 The rumors, meanwhile, continue to pile up. One story is that the dead ringleaders have been buried at sea. Another is that their bodies were cremated. The Moscow press is handling the aftermath matter of-factly. But the British press is paying at American authorities, ac- cusing them of bungling and trying to hush-up the Goering suicide.

Can boys under II be expected
to wash behind their ears? An idle
question; of course, they can't.
Who is unreasonable-a husband
who asks his wife to wash his back
or wife who says, You could reach
It if you tried hard enough?"
Are fingernail clippers vulgar, even
In the privacy of the bedroom?
Maybe so, but they're darned con-
venient.
Can a wife be trusted with q
charge account? Freddy gets hurt
and huffy when he discovers I've
opened one unbeknoWnst to him
It's the only way I can.
Does the comforter go under the
bedspread, or should it be rolled up
at the foot of the bed? We've fought
over that one so long Freddy can't
remember which they did when he
was a boy in upstate New York.
He keeps the argument going by re-
versing himself; whichever I do is
wrong.
Some of his silly ideas would be
sort of cute if he didn't cling to
them so tenaciously and make such
an issue of them.
1t would be simpler to have a
nice, easy-going husband who'd say,
Darling, it doesn't make any differ
ence to me. Do it your own way"
and say it joyfully, with no sardonic
unoertones.
Or don't husbands come that way?

If man and woman are nerv-
ously exhausted the last thing in
the world they need is trip with
young children. Usually the geta-
way for an average family vaca-
ton Is enough to give one a nervous
breakdown and the average vaca =
ton only gives one time to get
to the spot he wishes to visit and
then turn around and come back.
If you become car sick or have
headaches from the glare when
driving through the country it seems
silly to take motor trip. If you
get sea sick then I can think of
better ways to spend a vacation
than sea voyage If you are
scared pink of planes then why
waste nervous energy that way?
Often we embark on a vacation
without giving it much thought, and
this is fun, too, but many times
such trips backfire and hardly seem
worth the turmoil when they are
over. So, as the old wanderlust
raises its head this summer, it
might be wise to weigh your physi-
cal as we'll as your financial re-
sources, before dashing off on a va
cation which may leave you more
tired than you were when you START
ed and which may not make up for
it in change of pace, mental stimu-
lation or spiritual satisfaction.
If you wish to have my leahet No.
So which lists many vacation spots,
tricks in camping and suggestions
for activities for children during
summer months, send a stamped,
self-addressed envelope with your
request for it to Josephine Lowman

my own system.
OF course. I am fortunate in hav.
ing large refrigerator-one that

who lives in the average kitchenette
apartment, with correspondingly
small icebox, would have to shop
oftener, for smaller quantities. but
IN general, her system could follow

Every Thursday evening I check
carefully on all supplies that are in
the perishable category, such as
fruits, meats, vegetables, eggs, and
so on. Then plan tentative menus

Friday. There has to be some lee
way, of course. for unexpected din

plan pretty closely on just what
will be needed for each meal-AND
thus plan to make good use Of left

roast of some kind each week, plan
to use that first Saturday night, and
then start it on its career of left

course, we have fish. (We do not

Why Grow Old?
By yosebhine Lowman

As people we are so vacation
minded that outside of the real
grief and anxiety which the war
brought, our greatest hardship dur
ing the war was being unable to
throw few things into bag and
go for trip. If tires and new cars
were easily available this summer
I imagine the highways would be
jammed as never before. AS it is,
hotels, trains and planes are booked
far ahead as the folks on this side of
the world prepare for their first
real vacation in four years.
I have just looked the word vaca-
ton up in the dictionary. 1t says
that vacation means being free
from duty. service" or IAN intermis-
sion or period of rest" or "a holi-
day" or IAN act or instance of va
eating, especially of vacating an Of
fee" We can all agree on that
last one!
A vacation means many different
things to different people. 1t de-
pends on the kind of life you lead,
your regular duties and RESPONSE
biiities and your own temperament
and outlook. The most restful thing
imaginable for a woman who has
been responsible for housekeeping
and young family is week spent
in a good hotel. There are times in
life when the opportunity for late
morning sleep, for ordering meals in
ones room and for days with Moth
ing at all one must do, are more
alluring than glimpse of the most
inspiring mountain peak. the finest
Indian handiwork or the loveliest
emerald sea!

