Dorothy Dix SAYS

the cat dragged in, and worked their
fingers to the bone, and stayed at
home and got dull trying to save
to help their husbands get start,
and who were forsaken for young
and pretty girls after husband got
rich.
So, Clara, the best investment you
can make of part OF your money Is
to keep yourself dolled up and In
the running with your husband.

USES FOR SURPLUS MILK

(From Mrs. II. S. L., Silper Spring. J
wish to thank Mrs. A. r. G..
Bethesda, Md, for sending in the
title of the book, Peasant Art in
Europe" published in London in
1927 by Ernest Benn, Ltd. Looking
over this book has proven very
great pleasure and inspiration
Would be glad to hear of any other
titles on peasant art, weaving, etc
The aforementioned book shows
work from so many countries as to
prove that talent is universal
I have been told that the WPA
has published work along this line
as to handmade work in the United
States.
So many of my young neighbors
complain of occasional surpluses of
milk on hand which they are afraid
will sour Here are some ways of
making use of the milk before sour
ing can take place; or after it has
done so.
Eor Strictly Fresh Sweet Milk
Cream of tomato soup using canned
tomato soup Cor other cream soups
Baked custard pie Baked custard
in cups. Boiled custard. Prepared
cuStard mix may be used.
For Sour Milk-Any prepared mix
of gingerbread, devils food cake,
mullins, ETC., which call for fresh
milk can be used if u teaspoon soda
is added to sour milk before COM
bining with the prepared mix. I
have experimental with several
packaged mixes and have had no
failures.
The same is true of recipes for
biscuits, cake, mullins, etc., which
call for sweet milk.
Personally, I think biscuits made
with sour milk are better.
Salad dressing made with sour
cream is very good, especially for
potato salad, and if celery seed is
added.
I think one reason I have gotten
by with meal preparation in this
war is that do not plan menus un-
til I go to the store and see what
is on hand. Whichever vegetable is
the freshest and best looking, if not
too high in price, is my choice.
In the case of meats, I try to do
the best I can with what little is
available.

(From Mrs. o. A. W., Washington. J
My husband got some varnish on

soaked it in turpentine for several

The pavement stones resound,
AS he totters o'er the ground
With his cane.

Through the town.
But now he walks the streets,
And he looks at all he meets
And he Shakes his feeble head,

The messy marbles rest
On the lips that he has prest
And the names he loved to hear
Have been carved for many year
On the tomb.

Poor lady, she is dead
That he had a Roman nose,
And his cheek was like rose
In the snow.
But now his nose Is thin.

And a crook Is in his back,
And melancholy crack

Wives Shouldn't
Give Up Men to
Foreiqn Women
BY RUTH MILLETT

A Tennessee wife is in a quandary
over what to do about her husband
who has asked for a divorce so that
he can marry French girl who is
about to bear his child
The husband claims he still loves
his wife and child back home ara
that he doesn't love the French
girl, but her parents are strictly
religious. and she will be an outcast
if the baby is born without a ia
ther. I feel that the only thing for
me to do is for you to divorce me
so that 1 can marry her and give
the baby name"
Stuff and nonsense. The Wife'S
position ought to be clear in a case
like that. If she doesn't want her
husband back under those condi-
tions, then she can give him a
divorce
But if she wants him, she and
their child have first claim. Forelsn
women who are having affairs with
American men are playing this poor
little betrayed girl role to the limit
They have a decided advantage in
their claims over the wife back
home. because they are where the
men can see their tears and hear
their avoWalS of undying love.
And they have particularly
callous attitude toward the wife
who has been waiting the war out
The English mother of the quad
ruplctS born to a married American
soldier even had the nerve to speak
of her lovers settling "the affair
with his wife"
But the wife of man overseas
has a right to demand that he
come home to heretofore he lets
a foreign mistress talk him into a
divorce And if she never divorces
him, that is her right, too
Any foreign girl who takes on a
married American seryiceman for
the duration ought not to be al
lowed to shove an American wife
out of her rightful place-unlesS
the wife wants to let her huS-
band 60.
And the wife who meekly divorces
a husband she still loves under
those circumstances is a sissy She
may like to think of herself AS
noble, but the truth is she just
hasn't the courage to take a stand
and make a fight for it.
What was it the American officer
replied to the German officers de-
mand that his men surrender? 1t
was a four-letter AmericaniSm wives
might use just as effectively in
answering the demand of foreign
women that they give up their
husbands
