HEPPNER GAZETTE TIMES, HEPPNER, OREGON, THURSDAY, OCT. 31, 1929. PAGE THREE Ttofe or th9 by Nancu fart Have you noticed, of late, the vogue for gay quilts and comfortables? For years, In the artificiality of an other age, the decorative possibil ities of these pieces have seemed half-forgotten. Now suddenly en couraged by today's demand for de sign and contrasting color they have come back into fashion again. And so Important is the subject that it has broken Into print to tell its own fascinating story through the pages of a thick new book "Old Patchwork Quilts and the Women Who Made Them" in which the author gives not only a complete history of the quilt, but also de scribes 310 different patterns and illustrates many of them. It is a book to intrigue every girl and woman who dreams of a beautiful home. And the story seems particularly apropos, since the gay, colorful patchwork theme with its geometric patterns is so thoroughly in harmony with the modern trend in home-furnishings.

S. to Make Education Survey The Impartial survey of Oregon's Institutions of higher learning, pro vided for in the law creating the joint board of higher education, will doubtless be made by the United States bureau of education as a re sult of action taken by the board at Its first meeting at Oregon State college. The board voted to open negotia tions with the federal bureau at once, which under normal condi tions would get the survey started early in 1930. The board also grant ed permission to the college to lease additional land for the experiment station farms and to add two lots to the campus. Br E.n howe 7h& Sefe ofPohhttlT Stubborness. Amateur Writing. Drunkards. A reader asks: "What actuates a stubborn man?". . . Answer Mean ness: Scare him sufficiently, and he will come out of It I find satisfaction and value in the writing of amateurs. Their halt ing fear of an audience, appeals to me, and I am more readily disposed to approve than when I pick up a book of an old professional like Bernard Shaw or H. G. Wells. Both these men (and most of the noted) display contempt for us readers too frequently, whereas by reason of our great number, we have accom plished more than the few authors with all their skill manipulating the make-up box. ... I find very good things in amateur writing. I have before me a modest book by Alfred Hitch, published by the author In the usual amateurish style, from which I quote samples: Virtue is its own reward; anything else Is a bribe. . . . Not to fear is not cour age, but Insensibility. Courage Is to fear and still attempt . . . The possible always happens sooner or later. . . . The less people have In themselves the more they seek the society of others. - . . The Rubaiyat of Omar Khayyam celebrates that disgusting trait In man to get drunk when anything goes wrong (where as adversity is the precise time one should remain sober). It is not strange that In the custom of "treat ing" a friend, the custom is to offer him poison that should go to an enemy? . . . Dogs are dogs whether they are under or on top. . . . The only Immortality of which man is worthy would be that of preserva tion in alcohol with other reptiles and Insects; and two or three speci mens would be enough. . . . Give me facts, and I will not ask for truth. . . . The Russians and Germans cheerfully followed their sovereigns through pillage and murder, and turned from them only when they failed. I have never been able to under stand a drunkard. Every man may be pardoned for making a fool of himself occasionally; and, if a man is behaving when we hear of his folly, it helps with the public. But the folly of the drunkard Is con tinuous; he punishes himself every week or every day, and knows the loss is greater than the profit; not one drunk in the many he has en gaged in has paid him. Therefore how does such a man satisfy his conscience? An old drunkard tells me the exhilaration of a good stiff drink of whisky lasts forty minutes. For such exhilaration one pays with busthead lasting several hours; In the case of a drunkard, he pays witn the contempt of everybody. Unless heir to a fortune, he accepts the unnecessary disgrace of failure and poverty and even If born with a silver spoon In his mouth, he soon spews it out, and substitutes pewter. What is the philosophy of the drunkard? Or of the idler, the bore, the dead beat or other per sistent violator of rules of human society? They have excuses, but usually these are merely exercise in the trade of a liar, wherein one In sults himself with further Injury. Family Will Like Them if You Fix Them Right Do you have to thrust vegetables upon your family, insisting that they eat them "because they are good for you" or do you make them so attractive that the family de mands them? It's all in the man ner of preparation, says the home economics department of Oregon State college. For instance, it is essential to keep the vegetables whole or in uni form attractive pieces, and to pre serve the natural color as much as Would You buy a car WITHOUT 4 -WHEEL DRAKES BALLOON TIDES.?

And cook them the short est time possible till they are bare ly tender. Longer cooking detracts from color and flavor, and Injures the vitamin and mineral content so that little Johnny has to eat twice as much spinach to get the neces sary amount of food value. Allowing many vegetables to stand after cooking before being served also often causes them to become strong In flavor and unat tractive in appearance. If all these points are observed, and care is tak en to vary both the kind served and the manner of serving them, the family will soon begin to enjoy their vegetables. DRINK MORE MILK Wise old Mother Nature made milk for children. Into it she put every thing needed for sustenance, and in the most easily assimilated form. So, Drink More Milk.
