infatuation? My own friends natu-
rally know of my love for Monty,
but nobody knows how far that love
carried us before my mothers
death. Even by my old French serv-
ant that is not suspected. There
would be no danger of betrayal.
And it would be so good to get rid
of this continual gnawing pain of
cheated love-"
My answer to Adele is that she
has been too much alone; she has
been cheated out of life by far more
than Monty's coldness. She has
lived in cocoon; now it is time to
wake up and spread her wings. Her
isolated years with her invalided
mother, her unhappy love affair,
have perhaps warped her a little,
and made simple human living
seem a complicated and fearful
thing.
Deluding Self.
Two facts in your case are OBJ
vious, Adele. You are deludine
yourself with your ideal of Monty.
He isn't worth it. A few months of
marriage to him would convince
you of his selishness, shallowness
and general undesirability.
The second fact is that Philip
needs you, and offers you a chance
to make yourself loved and service
able-two tremendously important
elements in summing up 'woman's
happiness. Since you are COM
pletely self-deceived about MONTY,
you may well be so about Philip; he
may prove far more satisfactory
husband than you imagine him to
be. Your care of the two small
motherless girls will win his devo-
ton; your new position, name,
home, responsibilities may well fill
your hungry heart. Altogether,
would advise this marriage, and
would confidently predict that it will
be success. Put that earlier affair
out of your thoughts, with childish
follies and school mistakes, and 90
straight ahead into a dignified and
useful career.
The violent passion you felt for
Monty is thing that never lasts. It
never has and it never will, except
in the imaginations of certain men
and women who have nursed the
shadow of it in loneliness and dis
appointment. All marriages fade
into the bright commonplace light
of everyday living. Living with any
one human being is just as hard as
living with any other. Your pros
poets with Philip seem to me far
better than any with Monty ever
would have been.

Make Good Use of Fabric Scraps
By Doing Attractive Quilting
by &,tta Haley

lust looking at an attractive quilt
- sometimes we wonder how
someone ever had the patience to
sit down and finish it, but women
who do lot of quilting will tell you
there's lots of satisfaction in max
ing one.
In the first place, a well-made and
pretty quilt is an asset to the SIM
plest bedroom. It may form the
focal point of the whole room and
set the theme. Then, too, quilts do
not wear out readily if they are well
constructed, and we have the salts
faction of looking at them for years
to come.
And last, but by no means least,
there are so many good looking
pieces of material that find their
way into the rag bag, it's a shame
not to use them for something so
permanently lovely as quilt. Dig
them out, and let's see just what
you can do.
Before making a quilt, decide on
what type you want to- have. The
traditional English quilt has layer
Of padding between two pieces of
fabric. All three are held in place
by tiny stitches in close or open de-
signs that form puffs Of fabric.
If you follow the Italian tradition
Of quilt making, you will not use
padding until fabric and lining are
completed. A heavy padding yarn
Is then run between the two layers
Of the design.
Quilting frequently is done by
machine these days, as the work
goes faster, naturally. However, if
you prefer, the background may be
machine-stitched and the design
worked by hand. One often sees
straight rows of stitching, or stitch
ing spaced in squares, lattice, trellis
or sunburst effects.
For machine quilting straight
lines are most desirable. The pres
sure foot or the cording foot may
be used for straight lines or for
curved designs.
Fabrics Unlimited
For Quilts .
Any type of material may be used
for quilts. If you are making some-
thing for summer, it would be best
to work in cotton, as these make
beautiful quilts. White sheeting or
muslin may be used as the basic
fabric and color introduced in the
joining of contrasting fabrics.
Quilt Innings are usually of sheet
ing or velveteen. Cotton batting is
used for lining.

of the quilt to the muslin at the
edge of the frame and clamp.

