the family could raid the ice box,
now the problem is slightly differ
ent, as hot food, satisfying but still
simple, is in demand.
Here's a dish that just seems to
' fit the bill: the broiled wienies and
hot potato salad pictured above. Of
course, hot potato salad with wienies
is an old favorite but there's a touch
of something new in the wienies
broiled with cheese and the green
beans around the potato salad to
add a touch of color.
*Broiled Wienies.
Select two to three skinless frank
furters for each person to be served,
two will do nicely for the girls and
women but better count three for
the men and boys. Split the frank
furter and insert a strip of Ameri
can cheese. When almost ready to
serve, pop into the broiler and cook
until cheese melts and browns.

Are you one of those homemakers
who is always looking for one dish
that ran ha mnri
ified and yet
seem to be differ

it's served. I
think baked beans
is one of those
dishes, and be
cause of its
newiy appeal you can serve n onen.
Bean and Sausage Bake.
(Serves 4)
1 small onion, sliced
Vi pound link sausage
1 can baked beans
1 tablespoon pickle relish
1 tablespoon chili sauce
Place onion on bottom ol casse
role and lay sausage on top of on
ion. Bake in a moderate oven IS
minutes, then drain off excess fat.
Combine beans with onion, sausage,
pickle relish and chili sauce. Re
turn to oven for 20 minutes to re
heat.
If you have only eggs, don't ever
despair for they have excellent pos
sibilities as snacks. Try scrambled
eggs with cheese, bacon fried crisp
and brown and crumbled, or broiled
sausages. Omelets made with a
slice of American cheese before
they're folded are menu tempters,
as are omelets made with a tomato
sauce folded over them before serv
ing.

Dark Cellar Stairs
A NEIGHBOR of mine was recent
ly badly hurt by a fall down the
stairs leading from the kitchen to the
cellar. Knowing those stairs, I could
understand her accident, for going
down them was like stepping into a
tunnel. The family had planned to
"do something about it," but the
accident happened before they got
around to it. For full safety, an
electric light should have been put
in the ceiling, although this would
have meant somewhat complicated
wiring. As an alternative, white
paint could have been used?and
plenty of it. In the first place, the
treads of the steps at the top and
bottom could be painted solid white,
while white bands an inch or two
wide could be painted along the
front edges of the remaining treads.
These would have shown the posi
tion of the steps, even in a dim
light. In addition to this, the sides
and the ceiling of the stair even
could also be white. Had this been
the accident would have been pre
vented, and needless to say, the
saving in doctor's bills would have
paid for the improvement many
times over.
Rough Plaster Walls
Textured walls and sand finished
plaster can be very? attractive when
they are new, but are likely to give
trouble later on because of difficulty
in cleaning them. Also, home own
ers may become tired of the effect,
and would prefer to have papered
or smooth plastered walls. The walls
can be smoothed with powdered
whiting, mixed with strong glue size
to a sifT paste of the consistency of
wall plaster. On sand finished walls,
this is applied with a trowel in a
layer only thick enough to cover the
rough finish. The new plaster can
I be smoothed with a trowel or with
a rubber squeegee, such as is used
for window cleaning. Needless to
say, the old finish should be cleaned
as* well as possible with a stiff brush
and a vacuum cleaner, before put
ting on the new coating. A roughly
i textured plaster wall should be gone
over with coarse sandpaper wrapped
around a block of wood, to take off
the highest of the rough points. The
depressions can then be filled with
! the same whiting-and-glue size
i paste, to be applied with a trowel
and given a smooth finish.
wood r looring
A home owner who is planning to
build a game room in his basement
asks about laying a wood floor over
the present concrete floor. One
thing to guard against in this is
damage to the wood floor by damp
ness in the concrete. Any concrete
floor laid on the ground, even over
a bed of cinders, picks up moisture.
A wood floor laid on top is likely to
buckle and eventually to rot. The
necessary waterproofing can be pro
vided by covering the concrete with
, heavy tar paper or building felt,
stuck down with tar or liquid as
phalt. An even better method is to
lay the wood floor on the concrete,
without nails, by the use of an as
phalt cement compound called
"mastic." This provides a water
proofing layer that binds the wood
strips to the concrete as well as to
each other, so that nailing is not
necessary. This method of floor
laying is in common use for such
conditions, as is well understood by ;
floor contractors.
Dark Room
Question: The walls of a living
room are paneled in dark wood; the
ceiling is beamed, with light paper
between. The room faces north
east. Windows are dormers, a little
more than a yard long. The room
is dark. Can you suggest any way
to lighten it?..
Answer: The most obvious way
is to paint the paneling white, or
some light color, and the ceiling
beams as well. Unless the paneling
is very choice wood, the change
should be attractive. If the natural
finish must be retained, the paneling
could be bleached, although this
would be a more tedious job. Wood
bleaches can be had at a good paint
store. Window draperies should be
thin and light in color. Floor cov
ering should be light. Large wall j
? mirrors will also help.
Floor Finish
Question: Our old floors were
sanded 11 months ago, and have
darkened on the parts around rugs
that are exposed. How often should
they be washed and waxed? Will
they darken with frequent washings
and waxings? What can I do to
keep them light?
Answer: Wax is not enough of a
protection, for dirt will work
through and get into the wood. After
cleaning the darkened places, you
should finish them with a seal or with
varnish before waxing; waxed hard
wood floors should not be washed.
Dirt should be taken up with liquid
wax.
Storm Windows
Question: Is there anything new
in the way of storm windows? I
have the usual kind, and putting
them up and taking them down costs
about four dollars.
Answer: Storm windows are now
made with metal rust-proof frames
that are permanently attached to
the outside of window frames. Both
glass and insect screening are pro
vided in frames to fit the openings,
and can be taken out or put in from
inside the room, with'but little ef
fort. Dealers in building materials
should know of them.

