MISS STERLING IS HONORED AT

Household Hints

Wash the comfortables when they are not needed on the beds The easiest way is to let the sun and rain do it for you. If spread on clean grass through a fairly long rain and dried without taking up, the coIors will run less and they will have a clean, fresh odor. Braided rugs can be washed the same way.
 Spinach loses both color and flavor if cooked in too much water The amount of water that adheres to it from washing is enough to steam it tender. There should be just enough waner to keep it from scorching.
 When you cook vegetables such as peas, potatoes, coulifower, etc, put in a foundation for a light nourishfng soup. To the vegetable liquor add 2 tablespoons of butter, put into sauce pan, and when it bubbles add If cup of flour, cups milk and the liquor; desired. Let boil and serve
 The white of one egg added to a bottle of cream and beaten together will make a much larger quantity and of nice consistency to spread.
 When beating the white of an egg a tablespoon of cold water added will make twice the quantity.
 When frosting a cake a little corn starch sprinkled over the cake will prevent the frosting from running over the edges.

ETIQUETTE

If one person gives a picnic he must provide every thing, the modes of conveyance to the place selected, the refreshments, entertainment, etc., but if several join in this the labor and expense should be equally divid- ed.
 It is customary for the. relatives and friends of the bride and groom to send presents to the former before the wedding day. A card of the do- nor should accompany the gift. Pre- sents are usually shown at the we'd ding reception Sometimes the cards of the donors are left attached to the presents, but it is rapidly becoming the fashion to take them off. The bride should never neglect to write note of thanks, or to personally thank the friends who have kindly remem- bered her through their gifts.
 Their Names-"If a husband signs his name J. Jones Smith, would it be correct for his wife to use any other form of the name on her cards. as. for instance, Mrs. Jonathan J. Smith ?" (Answer.) No. A married woman should have her husbands S name on her card in exactly the same form in which, he uses it, except that it is preceded in her case by Mrs"

WOMEN FAVOR
 CITY JOBS FOR
 THE VETERANS
Express Sentiment for Re turned Veterans Who Are
 Out of Employment.
MANY QUALIFIED
 FOR POSITIONS
Mrs. Howard Simpson Praises Character and
 Ability of Veterans.

Several leading women of the city
 active in both the social welfare and
 the betterment of conditions in the
 ing to the filling of vacancies now ex-
 isting in the police and fire depart
 ments, by veterans now out of ern-
 p1oyment II is the belief of the ma
 jority of the women that all soldiers and sailors now searching for jobs bs
 given preference in the filling of such
 vacancies.
 Mrs. H. w Fleck, leader of the
 Minute Women said, If the soldier
 has left his position on this side and
 gone to fight for our country on the
 other side, returns, and if out of
 work he surely should be given first
 preference on either the police or fire department"
 T believe that if returned soldiers
 apply to be policemen and have the
 necessary physical and moral fitness
 and are of the required age, they
 should certainly be placed when va cancies occur" said Mrs. Hincks.
 Probably no other woman in
 Bridgeport has become more affili- ated with the average standard of the
 returned soldier than Mrs. Howard Simpson. T think this would be an elegant way to take care of the men and I heartily approve of the idea. " Mrs. Simpson said no finer specimen of boys could be found than some Of the returned soldiers and sailors who have visited the Soldiers and Sailors Club of which organization Mrs. Simpson is president.
 Mrs. E. N. Sperry also of the Sol diers' and SaiIops' Club approves of the idea and believes it would bring many efficient men to the force
 Mrs. M. H. Ford, one of Bridge ports most active society women stated 1t is her opinion the returned
 soldier or sailor should be given the preference if he Is physically, and mentally fit and is in every way as well prepared for the position as the | civilian applicant. In speaking Of l soldiers and sailors, Mrs. Ford means ] those who have seen overseas service Much effort is being put forward 1 to find jobs for the boys in the fac tories yet these jobs in the Fire | and Police Department are still open I There are many of Bridgeport's sol I dier sons capable of holding the jobs fill the vacancies on the city forces. In one accord public opinion is, as Mrs. F. F. GranisS asserted, The boys deserve more consideration than we can ever give them"

MARKED CHANGE IN FUR MARKET
 SINCE TIE WAR
Great Demand For Material Keeps Manufacturers
 Busy.

Since tho opening days of the re- cent World War. customs in good many lines have undergone marked changes. In no direction has this been more noticeable than in furs Through custom furs were worn only in the late fall and winter months and their use in this way made the fur business a seasonablo one of rel atively short duration. With the be- ginning. however, a few years ago of our present prosperous times in America, Dame Fashion interfeTed with custom in calling for the use of furs in the late spring and summer months, and this summer use of furs increased in popularity until it has reached starling proportions this year the volume of operations being sur prising. II has placed furs the world over in the last of all year com moditics. with every indication of this custom remaining permanently.
 The heavy consumption of furs so far the present summer has kept manufa cturers extremely busy and created such a big demand for goods that stocks of raw furs in all parts of the world havc shrunSen decidedly and visible supplies in the face of the worlds enlarged demand are unus- ually small. Tho result of such ac- tivity has found expression in in creased prices for most kinds of furs
 With the entrance also of Central Europe faftCr an absence of four years) Into the fur market. of which they formerly were one of the largest consumera. further advance in prices on practically all furs can be confidently looked for.
 Bt- movements or hojdinR1 rn.vc been made recently in all markets. The demand is not confined to only q few articles. but all kinds are wanted. The staples, such as skunk, opossum, mink. coon, etc, are apparently the strongest. with heavy inquiry also for practically all northern goods. Foxes, good quality wolves lynx. fisher and the like recently have been enjoying much favor at advanced prices and give cva-y p=oTnLsa Of commanding even moro attention for the halnnce of the sensou. Foreign furs of all kinds. arrivals of which iu this coun- try have no. been ns heavy as ex- pected, are likewise very much in de- mand. In fact, no article is ne giected. All classes of skins, from the short-haired to the lons-halred kinds, arc meeting with ready sale now.
