"But, come to think of it." she adds, "the bride does the same thing. If she doesn't leave the cards with the presents, she tells people who gave what.

In both cases, nevertheless, I think it should be sufficient to let friends look at things without emphasizing the names of the givers." In answer to this, while it Is entirely proper to leave cards on wedding presents when there are several hundred, leaving them on Christmas presents or anniversary presents would be very unusual, since such' presents are shown to few persons and, therefore. It is simple enough to explain (if you want to, or if asked) who sent what In other words, leaving cards on wedding presents avoids the no small task of repetition. You might remember, however, that while etiquette says, "cards may properly be left on," there is no rule that they must, or even should. Accepted Salutations Dear Mrs. Post 7s It the general Impression that "My dear Miss Smith" is formal and that "Dear Miss Smith" is used as the salutation in a letter to a friend? I have been teriting "My dear" when I intended to be especially friendly and now I learn by accident that it is the formal beginning end not the one I intended at alL Answer In the United States "My dear" is less friendly than "dear." Ia England the reverse Is the rule.

Don't worry about it, however, since comparatively few people consider it of importance. In Making Coffee Make sure that your one-cup-a-day la the best coffee possible. The quality of the brew depends upon several things-fresh coffee, accurate measurements, and the technique used. Patterns I ''X A BETTB DAVIS PAUL HENREID Starring in "Now, Voyager" going into third week at the Stanley. Good Morning! Roast Veal Is Suggested For Dinner Sweetbreads, Creamed, Given As The Breakfast Choice By Eleanor Purcell Where two or more housekeepers are gathered in these days one is pretty sure to hear how hard it is to get the kind of food to which we are accustomed how it is necessary to take what one can get and be thankful.

Naturally, the degree of thankfulness to be found in the family depends largely upon the ability of the housekeeper to make the most of what is available, and so far we have faced no real hardship where food is concerned. Certainly there is no hardship about a dinner with roast veal as the piece de resistance, which Is the choice for tomorrow. For breakfast creamed sweetbreads is the choice, and, for supper, some of the cold veal sliced, with a lettuce salad and hot rolls. Creamed Sweetbreads A pair of veal sweetbreads will give a good dish of creamed sweetbread plenty to serve a family of six or seven. Try this: Cover the sweetbreads with cold water for half an hour.

Drain and cook in salted boiling water for 20 minutes. Drain and cover with cold water until cold enough to make handling them easy. Remove the tubes and skin, breaking them in pieces. If beef sweetbreads are used cook until tender, 30 minutes or more.) In a saucepan melt 2 tablespoonfuls of butter (or butter substitute), stir in 3 tablespoonfuls of flour and add slowly lVa cups of milk, stirring constantly over the fire until rich and smooth. Season to taste with salt, cayenne and paprika; add the sweetbread and let all heat thoroughly.

If desired, parsley may be added, cup of sliced mushrooms or V4 cup of thinly sliced or chopped green pepper. Muffins Take 2 eggs, 1 level teaspoonful of salt, 2 cups of milk, 23A to 3 cups of flour, 2 tablespoonfuls of butter and 3 teaspoonfuls of baking powder. Beat the eggs until light, adding the salt and milk. Add the flour (sifted) and beat the mixture until smooth. Stir in the melted butter and beat again.

Finally stir in the baking powder, mixing it through well. Have your pans well greased and hot; pour in the batter and bake in a hot oven. They will take about .15 to 20 minutes, according to the size. Cream Of Asparagus Soup Take 1 can of asparagus (that cut in small pieces will do), 2 cups of cold water, 3 tablespoonfuls of butter, 3 tablespoonfuls of flour, 4 cups of milk, 2 slices of onion, salt, cayenne and white pepper to taste. Drain the asparagus, cover with the cold water and simmer until tender.

(If desired, pick out tips from other pieces and reserve for use whole.) Press the asparagus through a sieve, rubbing through as much as possible, reserving the water. Scald the milk with the onion. Remove the onion. Melt the butter, stir in the flour and add slowly the milk. Continue stirring until the mixture is very rich and smooth.

Add the asparagus with the water in which it cooked; stir well together, season to taste; let heat up and serve. If tips are reserved, heat and add just before serving. Savory Dressing Have your butcher make a pocket in whatever cut of veal you buy and fill with this dressing, then roast in the usual way: Take 2 cups of slightly stale bread Movie House Offerings "Silver Queen" Occupying Screen At The Mayfair; "The Cat People Being Shown At Hippodrome By Donald Kirkley "Silver Queen" (Mayfair Theater) Is a film which glorifies the American gambler and gambleress. Folding money is tossed around in such abundance that one expects at any moment to see one pi the characters light a cigar with a $1,000 bill. Fortunes are made and lost with the utmost complacency, in Wall Street and the elegant casinos of many cities.

