W!!! T0 IISIGN IN SUCH OASIS
Six months ago. the Joneses de- cided they were fed up with bridge and agreed in toss it out of their lives.
For s couple who has accepted bridge invitations for years to de- cide suddenly thai they will have no more of the game isn't easy.
But the Joneses stuck by their decision, and they are pleased with the change.
Neither of them really liked the ‘game. But when they were new- comers in their town, in an effort to be congenial they accepted in- vitations to play bridge. Pretty soon they found they were spend- ing -s good many oi their evenings playing a game that was, for them, no recreation at all.
They also discovered e were spending a. lot of time with people. brought together by a bridge table. who weren't really congenial or stimulating to each other.
A good many people at one time 4
or another find themselves in e po- sition similar to the Joneses. They are wasting time on_ something. simply because they haven't enough determination to put it aside. And determination is really sll that it
takes. .
If you find yourself dreading to have the Browns to dinner, then it's time to give up the Browns.
If you are s banger-on member of a. club or organiasdon that no longer interests you, then it's time to resign.
If you're always wishing you had s little more free time, then cut out some of the useles activities

TEEN-AGED! WANT T0 DRESS ALIKE
Allow your young daughter to dress like the other girls in her crowd, and you'll have a happier teen-ager on your hands.
To insist that she dress more individually is apt to be a mistake. The normal teen-age impulse is to want to merge into the group; not to stand apart from it.
Every mother who prizes her own individuality in dress natural-
"m eqervi
ly wants io help shape her daugh- ter's taste. That's as it should be. However. bewilling in. wsit until the time la ripe for fashion train- ing. It will come, but not until the apple of your eye overcomes a self-consciousness which la typical of her age group. While she is go- ing through the self-conscious oor-, iod, she wants to look like all the other girls in her crowd. Her re- action to any dress that makes her look "different" will be. a. feel- ing of sheer misery. ‘ _ Mothers who realize this and bow to it when clothes are chosen will be able to kick nestiy aside one of the big stumbling blocks that interferes with s pleasant "parent-daughter- relationship.
‘wean near-rs common r0 sou
Most women worry too much a- bout the physical signs that they are growing older. They pay too little attention to the less obvious indications that they are growing old in ways in which they needn't grow old at all,
They think the signs of age that

And tile! are often unaware o! the more important signs of age.
A women is letting herself grow old when she:
Stops making new friends and settles for the companionship of one little tight-knit group.
Is unwilling to do things on spur- of-the-moment invitations". l
Takes a sour view of life -_snd always expects the worst.
‘Feels sorry for herself because he: children don't need her as they‘ once did -lnstesd of welcoming her new leisure, snd using it for her own enjoyment of life. '
Gets more enjoyment in discus- sing the lives o! other people than in making her own life interesting.
Starts living through the lives of her children-getting the satii- fsction from their accomplishments she should be getting from her 0WD.
Dwells on small annoyances and unpleasant incidents - instead of taking them lightly.
It is habits like these thatem- phasize a woman's age -fsr more than the physical signs she finds
really matter, are the grey hair, the

Mix in all the corn- post you can, snd lacking compost use peat moss. Then after the seed is sown, cover with this special soil. which will not form s crust

This treatment is especially im- portent in hot weaih, when most soil is liable to bake into s hard crust. _
Soil must be firmed above the seeds. to form close contact, and prevent air spaces from separating tihe soil and seed.

nUnzr-riv KITCHEN cannvsrs ARE ONLY THE
BEGINNING, BBIDES Kitchen built-ins are the base snd wall cabinets of varolus de- signs, sizes, shapes and materials that. combined with the sink. stove and refrigerator, make up the con- temporary kltchen of our time. The average bride of today takes it for granted that the kitchen of her new home will be equipped fully with cabinets. She doesn't realize that built-in kitchen cab- inets aren't much older than she is. But kitchen planning is still in its infancy. Each year sees new refinements as to size. ideas. work- ability and flexibility. The height of base cabinets finally has been standardized at 36 inches. This is right for the medium-height wom- sn and can be used comfortably by the short woman. If you are very tall, you can have your base cabinets blocked higher for your comfort. Some base cabinets are designed with a. ioe setback four inches high and three inches deep. Wguid you rather have this or would you pre- fer the work surface to have an extra over-hang, extending fur- ther than usual over the cabinet face? For example, the average cs- blnet is 26 inches deep. The coun- m- bop could be 28 inches and the toe» space eliminated. Bottom wall cabinets should be hung above the counter space lb to 18 inches. Some housewives and architects insist upon furring in the space between the tops of the wall cabinets and the ceiling. This space may be used for enclosed storage -otherwiss it will be be- come a dust and dirt catcher.
Wood or Enamel Cabinets may be made of wood,

All wood should be seasoned thoroughly and all steel carefully designed and cleanly made. The steel-type cab- inet is better for damp climate: where there is danger of mildew. In this case, they also should he guaranteed rust-proof.
The doors of cabinets used in warm climates may be slatted, lou- vered or of the tambour type This allows for s complete circula- tion of sir and some dust, bui most people prefer it to the musty smell a too-tight cupboard can de-
velop. The doors may be eithcr the hinged or sliding type.
Cabinet shelves may be alidina or stationary, solid or grilled.
Novelty Designs
Each manufacturer today has wall and base cabinets with novel- ty designs. Some have file dividers for trays, pie tins, pot covers, bak- ing dishes. Others have special devices for hanging cups snd stack- ing saucers and plates.
Cabinets are made from it to i5 inches in width, so that you can assemble the types you like atter you have selected s sinlr stove and refrigerator.
