Let me suggest that this ship done in cross-stitch has another scope and charm. as it does also when developed with beads. It is distinctly for sil- | houette work. That is, the ship, salls, hull, masts and all, should be done in one color; the background, as indl- | cated, in another; the only variation 1' m this being to make the hull, ts and prow of one color, with the salls of another against the back. ground.

C, TUESDAY, -JUNE 22, SUB ROSA BY MIMI “Lazy” Friends. s have on our list friends? A great many, Tl bet y do you always Icall Eelanor up?’ Janet's mother asked her. “She never calls you from one end of the year to the other.| Yet you're alw after her. Let her‘ come to vou if she wants to see you. “Oh, mother, you don't understand Eleanor's peculiar temperament.” Janet told her parent crisply. “She’s just too lazy to call anybody up. She’s tickled to death to hear from me| or to see me, but she simply hasn't | the energy to call me. There are lots of people like that in the world.” So Janet continues to pursue Bleanor and the latter allows herself to be pursued. But Eleanor has one friend of whom she's very fond, Valerie Anderson. Val is rather “lazy” herself and Eleanor has to do all the calling there. It would never in the world occur to Eleanor to call Janet. She knows that young lady will turn up in due course. But in her sincere desire to see Valerie she does her part to keep up the friend- ship. Angela bewalls her fate—that she should have the hard luck to fall in love with a man llke Tommy. ““He’s simply hopeless,”” she tells her friends. I kncw he's dying to see me—that he's really in love with me— but he just hasn’i the ambition to make dates or call me up now and then. I have to do it all. T wouldn't do it for any other man." But Tommy's different, He's natu. rally lazy, and there's no use “getting sore at him.” Tom and Angela may marry some day. If they do, Angela will have arranged that, teo. But if Tommy falls madl) in love | he'll get over being “lazy.’ i The friends and sweethearts we de- | cide are “lazy,” in order to soothe our own wounded feelings, are usually just rather indifferent. They may be fond of us in a dull sort of way—they may be perfectly willing to see us when we pursue them—but they can't be genuinely keen about us or there would be some effort on their part. If Janet just left Eleanor severely alone—never called her—never made any attempt to see her—she'd very soon find out the depth of Eleanor's affection for her. The chances are that Eleanor wouldn't ever see her again—wouldn’t think about her dis- appearance much. And Angela, I'm afraid, would find, to her disconfiture, thaut Tommy was living comfortably enough without her if she just stopped chasing him and made him do all the work. When we like people very much. and want them to like us, we're so quick to make up excuses for them. And we're so eager to believe the ex- cuses we make. There's no such thing as a friend who's “simply too lazy to call us up.” If he or she is too lazy for that, then we're kidding ourselves when we use the word “friend.” Cross out the word “lazy.” Substi- tute the word “indifferent’’ and you've probably got the truth.
