Geometric Motifs for Applique BY LYDIA LE BARON WALKER. AN A=~ E A N Co X A N E WA K E R IN THIS LUNCHEON SET THE APPLIQUE 1S CENTERED AS SHOWN AND THE GEOMETRIC PATCH IS GIVEN FURTHER DECORATION BY THE EMBROIDERED INITIALS. Geometric applique is the last word In this effective patchwork. The units may be large and but one to be used on an article, or there may be several gracefully joined by outlines of em- broidery sttiches. The type of work employed should be suited to the use to which the article is to be put and to the size of the foundation required. A single plece of applique is frequently put on each dolly for dining table ap- pointments. One unit is put in the center of every doily. As this supplise a double thickness where plates rest, such an arrangement forms an extra protection against the heat of warm Pplates. For a long table runner the orna- mental units may be at each end with one in the center, or they can form one continuous line of applique, one unit touching or nearly touching those mext to it in line. No stichery except that needed to hold the lgp]ique in place is apt to be employed. This outlining stitchery may be in buttonhole or blanket stitches and further stress ornament, or there may be sblind stitches, in which case the patches of georemtric color are the sole decoration. ‘Where embroidery is combined with applique, the units are smaller than in the work just described. The units are surrounded with design in embroidery outline, delicate and colorful. The em- broidery follows geometric patterns as well as the motifs in applique. There is a charming precision found in this geometric applique when both units and design are in symmetrical proportions. It is a restful change from the scattered motif applique in which the motifs found placement at the discretion of the worker. No uni- formity was needed. Often in such free-hand work the arrangement was fine, but not invariably. In the geo- metric applique symmetry and design are fundamental elements. Shapes of units must be true and accurate! Em- broidery must follow well balanced de- signs. = The effects are artistic and gratifying. Initials and monograms can be in- troduced gracefully. They can be cen- tered in doilies with a single unit of applique, and be worked in the founda- tion textile color. On towels a band of embroidery on each may have three units of applique introduced, the cen- tral geometric unit being sufficiently large for a monogram or initial to be embroidered upon it. The smaller ones on either side, near to or far from the central unit according to the pattern needs, would be left plain. The ap- plique may be blind stitched in place or be put on with ornamental stitchery. But it 1s not alone on household textiles that geometric applique is found. It is delightful on bags, es- pecially those light-colored ones carried with Summer costumes and with South- ern outfits. Natural linen and any one of the beautiful shades of linen fab- rics now available can be used for the foundation. “The applique is ordi- narily of a like textile contrasting in color with that on which it is put. Fine linens are favored. 'KEEPING MENTALLY FIT BY JOSEPH JASTROW. For Mr. C. Harold Smith this was not what is called an academic question, which means something interesting to talk about with no expectation of doing anything about it; for he d the $10,000,000, and. he had the intention also of spending it for the greatest good of his fellow men. What should he do with it? So he invited the pub- lic to tell him through the columns of a New York paper. For the month of May there was a daily award of $10 for the best suggestion. Thousands and thousands of persons, person® of note and experience who had thought of the matter in one way or another, persons in every rank of life who had met some of its difficulties and were interested in the rellef of human ills. Every- body became a philantropist, which means a lover of his fellow men, coming to the aid of the very practical philan- thropist who sympathized to the ex- tent of $10,000,000. A committee ex- ined the thirty prize-winning sug- stions, decided which was the best and gave a $1,000 prize to Prof. H. E. ‘Garrett, assistant professor of psychol- ogy at Columbia University, for the ohe best suggestion of all. And what was it? He proposed an “Institute for Men- tal Hyglene” to help “stem the rising tide of mental ill-health which bids fair to engulf us in the next few generations.” According to this ver- dict, of all the many nceds of the times, this s the most critical; it justi- fies the proposal of a national Mental Hyglene week. If Mr. Smith decides to found such an institute, that will be another important agency for the pro- tection of mental health. The first and more important step is to recognize the ‘vastness and urgency of the problem; the next is to devise ways of meeting it. 1t requires understanding, and the =kill of application to make a program. ‘The foundation of mental hygicne, like the foundation of many human values, starts with the child, with hunianity in the making. Mental hy- giene emphasizes the fact that edu- @stion is more vitally & matter of how ei:ldren feel and behave than of what they know. These intimate personal habits of mind will go far to determine ‘what manner of man or woman that child will become, whether that man and woman in the making will be one ‘who will be able to meet the problems of life squarely and fairly, ably and bravely, or will succumb to the many temptations and strains which when not 50 met invite mental disaster, fail- ure and unhappiness. First of all is mental fitness, fit- mess in the child’s way of living, pre- ring for fitness in the adult way tér on. It's far more than the avoid- ance of mental ills, important as that 4s and menacing as it is to the welfare of the race. It is the protection of the mental health, the safeguarding of the child’s resources and their wise development. &vety parent and every teacher must fearn to fhink \of education in this newer way, not-as schooling alone, but as shaping men and women to future usefulness and happiness. The main thing a child-has to learn is not things in a book, but self-control. Emotional behavior is the clue to every other form of behavior, Developing children’s interests and activities deter- mines the program of education. Con- duct disorders in, children may develop to serious proportions and become what we call crime. The records of juve- nile courts tell a dramatic tale of failure to adjust personal habits to social conditions. Mental hygiene points the way to the prevention of juvenile crime. The saddest item in the public budget is that for the care and treatment of the criminal population. Not $10,000,- 000 but $100,000,000 would be a cheap price for a large community to pay for the diminution of crime. An honest community, a safe and sane commun- ity, a mentally fit community is the ideal of mental hygicne. A $10,000,000 foundation is just one impressive way of calling attention to the need.

