born and from that day to this I
have not received a single letter
from lad complaining of his fate
or bemoaning the hardships he is
enduring.
Great and many are the sacrifices
these boys have had to make. They
have had to leave those they love
and 60 far from home. They have
had to give up their jobs and quit
their professions, and they know
that they will have to 60 through
all the weary and heart-breaking
process of getting start again
after the war is over. They have to
face danger and death, but they are
doing it with smile and with
heroism that is beyond belief.
Somehow war has put steel into
f1abby muscles and given them arms
that are strong enough to defend
their country. Somehow war has
opened the eyes Of those who were
blind so that they have had vision
Of something that was greater than
themselves and that was worth liv-
ing for and dying for if need be.
Somehow the war has braced up
the weakened and given them
strength to be men. Somehow it has
disciplined the undisciplined and un-
done the work of foolish parents.
War has given us new generation
of men who will carry on the work
that the founding fathers started.
Great and terrible is the price of
war, but if it has helped the youth
of today to find it's soul it is worth
the price.

FOT long tlme De1Ore the COM
ing of the war I was greatly sad
dened by the tone of these letters.
Almost without exception they were
filled with bitterness, pessimism and
Illustration. They we're simply green
and Shiny with envy. There was
none of the optimism that should
belong to youth in them; none of
the brave spirit Of adventure that
made difficulties challenge to
them: none of the belief in them
selves that made them feel that
they could buck the world and take
from it what they wanted; none of
that rugged individualism that
made their forefathers carve an en-
pire out of a wilderness and feel
that they could stand on their own
feet and with their own hands make
their own fortunes, asking help of
no one.
On the contrary, their letters were
walls of despair. They were written
by defeatists who were beaten with
out ever having struck a blow in
their own defense. They shrieked
their resentment at not having been
born millionaires. They blamed the
older generation for having left the
world in what they called mess"
for them, forgetting that every big
enterprise, every skyscraper, every
railroad, every comfort and luxury
they had was built out of the vision
and the blood and the sweat of the
men who had gone before them.
Apparently their only ambition
was to be playboys; their only desire
was for money and the things money
buys. Their only conception of
happiness going to night clubs and
speeding about in high-powered
cars. At the glory Of achievement,
at the thrill of work we'll done. they
sneered as at the old-fashioned
ideas OF dotards. Not for them!
Il am not going to slave and save
as my father did. Why would you
believe 1t he was 40 years old before
he had a car? I'm not going to be
like that. I'm going to have the
things 1 want while I am young and
can enjoy them" wrote one boy to
me. And there were literally thou
sands Of other letters in lust the
same tenor. Boys who were deter
mined not to work. Boys who loafed
because they couldn't start out as
bank presidents. Boys who BIAS
phemed at God and man because
the world wasn't oft-cushioned and
satin-lined for them.
And my heart sank as I read these
letters and wondered what would
become of our country when it
passed into The hands of these soft
les, these cutters and shirkers who
refused to measure up to the re-
sponsibilities Of manhood.
But the war has changed all of
that. A miracle has happened, for
it is not too much to say that on
the day that Pearl Harbor was
raided a new generation of boys was

II you give a New Year party for
your favorite friends you'll be sure
to win high rank as hostess II you
plan your refreshments around a
cheese tray bountifully stocked with
the more epicurean varieties. It's
considerate, too, to give extra
thought to the condiments that
have special affinities for the various
cheeses.
It's good hospitality strategy to
set up your cheese tray for help
yourself service. This Is always
popular with men, and it gives you
time to see that supplies are replen-
ished and that everybody is having
q good time. Liederkranz cheese.
served with pumpernickel, chill
sauce, mustard or onions, is special
male favorite that can be counted
on to bring extra cheers from the
boys on furlough. Brie cheese is
another delicacy the Army camps
don't serve that has special appeal
to masculine palates. AS tasty
variation of the usual breadand-
cracker combinations, you might
spread Brie on thin. hot toast with
strawberry jam. BY all means CO.
star Camembert with toasted rolls
and shiny red apples, but as a treat
for those that like unexpected taste
teasers, mix Camembert with chop
ped dill pickles and serve on crack
ers or bread.
And when you plan your party
don't forget the cocktail cheese
spreads, which come in 5-ounce re-
usable glasses. These party favorites
include blue cheese type, which
replaces the vanished Roquefort,
as we'll as sharp American, Linn
burger, pimento, olive pimento, pine
apple and relish. They're good on
your self-service tray and they make
toothsome sandwich filings. too.
Try the pimento spread mixed with

bread or the pineapple cheese spread

blue cheese spreads are both good

Eat Good Breakfast

Every homemaker should see that
her family does not dash out of the
house every morning with nothing
more than a hurried breakfast-a
piece of toast and a cup of coffee
on the run. Even worse, perhaps.
is the mistake of letting them slip
off with no breakfast at all.
The habit of going to work with
out breakfast often results in IA
tigue, a drop in production and
sometimes accidents. An adequate
breakfast is, therefore, not only de-
sirable, but real necessity, espe-
cially now when so manv of US are
doing war work. See that your fam.
lily gets good start every morning
by serving fruit, cereal, eggs, toast
and beverage.

Plenty of Beans
For Meatless
Day Serving
Crops Are Almost
Doubled Over
Last Year

It is time to get the bean pot off
the top shelf Of the cupboard. If
you haven't one on hand, you can
use a pottery or heat-proof cas-
serole with a cover, of course Baked
beans, according to regulations, can
not be packed in cans this year be-
cause they can be made at home.
There will be plenty of beans as
the crop is almost double that of
last year. The majority Of beans
are Of the small soup-bean type,
but there are also good crops of
kidney beans and limas so that you
can have variety when you bake
them or use them for other purposes.
Beans will soon be listed as a vic
tory-food special.
On that meatless day they will
give us = hearty dish for dinner.
Perhaps you will like to make or
buy brown bread to go with them,
especially when you bake beans New
England style.
Dried beans are the better for
soaking before cooking. After they
are; washed they should be allowed
to soak overnight. They should
then be simmered until the skins
are loose. Then you are ready to
use them for baking or for other
purposes. Boiled lima beans may
be used by merely dressing them
with butter or sauce. That quick
Hollandaise sauce, which has the
tang of lemon juice, is particularly
good with them.
There will probably be more kid
ney beans in dried form available
at grocery stores than usual in cities
where previously this type of bean
had been bought in canned FORM
