WOMAN’S PAGE' Arranging the Christmas Greens BY LYDIA LE BARON WALKER. The fashion for giving Christmas that costs somewhat more, such as greens in lieu of other presents is a boon to many & perplexed woman. For one thing, the greens can be THERE SHOULD BE PLENTY OF HOLLY BERRIES OR OTHER GAY NOTES OF COLOR IN WITH THE GREEN. holly with berries, mistletoe and bay- berry, with their splashes of color and contrast, If one has an auto and can get into the country, and gather pine cones from under some branching tree, these can be painted with gold, bronze or other metal paints, or with red and other brilliant ofl colors. No ob- jection to gathering pine cones from wooded sections would arise, although | gathering sprays of green from the | trees would not be right without per- mission from the authorities. The metal paints will dry immedi- ately, but the oils will- require more time. After the cones, or pods, that can thus be made ornamental, such | as milk weed pods, are colored, they can be given stems by twisting one end of rather stiff wire through and about the lower part of a cone, leaving an end of several inches. Pods may not need wire stems, but can be bound by wire in position among the greens. It is for this purpose that the wire stems to cones are needed, as well as to make them stand upright in baskets and bouquets. Tiny cones in red are like wee flames of torches, or resembie candles, according to the way they are used. Grasses can be dipped in red or other stain, to supply color. Popped corn also can be so stained and a single kernel tip an end of wire, or five can be arranged about a central kernel like a futuristic flower. It will be remembered that such use of -cran- berries has been mentioned. The woman who delights in hand- some and attractive Christmas dec- orations is sure to welcome a gift of Christmas greenery, for there is never an oversupply. However much she may have, there is always some spot that can be made gay and festive by the addition of such appropriate dec- orations. (Copyright, 1928.) DAILY DIET RECIPE RAW CARROT MOLD.

How many husbands, and wives do you know "who procrastinate about &ngs which require immediate atten- n? Young couples may be heard to say: “Oh, we have no time to save. We'll spend what we have now and enjoy life. Later on we cannot enjoy the things we do now, and then it will be time enough to save.” Unfortunately, two facts contradict the promise of future saving, First of all, thrift or thriftlessness becolae fixed habits.

So, after rack- ing her brain and thumbing her cook books, Nancy decided on stuffed prunes and dates as the kinds of sweets best suited for little children. Her book did not suggest stuffed apricots, but she saw no reason why they could not be used as well. She purchased large prunes, a package of dates, a box of raisins, a good quality dried apricots, candied citron, orange and lemon peel. First she washed prunes, apricots and dates in boiling water. Then she put them in a steamer and steamed them until they were plump and softened. She carefully removed the' pits and stones. The raisins, peels and part of the prunes were chopped coarsely. A little orange juice was mixed with them to make a paste soft enough to handle easily. ‘Lhen the cavities in the prunes and dates and the apricot halves weg: stuffed with these fruits. In a few of them she put a half marshmallow and set the stuffed fruit back in the steamer just long enough to soften the marsh- mallow. It completely filled the open- ing and proved an attractive contrast in color. Not only Joan, but Uncle Peter, enjoyed these sweets. Never is it more necessary to watch a child’s diet than at holiday time.

I am at my wits end to know what to do with a hard-boiled little flapper in our office who hasn't been there but a month, but who thinks she knows it all and makes some pert and impudent reply to every one wh tries to correct her. She doesn’t wear enough clothes for common decency. - She treats every one with the utmost familiarity and calls every man in the office, n0 mattéf what his age or his position, by his first name. Apparently there is not a “Mr.” in her vocabulary, and I am daily expecting to hear her address our august president as “Jack” or “Johnny Boy.” This girl is poor and needs the money and I hate to fire her, but I shall have to do so unless she can learn that there is an etiquette in the businss world as well as the social. BUSINESS MAN. Answer: Why do ‘you not call your little hoodlum into your office and have a real heart-to-heart talk with her, and tell her that unless she minds her manners she is going to lose her job? Believe me, she is sinning through ignorance and not through intent. She thinks that her free and easy ways are ingratiating, that her freshness is wit, and she hasn’t a doubt that when she drapes herself over a desk and snuggles up to a man she is vamping according to the best method used in the latest movies that she saw. Business men have & curlous reluctance to telling their woman .employes honestly and frankly of their faults. They prefer to dismiss tl on some trumped-up charge. This is grievously unjust to a girl, for 99 times out of 100 she would be glad enough to correct her mistake if she only knew what it was. I once asked a man why he had let & particularly comre'ent stenographer 0, and he replied: “Because she dressed too well. She always looked like a million dollars.

