WhyGrow

By Josebhine Lo,rman


1t is always interesting to talk
to Miss Charlotte Hess. She is one
of New York's most competent and
clever instructors. She and I have
fun when We discuss feminine figure
problems and show each other exer-
cises. This time I picked up sew
eral Of hers that are different, and
7 will pass them along to you.
Every woman would be inter-
ested in exercise If she realized
what It does for her figure. It not
only speeds the loss in inches and
distributes weight beautifully but
it firms the flesh, also. As though
these benefits were not enough, 1t
has a wonderful reaction in in
creased health.
I know one woman's husband who
insists that she take exercise classes
because she loses her fairly mild but
painful and chronic arthritis when
she exercises regularly. I know ply
sicians who send patients to ex-
ercise classes in order to raise low
blood pressure back to normal, and
every time I teach, dozens Of women
tell me that they have entirely
overcome fatigue and stiff joints
and many other annoying ailments.
Exercise is indeed the magic Ian
tern with which woman can beautif-
fy her figure and which she can take
into middle life with her as a guard
against the nmddle-aged spread. As
women grow older most of them
have more difficulty In controlling
their curves. Around 40 fat begins
appearing In new places and is more
persistent.
The middle-aged woman should
use judgment in the way she uses
this weapon against aging and ia
tigue. She should have a physical
examination before starting and
should begin slowly but she should
not discard exercise because she Is
a certain age.
Today's exercise Is wonderful for

Cooking
for Men
Bv The Chef

Several readers of late have been
writing me for a list Of books con-
tanning recipes of particular interest
to men. I suspect they are plan
ming to be married, and being wise
Young women want to know how to
feed their spouses to the kings taste.
Naturally cookbooks written by
men are the best to follow when
looking for this type OF recipe. Sucn
books as a rule are not set up to
act as real working cookbooks, with
step by step directions, careful def-
f,itions and so on. They are rather
on the chatty and debonair side
and assume knowledge of culinary
fundamentals in the reader. So
would warn any new housekeeper to
purchase one of the real textbooks,
time tested and containing all
groundwork, to supplement the
lighter, more epicurean volume Of
fering dishes to delight her man.
There are many excellent books
that specialize in certain cookery
f1elds-several Of which, incidental
ly. were written-and superbly-by
women. Among these are Jeanne
owens "Book of Sauces" and "A
Wine Lovers Cookbook" and "A
Meal in ITSELF" splendid collection
of fine soups by my friend and
colleague, Mary Frost Mabon. I
believe the specializing" books can
be taken up later. What my CORE
spondents seem to need Is a more
general group of recipes, presented
from and for the masculine angle.
Cooking a la Ritz" by Louis
dat, is an excellent group OF cpl
curean recipes, ably presented by
q master in his field. Directions
are clear and simple, and for the
most part the recipes are not too
"ritzy," despite the title. Then there
Is "The Gun Club Book" by Charles
Browne; "The Best Men Are Cooks"
by Frank Shay, and Andre Simon's
Invaluable French Cookbook" Will
liam Rhodes "Of Cabbages and
Kings" Herman Smiths "Stina"
and kitchens Near and Far" are
packed with running comment and
amusing anecdotes, as well as with
wonderful recipes. The late Arthur
Deute's 400 Dishes for Men to
Cook" had the distinction OF being
among books picked by the Army
for shipment overseas and Is full
of recipes that appeal to masculine
tastes.
Although 1t was not written by a
man, and is not particularly aimed
at the masculine field, let me here
recommend new book that re-
Gently has reached my desk, "The
Gordon Bleu Cookbook" by Dione
Lucas. It contains the finest French
recipes from the famous Gordon
Bleu restaurants and schools, espe-
cially adapted for American home
cooking. This is one book that no
kitchen bookshelf should be with
out.

