Gay Kitchen Equipment Need Not Be Expensive

Iy lda Bailey Allen

The stunning store window stopped me short.

It featured kitchen and serving equipment in black. white and tin mium. with an occasional touch of bright color; reasonable in price. too. There were even black enameled coasters with a gay flower decoration to use un- der beverage glasses. at the un- thinkable price of s nickle apiece!

Of course. I stocked up.

Try Now Decor

If you are redecoiating your kitchen this spring. try a black and white decor with an occasion- al splash of color. White enamel ed ceiling and walls. Black base- boards. chair and table legs. The phenols of wooden cupboards lined

black, the inside walls in Chin-

; ese red. Black and white linoleum ' on the floor.

A new red tea kettle and set of red canisters. Kitchen curtains of white no-iron fabric with a black "doodle" design. A pot of red ger- aniums on the window sill. A gay red and white apron. You'll feel like spring!

Wonders If Marriage Would End Jealousy

DEAR MARY HAWORTH: I am a divorcee wit.h a child. I married at 21. mostly to escape an unhappy home. I realize now. I didn't know the man very well. and durin our marriage he had several afairs. finally running away with one of his girls.

Now. after is months' courtship. I am engaged to marry Clyde (I'll call him). He is in many ways a fine unselfish thoughtful person. who enloys outdoor life as I do. And he loves my child. However. he is L. jealous of my worksday associates-a trait that showed up after three months' dating.

As it happens. I am the only woman in a group of men. in the department where I work. and Clyde accuses me of being "too friendly." He sometimes says it jokingly, but underneath he is serious, I know.

Jealous liven of Strangers

Although we are together nearly every evening. he often imagines that a secret admirer of mine is in a car driving by e and he doesn't like me in wear high heels or earrings to work. This is a small thing and I don't mind humoring hirn-but I feel that such jealousy is unnatural and I wonder if you can help us.

We have discussed the matter and Jeff's manner has improved. But after marriage. what? Will his jealousy be magnified, or will it tend to disappea ? It would be heartbreaking to renounce our engagement after in months' as- sociation; but it would be even worse to go through with an- other unhappy marriage. ls this a problem that can be worked out? I have prayed and asked him to pray. E. N.

Self-Contempt Cripplcs Man

DEAR E. N'. Clyde's jealousy kl pathological. it seems. both in the sense of his "imagining things." and in the implication that he feels markedly inferior to average men. in the matter of rleaslng a woman or holding her ove.

in asking you not to wear high heels or earrings to work, he is trying to mark down your femin- ine appeal. on the theory that if men don't give you a second glance. he will stand a better chaos of having emotional se- entity in relation to you. which Iignifies that he has no confid- msce in himself: that he is ailing with self t i ',..

I-Ila fancy that you are bein trailed by secret admirers when

to uncover the supposed attempt to deceive him.

Problem Merits Grave inquiry

Unable to quell his doubts. he keeps putting his beloved to var- ious tests of honor. devotion and honesty, which sadly cripples the relationship. This is what you are going through; and what it means is that Clyde himself is emotion- ally unstable and weekly disposed towards undcrhanded actions. and nconaciously jumpy about his "guilty potentials." All of which he projects on others by constru- ing that they would react as he fears he might. in tempting cir- cumstances. .

It would be a colossal mistake to marry Clyde. with his prob- lem hanging fire. It is somewhat encouraging that you've been able to discuss the matter pacifically. and that he seems a bit improved. But still you were only easing symptoms. not getting at the cause of his distress. In my judg- ment. he needs intensive psychia- tric help to determine whether he can overcome the difficulty. And my advice is to delay marriage until you've both had the benefit of s specialist's slant on the fu- ture prospects. M. I.

use in 1-ans Are You Young For your Years?

