Little Finis Hardiman II, OF
1926 E. Washington ST., enter
tanned his playmates in true West
ern fashion last Sunday afternoon
when he celebrated his sixth
birthday. He not only was attired
IN a Western outfit, the party
itself had a Western motif, and
his 43 guests loved every bit of it.
The birthday cake and ice cream
were gleefully accepted by the
cheerful group. Finis received some
very nice gifts from his little
friends.
They don't make much noise
about it, but the auxiliary
Eof the VF'W does some very
worthwhile things. Right now they
are sewing on bibs to be distrib-
uted to disabled veterans out at
the Veterans Hospital. There are
10 members and Mrs. Gladys Hun
ter of 1888 E. Monroe is the pres
ident.
L don't remember who coined the
phrase, kindness in another'S
trouble, courage in our oWn," but
would like to add that appre-
citation of that kindness is equally
important.
Mrs. Birdie Russell of 1888 East
jefferson St. had birthday party
March %, at which a delicious ham
dinner was served. Also on the
menu were two lovely birthday
cakes, one of which was made by
her son Dewitt Russell. The host

Westinghouse waffle iron, of the
very latest design. Those present

made needlepoint (about 2512x1t
Iinches) for? The design looks vel
the length and width of the piece
In designing my own sampler
OF cross stitch how. do transfer
design to cloth, getting the Xxx in
the right way Il couldn't find any
sampler help in the library?
should like to make Burns Grace
as one of the RICH ladies sug-
|gested.
I have a small old horsehair
trunk (19x10xS), lined with old
newspaper. It is a nice shape, but
the hair is off in spots and the
outside is not at all attractive
What could I do to it and what
could use it for? Would scrap
ing OF the horsehair and covering
with simple upholstery material or
painting it ruin its authenticity
or should I just toss it?"
Do you know of a place where
l can have a photograph copied,
as a portrait in oils or pastel,
reasonably? The picture is of
two children. Do the art schools
ever do this type of work? I
would like to have this for a
Christmas gift.
On the way back from Eastern
Canada We should like to stop for
a week or so at some small coastal
town in Northern New England.
Do you have any suggestions that
would help us with this problem?

to you. Then lift, plant them

ance. The Papanicolaou test Il
now used by many doctors. Ir
this a smear is taken to discover
whether or not cancer cells are
present.
So if your periods are appearing
too often, or If they are in one
way or another unusual, if you
have missed your periods for a
number of months ard then have
one, do not be frightened, but dc
be sensible and see your physician
Even if this is only part OF
menopause it can be controlled
with hormone therapy but this
must always be prescribed by a
doctor.
The gynecologist with whom
talked also advised women in the
menopause age group to have
examinations every six months
not because menopause causes
cancer but because women of
menopause age are also in the age
group in which cancer zooms. This
is purely smart preventive medi-
cine.
/ asked this eminent physician
Evening star., 1951-08-14
By Josephine Lowmon

With this menopause series in
mind had a talk recently with
one of New York's top gynecolo-
gistS. asked him what he con-
sidered to be the main miscon-
ceptionS and the important dam
gers of menopause. He answered
Women should not have unusual
or irregular bleeding at memo
pause. There is always a reason
for this and when they have it
they should Immediately go to a
physician to discover the reason.
Tell them that"
He went on to explain that
women often think irregularities
of all sorts are du- to menopause
if they are of that age. It may
be that the irregularity is due to
hormone imbalance but such an
experience can also come from
benign tumors or malignant ones.
Time is of the greatest import

from Mrs. B. T. c., Hyattsvile. }
My experience with tablets for
African violets has not been salts
factory. A Pink Lady had started
to bloom when a friend of mine
used some fertilizer tablet on it.
and now, after a year or more
has elapsed, it has never put out
a bud, but has grown as large
as dinner plate. I do not know
what brand of a tablet she used
but the plant has grown out OF
all proportion in size without
blooming. I recommend using one
scant teaspoon Of aluminium sui

water (warm water is better for
violets). Use this about once
every 10 days until the buds ap-
