WOMA Dainty Dishes for. One’s Friends - BY LYDIA LE BARON WALKER. When visiting a friend who is ill, it is a pleasure to take some delicacy that can be relished by the invalid. It is not always easy to think just what to take, and so the suggestions given today may be helpful. They are chosen THE ORANGE BASKET IS EASY TO MAKE. especially because the cost is slight and because the articles are easy to pre- pare. Some require thoughtfulness rather than special preparation. It id wise to find out from the family if the MOVIES AND HOLLYWOOD, Calif., April 16— ‘Whether you know your poets or not, there's no use denying that a great deal of half-gods going and gods arriving is taking place in Movieland. If the outgoing are to bear the label “half-gods,” then Emil Jannings will be included among them, for he leaves Hollywood soon to resume work with the UFA company, whence he came. To most of the thinking public Emil Jannings has been one of the gods of cinemadom. He is acclaimed one of the big artists of pantomime in Holly- wood. And that is much, for profes- sional Movieland is so tied up with per- sonal grudges, jealousies and currents of various kinds that a consensus of opinion on a man's qualifications gen- erally stamps that man as great. Men who were great artists in the old medium may prove less than great in this new one, for talking pictures are a separate art. And to make them with nothing but the old technique is fatal, just as an absolute stage technique is unwise, too. So Jannings of the many characteri- zations, Jannings who has had much to say in his studio about what he should play and how he should play it, will return to his native land. The great, ugly Talmadge house on Hollywood boulevard, one of the most inartistic piles in the colony, will see the genial German no more. The hearty dinners and great seidels of beer will be a thing of the past. Palpably Jannings is going for an “indefinite leave of absence,” but his close friends know the truth, and an “indefinite leave” on the eve of his first talkie picture tells the knowing all they need to hear. Emil Jannings couldn't conquer the accent which would limit him after one or two talkies were made. Accent, to be much of an asset in drama, must be picked up and dropped at will, else ver- satility is dropped permanently. So far, with the exception of Mary Pickford, movie artists have proved in- different purveyors of talk. Jeanne Eagles has made the best talkie to date. Close behind for voice work comes Ruth Chatterton. Irene Stanwick is out here, ready to begin, and other legitimates are i bed of the green and place the mixed MOVIE PEOPLE BY MOLLIE MERRICK.

It makes an at- tractive dessert also for the family. Now, while oranges are seasonable, Is | the time to serve them. When making the jelly for the family table, put a portion in an orange basket for the | invalid. The basket is made from the | sk& of one of the oranges. oose a large orange and run tho| tip of a sharp knife around the circum- | ference except between two parts di- rectly opposite each other, which por tion is left for the handle. Run the tip of the knife twice across the top of the orange, so that the lines so made join opposite ends of the han- dle. The lines must be parallel. Peel the skin from the orange in the spaces | b:tween the bowl of the basket and the | hendle as indicated by the lines. | Scoop out the pulp, and the colorful | basket is ready to be filled with jelly, made partly from the juice of the in- side just removed. It takes one whole orange to make such a basket. This is the correct way, but if the homemaker would make two baskets from one orange, it can be done by cutting the orange in half and attaching separate strips for handles cut from another orange. Sew the handles in place securely with thread. Make the joining on the outside of the bowl and conceal the stitches with a | wee piece of candy dipped in boiled sugar syrup or in the hot jelly and pressed in place. Another delicate dish that can be shared by the family is a blanc mange with gelatin, not cornstarch, and hav- ing the whipped whites of two or three eggs folded in. The number of eggs re- quired depends upon the quantity of | blanc mange made, Mold a portion of | this tasty dish in ‘an individual mold. | ‘When taking to the invalid unmold. and | lay a flower or two on the dish. If no | flowers are available, halve some grapes | and make a border of them about the | base of the mold, or maraschino cherries | can be cut in bits and supply a line of color about the white mound. | One thoughtful friend used always to | save the dish gravy from roast beef and send it in a choice little pitcher to | a very sick friend whose life was de- pendent upon vitalizing food, yet who | could eat but little. A school teacher | | whose purse is small takes the flowers her pupils bring her, and makes the room of some invalid friend cheerful. (Copyright, 1929.) o Raw Vegetable Salad.

The money in movies is & rare temptation. We'll leave art out of it for the present. | An ex-newspaper man has made the best talkie yet produced. Monta Bell, | for years director of silent films, seems | to have merged the warring mediums | into a perfect whole. | He tells his story in talk and photog- raphy without the intrusion of subtitles, and his finished product is a far.cry from the mongrels of the early days. Back on the German lots there’ll be a great reunion—Jannings, and Camilla Horn, and Conrad Veidt, and Lya de Putti after her British film venture is concluded. And perhaps some day in the future | moviegoers, weary of the eternal cackle lof the talkies, will drop into a theater to see a fine silent picture made by real artists. And that, curiously, will be the completion of the circle, for that is ex- actly the way Emil Jannings came into vogue. When American pictures grew too silly for even our good-natured pub- lic that public found in Emil Jannings and the foreign-made film something fine in pantomime and characterization and something new in photography. Henpecked husbands invariably pre- fer the silent films anyway. (Copyright, 1029, by North American News- paper Alliance.) Lessons in English BY W. L.

