that he has used since he lost hi:

years ago, Jarvis said:
"When the war came there was
not very much that could do
TO help. I could not enlist myself,
and 1 had no sons who could
take my place.

year when the Red Cross asked
for donors to give blood for men

No Sanctuary

There was sadness in the contrast between the statement
made by President Roosevelt to the Jewish delegation which
visited him to urge action in connection with the Naz arOc
tiles and the decision of the House Ways And Means Com
mttee to forget about the powers bill which the Pres
ident had asked There two in which the Amer
lean people might help avert disaster to the other Jews in
the Nazi grip One by unmstakable language, specific
and detailed warning individual perpetrators of brutaities
against Jews that Jews too included within the civilian
population for whose hurt rebutOn would be taken after
the war; And the second way to give slightly outward
push ito the tightly barred doors which shut off all but rigid

anomalous position of the Jewish people Mr. Louis Lsky

RESOLUTION

Whereas, The Ladies Shell
tering Aid Society suffered
the loss by death of one of it's
outstanding members since
our last meeting, be it re-
solved:
Our hearts are saddened
by the loss of our dear Sis
ter, Mrs. Rose Nabin, yet we
are thankful to God for the
enrichment which we have
found in her many years of
love and labor that she de-
voted to our organization.
We should ever cherish
her memory being mindful
of her fine qualities which
marked her as a steadfaSt
friend, and an untiring and
willing worker to alleviate
the suffering of the poor and
the needy, a devoted wife
and mother and a loyal
member and officer of the
Ladies Aid Society.
That, her husband and
family shall ever have our
sincere sympathy and love,
and that we bow with them
in grief of a common loss.

liant He described him as ar
amazing old man with youthful
Zest but with conservative ideas
ideas that must be put aside
if we are to win the peace
Ademic then explains that he ha:
refused to join the committee fOl
a Jewish army because the means
that the committee is taking Il
obtain its objective show that tn
committee headed by Pierre Val
Passen is not aware that TIN
forces of reaction must be on tn
way out at the conclusion of TIN

use of the word mandate by thu
Icommittee He objects to thu
committees attempted negOtia
lions with the old guard in Eng
land He suggests that the
Jews and MI. Van Passen forget
all about a Jewish army and in
stead join forces'with him to form
the legion of freedom which will
consist of free soldiers of those
nations which Hitler has en-
shaved In this legion the Jews
shall have their own army fight
ing side by side with the other
nations This legion would
fight under the banner of the
United States
An excellent idea! but me-
thinks Mr.. Ademic is evading the
issue which he himself raised +. u.
What is to happen to Mr.. Church
i'll and his conservative followers
and the progressive peace which
we must all look forward to? {.
Winston Churchill is doing a
grand job of helping win this
war i. Certainly he will yield a
powerful influence at the peace
tabId /. If the prime minister of
Great Britain is conservative it is
better that we air our differences
with him now on the fate of
Jewish homeland and imperialism
rather than wait until the peace
is written And if the question
of a Jewish army helps focus at
tentiOn to the question of a nat
iOnaI home in Palestine then so
much the better

Picnic Manners

At Dinner
Bv Emily Post

~ Emily POSf
The frill on a lamb chop is solely
"for looks" intended to hide a bare
and ugly bone. This answers
man who asks:
Doesn't the frill on a lamb chop
mean that it is permissible to pick
the chop up after most of the
meat has been eaten off with the
knife and fork? My wife says no,
but I think that is why some far
sighted person invented the frills
in the first place. No one can deny
not even my wife-that the best
morsels are the bites nearest the
bones"
The best bites are nearest the
chickens bones too. but good table
manners do not permit picking
bones" at table. How much you
care about good manners which
prevent full enjoyment of flavors-
with lapses permitted only at pic
nics-is a question that must be
asked of you!
Dear Mrs. Post: When sent out
my wedding announcements some
weeks ago, did not address the
second envelopes because thought
this was only done on the second
envelopes of the wedding invitations.
Evidently I made a mistake. Also,
I am afraid I made a mistake in
leaving the tissue paper over the
engraving?
Answer-Both mistakes are un-
important. The second envelope
should have had Mr. and Mrs. Smith
or Miss Smith and nothing more,
and If the ink was hard and dry
then the tissue papers should be
taken out. On the other hand, in
damp climates or If the ink has
not had time to dry, papers are
necessarily left in-so this last was
perhaps not q mistake.

