AdOlescents
Need Work
AS Outlet
Bows and Girls Must
Not Be Deprived of
Useful Occupation.
By ANGELO PATRI,

A BOUT the worst thing that can
happen to adolescent boys and
girls is to deprive them Of q chance
to do useful, productive work. There
is time in their growth when they
need to work. need to use their minds
and hands in some sort of activity
that brings successful results. II that
time passes it cannot be brought back.
Never again will that child want to
learn to work, never again will he
have the drive to create. to conquer
materials, to help himself by using
himself. 1t is the duty of every father
and mother. every school. every social
group, to provide the young people
with opportunities for work, actual
and worthy.
Some people say, Childhood is too
precious to be used in work." That is
nonsense. if may say so. Childhood
is precious because it is the one chance
a child has to grow. to prove himself.
to investigate life at first hand and
find his place in it. He does this by
using himself. his mind and his hands,
in work. actual. not make-believe
work.
And there are fathers and mothers
who are afraid to send their children
to a job lest they make mistakes. get
into difficulties. be made unhappy one
way or another. This fear Is natural,
but 1t should be overcome. The chill
dren will certainly make mistakes.
certainly meet dif1iculties. some of
their own making, some thrust upon
them. But they will have to meet
those conditions later on anyway, and
the time for them to meet and over
come them is in the beginning. when
they are forming their minds and
bodies for adult service. Let that time
go by and there is the danger that
they never have the power to adjust
themselves.
And there are the people who say,
There is no necessity for the chill
dren, meaning young people in
adolescence, to work. Let adults do
the work" Adults will do the work.
But the young people ought to be
serving their apprenticeship under
the eyes Of the mastery adults. They
should be learning in their learning
time. lest that time pass and they are
left stranded and helpless.
Work is not a curse, it is priv
ilege and necessity for the health
of body and soul. Men never live
happily and well on dole. They feel
less than adequate, less than men.
Give them work, a chance to put the
strength Of their minds and backs
into q job they love to do; and they
are doubly strong, doubly efficient and
fit.
We must see that young people in
their teens, those whose minds and
bodies nature has prepared for work,
have the chance they crave. We will
be q stupid people indeed if We can
not hnd . way. There is . vast diff
ference in child labor and useful oc-
cupation for adolescent boys and girls
fitted by nature to begin work.
This should be on the conscience Of
legislators, employers, educators and
parents until some way Is found to
give our youth the outlets they require
for spiritual and physical health.
They must have useful, worthy work.

Q great revival all over the country
on just your project. Keep the end
Of the barn with the large doors for
your seats. Just inside the entrance
have two large tables; they may be
planks set on saw horses. They will
be work tables for the laboratory part
of the theater for costume making
and such-and will serve excellently
for Bullets on occasion. Seats should
be benches made Of planks. Give
your stage ID inches elevation If pos
sible. Use curtain Of material that
Is heavy, like monks cloth. Arrange
for q small door on at least one side
off-stage to the outside as you will
not have room for dressing rooms,
props and all the necessary technicians

nEAR MISS NOVEL;:
We have three fireplaces at our
beach house with black iron fire- irons
and tools. These have become 50
rusty that they are not attractive or
pleasant to handle. Is there any
thing that We can do about them or
should We start over new again? Is
there any other metal that will not
rust In the salt air?
Mrs. c. L. ", Ocean City, Md.
Answer-Stainless steel or chrom-
ium do not rust, but unless your house
is very modern they will look slightly
out Of place. Try rubbing down the
old ones with coarse steel wool to re-
move the rust. then give them q coat
Of red lead-paint which will prevent
the rust starting again, and then a
coat Of black paint. II your flre gets
very hot it will burn some of the paint
on the andirons-but If you will paint
them just before you leave in the fall
they will last for years.

best ingredients have gone into the
making.
An assortment attractively arranged
on big platter with pickles and 4
touch of greenery has few rivals as
summertime piece de resistance.
You will find several types Of
loaves from which to choose. one of
veal with little pork added and
another OF beef and pork. One Of
the most delicious Of prepared loaves
on the market is a combination loaf of
spiced ham put together with gelatin,
salad dressing. pickles, pimento, and
pistachio nuts. This loaf is also
made with veal or "Berliner," 4 ham
sausage.
Then there is the mouth watering
tongue loaf consisting Of whole tongue

German jellied loaf made with pork

ing slightly sour flavor. The popu-
lar head cheese is made from lean
pork head trimmings, lean pork and
pork tongue. bound with cornmeal
and seasoned well with caraway.
FROM the sausage line your assort-
ment may include liver sausage,
blood sausage. any of the various types
OF summer sausage. and bologna. Each
type will vary little according to ma
tionality or the whims of it's maker,
largely in the matter of splicing. Good
liver sausage contains pork livers and
ground pork. Blood sausage, of Ger
man origin, contains blood, bacon and
pork tongue. At its best salami, the
favored Italian summer sausage, con-
tains all pork. although beef is some-
times used and garlic fiavoring. Other
types of summer sausage are made
of beef, pork. or both. Bologna is
made with veal or in the cleveland"
style, with beef. veal and pork.
And there are other types Of cold
meats to be had, ah yes! But consult
your butcher. He can also supply you

Much depends on woman's ap-
proach to man who is set and de-
termined on remaining a bachelor
Go slow. because he is easily fright
ened off. Don't rush him or he is
lost. If you ask him to call alone
he will be filled with suspicion and
decline. but you can lure him into
little parties. You can ply him with
attentions SO insidiously that before
he knows it he will have begun to de-
pend on you for making things pleas
ant and interesting for him.
IF HE is fond of good food your
= task is comparatively easy. You
have only to feed the brute. Get him
into the habit of dropping in for some
special dish that you aver you pre-
pared yourself and you will soon have
him eating wedding cake out of your
hand.
Be good listener. Lend him your
ears while he tells you all of his trou-
bles and boasts to you of all of his
triumphs. You yourself must be the
judge Of how much flattery he will
stand for, but most men like it slapped
on with trowel. Anyway, when you
have made him feel that in a dull
and stupid world you are the only one
who really appreciates how wonderful
and witty and handsome he is, you've
got him.
Make yourself necessary to him.
Make your house the pleasantest
place he ever goes. Your dinners the
best he ever eats. Your company the
most sympathetic he finds anywhere
Make him form the habit of going
about with you. Then, suddenly, 60
on to Europe or to visit your sister in
California and let him find out how
much he misses you. That will bring
him to the point.
The main thing, however, is not to
weary in well-doing. Keep on the
job. Persistence will wear any man
down. Keep as your example the lady
who trailed her man for three years
and finally captured him.

Dark and light red plums, as well as
the sweet yellow ones, have arrived in
good quantity. Watermelons, honey
dews and cantaloupes are going strong.
Peaches. of course, are most plentiful
Of all, and very reasonable in price
Gooseberries, currants. raspberries and

grapefruit are still at definite low.
Beef has scampered higher and
