Naturally, she'll want to know
about you-where you came from,
where you're living, what you think
of Benny Goodman's music. Ask
her to walk home with you some
afternoon after school. If she has
a particularly close friend, invite
her as well, and you'll have made
a long step toward getting ac-
quainted.
Liking Sports
Will Help.
If you're boy, the same sugges-
tions apply. Perhaps you're inter-
ested in baseball or track, or some
other sport which your new school
goes In for. Attend the practice
sessions, even if the season is al
most over. If there's a game Of
softball going on somewhere near
the school, be spectator until
you get chance to play. Mutual
interests soon lead to friendships,
so go where other boys with tastes
similar to yours are likely to be
found.

you haven't gone to Sunday school
since you graduated from the pri-
mary room, but it won't hurt you
to go back. Teen-age boys and girls
still 60 to Sunday school, believe
it or not. and they're not just the
future clergymen and missionaries,
either.
After school has closed make 1t
practice to 60 to the places where
young people congregate. You don't
have to have your own gang to go
to pool and enjoy swim. If you
turn up at the tennis courts with q
racket and good disposition, you'll
get chance to play sooner or later
And every casual acquaintance you
make is one more step in the right
direction.
OF course, at first you won't know
which of the young people you meet
will be your real friends later. Don't
be too eager to form a close rela-
tionship. Don't get any "crushes'
for while Don't push yourself.
Take it slowly, be friendly with ev-

The main idea is to have things
prepared for it early In the day,
and the one hot dish or food readily
whipped together in a short time. I
am including today q recipe for
quick orange rolls that are deli
cious for Sunday night supper. They
may be served with nodded gelatine
salad Of almost any kind: yellow to-
mato juice jellied, tomato aspic. or
rhubarb gelatin are all good, set on
a bed OF crisp greens, and well
chilled.
A nourishing hot soup added to
this would make fine light supper,
good enough for any one!

Of Showing He

BY ANGELO PATRI.

stand up. tall children" Fifty
little backs stretched and so little
heads lifted. One A was about to
be dismissed. They marched out, a
long line of happy, straight-backed
youngsters. All day they had been
reminded, stand up tall, children"
One has to keep saying that in a
classroom where so little ones are
taking their first lessons in group
living.
Health is the basic consideration
in any aspect Of life. It is not
going to do any of us any good,
especially the children of school age,
to study ways of improving ourselves
II pursuit of those ways leads to hol-
low chests, curved backs. fiat feet
and defective vision. This fact,
freighted as it is with awful conse-
quences, is often disregarded by
those who build, maintain and man.
age schools.
School building does not keep time
with increased school population.
We find schools where too many
children are crowded into one room.
We find classrooms that are poorly
lighted. Sanitary conditions in the
building, toilets, sinks, washrOOms,
boilerroomS, classrooms are not
only poor. in some towns, but down.
right bad. Such conditions reduce
the possibilities fcr health in the
school population.
We are sending children longer
distances to school. in buses, in the
hope of giving them better learning
conditions. What are we doing to
assure ourselves that these children
get good lunches, a chance to wash
their hands and faces in clean
washroom, chance to play and
to rest in sanitary. sun-lighted play
spaces? The fine consolidated
school building that does not pro-
vide such conveniences for its chill
dren is falling far short of its
object. Building a healthy body is
more important than building an
imposing school building.
A healthy child can be seen a
block off and known by his posture.
His back will be stretched up tall;
he will stand tall walk, talk, sit tall,
and carry his head up. The school
that can dismiss its children for
the day with the impress of that
posture upon them Is doing its work
we'll. There is no need to fear that
its pupils will not pass regents or
win medals. They have power stored
in their backbones. But the chill
dren who are bowed and bent, what
about them?
There is no use in telling them
to stand up tall. They must first
be fed SO that they can stand. They
must be given good food. enough
sleep in airy rooms, enough play in
sunny places, enough love in happy
homes to strengthen body and spirit
until they can stand up tall.
Teach children to enjoy good car
riage and posture. Show them what
it is, what it looks like. Teach them
to march to music carrying light
book on their heads. Teach them
to dance, doing the same thing.
Teach them to sit. stand, walk. up
tall, head up, back stretched. This
is task for home and school, quite
as important as any other phase OF
child education.

.Gadgets Help
Your Daily
Grooming
Protect Your Gown
From Powder and
Hair With Cape
BY PATRICIA LINDSAY.