The hero, George Brent, is so' rich, he has beefsteak for breakfast. The story begins in 1873, in New York, where Mr. Brent runs a palace of chance and puts part of the proceeds back in circulation at fashionable char ity balls. At one of these he meets Pris-cilla Lane, daughter of a silver miner (Eugene Pallette), who is pitting his cartwheels against the bears of Wall Street. Miss Lane has gambling fever in her blood, and is the champion amateur poker player of Fifth Avenue.

Daughter To Pay Father's Debts She is engaged to Bruce Cabot, one of the bears, but it is obvious from the first that Mr. Cabot is a slicker, and the odds on Mr. Brent winning the girl are 10,000 to 1. But he is a sluggish and cold-blooded suitor, and the film drags on for years before he pops the question. Meanwhile, the girl's pappy has lost all but the silver mine in a panic and died from the shock, leaving a horde of creditors.

Honest Jane, they might have called her. for she vears that sh will pay back every cent. She proceeds to do so by means of the only talent she possesses, that of filling inside straights. Card Sharks Win Out She and Mr. Brent drift around the sucker circuit, separately, for years, each earning huge sums.

Mr. Cabot stays in New York, stealing the money his fiancee sends for the payment of the creditors, and thinking up ways to get his hands on the mine. Finally all the characters meet in Nevada City, and there the wicked broker gets the punch on the nose for which he has been asking. The happy card sharps fall into each other's arms, and the audience rushes out to look for the nearest roulette wheel. -The Cat People" Another Balkan superstition is dramatized on the screen in "The Cat People" (Hippodrome Theater).

It is about a Serbian girl (Simone Simon) who believes herself to be a descendant of medieval witches who had the power to turn themselves into man-eating leopards of the black variety. She has come to New York to rid herself of this fear, and marries a nice young man (Kent Smith) in the hope that she will be able to lead a normal existence. The marriage is not successful, because she is afraid that if she' gives him just one kiss, this will set off the ancient curse, and cause her to regard him as nothing more than porterhouse on the hoof. Turns To Another Girl Even in these days of rationing, this seems a bit drastic, so she refrains, and in consequence her husband turns to another girl (Jane Randolph) for consolation. Naturally, the man thinks his wife is pimply off her trolley, and hires a psychiatrist (Tom Conway) to give her the old q.

and a. Before long, the psychiatrist turns into a wolf, following the new American tradition, but this Little Red Riding Hood from Serbia turns the tables and settles down to her first good, square meal in the picture. Spooky And Absorbing The legend has been staged effectively for the most part, by virtue of Nicholas Musuraca's photography, exercised amid first-rate settings, and Jacques Tourneur's direction. When the film is dealing with the supernatural, it is quite spooky and absorbing. The romantic interludes are commonplace.

Miss Simon takes the cat role in her stride, and is turning out to be an excellent actress, after alL The others do as well as need be. Dorothy Dix Third Year Is Regarded As The Zero Hour For Marriages Performedln This Country When is the zero hour in marriage? The end of the seventh year is the critical time, according to an English justice who has tried many divorce cases. He thinks it is especially dangerous for women because they are still young, still good-looking, still avid for the flatteries and cajoleries and love-making which their husbands have stopped giving them. Hence they fall easy victims for any attractive man, with a slick line, who "understands" them. The same authority also thinks that it is about the same time that husbands begin to develop a wandering foot.

A lot of the gilt has rubbed off of the ginger bread of marriage for them. It is no longer a matter of thrills, but mostly of bills. They have grown tired of looking at the same face across the breakfast table, and their eyes begin to roam around in search of a prettier and fresher one that they are only too apt to find. Three Years Here In this country, where all life is speeded up from the cradle to the grave, the disillusions of marriage come quicker, and it doesn't take the average couple more than three years to reach the danger line. They find out that marriage isn't the perpetual petting party they thought it would be, and that instead of being two souls with but a single thought, two hearts that beat as one, that they are practically, strangers tc each other and far more apt to quarrel than to agree.

The wife has found out that her husband isn't the noble hero she thought she was marrying. He is a fussy little man who growls if his dinner is ten minutes late, and who swears a blue streak if his collar button rolls under the bureau. And the husband discovers that his wife is not the angel of his dreams, but a woman with temper and nerves and queer ways, who is a poor cook and a bad manager. Babies Blamed And if there are babies who tie them down at home of evenings when they are longing to step out and go places; who keep them awake at night with their squalling, and who put them in debt for certified milk, patented foods, doctors' bills and the million other luxuries that modern babies seem to require, it is no wonder that the husband and wife -are tempted to call marriage a failure and throw up their hands and quit. Particularly is this true in the cases where a boy and girl, who have been reared in comfortable homes, get married and attempt to live on the small salary that the bridegroom earns.

