This sugar rationing has far
reaching angles. including what to
call your wife when all the sweet
sounding names no longer have
meaning! It's true, too, that bees,
who produce most Of our other
sweetening, have to be fed on sugar
when the flowers are not In bloom
and react badly when corn sirup Is
substituted. On the other hand. II
the sugarless menu which was
served at the Women's National
Press Club luncheon yesterday is a
criterion, this member sees no rea-
son for any suffering. Natural fruit
juices, honey and corn sirup formed
the backbone Of all the recipes from
salad dressings to sherbet and cakes
and though the sugar bowl sat In
the middle of the table 1t was prac-
tically ignored.
DR.. w. N. Sebrel Of the Public
Health Service said that he fek sure
the loss of sugar and the loss Of
tires would probably do more for the
general health OF the Nation than
any other item. Sugar is nothing
but calories and the same amount
of energy may be obtained from ce-
real with more healthful results.
Natural sugars have q few vitamins
and minerals which give them an
ledge" on refined sugar. but all Of
this can be gained through the
proper use Of cereals and the new
enriched white flour bread.
Mr.. John E. Hamm, senior deputy
administrator Of o. P. A., discussed
the sugar rationing plan at some
length, explaining the reasons that
it is not yet in operation. Though
family rationing for 100 million
people in their homes may seem like
a big task 70 you and to me, this Is
a mere nothing to the board. They
must make a study Of how much
the soft drink companies may have,
how much the tobacco manufactur-
ers are allowed to cure their tobacco,
and dozens of other complex ques-
tions. They even must decide how
much the thrifty housewife will be
able to get to do her canning.
From DR.. Stanley's kitchen at the
Bureau of Home Economics Miss
Emily Davis brought seven kinds Of
cookies made without sugar. Mrs.
Nesbitt from the White House was
responsible for the salad with fruit
dressing which is served instead Of
dessert at the end Of q meal at the
Presidents table. A delicious sherbet
made with apple sirup was intended
to be served during luncheon as an
accompaniment. to broiled lamb
chops, but it came in as dessert.
The baffled walters could not be

EWhy Grow
EOld?
By Josephine Lowman

We should always have diets which
defend us in war or peace, against
living at a low level OF health.
Vitamin c aids us in building up
stamina which will, in turn, fight
infection.
Here are some important facts
about vitamin c.
Il, While we find vitamin G in
milk and fruits. these do not (out-
side Of the citrus fruits) provide
great amounts. The white potato,
when baked, retains vitamin. c, while
fried potatoes keep very little OF it..
Cabbage Is a cheap and rich source
Of this vitamin, but when cooked
with usual methods, most OF 1t Is
lost. Raw cabbage is good source
and when this vegetable is cooked
It should be done as rapidly as pos
sible. No water should be thrown
away and no soda used.
2. Citrus fruits-lemons oranges
and grapefruit-are our best sources
OF vitamin C.. Latest opinions are
that these three fruits. weight for
weight, are equal in vitamin c con-
tent.
3. According to one opinion,
orange Juice Is Just as good whether
canned, fresh or chilled. However,
oranges In storage do lose goodly
percentage of their vitamin content.
= 4. Tomato juice contains about
half as much vitamin c as the
citrus fruit juices. Canned tomato
Juice is just as good as fresh.
5. While strawberries, raspberries
and gooseberries are good sources Of
vitamin c, they are not as rich as
orange Juice.

