ANNE HURST
Perhaps ,you, too, married one of
those inarticulate :nen who seethe
to have 'forgotten how to kiss you,
and never, Clever remembers to tell
you he loves you. Read one wife's
complaint:
"I am 32, Anne Hirst. My mother
died when I was born, and I can't
ever remember
my father telling
pie he loved me.
I have always
felt unwanted,
that no one
cared for nae.
Now I've been
:married 14
years, and have
two girls. But
I still feel the sante way.
"My husband doesn't drink or
gamble or run around, and I know
I'm lucky that he is good to me.
I know he loves me -but I'd still
like to hear him say so! I get up
at four o'clock to pack his lunch
and get his breakfast; docs he say
'thank you' and kiss me good-bye?
No.
"You work hard all day cleaning
the house, taking care of the chil-
dren, fixing a nice supper. He
eomes in, picks on the children till
they cry, then raises coin because
they aren't quiet while he cats. He
talks only about his job. Never a
word about how nice you look, or•
how the house shines, or how things
went that day!
"You say to yourself, 'Orli well,
he'll talk to me after supper! You're
only kidding yourself. Then he
wants the paper, and the children
mid I aren't supposed to talk out
loud, or laugh, or sing. He reads
the paper from front to back (in-
cluding your column, so please
print this; maybe he'll realize )tow
much we all miss his love.)
"You think, after he's through,
maybe he'll talk a while, or take
you out. You guessed wrong. He
toes to bed.
How long can you a woman
ire like this? I'm not old yet. I
e to visit our friends or go to
a show. But I could get along
without those.
It is the lac): of love I feel. Why
be a man so dumb that he can't
say so? I can wear a stew dress
for a month before he even notices
it! Some day I'm going to forget
to clean up the house and the
children and see whether he knows
the difcrence. (I doubt it.)
"I guess there' no use in hop-
ing. But at least I feel better to
loet this off my chest! Thanks a
t for reading it"
(Sighed) Loveless
* TO "LOVELESS": Women
* blossom under appreciation. A
* little word of thanks, a kiss given
* as though the plan means it, an
* awareness of all you have done
* during the day -these small
* things are what keeps a wife
* young and alive and attractive.
* Your husband is selfish, with-
* out meaning to be. He takes
* everything that you do for grant-
* ed, assumes that the home cleans
* itself; he pays no attention to
* his children - those youngsters
* who would respond with love
* and confidence if he would only
* let them know he cares about

Brief Answers

Modern Etiquette
uettte
by Roberta Lee
Q. How should the forks be ar-
ranged at the plate, when setting
the table?
A. The fork to be used first is
placed at the extreme left of the
plate; this is usually for fish or ap-
petizer. Second, towards the plate,
place the meat fork; third, nearest
the plate, the salad fork.
Q. When writing a brief social
letter, may one use the first and
fourth pages?
A. Yes, either the first and fourth
or the first and third, leaving the
other pages blank,
Q. Is it all right for a woman,
who is dining in a restaurant, to
place her purse on the table?
A. No, never. The purse should
be kept in her lap.
Q. When introducing two per-
sons, is it proper to sac`, "Mr.
Brown, I wish to slake you acquain-
ted with Mr. Smith?"
A. This phrase could not exactly
be called improper, but the prevail-
• ing introduction and the easiest is
merely, "Mr. Brown, Mr. Smith."
Q. Is it permissible for a business
or professional woman, who mar•
ries, to retain ler maiden name for
business purposes?
A. Yes; this is often done, when
the maiden name has become estab-
lished and has advertising value.
Q. May a woman retain her coat
in a restaurant, instead of checking
it?
A. Yes; it may be slipped over
the back of her chair.
Q. Should all numbers of the
family remain at the table until the
meat is finished, even if there are
110 guests.
A. Yes; this is good training. The
person who is not well-bred when
at home is likely to display the
same manners when in public.

Putting Up A Gana,e Battle -Marion, a small leukemia patient, being treated at the Hospital
for Sick Children. There is no known cure fok• leukemia, or cancer of the blood as it is some-
times called, but research workers are hoping that - WITH YOUR HELP - eventually
substances will be obtained that can control or cure this dread disease.
TABLE

As I think I may have told you
before Pm the sort of person who
can take my peanut butter or leave
it alone -preferably the latter.
However, that by no means
indicates that there aren't plenty
of others 'who do like it very
much, in fact it seems to become
more and more popular every year.
So perhaps you'd like to have
this recipe for easily made:
PEANUT BUTTER MUFFINS
2 cup sifted all-purpose flour
or • 24 cups sifted pastry flour
4 teaspoons baking powder
3 tablespoons sugar'
1 teaspoon salt
1 egg
cup peanut butter
2-3 cup milk
I cup water
1 tablespoon shortening, melted
Mix and sift flour, baking powder,
sugar and salt, 'Beat egg until light
then add peanut butter, milk, water
and melted shortening. Add liquid
to flour mixture all at once, stir-
ring only enough to combine. Fill
greased muffin tins 2-3 full and
bake in a hot oven over 400 I'.,
for 20 minutes. Yield: 12 muffins.
VARIATIONS: To make a de-
licious sweet muffin to serve for
tea or supper, fill muffin this 1/3
full with tie above mixture. Add
r teaspoon jam or jelly to each
muffin, then add more batter until
muffin tins are 2-3 'full,

