ABOUT FRESH FISH
 IN YOUR DIET
N0urishes Without Adding Fat According to
 Statistics
(BY REBECCA GEORGEs)

The fact that fresh fish nourishes without adding fat has resulted in increased eating of fresh sea food by women according to various health authorities.
 The widespread habit of under eating which once prevailed. with dire results in many cases, has been replaced by balanced dieting which keeps down weight without lessening vitality.
 Haddock is one of the best known of the white-meated, fish. It has an average content of about 325 calories and is extremely deli- cate and tender when fresh.
 Dwellers in Kitchenette apart- ments, as well as suburban and rural householders, have found haddock fi1lets economical and easily cooked. Absence of bones and waste matter cuts to a notice- able extent the work of preparing the meal. The wrapping of parch- ment paper holds the moisture within the fresh tissues of the fish and prevents the possibility of con- tamination with objectionable odors in refrigerators.
 Here is a way to pan-brotl had dock fillets, the use of very little fat distinguishing this method from frying:
 Cut fish into portions for serving. Roll in bread or cracker crumbs and place in frying pan with small amount of fat. When cooked and nicely Drowned on both sides, serve hot.

According to tradition, husbands are supposed to object the moment it is discovered that to-night's meat dish is yesterdays leftover in disguise. Nevertheless, most men thoroughly enjoy such dishes if they are ingenuously and skill fully prepared and seasoned.

Did I tell you the questions Grandmother asked me about my face powder yesterday?" asked Sally. "She sat by my dressing ta- ble and just peppered me with questions. Not that she objected at all-for she isn't narrow mind ed-but she just wanted to know. She particularly wanted to know why I had four different boxes of face powder, for in her day, no girl ever had but one and that was always white. And she was sur prised that even among the four, I still had no white powder"
 "Very few women, to-day, use white powder, Sally" I said. 'The dead white skin that can use it is rare, indeed"
 "Well, surely had time keep ing up with grandmother's ques- tions, and I side stepped some of them until I could get the answer from you. She wanted to know, for instance, if woman's age shouldn't be considered in choosing her powder and the way she wears it.''
 "I would say that your grand mother showed a great deal of judgment" said, flor a woman's age should certainly be considered. Young people, for example, who have sufficient natural glow to their skins, can use cream pow ders. But when age begins to take away some of that glow, a creamy pink shade should help to put it back"
 "Then grandmother was asking what we used to call intelligent questions in school, wasn't she?" said Sally. "But what about put

YOUR CHILDREN
By Olive Roberts Barton 6i555 eY NEA SERVICE INC.

If we parents expect our chil- dren to grow up without bad habits, think we shall have to look nearer home and expunge some of our own failings. A father who rants and roars if
 his son swears, and is given to blistering profanity himself may just as well give up; or the parents who drink and then raise the roof if they catch any of the youngsters imbibing will have to correct that breath first, am afraid. But younger children pick up things too. It isn't altogether the power of suggestion, either; for If parent fibs and child bs. after, him, it is more of letting down of standard than of mere copying.
 If a mother and father have a high standard of living. thinking and acting, children will be im- pelled to have it too. Of course, where there are little children, imitation is largely re- sponsible for habit, Small gestures are quickly picked up and occa- sionally develop into fixtures in the child.
 I knew a father who had a way of jerking his head and shoulder to one side. His small son picked up that identical gesture with such precision that it became a parody. The son is grown now. He jerks his head and should more than ever, while his father ceased it long ago.
 If father kicks at a chair in- variab1y before he sits down, the children will be unusual if one of them doesn't start the same trick.
 But after all these are extrane- ous things, and not vital. Talking spitefully about other people soon gets to be family habit, or ridi- culing or criticizing anything that does not coincide with ones own ideas.
 Intolerance in parents begets in- tolerance in children.
 Parents set the pattern not only in behavior but in thought and feeling. All parents are on a stage and the children are the audience.

The Charming Thing About Dresses Is Their Fantasy Jean Tells Why Some Frocks Have Tt" While Others

 Written for the Democrat and
 NEA Service.
 Paris.-A gown can be conceived on totally new idea, be perfectly constructed and we'll made-and yet lack charm. To the princi- pal qualities. therefore. you must necessarily add another, which is fantasy. It may not be of vital importance in the actual makeup of the dress, but it certainly is a quality which you can never over- look if you wish to avoid banality.
 Restraint is Essential
 If I have always insisted so strongly on the necessity of mod erating this very fantasy, it is be- cause I have always feared that if too great an importance were given to it, the inevitable result would have been that some of the essen- tia1 factors would be overlooked. or even overshadowed. Excessive fantasy can exist only in a dress devoid of the three ruling prin- ciples--novelty, cut and execution which then means that it Is bad ly constructed.
 Asymetrica1 trimmings come first among the various means at the disposal of the creator to sup ply touch of fantasy to a model. Often used in a very simple form, this is the surest means, never theless of avoiding anything com monp1ace.
 pressions in the use of asymetry as trimming that. in spite of it's constant utilization in the mode, : it enables a creator to use it every season under a slightly different aspect. The degree of novelty in these various expressions is, of course, purely relative.
 Neckline lis Important.
 The most usual way of placing asymetry at the service of fantasy is certainly that which uses this means of stress a decollete. This particularly applies to evening styles, although the present varia- tions' on the afternon style can often call on asymctry to outline neckline.
 When asymetry resides solely in the design of tucks or stitching, the effect is much less obvious, but it contributes its quota to the fam tasy of the model and enhances its charm.
 Outside of this use of asymetri- cal effects, almost negligible to any but the experienced eye, there is also that of irregularly distrib- uted volumes, as found in the ad- junction of more or less important bows, or in the disposal of fitness.