Cover the fresh .mint leaves, cut from the stems, with boiling water, and allow them to steep for several hours. To & quantity of strained apple juice add enough of this mint tea to produce a decided bul agreeable mint flavor. A pint of the mint Jleaves should make enough strong tea to flavor about a gallon of jelly. After obtaining the desired flavor, add enough green vegetable col- oring to produce a clear emerald jelly; just a little is required. Boil for 20 minutes, add an equal quantity of heated sugar, and continue boiling un- til it will form a jelly, anywhere from 3 to 10 minutes. If dried mint is used, less is needed and it should be strained through cheesecloth before being added to the apple juice. MENU FOR A DAY. BREAKFAST.

August 19, 1863.—The staff boat Ella, accompanied by the King Philip, ar- rived here this morning, bringing up Cormimodore Harwood, who has just com- pleted an inspectlon of the varlous ves~ sels composing the Potomac and Rap- pahannock flotilla. With him as he in- spected the vessels was Lieut. Ives, fleet captain, Commodore Harwood was enthusiasti- cally received by the officers and crews of the boats. All the boats were found to be in good condition and fine fight- ing order. Two prisoners were brought to Wash- 3 are T. C. mond, and Thomas J. Thompson of Washington. They were captured by the Jacob Bell while crossing the Poto- mac near Mathias Point three nighus 2go. Bledsoe and Thompson had a number of letters and papers in their posses- sion. They were in a bag, which was weighted and made ready to be sunk in case of threatened capture, but the men were not quick enough to disposc of the bag before the Union sailors cap- tured them. Thompson states that he was cap- tured a few days before the battle of Gettysburg near Westminster, Md., by Stuart's Confederate Cavalry and taken to Gettysburg. From that point, he says, he was taken across the Potomac River and on to Richmond. At the Confederate capital he says he was placed in Castle Thunder, but in a few days was released through the interposi- tion of his brother, who is a resident of Richmond, on the ground that he is @ British subject. Beldsoe says he was tired of living in Richmond and left with Thompson four nighls a ago on a pass in the name of Thompson's brother. They came to Milford, about 40 miles from Richmond by railroad, and thence trav- eled by horse. After crossing the Ral pehannock River, they came to the Po- tomac River at Mathlas Point threc nights ago. Thompson and Bledsoe were turned over to the provost marshal, and they will probably be ‘boarded here at Gov- ernment expense for some time. Aboul 100 letters were found in their bag, many of them being eddressed to per- sons in this city. Commodore Harwood says a section of Confederate Artillery and a squad- ron of Cavalry are in Northumberland County, Va., near the Potomac River, pressing men into the Confederate service. NANCY PAGE But We Shall Dine by Candlelight. BY FLORENCE LA GANKE. In choosing the lighting fixtures for the new home Nancy studied collections and catalogues of sconces. Should she use them? Did they fit into every room? Should they have candles in the holders or should they be wired for -electricity? Should she choose pewter or tin or that new metal which does not tarnish and which will take a dull pewter finish? She based her decisions on these reasonings: If a room was not colonial, early American or provincial French in fur- nishing she knew she should use crnate and expensive sconces. She might use a two-branch one with a mirror back in an English or Geergian room, but surely tin and pewter were out of place. There were rooms where she felt the wall lights with their neutral-colored plain silk shades were much more in keeping than shiny sconces. If they had to take the place of wall lights and_the room was dependent upon the illumination which should normally come from these side lights she knew that the sconces needed wir- ing and electric bulbs. She questioned good taste of the bulbs blown to re- semble a flame. In her dining room she wanted sconces with real candles, She wanted plenty of them so that her husband would not grumble when he had to carve and serve in & semi-lighted room. She wanted sconces in her own bed- room. She would have liked them for the children’s rooms, but she decided that real candles which would burn and flicker offered too much tempta- tion to little hands.

