tention and the love and patience
that only a mother can give.
There are a thousand ways to
account for the increase in divorce.
Mainly, think, it is selfishness. 1t
is selfishness on the part of parents
who do not train their children in
childhood for marriage by teaching
them self control and how to give
and take and sense of respon-
sibility.
And it is selfishneSs on the part
of both husbands and wives who
are not willing to make the sacri-
fees that marriage demands. They
want to run around after marriage
just as they did before, and dance
and f1irt and have good clothes and
good times. When they find they
can't do this, they quarrel and part.

Dorothy Dix Says 80
Mothers Should Take Position
Only When 1t Is Necessity

Dear Miss Dix: In our sociology
class We are to have a debate as to
whether married woman should
be employed in public work or not.
What do you think of this? Do you
think that a woman who has chill
dren should leave them to the care
of a maid? Do you think that a
woman who has household cares is
capable of holding a public job?
How do you account for the fact
that divorces are increasing? Is it
the lack of training during childhood
days, or of men and women failing
to understand the difference between
the sexes?
THE SOCIOLOGY CLASS.
Answer presume that when
you speak of married women being
employed in public work you mean
their engaging in any labor outside
of the home. OF course, logically, a
woman has the same constitutional
right to liberty and the pursuit of
job that man has, but whether
it is best for her own good and the
good Of the community for her to
exercise this privilege is determined
by circumstances. If a married
woman has a husband who is sick
and cannot work, or If he cannot get
work by which he can support a
family, or if she has dependent
members of her family, 1t is GER
tainly fine and courageous thing
for her to go out and earn the
money that makes them independ-
ent instead Of their becoming pub
lie charges.
Or if married woman has some
especial talent, it is better for her
to give it to the world than to bury
it in a teapot. We would surely
miss lot of good reading and music
and pictures, and what would the
movies do if when woman got
married she had to 60 dumb?
Also, 1t makes for the happi-
ness and peace of many family for
Nom, who is overhowing with energy
and executive ability, to turn it into
running shoppe or being an execu-
tive in a business Office instead of
bossing the husband and children
at home and telling the neighbors
what to do.
But, on the other hand, it cannot
be denied that there are only a
certain number of jobs open to
women, and that it is selfish thing
for wives with husbands able and
willing to support them to take
these opportunities of making an
honest living away from the girls
who need them.
I do not think that any woman
who has children should work out
side of the home unless she is driven
to it by dire necessity, because little
children need the care and the at

Travel Tips
To Retain
Beauty
Learn How to Look
Rested on Arrival
At Destination
BY PATRICIA LINDSAY.

Did you ever see a celebrated
beauty arrive at a train or plane
terminal after firing cross country
trip? Spic and span and breath
taking. she looks as II she just
stepped out of her private dressing
room instead of a confning COM
partment. How did she manage?
Well, stars and other beauties who
have learned that it pays to look
their loveliest always. have devel-
oped travel technique. Their
beauty aids go with them wherever
they go and if the space is confning
they pack smaller quantities, but no
necessary grooming aid is left be-
hind. When they shop at a cosmetic
counter they pounce on any likely
travel aid.
Eliminating travel traces is the
big problem and nothing is more
annoying than toting around damp
washcloth. So beauties carry those
new compressed washcloths which
expand in water to fluffy, hygienic
square which may be discarded after
1t has served its purpose. Ten are
packed in a miniature case which
takes up little space.
Water changes in degree of soft
ness according to climate and loca-
ton. Thus only super-fatted soap
will lather freely in all waters.
Liquid soaps on planes and trains,
and many soap bars for guests in
hotels are too alkaline for face
washing. Your own bar may be car
ried in little case, or you can cut
a bar in half and put that in a
smaller case.
Though modern conveniences for
travel are numerous it is still i'm
possible to take a shower bath in
plane or train. A sponge bath, yes,
but no shower. How refreshing it is
to have bottle of bath friction to
use after sponge bath. 1t is stimu-
lating and gives off nice fresh
odor. Perhaps this habit was in
spired by ladies of old who used to
travel with a tiny bottle of pine
essence, or toilet water, which they
dabbed on their foreheads and
wrists during long, tedious travel by
horse and coach.
If compartment odors "get you

