A COOL drink in the new glass
n ware. a wicker chair and
friend to talk to-now there's a
summer sport for you.
Most chilled beverages are both
food and drink. Fruit juices give
vitamins. cream in iced coffee and
other drinks gives nourishment.
and sugar is a good form Of con-
centrated energy needed as much
during outdoor summer activity
as in winter.
So you can sesge these beverages
instead Of the more troublesome aft
ernoon tea. Pass crackers or small
fluffy cakes.
The shops shine with the love-
illness Of new beverage accessories.
All the new glasses are easy to
hold. Stemned glasses are out
for a time. at least.
Glasses Are Barrel-Shaped
The new ones tend to be barrel
shaped, running down to a square
or round base Of matching or con-
trasting color. Some are startling
with penciled paralleied bands OF
gold. many have monograms in mod
ern design etched on them, others
are hecked in pale colors.
Imagine golden ginger ale, april
cot syrup and sprig Of fresh mint
in one OF these generous sized
glasses, musical with the clink Of
ice cubes with a green maraschino
cherry frozen inside.
The heavy Mexican glassware of
greenish blue holds its popularity,
just making you thirsty for an
orange fzz. interesting with slices of
fresh lime. And. OF course, iced
coffee suggests the tall crystal
glasses.
Light and Playful
Modern glassware IL as light and
playful as summer breeZes.- One
speciality shop has crystal bees with
spun glass wings to alight on the
glass dish of sandwiches or tiny tea
cakes made fluffy and irresistible
with special cake flour. Lemon picks
of spun glass. with a bold red roos-
ter perching on top. add humor to
the porch party. too. Ice tubs, with
funny little hands, are in the sum-
mer fashion show. also. Piled with
ice cubes of different colors. they
make you forget the hot sun.
Another novelty is the round bev-
erage tray of ebony glass. with in
dsntations for six pale green or
delicate pink glasses. A black bar
rises up from the center with a ring
on top to carry it by.
St-aws Made Of Glass
Plain ebony glass "straws' COM
plete this smart thirst accessory.
For the bridge players there is
new table tray to fit on the edge
of the table Made of mandarin
red, willow green or ebony enameled
metal, each one holds two glasses
on a level with the table, keeping
them out of danger when some one
trumps your ace.
Many stores offer giddy paper
napkins to the ceremony of summer
refreShment. as well as all manner
, Of gay and inexpensive glasses.
= Some happy soul has cut discs of
absorbent paper in pastel colors,
embossed them with flowers and Of
fered them to us to place under the
glasses to save our tables.
That good inventor deserves a tall
ruby glass filed with the syrup of
black cherries, lemon juice. pale
ginger ale and suspicion of Bit
