Last Years Dresses
May Be Made Over

The only really satisfactory thing to
do with last seasons clothes is to send
them all packing TO the nearest rum
mage sale. This seasons clothes have
made such a complete break with the
past that one might as well try to feel
up to date in a dress of 1920 as In one
of 1929. But to discard everything that
has not been bought within the past
few months would be out Of the ques-
ton with most of us.
Certainly there Is no chance that
short skirts will return to favor within
the next few seasons, and the low waist
line Is even more definitely thing OF
the past. Certainly you cannot wear
the old dresses as they are, and If there
is no simple, obvious way of lengthening
the skirt and raising the walstline-
what then?
Simply this: Rip them up and make
them over. That Is what women used
to do in the good old days when fash
ions We're more capriciouS than they
have been within the past few years,
and 1t is precisely what many women
are doing this season. What makes
this doubly trying nowadays is that 1t
Is almost impoSsibly difiicult to secure
the services of an ingenious, tnexpen-
sive little dressmaker who will help you
with the task.
But we have at least this advantage
that many Of the new dresses are de-
liberately made from two sorts of mate
rial And when we exc out old mate
rial thus salvaged with few yards of
new material we need have no mis-
givingS.
The present fashion for separate
blouses worn with skirts of contrasting
material also helps. If you cannot
make any other use of the material in
last seasons dress, you can at least
make it into a separate blouse. With q
very little material you may make a
gilet or sleeveless blouse, so convenient
to wear under q jacket suit. With q
little more material, tuck-in blouse,
possibly with elbow sleeves; while, II
you have still more material, you may
make an overblouSe extending to the
hips.

Remedying Defects of Chin

contour and the condition of the over
living skin The chin itself can be
rounded and softened by massage to pre-
vent ugly lines around the mouth. ana
folds underneath that will develop into
double chin later on.
All habits that originate in acquired
faulty contour must be corrected, and
nothing seems so hopeless as overcom-
ing a fixed habit. Emphasizing ones
speech with a downward thrust OF the
chin, as in disapproval, depressing the
chin instead of holding it up and rea-
sonably forward, are habits sure to
break down the soft tissues, or in the
obese to form double and even triple
chin in later years.
Vigorous massage to break up the
superintendent tissue, with alternate
applications of heat and cold. the latter
in the form of ice rubbed into the parts,
is extremely efficacious.
The chin belt is recommended as a
support when the tissues are relaxed
1t also acts as a reminder that the chin
must be held up and carried forward
The rubber chin belt induces heat and
perspiration and acts as reducing
agent.
The chin that is composed mainly of
fatty tissue can be wonderfully re-
modelled and reconstructed by means OF

type of chin, the soft, globose chin OF
infancy and immature development is
usually small round and receding. IN
less markedly deformed-in which case
bone grating must be resorted to-very
little can be accomplished by other
means.
The framework of the chin is COM
posed of bone, and a we'll developed
chin should develop fair share of this
material. The three systems, the body,
the muscular. and the vegetative, assist
in forming this feature. Many chins
that are double" possess a long and
bony foundation. In these instances
cosmetic treatments yield very satisfac-
tory results.
The muscles Of the chin are inserted
into the lower jaw and are attached to
the structures above. Therefore, pres

Vegetable Salads.

Lemon jelly is a good foundation for
many vegetable salads. A good tomato
jelly is made by stewing two or three
ripe. red tomatoes until a thick liquid
results, and straining that through a
fine wire sieve-but not through cheese
cloth, as that keeps out the eolor-inte
lemon jelly that is still liquid. When
it is cool 1t may be poured into ring
mold, into individual molds or into a
square pan. If in the square pan, 1t is
cut in even sized blocks when 1T is
ready to serve.
Diced cucumbers are delicious in this
tomato jelly. Mixed fresh cooked vege-
tables also are good in this lemon-to-
mato jelly. A mixture of either fresh
green peas and diced carrots or string
beans and picked beets Is specially
good. These jellied vegetable SALADS
should be served on lettuce. and are
usually preferred with mayonnaise
dressing, though some persons prefer
French dressina.

Use of Articles
AS Gifts or Brides

There are some parents who seem to
think that there Ii sort of moral
weakness in giving presents to their
children, save at Christmas and on
birthdays. Sometimes they explain by
saying that to give present out OF sea-
son" establishes a precedent" They
even frown upon indulgent relatives
who never come to pay visit without
bringing some little toy or box OF
sweets.
Then there are fathers and mothers
who feel that it is all wrong to give .
present-just as a present. They make
their children work for their toys,
Bobby is promised bicycle If he gets
good marks at school, Jennie Is to have
a new doll carriage II she keeps her
toys picked up for a month, Mary is to
receive a much desired new book II she
helps dress the baby sister every morn
ing. Stanley comes in early from play
for months to set the table for supper
because that has been the price set
upon the new express cart that he
wants.
Perhaps the idea Is a good one. On
the other hand, that, too, may be set
ting a precedent, and Jennie may leave
her toys all over the house, Mary may
neglect baby sister. Bobby may neglect
his studies and Stanley may stoutly
refuse to set the table when there are
no visible rewards in sight.
There are some individuals who even
in early childhood learn the power that
often lies in well timed present. They
know that a bunch of Spring flowers
shyly laid on teachers desk will help
her to overlook the spelling lesson that
has not been learned: and, after all,
there is less of hardship in picking
Spring flowers on Summers day than
sitting indoors over the speller
There are husbands, too, who put
much reliance in the power of well
chosen present They buy the privilege
Of playing golf all day Saturday by
coming home Friday night with a Ave
pound box of candy, or a box of roses.