I: Ida Jenn Kain

Just 0 hours till spring. Spring . . . there's a lifting word that won't stay on the ground. Since spring is a time of renewal. let's catch hold of some fresh ideas. it takes mental gymnastics to pull out of the rot and feel young- or than springtime . . .

oday. it's a natural to feel young for your years. The good news is that many of the com- monly accepted notions about physical changes that occur in later years are now discredited. For example. we frequently hear. "I'm too old to learn." Non-

sense! An intensive series of tests made to determine loss of learn- ing power revealed that the im- portant factors are interest and will to learn rather than ability to learn.

Interest -e there's a key word. Add enthusiasm to Interest and you have a perfect keeping young combination. I like Elsa Lancast- er's greeting to her husband Charles Laughton. "You look tir- ed out and 15 years younger." was her sprightly comment upon his return from an arduous but happy story telling tnur. Anyone in his audience could catch his enthusiasm and sense that this

T

versatile actor was having the time of his life. Boundless enthusiasm is a typi- cal characteristic of youth. Youth looks 'forward -- the best years are still ahead. That's the test. Do you feel that your best years are still ahead? "Man starts to get old, not when he puts on bifo- cals - but when he begins to dwell on the good old days." says Dr. Winfred Overholser. nation- ally known psychiatrist. "And." he added. "the more one thinks of himself as old. the more like- ly one is to accent the traits." The way to stay young most of your life is to be young all through middle age. By the way. what age do you term the middle period? It may be later than you think. From 40 to 65 is young- middle age. from 55 to 70 is still midde age the latter half. Young old age is reckoned at 70 plus, and old age from 95 on. How young you will be at 70 depends a great deal on your food habits from. 40 on. Aging is a process of wearing out and tear- ing down. The foods which furn- ish the material to make good the wear and tear and promote the smooth functioning of the body will keep you young longer. These are called protective for they pro- tect against the ailments that hast- en old age. Check this list to see if you are staying physically young. Do you have these foods daily? For pro- tein and tissue repair: a liberal serving of lean meat. fish or fowl. with a meat organ once a week; a pint of milk; and l or 2 eggs. For body regulating materials and needed vitamins: green and yel- low vegetables plus a salad with dark green leafy vegetables; fruits. including a citrus fruit or juice; and whole grain cereal or bread and butter. These are the protective foods -- and they are

More generous use of suds is in- dicated than with other launder- ing.

Rayon quilts should be hand- washed in lukewarm suds. wring them as little as possible and let them drip dry. Hang quilts on parallel lines a foot or so apart. square the corners with your fin- gers while they're still wet; re- verse their position and shake them occasionally while they're drying. and they'll come through all smooth and fluffy.

Blankets can be machine- :. ed - if they are done with speed and caution. Carefully follow in- struction book for your machine.

if you hand wash blankets, dip them up and down in lukewarm lands and rinses. A rubber plunger helps to force the suds and clean water 6 k repeatedly. Avoid rubbing. twisting or wringing.

Hang blankets in shade over parallel clothesllne a foot or two apart. and out of high wind. When partially dry. fingerpress edges and brush for fluff appeal,

when storing. wrap blankets in paper or plastic. sealed securely against dust. Place on top of any pile on shelf to prevent crushing.

"Each season has its own parti- cular beauty" one writes in an American farm-paper. "the frosty moonlight of winter. the greening of spring. moonlight on a cstalpa tree in bloom. the drowae and peace of the growing landscape. a waterfall over the rimrock after a summer shower. the greens and golds and reds of autumn. No doubt other farm folk get as much 'lift' from the farm horizons of the prairie land or the endless rows of the corn lands as I do from the moun- tains." -

"There must be a subconscious longing for quiet in all of us" the writer continues. "Nearly every one of our visitors from the city. at some time during their visit will say. "My. but it's quiet' or 'It's so stlll' or 'I envy you this peacefulness.' Even darkness in the city is something of which to be wary; here in the country it hides little cause for fear; it only makes the stars shine brighter. And who can look at a sky full of stars without sensing the Creation? . . We country folk must definitely have problems and worries Just as try-

ing as are those of our city cous- ins but at least we have the op- portunity to work them out in peace and quiet."
