DEAR JANE JORDAN—I am a girl of 23 and I have been married to a man of 27 for five years, We lived together for the first five months of our marriage and then he went to another state for over a year. When he came back he came to see me but he doesn’t seem to want to live with me. I love him very much and he says he loves me. H drinks and gambles and runs around a lot. He said if I worked for four months more we would get together. I want to live with him but he won't let me. What
is your advice? DISGUSTED
Answer—If after five years of marriage you only lived. with your husband for five months I should think that your chances of founding @ happy home together were rather slim. Obviously your husband doesn’t want the responsibility of a home and doesn’t want to settle down. As it is he has the advantage of being married, a wife whom he can see when he feels in the mood. You can’t force the man to live with you and even if you could do you think he would make a good husband? Actually you wouldn't get along with him as well as you do now. You would expect more than he is willing to give. Isn't this true? ; 2 #8

Answer — That depends upon whether you have settled the basic conflict between you or not. I don’t know what you quarreled about. The only thing you mentioned is that he went with other girls.

NUTRITION KNOWLEDGE 1S AN IMPORTANT HOME FRONT WEAPON
A Weekly Series of Articles on the Proper Feeding of Your Family Presented by the Indianapolis Chapter of the American Red Cross and the Marion County Office of Civilian Defense.
WAR COMES TO EVERY KITCHEN
Food is a necessity. If much is needed for war, uses, what is left must be divided among those at home so that every one will get enough, and nobody will get more than his share. This is what rationing of food means. It means that no one will eat his neighbor's share. It means that the homemaker will not have to compete with others in order to feed her family. No thoughtless person will be permitted to buy more than he can use, and let it spoil. The rationing of sugar has brought hoarded supplies in to use. No one is suffering for sugar. Rationing of coffee provided enough coffee for every one, perhaps not as much as in peace time, but no one is without.
THE POINT SYSTEM
The point system of rationing is a method by which foods with about the same nutritive values are grouped and rationed by groups instead. of as separate items. One food in a group can replace another in the same group. When canned fruits and vegetables are grouped together: There is a larger supply. Every one gets enough to be useful. Every one can choose what he likes within the group. He may spend his points for more or less, as he likes.
HOW IT WORKS
Let’s take two families for example. Mr. and Mrs. A have 96 points together for canned fruits and vegetables. This includes frozen and dried fruits and vegetables. not need a diet high in calories, but they are not very hungry, $ their food must be chosen with care. They could have 24 cans of grapefruit juice for the first month, if they had no other canned fruits or vegetables. Or 12 cans of green beans. Of course they do not want such a silly diet. Mr. A likes canned peas. Mrs. A knows that canned tomatoes and peaches are valuable in the diet. She plans t6 have some of what they like and should have, and fill in with what is abundant. If she has: 2 cans of peas ....32 points 2 cans tomatoes ..............28 points 2 cans peaches she will have used 80 points for only 6 meals. But there are 30 dinners in a month, and she will be able to get fresh fruits and vegetables for only about half. She must plan more wisely. She learns that canned apple sauce has no point value and frozen peas are 4 points; she revises her plan. ...16 points
2 cans peaches . .20 points 4 cans spinach .....ec00000....24 points 2 cans tomatoes renin points 4 cans apple sauce 0 points She now has more than half her supply for 88 points, with 8 points left over for grapefruit juice for breakfast or for dried beans or peas. Mrs. B has three children, all with good appetites. Mr. B does heavy work. They need high calorie diets, which means high vitamin
and minerals, too. Ii takes two cans of a fruit
or vegetable or a large can to make a meal. They like all good food. Mrs. B has 240 points to: spend for canned fruits and A} Yosciables She canned tomatoes and last summer,. She does not feel she can

Next month may be different. If peas, being high in points, are not used much, spinach, being low, is used more. Canned apple sauce becomes scarce and canned peas more plentiful The new notices might read: : srveens 8 points tOMALOES + .vvviisrsenvsnesens 16 points Spinach. .......... sensneines es 8. points dried prunes «.... 0 points Mrs. A and Mrs. B watch the notices in the newspapers and in the grocery stores and plan with the, family needs and likes fitted into the supplies available. The government will use the point value to encourage them to buy whatever is plentiful and not to buy what is scarce. Meat rationing works the same way. Mr. and Mrs. A have 32 points per week. The points are good for the whole month. Suppose the first week steaks are 8 points a pound, butter 8, frankfurters 5, heart 3, hamburger 6. Mrs. A has seven dinners to plan. She will need % pound of butter, 4 points; 1 pound lard or oil, 6 points.
For her 22 remaining points she might have: 1% pounds steak 4 frankfurters 12 1b. hamburger
12 points. .1 meal 3 points. .1 meal
They do
3 points. .2 meals (for chili) Fo : 1 heart 4 points. .2 meals This will leave one meal for which she carf use hash or minced meat on toast or eggs. Next week she plans to have a soup bone— points—and make stock, which will provide: oup three times, ‘a chicken, no point value, will ’ make two meals, and a cheese souffle one night will allow her to save points for a roast the fol lowing week. ‘ Mrs. B's problem is easier. She has 80 meat points a week. Her family permits a wider choice. They use each week: . 1%gpounds butter - + eves .12 points 2 pounds lard or oil ..........12 points 1 pound bacon +eesss 8 points This leaves 48 points: 1 spareribs and kraut points 1 beef stew and dumplings.. gi PO ! 1 spaghetti with meat sauce... 5 points 1 baked beans with salt pork. . 2 points 1 beef liver (2 pounds) ....... 8 points 1 fish 1 dried beef gravy Next week she will plan: macaroni and cheese points dried lima beans with salt pork 2 points chicken and noodles kidney stew
-and she, too, will be able to save points toward
a roast for her family. Wise planning is the way to make it economical and nutritious. : The following table* will give a general out--line of good diets for a family according to the amount spent for foods, showing how the proportion of low cost proteins and calories rises as the amount spent decreases. : Tconomica
