Cheese Dishes Wholesome And Economical in Dietary ‘The United States Department of Agriculture is a great champion of cheese. Experiments of this department have shown that one pound of American cheddar cheese contains as much protein as 1.57 pounds of sirloin steak and as much energy as 198 ds of the same meat. Moreover, it one of the most highly digestible of No housewife can afford to overlook cheese in planning her daily bill of fare.

DEAR DOROTHY DIX: We have four children. My husband is one of the best men, very kind and loving to us all, but he and I differ on one point— educating the children. He earns only a small salary and it has been a hard strug as they are through grammar schcol. much education as you can possibly trained for some specific job, because long as they live, has reached his limit, The first question that girls and hunt for work is how much education for any but experts. ill-done work.

Her father sald she must find work of some sort, but I insisted on her going two years to high and then saw that she had a business course. It meant more skimping and saving, but she got a good job es soon as she graduated. The usual rate for board and rooms here is $30 per month. I toid her that if she would -pay me that much I would be satisfied, but her father doesn’t think it is fair for her to have so much of her salary left for herself while the balance of us are so pinched for money, but you know how girls want pretty clothes and to have good times, ' What do you think about this? MRS. X. Answer: You are very wise In insisting that your children should have as give them and in seeing that they are that will affect their earning power as You have a vivid illustration of this in the fact that your young daughter, who has a trade at her fingers’ ends, was able at once to get a good situation and that her education enables her to make as much at 18 as her father earns at middle age. Also, the girl will go on progressing and making more while he boys are asked when they start out to they have had, and so parents should, if they possibly can, put their children through high school and then, at any sacrifice, have them taught some trade by which they can make a living. I think that technical education comes nearer to solving the financial and moral problems of our day than any other one thing. It is, to begin with, the road to success, because in this day when efficiency is our god there is no room No employer wants to bother with bungling amateurs. Nobody has the time or patience to deal with those who turn out faulty and difficult to get even a chance to work and always have to take the most menial jobs. ‘They invariably They are the ones who are never laid off in slack important, as competition grows closer, life work. One of the great problems of our day is the delinquent young, the boys and girls who will not work and who drift from weeks at any place. The reason for this is who hate the tasks they do so badly, who have no pride of craftsmanshi who have never found the joy that comes in turning out good work. ‘They never give satisfaction to their employers, hence their working days are made unpleasant by fault-finding and so they grow discouraged and ob to job, staying only & few that they are unskilled workers ip and new job, some employment that their unskilled hands and untrained minds can perform. Police records show that most of our criminals are boys and that every irls set their feet upon that path. The lack of occupations does more than account for this sad state of affairs. These boys and girls ything else to wve pleasure and money to buy. They have not the skill and so they steal it or get it by other So, if T could urge one thing more than any other on parents, it is to have their children taught some way to make a living. Give them a good you have given them a weapon with which to fight the world and take what trade and they want from it. Give them that and you will have done more than anything else to make them useful, law-abiding citizens. As for how much money your daughter should give you out of her salary, that depends upon the girl's generosity. If she pays you for board the usual rice in your community, she has dealt fairly with you and given all that you ve a balance of ht to demand, but she must be a very selfish girl if she spends the her earnings on herself when the family is in such need. I should think her sympathy for her poor, hard-worked father would prompt her to put her young shoulder under the family load and help him bear it. their You have to teach children to give and to be unselfish and to consider rents, so I would certainly advise you to impress upon yours that it is their duty and their privilege to ou back for the years of sacrifi made for th > it i T ROT:Y’OI‘;!?{‘" em.

S A A Creamy Rice Pudding. Wash one tablespoonful of uncooked rice, add one quart of milk, one-third cupful of sugar, one teas) ful of salt, and a little nutmeg or ci on. Pour the mixture into a_ good-sized baking dish and cook in the oven slowly for about three hours, stirring frequently. If allowed to cook slowly, the milk will thicken to a creamy consistency and the rice will swell to several times its original sige. If double the quantity of rice is used, the mixture will not require as long in cooking, as the rice in swelling thickens the liquid more rapidly, but the p is not as creamy. Often half a cupful of raisins may be added to the pudding and al- lowed to cook down with the milk.

