make several sets for yourself and
lay few aside for gifts. You can
do it for a song-probably even have
sufficient pieces of percale, dimity
or linen about the house right now
to make at least one set. They re-
quire so little material.
You'll notice that the pinafores
both button on the shoulders and
cross their straps in the back, so
you can depend upon the straps not
to slide down just when you've got
your hands in the dough or some-
thing. They and the little tie
around all have q charming and
generous flare.

Aggressive
Child and
Mother
Combat Probe, IS
By Establishing
Organization
BY ANGELO PATRI.

Apartment dwellers have their
own problems. There are many
children in these houses and many
kinds of mothers. The complica-
tions that arise are numerous and
puzzling. How is one to defend his
children against aggression and not
get into a controversy with the ag-
gressor's mother? There is always
an aggressive child, and an aggres-
sively proud mother in the back
ground egging him on if not by
words at least by implication.
One such little girl has ANNOYED
every mother in a big apartment
house and they are helpless in her
power. She is 6 years old, and the
only person in the world she needs
is her mother, who usually lets her
go her way until she annoys her
too much. Then she uses a strap
with vigor and gets immediate
results.
This youngster likes to steal up to
the carriage where baby is sleeping
and joggle it until he awakes. No
amount of pleading touches her
you dassent touch me-" says she
to the victimized mother. Nobody
does touch her, save her own mother,
and it doesn't seem to bother her
when her child bothers other people
Now what are these others to do?
1t seems to me that they might
select three of their number to
list the complaints and present them
to the lady. She will not like it,
but then nobody likes what her
child does, and things cannot be
much worse. If there is no i'm
provement in the situation the
fathers can see the child's father
and lay the situation before him.
After that. there is the renting
agent. If he is told that he faces
a set of vacancies next October
unless this annoyance ceases, he
will act.
But I find that in such cases the
mothers who are victimized by the
little bully will suffer anything
rather than get into an argument
with the mother in question. 1--WE
don't want to get into trouble with
the neighbors. You know how it is.
What can we do to keep the peace?"
It takes the two sides to keep
peace. AS a small boy said to his
mother when she told him that he
must cooperate with his playmates:
II do, but they don't put in any co.
They do all the 'opping' and it's
always on me-" There is an occa-
sional person who will not cooperate
and do his share in keeping the
peace, and we must have peace even
if we have to fight for it.
If the mothers who are offended
day in, day out, by another mothers
behavior, would inform her that
they would no longer put up with it
and that they would not permit
her children to annoy theirs,
wouldn't it help? Few people can
stand up against united host such
as band mothers in an apart
ment house can form.
Why not organize to care for the
children on an established sched-
ule? Appoint leaders, tenders, play
supervisors, advisers and the like.
Hold monthly meeting where
problems that concern the children
and their mothers are discussed.
Establish kindergarten in the
house and day nursery. These
things are possible with little outlay
Of brain power. There's more ways
Of killing cat than choking it with
butter, you know.

cheaper than last week. Oysters
are getting better all the time, with
cooler weather and water-soon I'll

a fine buy, and there is still some
Eastern salmon to be had, although
most of it now is coming from the

The sight of sleek green peppers

cluded in the menu for today-it
may be used as an unusual vegetable
combination, at big dinner, or it
makes a perfect luncheon or supper

add a few chopped cooked fresh or
canned mushrooms to the mixture
to make it tastier and more sub
stantial as a main course.

