Dear Mrs. Post: When young
girls parents are able to give only
comparatively small So-called deb
utante party for their daughter-let's S
say it would be an afternoon tea for
about a hundred-are they supposed
to invite their own personal friends
and the younger friends OF their
daughter. or is the idea to invite
people whom they know less we'll
and whom their daughter quite likely
does not know at all? In other
words. since the whole idea OF a
coming -out party (as understand
it, is to introduce the girl to people
who may not even know she exists.
then wouldn't it be 4 little ridiculous
/ to present her" to the family's best
friends?
/ Answer: Customs have changed
verv much since the first World
War. Before that the debutante s
mother invited her own general
visiting list to the tea, or possibly
to the ball at which her daughter
was presented. But large and formal
entertaining of acquaintances rather
than friends has become less popular
(perhaps less pOSsiblel each year SO
that now a debutapte's coming OUT
! Is in most cases merely party that
| pleaSes her. And that certainly
means 4 party to which those she
likes best are invited OF course, the
big dancing tea or the general bal
are still correct when her parents
have the means as we'll as inclination
to give her either Of these parties.
Dear Mrs. Post: We're having an
argument about soup! We'd like to
know whether soup is considered an
edible or 4 drinkable?
Answer: Although 1t Is true that
one drinks bouillon from a cup, most
soups are eaten with . spoon. This

But his family are so sorry for
him that they drive him TO and

weather, shield him from life, so
that he is growing shy and retir-
ing and sad.
Lameness is a handicap, but many
good and able men have overcome
it. Why not this boy? Why not
let him get to school on his own
feet? The other children soon forget
the lameness. They measure each
other by what each can do. Run,
jump, whistle. swim. catch and
pitch, finish in arithmetic, any
thing to excel. is what captures
their interest and affection.
They will call him Limp? Maybe.
One thing is certain. When the
children give one of their group a
nickname, he is accepted and his
place is secure. The name may
be anything except classic, but it
is borne proudly by his owner.
Nothing so warns the heart of a
boy as to hear himself called by the
name known only to the brother
hood.
The help we can give child is
usually spiritual help. We can
stand ready to comfort and en-
courage: we can ease the load; We
can applaud when it is we'll car
ried, we'll delivered. We can
strengthen his spirit by helping
him TO see that life is a mixture
of all living forces. They meet
and change, give and take, but
rarely in child's life do they
take more than they give.
A wholesome attitude that in
dicates a willingness and an abil-
ity to take what comes is about
the best endowment a youngster
can hope to have. Don't take over
a child's life. Share it.
