 Beans and peas are big news now. The snap bean crop is estimated at 67 per cent greater than last years and the June pea crop is rated at Il per cent higher.
 To that good news add this little fact-these vegetables are among the good vitamin and mineral group. Snap beans are rich in calcium and vitamin A, good source of iron, phosphorus and vitamin c, and 8 fair source of vitamin B. Peas are a rich source for pellagara-prevent- ing factors.
 If you don't fully realize how im- portant these seemingly dull facts are, look at children who do not get the necessary elements in their diet Human misery is more than dram atic-it is tragic. Watch your vita mins and minerals if you must feed children along the way to sturdy and happy man and womanhood.
 Select only snap beans with pods of uniform size. They will cook evenly. Get pods that are fresh. bright green, clean and free from blights. Avoid dull, wilted looking beans. If the pods snap easily, they are good buys. Avoid the crooked ones and those too sharply pointed
 Peas should have bright green pods, be velvety and fresh looking. Flat, dark green pods mean old ones. Yellow is the color of age in pea, too. Peas, remember, deter iorate faster than snap beans be- cause of their sugar content. The sugar changes rapidly in to starch and the delicate pea flavor is then lost. So if the peas must be kept sometime before cooking, keep them in a cool place, so as to slow down this sugar change as much as pos- sible.
 Follow these four rules for cook ing both beans and peas if you want to get all their flavor and value. First, cook in a minimum of water Second, cook in an uncovered pan so as to keep them green. Third, have the water slightly salted, boil ing boisterously, when you put veg etables in, so as to cut down cook ing time. Fourth, consider the vege- table cooked when there is still some body flrmness to 1t. The aver age cook overcookS both peas and beans. Remember this-after going

Your Children
By OLIVE ROBERTS BARTON

Are you depending upor books that you won't let her read, to draw the big picture, or the whis- pers of her friends to open her eyes to what it's all about?
 Anne's Age Isn't All
 Now Anne or Ruth or Sylvia is yours, and you know more about her than anyone else in the world knows. At IS she may be as sure and level-headed as many a girl several years older. Or, on the contrary, she may be immature and too impressionable, too trustful at others, an entirely gullibIe, sweet child who must be guarded.
 Age counted by strokes makes less difference than we think. And character more. O the other hand, 1t is true that the middle adole scent needs protection in all cases.
 Now, more questions. Do you know Tom or Bill? Have you grown up on your street, and are they entirely trustworthy? If 90 a little spin won't hurt, but as for dropping in to strange refresh ment halls for a turn and a pos sible drink, this is to be banned definitely, no matter whom your daughter is with.
 Don't trust to experience to open her eyes to the truth. Either tell her all there is, or put some good books into her hands. Her armor must be supplied by you her mother. Trust her, but don't risk her. What will she know Of men, and the preying passions cf the interruptions, unless she IS enlightened?
 Frankness Pays
 I don't like suspicion. There are too many splendid boys to unfairly class them with the birds of prey. But it is their misfor- tune to have to come under the doubt, if they are entirely strange to you, and their regulations url- known.
 We're raising our girls. or try ing to, with the old conventions of the hoop-skirt and embroidery needle. It's all out. and the girls know 1t. So we must back our rigid rule with reason today. It is a frank age, and frankness is the only way. If we expect youth to be honest and above board. we must be honest too.
 Sixteen, seventeen, eighteen year-old girls must be given their facts, their values, and an in- grained pride that amounts to strict inhibition within them- selves. Without it they are al- most defenseless. Chaperons, after all, are only policemen, and as such almost useless.
 Let Anne go out on little ride with Chuck or Jim or Bill, if she is level-heAded, and knows her business. and if you know her swain and like him. She should be home early. Her destination should be known to you.
 The minute you suspect that she is in doubtful company. it is best to clamp down on permis- sions. She won't like 1t, but will thank you for it some day. The best date for Anne at fifteen is a walk to the drug store for a soda, after . movie, maybe. Then home. Home is the place for any girl of fifteen after 0:30 at night. Copyright, 1sS7. NEA Service.

PARENTS

Are you having daughter trou- ble? By this mean, is fifteen year old Anne insisting on being grown up, going out driving with Tom or Bill, and stopping at road houses to dance?
 And, if so, what are you doing about it? Telling her that she doesn't know life and she must stay at home and be a good little girl until the magic hour of six teen, when you'll see about 1t?
 Also-what do you intend to do in the great year, to bring about her enlightment to the life" you refer to? Is she going to be a different person entirely? Or even at seventeen or eighteen?

a member of the Junior League and Cosmopolitan Club.
 Known to Traffic Cops
 Abby Rockefeller's marriage to a young attorney, David M. Milton, neighbor boy with whom she had grown up, occurred on May IA, 1925. Following in the newspicture morgues are pictures of Miss Rockefeller, smiling demurely, taken 10 and 12 years ago when she drove her automobile so swiftly that traffic officers had a habit of handing her tickets. Twice David Milton appeared in her behalf.
 Abby Rockefeller Milton, who was born in 1903, attended Chapin and Briarly schools, and made her debut at musical in 1922. After her marriage she lived in a modest apartment where she was said to do part of her house. work. She has one daughter, Abby, who is about nine years old.
 Mrs. John D., Jr., Art Lover
 Even more distinguished than any of her daughters-in-laW is Mrs. John D. Rockefeller, Jr. who has stepped away from the limelight these many years for the sake of the men of the fam lily. She is one of the foremost collectors of modern American

