Low Shoes Without the Straps
NJ ANNE a11rnsHousn.

In Paris last summsr We were IN
terested In the effort made to REIN
state the low shoe with the effect OF
what 10 called an oxford. but without
any opening. The English and French
bootmakers were keen to, keep It to
the fore, but the mass Of women con-
tinued to ask for the strapped shoe.
They preferred 1t.
The elastic at the sides gained
some followers. but It was never reck-
oned as pretty. only as . clever idea
for the At, and 1t was . novelty. The
one strap, the three straps, continued
to satisfy women more than any other
shape
Here in America the strapped low
shoe. which was hrst refused admit
tance by some Of the conservatives
who make footgear. became the bread
and butter of tho majority who sell
shoes. Now, say the experts, their
doom Is sealed. their knell. Is rung.
It's to be the kind Of shoe which has
been launched in public at the French
races. Such shoes are pictured here

MAKING THE HOME ATTRACTIVE
NJ DOROTHY ETHEL WALSH.
Cretonne and Sateen.

Now II the season when cretonnes
seem quite desirable for homo deco
ration. Always cheerful additions to
q room, they seem in the spring to
shed moro happiness. and their bright
colors answer the call in our hearts
for summerlike surroundings,
Fashions change In homo decora-
tions as we'll as in personal attire,
and this year modern decoration has
spoken concerning cretonnes. Use
them as much as your hearts desire"
she has said, "but combine them with
some plain material to emphasize
their attraction" = -.
Therefore, when you HE you to the
drapery department allow some
money for strips of plain material to
add to the delectable bird or flower
cretonne you will choose. This plain
material does not play an important
part in the combination. It IL con-
tent to assist, rather than to domi-
nate, the figured material.
The artist has shown you q pair Of
cretonne draperies borde-ed with
narrow runes Of plain-colored sateen.
The cretonife has much lavender and
green in its design and the rufles
are light green. Straight bands may
be substituted for the rumes. or .
lambrequin made Of the sateen with
the draperies entirely Of the cre-
tonne. Many happy combinations can
be worked out with these two ma
terials.

Summer Garnishes.

Lemons, summer or winter. are among
the most usual and most useful forms
Of garnishment. With most sorts OF
fsh they are almost essential for best
venient cans Of salmon and tuna hsh,
and with fresh fish Of one sort or an
other always available. we have come
to use fsh great deal.
One way Of using lemon for q gar
nish is to serve two-quarters for each
and to cover one with paprika and the
other with freshly grated black pepper.
This is truly delicious garnish for
sardines.
Cucumber salad or an apple-and eel

Just q suspicion Of mint with cooked
peas, or . cream Of pea or potato soup

veal salad.

are q dish At for king. Vegetable
salad il added to in appearance and
taste by q SprinklinG Of parsley. With
many sorts of fish little sprays Of the
parsley are used as garnish. as they
are with boiled meat very often.
Leaves from the garden, washed until
they 1listen, are often used as q gar
nish for summer fruits. Grapefruit in
a bed Of fresh. dewy leaves: grapes
served in the same way and strawber-
ries served In the stem and garnished
with their own leaves are all attractive.
The use Of flowers for garnishine the
food on the table should be followed
rather sparingly. A few rose petals

terpisce containing compartments for
both fruits and flowers are perhaps "A

Al . family name Allen and Its
variations are the outgrowth of the
clan organisation Of Scotland, and.
like most names Of tho Scottish and
Irish DIVISIONS Of the Celtic race, can
so be traced back to q single individ-
uaL This. Of course, IL no infallibie
guarantee Of blood. however. for in
both ancient Scotland and ancient Ire
who became followers of the chief and
were adopted into the clan to take
the clan name.
There are many branches Of the
Allen line today. but virtually all OF
them trace back to Alan, a count OF
Brittany, who crossed to England
with William the Conquerror and OBJ
tained grants Of land in Scotland. II
was descendant Of this Alan also
who founded the Stuart line. which
later became tho royal family Of
Great Britain.
As given name. the origin Of Alan
taken over from the classical Ian
guages before Christ. Theoretical
attempts have been made to trace II
back to the mythical Greek poet Olen
credited in the classical legends with
having been the first to write hymns
in hexameter. It is certain that II
was in use among the Celts Of north
ern Europe in the forms Of Alawn
ALVIN and Ailwyn before the Roman
empire extended its way to those
parts. for 1t was taken into the Latin
in the form ELAN.
But there Is no indication that II
developed into family name in any
other land than Scotland.
