grin at the boy now, a grin Of per-
feet comradeship as II he and
Buffy, being men, had much more
in common than they could share
with any woman.
Eyes, you are here" the boy re-
turned, smiling back with a smile
that seemed to say that that being
so made everything all right. why
do you call Karen 'aunty'?" he
asked. she Is not your aunt also,
is she?
Its a game he plays" Karen put
in swiftly. with a malicious grin all
her own. Martin always has called

as we'll as Buffy's. we could be
brothers without any further ar

"Goody" Buny clapped his
hands and borrowed one OF the
slang words he had picked up,
mostly from Martin.
"Of course" Karen's tone was a
bit chilly, that only makes me
about-let's see-45 or so. You and
Buffy could be brothers by some

offered, his eyes grave again. He
did not quite understand all this
grown-up nonsense, but Karen had
said it was a sort Of game, too.
II didn't suppose there was any
thing wrong with my given name"
Karen interpose1 hastily, feeling
that tell-tale color mount her
cheeks.
II stand rebuked," Martin said,
almost as swiftly, his grin begging
forgiveness now. He said, changing
the subject to safer ground. but
what l came for this time was to
ask IL I might borrow Buffy, say
for an afternoon? That was why
I came when knew you would BE
here"
I'm grateful for that explana-

rate sarcasm. But she saw how the
boys face had lighted up. Maybe
Martin sensed that something had
gone wrong. as there were still

that it would be good for him. If

WHEN THE child burst out cry
ing, which was so unlike him that
Karen was instantly alarmed, she
forgot all the thoughts that hac
been bothering her. She knew bet
ter now than to gather that little
shaking body, flung face down
ward, into her arms. That would
only cause Bufy to cry harder. not
help him TO master his sobs. II
would make him ashamed after
ward that he had given into them
even before Karen.
So without touching him. al
though her arms ached to do so
Karen said. That's okay, Buffy. A
good cry does a fellow good now
and then. But suppose, when you
can, you tell me what it's all
about?" He had said hat he did
not want to go up in Pauls plane,
so that must be behind 1t. Oh, yes,
she had told the child that the
plane he had heard overhead might
have been Pauls. But nothing had
been said, as far as Karen knew,
about Buffy's going up in it. Surely
Paul had not mentioned such a
thing to the boy, not when Karen
had been careful to warn him that
the boy must be given plenty Of
time, not pressed or hurried along
this line OF fear.
II cannot tell you" Buffy
managed, his head still averted, his
little body still shaking, though its
tremors were gradually subsiding.
You mean you would rather
not" Karen supposed she ought not
press him with this then, either.
Oh, dear, boys were so different
from little girls. Having to pretend,
at such an early age. that bumped
knee did not hurt. that tears, and
even confession, were weaknesses.
Maybe that was the way it had to
be since they had to grow up to be
men, especially now in a world
where men seemed to have reverted
to the brutal ages where force
welded its ugly sword over the
weak and the just. If Buffy had
been a little girl it would have been
easier for Karen. She could not be
expected to understand boys well,
as Marty and even her father did.
After little wait Karen tried
again. you know, Buffy. you need
not do anything you don't want to,
like going up in a plane, for in
stance. AS for that, I expect some
day you will want to try it, since
it's lots of fun. All the houses and
the people in the streets and the
automobiles, they look like tiny,
cut-out ones that a little boy or
girl could play with. And the coun-
try, it looks just like that big map
hung in the nursery, with little
ribbons of rivers and crumply
raised places for mountains and
hills. Maybe, some day, 20. and I
will go up in plane together. How
would that be?
Buffy's body was not shaking
now. II had quoted as he listened.
He still did not turn his head, his
voice was muffied, but he said, II
guess that that might be all right
maybe" Then after another little
silence, he added, Gould not Marty
go with us, also, please?" He did
not add that then he might be will
ing, but his tone implied it. =
Karen smiled. She said, II guess
we might be able to arrange that.

