Hello, Folks:

The event of the week was the
mellow Credjafawn's party given
out at the Columbia Chalet. The
music was too fine and the crowd
was in a mighty gay and festive
mood. Believe it or not, jibing, as
at all parties, was one of the favor
ite pastimes of the evening. (Of
course, everyone seemed to be jib-
ing the person they were supposed
to be jibing. HaD 1 did notice a
few would-be meandering lads and
lassies but they were just having
a little fun on the sly. That
very charming couple, BURIE and
LOUISE CARMICHAEL were
round and about greeting and in
Producing friends. Among them
were CHARLEY BURLEY and his
very attractive wife. Saw that
cute couple, the GENE MOORES,
looking as devoted as ever. q.
BOB PIERRE and his wife-to-be,
RUTH MILLER, really had that
orange blossomy" look. (You
know they'll become Mr.. and Mrs.
on June 29th.) Did you see that
jealous st. Paul lass who almost
chewed her nails off when she saw
her lovelight dancing with his last
years girl? . And wasn't that
sedate St. Paul gent embarrassed
when he suddenly got a hiccough-
ing spell while he was dancing
with the society lady" about
town? (He said he didn't know the
cause but me-thinks the "bar" had
a little something to do with it,
E. NINA and ED ASTAIRE (no,
mean SALTERS) were really
showing the folks some of their
fine dancing steps. They're really
a perfect dancing pair.) No
ticed the following popular fellows
about town having a too fine time !:
JACK MILLS, LOUIS COMMO-
DORE, Farrell PHILLIPS, ROB-
ERT JONES, WALTER COINS
and "Sir" NORMAN Light. .
Did you notice all the love-sick
gazes being sent round while the
orchestra was playing 81 Love You
Truly? The following couples
were very much in evidence: The
TELA BURTS, BERT DAVID
SONS, BILL HELMS, JOHN
LAWRENCES, and the SAM HAIR
RIS. Some of the out-of-town
guests houncing about were: DIR.
and MRS. ROBERT W. HATCH
and Mr.. and MRS. BUTLER of
Indianapolis; MILDRED RICE,
formerly of Minneapolis and now
of Milwaukee, Wis. JIMMY

With Stewardship" as tn e
theme a day of Spiritual inspira-
ton was enjoyed by a very repre-
sentative cross section of Church
and Community life in our city,
June IL. The discussions in the
morning led by Mrs. Louise Holly;
Stewardship of Prayer, Mrs. Julia
Lewis; Stewardship of Money, Mrs.
Cudellus Jackson; Stewardship of
Time, Mrs. Junita Nelson; Stew
ardship of Home was very effec-
lively closed by Miss l. Myrtle
Garden, who spoke on "The Stew
ardship of the Community. Among
the many outstanding G points
brought out by Miss Garden was
the fact that "The work of Com
munity House, Church or other So
cial agencies for character build
ing will never attain its goal until
the Stewardship of the home ar
rives at it's peak and ideals are
mutual between home and said
agencies.
The devotions at the dinner ses-
sion were led by Miss Katherine
Roster, at one time a worker with
the Union Gospel Mission, now
working with the Gideonites. Her
subject, Starting the Home Right"
was very forcefully given through
Visual Aid.
This day of Service was closed
by Rev. Dorothy L. Sutton, pastor
of the Commonwealth Community
Church of Chicago, Ill. Her sub
ject, "She Hath Done Her Best" I"
The duties and life of the mother
in relation to her Stewardship were
very vividly brought out.
The Stewardship Day Committee
wish to express their appreciation
to all who so freely gave of their
time to make this day the success
that it was, spiritually and finan-
cially. Especially do we wish to
thank Mrs. Lucy Green, Stew
ardess of st. James A. M. E.
Church, who supplied US with the
samples of dentifrice which were
given out at the noon meeting.
Mrs. Eva Taylor and Mrs. Flor
ence Hibbs were co-chairmen.

