But ?•», -v ' v ' 1 '' ' >so. an American artist in desr; ■ y las gone the Hindus one better turned their striped scarves into sandals and step-in shoes of lovely colors. "The scarves come from Patna, the Holy City of Hindus on the Canges,” Mr. Del.iso explains. "The industry of silk weaving and spinning dates back several centuries B. C. and the art has been handed down from generation to generation. The skilled weav ers create intricate patterns which are pro duced by dyeing the yarns according to given design and then weaving them which makes the fabrics reversible.” This enthusiast suggests that beside san dals and other types of summer footwear made from these scarves, the smart woman use draped turbans and bags to match made of similar scarves. In the above sketch, that lovely debutante is wearing sandals in one of Mr. DeLiso’s scarf creations, and also a turban .collar and bag in matching fabric.

I’ll give on this page his com plete directions for make-up. such as he uses on beautiful women who make Hollywood such an amazing and delightful place. Wash your face with pure soap and water alter, not before, using your cleans ing cream. Spend at least 15 minutes in making up. It is really better to go without make-up than to apply it hurriedly, he believes. potatoes. Your Independence Day dinner will be a symphony in pastel pink, green, amber and cream. Served with cool refreshing beer, a favor- 3 <3 (K m Hair styles that are soft and simple are far more flattering and usually far more be coming than the sophisticated, plastic types. And certainly they ar far easier to care for. Don t shave your .yehrows or make them into thin lines. The brows are placed above the eyes by nature in order to shelter them from strong overhead light. • Don t apply fresh make-up over that which was applied hours earlier. It's a wise rule to remove your entire make-up once a day. Wally grew very insistent when he gave this rule—-the sole purpose of cosmetics is to define a woman s featurei and to express her true personality. It is itist as much a fault to wear too little make-up as it is to wear too much. ite drink of our Colonial forefithers, a truly safe anil sane Fourth is enjoyed »here this custom is observed. Chef Gian arlo Vala of the ol<l Outpost Inn. Ridgefield. ( on necticut. gives us his interpretation of this holiday dinner: An eight pound salmon; two carrots: salt and pepper; tour ounces vinegar: celery; two lemons sliced; three onions sliced and some small Hayleaf. Split the fish, clean and wash it care fully. I’lace it in a long, narrow pan, tust covered with cold water. Add to the water the carrots, celery, hayleaf lemons, onion, vinegar, salt and pepper. Boil from fifteen to twenty minutes, and allow the fish to cool in the water. Remove the fish from the water and cover it with Sauce Froide, made as follows: 6 gelatin leaves; I quart of the fish broth in which the fish has been cooled: 5 ounces melted butter; 6 ounces flour and I cup Cream. Cook the fish broth, butter and flour for five minutes. Then add the g< lann, strain and cool, and add the cream lust before it has cooled. When the mixture has stiffened, spread it over the salmon in three coats, allowing it to cool in between The design is put on later with bits of fresh vegetable and hard boiled egg lust as tasty with this fish is merely the butter and egg sauce on the side, should you not care to fro§i your fish as suggested above.
