Muskmelon seed cannot be
started outside until the weather
and soil are warm, so for an
extra early crop, especially in
areas where the season normally
is late. seeds should be started in
the hot-bed. When a hot-bed is
not available, start them indoors
in a window box, inverted sods,
old strawberry boxes or paper
cups.
Muskmelons, like cucumbers
resent being transplanted. there

Y We, The Women
BY RUTH

BY RUTH MILLETI
Her 14-yeac-old daughter want.
ed to have a party for her crowd
in the basement rumpus room.
So She checked to see that there
were plenty of dance records, out
did herself on refreshments, and
prepared herself for a noisy, jit
ter-bugging party in the basement.
But soon after all the guests ar
rived. they turned out the lights
and settled down for an evening
of necking.
The mother did not turn on the
lights because she was afraid she
would embarrass her daughter
and be regarded as an old fuddy-
buddy by her daughters friends.
This isn't an isolated case
Enough such incidents are being
reported to me by mothers who
profess not to know how to handle
the situation, that is must be quite
a common problem.
The line of the protesting parent
is always the same: What can ]
do when other parents let them
get away with these parties?"
The first thing to do is quit Wor
rying the teenage crowd and being
a good sport in their eyes. Isn't it
better to have teenagers think you
are strict than to have them size
you up as an easy mark?
The next thing is to get the
parents of the whole teenage crowd
together and agree on a few
standards for home parties.
After all, it's pretty ridiculous
to think that a bunch of teenagers
can outsmart their elders and get
them so mixed up in their think
ing they can't stick to their guns.

and intends to remain in New York.
Before the war, RUG was con-
nected with Royal Netherlands SIS
Company, as a skipper Of a mer-
chant vessel, plying between Hol-
land and Spain with cargoes OF
fruit. When the war ended he re-
turned to his career, and took COM.

paratively new ship and shipped
cargo from the West Indies to New
York.
The Gordias is a ship with
record in the annals of war also.
Laying at the Quitting docks in
Rotterdam, after a short tour of
duty with the steamship company,
she was seized by the Germans in
the invasion, and quickly commits
stoned as a troopship. operating be.
tween Germany and Norway. On
We day, she was at anchor in

the Royal Netherlands company,

his abiding place.
While under the present law con-
sent of the next of kin-no matter
how far removed through years

grave, the new act requires the con-

trouble often arose when a church
planned an addition to it's building
and found that graves were in The
way. This problem occurred in Viii
mington when st. James church
had to obtain permission from the
next of kin Of over 20 long buried
corpses before its new construc-
ton could begin.
When the next of kin is being
sought it frequently results in try
ing to locate 5 or 20 distant nirth
cousins, who may never have heard
of Uncle Abner who was buried IN
Plumnelly in 1874.
In conclusion let us say that this
deviation from the old "Rest IN

prevent repetition OF the Inflated