dren except my husband. Will she
always live with us? Home isn't
very happy, as you may guess.
When take my trip, should l
stay?
Ans: 1t is necessary that you
maintain reserve in dealing with
your mOther-n-law. Any dislike
that you may have for her would
have a tendency to make your hus-
band resentful and hateful towards
you. Take the trip you have
planned but return at the time you
specify to your husband. When you
return, it would be a very apprO-
pirate time to encourage your
mOther-in-law to visit her children.
If you can get her away, she may
find that she enjoys visiting more
than she thinks she does.
R. H: Should I write my uncle
and ask him to send for me?
want him to buy me a bicycle or
send me the money.
Ans: Visit him a few weeks if
you like but he can't play
Santa Claus to you. If you want
extra money, why don't you earn
it? Get in touch with the paper
and see if you can't work up q
paper route. Begin now to earn the
money you want don't depend
on someone handing it out to you.
M. F. j.: I am a deaf-mute. I'm
very lonely. I don't drink, smoke
a little bit. I am very nice looking,
wear nice tailor made clothes.
like shows, dances and lots of fun.
Now wish to meet some nice girl
like my own case. I also work hard
all the time.
Ans: The best way for you to
meet a girl of your type would be
to visit the School for Deaf that
you attended. Also arrange to go
to church for the Deaf. In your
city there no doubt is a church of
this kind at least many of the
larger cities have them. You are
really put at a disadvantage when
you go out with girls who cannot
talk with you therefore, center
your thoughts on girls that under.
stand your sign language. 1 fee
sure that in due time you will meet
the type girl you want for a mate
-. you are capable of taking care
of a wife.
Minneapolis spokesman., 1942-06-19

C. C. X: My father is old and
unable to work. My mother works
and takes care of US but she really
isn't able. Now I have looked for
a job for six months and can't
seem to find one. Do a poor girl
favor and tell her how to get
money to live on.
Ans: It's a waste of time to be
searching for easy money" as you
can expect no more than what you
work for. An able bodied woman
of your age could find work .
get out and begin a grand search
right away. 1t is a shame to sit
around at home month in and
month out without even trying to
find work. Your mother isn't able
to make the living for you and your
father. Decide right now that you
are going to find work before the
week is out and do not stop until
you do.
NJ. G. R.: My first husband died
in '36 and I married the second
time. The second man was so disa-
greeable am sorry to my heart
that 1 ever saw him. I did every
thing to prove a true wife but he
went from bad to worse. He has
been gone 10 months, 1 do not care
to live with him again, so tell me
what to do?
Ans: There would be no point
m trying to live with this man
again when you realize the mar
rage was a mistake. Get your
divorce and go your way alone.
Your second marriage was not
based on love it's impossible to
get along when there is no love
and understanding between you.
The next time you get ready to
marry -. be sure you marry for
something more than convenience
and a meal ticket.
S. T.: Tell me if l will be able
to scare up enough money to go to
beauty school this year.
Ans: Your parents won't be
able to help you with your tuition
-. but they can give you a place
to stay and feed you until you fin
ish the course. My suggestion is
that you get a job and start saving
money for this course and enter the
fall classes.
P. l. p: My mother-in-law re.
fuses to live with any Of her chill.

CALCIUM
The Great Human
Need

People Of all ages need calcium
and few today get a sufficient
amount of it for the greatest of
most abundant health.
The best and the cheapest source
of calcium is in dairy products.
The lower the income for food
the greater the need for more of
dairy products in the regular every
day diet of all of US.
Fresh fluid pasteurized milk
daily in some form should be used,
either as a beverage or in cooked
food.

There are many delightful gifts
you can give your small daughter or
friend If she belongs to the Girl
Scouts. Bracelets. rings, fountain
pens and even compacts are made
with the metal Scout seal on them
Then there are diaries, handbooks,
first aid kits, scrap books and utility
cases that are officially approved by
the organization. These articles are
extras" but necessary equipment
such as uniform, knife, whistle, ETC.,
can also be secured in a number of
local stores -.
Indentification tags for your pet
are always an excellent idea, and
they're especially valuable during
blackouts. Among the several at
tractive styles from which to choose,
are a round metal disc and another
small metal tube-like gadget, either
of which may be engraved with
owners name, address and telephone
number -.
Get your dog some candy to satisfy
his sweet tooth" Among the in
gradients of this doggy delicacy are
dextrose, corn syrup, cocoanut but
ter and soya bean flour, so you see it
is as good for his health as for his
taste -.
Suggestions from the infants de-
partment: A lovely book for keeping
baby's record for seven years is COW
cred in MORE material and would
make an exceptionally attractive
nursery shower present. The book
has places for measurements, photo
graphs and any notations the proud
parents care to make
A sterling silver bib clip is charm
ing and, best of all, an article that
few think of when choosing pres
ent. 1t may be engraved with
baby's initials :.
Attractive bakelite and celluloid
lamps are nice in a child's room.
Story book pictures in gay colors
are placed on the celluloid body of
the lamp to give a pleasing effect
when lighted.
A plain metal cigarette case and

