Thru Women's E q e s EDITED BY JEAN HALLOCK Lines by Hnnry David Thoreau Though all the Fates should prove unkind, Leave not your native land behind. The ship, becalmed, at length stands still; The steed must rest beneath the hill; But swiftly still 9ur fortunes pace To And us out In every place. The ve.ssel, though her masts be firm, Beneath her copper bears a worm; Around the Cape, across the Line, Till fields of Ice her course confine; It matters nof how smooth the breeze, How shallow or how deep the seas Whether she bears Manilla twine. Or In her hold Madiera wine. Or China teas, or Spanish hides, In port or quarantine she rides: Far from New England's blustering shore, New England's worm her bulk shall bore. And sink her in the Indian seas,— Twine, wine, and hides and China teas.' In the moods of Lines, at any rate, Thoreau didn't catch the glamor ot tra- vel and far distant lands For him there was the allure of home and the present day well known things. It Is the plea for nationalism, the plea for home, and country—a plea many of us echo—although today the bright colored posters in travel tour windows, the vi- vid pictures so gallantly displayed, those souvenirs a friend brought home, the lure of seeing someone else ofl, and the movie travelogues make us want to travel more—to return home, at last, but to travel first. We do not feel quite so pessimistic as the poet—for ships do return home, with happy travelers appreciative of their lot—their country, and their home, more so than ever—after a week, a month, or year vacationing or \going round the world.\ Travel Is good for one—it makes the basic truth of Tho- reau's poem more apparent—the while It sends us back for more sightseeing and comparison of those far off hills. Cle»ninr Closets for 1939 Those students i n ' t h e schools who carry on their rings, sweaters, and em- blems of all sorts, the symbol '\39\ have come Into their own, at last. This Is their year—the year looked forward to io eagerly for many past—the year the magic words of a diploma will become theirs—the year they will clean their closets of old dance souvenirs, football schedulesi and text books, of ancient an d disreputable but highly prized clothing, and make room for the equipment of higher education, of first jobs, of all glorious young life and living. This Is the season for cleaning out most anyone's closet—for setting books In neat array on bookcase shelves—for throwing out the unessential useless things, for setting clothes In order— for patching up quarrels, and breaks in friendships, f o r doffing somber thoughts, for mending those things in the back hall closet — the ones you never get quite around to doing—for developing those negatives of Sunny's last birthday party, when she was Just five—for discarding that pile of hoard- ed dresses you know you'll never wear again and giving them to the Salva- tion Army who find even your oldest garment something that can be re- vived for another. Are you cleaning your closets, this 1939? Come, come—you did it just a while ago—and spring cleaning Is Just around the comer? All right, we were Just teasing. Of course, your house Is In order. But there are scattered bits ot things here and there, that need fixing—closets of our mind that heed sweeping of uncharitable thoughts, of grievances,real or Imag- inary—of fancies, fears and supersti- tions that are no real help to you at all—and only clutter up the place, til It's hard to tell what's really worth- whUe, after aU. And don't forget to shake all the cobwebs from your laughter, your light and airy step, your smile, your nod to a passing neighbor, your contributions to the community inteUectual well being whether you're head of the library, clubwoman, or Just an alert listener—your civic pride and contributions to that-oh, there are many things, indeed, that need a bit of dusting. Just around the corners, to be sure—just a tiny bit of polishing —but they mustn't be forgotten! A PROPOS OF RADIO By Jean KilkennjT 1939—The Dawn of a New D a y - centering o u t In t h e rejuvenated swamp lands of Flushing now trans- formed Into a colorful extravaganza of modern architecture—displayed in the shops up and down Fifth Avenue- sticking out on every New York State license plate—saluted by radio weekly until April 23rd. Literal or figurative—this Dawn of a New Day, taken from the theme song of the Fair by the late George Gershwin and formally dedicated as the Fair slogan last Sunday night, should have considerable psychological effect on international turmoil. And radio Is making possible the elaborate program of salutes coming from Euro- pean and even Asiatic capitals. By the miracle of radio, messages of good will, communal interests, reminders that the culture of the world as well as economics must suffer limitations Th e New Y e a r The old year's gone, 'tis by ^^ow but a memory, Few men will loudly cry Its like again to see.

We start with care But careless grow, And fall to share The fruits we grow. Our buried talents lie Unshared, unused. And hidden from the eye Abused, abused. The coming year will be Our test. And coming days will see The best Or worst, as we decide. Not now — But In our every stride The days allow. As we now write the page Of destiny. Some coming race will gage Our history. Then j^lame, or praise Will be Our lot In those new days We ne'er shall see. North Fork Farmer Shopping This is the season of after Christ- mas shopping—of spending the Christ- mas money for gadgets for the house, for gadgets for yourself, for possessions for the new year. Let's reconsider the situation, first. When you do that suggested housecleaning of the closets, note the things that were most unuse- ful in the year gone by—most unnec- cessary—that broke soonest—and search out replacements — of a stronger na- ture—or no replacements at all for the junky things—the things we all suc- comb to, now and then, because they I Around Our House | How Good a Parent Are Yon?

This peanjit butter omelette usually brings lots of praise when It Is served occasionally Instead of meat. Peanut Butter Omelette 5 eggs • 5 tablespoons of milk Vs teaspoon of salt 5 tablespoons of peanut butter 1 tablespoon of butter Separate the egg whites and yolks and beat them in separate bowls. TO the beaten yolks, add the salt, peanut butter and milk, mix them thoroughly and then fold this into the beaten whites. Melt a tablespoon of butter in th^ frying pan, and pour the egg mixture into the pan. Cook the omelette on top of the stove over a low fiame until it puffs and browns slightly on the bottom; then put it In the oven (at about 350 de- grees F.) for about 10 minutes, where the omelette can cook on top and throughout. When cooked, remove from the oven, crease it through the center, fold It over and roll It onto a warm platter. Serve at once. This recipe makes five average-sized servings. For a meatless dinner using this dish, the New York State College of Home Economics suggests the follow- ing menu: peanut butter omelette, baked potatoes, stewed tomatoes and celery, cabbage, celery and green pep- per salad In lime gelatin, whole wheat rolls and butter, chocolate ice box cake, milk for the children, and milk, cot- fee or tea for the grown-ups.