Nancy was getiing ready for th» clezning women who were coming to do her housecleaning for her. She had put dust covers over the furniture and glass prism chandelier. She even had dust coverings on herself. Her hair was done up inside a dust cap, and a large apron almost encompassed her. She was _standing with a wedding vase in| her hand, wondering what to do with it, when she was startled by a sharp cry from the baby. The vase dropped from | her hands and was shattered. 'Tis sad to relate that Nancy felt a joyful release. She never had liked that gift, it was not in keeping with her other furnishings. She wondered whether | she could not be handling another pres- ent when wee Peter might cry out again. Almost she hoped so, but instead she decided to gather together some of the unwanted things and give them to some charitable agency that might sell | them. Now that she and Peter were getting ready to build and to move into their new home she thought the time most opportune to clear away some of the clutter. Upstairs she found & box filled with tally cards, old dance programs, theater programs, favors. ~Without even allowing herself to look at them she heroically threw them into the fire. They really did not mean a thing, and only accumulated dust and took up precious storage space. In putting away some other things— Winter clothes, for instance, she was careful to pack them in boxes which were mothproof. And each box bore a label, telling the contents.

He has every virtue, but we do not care for the same things. He loves a social gathering for dancing or bridge playing. I prefer a program of Bach, or a discussion of the newest books, which would bore him to tears. Moreover, I have a little business in which I am deeply interested, and his kind of amusement seems to me an annoying distraction. Yet the idea of giving him up is simply unbearable. Another man who is attentive to me is perfectly congenial, but I don’t love him and could part from him without a pang. Can you strajghten me out, please. FAIR AND THIRTY. Answer: At your age I should pick out the soul mate. Some wise man has said that the only happy marriages are those in which we marry somebody who {s tl:lsn i‘eil;t““ ourselves in temper, disposition and taste as possible, and this, , 18 true, Congeniality is the very bedrock of a successful marriage. The only husbands and wives who never get on each other's nerves are those*who have the same habits and who have been brought up in pretty much the same environment and with the same point of view. The only husbands and wives who never bore each other are those who are interested in the same things, who enjoy the same things, who like to do the same things. The only peaceful homes are those in which the husbands and wives agree about fundamental things and in which there is no argument or discussion. The best man and the best woman in the world, the most intelligent and high-minded ma: nd woman, the man and woman who are most earnestly desirous of doing their duty as husband and wife, will make a failure of marriage and be utterly miserable if they are not congenial. For what happiness can there be for a couple when each is continually | suppressing desires in order to please the other one? What fun can there be in | a dinner if one has to eat baked beans which he or she loathes because that is the other's favorite article of food, or if one has to drink dishwater coffee and eat food without seasoning because the other can’t bear strong coJee and sophisticated dishes? What pleasure in going to a play if one writhes through | a musical comedy at one performance, while the other sits like a martyr at a gruesome, high-browed problem glay to please the other? What conversation in a home where the talk must walk on eggs for fear of starting a row? No. The people we love more and more all the time, whose society we enjoy and who literally become a part of ourselves, are not those who differ from us, who never want to do what we want to do, who never read what we read and who always take the opposite side of any view we hold. They are those who ride the same hobbies that we ride, who play the games we play, who read the same books, who like the same school of cooking and to whom we can say: “Don’t you remember?” and with whom we never quarrel because we always think alike. Look at the contented husbands and wives about you. Are they not those who have a common interest? The ones who work and play together? The man who likes to step out of an evening doesn't consider it a persecution to have to put on his evening clothes and take his wife to a party. The woman who plays golf doesn't bemoan herself as a golf widow. She trots around the links with Friend Husband. The woman who is interested in her husband’s business never Flu'xunl together how to cut down the overhead or build a new wing to the actory. So, if you want to take out any matrimonial insurance, invest in Congeniality Consolidated. I particularly urge this upon you at your for at 30 it is not casy to adapt ourselves to others and to change our tastes and habits. We are 100 old to learn new tricks and the chances of & woman of 30 learning to prefer bridge to books and jazz to Bach is slim. Marriage lasts a long time and it seems longer if you are united one who bores you. R DOROTHY | D!:AR MISS DIX: You struck me right to the heart when you sald the other | day that a woman with a bunch of children has small chance of ever| marrying again when left a widow. I have five under 13, and it is my only hope of happiness that I may marry again, because my first marriage was very | unhappy. My husband never supported us. He was unkind to me and the | children in every way and unfaithful to me, but I stood it all without a murmur | because I always believed that the Lord would reward me by sending me a good ; husband, and I still believe that He will MRS. EVE. O. Answer: Well, Mrs. Eve, I hope that I am wrong and you are right and | to some DIX. brood and make you & good husband. But whether he does or not, believe me, | in your fine optimistic spirit you have something better -Sg more luszfii{x.nng than a husband. (Copyright, 1929 BEAUTY CHATS down her extra weight.

