Color Choice In
Homes Not Always
An Easy Selection
A good choice of colors can go a
long way toward making your home
extra attractive. Combining colors
in your home isn’t always an easy
task.
If you know a few simple rules
and work from a color scheme, you
can avoid mistakes.
Printed draperies can be the
starting point for your color plan,
aays University of Illinois home
furnishings expert Ellen Hansen.
She suggests that you choose the
dominant color in the draperies,
and use it for the main color in
your room. For instance, if green is
used most in the draperies, use the
same color for your walls. The oth
er colors can ibe used on "Uphol
stered pieces and accessories.
Miss Hansen goes on to say that
a framed picture or a lovely vase
may also suggest a color scheme.
Or you may choose a scheme sug
gested in a magazine.
She adds that while some home
makers choose a lovely color for
their floor covering, she thinks that
in the long run a neutral shade
proves to be more practical. And it
can be attractive too. As she points
out, you may tire of the colors in
your room and want to change
them. If your rug is a neutral
shade, you can use it in your new
scheme of colors.

Glasses Frames
Should Be Chosen
With Great Care
Your complexion is one of the
first things to consider in choosing
the color of the frames for eye
glasses. Shape and proportion come
next, according to beauty experts.
They suggest that before you try
frames for size you hold colors to
your face to see which does the
most for your skin.
If your budget permits you to
get two pairs, so much the better.
Try colors both in daylight and un
der artificial light. Then have one
made up for day and one for eve
ning wear.
Blondes look best in frames of
blue, brown and pastel shades. Bru
nettes wear deep reds, dark blues
and other definite colors well. And
redheads look most glamorous in
green. And there are plaid, tweeds
and other colorful combinations
with a gay, youthful look.
According to the beauty experts,
brown is a universally popular and
becoming color — but be sure it’s
right for your skin. If you tend to
be sallow, forget it. Instead, choose
frames in a clear, light shade of
blue. Green is effective with pale,
slightly freckled skin of redheads.
And an auburn beauty can wear
vivid green for day, and turquoise
at night.
Remember that your eyeglasses
should be slightly wider than your
face. Too-narrow eyeglasses give a
pinched look, and make eyes seem
close together. Eyeglasses should
follow the line of your brows and
not completely cover them for best
effect.
Incidentally, brows need special
accent or the strong line of the
glasses will so dominate the face,
people will forget you have brows.
After you’ve plucked stray hairs,
darken your brows into smooth,
even arches with an eyebrow pen
cil. Avoid touching the pensil to
the skin unless your brows have
blank spaces between them. Use
feather strokes of the pencil, then
with your little finger blend and
soften the pencil strokes.
Now that you’ve chosen frames
as a picture for your eyes, remem
ber that lenses have a tendency to
dim the picture unless you empha
size it. So it’s a wise idea to accent
the color of your eyes with the
faintest touch of shadow on the
lids, starting at the center and fad
ing upward and outward toward
corners.

Making Most Of
Appearance Can
Be Accomplished
Every girl and woman wants to
make the most of her appearance,
and usually make a special effort
to do so. Makeup is wisely chosen
and applied with care. Hair is kept
at its shining best by frequent—
and often special—shampoos. And
it is cut and set in a becoming coif
fure. Plenty of attention is given to
clothes and accessories, too — but
what about figures?
Some women, of course, are
blessed with nearly perfect figures.
But—unfortunately — the majority
have figure faults of one kind or
another. Designers and beauty ex
perts agree that six of the most
common problem figures are the
egg type, the hippy type, the half
pint, the beanpole, the roly-poly
and the pouter-pigeon type.
Learn your figure faults — and
then keep them to yourself. There’s
no law against fooling all of the
people all of the time with the right
clothes. Use the proper design to
whittle your figure down or build
it up. If you’re on the short and—
let’s face it — plump side, you
won’t look twice at a big splashy
print with balloon sleeves and
shirred waist. But if you’re six feet
tall and weigh only 100 pounds or
so, it’s just the thing for you.
You’ll buy it right away and avoid
the slim-skirted dress in a vertical
stripe.
These “camouflaging” clothes
are fine to wear while you’re try
ing to whittle down—or build up—
your figure faults. But don’t skip
doing the proper exercises and eat
ing the right foods in favor of this
easy way out.

We all are looking for quick and
easy party fare that tastes and looks
fancy. Judy Canova, that Princess
of Performers, star of screen, radio
and television, gave me a wonder
ful recipe for a party dip that she
promises will make a hit with every
guest.
Judys’ Cuban
Party Spread or Dip
1 can undiluted black bean
soup
1 medium onion finely grated
1 pkg. cream cheese
3 tbls. sweet pickle relish
Mix all ingredients together
thoroughly. Spread on rye bread
cut paper thin. When used for a
dip thin mixture with milk until
dipping consistency. It’s mighty
good, and different, too.
I have another quick and easy
for you to use when company
comes.
Rolls Piquante
8 brown-and-serve rolls
3 tbls. chopped stu'fed olives
1-4 cup chopped chives
(or 1-8 tsp. onion salt)
1-3 cup cottage cheese
3 tsp. chili sauce
Mix cottage cheese with olives,
chives and chili sauce. Cut two
diagonal gashes on top of rolls.
Fill with the cheese mixture.
Bake in hot (450) degree oven
until rolls are done. These will
spark the plainest meal. Better
plan to have plenty.