OF the quilt to the muslin at the
edge of the frame and clamp.
In the English type of quilting you
may push the needle straight
through the design and bring it back.
However, in outline stitch, you must
work on the wrong side. French
knots or chain stitches may be in
troduced into the pattern.
When you have finished working
the pattern, turn the edges of the
lining and outside fabric so they
face each other There are several
different types of edge finishing that
may be used such as plain stitching
and slip-stitching. The edges may
even be piped or corded.
Another attractive edge finish is
the scallop, but this naturally is a
little more complicated and will
take extra time.
You also may stitch several rows
and keep them evenly spaced. Then
run soft cord through them for
nice effect.

DDT Can Harm Pets

Cautioning dog and cat owners in
the use of DDT to combat feas on
their pets, American Veterinary
Medical association says the insec-
ticide can cause fatal illness in
household animals unless it is used
with strict care. Cats are said to
be especially susceptible to the poi
soning because of their habit of
licking.
"Never use oily solutions Of DDT
on the animals body" the associa-

The thread used for quilting must
be very fine and of a color matching
the quilt. Sewing cotton, twisted en-
broidery floss, or silk may be used,
but the color must be sunfast.
If you are making a quilt for a
bed, you will need a frame for the
quilt. This may be made at home
or purchased. Smaller articles such
as pillow covers, table covers, etc.,
may be quilted on an embroidery
frame.
Quilting Procedure
Easy to Follow
Before you can attach your ma
terial to the quilting frame, decide
upon your fabric and design. Here's
the way you work from there:
Trace the design of the pattern on
the outside of the fabric if you are
going to use backstitch. If you are
going to work on the back of the lin
ing, use backstitch.
Now it's time to lay out the fabric,
lining and padding. These may be
placed on a large table or on the
floor. The lining and padding are
not sewed together, but rather are
held in place by the tacking. The
edges should be pinned all the way
around and set in the frame. If a
frame is not used, the edges are
pinned and basted.
The fabric, lining and interlining
should not be allowed to slip. The

Nothing is so important in to-

They are ideal for crepes.

Soil Compositions

Soil consists of accumulations Of
mineral particles varying in size
from boulders to ultra-microscopic
clay grains, with void spaces con-
tanning air or water or both be-

times the soil contains an admix-
ture of organic materials.

and leftover bits of meat or fish.
Cover the top with mashed pota-

pie is hot through and Drowned

them all together. This may be
done by machine, If desired, using
an open stitch that follows the back

Stassen Throws
 Hat In The Ring

WASHINGTON, (P)-Harold E. Stassen announced yesterday he will enter the Wisconsin Presiden- tial preference primary next April in his quest for the Republican Presidential nomination.
 The former Minnesota governor also told a news conference that he will make a major speech in Milwaukee November 24. He de- scribed this as his opening address in his campaign for the Republi- can nomination.
 StasSen said that committee activ- ity in Wisconsin has indicated that slates of delegates will be presented in the April primary on behalf of Governor Thomas E. Dewey of New York and General Douglas MacArthur, but that in neither case has there been any authorization" from those two.
 While Stassen was absent from the country in the 1914 campaign, a partial slate was entered for him in Wisconsin and he recalled that they won three or four convention seats. Dewey however walked off with the great majority of them.

.V-2 Rocket Fired
 In Secret Navy Test By Carrier At Sea
Continued from Page One)

'COntlnued rom PdSe One) the captured missiles.
 The firing from the 45,000-ton Midway was witnessed by "lead- ing military and civilian person nel in the field of guided miss iles," the navy said.
 It added that immediately after the launching, the MidWay's air craft took off to complete the dem onstration of the feasibility of combining rocket and aircraft in warfare
 The navy gave no indication of what notifications were required on the Midway to launch the V-2. Here are some considerations, however:
 The Midway class carrier has a deck of heavy armor plate, and thus would be well equipped to hold the weight of the missile and to withstand the heat at launch ing.
 The hot blast of the rocket would obviously be serious problem, Wich the navy may have solved by locating the launcher near the deck edge and sending the blast into the sea.
 Because of it's mass the Midway rides steadily, and when it does pitch and roll the motion is slow It would be possible to launch with reasonable accuracy from the deck, as some officers said privately they believed was done. However, for wartime purposes, the launching platform could be gyroscopically controlled as are the carriers guns.