Fashion Revives Long Pearl
Necklaces and Gleaming Jet
__ ? By CHERIE NICHOLAS ,
TT MIGHT be aptly said that a
* woman is known by the jewelry
she wears. Certain it is that jew
elry accents have a way of showing
either refinement of taste, or a love
of display. It all depends on wheth
er "you belong to the spectacular
costume-jewelry group or to the
conservative one that holds on to
the tradition of quiet elegance.
To women who have an inherit
ed intuitive sense of dignified glam
our pearls are ever the answer to
their jewelry preferences. This sea
son the style prestige of pearls
has ascended to a new high.
The big news that is adding to the
lure of pearls is the return to favor
of long ropes of pearls with match
ing bracelets and earrings in the
manner of the ensemble shown
above to the left in the illustration.
The fact that in this instance pearls
are worn with a Mack wool knit eve
ning sweater is also important news.
Time was when jewelry worn with
things knitted was taboo. Now it's
the smart thing to do.
Speaking of the new ropes of
pearls, some are unbelievably long
and worn in tiers reaching below
the waistline. With a siren-slim
black satin formal they are the
"last word" in smart jewelry.
Grandmother's pearl choker is
also worn by her smart and style
conscious granddaughter. Centered
in the group illustrated above you
see a modern girl wearing a three
strand matching bracelet and pearl
earclips. The ring is a little gold
bow with a diamond knot.
What has been said of pearls may
be said of jet. The revival of jet
jewelry goes on record as a gesture
of utmost style significance. Jet
bead ensembles worn with winter
white evening sweaters, as pictured
above to the right in the illustration,
have proved especially popular with*
college girls.
Groups of clips (called "scatter
clips") are being featured this sea
son as an alternate with the single
lapel piece. The idea is spreading
like wildfire among those who like
the new and the venturesome. Cen
tered at the top in the group pictured
above is a style-alert "modern"
wearing adorable little bows of three
different sizes, with bow earrings to
match. They are usable also as com
panion clips for square or "sweet
heart" necklines.
Flattering and highly decorative
for a plain dark dress are groups
of small clips like - those worn by
the young woman posing below to
the left in the picture. These rhine
stone birds may also be fastened
together in pairs to make a hand
some brooch and there is all-purpose
jewelry that can be taken apart to
form different pins, clips and vari
ous other items. The earrings be
longing to this ensemble are also of
bird designs. Bird, bow and butter
fly motifs are very much in the
jewelry picture this year.
Amusing themes are worked into
jewelry that "makes conversation"
because of its novelty, for instance,
the lapel pin worn by the young girl
pictured below to the right. On her
handknit tailored jacket, done in
new stitch, she is wearing a lucite
fish with fins of gold plate and
rhinestones.
(Released by Western Newspaper Union.)
Winter-White
The sensation of the present sea
son?winter-white wool I Wear it for
informal dinners and cocktail par
ties with fine costume jewelry of
rhinestones. A beautifully designed
flower pin and a wide, important
bracelet adds glamour to the pic
ture. The movement to wear winter
white dresses under winter furs is
gaining momentum right along.
Tiny white hats are chic, also, for
immediate wear, especially the new
diminutive sailor types with their
wing trimming and a whimsical
veil.
Guest Scoffs
Take your boudoir slippers along
if you want to when you go away to
spend the week-end. But you prob
ably don't need to. Your hostess
may have learned the modern trick
of making "guest scuffs" as they are
called. These are part of the equip
ment of the guest room in many
homes.
These Buttons Snap On
And Are Simple to Use
It is most assuredly a button sea
son. The newest use of large pre
tentious buttons is to ornament as
well as provide fastenings for the
dainty**pastel wool jacket suits so
popular for immediate wear under
fur coats and later to wear without
a wrap on a balmy spring day.
You can get all sorts of buttons.
The newest among them is the but
ton with a snap-on base. You draw
this portion up through the button
hole and then clip to it a handsome
over button that looks more like jew
elry than a mere utilitarian fasten
ing.
Wrap Around
Some new coats have sleeves cut
all in one with the yoke or body
of the garment. And they are
so fashioned as to wrap around to
one side. They concentrate on
quality fabric, and when unfurred,
as most of them are, they call for
a stunning fur muff matched with
a flattering fur hat.
Evening Capes
Capes that have a new look be
cause of the embroidery lavished
on them in the way of yokes or
tuxedo panels down the front are
the "last word" in evening wraps.
They are, for the most part, made
of velvet or fine cloth, and they
may be either floor length or hip
length.
Frothy White
Again we have with us, with more
to follow as spring gets well under
way, the little dark-toned or black
dress that is enlivened with "oodles"
of frothy white at the neckline and
wrists. The new white neckwear is
entrancing. Also pastel accessory
items are coming out in new lingerie
versions.