BY THE COUNSELLOR. At a foreclosure sale John Turner hought the Main Hotel for $12,000.| After taking title he received notice from a heating concern that it owned the light and power plant in the build- ing and had sold it to the previous| owner under & conditional contract,| which reserved title to the plant. Turner contended that, having no notice of the contract, and it not hav- ing been recorded, he acquired title to the plant his purchase of the prop- erty to which it was annexed. In the legal controversy that followed the court decided the question in Tur- ner’s favor, stating: “It formerly was the rule that only property attached to realty so as noti to be removable without material in-| jury thereto becomes actually a part thereof as against innocent third pa ties. But this rule always brought up the controversy as to the severability of the fixtures. “Under the new rule now being adopted as part of the uniform condi- tional sales act, it is provided that no such contract shall bind the purchaser of the real estate unless such contract | is recorded among the land records of the county.” MOTHERS AND THEIR CHILDREN.

Taira, are they more intellectual? Fourth. are introverts more subject to mental pathology than exiroverts? Fifth, is there a definte point th an_individual as extrovert or int B8ixth, is this ing introvert) gene: s @ sour op injons re First, i3 an extrovert at marks rt? ro and Here are half a dozen definite ques- tions to be as defintely answered. Let's reverse the order and begin with the t: Sixth. Yes! the terms are in general use, though several substitutes have been proposed. The terms use 4 William James, “tough-minde or the extrovert, and “tender-minded” for the introvert, suggest the emotional tend- encies of the two types of mind. Fifth. No! there is no definite dividing line. All of us have in vary- ing combination tendencies in each direction. As is true of all such terms, the traits come out most distinctively in prominent or extreme cases. Fourth. Yes! The extreme intro- verts are definitely more likely to pre- sent psychopathic and neurotic symp- toms, and the same is true of the markedly introverted personalities. Third. Yes! The proportion of in- troverts among the intellectual classes, those given to reflection, shaping their lives by a reasoned program, fond of ‘deas, principles, abstractions—in brief, students—is greater than among those not of this type and greater also than | in the average run of men and womcn. Second. Here a “y or “no” an- swer is no longer possible. If by in- telligence you mean any and all of the | varieties of mental fitness, making for the right solution of the many orde:s of problems that the situations of life present, for certain types of problems the predominantly introverted have the advantage, and for others the pre- dominantly extroverted, and for others, the two sets of advantage will be bal- anced more or less. Extroverts and introverts are of all grades of intelli- gence. First. Again a definite answer is 1 possible only if the question is divided and distinctions are drawn. For busi- | ness and worldly affairs, the extro- | verted tendency of mind has the ad- | vantage; for that type of interesi and | the cn&nclly which goes with it are | congenial to the direction of energy | into objective, matter-of-fact problems, | which 15 the extrovert'’s domain. As to | “marital,” there’s the rub! It depends S0 much on the kind of husband, or kind of wife, or both. The safest an- swer is that both may steer the ship of matrimony well and both may prove indifferent pilots. Very marked types find mutual adaptation more of a prob- lem than more average types. | _A few general considerations: The | extroverted type is the more common, the more normal. He is the standard man interested in things, in the ma- | chinery of life, lkewise in “mixing’ with others, in expressing himseif freely. The introvert is more seif- centered. tends when troubled to with- | draw, perhaps 1o brood, is hesitani, {and has to prod himself to keep going. | Hamlet is the typical extreme introvert. There are many varieties of both classes. One psychologist lists the true extrovert as the restrained, the unac- | cepted, the suggestible, the conformist, | the fighting extrovert; and the true in- | trovert as the defensive, the compen- sated, the fearful, the hating, the nega- | tivistic, the sneaking, the inferior. Most of us are mixed in type, not so decidedly one or the other, but with a | tendency to find the greater interes! |and sati: tion in the outer world of | things a; loings, or in the inner world | of ideas.

Use Squibb's Dental Cream situated that they are not able to ar- range this through the diet. One young woman recently asked advice of this kind because she was living at a board- | ing house and employed at some place where it was impossible to purchese much else than very fattening foods. She was then more than 50 pounds be- yond normal weight. When it is pos- sible, girls situated similarly will do| much better if they combine and take a small a ent. Three or four would mean the lessening of the responsibili- ties of work and expense and their pleasures greatly increased. But the young woman who must eat whatever is provided for her without regard to her needs must regulate her easily from cereals and many other foods served already cooked. She should | not drink with meals, leaving that for | a half hour afterward. There should be no nibbling of food between meals. There should always be some form of | exercise for every part of the body each day. This is particularly important if the young woman is holding a position ‘where she is seated most of the time. | When it is possible to choose between | desserts, avoid the starchy pudding or the pastries.
