First Love-
Fleeting
At Best
Wise Parents Wait
For Youngsters
To Recover
By 4 ngeIo Pafri

Boys and girls of the teen age
fall in love: and let no adult forget
that this is serious. deep-seated
condition that affects the physical
and mental health, and of course
the behavior. of the young people.
1t is rot to be laughed off. 1t
cannot be. 1t is not to be exag-
gerated either, but then. again, it
cannot be, for 1t Is exaggerated
when 1t is born.
This emotion created between two
young people has a way of rising to
a height, then shifting to another
object. There are some cases on
record where first love stayed on as
the last, but not many. 1t is the
nature Of young love to shift. This
is why parents are wary of its hold
on their children.
1T won't last" they warn the
young ones. and the young ones rise
In wrath at the suggestion of dis
loyalty, f1ckleness and fun.
This is the most serious thing
IN my life. will never change" But
father and mother know that soon.
perhaps by tomorrow, life and its
changing moods will have wrought
new pattern. With what patience
and forbearance they can muster,
they wait and hope. If only the
children could understand
They cannot and they do not. We
can only warn, advise, slip in word
here. plan there, and wait for
nature to present way out. A COL
lege youth of 20 falls in love with
a woman five years his senior and
he is all for leaving college and
marrying the lady who Is willing he
do so. He has no money and no Job,
but he, being for the time beyond
reason. believes he can overcome
these little difficulties.
All that his people can do is to
tell the lady there is no money and
no hope of help from them, and
insist that the boy wait. If they can
get him to do that then things will
straighten out by themselves.
Young college girls fall in love
with older men, sometimes with idle
hangers-on, sometimes with boys
their own age, and they, too, are
certain that this is their fate, their
heaven-bestowed partner.
All that the parents can do is ask
for time, wait and hope. 1t Is a
mistake to rail about the short
coming Of the adored one. That only
increases the emotional forces al
ready inf1amed. Better take 1t
calmly as casually as possible, be-
cause that attitude is likely to cool
down the emotions, clear the brain
q bit and allow clear thinking.
Clear thinking is not possible for
boys and girls in this condition. 1t
is essential then that their parents
do some. Instead Of flying into a
rage, crying and scolding by turns,
take hold, wait until control is es-
tablished in the parental mind; say
little; take for granted that there |
Is no hurry about this and wait for
opportunities to study the situation.
No young person escapes this
crisis. No parents ever escape it
either. Prepare for 1t and try to
take it calmly and there is better |
chance of coming through without |
too much damage.

BoiledDinner
A FavOrite
In Winter
Cook COrned Beef
And Vegetables
Separately
By Edith NJ. Barber

Nobody knows why the adjective
New England" was attached long
ago to a boiled dinner. At q time
when cured meat and winter vege-
tables were the foundations Of ths
winter diet all through the North,
boiled dinners were naturally COM
mon everywhere. In pioneering days
there were not many pots in most
kitchens and this Is probably one
Of the reasons why the vegetables
and meat were cooked together.
Today we still like boiled dinner,
but according to modern taste We
cook our corned beef and each veg
etable separately. A boiled dinner Of
this sort may be attractive to the
eye when the boiled meat Is ar
ranged In the center Of large plat
ter and surrounded with creamy
cooked cabbage, boiled whole or
diced carrots, buttered onions. boiled
potatoes and other vegetables, such
as boiled beets or mashed turnips.
You probably will not choose more
than three If you cook the vegetables
separately unless you use the oven
to bake the onions and carrots and
If you decide to serve baked rather
than boiled potatoes with this meal.
Two kinds of corned beef are to
be found in most markets. That
which is bright in color and has a
more distinctive flavor will prob
ably need to be soaked in cold water
before cooking. The dark corned
beef will not need soaking unless it
Is unusually salty. A bunch of soup
greens or a few slices of onion, car
rots and celery leaves may be cooked
with the beef.
BOILED CORNED BEEF.

rump or plate. Wash meat thor
oughly under running water to re-
move brine. Place in large kettle
and cover with cold water. Add soup
green's and peppercorns, bring to
boiling, cover, and simmer over low
heat about two and a half to three
hours, until tender. Remove from
water, drain, and serve on hot plat
ter with boiled vegetables which
have been cooked separately. Serve
with horseradish, mixed mustard or
sour sauce. Yield: Six servings,
with leftovers for serving cold or for
hash the next day.

touch with the operation of numer-
GUS guerrilla bands on the Philip

which the Japanese supposedly had

Backed by the huge guns Of Cor

not only has stopped every japanese
attempt to advance against him for
weeks, but has even regained small
sections Of the territory previously

by the War Department several days

campaign in Malaga which resulted
in the capture of Singapore. Since

queror of Malaga had taken over the

there have been frequent predictions
that it heralded an all-out drive to
complete the Japanese occupation