Tang
To Cooked Food
For Glazing
Old FQvOrife On Hot
Breads, Mullins
And Toast
Bv Edith M. Barber

There Is something about the old
fashioned flavor of honey which
gives q special tang to a number
Of cooked foods. OF course, the
commonest use for both comb and
strained honey is with hot breads
and if you are real epicure you
may be particular about the special
flavor due to the flowers from which
the bee sips the nectar. For the
honey which you use in cookery you
will more likely choose the standard
type-which is often a mixture of
various kinds.
A word might be said about the
method of measuring honey. A wet
or creased cup is practical as every
drop will come out readily. If you
are substituting honey for sugar
in one of your pet recipes, reduce
the liquid indicated in the recipe
by u cup to cup of honey.
The flavor of honey is particularly
good in yeast breads and mufins
and one of the best tea toasts
is made by spreading honey and
sprinkling cinnamon over bread
which has been toasted on one side
then putting the spread toast under
the broiler for just moment.
A whole or baked ham or a slice
Of ham may be glazed with honey
and a delicious mint sauce for
lamb may be made with its help.
A small amount may be put in each
half of an acorn squash before it
is baked and onions and carrots
are often glazed with honey.
For the benefit of the business
woman housekeeper there is no
better dessert than French toast
served with hot honey.

By Josephine Lowman


The following is a quotation from
the letter Of a reader:
Dear Mrs. LoWman: I have a
friend who is making herself i'll with
worry over her only son, who is in
the armed forces. She does not eat
correctly, seldom goes any place, and
sees only her closest friends. She
cries constantly. Not only will this
wreck her own health, but it is so
difficult for her son, who is very
devoted.
when at home on leave he sees
the condition of his mother, and her
letters are dreary affairs. Could you
possibly say something which will
give her new slant?"
My heart aches for this woman
and / feel humble when making
suggestions to a woman who has a
son in our armed forces, but can
not understand how she would be
willing to do this to her son.
Certainly she must not have looked
at it from his viewpoint. If she
really loves him she will think of
his happiness-not her own. What
great burdens this boy must bear
No doubt his mothers unhappiness
is far more difficult for him than all
of the dangers and hardships he will
encounter. Her every effort should
be for his sake. All her tears will
make no difference except that they
will send him away unhappy.
I suggest that she think of her
son, not herself; hold the thought
in her mind that many, many men
return from wars, and hug the be-
lief that her son will be one of them
I also think she should stay busy
get to work at something.

Self.Supporting Woman Demands

Rights in Marriage

The other day a young woman of
my acquaintance said to her fiance:
Bill, I'm going to marry you be-
cause love you. I am not going to
marry you for a meal ticket because
I make as much money as you do at
a profession that I like and take
pleasure in following. So I am
amply able to support myself. I am
not marrying you because am lone
some, or because I don't want to be
an old maid, or because I feel that
I lead narrow life.
"On the contrary, I think that
the woman bachelor with a good
trade and a good salary, who is
free to 60 and come as she pleases,
has a far easier time of 1t than any
wife and mother. So I am marry
ing you only because I love you and

life with you. Get that?

for the American Theater Wings

Miss Hayes described its opening on
Sunday, declaring that it took serv-

So definitely success was the OPEN

Washjngtonians, that the popular
actress said she didn't even mind

Also charming to see and hear was

very proud of being an Army wife,
now that husband Gene Ray
mond is captain. Miss Macdonald
also wore black, the sleeves of her
frock banded in bright green velvet,
with an elaborate gold and green
necklace adding interest to the cos
tune. Like Miss Hayes, the viva
clous singer has used every possible
opportunity to collect money for
worthy causes. At the end of her
concerts, for example, instead of
giving encores, she sells" them, the
money going to Army Emergency
Relief-some $4,000 worth so far!
Miss Macdonald declares that the
only request she was unable to fill
was for "Chattanooga oo-Choo'-

did not show before marriage. It
may even be that you will grow tired
