( Problems 1

Marrying a Widow.
Dear Miss Allen: I am 28. I have
been a widow for the last few yeare
and have a boy of 4. I hold a very
good position and have no financial
worries. My mother is rearing my
child.
I am going about with a man five
>ears my senior. A great love exists
between us. in fact, it is his first love
as well as mine, for my former mar
riage was very short and unhappy.
Now this problem has arisen from
the start: This man has always had
a dream of marrying a girl and start
ing out in life together on the same
basis—both single. When we first
met he thought his life's dream was
realized and at one meeting told me
so. Not having had the opportunity
at our first two meetings of telling
him about myself, I naturally told
him everything when he declared his
love for me, as I had no Intention of
deceiving him.
What I revealed, he claims, has not
altered his love for me. But at the
same time he insists that his dreams
have been shattered.
I, on the other hand, claim he will
overcome this Bo-called disappoint*
ment as we understand and care for
each other. My mother Intends to
bring up my child.
To me It seems that his friends dis
courage him against a marriage of
this sort. But if he cares enough,,
should this count? I cannot give him
up, as I feel he can make up to me
for all the sorrow I have had and I
try to impress upon him that realities
count and not dreams.
Can you advise me how to face this
problem? WORRIED.
That you are a widow should not
count against your married happiness
with the man you love and who loves
you. Nor should the advice of his
friends be permitted to come between
you and him.
Soon your friend will realize this if
he loves you. Then he will wish to
marry you. Until he does propose
marriage, however, do not base your
hope of happiness on his loving you
—for asking you to be his wife is the
test—and the only test—of love that
is deep, understanding and true.
This man is Indulging in a foolish
sentimentality and I don’t like him
for hurting your feelings with his
nonsense.
Troubled Mind: A girl who donates
her precious Saturday afternoons off
to work without pay for a former em
ployer, is at least foolish, and is very
probably attracted to the employer.
A man -who will accept such service
is rather contemptible. But since you
are neither the employer nor the em
ployed, and are you even sure of
your facts, I don’t know what you
can do about It. At least try to be
kindly and tolerant In your attitude,
and do not borrow trouble. Any fuss
you might make wouldn’t alter the
facts In the case, whatever they are.

The Genius Back of a Five
Cent Cafeteria Which Pays
_i
A rolling, roaring, reverberating
rumble. The clink of dishes. Lunch
eon Is on at Central High school!
In two onslaughts the students
surge down the stairs to the cafeteria.
\ACissJCaU in
[Jj hcyh photo llJ
They seize their plates, separate,
girls from boys, and go through the
line for food.
Between 12 and 1 o’clock from 1,400
to 1,500 students and teachers are
served, a record for speed and num
bers not exceeded by any school In
the city, and probably not by any
downtown restaurant or cafe.
No dish costs more than 5 cents
Consider the Date!
Following are some recipes for
using dates for school lunches and on
the home table.
Date, Fig and Nut Sandwiches.
1-2 cup (1-8 package) dates, 1-1 cup
figs, 1-4 cup almonds, cream to mois
ten.
Put fruit and nuts through a meat
grinder, moisten with cream so mix
ture will spread nicely, and spread
between thin slices of bread. Figs
may be omitted.
Flummery.
Two cups steel cut oatmeal, 8 cups
cold water, 1 teaspoon salt, 1 cup
(2-3 package) dates, 1 tablespoon but
ter, 2 tablespoons syrup or honey.
Mix the oatmeal with the cold
water, bring to boiling polt and cook
for 15 minutes. Add salt, place In
cooker and leave overnight. In the
morning add dates cut In small
pieces, butter and syrup or honey.
Cool and serve with cream.
Rice and Dates.
Two quarts boiling water, 1 table
spoon salt. 1 cup rice, 1 tablespoon
sugar. 2-3 cup (1-2 package) dates.
Add rice slowly to boiling water
and cook until soft. Drain and dry
off In warming oven, covered cloee
ly. Let dates, and sugar simmer 5
minutes In one-half cup of boiling
water. Make border around the dish
with the boiled rice, lightly heaped
up. Fill center with dates anj> serve
with cream.
