same dress with solid black or
white.
This is sometimes carried out in
rather extreme fashion, such as one
sleeve of the one material and one
of the other, or skirt panels on the
two sides in the contrasting fabrics.
When tastefully carried out, the re-
suit often is delightful.
TINE great popularity this season
l. of lame Qah-may) cloths of
every description naturally has sent
the fabric-makers scurrying to find
new variations in metallic Stuffs.
Gold and silver are most frequently
seen, naturally, but this season is
not without its interesting novelties
in this direction.
PrettieSt of all, to our way of
thinking, is the new platinum lame,
which has greyer tone than it's
silver sister, and is less scintillant,
but which gains in elegance and
beauty through its very sobriety.
Like the other lanes, this plati-
mum cloth is made up both plain
and in the lovely embroidered, bro
caded and broched forms which
are so important a feature of the
present mode.

Beauty Can

BY JULIA BLANSHARD
NEA Service Writer

NEW YORK. Dec. 18.-Making
Christmas homey-time Of family
iollity that the children will remem-
Der forever is a real opportunity in
these days when the clan spirit is
disintegratjnp
It does not take Injuries to ac-
complish this. It is not the crea-
ture comforts that adults recall with
a warming glow about the heart
when memories of childhood days
crowd in upon them.
Rather. it is the atmosphere of
home happiness, the spirit of hos
pitality. the delight la small things,
that we're transmitted to them by
fathers and mothers who really
loved to make much of home days
such as the Yuletide season.
Decoration Is Important
Decorating for Christmas is one
Of the most important ways to build
up home interest. Nothing on earth
could be more memorable than a
Christmas eve on old Beacon Hill,
Boston. where every window in
CfElY GOiilFf NUN AEiidl ~ Blll
has a lighted candle in it,
Christmas trees are the most uni
ve9sal holiday decorations.
II the children help decorate it.,
and they should, consider their pref
erence in the glittering What-nots
that are hung thereon. For change,
one might have merely silver or
golden foil hanging all over it, with
electric lights sending cleaning
colors to play upon it.
These electric lights should, for
safety's sake, have the approval Of
the Underwriters Laboratories. Out
side trees are growing in popularity,
but certainly nothing takes the
place of the living room tree, with
gifts from Santa grouped at the
base.
If one lives in the country,
wreaths of ground pine, cedar, bal
sam, hemlock, spruce. lockwood,
laurel and other green's may take
the place of bought holly wreaths.
Children love to help make them.
Festoons of green about the
house. with lighted candles in the
windows, are one of the prettiest
home decorations. Even bedrooms
should have their sprigs of holly or
their bits of evergreen in con-
Spicuous places.
If one lives in town and every
thing must be purchased. it is easier
, and less expensive to use decorative
crepe paper. One may have a most
impressive fireplace, made from diff
ferent kinds of crepe paper.
Table Setting Important
The Christmas table is a most
important consideration for that day
of days. One may purchase linen
damaSk especially for the occasion
and be very gay indeed with lovely
holly patterned linen cloth.
Fine crystal and sterling silver
are two other assets. Starting with
these three. one may build up an
absolutely beautiful table. Lacking
linen, crepe paper makes a stunning
cloth.
Ones centerpiece should conform
to the tables shape. Tiny Christ
mas trees, holly baskets, Santa
Clauses, silver stars, reindeer or any
other Christmas design can be
adapted to the tables use.
One very fascinating centerpiece
is a sleigh, with Santa in it, in the
shape of q doll and the reindeer in
front. Gifts may trail in the back,
to balance it, for his sleigh may run
over with favorS.