Etiquette

The following QUESTIONABLE was
submitted by a group of newly
returned servicemen who write that
their behavior was not too good to
begin with and that unfortunately
they have picked up customs in odd
places overseas.
/. How long is it proper to stay
after dinner in a friends house,"
Answer: Usually an hour but this
depends upon what is happening
afterward. If conversation is gen.
eral and lively or II you play a
game, you stay longer, Of course, but
if conversation lags, then it is best
to take leave.
2. "(A) Is 1t proper to walk up
to a table of friends in a public
place when you were not asked to
go with them in the first place?
(B) What is right if only one of the
group happens to be a friend?"
Answer: CAD 1t is proper to greet
them, but not to join them unless
invited to do so. (B) You greet the
friend only If you pass the table, but
you would not 60 up to him.
3. rs it impolite not to look at
person all the time he is talking
to you?"
Answer: Generally speaking, you
are expected to pay attention to the
person you are talking with, but
you don't look with a fixed stare.
4. How can you handle the sit
uation when you stop in at friend s
house and find the family about to
sit down to meal?"
Answer: Unless you are earnestly
urged to stay you say "good-by" and
that you will come in another time
Do not accept an invitation to stay
unless you are very sure it is spon-
taneously meant and not the result
of having put your hostess in a po-
sition of being obliged to ask you
to stay.
5. "Is it ever proper to contradict
some one in the presence of others?'
Answer: 1t is never polite to con-
tradict any one at any time.
6. rs it true that when one en-
counters some one to whom he
hasn't spoken for months because of
a quarrel, in the house of friends
he has to talk to him just as though
nothing had happened between
them?"
Answer: If the conversation is
general their not speaking may not
be noticed. But If it is a formal
table at which people talk two and
two, it is absolutely obligatory that
those seated next each other, talk
to avoid blocking the whole table
If this meeting occurs in another
room, they naturally avoid sitting
together.
7. rs it rude to expect a girl
with whom one Is having a first date
to go to movie or to restaurant
by bus instead of taxi?"
Answer: Certainly not, unless the
man is known to be unusually we'll

Dorothy Dix Says

Dear Miss Dix: I am a childless
widower, thinking of marrying again,
and am faced with choice of two
very nice women One, who is my
own age, is a good manager and
housekeeper and a splendid cook,
but she has a teen-age child. The
other is a girl 20 years younger than
I am who apparently knows little
about home-making. have known
the girl only few months, while
the other one has been q. friend for
many years.
Where do you think my chance
for happiness lies? g.
Answer-I would say with the
widow, even If she is handicapped by
a teen-age child, which you may
consider only a temporary drawback,
for teen-agers soon grow up and
leave the home nest. I think that
age is one of the most important
factors in the success, or failure, of
a marriage. for we are all nodded by
our own times. Our habits, our
tastes, our opinions, all the things
that make people congelIial, belong
to our age, and We cannot change
them.

Moses knew what he was doing
when he included mint with the
herbs used for the Paschel Lamb
Every one likes mint sauce or mint
jelly with lamb-they are as much
of a twosome as applesauce with
pork, oranges with duck and corned
beef and cabbage.
Mint jelly, too, is very popular, but
nowadays is not too easy to find. You
may make your own mint sauce OF
you may buy wonderful one that is
put out by a famous food concern

vinegar. If you'd like to know the

ing a stamped, self-addressed enve-
lope with your request.
OF course, there are many other
ways to use mint than just as sauce
or jelly. Try few mint leaves in q
cold meat salad or use them in the
stuffng for a shoulder of lamb.
I don't need to remin you about
their Importance in mint julep, but
don't forget that they also do Won

tie water and sugar for 4 few min

with the tea. Use mint leaves to
garnish any lamb dishes instead OF
the usual parsley.
Chop and sift them over fruit cups,
halved grapefruit and citrus salads.
And for tall, frosted summer drinks,

compartment, to freeze fast in the

Bp the Chef

II y thc ~ Hty
Mint Is almost universal flavor
ing, at least one of the more than
twenty-five known species being
grown in the worlds temperate and
subtropical regions. The best known
to most of us, are spearmint, pepper
mint and pennyroyal. Spearmint,
which grows mostly around water or
in moist soil is the most popular for
table and beverage use, while pep
permint does its share in the produc-
ton of medicines as does pennyroyal.
The ancient Greeks used mint
leaves and extracted mint oils as
digestive aids. This custom was fol-
lowed later by the Romans and be-
came prevalent throughout the Near
East when that area was the center
of the civilized world. In the Bible
you will find references to mint. one
of them being its use as one of the
Bitter Herbs" served with the Pas
chal Lamb which was killed and
prepared by Moses. 1t is probab BILE
that mint was taken to Britain by
the Romans in their early days of
conquest. At least it seems certain
that the invaders taught the island
ers its value as a flavoring and di-
gestant.
Although plenty of mint had
grown wild for years in the United
States, it wasn't until about 1900
that its cultivation on a large COM
mercial scale was started. Quanti-
ties of the herb were planted on a
large tract of wasteland muck" in
southern Michigan and northern
Indiana that was not suitable for
farming, but which produced good
crop of wild mint. The wildcat
scheme paid off, for about 10000
acres of former muck land now are
producing a tremendous crop Of fine
fresh mint every year.

The girl who is 20 years younger
than you are will be her age. She
will want to play around and have
good times and dance and be sur
rounded by kids like herself. And
you will be your age. and you will

the fire with you and only step out
occasionally, and to whom you can

Also. widower will expect his
wife to be a good housekeeper and
cook and a thrifty manager, and
when you sit down to dinner that
would kill an ostrich and the bills
mount up, your child wife won't look

will look like an awful mistake.
A lot is to said in favor of widows
for wives. They have cut their wis
