Make as many of these sand- wiches as there are guests. The sand- wiches should be sufficiently hearty for one to be ample for this part of the re- | freshments. A dainty touch is given by putting sprigs of parsiey on either side of the cabin to represent green shrubs. | _Pireplace Sandwiches.—Between two | slices of buttered white bread put a | thick layer of hedrty nan. as described for the log cabin sandwich.

DEAR MISS DIX—Don't you think that parents should always strive to teach their children by example and precept to praise and appreciate each mem- i ber of the family? Don't you think that it is wrong for parents to lavish all of | their love on a particular child without giving the same consideration to the other children? Don't you think that criticism is a deadly thing in the home? Don't you think that adverse criticism in childhood and adolescence are the cause of various inhibitions which are handicaps to men and women in Iater life? Don't you think it wrong for parents to interfere in their children’s friend- ships without just cause? Don’t you think that it would make for the success of marriages if men and women during courtship acted frankly, sincerly, sym- pathetically with each other? L. J. E. | Answer: Yes, yes, yes to every one of your questions. I subscribe with all my heart to your views. | There is nothing else in the world so beautiful as a peaceful home in which ! the father and mother and children dwell together in unity, and unite in sing- ing praises of each other's virtues Instead of joining in an anvil chorus hammer- ing their faults. Next to the love between husband and wife as A source of happiness is ! the love between brothers and sisters. There is something peculiarly comforting |and staying to the soul in this affection because it is free from all the sex attractions and repulses and jealousies that make the relationship between other men and women so often full of torment and unrest even when they love each other. | The Bible makes the love of brother for brother the symbol of the most ! enduring affettion that can exist between human beings, and this is not with- out reason, because if brothers and sisters love each other they have between them not only the bond of congeniality, but the tie of blood, and they are united by the common memories that make them closer to each other than they can | ever be to any one else. Life brings no greater blessing to any man or woman than to have a dearly Joved brother or sister in whose affection and loyalty he or she can absolutely trust, and to whom he or she can go in any time of trouble, sure of help and sympathy and understanding. So wonderful is this relaiionship that it is & pity that parents do not think | it worth while to culfivate it in their children, and to teach them to love and appreciate their brothers and sisters instead of permitting them to quarrel and fight, and to say to each other the insulting things they would say to no other human being. T also agree with you that piaise and not blame is the lever with which to lift. family I‘ige out. of the nk)ulhp of despond into which it generally bogs down. | Pault-finding never yet cured a fault. To be nagged continually about & short- | coming only makes a child get its back up and become sullen and resentful, and determined that 1t Is going to keep on in the ssme old way. To keep a child's weaknesses and foibles continually before it discourages it and makes it feel that it is such a poor, miserable failure that there is ho use in trying to be any- | thing better. Many and many & man and woman are failures in life because their parents | developed in them a hopeless inferjority complex in their youth by their continusl | harping upon their faults. They have told Mary how homely she is until they | have made her so self-conscious that she has lost the poise that might have | earried her through to the style that is better than beauty. They have talked so | much about Johnny being so bashful that. they have made him so timid that he | is afraid ever to make any venture in business or to put his talents to the test. They have made Tommy, who is slow, believe he is half-witted, and so he gives up trying to get an education. But praise it & stimulus. It puts hope into us and confidence and fresh energy, and makes us do the impossible. You may nag Johnny a thousand times about washing behind his ears and combing his hair and he won't do it, but brag once about how well groomed he is and you can turn him into a Beau Brummel. And I know one boy who was turned into & student of history by his mother appealing to him to tell the assembled company at a dinner party on what. date a certain battle was fought. Children, even more than grown people, try to live up to what is expected of them. If they know you consider them little savages and boors they will be little savages and boors, but if you think they are little ladies and gentlemen they will be little ladies and gentlemen. ’ | Certainly parents never do a crueler thing than when they play favorites or boy who is mamma’s pet and who gets the best of everything. Perhaps frankness in the days of courtship might marriage. ce e D!AR MISS DIX—Because 1 have been tortured for months with a problem for which I can find no answer I seek your aid. I am engaged to a girl with whom I am desperately in love and who, I think, loves me, but for financial reagons we cannot marry for another year. Unfortunately the girl still has the de- sire to play, and freely admits that she seeks the attentions of other men. She | says that until we marry she wants to play about and have as much fun as is | possible. Miss Dix, is this your idea of love? If she cannot be content with me before our marriage, what reason have 1 to belleve that she will be satisfied afterward? I have atiempted to break the engagement, but her arguments were so persuasive that 1 weakened and returned. I love her as much as a man ever loved & woman, but this knowledge ihat others share her with me is eating my heart out. What do you think? F.E R. Answer: T should be s little dublous about her affection myseif, for if she other men. You would satisfy her and she would find the society of other men a { bore, and their love-making would be obnoxious instead of attractive to her. No woman who has given her whole heart to & man has any room in it { for any transient guest. He fills her life, her thoughts, her interests, and all other men are as walking shadows. And particularly is this the case in the days of courtship when all the “fun” that any girl who is really in love wants is just being with her sweetheart, and when she can get more thrills out of sitting in the corner of a living room and working out a budget that will prove that two can live more cheaply than one than she could out of going out and making a round of the night clubs with any other man. And you are right In thinking that if you do not satisfy your sweetheart before marriage she will get mighty tired of you after marrisge and still crave the admiration of other men. | However, 1f she is bound to have her fiing, it is certainly better for her to | have it before marriage than afterward. Only the troul i8 with some women that they are never ready to settle down to domesticity and the one man. They have a hungry vanity that craves the admiration of many. They want a hus- band, but they also want loveis, and it is & sad day for a true man when he marries one of these will-o'~the-wisps. DOROTHY DIX.

Claire Lacey was interested in games, parties and good times. She wanted a Valentine party so badly that her mother promised her one | on the condition that Nancy Page would give her some ideas. So off she went to Mrs. Page’s home. | " They took pencil and paper and planned a number of games. One |of the most popular was a singing {game. Small candy hearts were hidden ception hall. The boys were assigned t0 hunt hearts. Whenever a boy found one he lald a finger on it, but did not pick it up untl the girl was called over and heard her partner sing down the scale. A judge stood by to see t no heart was picked up until scale sung. The couple having most | hearts to their credit had to sing a duet, “Oft in the Stilly Night.” Later each person was given a sheet of paper on which he or she wrote the letters of his name in & vertical line on margin of paper. These sheets were passed to partner, who described the disposition, the heart condition and the future in words which began with the letters of the name. Claire's dis- rollmrn might be described as c-ruel, azy, a-rdent, i-cy, r-ebellious, e-ner- getic. Her heart condition as being c-razy, l-ovelorn, a-bsent, i-ronic, r-ebounding, e-ver true.

It seems she had selected a few securities and stocks for investment, but also had decided not to buy them in until they were selling at “her” prices. Her list included worth-while stocks and securities. Most of them had gone up in price since her selection was made. It seemed to us that in most cases they were destined to gq higher in_price. Such ‘waiting is futile and no more | so than in the case of the investing | woman. Her chief concern is to em. stock or bond is a wh-ther it will sell for a dollar more or less next week.

By “worth buying” we mean that it is neither “watered” nor inflated. at a price that represents its true value. Prices of stocks in general may slump or rise. It does not matter to the average investor. She is buy- ing for a “long pull” if she is buying for a rise in price at all. The woman who waits without rea- son before buying her stocks and se- curities is llke the woman who orders a stock bought at a price specified within an eighth or quarter.