NANCY PAGE Guest Rooms Can Be Gay Since Visits Are Fleeting. BY FLORENCE LA GANKE. Nancy's cousin had a small home, a small family and a small income, With all these she combined a large and merous heart. She always wanted riends to stay for the week end or whenever they were in town. She had one small room which was the guest room. One day she came to Nancy and said, “I wonder whether you could give me some ideas for doing over my guest room. I have not much money, as you know. But there is something the matter with the room. Please come over to see it.” Nancy went and saw a small room with a white iron bed, white dresser and dressing table, white ruffled curtans, dark green shades at window, a lamp with a shade which was too small. In addition, the pictures were badly hung. I can see all sorts of possibilities for this room, Prances. It is too white just now. A guest room can be quite gay since it is not permanently occupied by any one person, If it were, that guect might grow tired of the color, but not the transient guest. I wonder whether you can allow money for a maple chest of drawers and maple beds, the small twin size. They will fit into the room and will make it easier to entertain two guests, “We won't change the wall paper. But we will take down the ruffled cur- tains and the dark green shade. We can get a beige-colored shade which will shut out the light as effectively, but which won’t be so obtrusive to the eye. Then I have other suggestions. Let me talk wiht you tomorrow. Guest rooms imply guests and meals. Write to Nancy Page, care of this paper, in- closing & stamped, self-addressed enveiope, asking for her leaflet on bridge luncheon menus. Sour Cream Nut Bread. For afternoon tea, for a dainty buffet supper, or as an accompaniment to fruit salad, there is nothing better than a nut bread sandwich. A loaf which can be quickly and easily made, and which will keep for several days, is made as follows: Mix and sift together four cupfuls of flour, three-fourths cup- ful of sugar, one teaspoonful of baking soda, three teaspoonfuls of baking pow- der, and three-fourths teaspoonful of salt. Beat two eggs, combine with one- fourth cupful of milk or enough to make moist dough, then add to the dry ingredients to form a moist and fairly stiff dough. Add three-fourths cupful of chopped nuts and more milk if needed, after adding two cupfuls of thin sour ceram. Turn into two well greased loaf pans, set the pans in a cold oven, heat gradually to a medium temperature, and bake for about 50 minutes, or until the bread is light brown and firm to the touch. The bread should be allowed to become part- ly cool, then be wrapped in a towel or several thicknesses of paraffin g:’per and kept in a bread box for 24 hours before being cut. The crust will be soft and need not be removed when making sandwiches.

FEATURES.’ Responsibility. ‘The amount of responsibility a young person can carry successfully is a very good measure of his power to live hap- | | pily. Every father and mother hope that, some day, their children will carry their share of the world’s burden blithely and well. But how few par- ents are willing to give their children the chance to lefffn how it is done. “I had to work hard all my life. I want my children to have & happy childhood. I can do all the work that is necessary.” “If I refuse my child all he wants he will not love me and I want him to love me always.” “The girls are too delicate for such work.” | “Let 'the poor child sleep a little longer. He was up so late last night. I'll do his chores for him.” “Dear me, Tommle, where is your cap? That makes the fifth hat this term. I wish you would look about the school for it.” Says Tommy carelessly, “I did but I couldn’t find it.” “I have to go upstairs and pick up the children’s rooms. They drop things around so and neyer know where to find them.” This sort of thing is going on continu- ally. Mother steps in and eases the burden of responsibility off her child’s shoulders on to her own. She does not need that extra responsibility to train and discipline her soul. She has suffi- clent without it, but she takes it and the child loses that much wth. Who is going to carry the responsi- bility for these children when the time comes for them to stand alone?
