Questions Answered by Dorothy Dix Even More Than It Needs a Good Five-Cent Cigar This Country Needs a Good Nickel Girl, Who has Pity Her Boy Friends' Pocketbooks and Finds Happiness in Simple Pleasures ffif of figuring and asked themselves if the pleasure they got out of taking Sally Ann out for the evening was worth what it cost them and the answer has only too often been: "Nothing doing." Likewise, they have tried to figure out how much it would cost to make a girl happy for life when it took a week's salary to give her a good time for one evening, and that has been a problem in higher mathematics that has left them bachelors. Of course, the girls of today, with their higher educations and their ability to hold down good jobs, are very scornful of all that mother knew, but when it came to handling men and getting a husband mother knew things that daughter has never found out and she possessed a technique that makes daughter seem a blundering amateur.

And they positively thought nothing of having two or three birthdays a year, and plainly suggesting wrist watches and $50 bags and such like as suitable small tokens of remembrance on the happy occasion. Wooly Wyns It Is reported that the girls in sev-e -al colleges have taken a pledge not tn call for drinks costing more than a nickel when they are taken out for a good time by their boy friends. This is literally a stepping out in the right direction, for undoubtedly the reason that girls have fewer beaux than they used to and that there has been a decline and falling off in matrimony, as Mr. Wegg would say, because they have made the cost of living so high that It has been practically prohibitive. Apparently they have gone upon the assumption that every youth is the son of a millionaire and that every clerk gets the salary of a bank president and that he simply yearns to blow in his income on giving pleasure to the dolls.

Hence the flappers' theme song has been the old Negro minstrel ditty: "No Cheap Man Needn't Come Around," and the price they put on their society is all that the tariff will bear. $1.00 ffti And the secret of mother's success was that she touched a man's pock-etbcok lightly before marriage. She befooled a man into thinking that a wife was an inexpensive luxury that would cost him hardly anything at all to maintain. She was delighted with a few flowers, or a book, or a box of candy. She didn't warn him, as girls do now, that if he married her she would keep his nose to the grindstone the balance of his life.

But, alas and alack, millionaire's sons, with pockets overflowing with grands, are met with almost as infrequently as Fairy Princes. Nor do the emoluments of junior employes put them in the champagne class. Sad to say, most young men come of poor but honest families and their pay envelopes are thin to emaciation, and if one takes a girl out who demands to be entertained as if she were a Princess who could only feast on nightingale's tongues, it sends him to the hot-dog stand for food for the next month.

When a youth called of an evening, she didn't come down with her hat on, asking "Where will we go?" Instead she led him to cozy back parlor, In pursuance of this policy, girls who have walked to save their own carfare have demanded taxis when their dates took them out. They So in demanding too much of boys, girls have scared off the bird that produced the golden egg, for naturally the boys have done a lot OREGON. HOLLY GRAPE Block No. 35 This legislature chosen emblem is a shrub of-rare beauty, a species of barberry with edible fruit.

It has leaves like real holly, berries similar to huckleberries, is not a climber like ordinary wild grapes and has a yellowish red wood. One interesting thing about this plant is that a certain species of wheat rust can not continue without changing its habitation periodically; it must live part time ruining wheat and part time on this barberry or holly grape. That is like the yellow fever germ it must have both the human body and a certain mosquito to complete its round of life. Changing the state flower drawings into quilt blocks is a rather simple process. Each is transferred through a sheet of carbon right from this paper onto a block of muslin.

sateen or broadcloth 9 inches wide by 7 inches deep. In embroidering this block the holly grape may have some of the berries in satin stitch, or be all In outline as desired. Use two values of violet, dark for most of them with some front berries lighter. Leaves are dull green and coppery brown, stems copper with tiny stems light green, blossom end of berries dark green single stitch.

Perhaps this spending a quiet evening at home, with something good to eat that didn't set the man back anything, isn't so exciting as dancing to a jazz band and making a tour of night clubs and speakeasies, but the one leads to matrimony and the other one leads away from it. There is nothing in a rowdy night club to turn a man's thoughts toward domesticity nor is it likely that any man ever proposed to a girl with the blare of a saxophone and cowbells in his ears. Nor have the men that girls drag to such places often enough money left to pay for a wedding ring after they have settled the checks for synthetic gin. We prefer to steam our puddings in attractive molds suitable to send to the table. The melds may be individual or there may be one large one.
