SpeIImon Calls Visit
To Turkey Private

ISTANBUL. Turkey, May IS De-
layed (R.-Archbishop Francis J.
Spellman Of New York told the press
today his visit to Turkey was of a
private nature and that he was

He said he plans to stay in Turkey

The Archbishop refused to answer

He conferred with Vatican Under

Clarizio came from Rome to see him.
The Morocco radio, commenting

Crown Prince Umberto, and appoint

Learn to Be

By Patricia Lindsay

So it is off to school and what fun
in store-and what heartaches! For
boarding school and college (and
even high school can be cruel to
the girl who does not exert herself
to adjust her personality.
Many a true beauty has found
herself lonely and unpopular as she
wonders what the popular girls have
which she lacks.
Many a brilliant girl harbors a
heartache because she is left out of
the fun at school.
To be success at school (and

Fish of the Wharf,
BY Arfhnr II. Denfe

y
Today Fisherman's Wharf In San
Francisco is more than a wharf
where fishing boats come to unload
their catches OF fish. Today Fish
erman's Wharf is piscatorial
Coney Island, and while some Of the
family is out in the bay, or beyond
that, in the ocean, catching fish,
other members cater to the crowds
Of San Franciscans and tourists. 1t
Is an interesting and amazing spot,
with the great kettles, where the
giant Pacific ocean crabs are boiled
to a bright red, and the big and
little dining rooms, where the crea-
tions OF the waterfront chef are
served.
The real deep-down merit OF the
wharf lies in this fact: 1t was not
developed for the tourist. 1t grew
up for the needs Of the inhabi-
tants Of the nearby shore. Almost
all Of them worked in or near the
bay and the sea and lived thereby
If still too young or already too old
to work. They were, and still are, q
frugal, thrifty, intelligent people
They cooked their food from the in
gradients at hand and they applied
rare thought in the putting together
OF these ingredients, to make for epi-
curean favor. No hit-and-miss con-
coctions were theirs. No hasty grab
bing of this or that out OF carton
or a can. On the contrary, wisdom
and good sense Influenced the prep
aration of their dishes. A menu

little things which vary with each
personality. One child feels a bit
more secure If she knows her clothes
are right. Very often little girls
want to dress up in their best party
dress for the first day OF school.
Back Of this is the desire to top"
the rest of the crowd little bit
with the added assurance it gives.
A wise mother, knowing that her
small daughter might make herself
ridiculous, helps her out with some
thing new and becoming for her
first day, which gives her the same
amount of confidence but is in far
better taste for school than a party
dress.
Another child, playing for his
place, will brag about his own
prowess the first few days of school
and make himself so unpopular that
it will take months to overcome this
reputation. A few words of advice
from mother and father about
going slowly" for the first few days
Is often enough of a reminder to
overcome this.
IT parents recognize the fact that
the youngster has some special
ability, they might permit him the
pleasure Of showing off his talent.
The rest Of his classmates will be
very quick to admire the real thing.

Shining Armor for our Child

f-confidence is one Of the
greatest assets any young person
may have to fight their schoolday
battles. We do not refer to the play
ground rough-and-tumble fist fights
in which Drawn usually counts,
but to the more subtle contest for
popularity and success which the
school child enters each day. The
"teen-ages," just entering junior
high school, shows these battle scars
more than at any other age.
Up to that age they have been
little boys and girls with parents
and teachers ready to stand by to
keep the frail ones from being
picked on. Later on they will have
learned their way around and can
be hurt less by the little sword
thrusts Of every day. But at IL and
13 they wouldn't be sissy and ask
for help If they could help it, and
1t is at this time that parents and
advisers must be on hand to offer
assistance before it is asked, or bet
ter yet to circumvent the appeal by
stepping in and smoothing the way
over some OF the bumps. All the
things that home and parents are
good for are doubly essential at this
time.

Cook this together for about 10
minutes. Then place the pieces Of
fish In the sauce and at the same
time include cup or two of cleaned
shrimp. In San Francisco, a me-
dfurn size crab Is added. broken

two of canned crab or lobster meat
will do, but in that case, it must

of the wharf who would consider it

locale, few dozen mussels will fit

This mixture Is simmered slowly
for half an hour-carefully so the
fish does not break up. II needed, a
little tomato juice Is added to sup
ply more moisture. About minutes
before serving, tablespoonful Of
chopped parsley Is added, and, for
those who wish to do so, there may
be a cup OF good, dry, white wine.
In making the salad dressing, the
vinegar should, by choice, be red
wine vinegar. Bread should be
roundish loaf OF French or Italian
bread. Monterrey cheese is found
all around the Bay of San Francisco,
but it does not ship well. so one uses
the cheese of the home locality. The
wine, If desired, must OF course be
the dry variety-never, never, never
a sweet wine with such dinner
course. Or the wine may give way
to bottled beer.

II would like to know whether
salad green's and vegetables lose
their vitanins when kept in the re-
frigerator several days. I can only
market twice week. and I have
to get my supplies ahead" This
came to me recently.
OF course. any of us with Victory
gardens will use our green's and
vegetables as soon as possible after
picking. Those of us who have to
buy at the market must give our
vegetables the best possible care
after they reach the kitchen. If we
buy them early in the morning and
refrigerate them quickly, there will
probably be less loss than if they
had remained all day at the market.
1t Is amazing how crisp and fresh
vegetables keep in the refrigerator.
Most of them shouA' Re kept covered.
I have two hydrators, one of which
I reserve for salad green's and the
other for vegetables. If need more
space, I use a refrigerator bag, or
even a paper bag in which the veg
etables arrive.
Salad greens should be washed
and drained as dry as possible. A
large strainer may be used for shak-
ing off the water which clings to the
leaves. A head of lettuce may be
easily separated by letting cold
water run into the center OF the
head. No wilted leaves should ever
be put with the fresh leaves. I do
not wash string beans or peas be-
fore store them, and, of course, do
not cut the ends nor shell until
am ready to use them. Cucumbers
and tomatoes may be washed before
storing.
I have been asked to repeat the
basic recipe for French dressing,
which can be made in any quantity
you like and stored in a covered
dish or jar in the refrigerator. I
am also giving recipe for a special
tomato dressing made with the fresh
vegetable which will be so plentiful
during the next months. This dress
ing also keeps well in the refrigera-

Soap Scare in Europe

Less than eight pounds of soap
per person was the ration Of the
people of Germany during the past
year. In the same year Americans
used between 26 and 27 pounds per
person. According to DR.. Olga
Ittner, writing in the Daily Tele-
graph of London, the soap picture
IN Germany Is even worse than
these figures would indicate, because
the soap there consists largely of
clay, bound with 1S per cent or less
of anhydrous soap content.
1t is typical of German treatment
that occupied countries get only one
kilogram, or slightly over two pounds
Of this so-called soap, per person for