I hadn't the nerve,” he replied, “but you bet the next one I pick out hasn't a bead or a {rill on her.” So there you are. Certainly you will be doing a missionary work if you make this little girl understand that a business girl should be dressed like a business girl and not like a soclety debutante at & pink tea or a member of the Follies chorus, and that the more dignified and reserved she is the more respect she will command, and that it isn't etiquette to call men by their first names in an office. No doubt at home she rules the roost and is the final authority on every subject, and that is why she thinks she knows more about the business than men who have been in it for years. what the matter was and give her a chance to “Why didn’t you tell her that being overdressed If you can deflate her head a little you will do her & permanent service, for there is no one else on earth so opinionated and so cocksure of herself as a spoiled young girl who is the family pet and beauty.

EAR DOROTHY DIX: I stay with my aunt and uncle, who are sending me through high school and who give me anything I want. I try to please them, but they still think I do not do enough and are always cross to me. I would hate to go back home, as my father is always drunk and mean to my mother, So I am very undecided on what to do. I am only 16 and need some one to advise me. ECIDED, Answer: There is only one plece of advice that any well-wisher could give you, my child, and that is to stay where you are and make the most of your opportunities. Try to realize how kind and generous your uncle and aunt are to take you out of a miserable home and give you an education, and comfortable aurroundu‘llr and pretty clothes. It costs a lot to support a girl, and but for them you would have nothing, so you can't be grateful enough to them, or try hard enough to please them. Remember that they are in no wise bound to do this for you. They do it out of their affection and sympathy for you. Su they do try to control you? Suppose their ideas are a little strict and old-fashioned? Suppose they do scold you a little? - That is all as nothing compared to what they give you and what they save you from. Just think how miserable you would be at home with a drunken father who would probably beat you as well as be cross to you. You will soon be through high school. Then, perhaps, your good aunt and uncle will give you some sort of a technical education that will fit you to make & good-living. Perhaps they will give you a business course, or a course in beauty culture, or in dressmaking, or millinery, or salesmanship—something that will enable you to be free and independent and earn good money. Keep that in mind as your goal, and the time will go by quickly. Keep in mind all that you owe to your aunt and uncle. That is a debt of honor that you can only repay with love and gratitude and by deferring to their wishes. DOROTHY DI (Copyright, 1928.) BEDTIME STORIE off I shall be.

How to Play Contract Bridge BY MRS. FORTESQUE Every bid in contract has & meaning. A bid of one shows better than average strength; & bid of two shows a pow- erful hand; a bid of three or more shows length with six or more cards in_the suit bid. Every no trump bid is made with the expectation of playing the hand at no trumps; every major suit is bid with the expectation of playing the hand at that major suit. But every minor suit is bid with the expectation that the partner will shift the bid, not raise it. What, then, is the difference between a major and a minor suit bid of one? Only this—the suit itself need not hold as great strength as should be held in a major. What is the difference be- tween a major and a minor suit bid of two? None—they both show strength throughout the hand as well as one quick trick in the suit bid. What is the difference between a three bid of a major and & minor? ‘There is a major shows length—a. six or seven card sult, with or without top honors. A minor three bid shows lengts and mlx’t honors—ace, king, queen, & éet-up suit. A bid of one, two or thres 13 8 major sult asks for a raise if possible; a bid of one, two or three in a minor suit asks for a shift if possible. There is a convention that has re- cently been Introduced into contract bridge—the Vanderbilt club bid. Mr. Harold Vanderbilt was one of the orig- inators of contract bridge. It was he who modified the foreign game of “Plafond” and adopted the present con- tract score. It is he who inaugu- rated the bid of “one club” as a first indication to the partner that the bid- der's hand* contains great strength. “One club,” meaning “Partner, I hold four quick tricks. I hold a probable game hand and a likely slam if you also have values. On my mext bid I will show you where this strength lies. My club bid is merely to forewarn you of my great strength and to ask you if your hand is above average.” If the second hand pass, the partner of the club bidder must respond. Hold- ing two quick tricks, he replies with a bid indicating where this strength lies; holding less than two quick tricks, he must deny top strength by a bid of “one diamond.” Even should the partner hold, for example, seven spades to the ace, queen, with no outside strength, he must bid “one diamond.” The hand does not contain two quick tricks, and therefore the weakness bid of one dia- mond is mandatory. The spade suit can be shown only on the subsequent round of bidding. Let us say that the bidding has been “One club”; “Pass”; “One diamond”; “Pass.” It is around again to the orig- which places the strength, A indicates general strength, a better than average length, three great length. It is t bid which the partner must raise or shift with one quick trick. Nine times out of ten, the partner's reply to the original “one club” is “one diamond.” The real suit is developed on the subsequent round. It is the one time out of ten when the ¢lub bid is of greatest benefit. -The reply of any declaration save one diamond guar- antees two quick tricks. With the strength held by the original club bid- der—four quick tricks—and the strength shown by the partner-—two quick tricks —there lies a certain game in the hand, and the probability of a slam. With this known strength, the bidding should bandy back and forth between the two partners until the best bid in the two hands is assured—a game bid surely, a slam bid if the two hands fit. These are the hands that made the Vander- bilt club convention worth including in the system of contract bidding.