Dorothy Dix Says
Flattery Best Weapon to Combat
Husbands Lack of Ambition

how good they are, so they get passed
over. They are just the men who
get in rut and stay there. And
there is little hope for them unless
a benevolent go-getter comes along
and pushes them out of it. They
haven't the ability to climb out
themselves.
Probably your husband belongs to
this class. If he does there isn't
much you can do about it, unless
you can build up his self-confidence
by praising him and making him be-
lieve in himself. Husbands are very
susceptible to their wives flattery,
which is something that the little
woman only too often forgets. For a
wife to be continually goading her
husband about his lack of ambition
and reminding him of his failures
and demanding to know why he
can't get along like other men takes
the last bit of heart and courage out
OF him and sinks him.
Try little soft soap on your hus-
band and see if it doesn't make him
get move on himself.
Dear Miss Dix: I am a girl of
IS, very beautiful. I want to be a
movie actress and unless I can I
will never be happy. I have great
talent, but have never been able
to get test made, although I have
written to lots of directors. My girl
friends tell me to go out with the
boys and forget the movie stars.
What shall do? MARGARET,
Answer-Take their advice. It is
easier to get into heaven than it is
into Hollywood. There are tens of
thousands of girls who go to Holly
wood every year to astound the world
with their beauty and their genius
who never get nearer their hearts
desires than the barred gate of a
studio lot. DOROTHY DIX.

SN~SSNSe~AA
cavort about a campus in sport
jacket and crepe-soled shoes, you're
indulging in a very dangerous form
of seh-deception. Every American
city and town of any size offers al
most unlimited opportunities to
young people to acquire all kinds Of
specialized knowledge and training
that will help them to get better
Jobs, or find employment if they're
not working.
Perhaps you don't believe that
statement. All right, let's test it.
Let's turn to the Schools" classifi-
cation In the telephone directory Of
a medium-sized city, and see what
kinds of training are offered.
Courses Listed There
Cover Many Fields.
First of all, we find the local high
schools offer night classes in almost
every subject open to the regular
day student. If you haven't COM
pleted your high school course,
therefore, you can do it by attend
AIiS lew luBHCS a week.
Local colleges also offer night
courses in long list of subjects re-
quired for the usual bachelor of
arts and bachelor of sciences de-
grees. Complete information about
these courses can be obtained merely
by calling the college registrar.
But that's only the beginning.
Specialized schools are training
students in the following subjects
and even this list isn't complete:
Accountancy, advertising, COM
mercial art of all kinds, aviation,
aeronautical engineering, air-condi-
tioning and electrical refrigeration
electrical work of various kinds,
radio in all its branches, dramatics,
music, dancing, public speaking,
| salesmanship, Diesel engineering
hotel and restaurant work, beauty
culture. cooking and sewing, cos
tune designing, law, foreign Ian
guages, bookkeeping. hairdressing
manicuring, millinery, writing of
various types. businessmachine op-
Grafton. drafting, interior decora-
ton, clothes modelling, linotype op-
Grafton. physical education, stenog-
raphy, secretarial work and type
writer repairing.
Furthermore, many department
stores and other large organizations
have their own training courses
which they give to promising job
applicants. And, after you have ex-
hausted the local possibilities, there
are nationally known correspond
ence schools which train their STU
dents in every subject under the
sun.
Here Are Some Hints on
How to Pick a Course.
So there are plenty of opportu-
mites for you to get more educa-
ton while you are working at your

