The eFrench
Sailors
Home
By Joan Gardner

NEW YORK.-The French sailors
whose pom poms, rouge" have been
adding a gay note to New 'York's
Fifth avenue and Broadway are now
quartered in home of their own,
the French Seamen's Foyer, in the
former Union Jack Club, adjacent to
the well-known Hotel Algonquin.
The boys, who are in New York
with the French battleships now be-
ing repaired in our drydocks, are
lonely boys, for many have not seen
their homes and families for three
years and more, and few have
enough knowledge of English to find
their way comfortably around New
York.
At the official opening of the foyer
this week, the boys entertained the
invited guests with a series of anus
ing skits in French pointing to. their
difficult, and often embarrassing, en-
counters with the language. 1t re-
minded one of the late 2Os, when
Americans, returning from a tour of
Europe, entertained one another on
the homeward voyage with stories of
their amazing exploits in Paris.
The foyer. made possible through
the generous gifts of Miss Anne Nor
gan, Nine. CASTOR Fribourg and
dozens of others whose names are
well known in the social register, is
being sponsored by Vice Admiral
Adolphus Andrews of the United
States Navy and Vice Admiral Ray
mond A. Fenard of the French Navy
In these small but cozily fur
nished rooms, which the boys them
selves helped to decorate, these
sailors will find bit of home. VOL
unteer hostesses, all of whom speak
French fluently, will be in attend
ance every day. To those of us who
attended the opening, there was
more than a little pathos in the
valiant way In which the boys sang,
phonetically, THE Star Spangled
Banner" and finished the cere-
monies with the martial strains of
The Marseillaise If only to pro-
vide the boys with the place where
they can sing their native songs
with "gusto," the foyer shall serve
its purpose.
The walls of the foyer were deco
rated by Jean Pages, well-known
French painter, who donated his
time and talents. One room depicts
in panels the history of French
sailors from Louis XIII until today.
On the walls Of "the little cafe" are
murals of street life in Paris that
will cheer the heart of every lad. At
the entrance hangs the only rule
posted in the clubhouse. 1t states
in French: ITO Talk Politics Is
Strictly Forbidden" A welcoming
note, however, is found in the four
words written over the door, For
Unity and Friendship"
An interesting story might be
written around the pom -poms,
rouge" which all the boys caps now
carry. When they arrived many had
lost the original little red pom-pom
the French sailors caps traditional
ly carry or they were badly frayed.
The French millinery salon of
Fifth avenue speciality shop was
asked where requirements might be
had. The workers of the salon
offered to make them, and put aside
all other work until they had fin
ished thousands of the red POM
poms. No French sailor appears on
the streets today without a properly
decorated cap.

Equal Jobs Mean
We Get Equal
treatment
By Patricia Lindsay

The national emergency has
changed our lives in numerous ways.
Old standards are forgotten, new
ones are created. And thus has
come about a brand-new code of
manners which women and girls
must embrace even though they
differ greatly from what we were
taught during our formative years.
War jobs have put many women
and girls on equal footing with men.
Naturally the feminine gender can
not expect the men to stand aside
In courtly manner and let women
be served first in factory cafeterias
or dining rooms; tired or not, girls
must expect to stand in buses and
trains and cars If they are of
group of workers. We hope some
men of greater vitality will still
offer ladies their seats, but we hon.
estly cannot expect them to do SO
if their jobs are arduous and work.
ing days are long.
Then there is the new problem of
middle-aged and older women in
business. Because of their age and
not because of their sex, this group
must be given the preference by girls
and men alike. They should be
offered seats. allowed to pass first
in and out of elevators and convey
ances. They need not be given first
places in cafeteria lines though, for
there 1t is first come, first serve"
because all eating time is limited.
Girls who have gone into Offices
and factories, to work side by side
with men, for the same wages and
considerations, should drop their
wiles. Flirting is definitely taboo
during working hours, as is obvious
dressing. Not long ago girls were
asked not to wear sweaters to work
at least sweaters which revealed
their feminine curves. This was a
practical and sane request and
blushed for girls who insisted,
threatened to quit their jobs unless
the request was withdrawn.
If We as group demand equal
rights with men, then we must for
get the sex which attracts. The
chic, practical uniform Is the answer
to what to wear while working and
the sooner plants insist upon such
uniform the better. If production
is the main problem, then girls
should face the fact that feminine
curves are distracting to male
workers and they should, through
patriotism, dress so as not to dis
tract manpower.
This may sound old-fashioned but
1t is not. 1t is current thinking.
Women have to make up their minds
whether they want to be the de-
pendent sex, loved and cherished,
supported and partly suppressed, or
put, on an equal footing with men
and given the proverbial freedom OF
men. If they choose the latter,
they have to play fair game-be
efiicient workers by day and glamour
girls only after the work-day has
ended! That IS the way men play.
And do not show impatience over
slow service In stores. at elevators,
In restaurants or wherever you
would normally expect to find good
service. Every Arm is understaffed
these days and 1t Is part Of our
duty to make things as easy as
ooestble. 90 let's hold our tongues!
Evening star., 1943-04-13

