Even then the Germans were
massing their men and machines
for the blitzkreig, and when IL

on French military airports

Hundreds of these precious air
planes were destroyed within

Impressive may be slightly over

logical one to use in describing yes

hundred well-groomed women who
were there to see the brilliant dis

port to the British-American Am
bulance Corps, for whose benefit the
showing was presented.
Nor were they disappointed in
the fashions offered for their ap-
proval. A collection of dresses, suits
and coats by Molyneaux was fea-
tured first, followed by group of
styles from the most famous of our
American designers. The clothes
were shown to best advantage, too,
entering the ballroom by means of
a circular stairway and parading up
a long runway for close inspection.

Girl Mother
Often Lacks
Responsibility of
Caring for Baby
Frightening
By Leftice Lee Street,

Many young mother at first feels
swamped with the tremendous re-
sponsibility that has suddenly been
placed in her inexperienced arms;
the management and care of
precious human life all the more
wonderful because it belongs to her.
She may feel a tremendous uncer-
tainty as to her ability to cope with
so serious task. 1t is quite natural
for her to feel this way. She should
be given time to adjust herself and
plenty of encouragement to help her
gain confidence. II she has the
right stuff in her, she will make a
real effort to behave logically, as a
woman, and not as helpless child
Girl mothers who lack faith in
their ability to take care of their
babies, or 10 run their households,
are very apt to allows others, such
as their mothers or their mothers
in-laW, to rule them and TO even
order their lives in a manner that
is distasteful to them. Or they may
swing TO the other extreme and
assume belligerent attitude and
haughtily discard any offer of help
or council. When the girl mother
is underassertiVe and overcompliant,
she is just blindly refusing 10 grow
up and weakly travelling the easy
road. When she takes the latter
track, she is only revealing her lack
of confidence in herself and is using
her baby as proof that she is grown
up and able TO manage alone, thank
you very much
Actually, none of US like or wish
to manage alone. It is very pitiful
when a young mother must raise
her child or children without the
devoted interest of husband. or at
| least of one or more members of her
| family.
The mother-in-laW is unfortunate.
| ly the one who most frequently
upsets the immature mother who is
trying so hard 10 discover the way
that she, as a woman, may best
manage her life. Grandmothers
/ who cause trouble are the ones who
constantly offer unasked-for adi
| vice; who pooh-poOh new theories
in child care; who condescendingly
make their success in raising a
healthy family strongly felt; who
are forever dropping in and gloomily
remarking that such and such
thing is bad for the baby
The best attitude for the mother
to assume toward such a pesky
presence is one of patience and good
| humor. She should let these irri-
tating remarks slip off of her mind
without making an impression. She
may help the situation a great deal
if she occasionally asks for advice,
and listens to it patiently, even if
she does not follow it. She may
further avoid friction if she some
times asks the mother-in-law to
perform real task for the baby, and
thus the older woman will be pla-
Gated and complimented and made
to feel that her age and experience
are respected.
When the mother law is a kind,
understanding, sensible, woman, she
may contribute a great deal to the
happiness and care of her grand
| children, and it is selfish of the
young mother if she jealousy tries
to deny the older woman and her
baby this companionship that can
be full of both love and wisdom.

Deviled Sandwiches

Occasionally we have all enjoyed
sandwiches which practically defled
our efforts to name their contents.
That may be the sort you're look
ing for. to serve when the next
group of guests surrounds your buf-
fet table. It's easy when you have
the recipe, but seems complicated
when you merely taste their special
goodness. 'Deviled sandwiches" in

fruit from the pits of ineXpensively
sized ripe olives in any sized wedges
that you personally prefer.

