Part two of the F. H. A. exhibit will
be model town of "a one-story houses

tectural designs and sketches were ex-
ecuted by the American Institute Of
Architects, Southern California Chap
ter and they illustrate the best in
Spanish, French, italian, English and
other types of residential architecture.
There will be several steel houses and
a group of the modern type. Use of
various materials, including wood sid
ing, shingles, stucco, brick, concrete
and tile, will be illustrated. Suggested
floor plans for all the houses will be
available for study and F. H. A. men
will be on hand to explain to visitors
how they can get better housing loans
of sums up to $4,000, and how they
will help recovery by building and i'm
proving now.
Most of the Governments exhibits
will be contained in the Federal Build

as a permanent addition to Balboa
Park, where the fair grounds is located.

Cherry Tart with "PiLadelpi1" Cream Cheese Pastry

 For pie-crust that would charm a whole pie-full of cher ries right off the tree-"Old Eng lish" pastry is the thing. Any fresh fruit pie which boasts as its foun- dation faky crust made with this particular type of cheese is used as part of the shortening. It lends an indescribable piquancy to many pies-preferably those noble fruit pies which should constitute the American housewife's official welcome to spring.
 Little fruit tarts--of the sort that any knave would be excused for stealing-should be pade with "Philadelphia" Cream Cheese as their presiding genius. A delect- abel combination is heart-shaped philadelphia" pastry tartlets baked to a slight crispness, spread

endives and water cress also be- long in the mixture which you may arrange on the salad plate in nest or ring formation. In the center place a wheel of thinly sliced tomato, if desired. Serve with a plain lemon juice and oil dressing seasoned with salt and prepper and perhaps a little pinch of sugar to mellow the acidity of the lemon juice. Finely shredded red and white cabbage mixed with shredded spring onions and green pepper makes combination that is both tasty and satisfying. Serve it with broiled chops or fish and baked or creamed potatoes, on q night when there is a substantial dessert-perhaps strawberry or banana shortcake. You will not find it necessary to prepare Q cooked green vegetable.
 Those strange looking plants which seem to be a cross between a turnip and bunch of celery are known as celeriac excellent in salads. I give you this recipe in which celeriac is used with fresh tomatoes and nuts:

 Mix with finely shredded celeriac and lettuce some dice of fresh to- mato meat and sliced brazil nuts. Add a little whipped cream to plain tomato sauce and use as a dressing for this salad which should be arranged in cups of crisp lettuce leaves.

"The Knave of Hearts,
 He stole the tarts-" And alas! he stands convicted along with that bold thief, Taffy the Welsh man.
 But no knave of fable or fact could be blamed for that. Tarts, as invented by the Queen of Hearts herself and as improved upon by modern ingenuity, were ever the most tempting tid-bits. If that ancient pastry was construct ed along the alluring lines of the alluring lines of the newest spring time mode in little cakes = the Knave only showed his good taste!
 The lightest-fingered pastry cooks these days are turning few tricks with cheese. Cheese of just the right piquancy or mildness, depending upon the nature of the tart, may be added to pastry with remarkably tempting results. It's another-and exciting use for that time -honored, and almost inex- haustible foodstuff, cheese! Two contrasting-but equally delicious

BarbeCned Steak and A London BrOil
By CHLOE JANfIsON

For the night when you want to cook quick dinner that will nev- ertheless please the man tremen- dously, select one or the other of these methods for preparing good cut of sirloin or trump steak:
 Barbecued Sirloin
 Mix l teaspoon salt, l teaspoon sugar, 1k teaspoon pepper and pa- prika, 1 tablespoon dry mustard and cream with tablespoons of butter. Rub well over all surfaces of a thick sirloin cut 2 to inches thick. Place the steak on broiling rack over a dripping pan and cook in hot oven, basting frequently with the following sauce: table, spoon Worcestershire sauce, 2 ta- blespoons olive oil, 1 tablespoon catsup, l teaspoon sugar and 1 tea spoon salt, well blended. The steak should be placed about inch from the flame until well scared, then finished in milder heat.
 London Broil
 Have a trump or roundsteak cut 1H inches thick and rub over it with the cut side of a bud of gar- lie. Mix 1 teaspoon of salt, A tea
 
 spoon pepper and l teaspoon of sugar and rub this into the steak. Heat an iron skillet until smoking hot, brush the skillet with fat from the meat, place the steak in the pan and cook it, turning several times. Remove to a hot platter, spread with butter into which 1 teaspoon of finely minced parsley has been creamed. Serve at once, with baked or escalloped potatoes. With steak the most delicious green vegetable probably is steam ed broccoli with butter or Hol- landaise sauce; a garniture of grill ed tomatoes or muchhrooms adds tremendously to the steaks ap- peal, but is not at all necessary, from the mans viewpoint.

He looked all about in the trees and
on the snow below Suddenly he
hastily withdrew his head inside that
hole. $50 that's i'll" he exclaimed
under his breath. Another of the

visit that had almost forgotten that

der Pekan left in hurry. Thank
goodness Glutton isn't a fast traveller,
and can't follow me through the tree
tops. Now that Pekan has gone I'll
get out Of here. I would rather be
outside than in, with Glutton about"
So, making sure that Pekan really
was out Of the way, Spite came out
and started off in the opposite direc-
ton from that taken by Pekan. He
kept to the trees as far as he could,
travelling after the way Of a squirrel.
Only when he had to did he come
down to the ground. And then he
bounded across TO the next tree at his
best speed. He knew that he was too
swift to be caught by that big cousin
unless cornered or taken by surprise,
but so great was his fear that Glutton
might do one Of these things that he
wasted no time in getting away from
that neighborhood.
Meanwhile Glutton the Wolverine,
largest Of the Weasel family, went
about his business. II he saw his
cousin, Pekan the Fisher, leave hur-
riedly through the tree-tops and his
other cousin, Spite the Marten, leave
just as hurriedly in another direction,

ors as a Spring color this year. The
shops are fairly bulging with navy
blue frocks and navy blue felt, taffets
and straw hats to match.
OF course, navy blue Is always a
Spring favorite, but it has not held
so prominent place for the past
few seasons as is predicted for this
coming Spring. This is the sort
of dress you can buy now and be-
gin to enjoy much earlier than
many of the other Spring novelties.
The sturdy, heavy crepes in a great
variety of weaves gives a texture
that is we'll suited to immediate
wear.
TAKE, for instance, a matelasse WIZ
l. a distinctly ribbony cross weave
almost an inch wide. 1t is made with
high neck and a wide band OF tne
material that is brought down in
square at the front, with the corners
turned under-a trick that is noted
on new models. The sleeves are three
quarter, with the widest portion al
the elbow. Bright green, diamond
shaped pin and tied-in belt ornaments
complete this frock.
These new frocks all seem TO have
new details of trimming-new odd
belt buckles and clusters of pendant
cords, covered with the material OF
the dress and knotted. They are
often made of white pique and are
very effective on a dark color. Some
times the covered cords are rolled
up into little discs and made into
banding. outlining the deep raglan
armholes with a narrow pleating at
one side.
Another idea for trimming is shown

shirred yoke, partially covered by a
round collar, and three very stiff col

He didn't look like member Of the

neither does Jimmy Skunk. and he Is
you know. In fact, in shape he might
almost be giant Skunk. And the re-
semblance is increased by his bushy
tail and two bands which begin at the
shoulders and extend along the sides
to meet again near the tail. Instead
of being white these are light chestnut.
The rest of his coat is dark, blackish
brown. In some places he is called

to resemble both Skunk and Bear,
though to the latter he is not related
at all.