Celebrated Men Who Preferred Brunettes Jilted Once, James Madison Waited Until He Was 43 for Second Choice. BY J. P. GLASS. “BURR BROUGHT MADISON TO DOLLY'S PARLOR.” James Madison waited until he was 32 to fall in love and, after the hard Jjolt delivered to him by Miss Catherine Floyd, 11 years passed before he again | permitted his heart to grow tender. Miss Floyd was the daughter of Gen. ‘William Floyd of Long Island, a signer of the Declaration of Independence and a delegate to the Continental Congress. She was only 16 and youthfully flighty when Madison met her, but her golden glances laid the Virginlan low. Strangely enough, the grave, thought- ful little man, who was said never to have lost his youth, because he never had a youth to lose, had a predilection for giddy women. He was not long in proposing marriage. “He is a man with a future,” said Gen. Floyd to his daughter. “Yes,” was the answer the girl gave to her suitor, twice her age. Madison looked forward to a blissful future. But one day he received a note from the young lady, breaking the en- gagement. It was a youthful clergyman who had blasted Madison's romance. He “hung round her at the harpsichord,” where music was bound to assist the emotions. And so the fickle young lady showed Mr. Madison the exit. The “great little Virginian” sealed up his heart and kept it sealed for another decade. Then he fell in love with Dolly Payne Todd, a young Philadelphia widow. In 1794 gentlemen used to take sta- tion along the streets so they could see Mrs. Todud pass. It was while in the company of one of these admirers that ison first saw her. Though fairly well to do, Dolly had been living since her widowhood with her mother, who kept a boarding house. Among_the other lodgers was Aaron Burr. Madison asked Burr to introduce him to Mrs. Todd. Burr_brought Madison to Dolly's par- lor. Dolly decorated her brunet beauty—shoe had black hair and eyes and a pink and white skin—in a gown of mulberry satin, let a few entrancing curls escape from a dainty little cap, and made herself demurely captivating. A courtship began, h Dolly's first hushand, John Todd, had been only a few months dead. Widowhoods gen- for Dolly Todd. They were related in| a way, Dolly's sister having married a | nephew of Mrs, Washington on her husband’s side. “Dolly,” said Mrs. Washington blunt- ly, “is it true you are engaged to James Madison?” Dolly, taken off her feet, stammered. “Nay,” said Mrs. Washington, ‘“be not ashamed to confess it. He will make | tl;ee a good husband. We both approve | of it.” ‘This amounted to an edict. - Dolly became Mrs. Madison that same year. And a good wife she ever was, justi-| fying her husband’s predilection for brunettes. (Copyright, 1920.) Chocolate Cream Nectar. Melt two ounces of chocolate in a dry saucepan over a gentle heat.

F. writes: “Today in a grocery store a woman set her little girl, apparently about 3 years old, on the counter and then proceeded to make purchases in different parts of the store. ‘While she was away the child took a plum from the grocer's display baskets on the counter and started to eat it. Her mother returned, hastily removed the remainder of the plum and placed it behind the counter where the grocer did not see it. The little girl started to say ‘Why?’ but the woman silenced her’ with a flerce glance. When the mother's back was turned, the child re- trieved the plum and finished it calmly, utterly ignorant of her mother’s motive in taking it from her. &'One can see several factors wrong % in the whole situation, and I am quite sure that the mother’s method of deal- ing with it was a bad one, but I am wondering if I, put in the mother’s place, would have acted with perfect wisdom. My own little girl is only a baby, but the day will doubtless come when I will discover she has taken something which does not belong to her. How can I make her understand without making a dramatic scene and impressing her with the fact that she has done something worthy of notice? How may a mother train herself in ad- vance so that she may meet these situ- ations adequately?” Answer. As you see, T have omitted the last half of your letter. The other mother's problem isn't yours, and she doesn't want Help. In that case, why waste precious space talking about her? Your question is one which perplexes all young mothers. From the time a child has his first toy he begins his lessons in “this is yours.” By the time he is 3 years old, if the mother has been consclentious in showing him what rightfully belongs to and. what is even more important, respects his rights as fairly as she ex- pects him to respect hers, he un- derstand what this meang. ‘The mother in the ‘grocery store showed her own innate sense of dis- honesty and gave the child the definite idea that so long as the grocer didn't know it it was all right. She should have told the child that all food in the grocery belonged to the grocer until bought and paid for, If the ¢hild took the plum, then she must pay for it. ‘The child need not be made to feel like a criminal, but she should have felt that the woerld (in this case the mother and the grocer) looks upon such an act with great disapproval. Being honest is something which sat- isfies us inwardly, even if no one knows about it. The teaching of all ethics to children is a slow process, accompanied by many slips, but if it begins early: and is continued without dramatics and with tact and understanding the child learns the satisfaction of being honest and respecting the property of some one else, as he learns all other difficult lessons. He should be shielded from temptation, but if he slips he must face the disagreeable consequences of his acts. Cheese Salad Loaf.

