Chicago.-A plea of guilty" was
made in court Monday, July 81, by
Clarence S. barrow. chief counsel for
the two young men accused of the
Franks boy murder. and affirmed by
them after they had been duly warned
by the court of the consequences Of
this plea
The court ruled that the state should
be permitted, regardless of the plea
of guilty by the defense, to present
evidence. designed to prove the mental
responsibility of the W. youths, and
hearing on this point was started
Wednesday, the 23rd.
Nathan Leopold, Jr., and Richard
Loeb, confessed slayers of 1~4-year-old
Robert Franks. are both minors, sons
of m~illionaires of standing, and gradu-
ate students distinguished by their at
tainments. At the time of the Staying
Leopold was 90 and Loeb 10.
The grandfathers of both Nathan
and Richard were among those who,
like Carl Schurz, came to this country
from Germany because of the failure
of the revolution in 184S. The Leo
pold family has been in Chicago since
1867. Albert Loeb, father of Richard,
was born in Chicago in 1868. Nathan
Leopold, ST., whose fortune grew as
the city grew, was formerly engaged
in lax transportation and Is now a
paper manufacturer. Albert Loeb, son
Of a small shoe merchant, taught even

ally became vice president of the

1916 until 1919. His wife, Richards
mother, who was Anna Bohne, has
been active In welfare work.
Both families worship at Sinai tenn
pie of which the late Rabbi Emil G.
Hirsch was pastor. Like them, the
family of the boys victim, Robert
Franks. is of Hebrew descent, although
not holding the Jewish faith.
Robert failed to reach home after

and messages by telephone called upon
his father Jacob Franks, president of
the Rockford Watch company, a neigh
Dor of Loeb and Leopold. for 10000
ransom. The messages stated that the
boy had been kidnapped but was safe.
The father virtually decided to comply
with instructions, but permitted his
lawyer and relative to go to the
morgue to see the body OF a dead boy
that had been found In a culvert. The
boy was identified as Robert. An
autopsy showed that he had been slain

Roll of Grocer's Paper
Very Useful in kitchen

The cook needs piece Of paper on
which to drain the dried croquettes,
the fritter or the doughnut, and she
reaches out for the brown paper that
came around the meat. She turns to
the same source when she wishes pa
per for lining a cake pan. A little
reflection, the Department of Agricul-
ture suggests, will show how far from
clearly is this practice. In every
kitchen a roll Of grocer's paper on
its frame will prove useful. You are
then sure Of having paper that has not
been handled since it was rolled up
by machinery in the factory. Paraffin
paper should be on hand for covering
food, for wrapping up sandwiches for
school lunches, and for similar pur-
poses.
Newspapers cut into pieces of con-
yenient size or old catalogues, If
used to place under kettles or pans,
will save gaueh scrubbing of the sink

New Shawl Is Shown
in Delicate Shades

Something superlatively beautiful
was required to dim the gorgeousness
of the Spanish shawl which has had
such a conspicuous vogue for two sea-
sons and more Among the spring
STYLES in novelties is a shawl of fine
cashmere with a printed border in
floral design. It's origin is not GER
tainly known, but it comes with the
authority of Paris, and is most fem
mime and lovely thing.
The new shawl is square with a
short fringe of the cashmere itself,
and is shown in several delicate
shades of yellow, blue, beige and
green, though the most attractive is
that with an ivory white field and a
border of garden fowers in natural
colors.
One in which are little roses, pam
sizes. orget-me-nots and touches of
green and black is quantity charming.
Another shawl of corn yellow has pop
MES and corn flowers in the border
nattern. and on still another are jon
nuils and small lilies around field
of pale green.
These shawls have made an imme-
date success and are in great de-
mand among women who will use
them over their light gowns They
will surely be equally popular for
summer country wear.

Oriental Influence
in New Paris Novelty

One Of the latest novelties from
Paris owes it's existence to the Orien-
tai influence, and is SO designed as to
give the impression that the wearer
is standing behind transparent
three-panel Chinese screen.
The robe itself is of gold lace, Of
the sheath type, falling unbroken
from the straight neckline to the
ankles. The center panel of the
screen which hangs before this is Of
semi transparent lacquer chiffon, en-
broidered in dragon and pagoda de-
signs in gold. 1t Is attached to the
dress at either shoulder. The two
other panels, similarly embroidered,
are attached at either shoulder and
wrist Heavy tassels at the bottom
keep these three panels straight, and
when the arms are raised to the level
Of the shoulders a perfect representa-
ton Of three-leaf screen is pre-
scented.

Straight Line to

Outgrowth of Simple MILDLY
Blouse Is Scheduled to
Hold Popularity.

A new and charming fashion has
grown out of the two-piece idea in
women's dress. 1t is a straight-line
version of the simple MILDLY blouse,
according to a fashion writer. Pari-
sian dressmakers made this popular
thing late last summer. 1t has been
shown at the most exclusive shops IN
various attractive guises and will,
without doubt, be one of the most
worn of the new fashions throughout
the spring and summer of 1924
These frocks are simplicity itself,
yet lend themselves readily to the
knowing and distinctive little touches
which make for style.
The frocks may be bought at any
shop of the better type and, of course,
they can be copied by clever
seamstress for much less.
Another flannel frock with plated
skirt has simple bodice and the regu-
lation MILDLY neckline. The little
monogrammed tab is the very newest
version of the craze for motifs and is
attached at the top only. This is al
ways embroidered in contrasting color,
usually in black or white
A winsome model would be most at
tractive of black satin with pipings of
white satin. 1t has a simple wrap
around skirt and small, well-placed
pockets, and is finished with a bias

BEANS WITH
VARIOUS FLAVORS
Recipe Furnished by Depart
n1ent of Agriculture.

prepared by the United States Department
of Agriculture)
Baked beans may be cooked In many
ways. Here Is a recipe furnished by
the United States Department of Ag-
riculture.
Cook the dried beans gently until
the skins begin to break, then drain
off the water. Put a layer of beans
in a bean pot or deep earthen dish,
and on this layer, in the center Of the
dish, place piece Of salt pork ("streak
of fat and streak Of lean'), having
the rind side up, using 1 quart of
beans, half pound Of pork. The rind
should be scored. Fill up the dish
with the beans, add seasonings and
water to cover the beans.
The simplest seasoning for beans is
/ tablespoonful of salt and half tea
spoonful of pepper to quart of beans.
Mix the salt and pepper with the wa
ter. If liked, a tablespoonful of mus
tard may be added, as well as an
onion and a tablespoonful or more of
molasses. Instead of the pork piece

employed In this case there should
be from ia to 2 pounds Of the meat
to a quart of beans. If fresh meat
be used, add more salt to the beans.
If salt meat is used, probably one tea
spoonful of salt will be enough. When
mutton is employed, trim off every
particle of the skin.
Bake the beans in a very moderate
oven for or 10 hours. Add a little
boiling water from time to time, but
never enough to bring the water be-
yond the of the beans. Any kind
of bean may be baked in this manner.
However, the small pea bean Is the
best for Boston baked BEANS" The
lima and large white beans are best
for the deep earthen dish Do not
cover the beans while baking.
Other f1avors liked with baked beans
are those supplied by tomato sauce,
tomato catsup, brown gravy and mush-
room sauce.

larity of colors whose vogue is ex-

AS was to be expected, much atten-

and in these there was noticeable
tendency to choose hairline striped
materials and covert mixtures.

A coat of three-quarter length was
worn over a skirt of the sarne mate

The vogue of brown extends to milf