hard fact that what they do is
Tor the most part, done for them
selves. They would suffer most if
they left these things for which
they are paid in terms of money,
undone.
Children need praise and rewards.
When they are little, they must be
given prompt and tangible reward
for well doing so that they learn
TO enjoy the approval good behavior
brings. One must remember to
smile, praise and hug the baby, when
he makes a brave effort to make
spoon and mouth meet neatly. A
gold star on the daily chart for the
4-year-old helps strengthen him in
well-doing.
We wean child away from the
tangible rewards, however, as soon
as he can feel and begin to under
stand the affection and love and
care that is bestowed Upon him by
those who love him. He is given
all he needs freely because of that
love. His mother prepares his food
with care, just to his liking, be-
cause she wants to please him. She
gets his clothes to suit him, his toys
to delight him, not because she is
paid for doing it but because her
love for her child delights in serving
him. Father asks no pay for all he
does for his children. All he asks
is love and service of love and that
is what all children owe all fathers
and mothers.
AS soon as children want to spend
a penny they should be given an al
lowance, taught to spend it, account
for it, make it serve them as fully
as possible. That is an important
part of their training for life. Some
times it is allowable to pay child
for service, occupied time he might
have used to earn money outside,
and his doing it at home saved the
family money. But even that situa-
ton needs careful thought. Chill
dren love home and parents and
serving them is the expression of
that love. Nothing in life is more
important to those same children.

Learning How
To Buy Meat
BY Edith NJ. Barber

Housekeepers are learning more
about the various cuts of meats than
they ever before have known. They
study point value, and realize that
cuts which contain a goodly propor-
ton of bone, have lower value than
other more solid cuts. However,
more pounds and, therefore, more
points will be needed to get salts
flying portion of cuts with bone
From necessity, women are trying
meats they have never included in
their menus. They have discovered
that lamb kidney is just as good as
veal kidney. and much more delicate
than beef kidney. The very fact that
the flavor of the latter is more pro-
nounced, makes it more appropriate
to use with beef. Nothing is better
than a beef and kidney pie, made
with biscuit or potato crust which
takes very little shortening.
Many recipes which had been
arranged for the use of solid meat.
may still be put to use with bonv
cuts if larger amount is allowed.
There is boeuf en- daube, which
is fancy name for a delicious beef
stew. The original recipe called for
IL pounds of solid beef. This can
be replaced by 21a pounds of meat
with bone.
BOEUF EN- DAUBE.
1k pounds solid round beef or 219
pounds beef with bone, bacon or
ham drippings, flour.
Glove garlic, peeled.
u cup boiling water.
Y cup red wine.
u teaspoon salt.
small onions.
u cup diced carrots.
4 peppercorns.
whole cloves.
2 bay leaves.
Have beef cut in 1-inch pieces,
dredge with flour, and brown on all
sides with garlic in drippings. Re-
move garlic, add other ingredients.
Cover and simmer over low heat, or
bake in slow oven 600 degrees F.)
about hours until meat is tender.
Yield: Six servings.
Note: The wine may be replaced
by u cup water and 2 tablespoons
vinegar.

Jefferson Believed Woman's Place
Was in the Home, Not in Politics

luXuriant auburn hair, a brilliant
complexion and lustrous hazel eyes.
Jefferson lavished notable devotion
upon his accomplished and amiable
wife and their marriage was an
exceedingly happy one. Her death
10 years after the marriage left JEFF
ferson miserable and brought upon
him a melancholy from which he
gradually drew himself only by a
renewed and increased interest in
external things.
OF their six children, only two
daughters survived infancy. Both
of these, however, were talented and
lovely and Jefferson's affection for
his motherless daughters was one
of his most beautiful and touching
traits.
The many letters which jefferson
wrote to his daughters. and they to
him, give marvellous pictures of de-
votion between them. Public de-
mands upon the time of the father
were never allowed to shut him off
completely from his beloved daugh-
ters. He watched meticulously over
every detail of their lives.
The younger daughter, Maria, was
said to have been so beautiful that
none ever saw her except to admire
her exquisite features. coloring and
expression. Her death while still
young was terrible loss to her
father, and his letters reveal a
wound that could never be healed.
Martha, the older daughter, who
married her cousin, Tom Randolph,
gained wide acclaim as a charming
hostess when she and her family
lived at the White House during her
fathers presidency. Jefferson adored
her children and spent hours enter
tanning them.
Girls came into Jefferson's cate
gories only as future wives and
mothers. He believed women should
stay out of politics after marriage
and be "contented to soothe and
calm the minds of their husbands
returning ruffled from political de-
bate"
Imagine sthe dismay which a
glimpse of the activities of women
today would arouse in man who
wrote, as Jefferson did to Albert
Gallatin in 1907. THE appointment
of woman to Office is an innovation
for which the public is not prepared,
nor am l."