ting powder on? Does age make difference there?"
 Indeed it does," I said. For a. heavy coat of powder is very aging. It not only fails to hide lines, but it actually shows them up. There are many women who don't seem to realize that. You know, I'm interested in these ques- tions. Are there any more?"
 "Yes. Grandmother wanted to know if something couldn't be done about the way women powder their noses, particularly in pub- lic.'
 "Well, I certainly agree with your grandmother about the bad taste of putting on cosmetics in public" said. "Of course, if ones makeup is done properly at home, and if good foundation cream insures the powder staying in place, then making up in public isn't necessary. One should take a generous supply of powder on the puff and press it firmly on the neck, cheeks, nose. and forehead. Put the powder on rather thickly. covering all the exposed part of your neck, the back, up under your ears, your throat, then tone it down as much as your good taste tells you, smoothing with your finger tips. And don't for get to clear your eyebrows and lashes of every bit!"

Health or He Mother
 Essential To Child Life
Difficult to Secure Best Type of Child Care Without Proper
 Kind of Mother, Says Dr. Fred Lyman Adair

"One of the most essential things for the proper carrying out of pro- grams to improve child life is the safeguarding of the lives and health of mothers. Without the proper kind of mother who re- mains in good health it is difficult to secure the best type of. care for children" says Dr Fred Lyman Adair of the University of Chi cago, chairman of the White House conference committee on Prenatal and maternal care, in commenting on May Day, national child health day.
 His committee reported that, with regard to saving the lives of mothers, the United States lags be- hind many of the leading nations of the world. Efforts to improve the situation should begin at the marriage license bureau with in- structiens emphasizing the need of adequate prenatal care, for, ac- cording to Dr Adair, Three fourths of the maternal deaths are due to controllable causes"
 The importance of adequate pre- IldtdI CdIc HI ICQuS1H6 tAS huAhUCA of maternal deaths from all causes and especially the second greatest cause, kidney complications, is emphasized also in the study of mortality conducted by the United States children's bu- reau. With the cooperation of state health departments, medical societies, and attending physicians and midwives, the bureau studied every maternal death in fifteen states: Alabama, Nebraska. New Hampshire, North Dakota, Oklaho- ma, Oregon, Rhode Island, Vir- ginia, Washington and Wisconsin. ''It is evident" Dr Frances c.

 YOURSELF
LIPsTICK LORE.
By Alicia Hart
@I05z eY NEA sERXlcE !M

There is an entirely new way of putting on your lipstick this spring.
 Don't just do your lips. Begin on the inside, not the out. Rouge your gums. too, if they look anaemic. Not too much. They mustn't look bloody. But having the inside and the outside of your mouth match give you a vital, vivid look of youth.
 If your lips aren't a Cupid's bow don't weep about it. Most of all don't try to make them one. Emphasize the upper lip. Some women even go so far as to use two shades of lipstick, the upper heav- fer. They must be the same kind of red, however.
 If your mouth Is wide, stop lip sticking just before you get to the end. If your mouth droops as if you were too sad for words, red den the upper lip almost to the end, shaping it upwards with a little flip at the end-not flip you can see too easily. Rouge the lower lip only seven-eighth of the way across. This, you will find, changes the shape of your mouth substantially. If your upper lip is too heavy, be sure you work well within the defined edge. Keep the lipstick shallower than your lip. That helps, too.
 T There are several new Hpsticks on the market. There is an auto- matic, one, in any of the new shades, that is handy, to say the least. There is a new compact that has lipstick and loose powder "a neat contrivance. There are new evening sets in pastel colors that include an off-white set of compact and lipstick that Is stun ming. And, last but not least. there is new line out that has a sleek, modernistic black container for it's lipstick-as for all it's pro- ducts-that you can have mono grammed or initialed. A nice little vanity that most women will ap- preciate.

Sue was ready to leave when Ruth arrived. Sarah was with her.
 Nobody else is at home," she explained. "My family have gone out to dinner and Ted has a meet ing. Sarah is going to drive us home."
 There was something about Sues and Sarah's friendship that was understanding and comfort able, Ruth reflected. They had known each other for long time, suffered the same sort of things. roomed together They didn't have to masquerade or pretend with each other. Now that her shining castle wasn't standing on quite such steady legs she wanted to confide in someone.
 Yet -. Joe couldn't have done that just as an opportunity for giving her the money! That would be mean and low and terrible! She would hate him for it forever. But he didn't do that. The memory of his lips and arms was still too close for her to believe.
 Sarah and Sue chatted of light, inconsequential things all the way home. Ruth listened. Now and then she spoke a word or two. Just monosyllables. Not until Sarah had started back to town. and the red tail light of the car was a vanishing speck in the dis tance, did she mention the hand writing.
