Dorothy Dix Says

It Is not easy for any man and
woman to adjust themselves to each
other in the marriage relationship.
No matter how long they have been
engaged, nor how much they think
they are familiar with each others
qulrks and kinks of character. They
discover that they are united to
perfect strangers with whom they
are as little acquainted as they
would be with mail order husband
and wife whom they had selected
out of catalog and had never seen
until they were delivered at the
church door.
And if it is hard for the husbands
and wives who have known each
other ever since their mud pie days
and who are privileged to live to-
gether during the first years of their
marriage, when there is still enough
OF the romantic courtship left to
gloss over many difficult situations,
to adapt themselves to each other,
it is going to be far more difficult
for the thousands of young people
who are rushing into war marriages
with practically chance acquaint-
ances, and who are parted before
they have time to really know each
other and to learn to make the
mutual concessions that will make
their marriages successes.
For these young couples are ex-
pecting to take up their marriage
after the war just where they laid
them down. The husbands, when
they come marching home. expect to
find their wives as pretty and young
and girlish as when they left them,
but waiting and anxiety and work
and worry will have taken the bloom
off of their youth and turned them
into women whom they scarcely
recognize
The young wives, as they knit
their sweaters and roll their band
ages, have pictured their Toms, and
Dicks, and Harrys, as returning just
as boyish as when they went away,
just as keen about jitterbugging and
going places and doing things and
falling in with the gang.
But their dreams never material
ize. Their boy husbands never come
back home in their old likeness.
They have been changed into sober
men. They have looked on danger
and death. They have known suf-
fering and disease and hardship.
They are adult And it is strange
men with whom their wives have
got to get acquainted and adjust
themselves.
This is going to take a lot of
doing. A lot of patience. A lot of
understanding and sympathy. For
when the f1ag-waving and the glori-
flying is over, and the shouting and
the tumult dies, many a marriage
will 60 on the rocks unless the wives,
who were left behind, have prepared
themselves to accept the husbands
the war has fashioned for them, and
to give them the love and tender
ness that they are going to need
to heal the wounds that the hard
ships they have gone through have
dealt them.

A little child sent out to play
Will play for time and then go
back to the house and shout for his
mother. When she comes running
to see what is wrong he usually says,
"Oh nothing" and goes back to his
games. He wanted to make sure
his mother was there, at home, just
in case he needed her. He will need
her very soon again because he
needs to be reassured of her. pro-
tecting, comforting presence about
every hour in the day.
The school children stay in
school all day apparently with no
thought of home or mother, but
the moment they enter the door
of home they call. Nom, hullo
nom, where are you?" If she an
swers, all is well. They go to the
ice box or the pantry shelf and
begin on their refreshments. But
they want to know their mother is
at hand. They want to tell her
about their day. and above all, they
want to be reassured of her pres
ence. They want to feel her strength
supporting them. And this is true
OF even the most independent, rudest
youngster of them all.
That is why we say that mothers
OF younger children should be the
last, the very last, to enter war
work. Rearing healthy children is
the greatest service a woman can
render her country in peace or in
war. Nobody on earth, however
well intentioned, can take the place
OF q childs own mother. Many have
tried 1t but few have succeeded.

need their food, as they need the

II you have small casseroles which
are known sometimes as "au

useful both for baking and serving
baked egg dishes. Leftover meat or
vegetables can be combined with a
cream sauce, part of which is placed
in the bottom of the dish. The egg
or eggs are dropped on this, and the
remainder of the sauce poured over
them. Soft bread crumbs, rolled

Ruffled curtains are one of the
first signs that spring is here. The
shops are full of snowy piles of
sheer draperies that make us quickly
forget the gray of winter days and
look forward to soft zephyrs being
waited through the living room
windows
There are not quite as many pas
tel-tinted curtains this year as for
merly, but the good old standbys,
white, eggshell and ecru, go well
with any background. Plain mar
uuisette, cushion-d marqui-
settle, voile, organdy and nets, as
well as the rayon and celanese
tailored varieties, are plentiful.
There are few clever innova-
tions that make this years cur
tains a good investment. With the
thought that women are buying
thriftily, one manufacturer offers
a double life" curtain which actu-
ally plays double role in two ways!
With a heading at the top and bot
tom for the curtain rod, it is sug-
gested that the curtains be turned
upside down after each washing. In
this way the part which gets the
most wear cat sill height where
the air blows through the open
window is reversed every month
or so. With wear and tear distrib-
uted the life of the curtain is
doubled.
The second double role is that
these curtains may be used tied
back or left straight. Most ruffled
curtains which are graceful when
tied back are not attractive when
permitted to hang straight. This
is caused by the fact that the CEN
ter ruffle is sewed to the cut edge
of the material, and once the cur
tain has been draped back this
cut edge stretches slightly so that
1t never hangs straight again. The
double role curtain has a 11a-inch
hem on all sides which gives the
necessary body" to keep the edge
from stretching. With graceful
ruff1e sewed to this hem the cur
tain is equally attractive, and
straight-hanging, tied back or left
plain.
These come in three shades
white, cream and a very useful
pink-toned beige that is suitable in
almost any interior: Made of a very

of the curtain SO that they, may be

To correct minor posture faults
the child should faithfully practice
the required exercises daily. This is
slow and tedious procedure, but Sc
worth while to future health and
beauty. If noticeably faulty posture
habits are present it is best to visit
skilled orthopedist for advice
A thorough physical examination
should be made to ascertain whether
or not the childs trouble comes from
any specific physical cause.
