of a really thoughtful cook or housewife

precise dovetaiiing of all the parts.

you have to SO back and forth to the

Food Waste.

MASTERS Of food may be thought OF as
all belonging TO one of four different
groups.
Poor choice to begin with.
Poor preparation for the table.
Poor serving.
Actual spoilage through careless
handling
think that every housewife has
what might be called a faVorite way
OF wasting food Thus one housewife
who is careful never TO buy bit Of
fruit or a vegetable that Is not per-
fectly fresh, let's ever so much food spoil
right In her own kitchen by not keep
Ing 1t on Ice. That lis waste number
four Another housewife who insists
on getting good food and who keeps IL
carefully, frequently burns and scorches

pudding or a cake because 1t was not
made right

women buy cheap vegetables or fruit
only 10 ind them stale or partly rotten.
They buy cheap cuts Of meat that not
infrequently prove unpalatable. Some
women actually grow accustomed 10
finding food UNIT for use after they
have bought IL.
Some women's favorite way Of vast
Ing food Is IN the serving. Portions are
too large. Food Is presented which does
not suit individual taste. Meals are so
planned that certain dishes come away
from the table untouched
In trying To check up on your own
food waste IL Is an excellent plan To ind
out just what sort Of sp0ilage takes

refrigerator. or again II may be that you
need q more honest provision dealer,

cooked and maybe the only trouble is
that your meals are not properly

WOMEN WHO MAKE UNIFORMS

II you want to make money with
out neglecting your work at home you
may possibly find that you can do
this making uniforms. One woman
who now owns and manages a large
business in uniforms began working In
spare time. sandwiched in between
household tasks. Another woman who
has been devoting spare time to this
work for two years makes enough to
buy the clothes for herself and two
daughters. with little spending money
besides.
The work requires f1rst-rate abil-
ity at plain machine sewing. But 1t
does not call for originality nor a
knowledge OF fashionable dreSsmaking,
To begin with you win need only
enough money to buy material for two
or three uniforms and IN up-to-date.
attractive nurses uniform pattern. I
would suggest looking at the new uni
forms In the shops for ideas. I would
also suggest making one of the uni
forms from good quality white crepe
de chine. because quite recently these
silk uniforms have come into favor
with many nurses. II you make the
uniforms in your own size you may
use them later for house dresses and
so your outlay will not have been
wasted. Make them With the greatest
possible precision--so that they viii
look every bit as good as those sold in
the stores.
Armed with these uniforms I would
suggest going to see the head nurses
at the hospitals within easy reach of
your home. II you can get a personal
introduction to them so much the bet

be able to get permission to see the
other nurses.
You viii perhaps be told that the
uniforms for the pupil nurses are
bought ready made. Your selling point
is that uniforms made to order look
better because they can be adjusted
here and there to suit the individual.
This can, of course, be done by
lengthening or shortening the pattern
at various places and this you can do

Soft, New Beauty

Many of us have memories OF tweeds
In days gone by as fabrics all very well
for cold weather wear If you wanted
something durable and substantial. But
nowadays, when we play golf in crepe
de chine and wear tatfeta for bathing

and serviceable fabrics. Most OF us
would rather take our chances with the
Trailer fabrics.

softened with brown, browns that are

suggest green, and green's that have an
overtone of blue.
So between the two characteristics

the new tweed Is quite desirable.
