IFRAHE RUFFLED CURTAINS
When you first furnished the room you hung white ruffled ready-made curtains at the win- dows and called it a day. But now you're no‘. satisfied with this pleasant but all too ordinary win- doiv treatment. New furnishings ,‘ ' and s new color scheme have ' brought up the style of the room
so much that the curtains seem
to lag far behind. Herc is an idea
_ for keeping the curtains you have
J and really making something of
the windows. Build n box-like
' frame for the top and sides of
each window of thin plywood or
ivallboard. Make the new frame
v wide enough and deep enough to _ , enclose the window frame and
'l‘hcre's real glaiuor in pink mar- '
but i
curtain rod. End the frsmo sides at the bottom of the apron below the sill. Cover the frame with ,heavy fabric in a room scheme I color. Then, just inside the inner edges of the frame, tack a ruffle of a lighter fabric. The ruffle softens the hard edges of the frame, makes it suit the ruffled .curtains. You have something unusual now and the windows ‘ look pretty and important as you please.
BRIGHTEN HALLWAY
The entrance hall is where your homo meets the world—whet.her you are welcoming old friends or speeding a casual doorbell ringer.
It may be all some visitors sec of your home. So make it ex- press your taste and your way of ife.
Your hull protects your living areas from bad weather, so its floors take a lot of pounding. You will find linoleum. rubber tile or composition flooring easi- est to keep spick and span.
If you wisli carpeting, throw an extra piece in front of the door to catch the first dirt. What- ever your hall floor, carpet noisy stairs. Light carpet shades show loss ivoar, lint and dust than dark- er colors.
Be sure stair carpeting is lail with extra turn-under at top and bottom so you can shift it a few inches each year to equalize i VICE-ll‘.
Lot yourself go with a lively design in wallpaper or canvas for the hall. Wallpaper furnishes with- out furniture. And an all-over pattern will camouflage finger- prints snd scars.
. In any case, hall paper should fit the color scheme of your house.
The few pieces of furniture a hall will hold should provide a place for mail, gloves, umbrellas. s mirror for last-minute primping. perhaps a telephone table and chair.
In an upstairs hall, take advant- age of waste space for built-in bookshelves, a linen chest, or s nook for mending.
Do not hesitate to hang pictures in your hall. To keep them from tangling with wallpaper. use wide mats.

ELLEIPS DIARY
B: An Inland Farmer's Wife .
Witches [srbed darkly and rid- lnl Iprightly broomsticks, swe- 501119 black cats with arched backs and glaring green eyes, ind fear- ful, furtive goblins one knew were about but could not quite catch, were abroad, we are ni- most certain in tonight's inky darkness. Indeed since our earli- est recollection of this last and most intriguing of October's nights, we find that it has been no trou- ble at all for us, to hear and al- most catch sight of these fabled creatures in the strange spell that has been, and we confess is still wrapped about Hallowden. When out of doors in the usual expect- ant silence and calm of its dark, we are aware of its mystic charm nor indoors with the dark closed out does it lose any of its fascina- tion. Dimly lit rooms are pervaded by a strange air which makes them pleasantly eery, and if we chance to come to a mirror to tuck in a straying lock, we find our eyes searching for a sight of James’ face at a shoulder even though we know that at the very moment he is 0n some detaining mission away from the house.
Yes, mysterious and always fas- cinating we find this night which farewells October, and even in the midst of the happiness that is ours at Alderlea —— stirrounded as we are by our children and child- ren's children — somewhat nost- algic for the Hallowecns of child- hood, now left far behind in the years. We find then in verity that spirits walk—shades of those we once knew come back from those olden days clothed again in the flesh, young and eager and gay as they were then, those whose wakings now are only names on our lips, or faces in memory. They that we regarded as good or per- haps not so good and yet blessed with many an endearing trait and loyalty, as we recall Lhem, when with us they ran happily and care- free with the pack that were wont to roam “the hills of home" 0n bygone and well remembered Hal- lowe'ens.
ICC
These were nice goblins who roamed about the yards at Alder- lea tonight, lads of fellows to the number of four, a small golden haired prite tagging alflfll f0!‘ good measure. They wore startling costumes and carried round happy- featured Jack-o-Lanterns, and presently leaving ‘the rain and darkness of the night behind they came indoors to unmask and join in merry Halloween games. James himself-and Rob was among those who tried their fortune at catch- ing elusive apples in a pan of wat- er. And when the table had been pushed aside we too must be amen-g the circle that played ring- around-a-rosy, n favorite game of granddaughters, s bit trying on those of us who were older, when it climaxes with an exacting "and
all fall down!" o o
And then when the candy. a nut- t1 confection Ksrolyn had brought, and helping: of fruit had disap- peared and a lunch which had been as we sald “only a cake and a sandwich loaf" had 80M the some way, the children and adults wen entertained by tales of lost f-Isliovwens. James recalled many of those from the old days, as did Mr. A-. neighbor to Rob's. “those recollections reach back to an earlier period-a time when “it wasn't cleared like it is now, it was all woods along there" or "I could show you the exact spot--it was down where-lived, though there's nothing of the place loft now" and a pause and a whimsical smile and “here's been many a change since then!" And we found the stories as interesting as did the children, because they were given life in the telling. and might have been enacted as recen-tly as last night, so real they were in us. And again we could feel the spell of the time, tho mystery and charm of it. the fun and gnlety that ever walks hand ln hand with Halloween.
‘But. Ellen", James says scat- tlng Taby from beneath the stove “it you aren't tired, I am! I'm thinking some of us won‘! b0 so smart in the morning!”

