ELLEN'S DIARY

by an Island

The farmlands are beautiful now as they lie washed in the silver beams of a March moon about lull. How bright the night is! So lovely one regrets she must leave the engaging scene with-

out. of nestling famihouse. of val-

lay and hilltop to come present- I) to her rest.

Even there the moon will fol- lnn us. hi-iniches against the night-sky will provide an us upon which to waave a new length of dreams of old schools and homes; of old gard- ens and sunny country lanes and holds set with meadow-flowers- these shau make the substance at our weaving. .

There too from our pillow w shall find through the boughs an oltl winter star. one which has given us comfort through some ilvcpiess watch of the night; when the hours moved slowly because in Jill annoying misery of body and the rest of the household slept Then to the east. our friend of star kept bright vigil with us until at length our troubles easctl or vanished and we too ncrc caught up in the arms of

sleep.

so bright the bedroom will be that we fancy James will speak into the silence to say: "Are you sure. Ellen that when you came

nnsa may itawoaut: I am a small business man with my full share of worries. I have been married five years and in busi- ness three years.

upstairs you turned off the yard- light?" . U U O

This has been a busy night for James and also one of some con- cern. though it came at length to a happy ending. Quietly now the households rest. In the absence of the younger farmer. who must be abroad on some mission of farming. and the farmwives who "Just must go" to attend the monthly meeting of the W. 1. James was left with the care of the children and homes.

Not that the former was any chore with Granddaughter picking up her favorite doll and retiring without a reminder when her bed- time came. And if Mack post- poned his going to remain awhile in the company of his elders about the fire. he too soon became drowsy and made his way up the stairs.

The care of the fires was a trying bequest however. with the wind of month high about the chimneys. To add to his concerns --and James declared he never saw it any better: when the wo- men were most wanted they were sure to be away!--the red cow was bound and bent to bring her calf to the world. So with fires and as it happened (masculine) company and all, it is no wonder that he has gone before us to bed.

It was pleasant for these house- wives to come to that hospitable home of tonight's foregathering- that of which a part is the corner- store; to meet there other women from near and farther flung cor- nor: of the district, to work and plan for the bettennent of "Home and County" and in the doing, chat and laugh together again.

To come home then in the moonlight and find that all was well as we had known it would left to James' care. If as he said before retiring he "would have liked to see that calf nurse with better appetite" it will survive at least until the crack 0' down brings the farm-

ers once more to the stable. 0 C 0

Crack 0' down! Right smart- ly it will come.

B. T. NOLMAN

since starting in business. my motto has been "Give all to the business. and some day the busi- ness will take care of you." By giving all, I mean within rea- son of course.

Judy works at her job five days ngweelt, eight hours a day . . . and when I get home even- ings

she thinks it very wro of me not to share the do tic chores. Especially the U-lllper

dishes. I feel no man should do dishes unless. of course. his wife is il

His Mother Was Different

There are just the two of us at home and I keep asking Judy what she will do when we have children. I know very well that caring for children is more work than an office job; but she tells me "That's different." of course it's different. but I know it is harder.

My parents had five children and dad never washed or dried aldish. and mother wouldn't have stood for it if he had offered. She was up mornings an hour before him. to make sure his coffee was ready. and what's more. she loved it. She would have had a fit if she couldn't get up to take care of her man.

Please understand; I don't ex- pect my wlfe to wait on me hand and foot besides wage-earnng; but what's this fifty-fifty deal she keeps talking about? Always worrying that she may do a little more than her share. So what? What is love? I don't mind putting in long hours seven days a week. and if some day I make good money. it isn't for me alone. But try to explain this to my wife--Oh brother! Please help. S, S,

Mother Short On Self-Esteem?

DEAR S. 8.: It doesn't make sense to compare your wife's ideas with your mother's per- formance. Thelr ways of life are incomparably different. In your marriage. your wife is supporting you. at present. Or at any rate. financing the establishment which you call "home". Whereas in the case of your parents. your father was the family breadwinner.

