For a trifle basket may be pur-
chaSed-small discarded jars may
be filled with an assortment Of
jellies-and packed attractively
nested in red and green celophane
with perky red bow on the bas-

and maple syrup make good COM
panions to such an assortment.

parafin drop sprig of pine and

Delicious
Very inexpensive crockery cooky
jars filled with homemade sug-
ared tea cakes are much appre.
ciated by the business woman,
who has neither time nor equip.
ment for making them.
Include some cookies busted
with red granulated sugar and
dotted with green candied lime
peel to give that Christmas air.
Cooky jars may also be used
as containers for butter toasted
pecans or Drowned almonds.
The secret of success in brown

grade of butter used.

addition to any Of these Christ

Beauty
By DONNA GRACE

The beginning Of every social
season brings more or less timid
showing of hair ornaments.
There we're the coronetS, Of
course. We always have them,
but other styles usually consisted
Of a few jeweled combs and some
rather nondescript bands. They
seemed to be more than enough,
however, as only few wore them.
Some of the very young girls
wore bands of metal or ribbon and
the more mature young ladies or
matrons might affect the regal
coronet for an occasion such as
grand opera, but until this season
we could get along nicely without
them.
AS far as last spring there were
a few smart and unusual little or
namentS appearing here and there
that we knew would certainly tend
to establish the present vogue for
this flattering accessory.
The first were some we saw in
Paris that were for beach wear.
They were flowers made Of colored
raffia and fastened to a thin rub
ber to match the hair. This style
became so popular that it has
been used for all kinds of natural
flowers and jewels.

I trust that you have completed
your Christmas shopping, but, If
you had planned to turn the
kitchen into Santa's workshop
and exhibit your culinary skill In
some of your gifts, you will want
to set aside at least one day for
this endeavor.
In carrying out your Christmas
from the kitchen, jelly making is,
Of course, an item that has posi-

Steamed puddings also develop a
richer flavor on standing if Spe-
cial precaution is made TO keep
them moist and cool.
These, nicely wrapped in waxed
paper and cellophane, with a little
mug of homemade hard sauce,
make welcome gifts for those who
have been reared in homes where
rich puddings have been served
during past holiday seasons.

SeekRefuge
In Trying
Time
By BEATRICE FAIRFAX

A universal riddle-why do
boys and girls so frequently
begin their love lives by be-
coming fascinated with women
and men old enough to be their
parents?
The answer is very simple,
but worried parents, who write
to this column about these
strange fancies of their chill
dren, completely overlook this
simple reason:
Older people are easier and more
comfortable to get along with.
They lack the gaucherie Of the
very young. They know what to
talk about. Those agon izing
pauses in conversation, when no
one knows what to do or say
next, are not for them.
The fascination of the mature
for the young is like the comfort
of a worn shoe. They fit without
uncomfortable pressure.
Please don't think that haven't
heard all about "fixation" fadS,
which, thank Heaven, were more
popular as food for discussion a
few years ago than they are to-
day.
The real reason that boys and
girls fall in love with older men
and women is that these more ma
ture persons have mastered the
art Of reducing stress and strain,
and not because they resemble
mothers and fathers.
On the Rebound
A dash of old-fashioned horse
sense will show you that a nor
NAL boy or girl is glad enough to
get away from home, without the
incentive of hunting up someone
who strongly suggests mama or
papa. "Fixaion," as an explana-
ton, is a bit old-fashioned today
There is no introduction to the
tender passion like youth and
beauty, but these two qualities
often fail to hold the interest of
adoleScents, after they have once
aroused it.
Two young creatures who are
emotionally attracted to each
other are apt to be so sensitive, so
shy, so confused that they do all
the wrong things. Their feelings
get hurt-and they meet on the
street and hardly exchange a
greeting.
Each wishes, beyond the power
Of words to express, to make
tremendous impression on the
other-but they lack the art.
The very force Of this urge robS
them of the ability to take the
situation in hand. Time drags.
The atmosphere is heavy, and
each feels that he or she has been
a complete "fop." The torture
becomes unendurable, and they
drift apart.
The boy may manage hello"
the next time they meet, but the
girl, feeling herself deSpiSed, gets
a tremendous kick out of sailing
by with her nose in the air.
Seeks Comfort
It is then that the older man or
woman looms as refuge.
Perhaps the "heartbroken"
young creature may go to this
older person as a confidante, and
find talking out his or her troubles
so comforting that he or she will
return after the troubles have
folded up.
OF course, what young people
fail to realize is that all this get
ting mad" not speaking, and
writing hateful letters to each
other, is just a perverSe way Of
making love.
And it means, too, that the
"'dew is still on the rose"-that
these young people, in spite of all
the cenSure flung at modern
youth, are still artless, guileless,
and innocent.
They are so untainted by world
1y contracts as not to know the
moves Of the game.
This lovely quality in youth has
been the theme Of poets and
painters from the dawn of art.

Kingsbury Street Youth Accused of Passing
 Fraudulent Checks

Waiving examination. Linwood Sears, IS, of "A Kingsbury street was bound over to the next term of the superior court when he was arraigned before Judge John F. McGrath in city court to-day. Bonds of $500 were fixed for his release. They were not furnished. He is accused of passing about $100 worth of fraudulent checks in this city and Thomaston yester- day. He was arrested in Torring- ton at request of Detective John Calvin, who investigated the cases. The detective went to Waterville where some of the checks were passed and learned tn man had gon to Thomaston. Arriving in the Clock City he discovered that ad- ditional cheeks had been passed there. Getting in touch with Off, ficer James Ryan in Thomaston, the local detective learned that the man answering the description of the check passer had boarded a bus for Torrington.
 Driving to Torrington, they ar- rested the youth as he was wait ing to board a bus for Canaan. He was brought back to Waterbury and lodged in the police station for the night. The checks said to be passed by the accused, averaged from $6 to $50 in value.

