My dear Annie Laurte-I am
fifteen years old and am not al
lowed to go out anywhere at
night. Besides. my parents do
not think 1t nice for a girl to go
to matinees or with young men.
They never allow me to go to
moving pictures or to my friends
houses. My parents are going to
take me out Of high school this
fall.

that a girl should not be allowed to
go out or to enjoy herself Until
she is eighteen or older. People are
generally 30 lax with their chill

makes 1t all the harder for you to
bear.
What cannot understand Is that
your parents should refuse to allow
you to go to your girl friends
houses, even though they object to
your going out in the evening with
boys. I do think you are rather
young to do this. ! am wondering

If you left your home to go to

1t be possible for you to stay with
relatives? Otherwise, I think that
you are too young to be thrown

Dear Annie Laurie: About
year ago I became acquainted
with a girl at school We grew
to good friends. but at length we
had a Misunderstanding. Four
weeks later I received a note
from her asking II I wanted to be

swered. telling her that l had al
ways been her friend and wished
TO continue SO. About a week
ago she stopped speaking. and
asked me to return a little pin
that she had let me wear. l had
lost 1t. and now she seems very
angry. Would 1t be right for me
to offer to pay for It? l have
liked her better than anyone
else. as she is very nice and
rather quiet. ! am going away
this summer and won't be back
for a number OF years. Can you
help me? S. o. z.

How to Select
Vegetables

June brides who plan to do their
own housekeeping are often puz-
zled when faced with the market
ing problem. 1T is particularly
hard to select choice vegetables.
Here Is a handy reference list that
may he helpful.
Head vegetables. like cabbage
and lettuce. should be solid with
few waste leaves outside.
Root vegetables. like potatoes
and onions, should be sound and
similar in size.
Hard rind vegetables and fruits,
like grapefruit canteloupe and
lemons should be sound and frm.
Caulifower should be firm and
white, and not have any marks OF
insects or blight.
Celery should be Arm and white,
and without marks or blemishes.
String beans should be crisp and
Corn should be even and white,
with nrm, regular kernels.
Medium sized yellow squash are
best. as the proportion OF seeds Is
smallest.

40 MUCH has been written about
saving time and steps for the
Tired Housewife. that it might be
pertinent to consider II there Is
no other server of the households COM
fort whose time and steps are also worth
being saved.
The housewife makes a great moan
because she has so many Interruptions
from tradesmen, SO many calls from
delivery boys, and that her day is one
long reception line to the grocer. the
iceman, the butcher. the baker, and the
vegetable boy. But viewing this recep-
tion line from the other end Of the glass

housewife wastes for each of these who
bring her supplies2 Is the delivery
boys time not worth something? Does

match. Another variation that will
lend individuality to a garment
may be supplied by embroidery in
color. which will also match the
ribbons. Cross stitch designs may
be worked in several colors, but
the larger stitches should be con-
fined to one color only. and that
one very light.
The same ideas in embroidery
may be used as a motif for a COM
plete set of lingerie. including
three or four pieces. This would
be an ideal bridal gift.
Still another variation of the
usual trimmings may be given by
the combination of light colored
materials with white. A night
dress may be made more attractive
by the use of bands of blue or pink
at the neck and sleeves, Joined
with feather or cross stitching

Votes for Better Babies.

While wise mothers visit the Baby
Saving Show in the City Hall Pa
viiion: while thinking men shudder at
Philadelphia's infant death rate; and
while the campaign for a child hygiene
division goes slowly forward, let the
men and women alike of Pennsylvania
read and reflect upon these words Of
Beatrice Forbes Robertson Hale:
Wherever women are represented,
those things that women need the most
are best cared for. The most vital
thing to women are children. The in
FAINT mortality is lowest in the world
In three countries where women vote
New Zealand, Norway. and Australia
where they lose 56, 81, and 6S babies out
of every 1000 respectively. In the Ger
man empire, where woman's place has
been defined very strictly as with the
church, kitchen, and children, they lose
1S2 babies out of every 1000. "-Phlladel-

One of Nine Men Saved From

POTTSVILLE. Pa, Oct. 4. 49, The nine
men rescued yesterday afternoon from
the Foster tunnel of the Lehlgh Coal and
Navigation Company are doing we'll under
the treatment they are receiving at the
Coaldale State Hospital. They are guarded
against being interviewed, for the sur
geons require that they be kept perfectly
quiet. 1t is believed that all the men will
recover.
Elmer Harron, one of the men, gave out
o statement at the hospital telling how
the air, becoming compressed by the
stream of water, knocked them down and
rendered them senseless for several sec
onds. Reviving, he and his companions
went TO the gangway below to ascertain
the cause and they climbed along the
air pipe to the chute where the rush of
water came. They climbed through four
chuteG and they discovered that they
were imprisoned and that their way Of
escape had been cut off by vast barrier
OF coal and rock.
They crawled to Chute "a. Lahonick

BERRY SUPERSEDED
AS QUARTERBACK
PENIS Star Athlete Did Not
Live Up to Form Saturday
and Grant Replaces Him

Pennsylvania's football coaches this
afternoon superseded Howard Berry at
quarterback on the varsity eleven by elc-
waiting Roy Grant to this post and using
Berry on the second team. They explain
ed that they did this because Berry did
not come up to expectations in Satur-
days game against Franklin and Mar

first team in charge of Bert Bell. but Bell
Saturdays game that they merely gave
him a little preliminary exercise.
It is not the intention of the coaches to
permonently displace Berry unless Bell 5r
Grant should show something sensational
They want Berry to learn how to tackle
and interfere. When he does these things
well, they think he will be absolutely sure
Of his post.
Most of the men came out OF the Frank
lin and Marshall game without scratch.
Williams and Quigley, both of whom had
to leave the game at different times on
account of injuries. are not seriously hurt
and will be ready for duty against State
on Saturday. Quigley had to have several
stitches taken in his scalp. Williams was
accidentally kicked on the head but rs
fully recovered now.
The coaches spent more OF the aftet-
noon in pointing out the mistakes the
men made on Saturday They en-
phasized in particular the necessity of
better tackling and better interference
for the backs.
Foster Sanford, the coach of the
Rutgers team, was a visitor to Franklin
Field today. in quest of a game with the
Quakers. His request that the Red and
Blue play his team on November or IL
astounded the Pennsylvania authorities
because their schedule is absolutely
filled. Dartmouth is played on November
6, in Boston, and Michigan on November
10, on Franklin Field. Then Sanford
