jam closet and being allowed to choose your favorite jelly from one of the dark shelves? Recipes for old fashioned strawberry preserves, as well as for other jams, butters and jellies will rekindle memories of those childhood quests. Even if there's only a spare shelf in your kitchen cupboard it ought to be filled with jars and glasses for very "special" occa sions. Here are several recipes for preserving spring fruits that are general favorites: Strawberry Sunshine (Cherries or Raspberries May Be Substituted) 6 pounds 6 pounds granu berries lated sugar Select ripe, perfect berries. Wash well, drain and remove hulls. Add the sugar, mixing with a fork.

Going to Marie's for a house party. And am I thrilled! She says Jack will be there and a cousin of hers who is traveling East. I'm hunting tennis outfit and a spectator dress Mom said I could get what wanted. Why don't you come along and help me pick them out? Julia was one of the older girls in the Good Taste club.

She and Millie shopped like mad, talked like whirlwinds, and ate lunch like two starved creatures. During the session Mildred learned about the good times ahead. "Gosh, Mil, I'm sorry that you aren't going to be ra3 "I am going to a house party; and am I thrilled!" there." So was Mildred. And when Nancy heard about it she felt that it, was too bad that Mil dred had not Jearned how to be a good guest. The reasons, in her case, were not hard to find.

Mildred was gushing sort of person who always raved over everything from food to fun. She did so much talking superlatives that finally people began to discredit everything she said. The house was "marvelous," the food "dee licious," the show "dee vine," the party "gorgeous." Had she kept some of her enthusiasm out of her speech her listeners might have believed at least a part of what, she said. Then she made herself too much at home. She took it upon her self to answer the telephone, if there was one in the room, when it rang.

She brought in the mail and looked at all the postmarks unce, in an unguarded moment she picked up an open letter which her hostess' mother had left lying on the desk and read it through, She had one other trait that made it difficult for a hostess. She made friends easily, talked to the neighbors on each side of the hostess' home, told her hostess what a hard time the girl next door was having because she was seldom asked, anywhere, "so I told her she could come with us to the show. That's all right, isn't it?" What could her hostess say but "yes." It so happened that the relationships of neighbors on that street was formal and exceedingly city like in its isolation. It wasn't a guest's place to set the social pace. Nancy has a leaflet on "Manners at Summer Resorts." It's new.

They work at the same office. She is 25, she says, and he is 20. She has been engaged for six years. She shows a warm interest in him. They have been out to lunch together but he never has asked for a date.

He won ders if he should let her engage ment stand in the way. The engagement in itself would be enough, but the fact that you are so much younger than she is, Herb, is another good reason why you should not let yourself think of this woman as a heart interest Her interest in you is the interest of a good friend and a co worker. She finds you a nice young chap and she wants to encourage you to bigger and better things in a business way in order that you may fit yourself for a successful future. You want to make contacts with girls of your own age, or even girls who are slightly younger. And when you do you'll find it much easier than you now suspect to supplant this woman in your affections.

You know you're playing with fire when you poach upon anothers preserves, and especially so when the woman is so much older than you are. It isn't the natural or the usual thing for a woman of 25 to have the same interests as a young man of 20. She has passed through the period in which the pleasures and amusements that mean so much to you have the same satisfying effect upon her. She of a more serious turn of mind now. She's thinking of the future and she is ready to settle down with her fiance.

You aren't old enough for this and few boys of your age are in a position financially to think of such things for some years to come. It isn't in the game of life that you should have to assume such responsibilities until you have had. your fun and are ready to settle down. And you want to have your fun with girls of your own age, whose hearts are in the same things yours is. That's the way to make the most of your youth, to derive the greatest amount of pleasure from it.

Were you to mention a date to this woman, whose heart is all bound up in another, it would put an entirely different status on your friendship. She would feel the necessity of withdrawing entirely, and you would lose a good friend. (Copyright, 1937, by Chicago Tribune in. x. isews syndicate, Inc.) ANNOUNCE MARRIAGE Waynesboro, June 24.

The surest way to keep your teeth intact is to visit your dentist at regular intervals. Six months is the usual period. This precaution, with reasonable daily care, eliminates the fear of loss of teeth because of decay or pyorrhea. The old buggaboo, fear of the dentist's chair is taboo now, because with all the new devices dentistry is rendered vir i tually painless.

Even if there is a little pain connected with the examina tion, it's worth it to save your teeth. Just keep in mind that the longer you put off that visit to the DONNELLY dentist' the greater your chances or being hurt will be, when you finally get up your courage. Have cavities filled when they are tiny, before nerves become exposed, and the inconvenience you suffer will be virtually nil. The local care to prevent decay is a careful and thorough brushing of the teeth morning and night. If it's possible to remove food particles after each meal, so much the better.

Use dental floss to clean out any particles of food remaining between the teeth When you brush the teeth mas sage the gums. In this way you stimulate the circulation of the blood around the teeth and the gums and there is less chance of decay. The use of a mouth wash is an excellent practice. Rinse the mouth, and force the liquid between the teeth. Lime water makes an excellent mouth wash and it is an inexpensive item.

It be made at home with little effort. The type of food you eat has much to do with the condition of your teeth. Include foods which supply the body with the necessary minerals and vitamins, and avoid sweets in quantities, also foods that are sticky and mushy. The teeth need to be put to work, given plenty of chewing on coarse foods. It's possible cavities may form in spite of regular care because some parts of the teeth are so dif ficult to clean thoroughly, and again one's general health condl tion may be the cause.

But that's where the regular visits to the dentist do effective work. They keep a check on cavities, and keep the teeth free from tartar. If tartar is not removed, and allowed to remain on the teeth, it causes pressure 'on the gum and the tissues surrounding the roots of the teeth, and may be responsible for the development of pyorrhea.

Mil, Jll Q. Is a white horse more easily visible than a black one in total darkness? A. Neither would be visible in the absence of light rays. Visibility is ob tained by the reflection of light rays. and there are none to reflect in total darkness.

A The custom of spectators at a baseball game standing up during part oi ine seventn inning, is said to have originated in the old days of pine boerds without backs that served for seals in ball parks, when arising and sti etching about the seventh inning was a natural result of a desire to relieve cramped muscles. Then came the notion that it brought luck to the heme team to stretch in the seventh. This was because the number "seven" has always been associated, from remote times, with a belief that it was "lucky." The custom simply grew, until it has become universal.