party 1dTe. ALSO economical ana
satisfactory for the autumn dinner
are the turkeys from last spring
crop, which we have mentioned be-
fore. There are good many more OF
these available than usual this year,
and while turkey. may pail after a
few months of partying-right now
1t is new and appetizing. And
there are fresh cranberries to make
sauce to go with it, too.
Another good buy in the poultry
line is duck--plump young ones,
that are selling for as low as have
seen them in years. A pair of ducks
will feed the average party we'll
and not put any strain whatsoever
on the budget. The prices on
chickens have edged up trif1e, but
not enough to matter much.
Meat Prices
Steady.
Meat prices, for the most part,
show little change. Pork has dropped
a few cents and so has lamb; beef
stays about the same as last week.
Small, individual minute steaks are
a good buy; broil them quickly and
dress them lavishly with parsley
butter, garnish with watercress.
Kidneys are cheap-and are hard
to beat when broiled on skewers
with strips of bacon and fat mush-
rooms. Veal is still a good buy,
especially in the less fancy cuts.
Fruits and vegetables are plenti-
full as usual-and many supplies are
augmented by items grown nearby,
that have delightfully."- fresh and
"garden-y" look and flavor. Among
these are the tiny goose meek yellow
squash and fat pods of okra. Spin
ach, too, is being grown in this
vicinity, and because of this will
keep longer at home before cooking
than the kind that is shipped from
far away. Don't wash it, and store
it in a cool space until ready for USE
There are plenty of sweet red pep
pers, as we'll as green ones, for cook
ing and pickling-and punches and
punches of the red-hot long peppers
that burn like f1re--also for picking,
to be seen everywhere. DamSons,
crabapples and baby yellow pear
tomatoes-do you remember the
wonderful marmalade that used to
be made of them? Nowadays, they
have attained recognition at the
cocktail party, and appear, thor
oughly chilled, on toothpicks, around
a bed of seasoned salt. Golden
bantam corn (on its way out, sadly
enough, pearly leeks and big white
mushrooms from new beds are some
of the joys not to be overlooked.
Fruit Plentiful
And Varied.
All the fruits we mentioned last
week are still to be found-and in
addition we have raspberries, russell
Seckel pears of enormous size from
California, big juicy persimmons,
Persian melons and, as we suggest
ed above-the first cranberries of
the season.
We almost forgot to report on our
pet hobby-fish The fact is that
there is really no news about it this

present job or searching for one.
But perhaps that doesn't solve your
problem. Maybe you don't everf
know what you want to study or
what courses might be most valu-
able to you.
We suggest that you talk the
matter over with a local school Of
fetal or teacher in whom you have
confidence and who knows some
thing of your abilities. Then, If
there is Federal or State employ
ment agency near you, talk to the
person in charge there, asking for
advice regarding the kinds of
workers who are in demand. With
competent, impartial opinion of
your abilities on the one hand, and
knowledge of the kind of workers
needed on the other, it will be sim
pie enough to match up the two
and hit on course of study which
is sure to be valuable to you.
Now for word OF warning. Be-
fore signing up for a course from
a school about which you know
nothing, consult some one who can
tell you of its standing-particularlS,
before paying out money for regis
tration or other fees. Most such
schools are legitimate, but a few
of them are little better than rack
cts. If local school authorities can't
advise you, consult your Better Busi-
ness Bureau. They know all about
the frauds and takers.
Finally, don't forget your public
library. AS long as a person will
continue to read he can continue
to learn. Ask the librarian for books
dealing with the work in which you
are interested. And if we can be of
any help drop us line.
The good jobs of 10 years from
now will be held by the young peo-
pie who have the foresight to lock
ahead, the sense to realize that they
must keep studying and the zeal
and determination to take advan-
tage of the educational opportunities
that exist all around them. Ally
yourself with this alert, ambitious
group and you won't have to worry
about not going to college!

Dear Miss Dix: Don't you think
that other people value you as much
as you value yourself? My husband
is hard-working man who has been
with a firm for five years. He was
taken on as an extra and did all
the work no one else wanted to do
and for all his hard labor he has got
nowhere. Others have been en-
ployed since. but he still stands as
an extra and now they want to lay
him of regardless of seniority
Wouldn't he have been better of
if he had demanded the same treat
ment as the other employees?
SENSIBLE.
Answer-Undoubtedly to some ex-
tent We write our own price tags
We can only do as much as we think
we can do and a certain amount of
self-confidence is necessary to sue
cess in any line.
But the trouble is we must be able
to gauge what we are really worth
and not mark ourselves up to some
fancy figure that is beyond our real
value. No people do themselves such
an i'll service as those who go about
blowing their own horns and telling
about how great and wonderful they
are when everybody can see for
themselves that they are second or
third raters or who refuse to do
the humble work they are capable
of doing because they think they
should be running banks or COM
manding armies or that their right
full places are on the Supreme Court
bench.
OF course, 1t takes some push to
get on in the world and many men
fail just because they do not know
how to sell themselves to their en-
ployers. They don't know how to
call attention to their work and show
