CORRECTING 4 WRONG
 IMPRESSION

The Boston Herald declares 1t is liar frem being sure that 1t is de- sirable to put the child labor amend ment into our constitution, but 1t takes the opportunity to correct & misapprehension and the false state ments being made regarding it. this in the interest of truth and a proper conception of its proposals.
 The New Haven Journal-CDurier had declared 1t heartening that so much interest is being taken in Con- necticut in the proposed amendment "forbidding the employment of per- sons in productive labor under IS years of age" The same statement. in effect, has been made by other newspapers in Connecticut which frankly oppose, rather than show a desire to elucidate, the amendment. The Boston paper aptly describes the amendment in the following words:
 The amendment does not
 forbid the employment of per- sons in productive labor or in
 anything else at, that age. It
 merely gives congress the au-
 thority to legislate regarding the
 employment of persons under IS
 years-quite a different matter.
 We have always believed
 that 1t would have been much
 better if the prohibition amend
 msnt had taken the same form
 ---if instead of forbidding the
 beverage tra.fic in intoxicating
 liquors 1t had given congress
 the authority to do so. This
 would have created a stage of
 affairs more responsive to the
 popular will at all times than
 that under which we are now
 operatipg."

CoIorfuI Effects in
Fashionable Jewelry

One might suppose that after the
continued craze for the wearing of SO
much jewelry a reaction would be IN
order. Not only has this reaction not
occurred but the demand for all sorts
of novelties in the way OF bracelets,
pendants, earrings and other orna-
ments seems to grow stronger each
day and jewelry, both with the
Parisienne and the American woman
becomes more and more elaborate
with an increasing number OF pieces
worn at one time.
Jewelry is colorful this winter. The
entire gamut of semi-precious stones
is worn during the day in vivid ana
contrasting colors-red and black ef-
fects in coral and onyx and green ana
blue colorings in jade and lapis Ihey
are worn as necklaces, as earrings ana
as bracelets. Even watch bracelets
which used to be worn mostly on
black ribbon are now worn on
bright red ribbon by the very smart
est women.
Among the new vogues sponsored IS
the .'brooch cliQuet," or douDle-neau-
cd pins. which are worn in the day
time as hatpins and also as an orna-
ment at the waist. These pins are
very often composed OF ValuaDle
stones.

outlining row of rhinestones, of which
she is frankly fond.
One such sample of the artists
talent, notes a fashion writer in the
New York Times, is in pale yellow fiat
crepe. The frock proper is chemise,
cut V in the neck in front, round at
the back and sleeveless. Marking the
waistline at the hips, a square Of the
material is gathered slightly on at
each side, half the width Of the ma
terial, and left loose to cascade almost
to the floor. The gown is plain in the
back, the skirt gathered slightly to the
bodice. A line of brilliants edges the
neck and hangs like necklace, front
and back, finished with a pretty orna-
ment Of the stones. This rhinestone
outline marks also the under arm
seams and another such ornament fin
ishes at each side.
There is no effort at celebrating this
gown which the authors imitators
have reproduced in countless ways, ma
terials and colors. Vionet goes in also
for the front drapery that marks a
striking contrast to the back of the
frock. which is straight from the neck
to the hem. Without reason or apol-
ogy a piece of the material is set,
plated or gathered in the middle of
the front of the dress, fastening across
the low waistline and hanging almost
to the floor, to be stumbled over, never
to be held aside, if the wearer be au

Either the straight dough" or

method the dough is mixed at night
If the smaller amount of yeast is used
or in the morning if the larger amount
is to be used This is matter of the
housewives convenience. The sponge
method of mixing is described in Farm
ers' Bulletin 1136, Baking in the
Home" which is free on application to
the United States Department of Agri-
culture. The method for making an
overnight straight dough is also given
I'm this bulletin The short process
straight dough is given below.
Short Process or Straight Dough.
Soften the yeast with a small
amount of Iukewarm liquid. To the
rest of the liquid add the salt, sugar
and shortening. Add the yeast and
mix all together. Measure the sifted
-four into bowl and blend with the
liquid. If too soft to knead, add more
-four until of the proper consistency.
Knead FIVE to ten minutes or until
smooth, elastic and no longer sticky.
Cover with a lid or plate and place
where it will be away from drafts and
at a uniform temperature of so to 90
degrees F. Let rise until about double
its original bulk or until slight touch
of the finger leaves an impression.
This should happen within one or two
hours if the yeast is in good condition
and the temperature right.
Cut down the dough from the sides
of the bowl and knead. Should the
dough be too soft, add flour, a little at
a time, kneading until it is smooth,
elastic and free from large gas
bubbles. If the dough be too stiff,
add a little water, working it in well,
and knead until the dough no longer
sticks to the fingers or bowl. Cover
and set aside in the same warm place
for an hour or an hour and half, or
until very light and at least double in
bulk.
When the dough is ready for mold
ing cut down, add the raisins previ-
Ously dredged with flour, knead them
in well, form into loaf shape, and place
in creased tin. When quite light, bake
in moderate oven about 80 minutes.
If desired, the top of the loaf may
be brushed with a solution Of l tea