Army-Navy Heads Favor Govt Aid
 Metals Production

SEATTLE, Wash, -(P)-High ranking officers on the United States Army-Navy munitions board now favor government aid for production of metals partic- ularly vital in wartime, Leverett Davis, Boise, Idaho, told a con- gressional subcommittee on min ing Monday.
 Davis, veteran engineer for the Callahan Zinc-Lead Company, said that during recent consulta- tions with board members in Washington he learned the inter- national situation is so uncertain that the board members urgently want the additional metal pro- duction. Not only for Stock-pil- ing but to place the mining indus try in condition to produce heav- fly in time of war.
 Chairman w. H. Stevenson, Wisconsin, and M. w. Powell, ex- ecutive director, called the wit ness into secret session after the public hearing was over.

COP Defeats Democrat
 In Pennsylvania

ALLENTOWN, Pa. (P)-Repub- lican Franklin H. LichtenWalter has retained for COP forces Penn sylvania's eighth district seat in Congress, soundly defeating a la bor-supported Democratic oppon- ent in a special election that had as it's central issue the Taft-Hart- ley labor law.
 LichtenWalter, speaker of the state house of representatives, was chosen to represent the rich in dustrial and farming district of Lehigh and Bucks counties over Democrat Phil H. Storch, presi- dent of the CIO-Lehigh valley newspaper guild.
 With only one of the PA pre- cincts missing, LichtenWalter had pulled up a bigger margin of vic tory than his predecessor, the late Charles J. Gerlach, did in three previous elections.
 The new congressman had re- ceived 47,5l2 votes to Storch's 29,967. The total registration in the district was 73,000 Republi- cans and 46,OOO Democrats.
 Despite Lichtenwalter's victory his supporters and the packers o1 Storch took differing post-electior views on the results.
 G. Mason Owlett, Republican n i on al committeeman from Pennsylvania, declared in a state. ment that the vote twas a smash. ing rebuke to the radical labor bosses who chose to make the Hartley labor management act the paramount issue of the election"
 Lichtenwalter-who will fill the unexpired term of the late Charles L. Gerlach, five times Republican winner of the Congressional seat in expressing appreciation for "this vote of confidence" said:
 Your vote definitely reflects your decision on the issues of this campaign"
 Meanwhile, a statement issued by the united labor division of the Storch-for-Congress commit and signed by officials of unions affiliated with the CIO, AFL and railroad brotherhoods, said:
 I've carried seven of the eight wards Gin Allentown where we concentrated our forces. We've just begun to fight. We don't con- sider the vote as a repudiation on the Taft-Hartley labor law issue"

Unions Threaten Third Round Of Wage Hikes

CHICAGO, (P)-The AFL ex- ecutive council hinted today that a third round of postwar wage de- mands could be expected if the cost of living continues to mount.
 Wage boosts were granted to most major unions in the first year after VI day. Generally, they amounted to about 1872 cents an hour. A second increase, ranging from II to l512 cents hourly was passed on to most big unions this spring and summer.
 The IS top AFL officers said the wage hikes were inadequate to keep pace with prices.
 Initiation has now assumed alarming proportions, the coun- cil said. "The purchasing power of the wage-earners' dollar has been cut in half since the war. Food prices are now bursting through the roof. Economists are predict ing a dollar dozen eggs and dol lar pound butter. Meat is going to be more scarce and expensive Substitute foods, because of in- creasing demand, will also shoot upward.
 Unless the cost of living is promptly reduced and stabilized pressure for higher wages is cer- l tain to mount"
 AFL president William Green said restoration of the OPA was out of the question, as was a spe- cial session of Congress to clamp new controls on some commodi- ties, as proposed by a CIO com mittee.
 The council advocated, instead:
 l. Immediate revision of our foreign export commitments, linn iting help under the Marshall plan to those nations willing to coop crate with us for the preservation of world peace"
 2. Encouragement of increased industrial and agricultural pro- duction.
 3. Expansion of transportation facilities to move the increased production.
 The railroad car shortage is the chief obstacle to transportation, Green said, and railroads should be enabled to acquire new rolling stock.