They have fallen for the romantic propaganda that love is enough and that they can subsist on bread and cheese and kisses. But. alas, after marriage they crave lobster thermidor and filet mignon just as they did before marriage, and have the same interest in new clothes. Haven't The Price Also, they discover that while love is the meringue on the lemon pie, it isn't the filling, nor even the pastry, and that it takes a number of things besides sentiment to keep moderns happy and contented. Such as going with the people they have always gone with, belonging to their old clubs, being able to afford some amusements, not having to count every penny.

i So it is no wonder that so many matrimonial barks crash on the rocks of reality so early in the voyage. Scandal Added To Griefs And yet, if men and women only had the courage and the wisdom to fight through this dark hour that comes to almost every marriage, how many bitter regrets they might save themselves, how much lasting happiness they might achieve. For divorce does not cure the hurt in a wounded heart, nor does it comfort loneliness, nor are illicit love affairs a panacea for a disappointment in marriage, they only add scandal to all the other griefs. But to the husband and wife who realize that marriage is no more static than anything else and that they have come to the danger point in theirs, and who meet the situation with bravery tnd intelligence, there is a rich reward. They may have to steer warily among the mine fields and weather many storms, but they will come at last to the smooth waters and have a safe harbor in which to anchor when they are old.

BY THE BENTZTOWN BARD (Folger McKinMv) It was only a glad "Good Morning" As she passed along the way. But it spread the morning's glory Over the livelong day! Carlotta Perry. THE GATES OF BEAUTY Ojva the gates of beauty And let us go wandering in Out of the storms and danger, -Out of the grief and sin: The gates beyond whose portal Shineth in grandeur still The light of the high immortal Clear glow of the heavenly will. Open them up in the spirit, Open them up in the heart. Let us be happy, or near it, By striving to do our part: To lay on the roads before us The beam of our cherry ray To weaken the wind of the chorus That the angels of glory play.

Transcendent above all evil, Holy in beauty they shine, The gates of the heavenly spirit. Of the loveliness divine: Spring is beyond them glowing, Roses are lighting the gloom; Rivers of music are flowing. And love is beginning to bloom. B. B.

Over The Hill Over the hill from the old farm this morning a mockingbird sat on the feeding table utterly indifferent to all about him and paying no attention to me as I went by and told him not to be afraid, I wasn't going to hurt him. He has been coming back every morning for the past week or so, as have the redbirds and the blue jays and the junkos. Military Women I was surprised to see that dignified gentleman, Mr. John OHen, speaking In the "Spillway" the other day of "numbers of our military women that are no strain on the eyesight." So he looks at women, does he, at the WAACs and the WAVES? Well, I do, too, and my considered opinion is. that a great many of them are too fat and roly-poly to be considered as good specimens of female pulchritude.

Maybe war service will slim them down a bit, I hope. A CANDLE IN THE WINDOW The heathen are sunk down in the pit that they made: in the net which they had hid is their own foot taken. Psalm ix, 15. Good People We are good people in this country. I have not heard a single one of us make any complaint over having to get along with one chip of butter, one cup of coffee and one spoon of sugar.

Little Sharing our little with the more That others have to share, you see How mighty grows the bulk before The needs of law and liberty. Our little with another's much, And his with ours, and all so gay The world goes on beneath the touch Of brotherhood in common clay. B. B. Pilduzer Park Uncle Pilduzer Is wonderin' whether he is right or wrong in thinkin' that wars are won by soldiers and not by politicians.

Cannot Say I cannot say how things may be, I cannot call the turn on life. I only know that love still sings, That peace is mightier than strife. B. B. crumbs, cup of butter or butter substitute, 1 tablespoonful of poultry seasoning, 1 rounded tablespoonful of finely chopped onion, Vt cup of minced celery and celery leaves, 1 teaspoonful of minced parsley, salt and pepper to taste and not water to moisten slightly.

Melt the butter, add the onion and cook until clear. Mix the rest of the Ingredients, add to the butter and toss from the bottom until well mixed. If the dressing is very dry, sprinkle with a little hot water just enough to moisten slightly. If too wet it will not be so good. Boiled Custard Take 4 egg yolks, 2 cups of milk, 16 cup of sugar, a small pinch of salt and vanilla to taste.

Bring the milk to the scald. Beat the egg yolks until smooth with the sugar and salt, stir into them the scalded milk, mixing well. Pour into saucepan, and stir until thick and smooth like rich cream. Don't overcook as the custard curdles easily. (Should it curdle, place over cold water and beat vigorously with egg beater until smooth.) Cool and season.

Float Take the whites of 4 eggs, a pinch of salt and a small glass of currant or other tart jelly. Put all together in bowl or platter and beat until smooth and stiff enough to stand alone the longer the better.
