Definition Of
Good Sport
—
By VIRGINIA Lit
What & the definition oi a good
sport?" We usually think of him
or her as one who does not ait down
and weep and wail when adversity
hits them, don’t we. but who “can
take it.” and instead cl wasting time
feeling sorry for themselves, put
their aits to work frndrng a way
out.
Some people call a person a good
sport who joins In all the activities
of the group, including those that
may net be so desirable, and they
are “flat tires" if they do not lol
iow the mob.
Then some folk call us “Rood
sports' tf we do what they want us
to. and we re not if we don't
And there are times when we re
not at all sure we like being go d
sports. It seems sometimes that
while we are willing to assume our
obligations all the burdens are shov
ed on our shoulders, while people
who refuse to take any responsibility,
are carried along on others’ should-:
ers and life is made easy for them
My Idea of a Rood sport in a hus
band is one who treats his wife as
he would his male pals, but better.1
Who goes 50-50 with her in money
matters, fun and responsibilties. but
realizes that m some ways she isn't
as strong as he is. and needs a little
consideration.
And a good sporting wife is one
who can see her husband's side of
any question as well as her own. Who
does her own job well—taking care
cl the house and children, as long as
she is able—without burdening him
more than can be helped realizing
that his Job takes his strength and
ability and home should. In the main,
be a place of relaxation and inspira
tion.
This wife knows that her husband
should have a little time to go out
with the fellows, and doesn't get
fretful about it. when he occasionally
so goes out.
i
Worried at 15: I think the boy
has given you very definite proof
that he isn't in the least interested
in you and your invitations, so ig
nore him.

LEARNING HEBREW
Due to the Zionist movement
which is building Palestine as the
home of the Jews, the revival of
Hebrew as a spoken language has
been encouraged. Many women are
studying the tongue, many of them
past middle-age, according to Mrs.
Moses P. Epstein, national vice pres
ident of Hadassah, women’s Zionist
organization of America.
SERVE ON TOAST
Choose a medium squab, not too
small. Do not split it. Leave whole,
tying legs close to body. Cover with
dripping from chicken. Salt and
pepper and put in a roasting pan in
a quick oven for about 10 minutes,
then leave for about one hour in a
slow oven. Put a teaspoon of good
brown gravy over the breast and
sene on hot buttered toast.
CRISP CABBAGE FOR SLAW
Cabbage for cole slaw should be
crisped in ice-cold water and kept
:n the ice box In a tightly covered
dish for several hours before using.
For dressing, whip cream, add a
little vinegar, sugar, salt and pep
per and just a suspicion of may
onnaise. then mix with the cab
bage. cut fine.

“We spent our money on swings

“Going to play golf this after

and sorry — glad for him to have
fun — sorry because you know from
now on until fall dinner will have to
be at all kinds of odd hours

Method Preserve* Flavor
Certain vegetables may be cooked
In various ways without danger of
losing their flavor on long stand
ing. Por instance, delicately flavor
ed vegetables are good baked
Casserole combinations are best
baked In a slow oven and then kept
hot In a pan of hot water. This
presenes all the moisture and heat
without over-cooking and drying.
Part of the dish may be sened when
ever wanted and the remainder re
turned to the hot water bath with

Quickly cooked meats, such as
broiled steaks and chops may be
used when there is time to do them
after the tardy ones arrive. But

be used as soon as cooked because
they are ruined by standing.

Speaking of delayed meals the

is roasting, place cubes of bread and
cubes of salt pork on alternate bones
and cover the center of the crown