Boldoir caps have returned to
vogue! But not the frilly, berib-
boned models which grandmother
used to wear to hide her kid curriers'
from grandad! No indeed. The
modern nightcap adopts its style
from flying helmet, made of
featherweight netting with a f1imsy
stretchable chin strap which you
never feel during your peaceful
slumbers. 1t Is close-fitting and
nicely tailored and, as 1t comes in
II delectable shades, you actually
may be sleeping beauty while you
wear 1t!
The trick is to comb your hair
and push every wave and ringlet
into place before slipping into the
little net helmet. The morning will
find your hair-do smooth as
whistle!
Some women like to wear this
cap while taking a hot tub (to pro-
tect their curls from steam, or
when they change dresses, so their
coiffures will not be mussed. A
dainty aid If there ever was one.
Many time you have been ex-
asperated because you ruined your
pretty makeup and mussed your
hair when you slipped into your
gown. At the last minute you had
to make repairs!
Meticulous beauties solve this
problem by leaving their makeup
and hair combing to last, and use
an attractive washable cape to pro-
tect their gowns from powder or
dandruff. No fear then of smearing
your lipstick or getting fascinating
curl caught by hook or button!
Ragged cuticles, splitting nails and
rough hands cry for attention. And
the best thing you can do about all
three Is to massage your hands and
nails each night with warm oil
or rich hand cream and slip them
into loose-f1tting cotton gloves. Then
the good work of lubricating will go
on while you slumber. You may
buy just an inexpensive pair of
cotton gloves or-to be real chic
get pair, flesh-tinted, which tie at
the wrists with narrow ribbon!

IA a ACW IOWu VI CIIy. AIlQ ~ Is u
problem.
Perhaps you don't want to move
at all. You may have already shed
tears and stamped your feet and
caused some fine family rows over
the prospect. But move you will, in
spite of all your protests. And soon
the old gang will be left behind, and
there you'll be, stranger in a
strange world. What to do?
Well, first of all, we're going to tell
you what not to do. Don't NOPE.
Sitting around with your head in
your hands won't do a bit of good,
and it's a firing position that will
eventually give you backache.
And don't 60 shy on us. Your in
feriority complex will probably tell
you that all the boys and girls in
this new community already have
their own friends, that they're busy
enough now, that you have nothing
to offer them, and they wouldn't like
you If you had. Don't believe it,!
The boy or girl hasn't been born
who doesn't want to get acquainted
with any new person in the neigh
borhooo. Who knows? You may
be the one they've been waiting
for all their lives.
Get the Right
Attitude.
So make up your mind right now
that you're going to meet lot of
young people whom you'll like tre-
mendously, and who'll like you just
as much. Make yourself genuinely
eager to find new friends. It's a
contagious attitude, and once peo-
pie see you have it, they'll come
more than half way to meet you.
Now for the actual making of the
contacts. If you're going to school,
in new .community-even if it's
only for few weeks-half the prob
lem is solved. You'll be thrown
into direct association in your
classes with other boys and girls
with whom you have lot of things
in common. Your school work, for
example.
Ask questions about it. If the
girl who sits next to you has a
normally kind face, smile at her
when class is over and ask some
sensible question about the next
days assignment. Knowing you're
new. she'll be eager to give you a
helping hand. incidentally. she will
get a chance to show you how much
she knows about the school and the
teachers, and the subjects you are
| studying. And she'll like that.

The bodice has soft gathers: the

This Is an ideal style for your

alter its personality from time to

Dorothy Dix Says
Marriage Is Gamble and Men
Just Have to Take a Chance

Dear Miss Dix-I am in love
with a very fine man who is in
love with me. We are congenial,
have the same background, edu-
cation and taste and are perfectly
suited to each other. He is a pro-
fessional man and can afford to
take on the responsibility of matri-
mony. The only drawback is that
he fears marriage, says he has seen
too many unhappy marriages to
risk it. That leaves me in the
hole. What can I do about it?
THE GIRL.
Answer-The young man evil
dently has what doctors term pre-
marital nerves." Most people get
them when marriage ceases to be
the romantic adventure which they
vaguely expected to undertake some
time in the far-off future and be-
comes a concrete plunge over a
cliff which they are scheduled to
make the 10th Of next month.
Then one realizes all of its hazards
and dangers and wonders why one
was ever fool enough to undertake
1t. There is something about the
awful f1nality of that until-death-
do-us-part oath that gives the
boldest the jitters. If the truth
were known, probably every bride
and bridegroom stumble to the
altar on frozen feet.
How you can cure your young
man Of his promonitory shivers on
the brink Of matrimony, do not
know. For even if he has seen many
unhappy marriages he has seen
plenty of happy marriages, and he
has little sporting blood in him
If he is not willing to back his own
judgment in picking out a wife and
take chance on it.
You might point out to him that
there are no sure things in life and
that we have to take q gamble on
everything we do. The farmer who
plants a crop Is not certain of reap
ing a golden harvest. The young
man who spends years In fitting
himself for profession cannot tell
If he will be failure or success in
it. No business man knows how q
deal is going to turn out.
So there you are, and it is the same
way with marriage. Some of the
marriages that we think were made
Evening star., 1939-04-20