How much benefit we de- rive from these days of de- pends very much on our ability to get away from our everyday routine. As in the case of longer vacations, complete of scene and assoclations is the secret of successful week ends. If, during the week, you are employed in mental work, put it out of your mind during your holiday and, whatever hap- mfi.‘ do not take along any work. Your should be given a chance to relax and get the fresh viewpoint that is so necessary to successful work. Do not, however, try to remedy men- tal exhaustion by taking violent phys- ical exercise. ' For the average sedentary worker, the first day of the week-end vacation should be spent in almost com- plete rest. Bgthe second day he will be rested enough to indulge in some not too strenuous exercise—a few games of tennis, a few holes of golf, a swim or a short hike. However, or wherever, the holidays are spent, they should include some form of outdoor recreation, but it would be a.great mistake to start from the office and take a 20-mile hike or engage in some strenuous, unaccus- temed sport without preparatory muscle training. Do not be too ambitious at first;. begin the vacation sports grad- ually, adding a little to the amount of exercise taken from day to day, or week to week, so that the muscles may be- MOTHERS AND THEIR CHILDREN. Borrowed Books. One mother says: I try to teach my small daughter to be even more careful with borrowed books than she is of her own. When she borrows one I always take the time to make a cover from heavy wrapping pa- per for it. This keeps the most deli- cately covered book fresh and clean on the outside and Mary knows that she must wash her hands before she looks at any book. If more than one book is borrowed, I print the name of | the book and the name of the owner| on this homemade jacket. (Copyright, 1929.) If I were living in Algiers, in Jericho or Timbuctu, I'd strive to keep from | shedding tears regretting homes that once I knew. My heart might ache | for Punktown scenes, for Punktown’s dear old public square, her boarding houses’ pork and beans—but I'd not voice my longings there. “This is God's country, no mistake,” I'd say, were I in Timbuctu; “her sacred dust I'll never shake, while I am sane, from either shoe. The man who can't be happy here would not be happy in the skies: he'd shed a vain regretful tear among the groves of Paradise. I've come to stay and I have brought my aunts, my nieces and my wives; this lovely city | we have sought, in which to spend our | tranquil lives.” The business men of | Timbuctu and all whose friendship is worth while, the live wire and go-get- ting crew, would hear my statements with a smile. They'd say, “Here is a worthy chap, an asset to our splendid town, and we’ll elect him to some snap, 50 he may salt some money down.” My heart might ache for Punktown's joints, but I'd conceal it with a ; the man annoys and disappoints who knocks the | town he’s living in; who talks of places he has known, more beautiful and far| more fair, till people ask in bitter tone, ' “Why don't .you chase yourself back there?” We often hear the sad-eyed gent from some far land across the seas, who puts up quite a sad lament, since he must live on shores like these. We listen to his heartsick wail, we con- template his sorrow deep, and we advise him he can sail for t'other shores, nnd’ ‘we_won't weep. 'ALT MASON. For Salad 1.

Those whose daily work is of & some- what mechanical nature, involving not much mental effort, will derive even more benefit from getting out of their groove. _The reading of stimulating books and discussion with those having different points of view will give them a wider mental outlook that will prove of valus, especially for those who are set in tI ways and who fail to adjust themselves to new people, new ideas and new con- tacts. Week ends spent with business people who keep young both physically and mentally are helpful. An unwise habit that sometimes mars the iast moments of the business girl's week-end vacation is that of postpon- ing the return home as long as pos- sible. Consequently, the termination of the vacation 1s often an early morning, nerve-racking rush to be at the office in time. Far better to return on Sun- day night and get a good night's sleep near one's business at home.
