She further stated that It was a
school established by the Presby

teachers to be had in those day:
‘Why. we had foqr from Bostor

HOUSEHOLD SCIENCE

Girls, its al! right tc have your
ideal*. Wonderful, in fact! Tall one*
with gorgeous brown eyes and curly
brown hair art* good—even square-
shouldered, athletic blor.ds will do.
Everyone to her own personal tastes.
But r member, when you really want
to select your husbands, steer shy of
those ideals, ideals sl ould never be
reached; they should always be a lit
tle higher. And ideals would be so
perfect that you would not have the
fun of remodeling them to make
“model husbands.”
There are some other points to be
remembered in making your selection.
Do not be guided by the silvery sheen
as in buying mackerel nor by the gold
en tints -as if you wanted salmon. Be
sure to select them yourself, because
tastes differ. Do not go to market
for them, as those brought to the
door are always best. However, it
is f ar better to have none at all,
than not to learn to cook them prop
erly. Use thi tough round steak for
example; it is a’most useless except
when cooked in the correct manner.
And so it is -nth hushands. Some
women keep their husbands constant
ly in hot water; others freeze them;
other- put them in a stew; while still
others keep them in a pickle. Do not
do any of these things, girls! Hus
bands managed in this manner will
not hi* good and tender.
I)o not keep them in the kettle by
force, for they will stay there them
selves if the proper care is taken. If
they sputter or fizz, do not be
icus. Some husbands do this! See
that the linen in which they
wrapped is Vicely mended with the
required numbur of buttoii-. Stir
gently, but when needed. A little
spice improves them when used with
judgement, but use no vinegar
pepper on any account.
When thus treated, you will find
husbands to keep as long as you
want.

she was devoted to her work and to
her pupils, tnat her disposition
Iways gentle and kind and that she
,-as “the sweetest of sweet women.”
There was silence for a few mom
ents, after which Mrs. Terrell looked
up with twinkling brown eyes and
said, “I remember a dress she used
to wear. It was green worsted with
red dot in it.”
Then Mrs. Terrell began to ques-
on me about G. S. C. W. After a
Umughtful moment she turned to me
and said, “In my day a girl had to
have a real moral courage even to
think about working. But now,”
she concluded, “the grand wonder of
the age is that all girls arc fitting

ALONG MY GARDEN WALK
By Rath Lowe
It doesn’t matter with me
Whether *t be
September, January or May;
Just so I oan see
All colors and hues so bright and
pay;
Along my garden walk.
I have an old fashioned border,
With colors sorta’
Mixed so everyone will see,
A quaint order
Can live today as in ’C3;
Along my garden walk.
Come anti stroll along with me
Beyond the tree;
And count my combinations rare,
And try to see
Grandmother’s quilt outlined there;
Along my garden walk.
