Jane Asks For Wife's

Viewpoint

Husband’s Story May Not Present Full Picture, Jordan Suggests.

Your comment on all problems which interest you is invited. The best letters will be published. :

HE editor has handed Jane © Jordan a story called “The Green Coupe,” written by a reader of the The Times who wants it published for the good it may do.

Because it is so long I must rewrite it to fit this space. The writer of this story and his wife were taking a drive when they notice a green coupe ahead in which a young man and a baby were riding. The baby, about 18 months old, was unusually beautiful and affectionate and kissed the young man from time to time. As the writer and his wife passed the green coupe, they noticed the father of the child had tears in his eyes and wore the saddest expression they had seen in many days. A little further down the road the couple stopped to investigate a sputtering engine, and the green coupe stopped to help. Struck by the tears in the sad young man’s eyes, the writer ventured to ask him where the baby’s mother was. “She is getting a divorce,” he said, as he drew the baby close, ‘but she lets me have the baby whenever I want him.” The writer's conclusion is this: “This young man should never be _ ‘separated from his wife or baby, for if you had seen him as I did, you would know the true meaning of love. As sure as there is a God, that young man loves his wife and baby more than life itself. “The girl, no doubt, thinks she loves someone: else who may be bet- " ter looking, or have a better car, or able to show her a better time; but let me say to this young lady that as long as she lives she will never find anyone who will love her more deeply than this young fellow. If she goes ahead with the divorce she will regret it until death. I hope she reads this in your paper and sees things before it is too late!” I, too, hope she sees the :tory and replies, for I would like to hear her side. Once I knew an attractive young father whose wife ° left him, taking with her two little children. The father’s grief was very real, for he loved them all, and there were tears in his soft, brown eyes. He, too, tock his chil_dren on outings and they loved him very much. He was extraordinarily kind and attentive to them. Yet the neighbors told me that the young father was charming only when sober; that he was drunk most of the time. When drunk he was a cruel, insulting and impossible person whom his young wife had borne with patiently for a number of years until her plight moved a stronger man to sympathy, and she left to enjoy his protection. This is the other side to one story. The young man in the green ccupe may be blameless, but how can we tell unless we hear from the wife? If she has left her husband for any of the frivolous reasons cited in the story of “The Green Coupe” we may well turn from her in disgust and despair. The baby would be better in the father’s custody. But what if she has just cause? What if the sad young - man has another side to his nature

not visible through his regret?

Would we consign her to a matri- |

monial prison for the rest of her life just because the father is still able to shed tears over his fclly? r JANE JORDAN,

From studies of anemias of va- | rious sorts, we know that ‘the liver |

contains some substance which is absolutely vital in the development of red blood cells and that an extract of the liver may be given to stimulate red blood cell formation. Of special interest also is the relationship of the glands to the vitamins. It has been shown that the adrenal glands are particularly rich in vitamin C; the liver is particularly rich in vitamins A and D. If animals are given a diet that is without vitamins A and B, eventually the thyroid @ gland breaks down. It is established that excess amounts of thyroid gland have a definite relationship to vitamin Bl,

Knowledge Of Cuts Aid To Economy

Check Meat List to Add Variety to Family Menu.

By RUTH CHAMBERS National Livestock and Meat Board How well do you know your meat cuts? Check up on your menus and see if you. are getting the variety into your meals you might have if you extended your cooking repertory to include cuts of meat which are now strangers to your ‘table. A point not to be overlooked is that many of these cuts which may be served in delicious ways are easier on your food budget. You can be thrifty and at the same time give your family a treat by introducing some of these tempting dishes. Roasts and pot roasts, steaks and chops = Ruth Chambers are excellent. And probably you use sausage and ground meats, and have your favorite caserole recipes. Still you have by no means exhausted the list of meat cuts. There are many others, not hard to prepare, with which you might very profitably get acquainted. Salt Pork With Cream Gravy

1 pound salt pork Flour 2 cups milk Salt and pepper : Cut the pork in thin slices and place in cold water. After it has soaked one hour, drain well and dry in a clean cloth. Heat the frying pan very hot. Place % cup on a plate and dip each piece of meat in it. Fry until crisp. Drain off all but 2 tablespons of the fat and stir in 2 tablespoons of flour to that in the pan. Cook two minutes, stirring well, then add the milk slowly. When the gravy is smooth, cook for a minute or two, add salt and pepper if needed. Pour over the meat or serve separately.

Flank Steak, Creole Style ¢

1 large flank steak 1 pound bulk pork sausage 2 cups tomatoes 2 bay leaves 1 onion, sliced Salt and pepper . Have the flank steak scored at market. Shape sausage into a cylinder as long as the flank steak. Roll steak around it and tie with a string. Flace the steak in a baking pan, pour the tomatoes over it, add the bay leaves and finely chopped onion. Cook in a moderate oven (350 degree F.) until the steak is tender, about one and a half hours. To serve, remove the string and slice through meat and sausage. Thicken the tomato sauce and serve with it.

Mushrooms Add Taste

A can of prepared mushroom soup combined with any cream soup or chicken soup adds nutriment as well

as a delicious flavor.
