But the average housewife is strohgly advised to follow the directions closely when she uses a recipe, particularly these days when a failure in the kitchen' can add worrisome costs to the food budget. Home economists claim many of the common pitfalls in cooking can be avoided. They stress the absolute necessity of following recipe direc- tions carefully and using level measurements and standard spoons and cups. "A variation in the amount of a single ingredient," they say, "can often medn the differ- nce between a tasty delight or a Pniserable failure."

My parents (since deceased) were extremely pleased by the match; otherwisé..I believe I would haye taken much longer to make up my mind. How I wish that I had! His - cruelty to me, and to our two children, was so harsh and our pastor, I took the childre d moved apart from hint four years ago. We live in a different suburb of the city, a block from one of my. married sisters. I never see my hughand nowadays, and 1 have a good position that frees me of sinancial worries. . The problem is 'that two years ago I fell genuinely in love, for always, with Jay -- one of eur supervisors. And ' he. has been equally in love 'with me from the tart. Were we able to marry, our arriage would be one of those "made in heaven,' 1 assure you. But our faith doesn't countenance divorce -- and I am only separated from my husband, without a divorce or annulment. DEJECTED SUITOR As things are, Jay and I seem to be dying a slow death. We are too religious to live comfortably in sin; yet to live entirely with- out each other is impossible for us. We are at our wits' end. Prayer hasn't helped us; pastoral counsel hasn't helped us; and I don't think we gan go on as we are much longer. In my, mind at least, I have be- gun to waver in'my allegihnce to God. I have begun to believe that He, who is so mighty, does not need me as Jay does. But I am a coward before Him; I am afraid as I am. Poor Jay's unhappiness is killing me: But I am not at'all brave enough for suicide; nor de I even contemplate it. My spiri- tual adviser is a good and wise man, but he has not been able to help me. Can you? : ASKING THE IMPOSSIBLE Dear P. F.: You say prayer doesn't, help, pastoral counsel hasn't helped; and can I help? What kind of help are you seeking? Are you hoping somebody will speak with. a voice of High- er Authority, to hush .your conscience with . assur- ances that it's all right to do what you fear is wrong? Are you hoping to turn up a magic formula that will erase the past; or cancel out your particular brand of char- acter-molding -- and, xing up the curtain on a brand new start in adult life? When you pray, what; gist -- '"'Lord give me' MR 1 want?" I imagine so. But the bet- ter LCT would, RAR duis ADSE | dane ~ 4 A, me the way; give me strength to do." On the surface, your story has a good deal of appeal. You sound sensitive, con- scientious, deserving -- that sort of thing. But feeling into the sit- ruation, one encounters a marsh- mallow kind of weakness, in your behavior as well as Jay's and a foggy refusal to differentiate be- tween reality and wishful thinking. If poor Jay, as you. call him, is s0 unstrung by pre frustration that his disconsolance is "killing" you, then it is probably a blessing in disguise that you lack courage to marry him. And aside fromm that I am not sure he wants to 'marry. If-he clings to an attachment lab- eled hopeléss, acting stricken but faithful, while endorsing your theory that marriage is "'out' for religious reasons, he is suspect of being a sham suitor.

You and I and our children con- stantly strive to feel worthwhile and to cause others to think that wé are. It may not be, of course, our conscious purpose to. do sa. Human nature prompts us to seek self-importance unawares. . One way we have, when we are not watching ourselves, of gaining |* feelings of self - importance is by teasing him. Now at the moment | doing so unde: we tease another person, we con- sider him less important than we w | Hollywood Highlights By BOB THOMAS "Hollywood (AP) -- The crooner is on the decline, says John Carrol): Of course, he could be Bre} diced. He is one of those sin who could shatter windows if he opened up. "Some of my best friends are crooners," he remarked. "And I'm sure they're still going to be around and making money. But as far as I can judge, there is a change going on in the kind of singing the public wants. "I believe there are. styles in singing, just as there are in music. I remember when jazz became the rage, since 1 was brought up New Orleans where it was born. And I remember when crooning first became popular. Gene Austin was the first one. Then came Rudy Vallee, Colombo. 'Lately there has been a new trend. It was started by the success of Ezlo Pinza in 'South Pacific.' Then Mario Lanza made a big hit. The success of their records has brought a big demand for the kind of singing that requires the full voice. People are not only willing but eager to hear classical and semi - classical numbers, instead of pop tunes." Carroll just returned from play- ing an engagement at Houston, Tex. The trend away from croon- ing 'was impressed on him at his opening night. "I had a bad strep throat and fever of 102," he said. "But I jabbed myself full of wonder drugs and went on. I.couldn't sing full voice and I thought I could get by with crooning. After the first num- ber, the crowd started getting restless. After the third number, they were ready to throw things. The reviews in the papers the: next day were brutal." Carroll has his own methods of dealing with crowds. When he gets a noisy audience in Texas, he tells |. them, "all right, if youll shut up now, I'll sing for you." He said the Texans dont mind being treated roughly. One of the pioheer women of a century ago made her way to the nearest eity, eighty miles away, to obtain vaccines with which she vacéinated her family and neigh- bors aghinst the then prevalent smallpox. Vaccination is still im- perative if smallpox is t6 remain & rare disease of this country.

GUISE UM & Ac the husband takes & 'dirty dig" at his wife in the pres- ence of other wives or husbands, r. the guise of humor, Or she, instead, is the teaser. Next time you attend a small informal social gathering where there are numerous married couples, just look for saniplés of this phenome- non, For the same reason a bachelor uncie, grandfather or an occasional father will téase a young child just to se¢ him get angry. The adult who finds better. ways to feel im- portant doesn't do this, but gains De from watching the child \develop as a happy person and tributes to this development. 't let your adult relatives and fr ends tease your child. Better to relations' than to permit such barity TEASING BY CHILDREN Also you should prohibit exces- sive teasing by ome child of an- other, if you can. But this is not easy. Punishment is only a tem- porary measure. You need to work on the subtle cause of the teasing-- some aspect of jealousy, a fedling by the teaser that he doesnt get ras much attention and approval, doesn't rate in the family group as well 'as the brother or sister he teases: or his fears that he might lose the favored place he already Usually the teaser is Lo? i asst child or one next to the ba by. By teasing he gains a feeling of se! importance; and the more the child whe is teased is annoyed, the greater the satisfaction the teaser gains. Even when punished for his teasing, he may get increased attention, which he may consider far better than little or none at all, FEELING OF SUPERIORITY Occasionally a younger child will tease an older one and get | the older angry enough te harm the teaser, so the latter can tattle on the older and enjoy seding him punished. Most tattling is a kind of teasing with a purpose (usually un- ¢onseious) to gain a feeling of superiority. Though most parents expect the older child always to give up te the younger, the younger often is the teaser or aggréssor.
