Having gotten the stocking prob

right into talking about a cream
for the softening and smoothing of
your skin. This is fragrant, fine
textured mixture that acts as a
powder base and also helps to keep
your complexion velvety and smooth
looking Simply spread it evenly
on hands, arms, face or neck and
discover that it vanishes in a hurry
and leaves no annoying greasiness

tell us that If the product is used

Some time ago Miss Ruth Hawk,
representative of a well-known firm,
made a personal appearance ] in
Washington. Her firm, which de-
votes its time and energy to making
nail polishes, modestly announces
that Miss Hawk has "the most
beautiful hands in the world"
and we're inclined to agree with
them. At any rate, Miss Hawk is
here again this week in local store,
showing those pretty paws and tell
ing women how to initiate them.
If you drop by to have a chat
with her, take a look at the new
colors which are causing so much
attention. There Is a bright blue,
a plum and a vivid green among
others-the green being the favor

nails bright red. we can do EN- in
bright green just as well. and it
does look wonderful with light
clothes and matching green acces-
sories. You can even take a tip

their sons, while wives overvalue
their influence over their husbands.
No mother deliberately sets out to
wreck her little boys life by spoil
ing him. When she never teaches
him to control his appetites, she
doesn't think that she is bringing
up potential drunkard or roue.
When she thinks it is a mere
childish prank for him to break the
neighbors windows or throw mud
on fine car, she doesn't think that
she Is rearing one of the hoodlums
that fill our jails. When she never
makes him do any work or do any,
thing that he doesn't want to do,
she does not realize that she is
turning out one of the men who
never can make a living but who
drift from job to job until finally
they end In q hobo camp.
No, she thinks that having made
her son the kind Of a man she
doesn't want him to be, when he is
grown he will turn into the kind OF
man she wishes him to be. But it
never happens. Her work stands.
And II mothers are victims of
their wishful thinking about the un-
importance of a mothers influence,
girls are even more the victims of
their optimistic belief in a wife's
influence, as is witnessed by the
millions of them who marry drunk
ards in the belief that marriage Is
a cure for alcoholism; who marry
philanderers to reform them, and
good for nothing, ne'er- wells,
confident that they can make them
get up from the do-nothing stool
and hustle.
So of the two women behind
e"ery mans door the mother is the
more important, and wise is the
babe who picks out for a mother a
woman who will not only open the
door Of opportunity to him but
shove him through it.

Child Should
Learn to Be
Helpful
Even the Youngest
Will Cooperate
If Permitted
By Leffice Lee Street,

Bv Lefffce Lee Sffeen
Why is it that one child will hap
PLY accept and assume his small
share of household chores while an
other, the same age, will be reluc-
tant and surly If asked to perform
the hghtest task, and has to be
urged and prodded before he can
even remember to hang up his
clothes?
Allowing for variations in tenn
permanent, it may safely be said that
the youngster who Is a willing little
helper now cannot remember the
day when duties were not expected
Of him. His mother was far sighted; !;
she realized that at an early age she
should start to guide her child into
the habit of self-helpfulness and
serving others, too.
Even the young child may be a
help to his mother, and at most
children dote on initiating the work
of adults, the child will be agree
ably cooperative If his mother is
patient with his clumsy efforts. 1t
is only by allowing a child to try
to help himself and others that he
can learn.
The first step in training a child
to be helpful is to teach him to take
care of himself; to brush his hair,
and his teeth, to hang up his
clothes, tie his shoe laces, tidy his
toys after play and so on. Little
progress will be made unless the
mother is persistent and pleasant
in reminding her child over and
over about these duties.
Gradually, as he grows older, he
can be given specific household
tasks and the performance of these,
too, will require patience, super
vision and constant reminding. But
the mother who sticks to her theory
will be richly rewarded when her
little son or daughter grows into an
older child who is self-reliant and
willing, and who not only serves
himself but others, also.
The stupid mother who makes
every small chore seem as drudgery,
who sharply commands her child
to do so and SO, who stoops to
threats such as, IF you don't tidy
your room you can't go out and
play" or who makes a disagreeable
scene accompanied by scolding or
punishment every time the child S
memory or performance falls short
of perfection, or who impatiently
refuses her youngsters awkward
little fingers the time they need to
finish a simple task, will find that
her child resists and rebels against
her every wish.
2ut the skillful mother who makes
work time gay time, who pictures
for her little helper the fun he will
have playing after his work is fin
ished, and who does not expect per-
lection, or assign tasks that are too
difficult, will have a child with a
happy, cooperative spirit-a child
who not only expects and does not
mind work, but who really enjoys it,
because mother Is such good COM
pany.
AS I said, children often play at
doing grownup work. How much
more fun 1t is actually to be allowed
to do this work, and If the child is
made to feel that he is a real help
he will swell with pride and will
realize that he is needed, and i'm
pOrtant to his family.

