Smart Dickeys For Practical Girls
Nothing shows smarter planning than to have a wardrobe of
dickeys. Business girls, school girls—etveryone knows the value
of these fabric-savcirs to make, and time-savers to carle for. Made
of different fabrics and in different styles, they provide many
costume changes for a limited number of suits or sweaters. Make
them in pique or checked ginghams for business, in print or pas
tel crepe for afternoon, in satin or velvet for extra-special dreiss-
up. (Direction leaflets for RUFFLED DICKEY, No. E 170, may be

THAT ORTA HOLD HIM!
Waiters, of course, are not in
a position to snap back at ill-bred
guests but one English headwaiter
once made the perfect retort to
an uncouth customer:
“My position, sir,” he said, “does
not allow me to argue with you;
but if it ever came to a choice of
weapons, I would choose gram
mar.’'
MRS. RALEIGH T. WAL-
DROP, above, was before her

Your Guide To
Daily Liying
I From Washinffton Boreaii
NEITHER FISH NOR EGGS will
be plentiful during the winter
months. Both have had to do much
filling in for pork and beef that
the carry-over from the flush sea*
sons is less than last year’s. Fish
will be particularly scarce becaiise
so much was eaten fresh that less
could be frozen for later use and
canned fish is in great demand by
the military.
A BROADER-BREASTED chick
en which grows faster is now on
the way. Specialists who are help
ing develop the wonder bird say
the extra white meat will by ho
means cut down on the chicken’s
ability to produce eggs. In fact,
the new hen may be able to lay
more eggs than ever.
CHRISTMAS OVERSEAS.—Un
less you know exactly where your
soldier is and what it’s like there,
choose one of the foolproof gifts.
Repeated surveys show, for in
stance, that almost any member
of the armed forces is happy to
get: snapshots of family and
friends, small folding picture
frames, billfolds, war bonds and
stamps, automatic pencils and
fountain pens, weather-proofed
vmst watches, stationery, hoiuie-
town newspapers, books, overseas
editions of magazines, food delica
cies properly packaged.
RICE NEWS.—^A new rice which
has a nutty flavor and fragrance
similar to the varieties grown in
India and Iraq has been develoiped
for growth in the United States.
TIME SAVERS
NO TIPPING OVER—A small
wooden box, enameled the color of
my other containers, now holds
the tall, narrow, flavoring extract
bottles that were always tipping
over. It is convenient to have the
flavorings always together and
saves time when baking.
BAKING TIP—If the oven is
not hot enough for the baking
powder biscuits, place the pans
containing them on the back of
the stove. When the oven is ready,
they will have risen considerably.
Biscuits made this way are much
better.
FRESHE^R SANDWICHES—
Sandwiches will keep fresh twice
as long if after wrapping them
you seal the edges of the wax pa
per with a hot iron.
CLEAN COFFEE POT—It is
not necessary to scour the inside of
the aluminum coffee pot to re
move stains. Boil a mixture of
apple parings and core with some
water in it a few minutes. The re
sult will be a sweet and clean
smelling pot.
EASY BUTTONHOLES—Befbr*
making buttonholes in thin mate
rial, rub a little library paste on
the wrong side of the material and
allow to dry.
QUICK SETTING GELATINB-
If pressed for time, dissolve one
package of gelatine in one cup of
hot water, then add one level cup
of chopped ice and water. The
setting of the gelatine will be
greatly hastened.
NO DOOR SLAMMING—Loop
two old rubber jar rings together
and slip one over the door knob
and the other over the knob on
the other side.
