Study Food Values to Save Money BY SISTER MARY XF.A Service Writer It is perfectly possible to provide a cheap but adequate dietary without sacrificing the essential food values, if you study the properties of natural foodstuffs. Monotony also can be avoided if | you use your imagination and crea-; *ive ability and develop the art of good cooking. Several factors Influence the amount the average family ordi- j narily spends for food. Individual tastes, nutrition re- 1 qulrements, avoidance of waste and economical planning control the food | hudget as definitely as does the size of our pocketbook. It frequently has been estimated that not more than one-fourth of ’ the Income should be allowed for food. First of Necessities But when the income falls below what might be considered even a moderate sum, the allowance for food may be above the allotted onefourth, due to the fact that food is of the first importance on the fist of necessities. When the World war enforced a combination of economy and food conservation, the United States food administration advocated the division of the food allowance into fifths. Miss Lucy Gillet of the New York Association for Improving the Con- j dition of the Poor gives this simple, workable basis for the food divi-' sion: “One-fifth, more or less, for J vegetables and fruits. “One-fifth, or more, for milk and \ cheese. “One-flfth, or less, for meats, fish and eggs. "One-fifth, or more, for bread and cereals. “One-fifth, or less, for fats, sugar and other groceries and food adjuncts.” Meals Well Balanced If you try this arrangement for a week or two you will find that you are serving well balanced meals which furnish protein, fat, carbohydrates, mineral constituents and vitamins. *■ In your meal planning, don't overlook the cereals. The germ part of grains especially is of great value and Is classed with the “protective foods.” Dried fruits and dried vegetables are cheap sources of energy and mineral salts. Root Vegetables Inexpensive The root vegetables and cabbage have a long season and are very inexpensive. They supply many valuable nutrients for the minimum outlay. Cheese should not be forgotten as % means toward economy. A concentrated food, it contains no waste and is rich in calories. It's an excellent source of vitamin A and a good source of vitamin B. There are many varieties of fish that lend themselves to low-cost meals.

WHAT’S IN FASHION?—

NEW YORK. Nov. 4.—Wonder if playing at being grown-up is due to go out of date with little girls? Certainly there’s not much incentive for young Jane's surreptitiously borrowing mother's clothes to strut in. For Jane’s owm clothes look so very much like her mother’s. Especially her winter coat. In it she can be just a mlnature of mother. We’ve seen cute little tricks marching around in coats with detachable fur capes . . . coats with cloth capes bordered in fur . . . coats with epaulets and with plastrons of fur. (Anew coat with Persian lamb plastron is sketched.) Their waistlines in these new coats are as neatly nipped in as ‘ any grown-up's. Their sleeves copy j the adult fashion of wider shoulders and looser armholes . . . made by i raglan cut or by sleeves shirred into i a dropped shoulder line. Some of the newest coats have little muffs to match their collars . . . even as grown-up coats have. One of beige broadcloth we saw on a little redhead the other day had a detachable beaver capelet, for all the world like the little collarettes women’s fashions copy from the 1890 s.

When you we a letter In this column that awakens your sympathy, write to the person who wrote it. The best letters will be published. A SHORT time ago we had a letter from a widower (C. T. C.) with children, who said he could not get a woman to marry him because of the children. He complained that women left with children expect a man to marry them and take care of the children with a glad cry, whereas they by no means are willing to reciprocate. We have here a number of letters of sympathy for C. T. C. from women who have just as hard a time finding husbands willing to be encumbered v with children as C. T. C. has in locating a wife. Dear Jane Jordan—l Just read C. T. C's letter. I am a widow in the same boat. X also have had dates and could marrv. but the men seem to think children make a woman old. I am not old in aRe or looks, for I was married young. X am not lookinß for a man to take care of mv children, but I would like to have a Rood man to help pass awav the lonesome hours. I love to work and nave worked very hard, but I also am full of fun and love a Rood time. If I loved a man. I wouldn’t care if he had a dozen children. You have met the wronß kind of women, C. T. C. They are lookinß for a meal ticket and no work. A LONESOME WIDOW. Dear Lonesome Widow—A woman with children and no husband still is incomplete, even if she is able to support them herself. The terrific craving for someone to go along with, for someone of equal intelli-

