Sunrose Color Window Shades New Note In Fall Decoration->! By Beffina J. Vigleze If your rooms have ever looked dark and dull on gray fall and winter days, we’d suggest you look into the very new est and smartest color in window shades. It’s called Sunrose. Sunrose brings the sunshine indoors! It has a rosy-golden glow and when hung at your windows actually seems to brighten the rooms. We’ve seen these new cloth shades and we approve of them thoroughly, for one thing they’re perfect for ensembling the new coral tones the decorators tell us will be so smart for fall and winter draperies, upholstery, wall paper and bod coverings. If you are still using tones of blue in your winter draperies, or gold, think how perfectly stunning Sunrose window shades would harmonize with them. The decorators and the department store people tell us the clever thing to do nowadays is to have two sets of cloth window shades! One tone for summer to soften light—another tone for winter to strengthen light. It’s an intelligent idea don’t you think? Certainly you’ll get FASHIONS FAVOR METALS Fashions influenced by the styles of the early 1900 s combine with the marked • trend toward sumptuous, luxurious styles for afternoon, dinner and evening wear to create more high style interest in metal fabrics than there has been for some years. Metal fabric cloths will be used in a wide variety of apparel and accessories. They are styled for trimmings, blouses, millinery and little jackets as well as for gowns and wraps. Types for Millinery, Extra Jackets STRIPES in gypsy colors often com bining two colors of metal, such as scold and silver, and two or three bright plain colors like red, royal and emerald on dark sheer ground are being taken for milli nery. Metals for little extra jackets are tremendously diversified. They range from stiff upholstery brocades heavily shot with metal (either large or small patterns) to fringed novelties, cire, lac quer, and sheet metal effects. A Metal Year in Wrap Fabrics Upholstery brocades are big items. De signs are influenced by the classic bro cades of the 1900s —rich Persian pattem ings, the rich richly-toned wines, royal blues and dark greens of the Victorian period, ornamental banded effects, thick satins with the rococo floral and leaf patterns associated with ecclesiastical brocades. Stiff ansi Soft Dress Metals Dress metals for fall are both stiff and soft. The stiff ones are variations of upholstery brocades in many instances, gold embroidered taffetas and metal-shot taffetas. Soft metals have a beautiful clinging drape made on crepe, satin, or silk sheer bases. Tiny classical brocade patterns have been revived rather strongly and while some prints are * shown, plain gold or silver patterning is preferred. One of the most important dress metals of the season is a slightly crinkled, smooth-back sheet metal which is offered in a very large range of colors with blues stressed. ■■ Chocolate Beer Cake a Novel and Delicious Treat Home baking has become a vanishing art since commercial bakeries have done their bit in emancipating the housewife from long hours in the kitchen, but oc casionally a new recipe comes along that just impels her to return to the oven and provides a treat for either the family or a little social gathering. Such a recipe was introduced recently in New York’s famous Waldorf-Astoria when guests at a luncheon smacked their lips over a dessert identified on the menu as chocolate beer cake. It was beer, the bulwark of moderation, used an an in gredient, that gave the cake its piquant flavor. The cake made such a hit that news of its introduction spread and eventually Tk* Chocolate Bra Ukt and a Pitcher Filled %uh One of lt« ln«redieM MyhL'yEP-jjllSlllM if bote Courtesy el Biker* Weekly) ree ee Jfff £££.*££* * 3/ f"f'M £ - M"M MltiS 'S'&'' I ’ J < 4 *•■>* *f »Tg™ * • ft fl > o , -’ '****& £ 5' r:!

He liked it so well that he suggested its in troduction in bakeries on a commercial scale, as a treat, for their customers. “The cake itself is a fluffy, well-colored chocolate cake with a pleasing flavor that will keep one guessing—for there is just enough difference from the conventional chocolate flavor to make it interesting,” read a recent issue of the magazine. “One might think that chocolate and beer are not compatible, but just try it and see if you don’t like it.” Here is the recipe > Eggs, 8 Flour, l-K lbs. double the wear out of your shades, and your home will take on a fresh new •decorative look each season. One word of caution —do be sure to ask for cloth window shades. They will give you the most wear, in fact years of wear, and they won’t crinkle from steam, rain, snow, or sleet. If you buy a really ex cellent quality cloth shade you’ll be able to clean it with a sponge, lukewarm water and a mild soap. Do look at these new Sunrose window shades, your local window shade shop will have them, or a sample of the color from which you can order. We're so pleased with the fresh sunnyness of the tone that we’re putting them up at the windows of every room in our house. High praise indeed for a fuss budget like ourself!