It's smart to have a mOnogrammed
bath set. Lovely ones are made of
soft tufted material and there is a
selection of 18 colors from which to
choose. Have the monograms worked
in a contrasting color for added
dash.
California are making a hit this
season. They are designed from
native weeds and gourds, gaily
painted to add color to your table
and may be used on many occasions
TO save expense. -.
Don't rest your broom against
the corner wall, for it will, as you
no doubt know, become crooked and
unsightly. Purchase an inexpensive
hard rubber cap equipped with a
loop on the top which will enable
you to hang the broom neatly over
a hook. The caps fit snugly and also
can be attached to busters and
m0pS. -.
Jars of salad vinegar now come
equipped with a tube spray. This is
a nice feature, for the vinegar can
be spread evenly over the dish,
eliminating the danger OF over
seasoning. -.
Unusually shaped jars made of
h0bnail glass containing game sauce,
Seafood sauce, French dressing and
mint sauce are placed in a wire
rack for easy handling. -.
A square crystal clock, matching
book-ends and a hurricane type
lamp are excellent accessories for
the desk in a living room or hall. {.
Give the air-minded young man
a tie clip made in the form of an
airplane propeller. 1t is very at
tractive, comparatively inexpensive
and distributed by a well-known
company. ...
Add to your desk accessories a
stamp box and letter clip made of
silver plated metal. These conven-
lent articles are smartly decorated
with the United States seal. :.
Give the baby his own orange
squeezer and cup decorated with
animal decalcomanias. -.
A must on your kitchen equip
ment list is an egg opener which is
a scissorlike article with teeth to
| perforate the eggs center. 1t is
easy to use; simply press the handles
together and your egg divides in
half. ..
Pure baby bath soap in the form
of a turtle comes in boxes of three,
attractively packaged and excellent
as 8 shower gift. -.

Manners
of the
Moment

When mother is struggling with
her own child's behavior it is very
difficult for her to appreciate her
friends remarks about how beauti-
fully behaved other children are.
I know one girl who invariably
starts telling about her adorable
and polite little nieces in Idaho
when she is visiting New York
friend who has a recalcitrant child.
She picks the moment when her
New York friends child is at his
worst, and when the mother is
doing her best to smooth over q
difficult moment in child rearing,
to bring up those darned nieces.
Needless to say, the New York
mother gets sore
The mother probably wouldn't
mind in the least hearing about the
Idaho dolls during the times when
her baby is behaving like a little
gentleman. In fact she'd probably
rather enjoy exchanging gossip
about the actions of children. But
when her baby is yelling his head
off, she says she does wish people
would keep quiet about babies who
don't ever seem to yell In public.

Dear Miss NOVEL;: Do you know
of any method of eliminating poison
ivy without using weed killer that
will ruin everything else? 1t is
twined all over my trees and back
fence. H. T. r.
Answer-Using a blowtorCh to
burn off the heavy roots just
where they come through the
ground to run up the tree trunks is
one way. 1t needs as little handling
as possible and by spring the tops
will all have died off. Blowtorching
all the new shoots as they appear
will clear it out in a season. Better
use a respirator as the poison very
often is carried in the smoke.

hall. Generally speaking, it is wise
to do the two alike, with the wood
work in the same color a shade or
two lighter. Then use wall paper
above the chair rail in the dining
room. The dado, where the chill
drens hands may rest, is of paint,
but the paper gives wall decoration
in a room that seldom has wall
decoration other than mirrors or
library on the first floor a paper
combined with paneling or paint
is nice here also. The children's S
rooms and the bathrooms upstairs
may be painted and the guestroom
and your own papered, if you please.
Generally speaking, don't buy wall
paper just as a wall covering. Paint
is better if that is what you want.
Buy wall paper for its exquisite
colors, fine design and decorative
quality. Let this make the room
for you. Invest enough to get the
design and quality that you want,
or else use a painted wall.
Dear Miss NOVEL;: I have been

always planned to refurnish my
whole house in the same period.
have been watching furniture for
the last two years and I am Won-
derlng what would be the best to
buy. 1 first thought I wanted 18th
century things, but I am more
and more interested in modern fur
niture. What do you think will
be the future of it? Do you think
the designs are simple enough now
so that they will not go out OF
style? Should I buy now or wait
a few more years? MRS. E.S.
Answer agree that modern" is
becoming more and more interest

the slowing up of the presentation
OF new designs has held it back
this year, and it is especially adapted
TO the busy, active life that goes
with our times. On the other hand
II your pleasure is going TO be in

go wrong in selecting the fine de-
signs of the 18th century. They

these in the better quality than the
modern pieces. If you wait until
after the war, when production is
back to normal and new designs are
offered, you will find that all pro-

of speed. There is no shortage OF

Answer-First, knock out all tht
damaged wooden handles and ther

This will loosen all the rust anc

Get some earrings? You'll need

Try new makeup as a change

Realize the value of dickeys to

-Splurge on set of furs? Then
drape them casually over your arm,
wrapping them around twice. or
making an entrance trailing them

Buy an embroidered or sequin