Bellies of Yesterday
 It is the reason, too, that no- body knows that Mrs. John D. Rockefeller, Jr., was a belle in her day, with so many suitors she grew a little weary, and that Abby Rockefeller Milton, the only daughter of the John D. Rocke- fellers, Jr, had a habit of being arrested for speeding about 10 or l2 years ago.
 And did you know that Mrs. John D. Rockefeller III had cour- age enough to register as Social ist, at the voting booth, in 1884? The officials will show you her husbands entry, marked for the Republican Party, with her name, credited to the Socialist regime, right under it.
 Or did you know that Mrs. John D. Rockefeller, Jr., called down the reproaches of the Nazi party on her sleekly coiffured, but in- different, head, in 1895, when she donated a painting called "A Ger man Family" to the Museum of Modern Art?
 The Rockefeller women-beau- tiful, talented, socially prominent in their own right, all of them - consist of Mrs. John D. Rockefel- Ter, Jr., her daughter, Abby Rock efeller Milton, and the wives of her three sons, John D. III, Laur- ance Spelman and Nelson.
 Philadelphia's Contribution
 Mary Clark, a pretty Philadel- phia debutante, was the first girl to marry a grandson of the late oil king. Her marriage to Nelson Rock efeller took place in 1930. Miss Clark, as the daughter of MT. and Mrs. Percy Hamilton Clark and the granddaughter of George B. Rob- erts, president of the Pennsylvania Railroad, was in line to marry into reigning family. Therefore, no one was much surprised when she and young Rockefeller fell in love and won their families con- sent to their marriage.
 | AloO SldA AIOW ANSAoSAA Rockefeller, is a graduate of Fox croft school and studio at the Sorbonne in Paris. Before her marriage she was exceedingly &C., tive in the Philadelphia Junior League. She is an enthusiast in out-o door sports and excels in riding and tennis. She is inter- ested, too, in art.
 Common Interest Social Work
 The next debutante to marry into the third generation of Rockefeller men was Blanchette Hooker, daughter of MT. and Mrs. Elton Huntington Hooker of New York and Greenwich, who mar ried John D. III. She has found herself in the limelight consid- erably more than her sister-in- law. Held it, too. For instance, there was that opening event when she and her husband re- turned from their honeymoon. The cameramen wanted to snap the bridal couple. John D. III, with Rockefellerian instinct, sug- gested that he pose alone. The cameramen didn't like the idea. It apparently didn' please the

ment.
 The fair does not take place until 1889. Now, two years in advance plans are under way to provide com- fortable living conditions abundant protection, to the women and girls who will be engaged in the activities of the transient city.
 Hitherto as the fairs have unroed their pag eantry, arrangement has been made for returning the people from foreign lands to their native shores or giving them enough money for food and transpor- tation in the ventures in which they worked were not successful There is the famous instance in wel-known fair, of 400 girls from continental coun try, who were thrown the streets penniless speak ing no word of English when the exhibit in which they were working failed.
 That will not happen again. Every employer must be so bonded and insured that he assumes definite responsibility for those he employs Capable women will oversee the programs of the girls and women.

THE MAIN STUDIO AT ODD
 HOUSE

AAS 4sAAAAAN " SA~AO e~~ HOUSE
 In earlier talks 1t was intimated that odd House will have no dining room but instead the space old fashioned folk gave to the dining room will be used for 8 library. For ordinary breakfast, lunches, snacks or square meals 8 pleasant section | in one end of the kitchen, with an outlook on garden, patio. lawn or trees will be used, and for more for mai dinner parties the library will be ideal.
 odd House is to have two studios. The main studio will be devoted ex- clusively to culinary art and art criticism and appreciation. It will have large windows extending to the height of the ceiling, on one or if possible on two sides. These windows will all open fully and be fitted with screens that open by rolling up like ordinary window shades on rollers. And the artificial lighting of the culinary studio will be as carefully planned as that of any other room in the house.
 The ceiling and upper half of the walls will be finished in white, cream, ivory or light yellow, wash able. Indirect lighting will be used throut odd House, save places where concentration of light intensity is desired. The glare of visible lights in any room is repellent, whether we realize 1t or not. On the other hand, the soft, natural radiance of the room illuminated from invisible source is always pleasing and attrac- tive. am reminded of this by the show window of one merchant on a street ablaze with flashing electric and neon signs. This window liter ally stops the passing crowd-not a light visible, the display indirectly illuminated is indeed soothing to tired eyes.
 Attention will be given to the in- flow of fresh air through screened duct from outside to a grating un- der or back of the cooking range, ] the inlet being larger in diameter than the outlet vent.
 Only sufficient room for the ar- tist to work with convenience will be planned in the culinary studio. The less space without cramping the better.
 Culinary implements and ware will be copper. iron, aluminium, wood, enamel, stainless steel, tin, china, glazed earthen ware, and some white metal fitments. At Odd House we do not take seriously the fears some gullible customers have about the use of certain of these kithcen wares.

QUESTIONS and ANSWERS SOundness of SIeep

When is sleep the soundest or best? I mean, is there any basis for the common idea of beauty sleep" before midnight? (S. L.)
 Answer-The deepest sleep occurs about an hour after one goes to sleep. Sleep is more shallow from the second to the third hour. From the fourth to the fifth hour 1t is still more shallow. Then follows another period of deeper sleep = at about the 9th to 7th hour in adults, the 9th to 10th hour in children. It makes no difference whether the sleep is before or after midnight, daytime or nighttime rest, other things being equal.
