uneven hemline is also a feature of
many velvet dress.
Jumper models are now being de-
veloped in velvet and other fanciful
materials, assuming a dressy appear
ance. This is contrary to the initial
inspiration for the two-piece jumper
with skirt, which in it's beginnings was
restricted to the realm of sports wear.
Not so, at this writing, the jumper
suit having taken on ornate details
which make it eligible to the class Of
formal afternoon frocks Such is the
mood of a youthful afternoon frock,
which is version of the jumper
model. 1t is done in deep wine velvet
with fine steel bead embroidery. A
Chinese tassel which falls from a
handsome silver-stitched medallion at
the front lower edge of the blouse, sus-
tains the effect of dressiness. The
skirt uses sections of the velvet with
alternate plated portions of heavy silk
crepe.
What a rivalry exists between
our headgear and our footwear.
1t is a question which is the more
complicated in the choosing-that
which we shall wear on our heads or
that which we shall wear on our feet.

Plisse Effects Seen
in American Fashions

Where the straight silhouette ap-
pears in this seasons fashions it docs
not have the uncompromisingly severe
lines of last year, but is given q GER
tain fluid grace by cleverly concealed
godets and plaitings. Plisse effects.
which always have been featured in
French frocks but which recently only
have been made an integral part of
American fashions, frequently are
seen.
One reason for this is that since
the plisses are usually put in by hand
it is long and tedious process. But
designers have found that the results
more than justify the time taken in
making them.
Many are extremely intricate and
suggest honeycomb effects or smock-
ing, while in others there is an ap-
pearance Of diagonal or herringbone
stripes.

no end. Nothing quite so "dolls up"
ones costume as pair of scintillating
buckles on shapely exquisitely fitted
pumps.
Whoever heard of wings on our feet,
yet such is the miracle performed in
shoecraft. The shoe that boasts wings
is very appropriately called the spar
row model. See to the right in this
picture. 1t is a model of black kid
skin with four tiny white-tipped wing
like leather motifs sewed in at the
sides.
Black satin pumps with Colonial
steel buckles are preferred type for

tendency toward the prosaic which
might be suggested by the thoroughly
sensible heel is offset by the perky
little bow ties, and the graceful strap
pings across the instep.
There is no arbitrary law in regard
to heels which are either high or
medium low. For practical wear the
shoe stylist tells us that Cuban or.
Spanish heels are the proper thing.
For dress, the mode calls for high
heels. The tall narrow spike heel is
extremely popular. Rounded toes are
exploited rather than the long, mar
row kind.
Very important among fashionable
shoe types is the opera pump. The
subject of pumps invariably brings
up the vision of glittering Colonial
buckles-this year to a dazzling de-
gree. If Christmas wishes come true,

Hints on How to Make
Footwear Comfortable

Buckled shoes are sometimes loose
round the instep. If the portion of
leather to which the buckle is sewn is
unsewn and firmly stitched little
further back inside the shoe, this will
tighten it, and give greater comfort
TO the wearer.
Shoes little too big and which rub
may be made comfortable by fixing a
small length of narrow ribbon velvet
in the heel of the shoe with seccotine
or a pair of little fixtures sold at most
shoemakers for the purpose.
If patent shoe pinches any part Of
the foot rag soaked in boiling water
should be placed over the part while
the foot is in the shoe, and the leather
will soften to the shape Of the foot.

Don't Waste Butter

Why waste butter, whether it's 40
or 80 cents pound, asks the United
States Department of Agriculture?
Using individual butter plates, bread
and butter plates, or even Individual
saucers for butter keeps all unused
butter clean and disable in cooking.
The saving is worth the additional
dishwashing. Serving butter in indi-
vidual pats rather than putting a
whole piece on the table prevents
waste and If the pats are made small
it is easier for each person to take as
much as he wishes and no mora

Plain Pie Crust.

Il two-crust pie).
n cupfuls sifted soft wheat -four.
Sh to tablespoonfuls fat
1 teaspoonful salt.
About PA tablespoonfuls water.
Soft wheat or pastry flour is de-
sirable, but if only strong, or bread
-four, is on hand, a little less should be
uSed-Rbout seven-eighths as much.
Mix and sift the salt and the flour,
and work in the fat with the tips of the
fingers as lightly and quickly as pos
sible. The use Of a knife, pastry fork,
or biscuit cutter is often recommended
to avoid warming or handling the ma
terials too much. Add the water slow
ly and use no more than is absolutely
necessary. Roll the dough very lightly,
each crust separately. When putting
on an upper crust, moisten the edges
SO they will stick together, and crimp
them around with fork or the fingers
Prick the top several times with
fork to allow the steam to escape.
If the filling is very liquid in nature
or even of the consistency of lemon
meringue or pumpkin, it is better to
prebake the lower crust about ten
minutes, until it is delicately colored,
but not brown. The juices or liquids
do not then affect the pie crust and
make it soggy. A lower crust is en-
tirely prebaked when cooked filing,
such as lemon, chocolate, or butter
scotch. is to be used
Start two-crust pie in an oven with
very high temperature (about $50
degrees Fahrenheit), and then, after
eight or ten minutes, lower the heat
rapidly so that the filing may cook
through without overlooking the crust.
The filling for the Thanksgiving pie
may be any preferred kind. Pumpkin
and mince seem about equal in pop
ularlty at this season, but apple, raisin
and lemon meringue pies appear very
often, and other family favorites may
be served. Mince and apple pies are
usually made with two crusts, al
though occasionally criss-cross strips
are used instead of an upper crust
Pumpkin and lemon pies are made
with a lower crust only. A very fes-
tive looking pie may be made by add
ing meringue or whipped cream to a
plain oren pie. Almost any kind of a
pie except lemon meringue may be
served "a la mode"-that is, with a
spoonful of vanilla ice cream on top.
