THE SUPREME COURT

The President and his aides main
tanned silence On their attitude to-
ward the Supreme Court. There are
before the Court several New Deal
measures which may be decided
upon before Congress begins its
consideration of new legislation; the
Wagner Labor Disputes Act en-
bodying the National Labor Rela-
lions Board and Securities and Ex-
change Commission, and the Pub
lie Utility Holding Company Act.
Will the Court be an issue? This
was question heard almost on
every hand in Washington. And
the Capital remembered that in the
last session of Congress there was
agitation to increase the member
ship of the Court, allowing for the
appointment of more liberals.
One of the Justices in the Minor
ity Liberal Bloc. Associate Justice
Harlan F. Stone, was kept away
from the bench this week by illness.
If he will not be able to resume
his place on the Bench in the con-
sideration of some New Deal meas
ures in coming weeks, Court at
taches said they believed he would
be able to participate in the decis-
ions, digesting the briefs in his sick
bed
Another of the Minority, Associate
Justice Louis d. Brandeis, was 80
years old this week, observing his
birthday listening to arguments.

The Administration kept a close
watch on the rising prices on the

(By Beatrice Hall,

One of the most serious handi- caps that man:' teachers find among their school children is that of hunger during the n. .rning hours, There are surprisingly large num- Der of children sent of to school each day with little or no breakfast
 The old idea that 1t is hard to work on an empty stomach certainly ap- plies to hungry school children. A lack of interest is a direct result of an unsatisfactory morning meal. An under nourished child is apt to be nervous and cannot be expected to give full attention to school work, r : to be active when at play.
 Even though nervousness and in- attention seen serious enough, the results of malnutrition are far more reaching in their efforts. A grow ir- body demands certain nutrients if 1t is to be healthy and equipped to face life. No matter how satis- factory the other two meals of the day are, it is very difhcult for them to supply the necessary nutrients for the day. Investigations show that poor nutrition is reason for fre- quent abse.--- cs and minor illnesses.
 Many times mothers complain that children will not get up in the morning in time to eat a satisfac- tory meal. They say that they pre- pare plenty of food but that the child runs of after nasty bite. In

this case it is not the food that is to blame but another health habit. If the child is not having enough sleep at night naturally he will stay in bed just s. long as possible. The simple remedy in this case is to send the children to bed earlier than has been the habit. There are very few children who arc lazy. It is lack of sleep, nalnutrition or some defect that is apt to make a child 1istleSs and lack the usual vim and pep for the day. Such child should have doctors care.
 Perhaps you are wondering just what constitutes a nutritious break fast. The type served is apt to dif- fer a bit during the winter and summer mL1tl-s, but the meal pat tern remains t...e same. There is va riation with each family depending on the type of activity and the di- versity of age, need and taste. In general, a wise plan for 8 child'S breakfast, if he is to have 8 good meal at noon is fruit, cereal, bread stuff and a beverage made from milk. When the lunch is carried, or for some reason a less hearty noon meal is planned, it is well to in- clude eggs or bacon in the morning meal. Each food in the breakfast may be varied. It is well tc serve fresh fruit several times week and the kind may vary each time. The other days dried fruits are satisfac- tory and here, too, there are several to choose. The cereal served de- bends on the season. Cooked cereal is most satisfactory during the win ter months. Although a little more expensive, some people prefer the prepared cereals during warm wea- ther. Whichever is used the dark, grains should be given preference as they contain nutrients rot found in refined foods. The bread stuff commonly used is toast. Muffins are nice for variation, but take time to prepare. Both should be served with plenty of butter and here again the dark breads and Hours are more nutritious. The bev- craze may be just a glass of milk but in cold weather, hot cocoa or postum made with milk arc more warming.
 Try following these meal plans and begin the day early enough to prevent hastily eaten breakfast. By adhering to such a schedule you are doing your part in giving the children a truly good start for the day.