' '* - --1,11
and the variety la most tempting. It
Includes one soup, one hot meat, po
tatoes, an extra vegetable, two kinds
of sandwiches, bread at 1 cent, muf
fins, a variety of salads, and desserts
of dainty puddings and custards
topped with whipped cream. Ice cream
and cake. Hot chocolate, bottled milk
and cocoa malt are the choice of
drinks.
Miss Mable Carter is the genius
back of all the order, system, cleanli
ness and health which mark this cafe
teria. She has been at Central High
since coming to Omaha four years
ago front the high school at South
Bend, Ind. She is a graduate of the
Lewis Institute, Chicago, and la an
expert dietician, having served In that
capacity during the war.
And the cafeteria pays! One remem
bers, of course, that no rent day
comes ’round. But there are salaries
for 12 women who from 7:80 In the
morning until 3:45 p. m. work In the
kitchen and back of the attractive
counters where the dishes are spread
for quick selection.
Everything is made first hand ex
cept the bread. Forty loaves of large
size sandwich bread are used a day;
seven trays, holding 630 sandwiches,
are made up each day; 125 pounds of
meat are ordered dally; 180 plates of
salad prepared and five bushela of
potatoes consumed, and 350 bottles
of milk.
Tt’s always fun on special days.
Then, the generous cuts of cake are
topped with white candy pieces.
Santa Claus If It happens to be
Christmas time, a white lily for
Easter, the donkey and elephant on
election day and a plump yellow
pumpkin or proud gobbler at Thanks-,
giving season. Friday what could It
be other than a slogan traced In
writtlng on a white mint, "Beat
Tech.”
Like other managers, Miss Carter
likes her customers.
"The children appreciate every
thing you do for them,” she says.
Legislator Former
“Bee” Reporter
* |
For the first time In Its history
Nebraska will have women legisla
tors. The three, chosen by the elec
tors at the recent election, were Miss
Sarah T. Muir of Lincoln, Mrs. Clara
O. Humphrey of Mullen and Mrs.
Mabel A. Gillespie of Gretna.
As Miss Mabel Gudmundsen, Mrs.
Gillespie was a reporter for two years
on The Omaha Bee staff and was a
member of the Omaha Woman's
Press club.
She attended the grade schools at
Ord and Superior. As a student a^
the Nebraska State Teachers’ col
lege at Kearney, she assisted in the
psychology and English departments,
thus working her way through school.
W. C. Gillespie, her husband, is a
farmer.
I
Needlework Chic.
It'* the style to decorate baby
things now with cross stitch. Use
delicate colors, such as pink an<}
blue, with a touch of green to make
small motifs look flowerlike. Baby
sweaters, kimonos and sacks of flan
nel or cashmere are all effective
trimmed thla way.
Pink voile makes a dainty bed
spread when embroidered In black
outline stitch wild roses worked In
natural colors.
Plan the boudoir cap of silk or rib
bon to cover the hair at the place
where wavers are used to conceal
them. The lace or insertion can be
used between or on the edge.
To make a lovely scarf for evening
use either white georgette or net. or
flesh color If you prefer, and bind
the edge with metal ribbon. Then
make a floral motif of colored rib
bons on each end. A scarf of pale
blue georgette Is charming beaded
with silver beads.
Three petaled flowers are easy to
make for the evening frock. Use a
double fold of taffeta or radium silk
and fold the double edge to form a
point- Gather the bottom of each
petal. Join all three and cover the
center with large black French
knots. The color combination Is
what will make it smart. Use strik
ing contrasts If possible, such as
black on gold, crimson on bright blue
or orange and green.
Handkerchiefs may be utilized If
they are the gay colored sport ones
of linen or voile for bureau scarfs or
collar and cuff sets. Use three large
men's size for the scarf and cut two
smaller ones In two for collar and
cuff set.
If there’s a scrap of glazed chintz
left over from the curtains or bed
valance, either pink or plcot the two
edges of a six-inch strip and then
pleat it for boudoir lamp or candle
shade. The pleating can be done by
basting first and then pressing with
a hot iron.