Halfway
Between
Rules
BY E miiy Post

That the names of divorced
parents shall not appear together on
their daughters wedding cards is a
rule of ethical Importance as well
as merely social form. But the fol-
lowing question is one of those half
between -the-rules situations that
leaves me somewhat in quandary:
my daughter is to be married. Her
father and are getting divorce,
but at the time of the wedding will
not actually be divorced. This being
the case, will 1t be all right for us
to send out her wedding invitations
and announcements in the name of
Mr.. and Mrs. -? We are natu-
rally both very fond of her and
neither wants to be omitted. Also I
think she would feel bad to have to
leave off one of us"
The best answer I can make Is
that it depends upon whether the
divorce proceedings are known gen.
orally, or whether appearances" are
still being preserved. In other
words, if he is to join you in the
front pew, and go with you to the
house for the reception and act as
host, it should be all right to have
your names appear together on the
wedding cards. But if you have al
ready separated and made this evi-
dent, it will be as improper to in
clude both names as it would were
your divorce absolute In any case,
as you know, your daughters father
should walk up the aisle with her
and give her away.
Dear Mrs. Post: May bride wear
silver slippers with her white bridal
dress and veil at an evening we'd
ding? Otherwise, it will necessitate
buying new slippers and every ex-
pense not absolutely necessary is out
of the question.
AnsWer-Although persons of con-
servative taste prefer white satin or
silk, silver is quite all right-espe-
cially at night. The one present
fashion which is in really bad taste
(as will perhaps some day be real
ized) are bare toes-whether only
one shows through a hole in each
slipper or all are on view between
straps!
Dear Mrs. Post: I want to invite
three men who live together to
party and yet only send one note of
invitation. Shall I begin Dear
Friends which I don't like-or
how else?
Answer-Write to Dear Tom
Will you and Dick and Harry come
to my party, etc." or if you don't
want to single one out of the three,
then begin Dear Tom, Dear Dick
and Dear Harry" or no beginning,
simply, This is an invitation to all
three of you to come to my party"
etc.
Dear Mrs. Post: My mothers
mother passed away several months
ago. We have not been in strict
mourning but mother has worn
black and other sombre colors. I'm
going to be married soon and mother
wonders if she may wear a black
dress with lace top if she wears
lavender flowers and jewelry to re-
lieve the black look? 1 mean at
the wedding. of course.
Answer: Yes, perfectly we'll
Are you trying to make plans
to be married to a man in the

Br Harriet GriHfhs

Every phase of the career of
Thomas Jefferson is certain to be
discussed during the celebration of
the bicentenary of his birth, be-
ginning today and continuing until
duly 4. The part which women
played in his life is a subject of
interest to all who are acquainted
with his biography. 1t also should
nave some attraction for the gen.
erality of feminine readers.
Little is known of Jefferson's
mother. who died in ITS, probably
before July 4. The former Jane
Randolph, she came from a proud,
educated, refined and hospitable
Virginia family which traced its
lineage back to the Earls of Murray
in Scotland When she married
Peter Jefferson at the age of 10 she
left one of the stateliest homes on
the James to live in his wilderness
cottage in upland Virginia. Very
little mention of her appears in the
writings of her son, Thomas, who.
albeit known to have been devoted
to his mother, seemed somewhat ret
icent to discuss her
Although some of the 10 children
of Peter Jefferson and his wife were
girls, the sisters of Thomas Jeffer-
son apparently took relatively in
significant place among the women
who influenced his life,
But Jefferson was by no means
immune to the charms of a pretty
girl during his young manhood. In
deed, to quote the Dictionary of
American Biography, "he visited
homes, made wagers with girls, gos-
( siped about love affairs and served
at weddings"
Letters written to a bosom friend
indicate that the young Jefferson
was deeply enamored of Miss Re
becca Burwell while at college
Whether he ever reached the point
of proposing to her is uncertain;
at any rate, Miss Burwell took mat
ters into her own hands by marrying
some one else.
1t was not until the young. hand
some. prospectively wealthy widow,
Martha Shelton, appeared on the
scene that his fancy was caught
irrevocably.
On New Year Day, 1772. Thomas
Jefferson and Martha Skelton were
married at the home of Martha s
father, John Wayles, near Williams
burg. A few days after the elab-
crate wedding festivities the young
couple, eager to be in their own
house, went to Monticello, only part
of which was finished at the time
namely. the southeastern pavilion. -
