April's changeable weather cut
down the number Of linksmen and

But the reason is plain. The
children leave home to gain little
freedom which they know they will
never have as long as they are
under their parents roof, for Papa
and Mamma never find out that
their children have grown up and
are intelligent men and women
capable of shaping their own lives.
To their fathers and mothers
they are still toddling infants in
romperS who have to be held by
the hand and told to eat their
spinach and that they must go bye
bye at 7 o'clock. John and Sam
know that in their fathers Offices
they would be only glorifled errand
boys, probably without a definite
salary, certainly without any au-
thority, and no chance to show what
Is in them. And Mary knows that as
long as she is at home Mother will
feel that she has a perfect right
to read her letters and listen in on
her telephone calls and put her
through QUESTIONABLE about every
thing she has said and done and
thought for the previous "a hours.
And because Mothers tyranny is
prompted by love doesn't make it
easier to endure.
But for all of its faults, family
life has its redeeming virtues. Home
is the one spot in all the world to
which our thoughts turn back in our
wanderings. 1t is the Shangri-La
of our dreams, and We even come to
love those who have told us home

but they bllnk the real answer,
which is space. 1t isn't that hu-
man nature is any different from
what it has always been. 1t is that
rooms are now 6X8 instead of being
l8xlS as they were in our grandpar-
ents' time. We live in little cublcles
in a wall into which We are packed
so tightly that we almost have to
use hydraulic pressure to get in, and
flesh and blood simply can't stand 1t.
1t gets on our nerves and makes us
cross and cranky and resentful OF
those with whom We are forced to
live in too close contact. We could
easier forgive them for some great
wrong they committed against us
than for having used our cold cream
or swiping our razor blades. It's
practically impossible to love any
body who is always under foot; and
it's because we have no privacy, no
solitude, no place in which to go to
work off our grouches, that so many
husbands and wives quarrel and
part. And it's because we send our
children out on the streets in order
to get rid of their noise that we
have to pay them out of their
scrapes when they grow up into
hoodlums.
The next thing that is the matter
with family life is that it ignores
the amenities of civilization. 1t is
the only place in the world where
people feel they don't have to be
even commonly polite or considerate
of the feelings of others. It's sig
nificant that our choicest insults
are labeled "home truths" No

Modern Tested Recipes Prevent
Traditional Failure and Tears

In these times of stepped-up out
side activities we as homemakers
must learn the art of making a
house home.
Healthy families help to build a
strong nation, so it's important that
we use our energies to this end. The
correct purchasing, preservation and
preparation of food isn't as hard as
it may appear to some. We do need,
however, to acquire a few funda-
mental rules and procedures of good
nutrition. With milk, eggs, meat,
cheese, fruit, vegetables, enriched
white bread and butter as our basic
foods, the housewife needs only to
use imagination in providing the ex-
tras which will give much needed
variety to family meals. For exam
pie is there any more stimulating ad-
dition to a meal than hot biscuits,
served golden brown and piping hot?
They are something of which any
cook can be proud. Nor need they
always be the same plain form of

the possible variations on this popu-
lar theme. Here are a few of them
