A DAY AT RHODE ISLAND BEACHES Dear Social Corner Sisters: As I like to see the Social Corner page filled, I will do my bit toward filling T en- joved’ the picnic at Aunty No. 1's and was glad to see her settled in such a pleasant spot for her new home. We enjoyed the beautiful dahlias which her neighbor up the hill so kindly gave us and they kept fresh for several days. It's a pleasure to attend the Social Corner gatherings and meet old friends, make new ones and find out who is who. T was pleased to find Triple E a friend of childhood days as we used to attend the same church and Sunday achool in Goshen. I have been very much interested in reading of the vacation trips taken by the different sisters and can just picture to myself the good times those who have been spending a few weeks at the shore have had. It has not been so we could go away for over night, but have had several trips for the day and will tell you one of the best. One lovely morn- ing Lebanon Brownie and her husband took their auto, invited neighbors, and also a young man who lives near my and and myself and we left home at 6.15 a. m. for Matunuck Beach, R. L, a ride of about 60 miles and we surely en- joyed the ride as it was a glorious morn- ing. We dressed in our bathing suits, then put on other clothes over them, so as to lose no time on our arrival. When we reached Matunuck we drove as far as we could toward the place to dig clams and then had a lonz mile to wal After dfeggzing round clams for about two hours (which is lots of fun), we went back to the car and drove over to the ocean side where we did justice to the lunch we had carried fter we finish- ed our Junch and watched the waves for a little time our suits were dry and we started on. The next ston was at Charlestown Beach, where we had an- other walk and dug long clams. We re- luctently left th but the time was getting late. After a very short call at the home of a triend who lives near the beach we went on to Weekapaug beach, where the men secured a boat and went after crabs, while the women in the party looked around the familiar place as we spent two weeks there two years ago. A little after seven we start- ed for home where we arrived at 9.20, tired, but with a good supply of clams, which tasted so good the next day. And the memory of the trip will last for a long time. Think I have taken my share of space this time. Best wishes from DORINDA. HOW TO MAKE A POTPOURRI JAR. Dear Social Corner Sisters: I am go- ing to do my bit by writing a letter to help fill the Corner page. I have been so glad to see so many recipes for can- ning and I, too, tried Celia Louise's way of ptting up tomatoes. But mine were a failure, so T went back to the old way of cooking them.

PEPPERMI PEOPLE BORN in- dissolve three tablespoons of salt and two cups of sugar; mix thoroughly Dear Editor of the Corner: i wonder if the followinz delineation of character would prove instructing or inspirational to your readers who were born under the sign of Libra, between September twenty- third to October twenty-third. sign partakes of the nature of one of the four natural elements. Aries, Leo and Sagittarius are fire signs: . Gemini, Libra and Aquarius are air; Taurus Vir- g0 and Cavricorn are earth; and Cancer, Scorpio and Pisces are water signs. It is amusing to note how fire people are quenched by water people, earth causes fire to sputter, air and fire mix and earth is solid enough to stand anything. The people born in this sign are ener- getic, ambitious, thoughtful. contempla- tive. They weigh everything 4nd are very just. The men are self-reliant and reckless, early learn to strike out for themselves, developing great business ability, often becoming stock brokers, speculators, schemers,{ and sometimes gamblers. The women are not so reck- less and are apt to be careless about money. All of this sign are kind and have ‘a horror for bloodshed or cruelty. Hard work does not appeal to them— they are modest. neat and particular, have a fair amount of ambition and are fond of building air castles. Affectionate and often marry young and some times more than once. The faults of these people are materialism and impatience. They are careless about where they put their be- longings and are inclined to borrow from other people Wwith no idea Wwhether they can return the borrowed article or mot. They are much too gnerous in their giv- ing and not apt to use judgment. They seldom get angry but— when they do it is like a cyclone, leaving nothing un- said. The diseases these people are li- able to are stomach troubles and nerv- ous prostration, caused by impatience and giving away to their angry passions. Learn to decide quickly and to then let g0 and you will grow strong and power- ful to work out your ideals. Speak peace to your fretting thoughts. Let patience have her perfect work lest you condemn unjustly. Love and pardon others and the balm of it heals you as well as those others. Look less at the externals of life—value the unseen things that are ex- ternal. Love, faith and wisdom are in- visible, eternai, all powerful like electric- ity. Be at peace with yourself and the world and God; love your work; help others to be at peace and love their work. Keep the scales even! Get the earth bandage off your eyes! So shall you live long and well to the joy of the world. He who makes the world brighter, more joyous and better, has not lived in vain. (Signed.) CROWS