Tired Feeling Can Be Lifted By Crisp Salad
Herbs That Come in Spring Too Often Neglected; Men Like ’Em,
By MRS. GAYNOR MADDOX The spring salad is the most sprightly of tonics. But first you need a bowl—a large one in which pieces of lettuce and romaine, chicory and endive, watercress and parsley can be tossed and
topped with French dressing. Break these crisp greens into mouthsize pieces and use as many different kinds as your market offers. Incidentally, it isn’t true that
Herbs are many things, some familiar, some unkown to the average American cook. Parsley is an herb, so are the tender leaves of celery which are so often thrown away. Dandelion greens are herbs, so is sour grass, called sorrel.
Familiar Herbs Neglected
A few of the tiny leaves of spinach chopped, serve as herbs in your spring salad. So do Mustard leaves, fresh mint and chives are called herbs too. All these are familiar, but far.too much neglected by salad mrakers. Chopped, put into the bowl of other greens, they add zest. And don’t forget the needed brightness of a chopped or finely sliced scallion or two, or the smooth and harmonizing blessing of new garlic rubbed about the bowl before the greens go in. Add dressing just before serving. A French dressing made of oil and lemon juice or vinegar (either the cider or wine variety) plus spices, is the one dressing fit to associate with such delicate food.

Mesdames Shirley, Mason, Rieman, Sturm and Wild Named.
Mrs. George L. Clark will head the Indianapolis Council of ParentTeacher Associations for the ensuing year. Other officers were named yesterday at an afternoon meeting
{at Caleb Mills Hall.
New executives are Mrs. William R.- Shirley, first vice president; Mrs. Robert L. Mason, second vice president; Mrs. Frank L. Rieman, treasurer; Mrs. Richard J. Sturm, recording secretary, and Mrs. Robert S. Wild, corresponding secretary. Constructive youth ‘organizations and the P.-T. A. were named by Dr. Maria Leonard, dean of Women at the Universiay of Illinois, as the means of a “new bill of rights for youth” in her talk following a dinner. She called upon the association members to aid youth which is finding it “increasingly hard to grow up today, to come of age economically, emotionally, morally and spiritual1 ”
“With America leading the world’s list in broken homes—one divorce out of every five marriages—no small wonder is it that J. Edgar Hoover finds that more than 700,000 boys and girls go down to crime annually before they come to the voting age,” she said. “This in turn, causes Uncle Sam to turn his bookkeeping upside down and to spend 15 billion dol{lars for crime, and only three billion | for education. If, as Mr, Hoover believes, education is the way out, it looks as if America is sunk already, or going backward instead of forward.” “America must use her efforts to reinforce youth organizations such

“With the home and schoal coms bined in the life of the child, they are invincible for good,” she said. “The P.-T.