THE GUARDIAN , CHARLOTTETOWN
ti“ DOROTHY DIX SAYS - Bad Taste
Public Display Of Affection ls Offensive To Observers
DEAR MISS DIX: We are two young couples, still in college, who have. bcfln Evllltl’ RBI-tether for two years. We are very much in love and intend getting married as soon as our education is completed. Our trouble is that the parents of both girls object and frown on all evi- dence of affection between us, even though they realize that we in- tend to get married. Is there any way of coping with parents wlin have been married so long that they do not believe in a display of affection. whose own lives are just a cold companionship? D0 you
.. feel that all affection and devotion should be suppres- sed hem"! mafriflffe. or do you feel, as we do, that it only strengthens our love and holds us together more permanently?
TWO PERPLEXED COUPLES
x ANSWER: A cynic said once that there were cer- y‘? taln things that were worse than immoral. They were ' bad taste. -
Nothing so titterly marks n boy and girl as having no social back. ground and no knowledge of the world as to make n display of their emotions for every grinning Tom, Dick and Harry. I never see a girl with her head pillowcd rm a young man's shoulder in the movies, 0]!” Pl YQHHH 601N119 hugging and kissittf-Z in a car, that I do not think tint lf they only knc\v what figures of fun they looked they would rather die than put; themselves in such n ridiculous attitude.
SHOULD BE PRIVATE
There is something sacred about the love between a man and a woman, and the ‘expression of it should be as private as possible. To make n public display of this feeling is to vulgarlze it and rob it of its finest thrill.
As to a continual display of affection promoting love, that ls also a mlslilkP- 4 YOU Ci"! get as much fed up on petting us you can on a ‘steady diet of chocolate creams. And don't make the mistake nf thinking that because n married couple do not advertise their affec- tion for each other, they have ceased to love each other. Their love has become so much a‘ part of their lives that they take it for grant- ed, and under their quiet attitude toward each other ls u devotion that IS as much stronger than your boy and girl love as the current of a deep river is stronger than that of’a babbling brook.
DEAR DOROTHY DIX: We three sisters are almost distracted because our father, now 67 years old, is about to marry again. The lady is a fine woman, 52 years old. Has a good home. So has father. And we three girls make our living, but we want our dad to stay with us. He ls active, fills a position every day, hut we think he l5 mo old to marry. He‘ has been so good to us. Sacrificed everything to give us nn education. We are now from 21 to 30 years old. Surely he is wrong and would be happier with us. Let that old maid stay where she is.
. THREE SISTERS ANSWER: 6on1 forbid the hanns. Believe me, children have even less right to interfere in their parents’ marriages than parents have in their children's. You don't want your father to marry and thereby secure n companion for himself, but I wonder how many dates you turn down because you have a standing date with your father? It is pretty lonesome for father, sitting up evening after evening lJY lllmsvlf. with nothing to do after his eyes have got tired reading. And it is ro great pleasure to him to know that. one of you three girls is taking her turn at staying with him as n matter of duty. Nor docs he look forward with any pleasure to having to give up his own home someday and going to live with one of you when you get mar- ried.
And perhaps it never occurredvto you that young people bore old people just as much as old people bore young people. What old people want is the companionship of someone who is of their o\vn age, wlin knows tlio things they know and to whom they can say: "Don't you remember?"
Let your father go along and marry if he unnts to. He will be n lot happier with that nice old maid than he will be with you.
DEAR MISS DIX: I am n young man hopelessly in love with a Rlrl whom I expect to marry early next June. My family object to my marrying any girl because of the financial loss to them in being deprived of my earnings. If I marry her, shall I take her to live with my people? » H. L.
ANSWER: Never. Because if you do, they will make her per- fectly miserable and you will be in s continual fight trying to keep the peace between them. Marry your girl and go and live in one room, if necessary, and let that be far from your mother.
DOROTHY DIX cannot reply personally to readers, but will ans- wer problems of ,, nernl Interest through her column.

I have referred several times to the 670CEllEllt work being done by the American Hearing Society foi the llard of Hearing in bringing the attention of editors. school boards. parcnis, and the public generally to the fact that about 1 person ln every 10 has a hearing defect, ranging. from slight loss 'of hearing to total dcufness. In children it is estimated that. at; least half of lll€Se cases can be saved from becoming permanent- ly hard of hearing if treatment is given in time.
A communication from Dr. Stew- art Nasli, President of American Hearing Society. states: "Hearliit: loss, which may occur at any age. i5 usually gradual, and the “Wlfllllilg signs are frequently unnoticed until it is too late.