Exciting Millinery
By Florell Seen
In Local Store

Meeting Mr.. Walter Florell Is
something to tuck away in the back
of your mind for those winter nights
In the future when your granchil-
dren will surround you and ask.
What was the fashion business like.
grandma?" Then you will tell them
about your luncheon with Mr..
Floreu, a charming gentleman, a
top-notch millinery designer and a
visitor to a local store in Washington
way back on March is in ~.
You may even drag out the clip
ping that appeared in the paper on
March 18, and which read like this:
"Florell's hats are undoubtedly
the most dramatic and exciting to
be seen in town for many a day.
Like most of the well-known de-
signers, he has emphasized feminin-
ity and color, but he uses a dis
tinctive touch that is somehow all
his own. It's the same sort of touch
that makes him have all his flower
trimming especially done, that in
spires him to create his own pat
terms for veilings, and exquisite ones
they are.
"Our favorites in the current COL
lection are the great. swooping sail
ors that have wells which snap on
the side; others with dainty yelling
gathered on the front and tied under
the chin. Or perhaps we really
prefer the tiny little sailors Of satin,
trimmed with forget-me-nots. On
the other hand, our real love may
be that tiny felt with the half
snood effect of dainty lace. You can
see the state we're in"
And then, having read the clip
ping. you'll remind your audience
that Mr.. Florell foresaw the end of
insane millinery" Conversation
pieces are fine. he declared over
luncheon, but you could put q ring
In woman's nose II you just wanted
novelty and something to talk about
You can further say that Mr.. F.
predicted the return Of Paris as a
fashion influence at the end Of the
war-and that he had said all along
that he would remain in America
creating the kind Of hats that have
made him one Of the most i'm
portant designers In the millinery
field. H. v.

speaking OF PATRIOTISM, with a
slightly more subtle approach. We
think that one well-known creator
Of nail products has some useful
ideas about conservation. In addi-
ton to her advice that it is a good
idea to save old bottles because a
way may be found to salvage and re-
use the plastic and metal tops, she
makes the following suggestions:
Drain brush against neck of bottle
before using, to guard against waste.
Wipe the outside neck of the bottle
with tissue before screwing the cap
back on. If the neck is allowed to
clog, the cap will not screw on
tightly-which causes evaporation.
More ideas on the subject are
these: Buff nails before applying
polish. for this smooths the surface
and makes the polish cling better.
Use base coat, a coat of your IA
vorite shade and finishing appn-
cation of colorless protector.
"Feather-tip" your polish remove
a hair-line at the nail-tip) and over
tip your top coat CbrIng it over the
edge and down the under side Of
the nail-tip). Wear your nails "in
moderation"-just long enough to
protect the fingertip-and file them
in shallow, rather than pointed,
ovals. Use cuticle oil or cream
daily to keep your nails in tip-top
shape, and practice the many mail
saving" devices. BY that we mean
that you can use your fingers rather
than your nails for grasping and
lifting; you can use pencil for
dialing the phone; you can wear
cotton gloves for housework.
Finally, to conserve polish re-
mover. saturate cotton and press it
against the nail for several minutes
before you do the actual removing
job. Three dips" OF the remover
should be enough for a complete
clean sweep" Incidentally. our re-
port from this manufacturer ends on
happy note-at least as far as
we're concerned. Says she, The
present indication Is that deep
shades will be available, just as
light ones are. So don't hoard
darker shades" Nom, we won't.

The big thing that is the matter
with marriage is the lack Of freedom
1t entails. Not the freedom for extra
marital adventures, for there are not
many either masculine or feminine
philanderers and most people when
they marry are ready to settle down
and 60 domestic, but the lack OF
freedom to do as they please about
little things. Since the henpecked
husband and the doormat wife are
familiar figures In our midst. 1t Is
a strange thing that they do not
stand as such an awful warning OF
the risk of losing ones personal
liberty by marriage that the world
is not filled with old bachelors and
old maids. But such Is not the
case. Perhaps love makes even the
cautious foolhardy, or the optimis-
tic believe that it is a catastrophe
that couldn't happen to them. ANY,
way the wedding bells jingle mer-
rily on, though for most brides and
bridegrooms they are the death
knell of their last breath OF free
dom. Now husbands and wives do
not deliberately set about enslaving
each other. They do not plan with
malice aforethought to ALLEVIATE each
others affections and wreck their
marriages. Yet, if they did, they
could find no quicker. surer, more
deadly method of doing 1t than by
constituting themselves their mates
jailers and making marriage .
prison out Of which even a worm
of the dust would long to escape.
Not without reason do We speak
Of the marriage bond. For millions
Of husbands and wives marriage
is bondage. The tie that binds is
steel fetter that cuts into the
flesh and makes q fostering sore
that never ceases to ache, that
hampers their every movement and
turns what should be a joyous COM
panionship into bitter rebellion
or a sullen acquiescence.
If you would ask hundred mar
ried men and women what was the
thing in marriage that they resented
most, II they answered truly they
would say: The loss Of our free
DOM" And the man would add:
"When married never suspicioned
that I would have no more liberty

I don't mind the work it takes to

it calls for, but it gets on my nerves