Mrs, James Kelly. Of Washington,
is building a house. She's building
it in a corner cupboard.
The decorating began four months
ago when, to her husbands horror,
Mrs. Kelly began to replace glass
ware with furniture. His horror
dissolved when he saw attractive
paper on the walls, thick carpeting
on the floors, and rooms taking
shape. Imagination and the ability
to act as decorator, workman and
electrician have well served Mrs.
Kelly in creating her home within
a home.
The house Is a four STORY affair.

The fish and cheese routine OF
lenten meals is very apt to develop
into a monotonouS pattern after a
couple of weeks. You wonder how
to vary those meatless meals; what
to serve the family becomes para
mount in your mind. Eggs are just
as good for dinner as they are Tor
breakfast if you give them a little
extra appetite appeal.
To most of us an egg Is just an
egg, and too often scant attention
Is paid to the importance Of cook
ing eggs properly. Since there is
no other single article OF food that
Is utilized in such variety OF
different ways it is we'll to know the
why's and wherefores Of good egg
cookery. One point that should al
ways be taken into consideration IN
preparing any dish using eggs as
the main ingredient is the cooking
Temperature. Too high heat in
variably makes eggs tough, leathery
and indigestible.
Another point to consider is that
even when eggs are high In price
they are still an economical food,
due to the fact they are completely
without waste. The nutritive value
Of an egg is another important fac
tor to remember. Eggs are high in
protein (actually over 13 per cent?
they rank with meat, milk and
cheese in that quality; egg yolks are
rich in iron: they contain three
OF the 3 vitamins-thiamin, ribo-
fiavin and niacin-plus vitamins A
and D1.
Frequently in egg dishes the recipe
calls for the beating Of eggs either
to blend the yolks and whites or to
incorporate air into the mixture and
thus act as leavening agent. There
are varying degrees OF beating an
egg, when the term beaten until
light" is used it means until frothy
and foamy but not stiff enough SO
the egg whites will hold their shape;
"stifiy beaten" means they will re-
tain their shape or stand in peaks
when beaten dry" the whites will
be less light-in fact will have lost

some of the air incorporated in the
beating process. When using egg
whites in souffles or cakes where
they act as whole or part of the
leavening, a good rule to follow is
do not beat the whites until ready
to use. If left standing, the all
escapes and the egg white returns te

Casey Breaks Down
lin Protest 10 Judqe
lon Tax Case RuIinq
BY the Associated Press

BALTIMORE, Mar. 20.-Tears
welled from the eyes of Eugene B.
Casey, former White House aide
charged with evading $4,000 in in
come taxes, as he protested Federal
Judge w. Calvin Chesnut's rulings
against the admissibility of certain
of his testimony yesterday.
I'm on trial here for my life"
he cried. After all this my life may
not be worth much, but have
others to think Of
"I have an aged mother. I have
five children. And I am fighting
for them"
Judge Chestnut called a temporary
recess to allow the 42-year-old
Gaithersburg farmer and consulting
engineer, who served as one of
President Roosevelt's six executive
assistants, to compose himself.
Charges "Hounding."
Mr.. Casey told the court that Gov
arnment investigators have been aft
er him like a lot of hounds after
a rabbit
He declared he has been hound
ed and harangued," that his rec
ords have been searched" his 'em-
ployes have been coerced," and his

The Government contends his re-
turns for the years 1941-43 were
Incorrect. Mr.. Casey's attorneys
have admitted this, arguing that he
entrusted preparation of the re-
turns to an unsuitable" accountant
and had no intention of detraud-
ing the Government.
Many Details Barred.
In his testimony, Mr.. Casey re-
peatedly sought to introduce de-
tails Judge Chestnut ruled irrele-
want. 1t was one of these rulings,
forbidding him to testify about

his returns he says he made in
1943, that brought Mr.. Casey's tear

things that way" Mr.. Casey de-
clared. "If I hadn't wanted to pay

At another point, referring to his
duties for President Roosevelt and
his later naval service, he said:
