THE HOUSEHOLD
Edited by ANNE RITTENHOUsE
YOUR LUNCH BOX

Here are some suggestions for the
lunch you take when you go for an
all-day motor trip.
Roast beef sandwiches are very
good when you wish hearty lunch,
and are sure to find more favor with
the men in your party than the after
noon tea variety of sandwiches dear
to the heart of most women. To
make them you will need slices of
cold roast beef sliced thin. Have
ready some chopped onion and grated
horseradish mixed with a little vine
gar. Butter large slices of bread and
lay on half of the slices a slice of
beef, sprinkled sparingly with the
onion and horseradish and cover with
the other slices.
If you are planning to carry potato
salad on a warm day, make sure that
the potatoes are cooled quickly and
kept on ice until needed. Also be

New York.-Here and there. thru
out several summer seasons, there has
flickered in the fashions striped avn

material was too hot for our climate.

substitutes for sweaters.

Opaque clothes. even tho they may

found that a black crepe de chine or
a dark blue fouIard is infinitely cooler
than a striped awning frock. So the
use of the fabric diminished until 1t
reached zero.
Initiating the Dircctoire.
The dressmakers and the designers
Of fabrics evidently like the striped
awning effect, for they introduced it in
various ways, which the public, how
ever, did not endorse; and then. sud-
denly, when the recrudescence of the
Directoire was talked of in Paris,
there came about a widely striped
linen that took on the appearance of
awning, without its warmth.
The average woman naturally
breads a broadly striped material. She
does not have to consult the weigh
from her dressmaker; she simply runs
from the temptation.
But the average woman does not
rule the fashions. The high lights. are
given by the daring, the young, the
individual, and the artistic.
1t is these sections of society that
create fashions The average woman
is apt to wear anything that will cover
her body and keep her from criticism.
But this is not fashion. 1t is just
clothes. -
There exists in this country a large
group OF young women who prefer
broad stripes to solid colors just be-
cause they attract attention; and II
they cannot be worn in the winter, the
seashore and the mountains afford a
good opportunity to indulge in them
during the simmer season.
Therefore, this linen fabric, with its
broad stripes, has many adherents.
Touched With Tassels,
A striped linen gown by itself might
not be attractive, especially in black
and white, but when it has red, blue
or yellow tassels attached to it, then
it instantly scars into the heights OF
individuality.
In other words, it looks more than