FEET a A MIXED BUT BUSY WEEK. Dear Old Social Corner: I am trying once again to meet with you in spirit, if not in flesh. September has been a month of giving up trips and pleasures to me, but I hope the ice is broken for Josiah Allen’s wife used to say “When things' begin to happen they generally keep coming—good or bad.” The first of the month I was sick several days Cut This Out—It is Worth Money Cut out this slip, enclose with 5c_and mail' it to Foley & Co., 2835 Sheffield Ave., Chicago, 1li., writing your name and address clearly. You will receive in re. turn a trial package containing Foley's Honey and Tar Compound for_ coughs, colds and croup; Foley Kidney Pills for pains in sides and back; rheumatism, backache, kidney and bladder ailments} and Foley Cathartic Tablets, a whole- some and thozoughly cleansing cathartic for constipation, biliousness, headaches, and slug, bowels. Lee & Osgood Co. Eacn | and during that time the Buckingham meeting, the picnic at Wildwood, the | Academy reunion and the unveiling of the soldiers’ monument took place, but the line of march of the latter event was by my house so I enjoyed that much of it. The past week has been mixed but -the silver lining has peeped through enough to keep the dark church in the background. I had a big jar of peppers to' stuff and I like the cabbage, etc., chopoed instead of ground, so Monday I went to an’' aunt whom I knew had an unused wooden tray—my own being broken—and hurried home with it to get them started. Before I got at them I had a caller whom I was glad to see and so I let the peppers g0 until Tuesday. Monday night while I was getting supper a boy brought me an invitation to a social event I really wanted to attend, but I.was so hurried I neglected to open it at once and when I did found it was for that night and I had no time to get ready, so I ran out to spend an hour with my aunt, only to find the family all away from home; then I tried 'a friend and met her at the door ready to attend a special church service, so I called that day mixed. Tuesday I ordered my vinegar for those peppers to be brought early and it can—but when the man took it from the wagon he knocked the bottom from the jug and I had to wait for another supply. But that afternoon I had call- ers whom I was glad to see—one a vis- itor from out of town. Wednesday I tackled those ' peppers and put them in the big jar—five gal- lons of them—and by hurrying and leaving some things unfinished got to the Ladies’ Ald. meeting across the street at 3 p. m., to be met by the mess- age that if I would hurry to my cous- in’'s home he would take me with his mother and sister to visit an old friend at her summer home some six miles away. It was our last chance as she returned to the city ‘the next day. I hurried and we had a pleasant visit and a ride through a country once so fa- miliar, now so strange Her :niece, a friend of my childhood, was with her and even if sad memories of those who were so dear to-us- both-in those days now long since passed on came to us we felt it wag worth it all to just meet once more, so I think the luck has turned and I look for a lot of good things to happen—perhaps even a chance to attend the October meeting at Buckingham. ETTA BARBER. THE OLD CHURCH NEAR BEACH POND To the Editor and Sisters of the Corn- er: Am sending in a little poem which 1 thought was pretty, I hope you will enjoy it as well as I Sunbonnet Sue: I wrote a while back on Beach Pond, but I take my hat off to you as the men folks say. You can write a lovely letter. Now you know Beach Pond and surroundings so well, can you tell me the namé of the old old church that is on the road there just before you get to the corners where you turn to your right to go to the bathing beach side. There used to be a bell in the belfry, but that is gome and tall bushes and trees almost hide the old churdh or meetiny house. It's on your right when you are going tnere from Voluntown. Here's hoping that all the sisters are all enjoying this nice fall weathor. E. M. R. C. P. HAD GOOD LUCK WITH RECIPES. Dear Editor and Sisters of the So- cial Corner: I was not going to write again so soon buteas I know I shall not crowd any letters off of the Corner page unless there is more sent in than there was last week, I just want to write and tell the Corner sisters how pleased I was to read so many diffezent recipes for using up green toma‘o:s. So this week I have been trying out some of the recipes, and have had good luck with every one I have tried. Cady: I am glad you got your pet dog back again. I know just how you were all worked up over it.' Sesms to me as if the law for keeping- dogs chain- ed could be modified a little: bit. The poor dogs will all go mad I am sure |1t they have to be kebt chained much longer. Those Who own pet dogs dere not take them out for exercise,. leading them by a, leash for: fear - they will break away from the owner. To me it is an unjust law, also much cruelty has been done to the poor dogs. Why not enforce other laws that nave been made and stop boys fiom- riding their bikes on the sidewalks. I was sweeping off my sidewalk in front of my house when a boy came along riding his: bike. He came very near runniug against me. There is a fine for that. Why not let the poor dogs loose? If not dome soon the poor dogs will go mad and also the owners of them. Good luck to the editor and all the sisters. |with R. W. | Proj.

