TN DISCUSSING millinery as is
1 and will be, for this spring and
summer, one must speak, for the
most part, in terms of straw, for
the straw hat In its multiple inter-
pretations Is far outselling any 9TH
er type. No matter what sort of
straw, Just so it's straw is ap-
parently the theory being put into
practice.
Fine milans are as important as
rough novelty straws. Formal hats
of sheer lacy bodies are likewise
given promotion and as for the
bakus and the toto panamas, the
panamalaques and such, they are
as exotic and as plentiful as ever.
Straws of glaring high luster
contrast those with no luster at
all. AS for color, straws have
gone riotous. Black and navy
comes first. generally relieved with
white or light blue. Then there's
brown which is the dernier cri for
spring. Emphasis is also placed
on striking contrast, such as white
straw interviewer with black cello
phane, or in tri-color effect as black
white and red, orange, brown and
pale beige, navy, white and gray,
the latter an especial favorite with
smart Parisiennes at the present
moment.
Just as thrilling are the shapes
of the new chapeau. Crowns are
different, being that shallow they
set the hat way back on the head
And brims! Well, what's coming

classic examples of this sort, which
may safely be used with most chill
dren above five or six, but which
make the very young child feel too
keenly. Fears and night terrors are
often traceable to carelessly chosen
stories which brighten and puzzle
children.
Rousing emotions which cannot
be translated into action should be
avoided. The child who hears rum
ors of thieves and robbers is keyed
up to perform like feats.
Nor must we arouse vague wishes
and desires in the child by giving
him the type Of story in which the
hero attains by wishing" alone.
Danger lies in a habit of avoiding
the facts of living. To help the
child meet and settle difficulties
fairly and squarely is our job, rath-
er than to allow a world of phan-
tasy to grow up around him-The

Telling Stories to Children

The first stories which capture
the childs attention are those about

when they were babies, or fan
ciful narratives in which the hero
or heroine bears the child's name.
Stories of what mother did when
she was a little girl never fail to
hold the child's attention.
Interest in himself later gives
place to an interest in other chill
dren and in animals. The child's
delight in watching dog or cat

his delight in hearing about one.

The "Story of Mowgli" (Jungle

1.-THE Dutch Twins" all add to his
knowledge and at the same time
form basis for imaginative play.
Another way in which the child's
horizon may be enlarged is through
stories of the phenomena of ma

the seasons, the stars and the

In choosing story materials for
children there are things to avoid
as well as things to seek. Children
are easily overstimulated and many
stories have to be weeded out on
this account. Stories which make
children shiver with fear, or melt
into tears with compassion are in

Table Talks

Menu for Afternoon Bridge Club
Again Mother Briggs turn to
entertain the bridge club came
around. What to serve was not
such a perplexing problem this
time because Mrs. Briggs had ex-
perimented with an attractive sal
ad which she planned to serve. As
each salad would require several
minutes for preparation, she plan
ned accomplishments which could
be made previously and would take
time at the last minute.
The menu for the bridge party:
Hyacinth Salad
Ham Mullins, Butter
Celery
Orange Milk Sherbet
Butter Cookies
Black Tea-Lemon
The ham mullins were to be made
before the guests arrived and
warmed in the oven before serv-
ing. Tom Jr. was enlisted to
make the orange milk sherbet and
the cookies were to be baked the
day before.
Hyacinth Salad
4 small green peppers
2 pkgs. Philadelphia cream cheese
2 small cucumbsrs
~ cup broken nut meats
Il cup mayonnaise
Rose vegetables coloring
Add nuts and mayonnaise to one
package of the cream cheese. Mix
thoroughly and chill the ice box.
Remove top and seeds from green
peppers and cut each one in half
Peel cucumbers and divide horizon
tally and vertically. Color remain
ing package of cream cheese at
tractive rose shade. Just before
serving stuff green pepper sections
with nut and cheese mixture. Place
open-side-down on plate to make
the pot for the hyacinth. Cut each
cucumber section into four or five
stalks, keeping them joined a half
inch from end. Place colored
cream cheese in pastry bag and
form tiny flowers in shape of a hya-
cinth beginning at the center of the
green pepper pot. With a small
amount of practice skill in making
the flower is acquired. For each
flower, as the cheese comes out of
the tube form a small closed circle
ending with a point in the center.
When the flower is formed spread
the cucumber stalks apart in center
placing uncut end against top Of
green pepper.
