At this season of the year, there
are many festive affairs taking
place. From the simple party
given in the home room at school
or graduation party, to entertain
ment for the bride-to-be. Most
young people are likely to take
part in several of these summer
time parties.
Refreshments are always im
portant when young people get
together and a punch made with
milk and ice cream is a most
appropriate beverage to serve.
Party Punch can be highly rec
ommended for its wholesome nu
tritious ingredients. There is no
resistance either on the part of
young ladies and gentlemen when
it comes to partaking of such de
licious refreshment.
Party Punch is made with milk,
strawberries and two flavors of ice
cream. It is most attractive, easy
to make, and delicious to drink.
Serve Party Punch with a variety
of small butter cookies, some gaily
decorated if you wish, and you will
find your refreshment table will be
most popular.

Automatic Furniture Manufacture

Chicago U.R) The day may

' It might involve a change in
the family's entire way of life,"
he said.
"But it'll be a much better,
happier, far more comfortable
and much more beautiful way
of life."
The dream of furniture mak
ers, he said, is to achieve a de
gree of automation comparable
to that enjoyed by appliance
manufacturers whose machines
virtually gobble up steel ingots
and disgorge finished refrigera
tors, washers and ranges.
But to enjoy the benefits of
cheaper, faster-made furniture
the homemaker must be willing
to take into her home products
.which are more standardized
than at present or which are
made up of standard units into
various pieces, Hill said.
It will be up to the advertis
ers, promotion men and mer
chandisers to convince Mrs.
America that she can have a
prettier and more comfortable
home by using the new ma
terials.. Meanwhile, research work
ers are constantly studying new
methods of manufacture.
Plastic materials made of

FRUIT CUP
New York (U.R) Fresh fruits
now coming to most' markets
provide variety in spring menus.
For instance, fresh pineapple
and cantaloupe may : be com
bined in fruit cup, either for an
opening course or dessert. Cut
the pineapple in wedges and the
cantaloupe into balls with a
melon-ball cutter. Mix with
sugar and fresh lime juice, using
half as much lime juice as sugar.
Chill before serving and garnish
with mint.

By ELIZABETH HURIOCK. PH.D.
think about what is in store for
them when the big day finally
comes and goes. Then they real
ize that their old lives are over
and new ones are ready to begin.
Those who go on with their
education, in college or in some
special training school, may feel
that there will be no real ad
justment for them to make, that
they are merely going on from
where they left off. This, how
ever, is not the case. Each step
higher in the educational ladder
means new adjustments and new
attitudes toward the work
ahead.
For those whose education is
coming to an end, the adjust
ments necessary will be even
greater. Everything they do will
be new and the whole atmos
phere of the place in which
they find themselves will be dif
ferent. Even those who remain
at home will find that adjust
ments must be made, that they
are no longer "school boys" or
"schoolgirls."
Suggestions for Adjutiments
Several suggestions may help
make these adjustments easier:
1. Accept the fact that you
are not the important person
that you have been during the
past year in your role as "sen
ior." You are now the most in
experienced person in your new
world and you must start to
build up from the bottom of the
ladder.
2. Recognize that the path
ahead is going to be hard and
that you cannot expect people to
help you as you did when you
were a child. You will have to
solve your problems alone and
learn to take the blame when
you deserve it.
3. Recognize the fact that you
are now expected to dress and
behave like an older person. If
you want to succeed in whatever
lies ahead of you, your chances
will be greatly improved if you
grow up and act your age instead
of clinging to the patterns you
have used in the past.
LETTERS FROM READERS
Summer Let-Down: "My "chil
dren have all had a hard winter
of illnesses and hard work at
school. Now that the summer
vacation is coming, I am afraid
they will have a terrific let
down as we are not going le be
able io go away as we usually
do. Any suggestions?"
(A) No matter where you are,
there will be plenty to keep
your children occupied if. you
plan things ahead. However, be
careful not to plan so much that
they will feel as rushed as they
do doing the school year. Sum
mer is a good time to learn new
skills, such as sports, cooking,
sewing, and typing. It offers
time to see people and to do
things that one rarely can
squeeze in during the winter.
Most important of all, it offers
an opportunity to read the
books and magazines one never
gets around to reading during
the busy winter.
Helping Bride: "My daughter
is to be married this month.
When the returns from her
wedding trip, should I offer to
help her get her new apartment
in order?"
(A). If your .home responsibili
ties make it possible, I am sure
she will , welcome your help.
Volunteer to help her during the
day (when she will be alone. In
the evenings and over the week
ends, when her husband is at
home, it would be better to
leave the young people alone to
work out their plans for their
new home.
Exercise for Elderly: "My fa
ther is in his 60s and likes to
play golf. Is this wise at his
age?"
(A) Your father's doctor can
tell him if it is wise or unwise.
If he is in good physical condi
tion, the exercise should be
helpful, provided he doesn't
overdo it or exercise too much
in the heat of the day. It cer
tainly would be better for his
morale to get out and exercise
than to be forced to sit around
and feel sorry for .himself.

SALAD THE EASY WAY
New York (U.R) Next time
you plan a family cook-out,
serve a salad which can be eaten
"hand style," like chicken. It
saves cleaning up later. This
"bunny salad" recipe comes
from the Camp Fire girls of San
Diego. "Just combine pineapple
bits with cottage cheese. Wash
and separate - romaine leaves.
Spoon a little of the mixture in
to individual leaves, roll, and
eat by hand.
