Nursing Sisters Aided Contemporary Comment By Bridge Party By RUTH G. DAVIS Society Editor "Standing Room Only" was literally true at the annual Fall bridge of the Auxiliary of the Nursing Sisters of the Sick Poor held last week on the roof of the Hotel St. George.

If one could have found an extra chair any place, one would have had to be a magician. It was a colossal success. Of course, the N. S. S.

P. parties always are benefits that are well supported but this time the committee really outdid itself. The proceeds will go to the sisters who devote their lives nursing those who cannot afford a nurse, regardiess of race, creed or color. Mrs. John Martin, president of the auxiliary, who was attractively dressed in a navy blue taffeta frock with a navy blue velour chapeau and a corsage of orchids, was in a hit of a dither, because of the crowds as was the general chairman, Miss Catherine McTernan.

But we are sure all the guests would forgive being crowded because the benefit was for such a very good cause. Miss McTernan was attired in an attractive iris blue tissue taffeta trimmed with blue iridescent beading and matchinig hat, and a corsage or orchids. Miss McTernan's co-chairmen were Mrs. John Mortimer, who wore a black taffeta frock and a fireman's red chapeau, and Mrs. Tullio Romano, who was unable to be present, being out of town.

The committee heads and their co-chairmen all worked so hard. Mrs. William V.

10-The vital trade links between the was one of the subjects discussed here at the Drake Hotel. Much of this information is too detailed to give in a brief report such as this, and will have to wait for a later date. but since the meat supply and its cost are one of the main concerns of the food shoppers these days, we know that you will be interested in the fact that the for better supplies Swift prediction, Company breakfast yesterday confirms that made at the American Meat Institute meeting on Monday. Usually increased supplies mean lower prices unless demand is heavy, but many other factors enter into prices the consumer must pay for meat at the retail store. The fact that meat is a highly perishable product and requires quick handling; that it is in great demand, and that under price controls, price changes cannot he made fast enough to reflect the normal law of supply and demand, all influence retail price.

Should Be Divided Production prospects indicate that there will be a billion pounds more meat, making the supply for 1952 one of the larg. est in history. To get the most benefit the meat you buy, nutrition experts have found through various studies, dividing the day's meat requirements to cover the three meals of the day, rather than giving one large serving once a day, is the best plan. Protein in the form of meat or eggs, is recommended for breakfast, and this importance of coffee in maintaining United States and Latin America, at the meeting of food editors theme "meat for breakfast" greater variety as well, in addition to greater satisfaction in starting the day. Why not plan tomorrow's breakfast around a serving of waffles with sausages and apple sauce? Coffee exceeded in value that of any other single commodity in trade between the United States and the 12 Latin American countries.

Even this may be thinned with a very little turpentine make it more transparent. Next to damar, any of the very pale copal varnishes made for interior surfaces could be used, if well thinned.

William Tuffy, a "basket of cheer." DEAR MARY HAWORTH -After a wind courtship I married a man of little education.

I was very busy the first year of marriage making an attractive home. Then our first child was born, slightly crippled, and a series of corrective operations were necessary. Meantime my second son was born, and after that was on the verge of a nervous breakdown. When the doctors found nothing organically wrong, Ned lost all sympathy with me; but I was so tired all the time I didn't care if I lived or died. Somehow, I managed to drag myself through 10 years of torture, not daring to show weak- Mary Haworth ness to my husband, lest it Mary Haworth bring a storm of sarcasm on my head.

Now everything seems to have brightened up. Last year I began to take interest in my surroundings. I joined our church group, became active in social work, have my own car, domestic help, and two healthy boys. am invited to luncheons and teas during the day. but when Ned goes with me to an evening party, we are never asked again.

He cannot enter any discussion; reads only the headlines and sports section; gets bored and sleepy if we attend any kind of lecture. The only thing that keeps him awake is "wild west" movies on television. No Divorce We have nothing in common. I can't talk to him about my state of mind, for he hasn't the faintest idea of what I am getting at. don't even quarrel with him: just keep things bottled up until I think I'll scream.

For the children's sake I shall carry on. as I have no grounds for divorce and wouldn't consider one, no matter how rough the going. I see other husbands and wives talking a common language and I feel so envious. E. B.

Her Loneliness DEAR E. is something of a miracle that you've emerged on your own power from an emotional depression lasting nearly 10 years. This achievement indicates that you are endowed with a good constitution and a strong predisposition toward mental health. As to why you married an unsuitable spouse, it seems probable that you were a refugee from a loveless family situation when you encountered Ned. Thus I surmize that you responded to Ned's whirlwind courtship primarily 1 because he intensely wanted you; and this feeling of being SO greatly needed by another human being was solace to your lonely heart then.

Circumstances denied you the luxury of leisurely choice. I daresay that your breakdown, so-called, had reference to unconscious emotional conflict and panic, occasioned by the feeling, or realization that you were "trapped" in a relationship that wasn't ideal; and in which burdens and responsibilities were multiplying after the first year. With your spirit caught in the middle of this turmoil, small wonder that you were sick with exhaustion. New Attitude Now you are coming out of the woods. The boys are thriving, your husband is prospering, and your own spirits are reviving as your domestic tasks and concerns are lightened, and as you enrich your days with the stimulation of pleasant outside affiliations.

He cannot share your life as you would wish, which of course poses a special trial as long as the marriage lasts. In my opinion you've taken a great stride toward maturity in simply acknowledging this to yourself, without re. solving to do something drastic about it. This is the essence of "learning to accept" a situation. For the rest, don't try to span your whole future imaginatively, every day.

Confine your adjustment to the here and now. M. H. Mary Haworth counsels through her col. umn, not by mail or personal interview.