And we watched this youngster j take off the capelet and try it on j over her dress , . . showing she had ! the right idea for next spring! Another very gay little tweed had a rever of leopard ending in a tiny stand-up collar of the fufv Still another of dark green had fabric epaulets across th shoulders with detachable, double beaver collar. All this may sound as though that good old standby—the doubiebreasted, "regulation” coat—is out of fashion. But not a bit of it. It's as smart this year as ever. Sometimes its collar is of fur — beaver or nutria preferred. Sometimes not. Occasionally it is of velvet. (One yellow we noted had a brown velvet collar. And a hat to go with it was piped in (he brown velvet.) Many coats for smaller girls have hats to match. Berets ... or brimmed hats with pom-poms of fur. • Tweeds are favorite fabrics this year. Some mixture tweeds; some one-color diagonal tweeds: some kemp tweeds. Chinchilla is important in regulation coats. And a few of the dressier ones are made of broadcloth or suede finished woolens.

gence to share experiences with, never leaves her for a moment. However, woman's fear of loneliness leads her to make many mistakes, which the following letter will show youa a a Dear Jane Jordan—l am writinß to C. T. c. and Disheartened. Mv experience takes in both of theirs. When I was 17 years'old. I married a man fourteen years my senior. He was divorced apj had two children. I married because I was homeless myself and felt sorry for his oldest child, whom he was supposed to care for. The mother had the youngest. What a terrible mistake! The child would spend the week-ends with his mother and when he came back things always were worse. Then we had two little girls of our own. He always stood up for his boy and told me I didn't like the child, that I mistreated him. and so the storm grew. Now his children are grown and ours are 10 and 12. Their father is old and has no patience with the children. Thinks he can put old heads on young shoulders. I still am young and heartsick with my past life. So take my advice. Disheartened, and don't marry a man older than vourself with children. And to C. T. C. don’t marrv until your children are old enough to take care of themselves. FROM ONE-WHO-KNOWS. Dear One-Who-Knows— Perhaps your letter will help C. T. C. to see why women hesitate to marry a man with children. The p 'ssibilities for misunderstanding are legion. a a a Dear Jane Jordan: I want to encourage C. T. C. to keep on looking for his ideal lady. I was a mother to four orphan babies, and I raised them as though I was their real mother, and thpy have praised me highly for what I did for them. I was only a young girl when I start-

ed to take care of them. Their father died r. fev, years later, so I was both lather and mother. I had several offers of marriage and home for irtyself, provided the children were to go to someone else, but as no one else wanted to relieve me of the job, I stayed on. Now they are all grown and I am left to be dependent on someone else for a home, as I can’t find work of any kind. I hope that C. T. C. will see that all ladies are not unreasonable about children. ORPHANS’ MOTHER. Dear Orphan’s Mother Your story is a shining success in a long list of failures by the women who tried to bring up some other woman’s children. Congratulations. a a a Dear Jane Jordan—After reading C. T. C’s letter, I couldn’t keep from writing. I’m a 32-year-old mother with children, and I don’t believe many men want a family with a family either. I don’t see why it would be more difficult to be a good stepmother -than*it would to be a good stepfather. If a man and a woman love each other, they can’t help but love each other’s children. I sympathize with C. T. C., because I know from experience that home isn’t complete without a father and suspect he feels the same about a home without a mother. Cheer up, some of the men aren’t playing fair, either. e. B. Dear E. B.: The stepmother’s job is harder because she is with the children more. While it is natural.

to feel a sentimental interest in the children of the person one loves, It is not always possible to get along with them, a a a Dear Jane Jordan—l want to say to C.,T. C. that I think it is a fifty-fifty proposition in regard to someone helping us take care of our children. I have plenty of friends and plenty of men who are willing to go out for a good time, but when duty calls me and there are bad times and blue times, where are my friends? JUST 39. And what has C. T. C. to say to this? Mrs. William W. Perrin, formerly Miss Kathleen Hottel, is visiting her parents, Mr. and Mrs. Lee H. Hottel, 25 West Forty-ninth street.
