YOUR BABY AND MINE
Prenatal Care
By MYRTLE MEYER ELDRED

Prenatal Care
Mrs. c. II. NJ. writes:
Please do not think this is a
foolish letter but my mother is
dead and / have no one else to ask.
/ have only been married a Few
months and am to have a baby
sometime in January, and / do not
know very much about 1t. l don't
know any doctors here, but is it
necessary so long as 1 feel SO Well?
1 do not see how 1 can ever go to
a doctor, as my face burns every
time l think of going, or what viii
happen in the end.
l can sew and 1 have a good
idea of what to make for the
baby yet / need someone's advice.
[ am going to one of the hospitals
n take twilight sleep. Can you
give me any idea of what the
hospital bill will be- Have vol any
book you can tell me of that l
can buy which will help?
Answer
I do not think your letter fool
ish and | am glad you wrote me
so that I can put you right on
some things. There Is something
very very wrong in h way you
have been reared when you blush
and burn with shame at the
thought of going to a physician
about your condition. This is false
modesty and no one resents such
an attitude on the part of the
mother more than the doctor. You
are an entirely impersonal thing
to him, merely a case which ne
wants to help and you should have
no hesitancy in going TO him m
mediately and putting your case
in his hands. He has a right TO
know the way things 60 from the
very beginning and he should
advise you n look out Tor you
during the whole period. In TINS
wav only can he safeguard your
health and that the coming
baby's.

-Four Tasty Ways
IoPrepareS Squash
by Sister Mary

In choosing a squash one runs
about the same risk as in choosing
a melon, for there is no accurate
way of determining whether the
squash be dry and mealy or watery
and stringy.
However, it's a safer bet" If the
shell of the squash be very hard ano
the vegetable heavy in proportion to
its size. A winter squash often has
such a hard shell that it takes the
Ratchet to break it.
The yellow summer squash or
vegetable marrows as they are called
in England are delicious cut in slices
and fried like croquettes, then
sprinkled with grated cheese and
Drowned quickly in the oven. But
the summer squash will not keep
as the winter squash will. Winter
squash a be kept in a perfectly
dry cool place for several weeks.
Squash is usually better baked
than boiled. Ii there is any reason
to believe it is watery try baking it.
No extra water is added to increase
the natural amount and the squash
will bake quite as tender as it will
boil tender.
If pumpkins are scarce try a
squash pie. Squash custards are a
delightful change and squash Gro
quotes or scalloped squash make a
delicious entree.
