Dear Miss Flo: When a young man asks your company home and you have company, what should be your answer. (2) When a gentleman asks a young lady to be his Wife, what should be her reply if she wishes to marry him? (3) What sort of a gift would be proper to give to a young man for a birthday present? (4) In having a box supper, is it polife for a young girl to describe her box if she is asked to do so by one of her boy friends? (5) When a lady is asked by a young man her age, should she tell him? (6) Is it out of the way for an engaged couple to kiss good-night. Thank you. PEGGY. (1) If you have an escort home, tell the gentleman that you have made arrangements for going home. (2) That’s a rather difficult question to answer, Peggy, as it depends entirely upon the girl’s nature and her emo tions. Suppose, for instance,' John says to Mary: “Mary, darling, I love you, and want you to marry me.” If Mary is a modern, frank young per son, and she is sure that she wants to marry John, she will probably say: “I also love you, John, 'and will be very happy to be your wife.” Then, again, Mary may be a little shy, and she may not be quite ready to say “Yes.” In that case, she will tell him something like this: “John, dear, I like you very much, but I think I would like a few days in which to think it over.” As a matter of fact, Peggy, there are few real proposals. By the time that stage of love is reached, where a man wishes to marry a girl there is just a sort of an understanding, and before they know it, they are planning their lining room, furniture, curtains, etc. And if there should be a really honest-to- goodness proposal, Mary’s own feel ings will guide her speech. (3) If you wish to give a boy friend a gift, why not make it a carton of his fav orite cigarettes, a book, initialed handkerchiefs, or some other small gift that will be practical and that will be sure to be appreciated. (4) It doesn’t show very good sportsman ship to describe your box to the boy with whom you would like to share your box. The idea of the box sup per is, more or less, a game of chance, and the gentleman is supposed to take a chance upon getting the box belonging to the girl he would like to have supper with. In other words, it would be cheating and giving the boy an unfair advantage to describe your box. (5) It is permissible for the lady to tell the gentleman her age if she wishes. (6) An engaged couple may kiss good-night. THRIFTY TIPS By MISS FLO Cocoa: If a pinch of cloves is ad ded to cocoa when making a cake it will improve the flavor. Hair Brushes: If hair brushes are washed with soda instead of soap, the bristles will remain stiff and white. Soap softens the bristles and does not clean as quickly as soda. Civic Association Resumes Meetings The Civic Improvement Association Teacups: If your teacups are badly stained, try washing them in a mix ture of salt and vinegar. It will re move all spots. Stockings: The colored silk stock ings that are so popular now some times look very faded after washing. To avoid fading, use one tablespoon of borax to each two quarts of warm water. Wash quickly and rinse will meet next Tuesday afternoon at 'th oroU ghly j n clear water. Do not A o’clock in the club rooms and all' • members are urged to be present. During the summer the meetings have been omitted but with the Septem ber program next Tuesday they will be resumed during the winter season. ^Each member is asked to bring sand wiches for two and in addition to the regular program, a social hour will he enjoyed. Methodists To Remember Orphans Broad Street Methodist Sunday School To Observe “Orphanage Work Day.’ hang in the sun. Clothes: If clothes are sprinkled with warm water instead of cold they will be ready to iron in a few mo ments. Roll theih tightly in a damp towel and iron in ten or fifteen min utes. Bums: It is a good idea to keep a solution of alum and water bottled in case of burns, etc. It applied at once, this solution will prevent blis tering and also relieve pain quickly. White Stockings: If white silk stockings are washed and dried at night they will not turn yellow as * Saturday, September 20, will be quickly as they will if they are dtied observed by Broad Street Methodist j n t j, e light, church congregation and Sunday School as “Orphanage Work Day. Saucepans: After cooking oatmeal Heretofore, the day has usually been ^he pan can be very easily cleaned observed in October, but it has been found that September is the more desirable time, as many of the chil dren can earn something for this cause by picking cotton. Due to the boll weevil, the main cotton picking time for South Carolina is earlier than used to be. On account of inclement weather on last Sunday, the announcement did not reach as many of the workers of the Sunday School as was desired and the superintendent requests that all people take notice. Envelopes will be distributed at church and Sunday School, Sunday, 21st. by filling with very hot water. Empty the hot water and fill with cold. The oatmeal will fall away from the sides. If you have never seen “The Flapper Grand mother” watch out,she’s coming. Cakes: To remove cakes from the tin, try placing it on a wet cloth for ten or fifteen minutes. The cake will come out without the aid of a knife and will not stick to the pan. SAVANNAH FRIENDS VISIT ORPHANAGE Dr. and Mrs. A. L.
