WOMAN DESIGNER TELLS
HOW TO DRESS WELL
BY MARIAN HALF.

NEW YORK, March 31.-Do you
think of your body or of your
soul when you buy a gown?
The chances are, IL you concen-
trate on your height and width and
ponder as to whether checks or
stripes are your best bet, you don't
stand out as distinctive dresser.
But if you think of your tempera-
ment and your talents and your as
pirations and all those soulful
things and buy your clothes to ex-
press them, you probably are pes
tered to death answering the ques-
ton, Where do you buy your
clothes?"
All this I learned from Louise
Faulconer, who is a regular Bolshev-
lst when it comes to smashing sar-
torial traditions. She has so many
radical ideas about dress she simply
had to open a shop of her own in
New York so she could show the
world at least the commercial
world, that she's right.
individuality In Dress
Clothes never look the same on
two women, not because their sizes
may not be Identical but because
their personalities are different" she
explained.
when you think of your friends
you don't classify them as to size,
do you?" she demanded. "You don't
think of Jennie as the tall girl, Mary
the short one and Julia the one who
is getting too stout. You think of
Jennie as the vivacious creature,
Mary as the moody one whose feel
ings must be considered and Julia as
the best natured person in the
world.
when I plan clothes for a
woman, / don't consider her height
or her weight, unless it's abnormal,
because it's my business, if I know
anything about dressma,.ing, to be
able to keep her lines in proportion;
but I do study her temperament.
'The lively girl can wear the gay,
festive clothes that would be en-
tirely too vivid for the more sedate

Pleasing Sauce
BY BERTHA r. SHAPLEIGH
OF Columbia University

The real French method of max
ing a Hollandaise sauce is to make
an emulsion of egg yolks, acid and
butter. cooking it over water. To this
thick sauce, which is quite the fin
est of all sauces, some American
cooks add boiling water, thinning the
sauce and making it good for baked
or boiled fish where a thinner sauce
is more desirable. Because the
sauce cannot be kept hot without
danger of separation, many cooks
add small amount of thick white
sauce.
A good recipe consists of one-half
cup butter, two egg yolks, one table
spoon lemon juice or vinegar, one
quarter teaspoon salt and little
cayenne.
Work the butter until creamy, but
not soft, and divide it into three
portions. Place one portion with
egg yolks and acid in a sauce pan.
Hold the sauce pan over hot water,
and stir constantly until the egg
yolks have begun to thicken the but
ter; add a second portion of butter,
and then the remaining piece. When
butter is melted and the mixture is
as smooth as mayonnaise, remove
from the fire. Season and serve 1T
once.
If a separation does take place
add a tablespoon of boiling water or
cream, and stir vigorously.
Hollandaise may be used with a
tenderloin of beef, veal outlet, fried
or broiled fish, artichokes, asparagus
and many egg dishes. There IRE
many variations, such as the addi
ton of talragon, anchovy sauce,
cream or tomato purie.

Let's Hear From Siam,

Let's Hear From Siam!
Here come the comparisons
again!
Most American girls continue to
wave the Star Spangled Banner when
1t comes to choosing a husband. They
|. seldom think about the imported
article, unless they are hunting a
title. Even so, of late years our
home-talent heiresses have been pre-
ferring the domestic brand.
But French women apparently like
to shop around" At any rate, we
are favored with diversity of their
views oftener. And the latest self
constituted authority on THE Great
Lover is one Mademoiselle Mistin-
Guett, of Par-ee, who will address us
this evening on subject in which,
l am sure, WE are all interested.
Ladies and gentlemen, I have the
honor to present Mile. Mistinguett:
1.-The best lover?" That depends.
IF you measure him by his ac-
complished manner, his case and
poise, then the Frenchman tops the
list.
IF ardor and passion are the
prime essentials, then the palm goes
to the Italian.
'lf consistency, fidelity and lasting
tenderness are requisite, the Eng
lishman has much to commend him.
IF tempestuous wooing, combined
with humor, largeness of view and
an airy disregard for petty sins are
taken into account, the Irishman
is the most lovable creature on earth.
THE American man, as a whols
is the most accomplished fiirt in the
world. and knows better than any
one else how to say and do the lit
tie nothings so dear to a. wonan's
heart. But he is not a great lover.
Americans are proud of the fact
that they place women on q pedes-
tai. What most Americans mistake
for love is merely worship.
And any woman would ten times
sooner be loved than worshipped."
We'd like to make just one amend
ment. That pedestal you were dis
cussing. Mile. Mistinguett, some
times turns into a shelf.

WON o>i> FoRcED. 1 ON CHILD

If your boy prefers baseball to
violin practice and your girl would
rather play jacks than piano let
the children follow their inclina-
tions.
Don't force technical musical
education on them.
That's the advice of two of the
leading stars on the concert stage
today-Mme. Louise Homer. famous
contralto, and Nine. Olga Samaroff
pianist. Both are mothers, and both
say if their children had no inclina-
ton to earn the mechanics of mu-
sic they would not force this on
them.
But musical appreciation can be
fostered in pleasanter ways than by
technical learning they agree. Nine.
Homer believes it is more important
to appreciate a masterpiece than 20
struggle through a sonata without
pleasure.
'"The development of musical
taste" she says, comes from con-
stantly hearing the best music
Technical study is for the few and
gifted, but esthetic study and famil-
iarity of the classics should be with
in the reach of all children"
To this Nine. Samaroff adds:
Instead Of claiming a child to an
instrument and forcing it to make
bad music it is possible to develop
through study of musical history
and theory and concerts a love and
understanding of music in the child.
1T is my hope that courses on
musical appreciation will have
definite place in all schools and col
leges.