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS - Desserts That Will Give Your Menus The Required Balance
RY MILDRED BENNETT

I done to swerve their allegiance; nor should we try to, since desserts have their proper place in daily menus. Mrs. K may well meet her situation with good natured tolerance reServing the right, however, to make desserts wholesome, inexpen- sive, and in good balance with their respective menus.
 Just now, when late melons and early grapes are so delicious, l should not neglect fruits, but would try to keep them from be- coming monotonous by alternating cooked dessert recipes.
 If the family likes custards, there is an almost intending variety of good things that can be made ecoiiomically and with little labor. This would bring to meals in an attractive way a generous portion of the milk which should always be present, especially where there are small children.
 Tapioca custards make excellent foods for children. Tapioca is in- correctly chased as 8 cereal; it is obtained from the roots of tropical plants, yet in 8 way it partakes of the quality of cereals. Tapioca has very small starch granules and is therefore among the most easily digeSted starch foods. This is SO highly appreciated in dietetic cir cles that tapioca is often used in infant feeding formulae and for thickening broths for patients who have delicate digeStionS.
 Since we have been able to buy quick cooking tapioca, it is widely used for desserts which vary from simple tapioca buildings sweet ened and served with milk or cream for children's menus, to tapioca rec ipes cooked either with or without eggs, or combined with fresh fruits, preserves or nuts.
 A particularly fine dessert is made by cooking one-half cup of quick-cooking tapioca in four cups of sweetened raspberry juice. Chill in sherbet glasses and serve with whipped crea. Canned juice can be used for this and similar rec ipes.
 Figs, apricots, fresh red plums, peaches, bananas, pineapple, can- ned or fresh cherries all these fruits blend delciously with tapio- ca in pudding recipes. Then come 1 the milk combinations which use such f1avorings as butter-scotch, cocoanut, vanilla, chocolate or cocoa. Good recipes for these can be found in any cook book.
 As a first step away from the constant fruit desserts which the children have tired of for the mo- ment, Mrs. K. will find the fore- going suggestions, alternated with other simple sweets, will give her variety enough for many days to come.

Pleasing The Man
By CHLOE JAMESON


 Your own pride and joy is the service of a dainty dinner wherein each item keeps its own place on the plate. The chop lies here: potatoes there; beans, peas, grilled tomato or broccoli range themselves for mally on one side so that each food seems totally unrelated to the others, because each has been cooked sep arately.
 That is all as it should be. But now and then most men like 8 hodge -podge of meat and vegetables cooked together, en casserole or in the pot, and served in one tempt ing mass in which all are mysteri- ously blended. Chefs are past mas ters at combining dishes of this sort so that when they come to the table they do not resemble the homely akin to each other, because they've stew or pot-pie, but seem like 8 splendid group of foods that are all all been cooked in the same pan.
 Here is one recipe of this type which will make an excellent fall dinner for the man who likes 8 combination meal:
 Praised Beef with Vegetables Select fine piece of trump and early in the morning put 1t into 8 pickle of wea kcider or wine yine- gar seasoned with onion, bayleaf, spices, salt, pepper and . little su- gar; let stand for four hours.

Your Table
 Manners?
EATING FRUIT

When you are invited to make a selection from 8 lovely bowl of fresh fruit containing oranges, peaches, pears, plums and as- sorted grapes, invariably you select grapes or pears because you feel they're easier to handle.
 Even so the pear - if it's a fine juicy one - has is difficult mo- ments, unless your hostess has been thoughtful enough to provide both fruit knife and fork.
 Peaches, plums, pears, apples and all similar fruits can be handled quite nicely by holding them in position on the fruit plate, using the fork in the left hand, and draw ing down the skin or peeling from the top downward toward the plate. Then cut the fruit in half, remove pits or cores, cut convenient pieces

Husbands go simply wild about this marvellous apple piel Wives are proud to serve 1t! Whats more, it's easy as can be to make.
 If you want your family to swear you're the worlds best cook, set this Spicy Apple Pie on the dniner table. Juicy amber apples with wonderful spicy tang. And golden crust that's so tender and flaky it fairly melts in your mouth.
 Good cooks are amazed how much fiakier and lighter their pastry is, made with this simple receipe. So delicious, in fact, that they use it for all their piecs. And don't worry if the family takes second helpings, for this flaky crust is easy to digest.

Thicken the liquid for gravy and serve sep arately. Or you may slice the meat in the kitchen, if preferred, and arrange in the center of each plate, with vegetables surrounding.

Question: I am hunting for some inexpensive new dessert rec ipes as my family is extremely fond of desserts. There are two children, ages four and seven, and it seems I just can't satisfy them unless I have dessert of some kind. I use fruit a good deal as I know that it is healthy for them, but they are getting tired of that now. If you will please give me some ideas for desserts that are easy to work out and also not costly, I shall be obliged.
