The name of Carol kept drifting
from the next bridge table and was
heard as often Is hearts and clubs,
spades and diamonds. Jeanne was tell
ing the tale which she had told me
with full gusto the night before.
And there was the drug store win
dow fun Of prepared vegetable pulp
for baby soup" she said 81 just made
Carol stop and look at it, and told
her, There's another short cut for you
madame; seems to me every time I
stop at your house you are fixing vege-
tables for Juniors SOUP And Carol
just stood there and looked, and she
didn't seem at all enthused at finding
another short cut, and finally she said,
real tragically, There won't be anything
left for us mothers to do pretty soone !"
Jeanne's story went over big, as her
repertoire of Carol stories always do
with this crowd. Carol Is the odd
one" of the old school crowd. She had
the audacity 10 have four babies in. six
years and she does most all her own
work and, strangest Of all, she likes 1t
and has never been heard to make the
universal moan of the modern married
Sisterhood to the effect that II she
hadn't been foolish enough to marry
so young she might have been famous
In some line or another.
/ have often heard Carol pnlloSopnlze
something to this effect: Il am do
mestically minded, and know It," she
says. ~ know a woman Is supposed
to be ashamed these days to admit she
gets q kick out of running curtains or
dyeing an old dress and making baby
dresses out Of 1t. or cooking dinner
or washing dishes. But I honestly do.
"But this Is what Is happening. There's
been so much talk about the drudgery
Of homework, the insult 1t Is to any
intelligent woman's capacity, that the
whole industrial and commercial world
Is getting busy, until we see first one
job and then another taken away from
US, and taken away so well and eff
ficiently that we would indeed be fools
to try to compete In our own kitchen
with what q laboratory working for
thousands Of Kitchens can do.

GLIDING Turn1Cure proves q god
l. send to the woman who lives In
a small apartment or one Of the
i new suburban cottages that are
so we'll filled with all modern
conveniences that space In which to
put chairs and tables seems to have
been somewhat overlooked.
Even In the more spacious house or
apartment there is much to be said In
favor Of the chairs and tables that may
be folded up and tucked away when not
needed-then brought to light again
when guests are to be numerous
There is something rather attractive
about the idea Of having the living
room or drawing room of the house .
not too crowded sort Of room that can
serve rs the setting for various sorts OF
plays-fiot cluttered all the time with
the equipment for all possible erner-
gencies
Custom sanctions the habit Of Dor
rowing card-party tables when neces-
sary but the hostess who can possibly
afford II soon makes UP her mind that
1t is q great deal pleasanter to have
three or four card tables of her own so
that unless she is giving rather large
party she won't have To ask any OF the
guests to bring tables with them. And
there Is something rather depressing
about having to send to the nearest
undertaken for camp chairs when the
number Of guests expected exceeds the
household supply Of chairs.

Wood Plays Part
In Accessories

Wood has an interesting and innpor-
tant place in the new accessories Not
only are there wooden bracelets and
necklaces and chokers made of wooden
beads, but there are belts to match:
made OF wooden beads, or plaques
strung on elastic so that when clasped
at the front they cling closely 20 the

Many Of the smartest Of the new
fabric or leather bags are mounted on
frames OF polished wood showing thu

Chocolate Shows
Value as Food

Long before the coming of the white
man to Mexico natives had cultivated
the theobrofna tree for the beans which
provided them with a favorite article
Of diet. From the Mexican word cacao
we get our word cocoa. Chocolate was
the Mexican word for the drink OBJ
tanned from the bean and 1t Is from
this word that we get our word choco-
late.
Cocoa contains not much more than
half as much fat as chocolate. It is,
therefore, better for persons who do not
wish to gain weight and ID sometimes
thought more digestible.
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1929-06-16

Chocolate was introduced into Europe
by explorers who had been in Mexico,
some hundreds years before coffee was
introduced from the East.
Theobronaa, the scientific name for
the tree from which cocoa and choco-
late are obtained, means gift of the
gods.
First used In Spain, then In italy,
chocolate went to England by way Of
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1929-06-16

and coffee. Cocoa contains slightly
more theobromine than chocolate, but
not fifth as much caffein.
1t Is said Of chocolate and cocoa that
they are less stimulating than tea or
coffee but more sustaining. They have,
of course. real food value, while coffee
and tea have not, aside from the cream
and sugar taken In connection with
them.

Garden Stakes
In Neutral Tones

There are all sorts Of colorful stakes
to be used for giving support to garden
plants and shrubs. One gardener with
a delicate sense of color insists that
bright colofed stakes should never be
used because they detract from or clash
with the coiors Of foliage and flowers.
She likes natural-colored bamboo
stakes for all purposes. II wooden
stakes are used then they should be
painted q neutral tone of gray. or q
soft grayish beige, the color Of wealth
cred wood.

WOMAN'SCHOICE
HAS BEARING ON
CAR ENGINEERS

just as artists, designers and dec
orators have, for a number of years,
been guided by the taste and sense
Of style of the, woman motorist, so is
her influence on the mechanical de-
tails of the car being felt today in
the engineering laboratories of the
manufacturers.
In the evolution of the automobile,
the woman was given first considera-
tion in the choice of body lines, col
or treatments and inner refinements.
No important step was taken in the
art studios of the builder before her
reaction to new styles had been de-
termined. While this is equally true.
today, she, as n driver and owner,
is now excrting an even greater in
f,uence on mechanical developments.
Due to the everincreasing number
who drive their own ears, this in
f!uence is being felt to- an extent
never before thought possible and
the modern car is being built as
much for the woman as for the man
driver.
"Women have played big part
in establishing the standards of
Chrysler engineers" SAID j. w.
Frazer, general sales manager of the
Chrysler Sales Corporation at De
troit, in recent interview. "The
women who drive are looked upon as
important members of the advisory
staff in our laboratories. Their de-
mands for comfort and ease of hand
ling largely influenced and mechani.
cal design of the new al" and "70"
models, in which performance and
safety are brought to new high
levels.
The MultiRangc Gear Shift, an
outstanding feature of these models,
nlakcs possible a new conception of
ease of handling and simplified op-
Grafton. 1t is quiet and smooth IN
action and permits backward and
forward shifts between the accelera
tion and speed ranges without tue
necessity of slowing the ear. This
eliminates excessive use of the brake
pedal and attendant fatigue. In ad
dition, the absence of grinding and
clashing of gears, in making shifts
from one speed to another, is exccp-
tionally popular and has aroused
keen enthusiasm in women drivers
al over the country.
"The long, sweeping body lines,
attractive color combinations and
luxurious interiors lack nothing in
beauty. The new pillowtype up
holstery, vanity cases, smoking sets
and exclusively Chrysler modcrnis-
tic instrument panel, executed by
Cartier ct Gle, famous New York
and Paris jewellers, have an immedi-
ate appeal to the woman who de
mands individuality. Added to
these are mechanical innovations
lit traffic or on the open highway
and easier to park in the crowded
downtown centers. Safe and quick
acting hydraulic four-wheel brakes
give security and safety.
''These are q few of the features
that insure safe control of the new
Chryslers with minimum of effort
at all speeds and under all condi-
tions of traffic, enabling the woman
- drive with complete comfort and
added peace of mind.
''The more m0tor-wise the woman
driver is the more she will appreci
ate what Chrysler engineers have
provided i'll performance but even
the woman who knows nothing of
the mechanics of ears will sense the
difference in the way they drive
and ride, and their beauty and com
fort"