cologne or floral perfume. That en-

The round roast, which is cut from
the leg, and has a good percentage
of meat to the bone; the heel of the
round, which is boneless, rump roast,
containing the hip bone and good
quality meat; the shoulder roast,
cut from shoulder toward the ribs;
the arm roast, which is also from
the shoulder, but contains the arm
bone, and the breast, which is very
inexpensive, somewhat bony, but
good when stuffed and cooked as a
pot roast. For fancy occasions you
will find the crown roast excellent,
containing 16 chops, ideal for din
ner party of six or eight. A veal rib
roast is usually cut into seven or
eight ribs, Or a rack, and may also
be utilized as chops.
You may think of veal chops as
Just "chops" see what we have:
Loin chops, which run about three
to pound, are large and meaty,
and are similar to steaks as in short
loin of beef; kidney chops, of good
quality, and containing portion of
the nutritious kidney; rib chops,
running about three to pound.
Then there are blade and arm
steaks cut from the shoulder, and
round steaks, or veal outlets, which
are cut from the leg, and are top
quality veal.
As to prices. you will find that
veal outlets from the round are
more costly than the sirloin veal
steaks and chops-and you get per-
fectly good meat on the latter. All
the shoulder cuts are less expensive
and not quite so good as those from
the ribs, legs or loins. You should
not overlook the possibility of buy
ing an inexpensive cut of veal,
having the butcher grind it and
shape 1t in around wooden skewers
for mock chicken legs" These and
pieces of veal threaded onto skewers
have delicious flavor when braised
in a casserole. Ground veal is
usually made of the heel of the
round or the boneless shoulder.
Veal bones, because of their
rich gelatine- making properties, are
especially valuable for soupmaking.
Meat from the shank is useful when
shredded into the soup stock to
make a jellied veal loaf that is
both delicate and nourishing.

DEAR KAY CALDWELL
AND ALDEN HARRISON:

When playing any game at a
private party where stakes are re-
quired is a girl expected to put up
her own money or should her escort
do it? j. S.
We'd say that the girl should put
up her own money. When a boy
takes a girl out he is expected to
meet all the entertainment ex-
penses. But we would consider
stakes in a gambling game at a
private party as personal ex-
pense rather than as part of the
entertainment provided by the boy
Of course, if the boy and girl
we're close friends and the amount
was not large, the question wouldn':
be worth an argument.

Don't Force
Shy Child
To Talk
Telling Strangers
His Name Often
Real Torment
BY ANGELO PATRI.

What a dear little boy ne Is. What
Is your name, sonny?"
Forsyth frowned. put his hands
behind his back and backed from the
gushing lady.
Nov don't be shy. darling. I'm
your Aunt Lilly. What Is your
name?"
Forsyth looked pleadingly at his
mother and at the door.
"Ten the lady your name. You
know your name. Speak up like a
real boy"
Further and further toward the
door the small boy backed, his
mouth tightly shut. In another in
stant he would be near enough to
turn and dart through that doorway
and escape his tormentor. But
mother would not have it. After
all, the child knew his name, his
telephone number, his fathers name
and address. He must learn to
speak up and tell his name when it
is asked Of him.
Stand still, Forsyth. Tell the
lady your name and then you can
go. I want you to tell the lady your
name. No nonsense. Speak right
up"
II don't know it," muttered the
child behind his lips.
"Of course you know it. Say 1t
or I'll punish you. Right now"
Il can't say it." cried the desperate
child, and raced for the door.
When this happens let the child
alone. He knows his name. But
don't you know that saying ones
name out in public is akin to un-
dressing there for most of us? A
shy child-and most children of 4
are shy before strangers, and no
| shame to them-cannot say his own
name out loud. especially when it is
gushing lady who asks it. In
stinctively the child knows she is
not really caring what his name is,
and anyhow he can't say it. Let
him alone. Say it for him, give him
pat on the shoulder to encourage
him, and let him escape.
We teach little children their
names, telephone numbers, fathers
name and address, as a safety
| measure. We write their names and
addresses inside their pockets, on
their coat collars, so they can be
identified when lost and perhaps
too overcome to tell these facts. We
hope that when they are in trouble
they will be able TO call on this in
formation, and they usually are.
A lost child is frightened. He
knows that policeman will help
him to get home if he tells hin, his
name and address. He is likely to
tell the officer. His distress drives
the shyness, which is personal feel
ing reused by the environment, out
of his mind. Fear is stronger than
shyness. Keep teaching the child
that the officer in the blue coat
with the brass buttons is his good
friend in time of need. When the
need comes he will usually ask for
help.
When a child enters school some
one is usually with him to tell his
name. The experienced teacher
does not ask him to tell his name
right out loud the first time she
meets him. She asks his guardian,
and then she addresses him by his
name, and after that the child has
no dread of telling her his full title.
This is an idiosyncrasy of childhood
and it should be respected.

Best quality veal is always milk led, and, since the

it's squarely up to her to put aside
her own selfish wishes and do the
thing that will make the party a
success. And if being her partner
would make this boy angry, then
certainly that procedure would not
contribute to the success of the
party.
If girl isn't willing TO adopt
this unselfish attitude, then she
shouldn't be hostess. We can un-
derstand how your friend might
be very anxious to have this boy
as her partner. But since he doesn't
feel that way about her, she should
realize that any attempt to force
such an arrangement will hurt,
rather than help, her. 1t will merely
make the boy resentful, scornful,
and even disguised.
Certainly your friend doesn't want
that to happen-entirely apart from
