the equipment, you might plan to
put up a few jars of relish or
canned" beets or beans-or salt
some of the beans away in brine as
cur grandmothers used to do. If you
want any recipes for putting up
beets or beans telephone us at
National 5000 and We'll be delighted
to help you out.
Snap beans are rich in vitamin A,
have some vitamin c and B1 to offer.
They also are good source of valu-
able minerals. Cook them in as
little water as possible, with no soda,
little salt, and serve them at once,
dressed with butter, salt and, per-
haps, a little lemon juice. Snap
beans mixed with shoestring carrots
are just as good as the more familiar
carrots and peas.
Both snap beans and beets are
used to make one of the best-known
epicurean salads. The beans are
cooked until just tender, drained
and placed in neat little bundles,
with cooked beets cut in thin strips,
in bowl lined with lettuce leaves.
All are thoroughly chilled, and
served with a French dressing made
with plenty of tarragon vinegar. a
few chopped herbs and pinch Of
ground mustard.
The beets, Of course, when they
are young and tender, are really two
vegetables in one, for the tops make
a delectable dish of greens. How
ever, too often, when purchased in
the market, the leaves are SO
withered that they cannot be used.
Both tops and roots harbor many
valuable food components, and by
choosing those which look the fresh
est and cleanest when you buy them,
you are assured of obtaining a good
supply of these essential properties.
When you boil beets, leave on the
long taproot and an inch or two of
stem to keep the beets bright red
color by preventing bleeding" Start
them, unpeeled, in boiling salted
water. If the water is hard, which
tends to make the beets fade, you
may add little vinegar to the water
while cooking Young beets should
be cooked in 80 to As minutes, and
are easily peeled by being dipped
into cold water, after the taproot
and stem are cut off. Then skin will
slip off like glove.

boy had been going together a good'
deal. But in this case, not. only is
the other girl only casual friend
of Marguerite's, but also there has
apparently been not the slightest
sign of interest in her on the part
of the boy.
Girls, and particularly young
girls, have a tendency to look over
the boys whom they know, and sort
of stake out mental claims to them.
Babs likes" Billy. and proceeds to
make him the prince OF her day
dreams, which she then shares with
one or two of her girl friends. The
girl friends somehow manage to
build up an idea that henceforth
Billy is Babs' special property, and
that he is surrounded by mo tres
passing" signs.
OF course, Billy is blissfully un-
aware of what is going on. He may
even be unaware of Babs' existence,
and if he is aware of it, 1t may be
a matter of terrific unimportance
to him. He'd never in the world
think of dating Babs, yet Babs' girl
friends actually feel that they are
being unfair" to her if they ac-
cept an invitation from Billy.
We need only outline this situa-
ton to show you how ridiculous it
| is. just remember that while
scruples may legitimately keep you
from giving a friend any competi-
ton in a real romance, it's hardly
necessary for you to respect her
day dreams! True, she may be hurt
if the imaginary suitor actually asks
you for real-life date, but the hurt
| won't last long And it will be good
for her to get her feet little closer
to the ground as far as boys are
| concerned.
Furthermore, even il Billy has
shown an interest in Babs, and
taken her out on occasions, he
shouldn't thereby be automatically
shut off from ever having a date
with one of her friends. This set
Ting down to steady happens soon
enough in any case-Why rush the
process?
Most teen-age girls would. If they
had their way, like to be taken out
by number of different boys. How
else can they tell which ones they
really like, and which they can
very easily get along without? Since
they feel this way, they certainly
should be willing for the boys they
known to enjoy the same privilege.
If Johnny takes you out occa-
sionally, and you have fun, fine. If
meanwhile, he takes out a couple
of your friends, it should still be
fine. Perhaps eventually you and
Johnny will want to cut out other
dates and go steady, but don't be
in too much of hurry about it.