When your mother jumped around. waiting on dad hand and foot. she was signifying apprecia- tion of his protector-provider status in relation to her and their brood. Also, I suspect. trying to sell her "worth" to the family. by being everybody's slave to compensate for her unconscious anxiety at feeling wholly depen- dent on dad's bounty. If she had been more self-reliant financi- ally. she might have been a lot less the doormat homemaker. As I get the pitch. your busi- ness venture is a sort of facade for laziness. It is a matter heading your own shop. to get out of being bossed. A hidcr.-L from work and discipline. maybe? You say it yields no dividends? after three years: your wife':

healthy start in Battle Creek. Michigan. which I am proud to claim as my home town. Under tbe auspices of the local Y.W.C.A.. I59 overwelghts in four different groups are slimming down and toning up - and having the time of their young middle age lives going it.

It all started when one over- weight. finding it uphill work to reduce Alone. set out to lay the ground work for a reducing club. She contacted dietitians. doctors. beauty exerts and fashion author- ities. all of whom expressed a willingness to lend their talents to this good cause. She went to the "Y" to enlist their coopera- tion for the exercise part of the program. They were enthusiastic about her plans. and offered their faculties and help in organizing the clubs provided enough women were interested in losing weight. .

Interested! The response was overwhelming. An organization meeting was announced in the En- quirer and News inviting over- weights desirous of losing 50 or more pounds. Forty overweights attended. Actually. only 28 fell in the 50 pounds and over cate- gory. so they formed one club. The dozen others formed another club for those needing to lose less than 50 pounds.

Both groups planned to meet every Wednesday at 2:00 p.m. I-loyvever. some of these women. plus many others. requested e.en- ing meetings. so two additional

ably wouldn't be so insistent on your giving her a fair deal.

New Pattern In Marriage

y What is this fifty-fifty deal she is talking about? It is a new pat- tern of married teamwork that first became the rule amongst manly fair- ' ” ' husbands in the 1940s. when many young men, just out of the Army. were get- lng married while going to school at Government cost.

In 'many such cases. the man wasnt prepared to support a wife just yet; and to make marriages possible on his student allotment, his bride had to work for pay. to help meet bills. And in apprecia- tion of her ingenuity and industry in this A , '. the husband sh.-r. ed her load of housework as best he could. voluntarily-glad to my it. to be comradely in a practical spirit.

From this beginning. young American fathers are interesting themselves in their children's growth as never before in our history. They are learning to really know their children's inner selves from infancy upwards: and thus.to have a responsive insight into the children's needs of sym- pathetic affirmative two-parent care.

Give the human race enough of this kind of experience. in the

crucially formative first year of

life-namely. the experience or feeling secure in an atmosphere of good father-love. as deeply familiar as mother-love-and man-

kind would rapidly outgrow thr-

tensions that lead to world wars.

A Lemon Meringue Pie

Is A Popular

By his Ball

A LEMON MERINGUE PIE IS A POPULAR DESSERT

"Can you bake a lemon pie. Billy boy. Billy boy? hummed our singing Chef. as he spooned tras- rant lemon filling into a baked flaky, pie.-shell.

"Why did you sing 'lemon pie' instead of 'cherry"."' I inquired.

Cherry Pie No Trick

"Because, today. it's no trick to make a cherry pie. You can even buy the entire filling in a can ready to use. But a beautiful lemon pie made with fresh lemon juice. and topped with meringue light as a spring breeze-Oh. la. in! That is an achievement!"

One of the questions we're ask- ed about lemon pics. when the Chef and I make public appear- ances, is why lemon pie fillings need more cornstarch than other cream pies.

A Technical Matter

The answer is a bit technical. The fresh tangy flavor of lemon is due largely to the presence of citric acid. This breaks down the starch while cooking the filling and so a lemon pie needs more cornstarch in order to thicken it sufficiently.

Two more questions concern ilie meringue: What will keep it from becoming runny and watery. and what will keep it from falling?

The answers: Add lemon juice or cream of tartar to the unbeaten egg whites. Don't underbl:-at the incriiigue. and be sure to cool the pie away from a draft.
