BOY’S ‘IN DUTCH’ WITH GIRL’S MOTHER
VIRGINIA LEE ADVISES HIM TO HAVE HEART-TO-HEART
TALK WITH PARENT.
By VIRGINIA LEE
It seems to me that if I were a
young man who cared for a girl, and
her parents objected to her going
with me, I would find out) what was
wrong with me. in their eyes, and
try to overcome their objections.
Mothers and fathers are only hu
man, you know, boys. They have their
little prejudices. And they seldom get
used to the friends their children
choose to fall in love with. Mother
will introduce son to the sweetest girl
—in mother’s estimation—and son
won’t be able to see her for dust.
And heril begin raving about a girl
his mother thinks Is not St all in
his class and absolutely unsuitable.
Like as not he’ll marry her, too.
And the same with daughter, she’ll
shut her eyes to the virtues of the
proper young man who is te ideal
partner for her, according to dad and
mother. And will bring home the
most ordinary type of fellqw who ab
solutely fails to make a hit in any
way with the parents.
S. J.: If I were you, I would go
to the girl’s mother and ask her plain
ly what she thinks is wrong with jpu,
and see if you can’t fix it up. I wouTd
think, from what you ten mS, that
the girl likes you all right, but she
feels she must do as mother says, and
so is trying to give you up.
Make a dc.te with mother, and have
a heart to heart talk with her. Maybe
you have been thoughtless of her,
and she f»-els that you wouldn’t be
a good husband or son-in-law.

They have oodles of girl friends, how

I can hardly imagine a group of
lively young girls finding nothing par

if boy friends and dates are few and

things to suggest. Why not form a
club for reading aloud, one doing the
reading while the rest sew, crochet

Esther Kimmel, in August Pictorial
Review.
Here’s a recipe for cashew re
frigerator cookies tht can be made
the day before and then need only
five minutes baking in the oven:
Four cups all-purpose flour, three
teaspoons baking powder, one-fourth
teaspoon salt, one-half cup butter or
other shortening, two cups granulat
ed sugar, one-half cup brown sugar,
firmly packed; two eggs, well beaten;
one to two cups cashew nuts, finely
chopped; one tablespoon vanilla. Sift
flour once, measure, add baking pow
der and salt, and sift again. Cream
butter and add sugars gradually,
creming thoroughly. Add eggs, nuts
and vanilla, and beat well. Add flour
gradually, mixing well after each ad
dition. Shape into long rolls, one
and one-half inches in diameter, and
roll in waxed paper. Chill over night
or until firm enough to slice. Just
before baking, slice as thin as pos
sible or not more than one-eighth
inch thick. Bake on an ungreased
baking sheet in a hot oven of 425 de
grees Fahrenheit, for five minutes,
or until browned around the edge..
This will make from seven to ten
dozen cookies.
NEW GLASSES FOR HOME
No matter how much glassware a
housekeeper may already have, it is
difficult to resist buying a set of the
1936 crop of summer beverage glasses
decorated with everything from well
known characters of stage and screen
to astrological designs.
Among the decorative patterns in
troduced during a showing of new
glassware held by manufacturers ex
hibiting in the Merchandise Mart,
Chicago, recently was a set contain
ing a jazz band, another which sea
tured the various consetllations, and
a third with vegetable motifs.
Flower decorated glass is back in
favor this year, and beverage sets
ornamented with bouquets of pop
pies, cornflowers, candytuft and other
garden favorites are an attractive de
parture from jazzier motifs.
One amusing set takes inspiration
from a circus, the glasses being deco
rated with camels, elephants, clo*ns,
bareback riders and other designs
suggestive of the “big top.”
PHYSICIAN WAS
INVENTOR OF
ARTIFICIAL ICE
TEMPERATURE CONTROL
OF FEVER PATIENT
HIS GOAL
By LOGAN CLENDENING, M. D.
Some of the greatest heroes of hu
manity remain unknown. We can
name the inventor of the telephone,
the telegraph, the steam engine, and
the electric light. But who invented
safety pins, scissors, gas furnaces, and
bath tubs? I am not so sure but thab
the latter group have spread more
happiness than the former.
Last year I ran across and pub
lished in this column the account of
the inventor of the spring mattress
bed. Certainly he made life more
livable.
There is another whose biography
has just been brought to our mem
ories, who certainly deserves a grate
ful thought in these torrid days—
John Gortie, who invented artificial
ice.
John Gorrie was a physician, and
the invention was quite in line with
the work of a busy eneral practi
tioner.
Dr. Gorrie, a raduate of the Col
lee of Physicians and Sureons of NAw
York, settled in Florida to practice
—in the little town of Apalachiola.
The great medical problem was fever
—malarial fevers and yellow fever,
especially.
How Control Temperature
The young doctor’s mind turned to
ward methods to control the tempera
ture. He recognized that extreme tem
peratures were destructive to many
tissues, and liable to precipitate shock
and collapse. He was aware of the
work of Currie, the Scotch physician,
on the use of cold water in the con
trol of fever.
But where in Florida, especially in
the summer, could you get cold wa
ter? Ice was preserved with diffi
culty. It had to be imported from
New England and cost a dollar a
pound.
So the young scientist started out
to construct a machine to make ice
artificially. He knew that when a
liquid evaporates it absorbs heat. But
he was not able to construct a prac
tical machine by the use of this prin
ciple. So he turned to another—that
when a gas expands rapidly it absorbs
heat. He compressed air by a pump,
then freed it in a chamber, in which
was a container with waber.
Gorrie's original machine is in the
Smithsonian institution at Washing
ton.
His use of ice in fevers was to
ventilate the sick room. In his room
he made an opening in the wall at
the level of the floor. From the ceil
ing was suspended a bucket In which
was placed a block o fice. The ice
cooled the air at the ceiling, which,
being heavier, descended and passed
out of the room through the opening
in the floor. Thus a circulation of
cooled air passed over the patient.
Dr. John Gorrie was thus the first
man to apply the principle which we
now call “air conditioning” for the
treatment of the sick room. •

