TABLE--
 Food Suggestions
By Mrs. Mary E. Dague

Nothing could be better than asparagus with butter but If you have only a little asparagus, and a mob to serve, try cream soup and open a can of tomatoes, say, for the extra vegetable. Serve croutons or Melba toast with the soup.

When tips are tender, drail. and add the water to the other asparague. Keep tips hot while rubbing the stalks through a coarse sieve. All slice of onion and cook milk. Melt butter and stir in flour. Cook and stir until bubbling and slowly add asparagus puree, stirring constantly.

 Your Children
By Olive Roberts Barton

"You must wake and call me early,
 Call me early, mother dear; TomorrowT be the happiest time
 Of all the glad New Year: Of all the glad New Year, Mother,
 The maddest, merriest day, For I'm to be Queen of the May.
 Mother,
 I'm to be Queen of the May"
 But the little girl in "The May Queen" died. How we used to cry over her.
 Today the child is Queen of the May, or King of the May, in a far different sense. Sense, it happens, is the word. Sense instead of sen- timent.
 In all the thousands of years of so-called civilization 1t is incredible that until the last fifty years the child was considered the least of mans responsibilities, and that only in the past twenty-five years have the hunaanities touched the under privileged one. It has been only Q dozen years, roundly speaking, since national consciousness has awak- ened to duty" toward the child.
 The King and Queen of the May have travelled far to their crown ing.
 However, like all royalty, these children must live in homes. And although the May Pole is all very well, it lasts but a day. After all, it is but rally and 8 reminder. The idea is to give impetus to gen. eral welfare both outside and in- side the home. This year the Chil- dren's Bureau, now sponsoring the movement begun by the American Child Health Association, has chos- en as its slogan Health and Secur- ity for Every Child"
 MOST IMPORTANT FACTORS IN WELFARE OF CHILDREN Naturally the parents part conA cerns chiefly the health of the child. Security, too, of course, but mainly in a social sense. Econo- mically the parent does the best he | can.
 In their order I give the things I consider necessary to the. imme- diate welfare of the young child. Decent housing and sanitation. Appropriate food for his age. Cleanliness of person and sur- roundings. Sleep.
 Regular elimination.
 Fresh air, sunshine, and room to play outdoors (corollary of Number One).
 Contentment and happiness in home life.
 Necessary medical advice and treatment.
 This last had thought of putt ting first. Indeed, all of the above should be first, because they arc so correlated and necessary to we'll being it is difficult to rate them as to value.
 And here, may I be permitted to add 8 thought? I suggest that on some not too-far-away May Day, funds may be found to put into the hands of every mother in America, an authoritative booklet instructing her in essentials of child health: that all objections to such a pro- cedure may be removed and that at last we may call ourselves really civilized.

Household Hints
.UEAUxX GIOriting
 Yourself
By Alicia Hart

If your small daughter is taught the elements of beauty now, she will acquire basic training invalu- able later. This does not mean that on her fifth birthday she should be presented with a dressing table overfiowing with sophisticated cos~ metics. But she can learn, just as casually as she learns to wash her face, not only fundamental routines, but many of the beauty precautions that prevent blemishes from appear ing.
 A thorough brushing of the hair each day is simple, yet the most im- portant method of maintaining the natural glossiness and vigorous re- siliency of the hair. There is really no good reason why Little Darling should not brush her own hair, in- stead of having mother do 1t.
 Mother will have to guard against excessive sunburn at the beach. Young, tender skins are very sus- ceptible to the dangerous actinic rays that harden the skin and pfo- duce blemishes.
 Nail-biting is a juvenile evil that a mother should suppress. It makes the cuticle tough and hard, spells the shape of the fingers, and besides is an unlovely habit. Occasional manicures will develop daughters pride in the appearance of her hands. While on the subject of nails, a thought should be given to toe nails-careful trimming avoids pain full ingrowing.
 Little girls are made of sugar and spice and everything nice, but if they stuff themselves with these pleasant ingredients too much they will grow sideways faster than they grow up. The wise parent watches her daughters weight. If the diet is carefully checked and an abnor- nal overweight condition still per- sists without apparent cause, a physician should be consulted.
 Pouting should be firmly squelched. Not only will 1t spoil 8 potential Cupid's bow mouth, but it is an expression of sullenness, no mood for a child supposed to be gaining a background of beauty.