Buffy how TO sail the boat; he hao

doubt. crept up on them to sur

People die from heart failure
when someone comes on them and
says 'Boor" Karen reproved, but
her welcoming smile softened 1t a
bit. Her own heart was pounding as
if she had been running fast.
Your heart is much too strong
and set for that" He gave her his
wide grin that held disapproval of
a heart like that.
IT did not hear you say Boo"
Buffy was sitting up now, hands
clasped about his knees, his seri-
Gus little face cleaning with inter-
est. That was why he liked Marty
so much; he never did things like
other people; he made a game of
everything and yet he treated you
as if you were almost grown up be-

planned, throwing his long length
down on the sand beside them,
his eyes against the sun.

ting in the sunlight. He said some
thing to the following effect: How
in the world did our parents and
grandparents get along when they
couldn't get vitamins, although |
will say that they are very expen-
slve because | just got a box of
them and they cost me $3.50"
| asked him what he had had for
lunch and he said carrots, cabbage
and beans. So | called his atten-
ton to the fact that he had en-
quilted quite a lot Of vitamins in
his regular meal, which was just
the way his grandparents got
theirs. And just the way Adam
and Eve got theirs. When Eve ate
the apple she may have got quite
a dose Of sin, but she also got quite
a wad Of vitamins A, B, c, and a
= little B..
Vitamins in Diet
In his carrots my friend got
about 200 units of vitamin A,
about so units of B, and about 10
. units of c. In his cabbage he got
A. B, c and B.. In his beans he got
A, B., c and B.. | asked him if he
ever took any orange juice, and of
course he said he took it every
riorning, so said, you get plenty
of Nitamin c.
Then | asked him whether he
ate any meat and he said yes, he
loved ham and eggs, and | said,
We'll, you get about $50 Inter-
national Units of B. in the ham.
and nearly everything but vitamin
c in the eggs, and since he was
sitting in the sunlight he was
manufacturing Yitamin D in his
skin, and so he was practically
getting everything he needed with
out the $3.50 box of tablets. And
also the way his grandfather got
vitamins was just the way he was
getting them-to wit, through his
food.
People who are worrying about
their vitamin intake should go to
a large nutrition experiment lab
oratory and watch them trying to
process food so as to get all the
vitamins out of it. Or even worse,
to get all of one vitamin out so
they can make controlled expert
ments.
Human Requirement
Vitamins became a human re-
quirement by a process of adapta-
ton to environment in the course
of evolution. 1t is perfectly SIM
pie and scientific to imagine ami
mails who do not need any vitamins
at all. Plants are living organisms
that in the course of evolution
manufacture their tissue mostly
out of sunlight, air and water.
But the food that animals, and
later man, ate contained vitamins
and the animal organism gradu-
ally adapted itself to utilizing
them so it grew to be habit that
they couldn't get along without.
Did you ever develop a habit that
you finally couldn't get along
without? Yes, you developed one,
which is that your food must con-
tain vitamins.
Of course, to answer the origi-
nal question: 1t is safe to take
vitamin pills, but tough on the
pocketbook $3.50 versus .071a
cents.

House Passage Sends
Sterilization Fund
Bill 10 ConfereeS
Amendment Is Adopted
To Bar Use Of Cash
For World Bank
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press
The House today passed the SEN
ate-approved bill extending for two
years the Presidents authority over
$4,000, 100000 stabilization fund
but added an amendment which its
author said would prevent use of
the money in the proposed joint
s5,000,000,000 international banking
fund.
The measure extends the Presi-
dents authority over the stabiliza-
ton fund, but withdraws his power
to devalue the dollar.
The House on a voice vote first
approved the amendment offered by
Representative Reed, Republican, of
Illinois to prevent use of the fund
in the proposed international sta
bilization fund and then quickly
passed the measure on a voice vote,
sending it for adjustment of the
Senate and House versions to con-
ference committee
Tlfe Coinage Committee inserted
Representative Reeds amendment
and the House approved it within
matter of minutes.
No effort was made by the COM
mittee in it's action to include in
the bill extension beyond June 30
of the Presidents authority to de-
value the dollar That provision was
eliminated from the Senate bill.
The committee only yesterday
voted unanimously against the bill,
Chairman Somers saying then that
this indicated there is not going to
be any international bank" How
ever, the bill was left open to amend
ments and today's action resulted.
The Ireasury's stabilization au-
thority, allowing it to buy and sell
foreign currencies to keep stable
their relation to the dollar, will ex-
pire June 80 unless renewed.