CHECK OFF
YOUR BEST
QUALITIES
LIST GIVES TRAITS THAT
MAKE FOLK LIKE
ABLE
By GARRY C. MYERS, PH. D.
Head Department Parent Education,
Cleveland College, Western
Reserve University
In 1924 Prof. Donald Laird and hi*
associates at Colgate university began
an Inquiry into “why we don’t like
people,” and wrote a brief volume on
the subject in 1931. In it are listed
numerous traits which make us liked.
Here are some of them. My readers
might choose to check themselves
against these traits.
1. Can you always be depended
upon bo do what you say you will?
2. Do you go out of your way cheer
fully to help others?
3. Do you avoid exaggeration in
all your statements?
4. Do you avoid being sarcastic?
5. Do you refrain from showing off
how much you know?
6. Do you feel inferior to most of
your associates?
7. Do you refrain from bossing peo
ple not employed by you?
8. Do you keep from reprimanding
people who do things that dr/hlea/e
you?
9. Do you avoid making fun of
others behind their back?
10. Do you keep from domineering
others?
11. Do you keep your clothing neat
and tidy?
12. Do you avoid being bold and
nervy?
13. Do you avoid laughing at the
mistakes of others?
14. Is your attitude toward the op
posite sex free from vulgarity?
15. Do you avoid finding fault with
everyday things?
16. Do you let the mistakes of oth
ers pass without correcting them?
17. Do you loan things to others
readily?
18. Are you careful not to tell jokes
that will embarrass those listening?
19. Do you let others have their
own -way?
Self-Control
20. Do you always control your tem
per?
21. Do you keep out of arguments?
22. Do you smile pleasantly?
23. Do you avoid talking almost
continuously?
24. Do you keep your nose entirely
out of other people’s business?
25. Do you have patience with mod
ern ideas?
26. Do you avoid flattering others?
27. Do you avoid gossiping?
28. Do you refrain from asking peo
ple to repeat what they have just
said?
Let me urge my readers to read all
of Dr. Laird’s book entitled, “Why
We Don’t Like People” Ask your pub
lic librarian or bookseller for it.
M. E. Bennet, in that splendid
book, “College and Life," suggests the
following personal inventory:
1. List the qualities which yuo de
sire in a friend. Check off those which
you think you possess in a sufficient
ly high degree.
2. Outline ways in which you may
develop or strengthen the others.
3. List both your strong and weak
points in manners, dress, and social
skills. Outline a program for strength
ening each of your weak points.
4. What are your possible hin
drances to making and keeping
friends? How many these limitations
be overcome?

Close cropping of grass gives an at
tractive “tailor-made” appearance to
a lawn, but it is dangerous during hot
midsummer weather, for it weakens
the grass and permits it to '’burn out”
except where you have a creepfnfbent
lawn.
As shown in the above Garden-
Graph, one and one-half to two
inches is the correct height to cut
the lawn, and a two-inch stand w
better for the grass. When cub to this
height the lawn is better able to
stand drout, for the two-inch grass
acts in the same manner as a mulch,
by guarding against excessive surface
evaporation.
Cutting the grass to the two-inch
height is also beneficial, for it sa
courages stronger root growth,
