By Rikki

So you're going to a party?
Grab your hat and let's go. The
bus isn't due for a few minutes
SO let's go over our list and see
what's on the list OF manners.
One thing to remember, we are
ladies and Gentlemen, so don't
forget to go in and say hello
to your guest parents. 1t won't
take but a minute and I'm sure
that it will be an everlasting
impression on the parents and
they still deserve respect even in
this day and age. After all, If
it wasn't for them YOU kids
wouldn't be having such a good
time.
Now well go into the parlor
and see who's who from where,
and what's the latest news?
Gosh, that music is groovey,
puts you in the mood for dane
ing, doesn't it? Well, friend,
did we come for dancing or are
you going to be a fly on the wall?
She may not appeal to you. You
won't know until you go over
and see for yourself; after all
don't judge a book by its cover.
So you've just had two lovely
dances with the most popular
boy in town and along comes
complex Joe and all of a sudden
you find yourself tired? What's
your tact if he asks you for
dance? If you're an intelligent
little lassie this should be your
answer:
I'm terribly sorry but I don't
care to dance this one so how
about getting me a glass of
punch" "It's proper, if you re-
fuse one dance to refuse the
other in order not to cause any
embarrassment on anyone's part.
And one other important thing
to remember is to watch THAT
CLOCK. If the young lady has
to be home by IL be sure to
have her there, and if she's shy
to mention the fact of her dead
line hour Just mention it to
her. So all's we'll that ends well.
Since you are the hostess or
host let's serve the gang some
thing new in the line of food,
Here is a time saver;
Valentine Open-Face Sandwich
One slice Of bread toasted, one
slice OF American Cheese, ont
slice Of tomato and Y slice o.
bacon, fried. Place in the order
as read. Place in the oven until
the cheese melts or in a broiler
until brown. To serve IL people
you need to buy a pound OF
cheese, one pound of tomatoes,
and one pound of bacon The
punch is important also, so
either color 1t with grenadine
syrup (saves on sugar. or cut
small pieces Of fruit into punch
bowl and you will have a sur
prisingly tasty punch.
Hope you have a wonderful
evening and remember those few
rules and you will be fine. See
you next week.

ESSAY FOR THE WEEK

| do not love him because he is
good, but because he is my little
child.
How should you know how

When I must punish him, he

my being,
When cause his tears to come,
my heart weeps with him.
! alone have a right to blame

chastise who loves.
TOPIC OF THE WEEK-'Boys
and Girls-The Most Important
People In the World
Back of every man is the boy
that made him; back of every
woman is the girl she was. The
most important people in the
world aare the boys and girls In
their teens. 1t is they who settle
all the great questions of life.
What are the great questions?
They are not the tariff, money
matters, the election of mayors
and presidents. These are super
fetal issues. The great matters
are; What calling are you going
to follow? What woman are YOU
going to marry? What are YOU
going to do with your ideals?
What will you do with the sex
instinct? What will be your phil
osophy of life-wil1 you be sen
sual, material, egoistic or altruis-
TIC, and a lover of right and beau
ty? All these subjects are dis
posed Of by the children under
twenty. Did you ever think up
on the curious fact that the hap
piness of this world is in the
hands of the boys and girls? 1t
Is the boy that selects the trade
or profession the man has to fol-
low. 1t is the girl who chooses
the husband the woman has to
put up with all her life. 1t is
the child that, as a rule deter
mines the religion the adult must
adhere to until death or be called
an infidel. If a man of forty Sc

our fellowman. Come on Villag-
ers, let's get acquainted with all
of our neighbors.

ed in the basement Of Building

boy of twenty picked out for
him, he is considered a turncoat.
When we remember that the most
weighty, important, and fateful
issues are in the control of the
children, it is amusing to see
the airs grown people give them
selves, when in but a few years
they will be shelved, sitting
around clubs "reminiscing,"
smoking in the chimney-corner,
basking in the sun at the Old
Peoples Home, or getting up at
4:30 to do nothing at all. About
all a man does after twenty-one
is to try to realize a little of what
he conceived before that age. All
of Caesars conqusts, Webster's
eloquence, Gladstone's statecraft,
and Thorwaltsen's art was but
the outcropping of what they
each had seen in the vision of
youth. A grown man never has
a great idea" that cannot be
traced back to youth. And we
treat young people as though
they were negligible, they and
all they say and do and feel. We
loook on the age between ten and
twenty as sort of interlude of
life. Their babyhood was ours,
their manhood is their own, their
teenhood is nothing. But what
happens to a boy, and inside
boy, about the age of coming
sexconsciousness is of more i'm
portance than anything that may
happen before or after. There is
no need to draw wrong conclu-
sionS from this, to lock your CHILD
up and feed him with spoon,
and try to keep him out of harm
by tyranny, but there is need to
remember that it is when in their
teens that boys and girls need
more love, more companionship,
more sympathy, and more atten-
ton than they ever needed be-
fore or will need again. Youth
holds that inestimable treasure
the rest of us have lost, that one
priceless, intoxicating treasure
the future.
