Dorothy Dix Says

If could give one piece of advice
more earnest than any other to
every young bride, would say: Make
a profession of domesticity. Make
an art of cookery. Make science
of running a budget. Put just as
much intelligence and hard work
into studying how to be good
housekeeper as you would into pre-
pairing yourself to be a doctor, or 4
lawyer, or private secretary.
Don't think that marriage is an
invitation to sit down on the do
nothing stool and let George do it,
and that because you have a hus-
band who is legally bound to sup
port you that you can spend the
balance of your life playing bridge
and going to bargain sales. Don't
delude yourself into thinking that
because you can't be fired for lazi-
ness and trifling and general in
competence that it gives you the
privilege of loaflng on your job.
You may get by with it. Lots Of
wives do. There are plenty of wom-
en- who spoil good food for 40 years
and throw half of their husbands
earnings into the garbage can with
out ever learning how to make bis
cult that is fit for human con-
sumption, or to turn a house into a
home. Don't be one of these
feminine chiselers who makes mar
riage nothing but graft.
1t is curious thing that although
domesticity is women's hereditary
calling and the one they plan and
desire to follow, they look down
upon it with contempt. You will
hear them say disparagingly: I'm
only a housewife" Or, II wish I
had something interesting to do like
being in business" Or, II wish I
knew some way to make money, but
I have never done anything but
keep house"
And because they think their oc-
cupation neither romantic, nor
thrilling, nor profitable, millions Of
women never bother to perfect
themselves in 1t. They never even
try to learn how to make decent cof-
fee, or to cook the kind OF a dinner
that keeps husband walking the
straight and narrow path back to
his home of an evening.
Yet the fate of every family lies in
Evening star., 1944-02-08
Hearts and Flowers

An age-old custom has decreed
that on st. Valentines Day young
people-and their older brothers and
sisters, too, for that matter-should
exchange sentimental missives and
tender tokens-or sometimes the
missives were anything but affec-
tionate, dealing instead with the
foibles of the recipient. These, how
ever, were distinctly not "in the ira
dition."
Just how this day we commemo-
rate became associated with love
messages is lost in the pages of his
tory, for it was originally a Roman
festival to welcome spring. How
ever, surprisingly enough, St. Valen-
tines Day has survived more than
1000 years OF changing world, and
this year again 1t will be a sweet
heart" occasion for our boys and
girls, no matter what distance sep
arates them.
The display Of valentines this year
is a little unusual. True, there is
still a considerable supply OF cards
boasting bluebirds and cooling doves,
plus lacy frills, but along with many
other things, cards, too, have been
converted to war. The American
eagle, with its wide wing spread, has
replaced the bluebird to give the
proper military tone to the remem-

brance. Like the Christmas and
New Year cards, some of these are
designed especially for men and
women in the various branches of
the service. In fact, the largest ma
jority OF the present-day display is
patterned along these lines. Don't
fret. There are still enough Of the
sweet, frilly type in stock to send
along to mother, Aunt Sue and
Grandaddy Joe. Just be certain
when selecting your cards that each
one flts the individual who Is to re-
ceive 1t.
Flowers have always played an
important role on the Valentine
Day stage. Corsages, on this occa-
sion, take the lead, with vase ar
rangements running a close second.
In past decades violets were un-
doubtedly THE Valentine favorite,
but in recent years they have bowed
out to gardenias, orchids and car
nations. However, a heart shaped
corsage or hair ornament made of
a variety Of flowers ranging from a
single rose surrounded by violets,
bouvardia or carnation petals is
both smart and attractive.
Orchids came into popularity
when the public began to under
Evening star., 1944-02-08

stand that, in spite Of It's fragile
appearance, 1t is one OF the hardi-
est OF cut flowers. Properly treated,
put in the refrigerator at night,
you'll find an orchid may be worn
for many days.
We understand that the carna-
ton was an outstanding favorite in
the gay 90s, but we'll bet you
will see many a modern miss sport
ing an appropriately arranged cor
sage Of the spicy scented flowers
on this coming "sweethearts" day.
Sweetpeas make an ideal corsage,
especially for the very young miss
The lovely pastel colors of this
dainty bloom would 60 well with
her party dress. If her club is giving
q social on this occasion.
Have the florist tie red, white and
blue ribbons on the corsage, with
possibly a service emblem attached
and the recipients heart will be
twice as fluttery.
Don't forget the convalescent on
this day. Have your florist make
an arrangement that will enhance
the natural beauty of the flowers by
clever combination of colors. Also
have them delivered in containers
to spare busy nurses the extra time
and attention needed to fix the
flowers.

Emily Post
Advises

The fact that I myself have
written millions Of words on the
unending aspects of etiquette is in
itself proof that almost everything
we do or say-and, more especially,
Thinks subject to change. This
only partly answers the following
letter! Il work for a man who is
one of the kindest on this earth.
He has always given me a Christ
mas present. The last several years
I have given him merely a carton
of his brand of cigarettes. I did
this again this year and then I read
somewhere in your opinion it was
best for an employe not to give her
employer present. Will you please
explain in a little more detail why
1t is wrong for some one like myself
to give her employer a Christmas
PRESENT."
Judging by the answer you say I
gave, it must have been to one who
was general office employe and
not to one who is private secre-
tary or any other who comes into
personal contact with the man she
works for. In this last case there is
no further rule either for or against
her giving her employer a present,
other than her own good taste. It
is taken for granted, of course, that
the present will not be one of con-
spicuous value.
Dear Mrs. Post: Is a girl Of Is
too young to wear earrings? I'd
rather wear some at our Junior
prom If it would be suitable.
Answer-Those that are either in
expensive or amusing would be quite
proper. In fact, the only ones that
would not be suitable are long eve
ming ones or those Of too great
value.
