Rule 2. Hold your train with your

band of elastic is slipped over your

Rule S. If your left arm is laden
with bracelets, be especially careful
to keep it elevated. Otherwise it
rests heavily on your partners right

Rule 6. Don't wear foundation
garments or dresses too tight. They
hamper your action in dancing;
shorten your back steps.
Rule 7. Avoid fragile ornaments,
frills or bows on your bodice. They
will be crushed when you dance,
and your partner, seeing the dam

conscious and uncomfortable. This
goes for flowers, too. We like them

are best for dancing but beware of

Merry Christmas to all our
readers!
Most house plants thrive best
in a room where the tempera-
ture at night is from so to so
degrees and 10 to is degrees
higher in the daytime.
Do not open q window and
let cold air blow in, directly ON
plants. Window on the opposite
side Of room in which plants
are growing should be opened
to top. This will give plants
SUFFICIENT air.
When washing chamois gloves
do not rinse them. The more
soap left in them the softer
they are when dried. Slip them

clean towel, blow the fingers
out and hang gloves In . current

The average tubful Of clothing
requires six minutes for ordi-

overalls. Change the water
twice in laundering soiled
articles such as rugs and play
suits. Never overcrowd the
washing machine, since the gar

it for life, II there's any life left.
Most puppies who've never been
hurt start life with confidence, and
that feeling should be guarded, for
once gone it can never be re-
stored. Harm which comes to q
baby animal is the direct response
bility of the grown person who put
him where he Is or the one who is
standing nearest. Children fail to
reason. and their enthusiasm may
carry too much physical violence
for the delicate construction Of the
four-footed baby. All handling must
be done with care.
Pick puppy or kitten up 100 per
cent" Reach a hand under its
chest and another under its body at
the base of its hindlegs. Let it sit
in the hand. And keep a restraining
finger where it'll do the most good.
For puppies are wriggly ard may
Jump of their own accord, at which
time they break just as easily as II
they'd been pushed.
The majority of new pups are
placed in new homes when they're
between weeks and 3 months Of
age. The closer they are to 3
months the better chance they have
for survival.
It seems strange that almost every
species of life should have its own
special and almost private disease.
In young dogs distemper occupies
the honor position. But the puppy
should have been safeguarded from
the beginning by its breeder. This
is done by injecting distemper serum
into the youngster at regular inter-
walls. The serum acts to prevent
distemper from taking hold in case
there's any exposure. It might even
stir up a mild case of the same.
If that happens the puppy owner
will be told how lucky he is.
A puppy who's had a mild case OF
distemper during early infancy
doesn't have to be innoculated when
he reaches the ripe old age OF 8
months. That spell did the job for
him. But if he hadn't been pro-
tected by the serum in the first place
he probably would never have lived
to reach the innoculation age.
So, the owner of the Christmas
puppy should check up in detail as
to when the pup had its serum and
how much, and when it should have
it again. If no arrangements have
been made, consult veterinary and
act on his advice.
The little puppy also eats. If it's
under 3 months of age it should
be fed five times day. Menus
should include whole wheat bread
and warm milk, ground steak (fresh ,
vegetables such as peas and carrots
(no cabbage now or later and milk
and eggs. It eats until its little sides
are pleasantly rounded, not until it
has reached the bursting point. But
the only reason it doesn't pop is be-
cause it's dragged forcefully away
at the right point, or should be.
When it grows to S months of
age the feeding may be cut down
to the old standby of three meals
a day with possibly night-cap be-
fore bedtime. And that's the best
age to start feeding it soaked puppy
biscuits and sardines packed in
olive oil. And remember, dogs, large
or small. aren't equipped to handle
starch. Cats won't even try.
The chewing tendency will be
actively and maybe acutely noticed.
It's the result of having teeth. In
destructible toys help the situation
along. And make a mental note to
be aware of teething in both puppies
and kittens. The gums become sore
and the teeth seem to teeter on the

Dorothy Dix Says
Provide Place for Daughters
To Entertain Boys at Home

I have always contended that the
reason there are so many more old
maids now than there used to be,
and why so many sleepless mothers
toss on their beds asking themselves
where is my wandering girl to-
night" is because OF modern archi-
lecture whose chief objective seems
to be to jam pack as many people
as possible in the smallest amount
Of space, and to permit no one to
have as much privacy as the tradi-
tional goldfish in a glass bowl.
OF course, when we select our
homes we do not make moral issue
of the matter. We buy or rent an
apartment because we like the deco
rations or there Is some new gadget
in the kitchen or because it Is
good address, and we even fall for
the agents glib talk about its being
so small and cozy, or that the whole
place virtually opens up together.
We entirely overlook the fact that
the human soul is a lonely thing
that must be able to withdraw IT.
self from human contact at times
or else perish; that we cannot even
be with our best beloved contin-
ually without their getting on our
nerves. Nor can there be any doubt
that the reason there is so much
pickering and quarreling and domes-
tic discord is because families are
herded so closely together that they
step on each others toes, and that
starts them biting and kicking. Nor
can there be any question that the
little kitchenette apartments are
first aids to divorce.
Many reasons are given for the
decline and fall of in marriage, as
Mr.. Wegg would say, but the prin-
cipal cause of it is that in most
modern homes there is no place
where a man can do his counting,
and still less to pop the question,
without the whole family participant
ing in the romance. And not many
men are sure enough of their tech
nique as great lovers to crave an
audience.
It was different in the good old
days when every house had its par
lor with good, solid, soundproof
doors. Then Percy could tell Ange-
lima how beautiful and wonderful
she was and how he had loved her
from the first day he ever saw her,
and so on, and he could put his
heart in the job. But the thing is
impossible when all the place Ange-
lima has to receive her dates in a
little alcove that is part Of the liv-
ing room, with grandma sitting

who would like to have as much

that the more employees the stron-

sion of the legislature is recalled, it
seems that the matter cannot be dis
missed that lightly.
The 1889 Assembly record shows
that the House, if really serious and
sincere in its actions, would literally
have ridiculed the existing game re-
gulations of the department with To-
cal amendments and exceptions. The
Senate stood fast and saved the
statewide set-up. It is easy to re-