 Hygeia, the Health Magazine
 Some changes which take place in the body of the prospective mother may cause her concern far beyond their actual importance. Of course, the growth or the child causes changes in the mothers body.
 Frequently, after the first few months, the breasts may secrete a thin milk known as colostrum. This continues until the time when milk itself appears. Its appearance need not occasion alarm.
 During the first few months the skin changes little. LatIr 1t becomes thinner, and slightly bluish-pink streaks may appear. After the child is born, these streaks become small er and light in color. They are caused merely by overstretching of the skin.
 Many preparations are sold, which are supposed to be rubbed into the skin to prevent appearance of these scars. They are of no value.
 Sometimes small colored spots will appear on the body, including even the face or neck. These are termed "liver spots" They repre- sent deposits of pigment. They have no special significance and usuaully disappear later.
 Occasionally the fingers jingle and sometimes they swell during the day. Real swelling of the legs or of the hands may be significant and certainly should be called to the at tention of the doctor. Slight swell 1ngfi, however, is merely sign of change in the circulation and need not produce alarm. Deposit of fluid in legs, face, and hands is associated frequently with inability of the kid neys to eliminate fluid satisfac- torily.
 Sometimes, during child bearing, there may be destruction to the re- turn flow of the blood from legs to heart. This blocking of the veins will result in swelling of the legs.
 To prevent swelling resulting merely from mechanical causes, raising of the legs from time to Mime is helpful, and 1t may be use Hul to sleep with the legs slightly elevated. Use of elastic stockings or supports fairly high up also will be helpful in easing pressure on the veins.
 Sometimes swelling of the limbs will occur in hot weather and be ab- sent in cold weather. Severe rub ping or massage is not advisable and should never be used without Ehe doctors instructions.
 The usual length of time for child birth is 27O to 280 days. Occasion ally the period is somewhat longer. Sometimes children are born before the seventh month. The causes of such variation will be discussed in later articles.
 Bear in mind that the right time Co consult the doctor is, first, im- nediately after marriage, to know whether everything IS satisfactory Cor childbirth: second, just as soon As the mother suspects she is going 10 have a child; and thereafter at kaGlllaI intervals of at least three

Paris Styles By MARY FENTRESS

Paris (UP)-Calou, one of Paris most prominent hairdressers, says that 8 coiffure, above everything else, must fit in with the demands of modern life. For sports, there fore, hair styles must remain simple and classic with the hair worn rather flatly against the head. For evening. curls' should be worn in a graceful line coming from above the ears to the nape of the neck. Calou predicts the return of the twist" with the hair swept across the back of the head, where clus- ter of curls will be held in place by a tortoise shell comb. He considers the comb indispensable to the we'll groomed head, particularly in sum- mer when many women go hatless ] as it keeps the hair in place with out destroying the line of the coif- fure.
 Calou is noted particularly for his ability to achieve a coiffure slit ed to the individual as he considers the size and contour of the face as well as the personality. He says that brunettes look best with their hair pulled back from the face, while blondes are more likely to need 8 soft frame of hair for the face.
 As for hair tints, Calou says that the blonde has come back into her own again-not the platinum tint but more natural blonde shade. By means of various rinses (not dyes) he is able to give life and tone to drab blonde hair. For example, with certain blondes he finds that a pinkish rinse gives exceptional luster and tone to the hair. He becomes more exotic in the case of women with white hair, for he likes to tint the hair at the temples in pastel shades.
