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. wise boy does a bit of courting of his girl’s mama and gets her on his side.

Worn at a saucy angle, over the right eye, it is ever so chic. Open Crowned Off-the-Face There are open crowned hats, and off-the-face ones—the former often being the latter—if you get what 1 mean. For the average lass, the off the-face models are taboo, he ad vised, so don’t buy one unless you are TWO DISCOURAGED GIRLS from a small town SOS saying that they are of good family, nice looking and have good reputations, but sit at home night after night trying to find some thing to do. They are determined, however, now vacation is coming, not to waste it in doing nothing. The girl interest older boys and boys in other towns, but get little at tention from their home town lads. They have oodles of girl friends, how ever ,and they are practically in the same boat. “Please suggest a ‘course of action’ for us to take,” they beg. I can hardly imagine a group of lively young girls finding nothing par ticular to do in vacation time, even if boy friends and dates are few and far between. I can think of several things to suggest. Why not form a club for reading aloud, one doing the reading while the rest sew, crochet or ‘ knitt? Read travel books, bi ographies, etc., as well as novel. 1 * You’d be surprised what a good time you’d have. Have you a plac% to swim? Do you like to like? How about tak ing up music, drawing, painting, photography, bird study, writing? Why not have a short story club and each write stories to be read in meet ing? I bit your English teachers would like that. How afout learning to be swell cooks? How about tennis, golf, bicycling? The boy situation will solve itself. By the end of the summer all of you or the majority, will be dating regularly. But don't waste a grand and glorious summer by sitting around and twid dling your tumbs. Xon’ll be so busy some of these days you’ll wish and wish for some of th; lovely leisure you now have and don't know what to do with. than you feel you want, and plan meals of lighter foods. Good home made cookies are a boon in hot weather. They keep for days, and are good served with ice creams, sher bets. berries or other fresh fruits, or cookies alone may furnish the des sert. Today's Recipes Canned Salmon. —Remove the chilled contents of a can of salmon that has been in the refrigerator or other cold place for some time. Drain off oil, and place on platter, keeping as whole as possible. Serve with slices of lemon or, if you prefer, with mild vinegar and cucumber.

You don’t want your too frank friends to say, “Where in the world did you get THAT?” We’ve seen some girls who reallly looked frights, hence the warning. They are good if you’re the cute type. If not, heaven forbid! White linen models, with wide, flar ing brims, mind you, are not so hard on your visage. They are nice to wear with summer cottons. coa, and a pint of milk. Mix dry in gredients, gradually add cornstarch, and cook over hot water until thick. You may add eggs if you wish. Pour into individual serving dishes, sprin kle with chopped nuts, and top with a little whipping or plain cream. Or the chopped nuts may be added after the pudding has been removed from the fire. A teaspoon of butter added while pudding is hot gives it a smooth taste. FACTS AND FANCIES Hot Weather Desserts Let your refrigerator do the work this summer because it can solve most of your dessert problems, says 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. • LEWIS LUCKENBACK TO FACE DIVORCE LITIGATION SAN FRANCISCO, July 16 (TP) The executive vice president of the Luckenback Steamship Company, Lewis Luckenback. faces a separation suit today.

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 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.