Authorities of the towns of Hundsaugen, Weroth and Oberhausen announced the dole would be withheld from any who bought from or associated with Jews. The town council of Opladen voted to withhold municipal con- tracts from any who associated with Jews. to forbid the sale of public lands to Jews and to award city business only to Nazis.

 the distributors in the city today is 40 cents per cake. A cake weighs 325 pounds. The Southern New England Ice company proposed a raise to 60 cents per cake. This plan, if carried out, would result in added costs to the consumers. Refused to Raise
 Nicola Russo of the Reliable Coal and Ice company declared to- day that he refused to raise the price of his ice. Carl Linde of the Waterbury Pure Ice company stated that he was considering the Southern New England Ice com pany's proposal but that he had not made the increase suggested be- cause the Reliable Coal and Ice company had not come in on the plan.
 MT. Linde admitted he knew of the subsequent slash in the price of ice charged by the Southern New England company to some distributors. Asked if he was plan ming to slash his price, also, MT. Linde declared that he would not. Forty cents a cake Is the lowest possible figure that could be charg- ed, MT. Linde said.
 Partial Toward Increase
 William Thurston, manager of the Southern New England com pany, was not available when call ed today. MT. Linde, who is par. tial towards the price increase. stated that none of his customers had been given price slashes by the Southern New England company. However, he said, some distribu- tors who usually buy from the Re- liable Ice and Coal company have been offered lower prices by the Southern New England concern.
 The war on the price of ice among the three wholesalers prom ises to be bitter one, judging from accounts and householders are watching to see if the South ern New England company can subsequently, force the proposed increase in the cost of ice.

DAVIS CUP TEAM
 ARRIVES HOME

New York, Aug. S-(UP)- America's unsuccessful Davis Cup team returned today from England aboard the liner Manhattan with no alibi for it's crushing defeat by England in the challenge round. "Our players aren't good enough to beat England yet and that's about the whole story" said Joseph Wear, Philadelphia, non-playinG captain. Wear said the chief fault in Americas eight successive fall ures to wni back the Davis Cup was, in his opinion, the inability of the officials to approximate the players. "The best players are not always used." said Wear.
 Wear said he had no regrets about failing to use Sidney B. Wood, Jr., New York, in the chal- lenge round instead of Winner AL lison, ustin, Tex, veteran. Wood was highly cratic and told me so.' said Wear. What's more Harry Hillman, our trainer, said Wood wasn't in the best physical condi- tion." Allison denied that he was through with Davis Cup competi- tion as reported in England, but admitted he was probably through as a singles player and might have to confine his future play to doubles.

HOLDING CO.LAW MAY BE PASSED THIS SESSION
Progress Has Been Made in That DirectiOn--LObby
 Probe Is Delayed

Washington, Aug. S.--(UP)- Administration hopes for enact ment of utility holding company legislation this session were strengthened to-day by reports of ''substantial progress by confcrees working on the measure.
 Both lobby Investigating com mittees marked time pending ap- pearance of the elusive Howard c. Hopson, missing Associated Gas & Electric Go. head. Numerous tips" have indicated he is in or near Washington.
 House and senate ,conferees on the deadlocked Wheeler -Rayburn bill were cheered by progress made during the first day of real work on the measure since it was sent to conference more than q month ago. Death Sentence Is Block A number of minor amendments meeting. The so-called "death sentence" for unnecessary" hold ing companies remained the great est stumbling block to agreement. Conferees said it would be left un- til the last.
 Chairman Burton K. Wheeler of the senate conferees called upon the house group to show it's good faith" toward a bill with teeth in it when he yielded to house de- mands that Benjadmin Cohen, PWA lawyer, be excluded from tho conference room. The house lobby Investigating committee had planned to resume it's hearing to-day by summoning Wendell Wilkie of Commonwealth & Southern Power to testify but postponed the hearing because the rules committee, conducting the inquiry, had more pressing busi- ness.
 The senate committee concluded a stormy session yesterday while ders of Chairman John J. O'Con-
 nor, made a foray into an un- named town somewhere in Mary
 land' in search for Hopson. Hurley Sparring Match Former Secretary of War Pat
 rick J. Hurley, to whose Lees
 burg, Va, home investigators made a hurried trip the day before, ap- peared before the senate investi- gating group and spared verbally with committeeman for more than an hour.
 Hurley told the committee he and his firm were paid total of $100,000 in the past year by the Associated Gas & Electric Co.,. which already has been disclosed as spending approximately $S00,- 900 in fighting the utility holding company bill. He denied he is em- ployed as Hopson's attorney.
 Joseph P. Tumulty, attorney who served as secretary to Presi- dent Woodrow Wilson, told the committee he received total of $33,500 from the American Wa terworks, the Commonwealth and Southern, the Public Service Co.,, of New Jersey, and the Cities Ser vice.
 Chairman Hugo Black, d., Ala, disclosed that utilities interests bore the cost of all but three of 14,7S2 telegrams from 10 cities sent to congressman urging opposi- ton to the Wheeler -Rayburn bill. He had asked heads of telegraph companies in 50 cities to submit reports on the number of tele- grams sent and who paid for them.
