SUNDAI BIS’!

They say sundaes were invented because ice cream sodas were once considered too frivolous to eat on Sunday. Someone decided plain ice cream, with a topiiinx o! fljuih syru or nuts, would be all rishii f A): first, the name of the dish was spelled just. like the day. bu! gradually it bceame custom y to spell it B U N D A ll

For most peep the week is a ood day for a sun- dae, especially n the summertime. This year, there's been plenty of ice cream available for sundae- making.

lllnts on Etiquette

when you receive an invitation on a calling card, you may answer the invitation either by your own calling card or by telephone,

daes. Right now peaches are a headliner lvn this field. They'll look prettier on your ice cream if you wait until just before serving to cut them up. Don't give them a chance to darken. If they're ripe and sweet, you won't need to add any sugar to the peaches. If sweet- en ng is necessary and you're short on sugar, try using honey. For an extra touch when company's com- ing, scatter crushed, toasted ai- monds on the ice cream alon with the peaches. You'll bring for h de- lighted "en's" and "ah's" from your guests.

Certain fruits ..... ..like stowed plums or peaches...... make delicious sundaes too, And here's an idea. If yyuTe making reserves

Io to college to study music, or take a secretarial course? I know that L-abould have settled this question of wihst to do, before I graduated. but. like many girls, I wanted to earn money and was

eager to get MARISA.

ANSWER: Just because you would like to we a. musician doesn't make you one. nor is it any sign that God gave you talent that would enable you to become one. Moreover, in these days when one can turn on the radio and hear great artists playing. thechance of any amateur being able to make a living as a musician, unless lie or she is exceptionally gifted,

is poor indeed. DON'T WASTE TIMI

So I would not advise you to waste your time and money study- ing music, unless you do it Just for your own pleasure. But I do urge you to make a serious attempt to find out wibet sort of work you are best fitted to do and then to prepare yourself for doing that so effici- ently tihat you can hold down a steady job. instead of being batted about from pillar to post. which gets you nowhere

The reason so many girls have to take small salaries and never have any pesirnanent positions is because they have not thought it worth wihile to prepare themselves for the work they are undertaking. If they are steriograpiiers. they don't know how to take dictation, or spell. or writes. decent letter. If they are clerks. they don't lmow their stock. or have any selling technique. ‘Ilhey only hold their Jobs in an emergency and are fired as soon as a more competent person comes along.

There is always a good place and good pay for good workers. Make yourself one.

never leaves my husband and myself alone even for an hour if she can help it. And she has personal habits that are very offensive. She is apparently allergic to bathtubs.

Don't you think that if we are willing to settle her in a comfort- able iittle apartment and support her that she should be content to live in it. and let us have our home-to ourselves? My husband and I have been so happy together until now. What can I do?

IVIiISERABI-E

ANSWER: I think that you should just frankly tell your moth- er-in-l-aw that you and your husband desire to have your home to yourselves. without any third party in it. Ask her if she doesn't re- member itow. when she was a young married woman. that she want- ed to be alone with hes husband. and keep her house. and rear her children according to her own. ideas, without somebody always prof- ferlng her unasked advice. And tell her that she will be so close to you that she can visit back and fcirth as much as she likes.

DEAR. MISS DIX: I am in» love with a soldier who is going back to college as soon as he gets his discharge. I want to marry him now. but he insists on putting off marrying until he finishes college. which wtilil take four years, and has gotten a job that will enable hilm to give me everything I want. But I only want him. Also, he says he isn't. quite sure of himself.

Do you think I should wait for hiim, or try to forget him?

‘ BARBARA.

ANSWER; Forget him. If he isn't sure of himself now he will get more and more doubtful about his feelings towards you as time goes by. I can see no use in waiting on him.