in heaven turn out to have been
manufactured in the other place,
while other marriages that we were
sure would end in divorce within a
year 60 on happily to their golden
wedding days. l advise your young
man to gather up his courage and
take the plunge. The water is fine.
Dear Dorothy DIX am in love
with widower with children. He is
II years my senior. Is this too much
difference between our ages? Will
there likely be trouble between the
children and myself? I have been
married and divorced once and do
not wish to make another mistake
What are my chances of happiness
with this man? UNDECIDED.
Answer-Not so very good, for the
odds are two to one against you.
There is the husbands age to begin
with. There is a whole generation
between you and the man and it
will be very hard for you to adapt
yourselves to each other. You will
be wanting to dance and go places
and amuse yourself, and he will want
to settle down.
You belong to the generation of
girls who know little of domestic
affairs and he will want a good cook
And you will find that your opinions
and tastes and habits clash on prac-
tically every point in the world, be-
cause his were formed before the
revolution that has taken place in
customs and morals and manners in
the last II years, while yours belong
to the modern age.
And there are the children. It
takes woman who Is wise and tol-
Grant, patient and unselfish to make
a good stepmother. 1t is the hardest
job on earth and one that no young
girl is capable of handling. Better
marry somebody your own age with
no membranes.

way with marriage. Some of the

about my nice warm living room or
what fun CD it was to be seeing all
the edible items on display!
AS matter of fact, the weather
has had pretty much the same effect
on produce as it had upon met
made us both limp and dull! How
ever, the dealers assure me that by
the week end things should be pick
ing up-and I hope I'll do the same!
Vegetables and fruits follow the
same general trend; there are some
nice baby zucchini squash that
would be delicious cooked halved In
salted boiling water, and served like
vegetable marrow. Peas are sup
posed to be coming down in price,
I hope by tomorrow this dream will
prove an actuality. Asparagus has
never been better; Carolina straw
berries taste just like the ones from
the garden patch of our youth. and,
I am told, will touch new low IN
price over the week end. Greens,
from local sources, have suffered
bit because of the rains, but that
condition should be remedied by the
time this appears in print. Arti-
chokes are taking final tling-they
make spendid course to substitute
for salad occasionally, and the
hearts are delicious served in soups
or combined with other vegetables.
Rib Roast Is
Recommended.
Rib roast of beef seems to be the
best buy in the meat line. You may
choose the classic standing roast. or
YOU may have it boned and rolleo
for you. There are also roasts that
come already boned, rolled and
wrapped in cellophane, ready 10 De
put into the oven; this cooking IN
the cellophane Is said to preserve
the natural juices and flavor.
If YOU choose the standing roast,
try carving it this way: Set 1t on the
meat platter before you, with the
heavy end to your right, and the rlo
bones to the left. Remove the thick,
crusty layer of fat on top horizon
tally with a sharp knife, and lay IT
to one side. Then carve the roast In
slices against the meat-that is,
across the bones. Cut right down to
the bottom until you reach bone,
having the slices thick or thin
as you prefer. In this way. every
one gets the same quality Of meat,
and the same amount of done
ness" You may cut pieces Of the
crusty fat and add to the plates OF
those who like little of it with
their lean meat. I have found that
so carved roast will 60 good deal
further than usual.
Sunday Night Supper
Important Meal.
Maybe you don't agree with me
about this, but think supper Sum-
day night is one of the incest meals
Of the week. It Is usually so infor-
NAL, so pleasant and full of con-
versation. with a. few friends drop
ping in during the evening, that 1t
seems shame to relegate it to the
leftover menu" class.

der the direction of Mrs. Pearl

The service of the Orchestra men
who have Joined the choir gives
great help to the program.
In the afternoon, the Union SER
vices of all Omaha churches held
at st John was very impressive
and we'll attended. The sermon was
preached by Rtv. Hilson pastor of
Salem Baptist Church. 1t is great
iy encouraging to have these Union
services. Let us hope they may
continue to draw JUS a little closer
together.
At 7:30 P. NJ. the Sunday school
program was presented. 1t was
very interesting. Those in charge
