for those lucky persons who do not
have to consider the COST But okra Is
fine, spinach, beans of all kinds, and
the root vegetables offer an inviting
and economical selection.
Beef continues to drop; that is al
ways good news for red meat addicts!
Lamb also is doing nicely this week,
and various cuts are being featured by
many stores with great success. In the
poultry line one sees little change; the
same Is true of the fish markets.
INCIDENTALLY q food find" for
the week is smoked chicken-done
just like the famous smoked turkey
and smoked guinea. and delicious to
use with salad, or as hors d'oeuvres.
The chickens have to be ordered
little ahead. but are not expensive for
this very de luxe" type of delicacy.
They're well worth looking into!

rich? MISERABLE.
Answer wonder If you have ever
heard the story Of the two frogs? It
is a very old story, but 1t Is so true
and has 30 much hope and inspiration
In it for all ambitious young people
that 1t is worth repeating. It goes
this way:
There were once two frogs that fell
in q crock Of milk. One frog, perceiv-
ing that he was sunk, gave up without
making q single effort to save himself
and drowned. The other frog fought
and fought and fought, and when he
would sink to the bottom OF the crock
would struggle up out Of the depths.
Finally he found himself sitting on a
pat Of butter at the top of the jar.
The moral Of this story is that If
you have the grit, the courage and the
perseverance you can fight your way
out of your troubles, but il you just
sit down and wiring your hands over
your misfortunes you will never rise
above them. Nine-tenths of the sue
cessful men and women in this coun-
try were poor boys and girls who be-
gan life at the foot Of the ladder. But
they had the intelligence and the will
power that made them climb to the
top.
So it is up to you to make in reason
what you will Of your life. You may
not be able to be glamorous movie
star with . million-dollar salary,
though many Of the fabulous ones in
Hollywood came from humber and
poorer homes than yours. One has to
have Lady Luck for . godmother to
have this fate befall her. Nor can you
be great writer or artist unless God
touched you with genius. Nor do many
women ever make great fortunes and
there are few girls who marry million
aires.
Any girl who has the average amount
Of brains and health and who is will
ing to work and make the sacrifices
that success demands can lift herself
out of poverty and into comfort, If
not actual riches.
+ \ X
THE trouble with most girls Is that
they take their longing for the
comforts Of life out in wishing. They
are not willing to work for them.
Nor will they deny themselves the
present pleasure for future good. They
go half-heartedly about their jobs
never bothering to learn their trades
or acquire the efficiency that alone
commands good pay.
Their minds are on the good time
they had last night or the date they
have for tonight not on what they are
doing. And generally even when the
more intelligent and ambitious OF
them get to the place where they are
worth real money to their employers
they marry lads who are not making
any more than they were and plunge
themselves back into poverty. Which
| of course. is romantic and sentimental
and probably right but not good busi-
ness.
My advice to you then my littls IA
year-old is to try to find cut what
natural ability you have. Think OF
it in terms Of what you like to do and
are good at doing. Can you comb your
own hair so that 1t looks as If you
have been to beauty shop7 Are you
natural born cook? Are you clever
with your needle? Are you quick at
figures? Do you like to sell things,
And have you personality that makes
people take to you at sight? All OF
these are tips to show you what line
| Of work to 60 into. All of them are
good If you do good work in them.
So pick out your trade and fit your

LANpLoRps AND CHnpRRN

Al newspaper contemporary in an
other state notes that some home
owners dislike to rent houses to
families having children, and that
such refusals were common in boom
times, when desirable homes were
scarce. Nowadays, that newspaper
remarks, owners do not take so
strong a position on this point, and
it thinks the damage done to houses
by children is greatly exaggerated.
It is to be hoped the families with
children are all finding good homes
now. It means a great deal in
bringing up the youngsters, to OBJ
tain a dwelling in which they can
be happy and satisfied.
Parents should realize that 1t is
naturally Irritating to an owner, If
he finds children have injured wall
paper or floors by their rough play
They could remove this objection, If
they would train their children to
take care of the property they oc-
rupy. In so far as tenants damage
homes, they make it necessary for
landlords to charge higher rents.

SENSTTUENESS HURTS

During a political campaign, the
politicians attack and ridicule eacf
other, but they have to learn not &c
be sensitive. In lawmaking bodies, il
frequently happens that Legislators
find their closest friends among
those of the opposite party They at
tack each other on the floor. then
go out for lunch together and make
it all up. We can all learn some
thing from that attitude.
Some people are so made up, that
if they hear some unpleasant things
about themselves, II rankles in their
hearts for years. They can hardly
speak to the one who made such a
remark. Such feelings divide peo-
pie into antagOnistic groups, and
make it difficult to get together for
community ends. Let us be big
enough to choke down those feelings
Of sensitiveness, the way the poll
ticians have to.