Adult Company
Is Needed by
Children
Playing With Them
Refreshing After
Hard Days Work
By Leffice Lee Street,

It sometimes seems harder for
people with wealth to have time
for their children than the rest of
us, but no matter what our finan-
cial status, if we are trying to raise
family we should realize that it Is
good for children and parents alike
if they play together. What is a
greater compliment than to over
hear ones small son say, my pops
regular guy" or my mothers a
good sport" and children can't have
these feelings unless we play with
them as well as care for them.
True tnat some adults have for
gotten how they used to feel when
they were very young, or possibly
they had bitter, sad childhoods that
never taught them happiness, Or
perhaps they have grown so hard
shelled and stuffy that they can't
unbend and feel like a child again.
But If only they realized how
much they miss, and that their
children are being deprived of even
more, :.1ey might try. To make
the atte.np. and to take the time
is half the battle, and the next
thing they know they will be gay
themselves.
One of the first signs of old age
of the mind is to sniff at the goings-
on of the young, to be untouched
by the jolly chuckle of a bald
headed baby or the appealing sweet
ness Of a shy 3-year-old. Wrinkles
of the mind are more hurtful than
wrinkles on the face, and children
can erase lot of both if they are
allowed.

in harassing thoughts of troubles

Important Benefits
Of Salt Have Long
Been Realized
Bv Edith NJ. Barber

Nutrition as science is compara-
lively new Certain facts which re-
search has borne out were we'll
known, r.owever, to the ancient
world. Among the first of which
we have record was the realization
that mon could not live without
salt.
When the hunter lived on animal
food Amos entirely, natural salt
was supplied, but as soon as grains
came 10 be a staple, special care
necessarily had to .be taken to OBJ
tain supply of salt, not only for
man himself but for his domestic
animals. The first market places
were established for the exchange
of various products for salt from
the seacoaSt Ancient stone crosses
still femain at points where forest
paths met
In cold weather the proper amount
of salt water is retained by the
body, but in hot weather when
there Is heavy perspiration so much
water is lost that salt, which is
always con bined with water in our
tissues, is also eliminated. For this
reason a pirCh of salt is often added
to the water in hot weather.
The use of iodized salt, salt to
which a small amount of iodine is
added, has become rather common
since toe last war, when it was
shown that simple goiter resulted
from a lack of iodine in the diet.
Iodine is supplied by the sea itself
The clouds take this mineral from
the ocean and deposit it in our soil
Even IN a seacoast city, we may lack
iodine, as our water comes from a
distance, and this also is the case
with much of our vegetable and milk
supply Seafood, which naturally
supplies iodine, is not eaten In large
enough quantities to give us what
we need It is, therefore, a good
practice to use iodized salt on our
tables and in the preparation OF our
food.

Bicycling Aids
Both Health
And Beauty
It's Fine Exercise
But Should Be
Taken Easily
Bv Patricia Lindsay

Many girls write me about the
effects of bicycling. They are anx1-
Gus to know if it develops the leg
muscles too much, if it is a good
exercise, if it reduces the hips and
abdomen.
On the whole bicycling serves
both health and beauty and is good
for old and young, stout or thin.
But of course there are the eXcep-
tions.
A stout person who is flabby, who
has exercised little, would benefit
greatly by bicycling whenever she
could, as would girl who is un-
derdeveloped. The girl of normal
health and weight is fortunate and
she can embrace any sport without
fear. My only caution to this type
is to not overexercise. in her en-
thusiasm!
The pedaling of bicycling is ex-
cellent for firming the leg, thigh
and abdomen muscles, for stimu-
lating a sluggish bloodstream, and
for perfecting body balance which
leads to poise. Too heavy legs which
are fabby can be reduced; too thin
legs can be developed if one will
pedal up grades as well as on the
level. One should hold the abdo-
men in and up while pedaling. so
as to strengthen the midriff muscles
too. And naturally the benefit ac-
crued from getting out in the fresh
air and sunshine cannot be over
estimated.
Let me suggest that if you take
to cycling that you do not wear a
tight girdle-the little lastex panties
are sufficient support. BY all means
use a sun-burn preventative and
cover your hair to protect it from
dust and sun bleaching. Dress in
sports clothes-if you wear a skirt,
instead of a culotte or slacks, be
sure that it is of sufficient fullness
for you to pedal unhampered and
without exposing too much of your
limbs. Modesty demands this. 1t
is quite proper to wear perfume on
cycling parties providing fit is a
lusty, outdoor fragrance and not a
hot-house variety!
After cycling for hours it is best
to go through routine of neck,
shoulder and spine exercise to
counteract the STOPPING" necessary
in good cycling. Ten minutes of
counteracting exercises should suf-
flee to keep your figure trim, nicely
poised in good posture, and free Of
any i'll effects.
Foot-note: Girls with very firm,
highly developed leg muscles should
not cycle for long periods.
Brief trips are permitted.
