not compare with the slender grace of
the previous silhouettes. Indeed, the
slow catching on of the fall and win
ter innovations-it is only recently
that the new styles have become really
popularized- may be laid to the inhar-
monious blending of the early fall con-
ceptions of the hat with the balance
of the costume.
The elemental soundness of the
cloche was an important factor in the
compromise of this conflict.
Nevertheless, the important fact
about the winter millinery is that the
cloche dynasty has ended, and while
it is true that milady has been some
what chary in making any radical
departures from it, it is also true that
the mode now sanctions variety of
types, and one may be quite en- regle
with even the highest crowned direc-
toire, If it is sufficiently becoming.
Generally the more radical species are
not fattering for the reasons stated
above, and that is why the progeny Of
the cloche survive, although the cloche
itself has passed.

Care in Handling Food
and Preventing Waste

What care do you give your food
supply after it has arrived at your
home? To me, writes Helen Harring-
ton Downing, on Saving at Home
that is an important question and one
that has strong bearing on thrift.
have been very much impressed in my
dealings with several of the national
food producers where products are
handled commercially, with minute at
tention given to their choice of foods,
the care in preparing and the scien-
tific accuracy in cooking them.
They have found it necessary to
study all these things to insure best
quality and the most economical re-
suits. In handling foods commercially
a waste in food value augments the
cost of food production, and should
therefore be reduced to the smallest
degree.
How does expert care in the COM
mercial kitchen compare with that gen.
orally given food products in the aver
age home?
Various elements contribute to spoil
our food. Heat, air, sunlight and prop
er temperature are conducive to the
growth of food products and also to
their proper preservation, but the spoil
age of foods is often caused by
exposure to dust, air, too much light,
heat or cold.
Air carries dust, and dust contains
organisms which attack food and
cause decay. This is one very good
reason why food products should not
be exposed to dust in stores.
The housewife who does her own
marketing must not feel that her task
is finished when she puts her basket
on the kitchen table. The food must
be properly put away and prepared for

How large that measure is and its
relative importance to the newer
shapes, can be gagged from cursory
survey of the mode in general.
The beginning of the autumn sea-
son witnessed several fundamental in
novations in the style situation. The
undertaking straightline was being
gradually sVpplanted by any one of
several types of the flare-the skirt
was essentially shorter and the mo-
notony of the cloche had been happily
interrupted by higher crowns and
larger brims. There were other
changes, Of course, bat these are the

Ensembles in Different
CoIors of Materials

Many ensembles are made of two
materials different in color, such as
brown and beige, black and green, or
different in fabric only. Many after
noon dresses have straight slit tunics,
like the Chinese, or widened at the
bottom by a shaped f1ounce, or with
plisses at the sides. Black models are
mostly embroidered with white or
some vivid color, blue in particular;
often in silver and gold. A very pretty
black and white model was black

sleeveless, opened in front in very
