in the glowing Goals. And the
grownup feeling because now one
knew about Santa Claus, but helped
to keep up the myth for the young
er children.
A first dance-on another Christ
mas Eve, with ones heart shaking
ones ribs, because of excitement and
fear of being wallfoWer. The gay
decorations of holly, the magnet
like bunch of mistletoe, the banked
poinsettias along the stairs where
one sat for supper with ones first
best beau. The stiff white embroid-
cred dress, sashed in red, and the
whiting bunch of red roses clutched
in ones hand. And the first mid
night saying of Merry Christmas. ="
And as Time
Goes OH
A Christmas Eve following closely
on the death of a loved parent
when every memory panied and
grief seemed to burst forth afresh
When Wreaths went to the ceme-
terry and not to the front door,
when there was no heart for a
Christmas tree or the giving of pres
ents. When the church service had
almost too much meaning and
everything tore at ones heart.
The first Christmas eve in a
brand-neW home, with brand-new
husband-and the excitement of
decorating ones own tree, and ones
own windows, and comparing notes
about childhood Christmases. The
quiet JOY of the fire whispering in
the CRATE, the being alone. and the
general WalloWing in sentiment
about the first holiday season to-
gether.
Christmas eve in still another
home-this one across the sea, with
new customs and traditions to fol-
low and observe with interest. Other
ways, other decorations, all fasci-
natingly new and different Glo-
rious music in all the churches,
children singing in great living
rooms to venerable eat-grandpar-
ents or grandparents, dignified and
stern. Great cleaning trees and
punches of mistletoe, so large that
they could not be got through the
door sometimes!
First Christmas ewes with the
children, always more fun, year
after year, as the youngsters grew
and fourished. In various cities,
in various countries-but always to-
gether. and still using some of the
childish baubles that decorated trees
in our baby days. The types of
presents gradually changing-from
dashing trains and soft. furry ami
mails, to initiated wallets, and short
fur jackets. But always the tree
to be trimmed. and the packages to
be placed-while the Beacon Hill"
candles CLEAN in the windows, the
breath of pine permeates the room,
and the spirit of Christmas eve
lives once again

ing in the 5-year-old youngster are
the traits of a moron at so.
This is hard and practical
world. Gertrude. in which there is
far more work than singing in the
sun. Somebody has to shoulder re-
sponslbility. Somebody has to bear
burdens. Somebody has to look
ahead and provide food and shelter
and sustenance for every family. So
l should not advise you to marry
man who in his thirties has still
the heart and mind of boy That
is, unless you have had bad case
of the mother complex and want
child whom you can keep tied to
your apron strings and lead by the
hand. If you feel that way about
it, go to it. and you will get your
reward in his always loving you and
looking up to you and depending
upon you.
But don't think you can change
the man. He is even as nature
made him. He will never be meta
morphosed into a sturdy oak. He
will always be a broken reed to
lean upon. You will never be able
to sew up the holes in his pockets.
He will always be an easy mark
for all the chiselers. He will al
ways be a weakling. And you can
do nothing for him except to love
him and take care of him. You
can't supply him with backbone.
But he will always have his elfln.
boyish charm for you-if it doesn't
sour on you after years of petting
and coddling a 6-foot infant.

By BARBARA BELL,

For general all-round wear, there's
nothing more suited to the special
requirements Of the SO to So sizes
than the classic shirtwaister, that
smart women make. two and three
at time, in fabrics for every season
Of the year. Here's a new design for
the practical shirtwaist dress that
will freshen up your midwinter
wardrobe smartly.
With Slight blouse at the waist
line, skirt that widens at the hem
and easy armholes, this dress is
comfortable and convenient for
housework, if you make it up in
gingham calico or pefcale. Also,
there's such a finished tailored look
about it. The trim, turnover collar,
smooth shoulder yoke with gathers
below for correct ft) and darted
waistline, are equally appropriate
for street, business and shopping.
For general weah choose flannel,
wool crepe, tie six or fiat crepe.

REFRIGERATOR DOORS RECEIVE
 MORE BANGING
Each Part of Modern Ma- chine Subjected to Inten-
 sive Abuse and Trials

The door of the household re- frigerator is opened and closed more than any other door of the house, according to w. s. Pullen, local General Electric dealer.
 GA door -slamming machine slams the door of each test model 500 000 times, the equivalent of 30 years use, before the cabinet design is accepted by General Electric for production he said.
 Other interesting refrigerator facts revealed by MT. Pullen are as follows.
 A jiggling machine shakes and jostles the test cabinet day in and day out to prove it sturdy Finally the abused machine goes to the hot room where it is tested for cold capacity

 Years of research and experiment are required to perfect each im- proyement before it is incorporated in new model General Electric started experimenting in 1912 with various types of refrigeration units, but it was not until 1927 that this company introduced the first com pletely sealed refrigerating unit.

Brides of 1888 are seeking novelty in their wedding costumes.
 Dressmakers who have goWned some of the years most famous brides say they never knew a sea- son when so many tried to be diff ferent.
 It's largely a difference in ac- cessories and attendants costumes however. White or ivory gowns trains and veils will still be in the lead when those glamorous we'd ding pageants begin to move down flower banked aisles this June.
 But there is news in the way in which that traditional wedding paraphernalia is handled. Sheer gowns of silk net, tulle, mar quisette and lace are in favor this year, though a number of the most fashionable spring brides have clung tO the ca atin