You've probably heard of the
small boy who was taken to a
museum where they had an exhibit
of many different sorts of 'fish -
stuffed and mounted. Pausing be-
fore one lapelled "SALMON" he
said scornfully, "Whoever put that
sign up must be goofy; I thought
everybody knew that salmon comes
in cans."
And although the development of
the Frozen Food business has made
fresh fish far more easily avail
able, there are still a lot of us. who
live inland, who still get most of
the fish we eat out of cans. Tlerc's
a way of serving it that may be
new to some of you.
SALMON ROLL
1 pound can salmon (or any other
fish, flaked and boned)
aft
3d cup mayonnaise
2 tablespoons chopped parsley
teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon lemon juice
1 teaspoon 'minced onion
dash of pepper
Biscuit dough.
METHOD: Mix all the ingredi=
ents together until well blended,
then make your favourite biscuit
dogh. Roll out into a 7x15 inch'
rectangle and transfer to a. lightly
greased heavy baking sheet. Spread
salmon mixture down centre of
dough to within two inches of either
end.
Fold over the edges. Roll over
so lengtwhise seam is underneath.
Tuck the ends under the roll; Make
slashes along top for ;steam to es-
cape Bake 12 'to 15 minutes at 425
degrees. Place on hot serving dish.
Garnish with lemon wedges and
parsley. Serve trot with creamed
vegetables, such as peas or aspara-
gus. Serves six to eight.

There are probably hundreds of
different types of Cookie Jars, but
they all seem to have 'orie thing
in common. Especially in !tonics
where there are youngsters around,
they all have a way of getting empty
in amazingly little time. Next time
it happens in you• hone, try these:
MOLASSES DROP .COOKIES
1 cup fat or' shortening
1 cup sugar
2 eggs, beaten
1 cup molasses
Scups all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon ginger
1 teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon soda.
2 cups chopped raisins or dates.
2 cups chopped nutmeats
(optional)
1 cup waren water.
METHOD: Cream fat and sugar;
add eggs and molasses. Sift flour
with ginger, salt and soda. Al-
ternately add flour and water to the
fat, sugar and egg mixture. Mix
well.' Add raisins and nuts. Drop
by teaspoonfuls on lightly greased
baking sleet. Balce at 375 degrees
for 10 to 15 minutes, or until cook-
ies spring back when lightly touch-
ed. Wlaen cool'put in cookie jar and
try and, think of new place to hide
it.
GENTLE SPRING
Watchmakers have their own sign
of spring -the mainspring. When a
deluge of watches with broken
mainsprings arrives at their shops,
they know the vernal season • is at
hand• Spring thunderstorms and
showers bring an abrupt change in
temperature and air pressure, 'and
tax the brittle steel ribbons until
they snap.-
* * *
An obstetrician should be able to
tell the arrival of spring by observ-
ing thv size of the babies he delivers.
Infanta born in the spring are taller
and heavier, on tlae average, than
those born in other seasons, accord-
ing to statistical studies made at
Johns Hopkins University.
It's a common belief that many
people suffer from extreme fatigue
when spring arrives 1- so -nailed
spring fever, But a biologist at
Rensselaer Polytechnic reports that
these beliefs are in error. Spring
fever is only a mild forst of scurvy,
he declares, due to vitamin -poor
diet in winter months - particular-
ly, vitamin C deficiency.
* * *
Police in Whte Plains, N.Y., don't
bother to watch for a robin. When
they begin to receive complaints
that baby carriages are interfering
with pedestrian traffic on Main
Street, they are sure Spring has
arrived.
CORRECT
Heedless of an inpatient queue
behind him, a Scotchman et 'a
Grand Central ticket window count-
ed his change very carefully three
times.
The tieketseller watched
sourly. "Well," he said, "are
finally satisfied it's right?"
"Aye, mon," said the Scot angrily,
"but only just right."

COCKER SPANIELS
OF all the dogs that are so sweet,
The spaniel is the most completes;
Of all.the spaniels, dearest far
The little Cocker spaniels are.
They're always merry, always hale;
Their eyes are like October ale;
They are so loyal and so black; "
So unresen'tful 'neath the whack;
They never sulk, they never tire;
They love the field, they love the
fire;
They never criticize their friends;
Their every joy all joy transcends,,
The Aberdeen is quaint and sly, •
A harvest of the anxious eye;
The Bedlington is blue and true;
The Airedale fights -till death for
you;
Yet why compare? All dogs on
earth
Possess some special charm and
worth.
But Cocker spaniels? Every way,
They are the canine angels, they.
Helpful Hints
For . Homemakers
When baking custard or pumpkin
pies, place the empty pie shell in the
oven first, then pour the liquid fill-
ing into' it. Not a drop will be spill-
ed, as .might happen in carrying k
• filled shell to the oven.
4' 12 t:
To get rid of the smell of fish on
your hands, wash them in hot, salty
water - before using soap. When,
you rinse off the salt, the fish smell,
goes with it. Do the same with
dishes and pairs that have been used
for fish.
When you carry Baby, wrap as
piece of clear plastic material (a
small -sized tablecloth would work
fine) around the outside of the
blankets. This prevents lint and
blanket fuzz from rubbing off onto
your clothing.
