By EMILY POST.

nEAR MRS. POST: wish you could
write helpful advice to those going
to graduation events at the different
colleges all over the country. Many
Of the mothers of this years graduates
are perplexed and don't know what to
wear at commencement exercises and
to the other events taking place dur
ing their visit. In general way, can
you write something on the subject?
know that you can not be definite
without having particular case in
mind. but you can tell some of the
mothers some points to consider that
will help them at least. And while
you're on the subject, will you please
print reminder to the boys who ask
girls to college week ends to tell them
just what is on the social calendar for
the time Of their visit. believe a
great many girls want to take twice
as much as they need to have and
think the fault is with the boys because
they are so vague when inviting the
girls.
Answer: The mothers would wear to
graduation exactly what they wear at
that season of the year to church. I
do not mean that this dress should be
sombre, but rather that 1t should also
be possible to wear it to church. Or I
might describe what I mean by a
dress that would be suitable to wear to
lunch party. For example, a becom-
ing dress of printed foulard or Of very
light weight wool, a becoming hat
and gloves and matching wrist bag
perhaps, and good-looking shoes.
I have never heard of exercises be-
ing held out t-of-doorS if the weather is
bad SO that preparation for rainy
weather Is not necessary. but it might
be we'll to check up on this by finding
out from the boy who is your host
where the exercises are to be held. In
addition to the dress she wears to the
exercises, the mother should have a
semi-evening dress for the dance or
other evening party that is always
held. With this, of course, she wears
no hat, but she should wear gloves.
I am very glad to add the sugges-
ton to the boys that they tell the girls
exactly what events they will be ex-
pected to go to. The reason why they
don't is probably that they don't know;
and men whether old or not old have
an inborn hatred of asking questions.
But at least the girl probably knows
how long she is supposed to stay, and
she knows that there will doubtless be
a dance on one night and probably a
less important gathering Of some sort
on another night. Therefore, she
should take her very prettiest dancing
dress for the one occasion and very
simple semi-evening dress for the
other. She, too, would wear the pref
tiest daytime dress she has for the
commencement exercises, and sports
clothes for the other daytime occa-
Sions.

II you are going to serve duck as the
Sunday piece de resistance why not
glorify it with a new and unusual
stuffing made with boiled rice? Here
is how 1t is done: The washed rice is
cooked in butter with little chopped
onion until it is straw colored. The
giblets are chopped. cooked and
drained from the stock. Then the
stock is added to the rice, and it is
simmered until the rice is tender,
about 20 minutes. When the rice is
thoroughly cooked all Of the moisture
should be absorbed.
Next, mix the chopped giblets with
the bread crumbs and seasonings. toss
ing them lightly together and add to
the rice. You may like to add to the
stufflng one-half pound OF mushrooms
that have been chopped and sauteed
in two tablespoons of butter. Here is
list Of all the ingredients:
RICE STUFF1NG FOR POULTRY.
l cup uncooked rice.
4 cup butter
l medlum onion, chopped.
3 cups stock from chopped giblets
cups coarse stale bread crumbs.
teaspoon salt.
Dash black pepper.
Is teaspoon marjoram or
y teaspoon sage.
Because stufing will expand in the
moist heat of cooking, it is we'll to fill
the cavity of bird loosely without
packing. This will prevent the stufing
from being firm and soggy.
APPLE RINGS.

zucchini and cook over slow heat. Stir
often. Add the tomatoes and the
seasoning. Cover pan and simmer for
five minutes. Turn into q creased

The Old Gardener Soys i:

It seems strange that the native
running euonymus, which bears
the botanical name Of euonymus
obovatus, is not more frequently
used In gardens. It makes an ex-
cellent ground cover for shady
places. This euonymus Is also
hardy, vigorous and easily grown
in any soil that contains even a
small amount Of leaf mold. It is
especially delightful when grown
beneath old shrubs, where its
green stems and colorful berries
add to the autumn and winter ef-
feet. The pink and scarlet fruits
appear in early autumn and per-
sist well into the winter. In sum-
mer the foliage is a pleasing
green. Roofing as it goes, 1t is
easily transplanted and multi
piled. An ample mulch Of decayed
leaves will hasten its growth.
