I go out with a young man la the army once a month, and my father objects to my bringing any boys or girls home. He says I am too young to invite any young man or girl to the house.

We have corresponded since then, and now he baa asked to take me out to my girl friend's home My mother has met him, but not his parents, and knows nothing about them, and she will not consent to my going, as she believes It .Is Improper for a girl eyer to go out with a man unless she Intends to marry him. Do you agree with her? I am 17 and he Is two years my senior. Will you please advise me whether tt la proper for me to go out with him. M. S. C.

Pie crusts often do not roll well and have to be patted onto the pan. They do not need chilling before baking." Summer Salads Fresh vegetables and green salad foods must be washed immediately upon reaching the "kitchen. After washingshake water from lettuce and endive leaves, put , off any clinging moisture, wrap in a tea towel or put into lettuce bag and keep cool until used. All fresh vegetables and fruits must be thoroughly washed, dried, and chilled to give most satisfactory results for the salad course.
