They‘ll be buffet suppers with a tasty casserole as the main dish and pickâ€"meâ€"up oddâ€" ments and served on a plaid cloth and pnewter or pottery plates. They‘llâ€" be spurâ€"ofâ€"theâ€"moment afternoon refreshâ€" ments, like cider and doughnuts of an autumn afternoon, served in a bright pottery pitcher and in painted glasses. Or an afterâ€"theâ€"movie snack of melba toast and piping hot cocoa, served in thin china cups. ‘Or whenever anybody stops in, your coffee urn can be ready to serve hot coffee topped with whipâ€" ped cream and served with Danish cup and plate is the thing here without a saucer. The gracious service of tea can be an art in itself. And it has the adâ€" vantage of being so easy to prepare and serve, so inexpensive and simple. The schoolâ€"age youngsters have discovered tea as a heartening beverage â€" they take theirs in teâ€"a mugs, which are news in practicality. But pretty tea cups with saucers and a graceful pot still have charm for the oldsters, and the stores are filled with such allurin@ ones. From Modern to Rural For _informal â€" luncheons, leisurely holiday breakfasts or casual Sundry night . suppers, â€" there â€" are appealing mother with a sense of values, who doesn‘t wear herself out doing drudgery that doesn‘t matter nearly so much as a proud fresh spirit. She‘s the woâ€" man who makes it her business to see chat the whole family helps with the work â€" without a lot of whining and arguing . . . a mother who makes an effort to ‘be good at her job. For the art of living, like any art, means not only perfection but ease; and behind that there‘is work, plefty of it. It‘s a lot easier to talk your head off, drudge dutifully but blindly, scold and let the family take it or leave it: it‘s harder and.straightens out a lot of kinks as to the relative importance of this and that. Entertaining, for instanceâ€"if you agree with Eleanor, you‘ll have a new respect for the role of hospitality in everyday life. Not the stress and strain of fermal parties but the gatety of casual family gatherings, the freeâ€" dom to brinz most anybody in most any old time and know that mother will welcome them. _ And that implies a arranged cn a kneeâ€"high tables on the floor and tea mugs, apple popovers and sharp cheese.

It‘s: more than the mere mechanics of running a house, though that‘s part of it; it‘s more than bringzing up a wellâ€"behaved dbunch of children, though certainly that‘s a very big angle. It‘s that extra thing that sometimes known as charm and someâ€" times called hospitality and even anâ€" swers to the name of: enchantment. It‘s the difference in the home that concerns itself merely.â€"the physical needs of the family and the one that ministers also to the spirit. Really it‘s a quality that hasn‘t a name, that you can‘tâ€"really define and could never buy. But you know, as soon as you enter a house, whether it‘s there. And the art of living describes it as nearly as it car be put into words perhaps.

After it was winded it started to run up a snowbank but the two men brought the train to a halt and caught it. Paris, France, Nov. 22 â€"The Inforâ€" mation Bureau of the â€"Polish Governâ€" mentâ€"tmnâ€"exile said today that the Gerâ€" man Army is conscripting Poles for military service, and unmarried Polish women for the Nazi labor service. Sault Ste. Marie, Nov. 22. â€"The story of a wolf which regretfully learned its wind gave out before the steam of a locomotive engine, was told here by engineer Jimmy Gordon and Fireman Joe McColl. The men chased the wolf â€"almost to exhaustion with their train along the tracks of the Algoma Central Railway. They then hopped from the cab and killed the animal with engine tools. Regarding the use of gas, the comâ€" munique said : "Numerous affidavits wore drawn up by health authorities at Wilno (Vilna) on this subject. The Germans aused poison gas. The bureau said all unmarried Polish women over 18 years of age in the Gerâ€" manâ€"occupied sections of Poland had been drafted for labour, and thas most leading Poles in the occupied regions had been sent to concentration camps in the Reich. "During the siegs of Warsaw they used phoszene in the suburb of Powâ€" azki, causing many deaths. Also durâ€" ing the seige of Warsaw Red Cross nurses treated persons burned by yp>râ€" ite. Among other cases, yperite was found at Prague in the bottom of a shellâ€"hole."

Discovery anywhere at sea of Floating mines, dumped overboard by the fieeing craft, offer an hour‘s leeway for escape. The pursuers would not dare close in from directly astern if they knew that floating mines might be awaiting them. Yet The Hague rules require that such "unanchored automatic contact mines" must be fitted to sink or become harmless within an hour after the "person who laid them ceases to control them." A casual reading of the conventions makes clear the gravity of the charge against Germany brought by the Briâ€" tish Admiralty. The verdict of world opinion will be rendered on whatever substantiating evidence is brought to support the charge that Nazi leaderâ€" ship, in a desperate effort to frighten all neutral shippinz away from British ports, has ignored its obligations under The Hague conventicons. Convincing cirecumstantial evidence of the source of the fAoating mines that sank half a dozen or more ships, most of them under neutral flags, over the weekâ€"end, and caused a still unknown loss of life, cannot be long in coming.

Might Be Hazard For Years A floating mine that does not conâ€" form to the rigid specifications of Ths Hague conventions mizht jeopardize lives in waters far removed from the war zones. Drifting with wind and currents, such mines could wander the seas for years, a peril of all vessels, beâ€" fore> rust and corrosion rendered. them harmless. The Hague rules provide that unâ€" anchored mines, fused to explode. on contact, may be used by warring sea powers, but only if so safeâ€"guarded as to become harmless within an hour, after they are launched. The clause permitting shortâ€"lived mines was inâ€" serted to meet a special condition of warfare. It is ‘designed to cover. the case of a belligerent war vessel, or even a fleet, feeing from a stronger enemy in close pursuit. Anchored mines must be fitted with devices to sink them or disconnect their contact firing mechanism as soon as they go adrift. A torpedo must ‘be similarly fitted to become harmless when it reaches the end of its run withâ€" out hitting anything. Laying of Mines Restricted The Hague articles further provide, in any case, that contact sea mines shall not be laid ‘"off the coast and ports of the enemy, with the sole Oobâ€" ject of intercepting commercial shipâ€" ping." They require that "every preâ€" caution" be taken "for the security of peaceful shipping" in planting mine fields. "could not have been the sinking of the Du Bolivar. "sinkâ€"withoutâ€"trace" slogan. The Gerâ€" mans have entered a denial, saying that an inquiry showed a German mine Regulations are Strict Urâ€" der Hague Accord. Whoever laid them or however they came to be floating in the sea lanes as blind and terrible menaces to all shipâ€" ping, those mines are outlawed by The Hague conventions of 1909 to which all seaâ€"using nations, including Germany, Great Pritain and France, have subâ€" seribed . The British Admiralty‘s contention that Nazi submarines have deliberately sown the seas with floating contact mines outside formerly proscribed war areas raises a graver charge against Germany than even the unrestricted Uâ€"boat warfare of the last war with its Washington, DC.â€"Outlaw sea mines, drifting in the path of neutral shipâ€" ping in the war zone to take a heavy toll of nonâ€"combatant lives, have shocked world opinion.
