Avoid Minor
Disasters
Good First.Aid Kit
Necessary Item
For Excursion
BY Patricia Lindsay

y
A small first-aid portable kit
should be standard equipment in
every home and toted along on out
ings. Mother can buy one at little
cost which contains bandages. cot
ton, a germicide, adhesive tape and
other aids.
Skins can be protected with a sun
lotion or a good quality witch hazel.
In fact, witch hazel is splendid
aH-roumd aid to beauty-it soothes
poison ivy rash, extracts heat from
sunburn, relieves stings from bites.
If junior cuts his foot while Wading,
witch hazel helps to stop the bleed
ing. If his head instead Of his mitt
stops a ball, witch hazel will ease
the inevitable swelling. And if the
family were too athletic during their
one days outing, the same witch
hazel may be used to rub the aches
away. Yes. a good quality witch
hazel serves in many ways, just as 1t
did when grandmother was a child.
Those of you who poison from ivy,
go hiking or picnlcking without first
Amounting your body with a lotion
which will prevent the poisoning
Do not wait until you have been
poisoned and then wall about your
misfortune-protect your body be-
fore setting out, and carry along a
small bottle of the preventative to
use every three hours.
And just because the sun feels so
good, it is not wise to throw yourself
down on sand or grass and bask in
its rays for hours. Unless your skin
has gradually been tanned during
the early part Of the season, spend
no longer than one-half hour in hot
sun, and no more than one hour in
the early morning or midafternoon
sun unless your body is protected by
clothing and lotion.

In the vegetable line, we find lima

and three kinds of squash, yellow
white and acorn. Caulifower is
much better than it has been, and
while asparagus is beginning to dis

may be used in any number of
ways to provide tempting dishes for

to get better and better with every

Dear Miss Dix: We are a huS-
| band and wife in our Cos. During
the last year we have lost our money
through a bad investment, and we
notice that with the going of our
money many people we thought were
our friends and who have enjoyed
our hospitality many times also
went. We are still what we were,
educated, refined and as well worth
knowing as we ever were, so We cam
not understand why we have sud-
denly become the forgotten man
and woman. I feel that the world
is growing so mercileSS and selfish
that every one now is only out for
their own gain. What do you think
about it? WONDERING.
Answer do not think that hu
man nature changes. People are
now just as they have been since the
beginning. There have always been
fair weather friends who loved you
dearly as long as you were prosper
Gus and gave fine parties, but who
forsook you when Lady Luck turned
her back on you and you ceased to
entertain And there have always
been the chop-for-a-chop friends,
who expected TO get as much as they
gave and who dropped you when you
could only offer them glass of
water in return for their cham
pagne. And there have always been
the horde OF sycophants and par
asites who lived by sponging on the
rich and who naturally disappeared
when there were no more pick
ings.
But. on the other hand, there have
always been friends who were true
and loyal and who chung the closer
TO you the more you needed them.
If one could be philosophic enough
about it, it would pay to have re-
verses if only to weed out the
wheat from the chaff among their
acquaintances.
1t Is the common cry of the un-
fortunate that when they lose their
money they lose their friends, too.
But this charge Is not wholly just.
My observation is that the people

Gone are the good old days when Kovacs, an authentic and delightful screwball, kept the galleries in stitches; when he would halt in the middle of 8 sizzling backhand to 700 hoo at some peaches-and- cream doll in the stands; when he would drive stuffed shirt officials to the point of mental befuddlement, which isn't very far drive in some cases.
 All of us were looking forward to Kovacs' appearance at Forest Hills in a few days when he sur- prised everybody by announcing that he and Miss Wolfenden, a pretty fair tennis player herself, had not been talking about scores when they yelled Hove" at each oth- CT around the tennis courts and that they had gone and got hitched.
 It was a new Kovacs who appear ed for the eastern grass courts championship at Rye. He didn't clown. He didn't yoo-hoo and it wasn't just because the Mrs. was sitting in the stands with her fin- gers crossed for luck, either. He's just a new man. He wants to win now. He plays tennis with the same intensity as 8 bank clerk who has been married 10 days runs for the 6:13 a. m. train so he can beat the boss into the office. maybe get a raise and buy the little woman fur coat
 Bit Tennis Ball
 Kovacs won the tournament, which was flu nfor him and Mrs. K, but not for the spectators. They wanted to see him do his stuff. Like the time he missed an easy shot and bit huge hunk out of a tennis ball. Or the time he started to grow a beard. Or like the time he was playing Joe Hunt at Forest Hills and putting on one of his better performances. It finally got on Hunts nerves and he sat down, re- fusing to continue until Kovacs quit the clowning. Kovacs laid his racquet on the turf and sat down beside it.
 'It's a sit-down strike" he in- formed the officials. "You know, just like those guys out in the auto mobile factories"
 He finally got up and lost the match to Hunt, but in the good old days KovacS didn't care so much about winning 50 long as he had some fun. His greatest perform ance was in some obscure tourna- ment against an obscure opponent He raced toward the grandstand, hit 8 shot across the net and kept on going. By the time his opponent got around to returning the ball, Koyacs' court was empty. Our hero was sitting up among the spectators beside doll, leading the applause for his opponents shot into the empty court
 Love, An Love!
 Tennis officials, coaches and friends tried for years to make Ko- vacs forget the clowning and settle down to business. They told him he could be another Budge, and that probably is true, for he has better shots than any of the anna teurs now playing. But he had the same philosophy as Walter Hagen had in golf: Have some fun and if you lose, what the hall, it's only a game"
 with Mrs. K. in the stands and the eastern grass courts title at stake, Kovacs smothered Wayne Sabin in straight sets. But if you wanted a laugh, you had to bring your own joke book and that's the way it's going to be at Forest Hills.
 Love, ah love!
