YOU NEED VITAMINS .'. . everyone needs them to build a healthy body ‘and to keep fit and strong. The most natural way to get vitaminsij _ is by eating the right kind of food—eating enough of it and eating
© it regularly.
So points out the U. S. department of guage here is some information issued by
need vitamins, how we need vita- _ mins, how we get them from various foods, and what may take place dn our bodies if we do not get ° enough of them. The farm is the greatest vitamin _ factory on, earth. It produces good food from which we get vitamins in their natural form. A farm’s vitamin assembly line runs from the ground up to the finished products . that: reach our tables. For instance, seeds are rich in _ certain vitamins. Green growing plants produce and hold vitamins or vitamin materials that we get when we eat fruits, vegetables and grains. * For our health’s sake it is well to be well acquainted with these vitamins and know what they can .do for us. Each has its own value; we need them all to help our bodies grow or to keep them in good con"dition. Very small amounts of vita- « mins handle big jobs.

This vitamin helps nerves and digestion and also makes for a healthy skin. In addition, pellagra can be prevented by eating enough foods having B vitamin content—especially niacin. Still another B vitamin is riboflavin, which is needed for health and normal growth.

—help them to grow normally. Vitamin D is the .two-way vitamin —you can get it from sunshine as well as from foods. “This vitamin helps bones and teeth grow strong and straight—that is why it is so necessary for children to get a regular supply of it. » 2 »
How to Get Them
HUMAN BEINGS, as well as cows, chickens and fish, manufacture vitamin A in their bodies. You can store it in your body for future use, too—and it-is best to get a good supply every day so you have a “reserve” to draw on should you need it. Bright colors—yellow, green, orange, sometimes red—are often signals of vitamin A value which you can get by eating ripe yellow and green vegetables and some red ones, such as tomatoes. You also- get it from liver, butter and eggs. - B vitamins come in many foods. Some of these foods contain only one or two ef the B group—others have more. Among those having thiamine, niacin and riboflavin are:
mutton, liver, cabbage, collards, cowpeas, kale, mustard greens, peanuts, dried or green peas, spinach, soybeans, tomatoes and” turnip greens. Vitamin C is found in citrus fruits and several other fruits, tomatoes, kidney, liver and many vegetables. Canned tomatoes and citrus fruits have about as much vitamin C as fresh ones—so you can keep it on the shelves, too. You cannot store large amounts of vitamin C in your body so you have to get a supply every day. When sunlight meets the skin directly, vitamin PD is formed. And you can get this vitamin from several foods, such as butter, cream, whole eggs and egg yolks, whole milk, some fish and fish-liver oils. Livers of halibut, perch and shark are some foods which have particularly rich supplies of this vita-

Rayon and Rayon-Cotton Blends Make Their Appearances; Vivid Colors Introduced
By MARGUERITE YOUNG Times Special Writer
NEW. YORK, Aug. 12.—Brides’ suits . short jackets, even a bolero suit here and there .
knitted suits
. .. and ever the
well bred, long-lined classic suit standing pat on that wild deuce of
style, beautiful fabric.
They will be more fashionable this fall and winter than ever before. There's an amazing quantity of fine all-wool material in suits
which are now being completed by designers and manufacturers
just dyed it in new colors. And that means COLORS . . . brunet blue, vibrant but soft, rather like the old delft, pure purple and every hue the plum ever shows, paprika and rosy reds, black, gray; every conceivabl€ brown, beige, jauve. The makers of New York creations are stressing these all-vir-gin-woals with early retail buyers, explaining they cangot tell whether re-cuttings will be available. But they make no apology for wool mixtures either, nor for all-rayon and rayon-cotton mix-" tures. All are doing a job, in styling and in warmth, which raises quite a question about the future of each in American post-war fashion. For instance there’s an allrayon flannel, gray flecked, that defies a practiced eye's identification as anything but finest wool, made into a yoked dressmaker suit with 25-inch jacket banded in red with gray wool yarn braiding.
* The Bride's Suit
Half a dozen better houses and some budget ones have the bride’s suit. It is trimmed with a little fur, usually, especially Persian lamb or beaver collar. Newest looking have faintly flared : boxy jackets. The short-jacket suit, height of fashion just now, has an infinite variety of pert new details, such as a perfectly smooth back, frankly silly front pockets which flare into a peplum full of wit . . . such as waistcoat jackets, ‘piquant especially in stripes . . . such as rounded raglan sleeves and un-pressed-pleat peplums in Clare McCardell’s. ingenue “sissy” suits of tweed . , . such as unpressed inverted pleats in front-full skirts of some of the most outstanding New York creations. This short-jacket is a fashion set-up for dinner-time formalities. Many of them glitter . . as a black jersey front-full skirt and rather Victorian jacket with nipped waist and rounded<hip peplum, ' two front seams of the

Uncle Sam requires that they be labeled as to wool content. As every woman knows but too often forgets, there are price and wear and looks virtues in all, but they do have to be appreciated for their own virtues and not for some other fabrics, especially when they go to the cleaners.

DEAR JANE JORDAN-—I am a girl of 17. My mother and I cannot get along at all. I do the work
washing and ironing. The reason we cannot .get along is that mother doesn’t want me to go and visit anyone. y If she does let me go, she thinks my friends should come and see me just as often or more. Then when I come back she always has something smart to say about my friends and we get into: a fuss. After the quarreling is over then she says I sass her but that is the only time I do. I cannot have any fun in the evenings because of this. Could you help me? J DAUGHTER.
Answer—It is too bad that I cannot hear your mother’s side of the question but she cannot speak up and defend herself. Perhaps she thinks you go too often and may wear out your welcome. She feels some anxiety when your friends do not come to your house as often as you go to their's. In that case get your friends to cooperate with you by coming around a little oftener, by being nice to your mother and letting her see that you are welcome at their homes. I do not know whether her criticism of your friends is just or unjust. All ‘I know is that they make you mad. If is quite natural for you to ‘get mad when your friends are criticized. A 17-year-old girl wants to choose her own friends. Usually she will take suggestions from her mother if they are sympathetically made. What she detests is harsh criticism which simply tears people down for no reason. Quarreling won’t help solve the problem although after both of you let off steam you may feel more kindly toward each other. A good storm helps to clear. the atmosphere but. constant bickering is exhausting. _.Try doing nice things for your mother, showing her a little attention and interesting yourself in her problems. Perhaps it will soften her a little and influence her not to be quite so striet in her ideas about your friendships. No young girl can be happy without friends her own age and she shouldn't have to fight so hard for this privilege.