Is the reason that you see lamps
placed at the ends of sofas and close
to large comfortable chairs. In all
good decoration, the use of each
article is behind the custom, and
the tendency of most of us to draw
our chairs up to a good reading light
dictates the placing of lamps. If
you are not a reader and use your
living room just for rest or con-
versation, you may not need the
extra lamps.
Dear Miss Novel;: Can you sug-
gest a color scheme for an all
gray dining room to make it light
and colorful for spring? I shall
need new draperies and plan to re-
coyer the seats of the chairs in
leather. c. S.
Answer-My suggestion would be
jonquil yellow draperies and mint
green leather on the seats of the
chairs, or reversed, with green
draperies and yellow chairs. This
is very cool and summery. Point
it up with white and bits Of coral
color for accents. You might add
pattern interest by carrying lovely
figured wallpaper in panels with the
design in the gray. green, yellow
and white.
Dear Miss NOVEL;: I am using
a box spring on legs for bed with
a round bolster pillow at the wall.
The effect is slightly unfinished and
I would like suggestions of what to
do to make the wall above the bed
more decorative. Id.
Answer-An upholstered head
board would help, or a swag Of
drapery to match the other hang
ings In the room. You might also
use a panel of four pictures framed
alike or three small wall brackets
with decorative figurines to complete
the composition. All it needs is a
wall decoration to balance the size
of the bed.
Dear Miss Novel;: We have a
bathroom which was put into an
old house at the beginning of the

IL feet high and the equipment is
good. but very old-fashioned. Can
you suggest anything that We might
do to make this place less formid-
able? K. T. E.

pink or yellow. Use a wide border

bewildered husband to qualify as a
gigolo, or the head of the firm, or
papa, but when he Is called upon to
combine all three roles it is no mar
vel that he so often fails to give sat-
isfaction.
Every wife wants her husband to
keep up the tactics of courtship even
to their golden wedding anniversary.
In her mind she remains q per-
petual bride and wants him to never
weary Of telling her how beautiful
and wonderful she is. but at the
same time she demands that he be
a go-getter who can bring home the
bacon, although few men combine
the talents Of Henry Ford and Clark
Gable and are ambidextrous enough
to hold their wives hands with one
hand and make a fortune with the
other.
Most wives want their husbands to
treat them as if they were adult
human beings who had good brains,
as we'll as good figures. and were
capable of managing their own af.
fairs. They want their husbands to
trust them with handling money and
to ask their advice and to chum with
them.
But, also, they want to be treated
like spoiled children, and when their
husbands refuse to do this they pack
their trunks and go back to mother.
The brutality" which sends so many
wives to the divorce courts and on
which they collect money consists
in nothing more than their hus-
bands insisting upon them keeping
a budget and living within their
means. or in the inhuman cruelty Of
expecting them to spend as much
time in their kitchens as they do at
their bridge games, and learning
how to make coffee that is fit for
human consumption.
So, taking all these things into
consideration, it is no wonder that
men don't treat women the way they
want to be treated. 1t can't be done.

Many otherwise balanced
diets are lacking In whole grain
products. How can we fit these into
the menu? We can use whole wheat,
or, even better, graham flour instead
of white. We can buy brown rice
instead of white and we can use oat
meal generously in our diet. Be-
sides this we can build up our
vitamin and mineral intake by eat
ing sweet potatoes oftener than
white and by baking our Irish po-
tatoes and eating the skin as well
as the inside.
The idea that white bread is much
more fattening than whole wheat
has captured popular fancy. This is
no doubt due to the fact that whole
wheat bread appears on most re-
ducing diets. The prevalence Of
whole wheat on these small calory
diets is due to the fact that the food
intake Is so limited that vitamins
and minerals must be crowded into
every possible item on the menu.
Actually, the difference in caloric
count between whole wheat bread
and white bread is so small that it is
negligible.
1t also is interesting to know that
graham -four is the only real whole
wheat flour on the market. In this
the entire wheat kernel is ground to
g fine powder while the so-called
whole wheat flour lacks much of the
bran which supplies us with the
phosphates, calcium, magnesium and
potassium. Therefore, if you want
true whole wheat flour do your bak-
ing with the graham variety. This
is not, however, quite so easily di-
gested due to the amount of bran
it contains.
If you wish to have my menus
which give you a big mineral and
vitamin intake, send a Scent

That is Americas fashion motto.
So little lady, go bit flamboyant

blue suit wear a canary yellow or
cherry red blouse. Put bright red on
your lips and on your 10 busy fin

it extra care so it may serve as
flattering halo for your face and
pretty complement to a very color
full. spring bonnet!
Pink-pink, chilli red, canary yel-

green blues and magentas are only
a few Of the shades which will make
more gay your days. These you can
have in cottons and woods, and syn

metic counter will have a lovely new
array of makeup colors to match
them.
But just one word of warning
strong colors were meant to adorn
