And the wreckage they can cause in a case of soft drinks is unbelievable. * " i" By KATHLEEN NORRIS \ THE Whites live in Philadelphia and they"have a daughter, Jean, 17, and a " son, Robert, two years younger. Their lives have run along a familiar groove until now; they have lived exactly as have mililions of American families, own- , ing their home and their car, having part-time help, going •way for two weeks of summer vacatidn, putting Jean and Rob through public school with plenty of luxury on the side. Now the Whites have come ton* . difficult crossroads, and they can't agree. Father White is a man of Strong will, and he needs it at this ; moment, for Mother, Jean and Rob i junior are leagued against him. i Father, flatly and simply wants to go on as they are. That is his (entire platform. Jean and Mother, somewhat indifferently abetted by Bob, want to rent the house, move ife> a smart apartment, go in mod- !«tly for entertaining, and give Jean l^the chance her friends will have of meeting the right people and going the right places. •!•'• Doesn't Like Their Home. " ! Robert White's income is $4,000 a year. Olive, his wife, began a , budget when it was little more than V half that, and they bought the house pine years ago. It is a square house 'With trees and a front garden, a double garage, four bedrooms and two baths, living-room, study, dining- room, kitchen, two fireplaces and a small, sunny dining-ingle off , the kitchen. ~ To ninety-nine women out of ev- •ry hundred it would represent luxury. But to Jean White it is just perfectly horrible and commonplace and she wishes it would burn down. The Whites pay $62.50 a month for : intercut on a $5,000 mortgage, home . iosurancc and amortization. Rob- •rt White pays $40 a month for life insurance. The table costs an even hundred a month, and the four-day- ..#-week services of Amanda Johnaon, about $35 more. Young Rob comes home ravenous • .•very day, and makes incredible inioads on bread, jam and butter, 4rinking exactly a quart of choco- 'Jfete milk as he does so. Jean brings Bice hoarse boys to dinner, and they •ever refuse a second cut of beef " m pie. The wreckage these young persons-ea» cause in a case of soft feottled drinks is unbelievable; Jean calls upstairs, "Mother, may we , «pen this cai^' of ham and have these eggs?" And what can Olive • "t'lijaD back but "Of course, dafling, What else are they there for?" \ Costly Incidentals. Home, food and insurance and service therefore consume half the Income. Above and beyond these are the incidentals that all budget keepers abhor because they sound so insignificantly small and add up so brutally big. Incidentals mean telephone and long distance calls, tailor, laundry," cleaner, clothes, shoe's, dentist, doctor, church, movies, theater, clubs, newspapers, magazines, gasoline and cleaning of Jpke car, flowers, stamps--no one of them terrifying, but the whole mass Itispeakablv, depressing. ; The Whites owe various small UlIs now, for the first time in their lives; Jean belongs to a ski club, and that costs money, and Rob had to have an emergency apendectomy. These bills fret the man of the house: he end his wife both* thought them "somewhere -around two hun- „ dred" until they added them up the • SPOILED CHILD The spoiled child is a problem, not only to her parents but to herself.

This caused a sort of family panic, in which Jean expressed her ideas. Jean and her mother think the time has come to borrow a good round sum, rent the house, and move to one of the beautiful new apartments just finished in the smartest part of town. The square, a 11-window corner of the big drawing-room in these apartments, its whiter-brick; fireplace and indirect lighting more than reconcile Jean to the fact that she would have to take for her own what was designed for a servant's room, and that none of the White's furniture would be suitable in the place. Only chromium pipe, white leather and crystal furnishings would fit there. The rent is $175 but Jean argues that the old house would rent for a hundred anyway. And she does so want--with tears and smiles and kisses how she wants!--to entertain in the new place, to have that address on her writing paper, to have "fun" with the others of her cabwd UPtil she gets married. Beth Paresis Are Wrong. •Til be darned," writes Rob senior, "if I want to go in for more expense now. I want to stay where we are and see if we can't cut down expenses. Just tips in the new place would stand me in about twenty a month; the whole thing would be done on borrowed money, and I don't like it! Answer us honestly," his letter concludes, "which of us is right?" My opinion. Robert, is that neither side is right. I think you and Olive have been wrong all along, and I think it's your fault that at 17 Jean has such completely false ideas. Years ago you should have been saving a thousand a year out of that handsome salary; years ago Jean should have realized that that last expensive year of private schooling, with its inevitable friendships and comparisons, was not for her. Years ago Olive should have lifted the heaviest of your burden by bringing that admirable budget of hers not just within the narrowest possible margin of income, but far below it. Since you have so spoiled Jean that debt and pretense seem to her the natural steps toward finding her husband and place in life, you may be very sure that when she does step socially above you and her mother, and needs you no longer, i no consideration may be expected j from Jean, should your old age be i dependent and helpless. j Needs to Be Awakened,v ^ So my advice to^you now is to move, indeed, but to some small place whose rent won't be more than $50. Rent your present home indeed, but only to cover overhead expenses there, and to invest the rest. Beside that,fput $100 into governmsnt bonds every moath before you turn one cent over to the family. and junior age will rejoice in the attractive party frocks and date dresses made of velveteen in lush colors. The sensation of the season is the new velveteen skirt girls will wear to take the place of the flowerprint dirndls and full peasant skirt? in gypsy colors. They will be combined with blouses of every description ranging from cowboy flamboy ant prints to the daintiest of sheer lingerie types. It's smart, also, to wear a bright-colored rayon jersey tailored shirt with the velveteen skirt. Wool-like rayon weaves are high on the list when it comes to the perfect material for back-to school wear. Noting a few fall fashion highlights at random, there's the trend to tall steeple-like crowns which is very important. If you feel an urge to change from black to color ask for the slim dress done in gray jersey in the latest draping technique. The newer suit jackets are featuring short hip-lengths. It's smart to wear vividly colorful long gloves with the new black dresses.

Grease and Waterproof Coatings Grease-proof paper containers for holding coffee, spices, crackers, and cookies are made by applying thin coatings of dilute silicate to the paper, using a concentration sufficient to obtain penetration without producing a heavy surface glaze. A thin layer of paraffin can then be applied for water resistance. Silicate coatings are also being used in rendering wooden barrels suitable for holding vegetable oils, turpentine, light mineral oils and similar products. Silica is an important ingredient in the manufacture of the liquid fillers which are used as a first coat in painting many kinda of wood--especially in finishing the woodwork on houses or on the less expensive soft, close-grained woods. * Green Rays at Sunset , of the visual marvels at nature wfjich comparatively few persons have witnessed is the momentary flash of brilliant emerald green in the sky at the end of a sunset. Although the causes of this "green ray" are in dispute, it ia widely believed that the coloration is caused by the bending of the rays of the sun by the atmosphere.
