Scarf Materials Range
From Silks to Chiffon

IL There is scarf for every occasion,
and the woman who wishes to be
smartly attired sees to it that she has
one to go with each costume, whether
1t be the morning tailleur, sports out
fit, afternoon ensemble or evening
Dress For the tailored suit and top
coat there is the CYCLIC scarf, quite
narrow and not very long, tying in
knot at the side of the neck. These
scarfs come in a wide variety of col
Ors that blend well with wooden ma
terialS. For sports wear there is an
unlimited selection, ranging from the
sheerest of chfffons to squares made
of heavy printed silk. Silk scarfs
with white backgrounds have designs
executed in clear blues and bright
reds. They are so summery looking
that they belong to the watering
places only.
For promenade, tennis and golf
tints, rainbow effects brought out in
subdued colorings and long wide
scarfs in solid colors with intricate
border designs. The small square
scarfs, which are copied from old
English prints, are folded in half at
an angle and worn so that the double
points may protect the throat from
sunburn. Chiffon scarfs, on account
of the sheerness of the material, are
more voluminous than those Of silk
Being both wide and long they drape
well about the neck and shoulders,
and may be worn with equal impunity
with chiffon afternoon frock or elab-
crate evening dress. The selection
is governed solely by design and color
scheme. Chiffon scarfs with back
grounds in white and the pastel
shades catch the spirit of summer
skies and gardens when decorated
with roses, spring flowers, birds, feath-
ers and woodland scenes. They sug-
gest vivaciousness and that spirit Of
motion which characterizes this years

Vary White Sauce Used
in Serving Manv Dishes

To vary the white sauce used In
serving such dishes as creamed pota-
toes, eggs, toast or vegetables, or in
making scalloped dishes, try adding
half a cupful of cottage cheese to
each pint Of sauce. Cool the sauce
slightly before adding it to the cheese.
says the United States Department of
Agriculture. Stir till we'll blended,
and then reheat in a double boiler.
Avoid boiling the sauce after the
cheese is added.
If the cheese is strongly acid 1t
may be necessary to add a small
amount of baking soda to 1t before
mixing with the sauce. If q half a
cupful of cheese is to be used dis
solve quarter of a teaspoonful of
soda in little hot milk or water and
blend with the cheese, then combine
the latter with the sauce.
Variations in the flavor of the
sauce may be made by seasoning with
cayenne pepper; by mixing a dash
Of curry powder with the flour used
to thicken the sauce and adding q
few drops Of onion Juice; by adding
a little worcestershire sauce and
some finely chopped parsley; or by
adding chopped parsley and pimen-
toes.

Takes 20 Minutes to
Apply Georgia's Seal

Atlanta, Ga.-Twenty minutes are
required for an expert to attach the
great seal Of Georgia to a document.
Only couple Of seconds are necessary
for the process In other states.
The difference Is between the seal
Of 1899, which the state still uses, and
the seal of modern invention.
Sealing wax is rolled into thin wa
fers when Georgias seal is made
ready for operation. Gilt paper, cut
circular in form, the exact size of the
die, with serrated edges, next is laid
upon each side Of the wax wafer. At
the same time ribbons are inserted
between the wafer and the paper
disks. The wafer then is placed be-
tween the plates of the die and
stamped tightly, leaving the devices
imprinted on either side Of the soft
wax and revealed, like an engraving,
on the gilded paper. This is attached
by narrow ribbons to the document of
state, forming what is known as a
wax pendant.

Last Years Tendencies
Noted in New Fabrics

In design American fabrics reflect a
modification and many variations Of
last years tendencies. There is a
warm sentiment for plain colors,
though patterns of several types will
be worn. There are three distinct
classificatiOns in figured goods-the
floral designs conventionalized in
drawing, but reproduced in natural
tints; the modernistic tendency evi-
dent in cubist figures; and the small
patterns called by their creators "con-
fetti." Tiny geometric patterns,
checks, and above all, polka dots are
in great demand and are exceedingly
popular among women who prefer
chic to display. There are many love-
ly things in ombre silks and crepes,
some stripes, and there is an absolute
craze among some of the architects Of
gowns for printed borders. These are
charming in the printed voiles and
chiffOns, the pattern being done in
beautiful colors on a tinted back
ground.

With the exception of the practical

which continues to adhere to strictly
plain tailored lines and is devoid Of
all adornment, practically all sports
costumes demonstrate the significance
of trimming as an important style fac

Mercerized Fabrics No,U
Are Strong and Durable

Some confusion exists In the minds
Of many housekeepers as to distinc-
tions between "mercerized" cotton
goods, and those fabrics having more
or less temporary glossy finishes pro-
duced by paste mixtures. Paper cam
brio" Is an example of a fabric with
the paste finish. Artificial silk, or ray
on, Is more lustrous fabric than
either Of these, but should not be
mistaken for mercerized cotton.
Many years ago, says the United
States Department of Agriculture,
John Mercer, for whom the process Is
named, discovered that when cotton
yarn or cloth was dipped in strong
solutions Of lye for a short time and
then washed, neutralized, and dried,
1t became much stronger. In later
years 1t was noted that If the yarn
or cloth was held under well-regulated
tension during the process it was
rendered glossier as we'll as stronger.
Hence, mercerization is q process that
adds not only durability but beauty.
There are today on the market many
cotton fabrics in which the entire
cloth Is glossier and stronger than
ordinary cotton materials, or in which
bright merceriZed yarns have been in
troduced to form stripes, checks, or
figures. Some of the best known mer-
cerized fabrics are batiste, mill, cot
ton damask, cotton foulard, sateen,
venetian. and cotton poplin. Each of
these is valuable for some special
purpose, according to its character
the sheer, fine fabrics like batiste for
underwear and infants dresses, and
the heavier ones for Innings or house
hold uses.

The sports frock, which Is suitable
for wear at tea and informal dancing
parties, is represented in many types
and fabrics, and employs an unlim-
tied choice Of trimming chief among
which are colorful painting, embroid-
cry, novel effects In wool and occa-
sionally lace
Brilliant effects are achieved with
modernistic and plastic printing, Rus
sian embroidery, and hand blocked de-
signs. In some of the frocks which
are cut with very wide sleeves and
usually are interpreted in heavy silk
crepe in pastel shade or white, stain
glass window designs, or conventional
lied floral or fruit patterns are exc
cuted in vivid purples, rose, green's
and blues on the sleeve section alone.
Further to enhance the color appeal
the sleeve, when it is permitted to
hang unconfined in wide kimono eff
feet, is lined with the dominant color
of the design.
Plated frills are widely endorsed
as jabots, collars and cuffs, and even
in an occasional skirt ruffle, careful,
however, to be so placed as not to de-
tract from the slender, tailored sports
silhouette.
Crocheted wool in novel stitches
makes very smart banding for jumper
borders and to outline cuffs, chemisier
panels and collars.

particularly important in pocket, cuff
and collar trimming or swagger motor

Prayer Fails to Cure
His Talking-Fine Does

Hagerstown, Md. - When prayer
failed to cure Jesse W. Weaver, Jr.,
of talking during services in the
Church of God at Samples Manor,
near here, members of the congrega-
ton took heroic measures.
Three members Of the congregation
seized Weaver during services one
night and brought him to the police
court here. A fine of $14, which the
justice assessed, was paid.
Members of the congregation said
that Weaver talked continually during
services They prayed for him, begged
him to desist, and finally threatened
him, they said, but without success.
