In the modern home the kitchen
is small, and is considered and treat
ed as a workshop. There are many
old homes with the equipment placed
at the four sides of the walls, MAX
ing miles of extra walking in the pre-
paration of meals, which could be
very easily re-grouped to make the
work lighter. In bulletin No. co.,
published by the United States De-
partment of Agriculture, there are
several illustrations of old kitchens
re-arranged.
High temperature has tendency
to dissolve and shrink wool fiber
therefore the water in which wooden
articles are both washed and rinsed
should be warm enough only for the
hand to be borne comfortably in.

tray. The first cost of this is rather
large, but the housewife might af-

One-piece FrOcks

Although many cling to the tai
lored suit with its contrasting
blouse. even in the warmest weather,
the one-pieee dress is becoming more
and more of a favorite. One of the
most attractive of simple serges
noticed recently, was made Of two
straight widths, belted in loosely
with a belt of the material embroid-
cred in a dark red soutache. The
armholes were cut out deeply and
bound. With this frock was worn a
white Georgette underblouse with
loose flowing sleeves, the lower edges
bound with rose color; the wide col
lar was also bound with the rose. 1t
was a charming little model because
of it's simplicity, and very youthful
in it's straight lines.
The heavy linens, too, are effect
i've for street wear. Ivory white,
French blue, the soft pale grays ard
cool looking greens are among the
favored shades in these linens. Many
of them are cut along the straight
lines of the serges, being pleated Of
ten on to a shoulder yoke, and belt
ed in loosely with a belt or sash OF
the same material as the frock. An

OF her age

An elderly woman with a quantity
of soft white hair, sitting nearby,
wore a soft gray faille gown, with a
large sailor-shaped hat of black hat
ters' plush. Hatters' plush, it is
predicted, will be one of the popular
materials for fall and winter hats.
Net, in black and white, composed
many of the dresses and there were
also a goodly number of delicately
colored organizes.
Sports suits, too, are often worn at
the luncheon hour; that is, the soft,
glove-like coats in the favored bright
cOlors, combined with skirts of pom
gee in the natural shade, or with
white or the popular stripes, in
vivid combinations. The .daintiest of
blouses are worn under these coats,
of a pastel colored Georgette, batiste
or a handkerchief linen.
Popularity of GeOrgette Frocks
The white Russian frock of Geor-
gette, with perhaps touch of con-
| trasting color on cuffs or collar, is
one of the favored designs for after
noon and evening wear in the city.
| Georgette is delightfully."- cool and
graceful and lends itself particularly
we'll to the seasons styles, both for
daytime and for evening wear. 1t
is one of the sheer materials which
really washes and wears very we'll,
making it practical for the modish
transparent sleeve, the costume
blouse and the dance dress.
For dance dresses, the printed
Georgettes are youthful and pretty;
some of these have printed borders,
and plain white or colored grounds,
and then again the softly tinted rose
or conventionalized design is scat
tered over the material, on a ground
of white, or stripes. 1t is most eff
fective and satisfactory for many
purposes.