Salmon Good
Ouick>Meal
Product
Serve With Sauce
Which Includes
Oil From Fish
By Edith NJ. Barber

The buSinesswoman housekeeper,
if her family likes fish, has always
found canned products, such as
salmon, tuna fish, shrimps and crab
meat, a great asset to the quick
meal. All of these were reasonable
in price.
Today we find the Japanese crab
meat naturally off the market and
only small supply of American
crabmeat left. Tuna fish has risen
more than salmon, the less fancy
varieties Of which still give good
value for price and cost no more
than does fresh fish in solid fillets.
There are so many things which
can be done with salmon to make
an appetizing supper dish. One Of
my favorites is salmon loaf, with a
sauce made from the oil drained
from the fish itself. Several read
ers have asked me to reprint this
recipe. I also Ike the combina-
ton of buttered soft bread crumbs
with the faxed fish, especially when
1t Is well seasoned with lemon juice
and dash of Worcestershire.
Creamed salmon served on toast
or hot biscuits is particularly good
when quick Hollandaise. instead of
the usual cream sauce, is combined
with the fish. Shrimps are perhaps
even better than salmon with this
sauce and have a most attractive
appearance when served with a
green vegetable, such as peas.
Mushrooms also combine we'll
with salmon. The sliced stems left
over from those creamed mushrooms
which you had for another meal
will give touch Of flavor to any
OF the dishes suggested above.
SALMON LOAF.
2 cups q pound canned salmon.
2 cups soft bread crumbs.
u cup rich milk.
l egg, well beaten.
2 tablespoons melted butter.
l teaspoon salt.
4 teaspoon pepper.
2 tablespoons minced parsley.
Drain salmon and reserve LIQUOR.
Remove bones and skin from SAL
mon and fake. Combine fish,
crumbs, milk, well-beaten egg, but
ter, salt, pepper and parsley. Mix
we'll and form into loaf. Bake in
moderately hot oven 400 degrees
F. about 20 to Is minutes until
light brown. Place on hot platter,
garnish with parsley and serve with
the following sauce. Yield, six serv-
ings.
SPECIAL SAUCE FOR SALMON
LOAF.
| 2 tablespoons butter.
2 tablespoons flour.
4 tablespoon salt.
4 cup salmon liquor.
q cup milk.
2 tablespoons catsup.
Melt butter, stir in -four and salt
and when well blended stir in SAL
mon liquor and milk slowly, STIR
ring constantly over a low heat
until mixture thickens and boils.
Stir in catsup, heat and serve with

SHRIMPS WITH GOLDEN SAUCE.
pound cooked or canned shrimps.
tablespoons butter.
2 tablespoons flour.
u teaspoon salt.
1s teaspoon pepper.
2 cups milk.
2 egg yolks, slightly beaten.
tablespoons lemon juice.
Clean shrimps. Melt four table
spoons of the butter and stir in

ture thickens slightly and boils.

egg yolks. Pour egg mixture into

and cook over hot water until sauce
Is smooth and thick. A little nut
meg may be added for seasoning
If desired. Yield, six servings.

tiers, the other twin bed is converted
into a practical crib by using the
high head boards of both beds for
its head and foot, and by the addi-
ton of side rails which have been
made to order, or were ordered when
the bed was purchased. The low
footboards from both beds are
placed on the head and foot of the
nurses bed. Later, with the advent
Of another baby, the basket is in
operation for six months again,
then the small one has the crib
and the older child the bed. After
six years, when the crib Is out
grown, the pieces are switched again
and the regular head and footboard
placed on each bed, the side pieces
are removed and perfectly matched
twin beds are the result for the next
10 years.
Though there Is q certain amount
Of baby equipment, such as scales,
bathinette and basket that must be
stored or given away, the funda-
mental furnishings OF the room
will remain in use through the years.
A tiny, himsy chest Of drawers may
be very sweet for the extra bootees,
but capacious one with deep COM
partments will 60 through the years
much better and may be just as
dainty and "babyish" in a delicate
color scheme with hand-painted
decorations. Later the decorations
may be removed and bright re-
paint job done which will turn the
whole set into a charming accom-
paniment to the doings of the pig
tail SET" Checked gingham cur
tains and bright wall decorations
will change the effect entirely. Still
later it can be rubbed down to the
natural wood and antiqued in white
to make delightful background for
the "teen-ager" The chest might
grow up" with the addition of a
mirror above 1t, and a soft boudoir
chair and draped dressing table
would be helpful additions for girls,
while a desk and work table will
please boys.
Start the room of with washable
walls, which are light, but not too
white. Draperies of tubbable ma
terial on traverse rods, so that they
are easily adjustable for more or
less light, provide solution to the
window problem. Linoleum is the
ideal surface for the floor as it is
SO easily cleaned, but 1t is a good
plan to use washable rugs over this
for the play area, as they have a
warmer surface. A screen serves
many purposes. 1t keeps a draught
from the crib and from the bath
inette during the dressing period
and may also be adjusted to keep
strong light from sleeping child.
Chairs should have q painted sur
face that may be easily washed,
although one comfortable chair with
a slip cover that is changed and
laundered regularly will be a COM
Portable addition for the hours when
"grownups" are present. A sturdy
table with small chairs serves as a
play table for youngsters and later
may be used as a tea table for the
older children.
Planning this variety of furni-
ture makes each item of daily value
through the years and also obviates
the necessity Of keeping furniture
in storage. This type is sturdy and
fine in design SO that it does not
become outmoded but merely
changes its surface to perform its
functions and stay In fashion.
