Some babies skins are drier than

these babies the use Of oil around

hars Of more general benefit than
the use of powder. We all feel that

A SUGGESTION

IL you would like to be able to spend the entire summer
season out of town but don't feel that you are able to afford
there is a suggestion for you. Think it over before you
make next seasons vacation.
Would you be willing to work a few hours each day if by
doing that you could make enough to at least practically pay
the expenses Of your su inner vacation? My suggestion is not
hard work and it is something that all the time you are doing
yeu can till be deriving the benefit Of the fresh air of the
seashore or mountains whichever place you select.
AT summer resorts there are always a great many mothers
with small children. The care of these children naturally
keeps the mothers tied down. How they would enjoy a long
tramp in the woods or a carefree afternoon on the beach, but
the constant care of the Riddles makes such freedom and re-
taxation impossible. How many mothers would be glad to pay
some reliable person for caring for their children say a couple
of hours each morning or afternoon. They can't afford, per-
haps, the expense of taking a real nursemaid away with them,
but for a few hours each day or even every other day they
would be only too glad to hire some trustworthy person to
oversee their children.
One could watch over at least four to six children in an
afternoon. In that way one could make a neat little sum each
week. It wouldn't be hard work to watch over the Riddles
while they played on the beach on the sand, or amused them
selves in the country. What do you think of the suggestlonY

Fiction and stage wives have a
pretty hard way of making a ly-

Consider what they are called up

the lord of your castle came home
in the early morning hours with his
o~vercoat redolent of any-dowers'
perfume, a pearl necklace in his
pocket and a glib tale about being
called out of town on business.
Suppose that, in the meantime,
you had been called up by three CT

absence. You would make an i'm
mediate dash for home and mother,
wouldn't you?
But not with the trustful wives
who fit through the pages of fiction.
or who wait in front of the magenta
fireplace on the stage for the beloved
footstep.
They are trustful soults who dis
pense charity for all and malice

Greens Aid In
Nutrition Work

Reports from communities which
have taken the Nutrition work with
Miss Whitcomb, the home demons
stration agent, have given very def
mite proof of the value of green's.
The results have been obtained In
correcting underweight, Overweight
and constipation. In nearly every
case it has been due TO the increased
use of vegetables, especially green
ones. One woman reported. This is
the first winter I have passed with
out having a cold or grippe and II
lay it all to my greater use OF green
vegetables and proper diet-p An-'
other oma reported, 'sThe chil-
dren who were underweight are both
W to normal now" Still another
report reads as follows: NO more
colds, reducing for overweight and
general improvement in health"
Below are some suggestions for
the use of green's. There is q lot in
cooking them in the right way.
For that tired feeling" try green's
plenty of them-spinach, dande-
lion, lettuce, kale-whatever is avail
able. Try having some kind OF ieafv
vegetable once each day. Your body
will appreciate the increased supply
of minerals, especially iron and lime
and of vitamine.
Use them raw with any dressing
which you particularly like. Or il
you cook them, be sure that you get
the full nutritive value.
The following method is recorn<
mended by the home economics de-
partment of the New Jersey Agrt-
cultural Experim ent Station:
Remove the rootS-6nr W.T.
leaves. Wash in a large amount
water several times to remove SAT-
and dirt. A sufficient amount

that none need be added for cooking
if the pot is tightly covered. Soda
should not be added as il DESTROYS

removed from the pot a few minutes
before the leaves are done, they will
retain their light green color.

that, because that's just what l did
last year, and in the end / didn't get
much of the cleaning lone. But be-
ing in greater need of money, now
that / am so much older, / closed the
deal for regular work at regular
wages.
My last years khaki camping out
fit is the costume. It's too small for
another camping season, anyway. A
bandanna tied tight around my hair
and an old pair of cotton gloves
complete my attire.
I've lone the mattress and the
springs on my bed, and beaten the
rug out on the back lawn, and 1 am
still working on the windows and the
woodwork. It takes me a lot of
time because | do it all after school,
but 1 have money coming to me,
hooray!
Tomorrow I wash up the floor,
and I've thought out a stunning os-
tune for that. I shall wear my old
bathing suit, bathing shoes included,
and a pair of rubber gloves. A couple
of knee pads wouldn't be such a bad
idea, would they?
Well, this isn't such a very ex-
citing letter, is it? Although It is
probably much more exciting to me
than it is to the rest of you.
Cleaning the spots off my winter
| clothes and brushing them and then
doing them up in' moth balls to be
put away for the summer is the
deadliest thing I've had to do. but
mother says it's a great relief to her,
and besides, If l stick right at it,
it does get done, and besides It's
money in the pocket for me. When
you're hard up, you can do almost
anything for the sake of the money
that's coming in.

who read the Fiye-Fifteen have been
housekeeping too, I'd like to hear
their experiences if they have.

Good for you, Patty c., and 1
hope you get rich from your strenu-
Gus labors. Funny, isn't it, that
cleaning a rug is about as much
work as playing a basket ball game,
and not any hotter or dirtier. The
refreshment sof a bath and fresh
clothes a~fterward, added to the toy
of having accomplished a real job,
WITH PAY, is eminently satisfying.
