young
girls do wear them.

Advice
By Beatrice Fairfax

Dear Miss Fairfax:
I was married when 18 and
my husband was 81. I am now
% years old, but look lots
younger. Lots of folks think
I'm attractive because I wear
nice clothes, but I'm very short
and weigh about los pounds. !
don't think I'm attractive. We
have a nice home and do every
thing I can to please my hus-
band and he does the same to
me.
I used to dance before I mar
ried, and had a great many
friends. My husband is an ex-
sailor, and when we married l
gave up dancing, which meant
all my good times. He things
I'm O good sport for doing all
that.
The summer we were married
my husband introduced me to
one of his boy friends who was
home from college. I danced
with this young man ana
thought he was very nice. After
that, all I had on my mind was
this boy. I tried to forget him.
but I couldn't, and since he has
gone back to school I miss him
terribly. Even if I could just
meet him on the street I'd feel
contented. I cry so much over
this. l know I'm deeply IN love
with him, but I'd never do any
thing to hurt my husoano,s
feelings. a.
rye tried two years now to
forget this boy, but I just cant.
OF course, he doesn't know now
I feel toward HIM and hell
never know. I hope you WILL be
able to help me.
~ ADELAIDE.
Playing with fire, my dear,
when YOU let your mind dwell
continually on this friend OF
vour husbands. Summon every
fiber of duty that you can
muster and live it down. It's
more than likely, If you olo
anything foolish, that the col
Iege friend would not take you
seriously.
Interest yourself in some
thing else. Have you any gift
that could be cultivated
music, dancing or singlngT
Have you any ability at dress
designing? Join a class IN
something and try to put your
mind on that, and forget about
yo,,r husbands friend,

TULIP PRINT

A trifle different design in
prints is that of a tulip print in
bright red, green and white on

the skirt, but on the bodice the
same design Is very small.

MISUNDERSTANDING

Dear Miss Fairfax:
I've been a steady reader OF
your column, and have found
it to be a source of comfort and
assistance to me for a long time.
But now I have a problem OF
my own. I kept STEADY" COM
pany with a young man for
about four months last year,
when through some misunder-
standing we discontinued. I
now find that I still like him
very much, but ne is going with
another girl, although they're
not engaged. I'd like very much
to ask him to party I am Civ
ing. Do you think this would
be wise? PAULINE.
Yes, indeed, ask him to your
party. Even if he should have
a "preyious engagement" he
will feel flattered that you re-
membered to invite him. And,
who knows? Perhaps you will
make up and be on the old
friendly footing again. There's
an old saying: Nothing beats
a trial but a failure"
