toes, incidentally, are among the
few vegetables which a be safe
ly canned without use of a pres
sure cooker.
Next come carrots, cooked or
uncooked. They are high in food
value and important because their
delicious flavor stimulates the ap-
petite. Leaf lettuce requires much
less work than head lettuce and
has more food value. The dark
green leaves are high in iron con-
tent and Vitamin A.
Parsley is another important
vegetable. Save a few inches for
a parsley bed in the garden. Pars-
ley, however, should be eaten, not
merely used S a garnish for some
other food, often less important.
Parsley is high in vitamin A and c
and minerals. especially iron.
If there is sufficient space for
corn in your garden chose a yell
low variety since the yellow corn
contains vitamin A.
Beets r worthy any space you
can give them. They should be
planted fairly thick and then thin
ned. The younger tops will provide
a choice vegetable, a fine SUBJ
stitute for those who do not like
spinach. In fact, all the green,
leafy vegetables r good.
Feas and beans likewise are ex-
cellent. If your family happens to
like white turnips be sure you
serve the turnip tops as a vege-
table. You'll overlook good food if
you don't.
Potatoes are important, if you
have the space. They are not only
good energy-producing food but
potatoes are high in mineral con-
tent and contain an appreciate
amount of vitamin C.
Finally, there's the dandelion.
whole lots are filled with them at
this time of the year. They are
delicious cooked or served as a
salad or in a salad bowl with other
greens and a dash of French
dressing.

people with an eye on the financial
consideration.
Greatest Tenor
John Mccormack, in his estima-
ton, has never been excelled as a
concert artist. There has been no
artist that has ever equaled him In
artistry, and his English was the
best. Also the greatest box office
receipts ever taken in resulted from
McCoramck concert, and the
greatest net proceeds for season.
Mr.. Wagner thinks that the artist
who nearest approaches Mccormack
in singing good English, in fault
less diction, is the rising star, Alan
Jones. He also rates Jeanette Nc
Donald a beautiful concert artist,
possessing clear, high voice, charm
ing personality, and looks. She is
twice as attractive, he says, on the
concert stage as she is on the screen,
also her voice more beautiful. In
operate tenors he is betting on
Bjoerling, who, he says brought
down the Met recently when he hit
high D, doing just one whole tone
better than the usual operate tenor
After finishing his talk Mr.. Wag-
ner answered questions, and very
entertaining period of general dis
cussion followed between Mr.. Wag-
ner and those present. He considers
Marian Anderson a great musician
beautiful singer Of lieder, but he
thinks that Dorothy Maynor, has
the more beautiful organ.

suited in a vote by the police board
yesterday to have Supt. William J..
Roach report on the number Of

Motion for the report was made

provisions now exist to take care
Of the sick problem.
Four Days q Month
Supt. Roach replied that under
the present system policemen get
four days of a month, but every
policeman contributes one Of the
days to the "sick fund.-" an agree
ment which actually gives each man
three days Off q month.
The men call this system putting

This arrangement normally al

the policemen have to give up more
than one Of their days-off in order
that the beats may be fully covered.