Types.
BY BETsEY CALLISTER.

1T is as natural for child to hide
away its treasures as it is for a
squirrel to tuck nuts away in hollow
stumps or bury them in the ground.
A good many mothers make the mis-
take of not giving their children definite
places where they may hide things
away. Even the smallest child of a
large family ought to have some sort
of cupboard or chest, bureau drawer or
box where he may put his belongings
and where they will be left without OBJ
vious disturbance from bothersome
groWn-ups.
Doubtless it is necessary for nurse or
mother to make some general sort OF
inspection of childish treasure troves.
Melting milk chocolate or once-tooth-
some bits of cooky might mingle I'M
suspected with the more harmless sort
of treasures and become an attraction
for mice and ants.
The point is, however that children
like privacy of one sort or another, and
that, if you let them have some little
corner of the world for their very own,
they are far more likely to learn to re-
spect and take care of their possessions
than If they must always share shelves
and cupboards with others.
There are some convenient boxes in
some of the shops called tuck boxes
implanted, with padlocks and iron
hinges. These boxes are of the sort
used by English public school boys for
holding their personal possessions and
are sturdy and satisfactory as a hid
ing place for any childs most treas
ured belongings.
Then there are iron-bound and brass
bound treasure chests sold specially for
children. 1t Is quite possible TO imi-
tate one of these by fitting a cover
neatly to we'll made box, fastening
it on with iron hinges, fastening a
paddock at the front and strengthen
ing the corners with iron braces.

ITO those who love beauty of form
l. nothing about the human face is
more regrettable than defects of the
chin, whether congenital or acquired.
The jaws are the bony framework of the
mouth. The most attractive jaw is the
one that is symmetrically curved. When
terminating in an oval chin, it is sig
nificant of normal strength and taste
for art and beauty. The square jaw is
a mark of strength and character
There are many variations from these
types. When the jaw protrudes mark
edly, the beautiful lines of the face are
destroyed.
Disflguring habits which call atten-
ton to the chin spoil the contour of
the whole face. The bony framework
of the chin is of course, dependent
upon that of the lower jaw, and there
fore to large extent it is beyond our
control, But here, too, unpleasant
habits of thrusting out the chin or of
drawing 1t in, and SO forming lines in
the soft tissue at its base, have much
to do with the maturer development of
this very prominent and important fea-
ture.
1t is, after all, not so much question
of a long or short chin or of a broad
or narrow chin as 1t is of the feshy

~ LACK is as much admired and as
- often worn by the well dressed
French woman rs ever-and
H. black aways Is more of favorite
in France than in this country.
White promises to be especially smart
this Summer 1t Is not by departing
from these eolorless tones that the in
fluential French dressmakers have given
the cue for more colorful Summer, but
in breaking away from beige and the
endless list Of allied neutral tones such
as gregg, putty and sand that have pre-
vailed for so many years.
Making the rounds of the well known
dressmakers in the Rue de la Paix and
the Champs ElySees, the American In
Paris Is impressed more by the new col
ors than the new silhouette, which Is,
of course, an older story in France than
In this country, where we have adjusted
ourselves more reluctantly to the raised
waistline and the more closely nodded
contours than they have in France.
These new colors that the French
dressmakers have launched are at the
same time gay and distinguished. They
are fresh without being brilliant, nat
ural without being artleSs. Color COM
binations are more harmonious than
they have been for many seasons and
yet they are not obvious.
* X
Girls blue and blue roi-gray blue and
king blue-are most often seen after
navy blue, which is everywhere accepted
as one Of the seasons smartest hues.
In place of lacquer red and other tones
of q rather panty" sort that have been
in evidence within recent years are fresh
flower petal tones Of rose and red. Vert
jaime and tileuil--yellOw, green and
linden-have been favored during the
Spring and will undoubtedly continue to
DO favored throughout the summer.
Saffron, banana, straw and citron-
which Is, of course, lemon-are the
shades that give yellow an unusually
important place.
All along the line In matters Of dress
one notices signs of q reaction against
extremes of modernism. The new FASH
ions, whatever they are, are modern for
the period when they occur, and no sea-
son can possibly be more modern or less
modern than another.
60 suppose 1t would be absurd to say
~ that fashions today are less modern
than they were yesterday-but one does
notice that In the silhouette of the new
hats and dresses, In the designs Of the
printed materials and In the new e0l-
ers q less self conscious striving to be
modern and q greater willingness to
borrow from the past thantRas appar-
ent In 1929 and 1928.

In colors this striving after novelty

Fair Beauties.

For centuries the ideal of feminine
loneliness was the blonde. The angels
In the Christian calendar, as well as
the goddesses of Roman and Greek
mythology, were all depicted as blue
eyed and light-haired. So a beautiful
woman was known as a fair" woman.
We find repeatedly in old books such
expressions as dark and ugly" fair
haired and beautiful" or dark but
beautiful" and plain in spite of her
light complexion" showing quite clearly
that once upon a time it was rather
difficult for brunette to be rated as of
f1rst-class beauty.
Times have changed. To be beauti-
ful women no longer need be fair.