Nature has bestowed much on the conditions: in this ome in particular in the making of the scenery seem ideal. The fine roads and neat lawns speak of the interprise and thrift of the good peo- ple that live there.. Across the beauti- ful little green park there is a much traveled foot path, and houses flank the square on all sides. On the . gentle sloping hillside there are a great nub- ber of beautiful shade trees where dur- ing the spring and summer the birds sing their sweetest songs. A peaceful quietness is broken by the music and laughter of romping children on their way to and from the consolidated school. Of course there are many autos passing, but the thoughtful driver of the faithful horse stops at the village trough for re- freshing drink. This ideal village has a store, post office. library, hotel, a resi- dent physician and from the steeple of the village church is heard the beauti- ful chimes from the clock as it tells ot the passing hours both night and day. ‘Where is the place? I begin to hear you ask. O, it's Windham Center. JIM. Bweet Corn Cakes Editor of the Social Corner:'m told if T send a letter or recipe to you that constitutes the qualifications, of being or becoming a member of the Social Cor- ner. I attended the Brooklyn fair last week Wednesday saw much and should have seen more but it commenced to rain coon. One thing impressed me as a very small article, but the work it was made to do in the hands of a skillful operator was surprising. It is ealled Olcott's Corn Cutter, which leaves the tough part of each kernel on the cob.

Where have our thoughts always dwelt? By the e that our senses report to our minds gone is the moment we've felt. I thought how true that is and I will send it to the Social Corner. Ella H.: You say cne told vou that salt water was good for the hair. Salt water has a bad effect on the hair and if the hair is not protected while at the shore you certainly want to wash it thoroughly. If the scalp is flexible, the vigor of the hair will suffer. A quarter of an hour spent by beginning at the outer edge, and making towards the cen- ter, the finger pressing firmly, the skin (not the hair) being well manipulated works wonders. Then a good tonic should be used, according to the nature of the head, oily or dry. Many heads of hair will not stand constant washing: I can’t explain washing your head as well as I would iike. If your hair is very oily wash it once every fourth week with a dry shampoo, and Jlways try to have it seen to, at just such a time. When applying, the hair wash the plan is to part the tresses from the forehead to the scalp and rub it in well, and so in strands all over the head, with a bit of rag or cotton. Do the back first, then attend to the sides and front. Dandruff has a way if you notice, of accumulating over the ears. Shaking the hair when the cleansing process is over will help dry it and the scalp also. Health has much to do with the state of the halr. When it becomes thin, hza'th is most always the cause. A tomie w:i do if used frequently quite as well as 2 ha'r wash—accompanied by massage. I would certainly have some well inform- ed person look at my scalp, as I think so much -depends on ‘the hair for good looks.

It wi stated Friday that there Is ¢ prospect of early resumption of trolley servige between North Grosvenordale and Webster. The Webhster Chamber of Commerce and officials of that tows have been working diligently for months past to have the Connecticut company resume operations over a part of the line that was abandoned a year ago last winter during the ice period. Webster is particularly anxious that service be resumed becalise Webster wants more trade from the Grosvenordales. It was being stated on Friday that President L. S. Storrs of the Connecticut .com- pany has oractically agreed to re-estab- lish the service for a period of twe months in order to determine how muck business the territory is capable of producing.
