Gates that you have no male friends
of your own who will extend such
invitations to you. Now, that may
be a true statement of your un-

better to try to find out why you
have no dates, or no friends who will
skate with you at a rink after you
get there, and then to do everything
you can to correct that situation.
And don't be too ready to explain
your datelessnesS by the fact that
you dislike petting. That's an easy,
face-saving excuse, but it seldom
tells the whole story. If the boys

correctly worn as a two-piece dress
or as suit with an extra sweater

when you want to look your best
and create an impression not to be

with the present fashion interest in
jet jewelry, trimming and acces-
sories and it has the same mysteri-
Gus quality and sophisticated charm
that is to be found in sparkling jet
touches.

For a long while now there's been
very helpful campaign toward
individualized makeup being car
ried on in the beauty world. You
probably know all about blended
powders which are made up to your
skin specifications. but have you
heard about the foundation cream
which is created expressly for the
individual? It's a new idea and
smart one, for there is always trou-
BILE in getting just the proper tone
of foundation to complement each
complexion.
You can't buy this foundation by
mail or over the telephone, for it's
necessary to trot downtown and
take your face with you, so to speak.
Then you consult the master color
ist, who looks long and hard at
your skin under day and evening
lights. Once the cream is created
to your requirements, the formula
is kept on file, SO that you may
order refills at any time. You'll be
really surprised at the things you
can do with the new foundation,
for if you learn to apply it cor
rectly you can actually change the
appearance Of your facial contours.
The best idea is to get two founda-
tions-one for day and another for
evening-in order that the chang
ing light will have no incongruous
effects. If you want to go in for
this in a big way you may select
even more shades in order that you
may wear colors you've always
wanted. There'n be no trouble in
getting the correct tone when you
apply them, either, for they're pack
aged in half-ounce jars with trans
parent lucite tops, so you can't make
a mistake.

Good Dishes
Made With
Rabbit
Season Now Getting
Into Its Stride in
This Locality
BY BETSY CASWELL,
Womsn's Editor.

Rabbits will be really plentiful
shortly and many of you will be
looking for new ways of cooking
the inexpensive meat. The old
standby of rabbit stew" is hard
to beat, but other methods of prepa-
ration will lend variety to the
menus. Here are few suggestions
that you may want to tuck into
the recipe file for use from time
to time:
SOUR RABBIT.
Clean skinned rabbits we'll and
cut them at the joints. Take
teaspoon each of whole cloves. pep
percorns and allspice. Add 2 tea
spoons salt, 10 bay leaves and I
medium onions sliced thin. Add
them all to the rabbits and pour
vinegar just to cover over all. Let
stand for 2 days and, when ready
to cook, add a little water, set on
stove and let simmer for about n
hours.
RABBIT SOUP.
Skin and draw 2 young rabbits
and clean them well, washing them
thoroughly in warm water. Cut
the meat in small pieces and cover
with 2 quarts cold water. Add
onion, chopped, and bay leaf. Let
simmer until meat is tender enough
to almost fall apart, then add 1
tablespoon butter, u cup barley
and salt and pepper. Simmer
hour more before serving.
RABBIT EN- CASSEROLE.
Joint cleaned and drawn rabbit,
reserving the liver and heart for
sauce. Mix cup white wine with
l chopped onion, bay leaf. sprig
celery, salt and pepper. Pour this
over the rabbit, stir all we'll and
let stand for 4 hours. Drain of
liquid, setting it aside. Dredge the
rabbit in -four and fry it in butter
| to a golden brown. Place in a
casserole with y cup cooked minced
ham, 2 tomatoes, chopped. and II
small onions. Add the juices from
the frying pan, the strained mari
mating mixture, and let all simmer.
Chop the heart and liver and fry
| in a little butter. When brown add
p cup boiling water and pour all
into the casserole. When the rabbit
becomes tender add l cup white
wine, cook a little longer and serve
| in the casserole.
SMOTHERED RABBIT.
Clean skinned rabbit and cut into
| pieces. Season it well with salt,
pepper and paprika and dredge it
lightly with flour. Saute the rabbit
in hot skillet with tablespoons
drippings or butter, until it is golden
brown. Cover the rabbit thickly
with onions cut in slices and sprinkle
| the onions with salt. Pour over
all l cup thick sour cream, cover
skillet closely and simmer for l
hour. If you wish you may put
the pan in the oven at tempera-
ture of 1926 degrees and bake the
rabbit until it is tender, which will
| take about l hour.

POSSeSSiVe
Of
Women
Is Cause of Great
DissensiOn and
Broken Homes
By DOROTHY DIX.

The most common and the worst
of all feminine vices is possessive-
ness. 1t heads the list of all the
seven deadly sins that women can
commit against themselves and
their families. 1t wrecks more
homes, ruins more lives, causes
more strife than anything else in the
world. 1t is as insidious as the dope
habit and, like dope, it deadens its
victims to every sense of justice and
mercy and consideration for others.
This is a terrible indictment of those
who are our No. criminals, but
every word of it is true, and it
doesn't mitigate the offenses Of
these malefactors to say that women
are monopolists by nature and that
hereditary forces drive them into
grabbing and keeping for their sole
behoof and benefit anything they
can get their hands on, if they want
it. And, anyway, they are our
mothers and wives and sWeethearts
and have such sweet, innocent faces
so what the heck? But whatever
the reason or the alibi, if you will
look into the trouble that keeps
humanity groaning and law courts
busy, you will find that women's
possessiveness is at the bottom OF
most of it.
1t is women's possessiveness that
is solely responsible for the in-law
squabbles that break so many hearts
and keep the tear jugs in so many
households filled to over1owing.
1t is women's possessiveness that
is first aid to divorce. The reason
millions of men take to drink and
philandering is to try to escape
from their wives dominance. They
are simply coming up for air and
to get breath of freedom.
But the greatest sinner of them
all is the possessive mother, and
she is the one we meet most fire.
quently. She is the woman who, to
crafty her own selfish desire to
monopolize her children, shuts the
door of opportunity in their faces,
denies them the qualification of
natural human emotions and dooms
them to barren and frustrated lives.
Womens possessiveness! What
crimes 1t causes them to commit
And they call it love!
DOROTHY DIX.

Manners
of the
Moment

Some spouses have a way of using
silent disdain as their main weapon
in an argument.
Now this, I realize, is effective
for the one who uses it. But I con-
slider it an unfair marital practice.
1t gives the other fellow no re-
course except to be disdainfully
silent himself. And what is the re-
suit of two disdainful silences?
Total eclipse of two personalities.
Also, the method prolongs the
agony. If both are stubborn, this
silent disagreement can last for days.
And what's the good of being mar
ried at all if you're going to cut
yourselves off from all conversation
for half of your lifetime?
Of course, if you're stuck with a
spouse who uses this method of
