Jane Urges Course in Teaching Modesty.

Put vour problems in a letter to Jane Jordan, who will answer vour questions in this column daily,

EAR JANE JORDAN-Is it old-fashioned for one to have shame and self-re-spect? I'm a married woman of 23. I have two lovely baby boys, one three years old and the other eight months old. Some people seem to think that children are either dumb or don't notice things like what I am about to tell you, I always taught to have shame, and my dody was my own and not put on exhibition, I want to teach my bovs that, too. My in-laws are the opposite. There is nothing shameful about them, especially the women, They think it is perfectly all right for anvone at any time to see them without clothes. They insist that it is all right for my oldest boy to watch me bathe. At first I tried not to think much of it. When my boy sees them undressed he says, "Get some clothes n. You look funny.” he does notice. What Tell them how I feel from their home, o take it all out in thinking. I'm not the only old- girl left in the world. Please help me. PUZZLED.

By MRS. GAYNOR MADDOX NEA Service Staff Writer Lentils, lima and kidney beans are peers in the realm of domestic econ omy, the royal family of nourish ing foods with no national debt hung about their necks. Lima Bean Casserole (4 to 6 servings) Two cups dried lima beans, cold water to cover, 1 onion, 1 tablespoon olive oil, 2 teaspoon salt and 1 sliver * of garlic, brown sugar, sliced bacon, Wash beans carefully, soak in cold water. It is not necessary to soak the beans if you have plenty of time to let them cook long and slowly, To the water, just before you start to cook them, add the onion, olive oil, salt and garlic. Simmer until beans are tender. Butter a casserole. Turn in the soft beans and the liquor. Dust top with brown sugar. Across the beans lay several uncooked strips of bason. Bake in slow oven (300 degrees F.) for 30 minutes.
