Ideas for Parties

No, this isn't news from the
sporting world. We're giving
you a party tip-charades are
in style again The most popu-
lar hosteSSeS are introducing
them at their parties.
Have you a secret passion for
acting-are you fascinated by
guessing games (who iSnt)?
Then you'll love charades. And
you may be sure your guests
will too. This jolly ole COM
bination of make-believe and
guessing game is hard to beat
as a fun-maker.
See what you can do with
the words we've illustrated.
They're "pitchfork" and "runa-
bout" First you act each
syllable. pitch" suggests q
ball game, so have one of your
guests go through the motions
of pitching. Other players can
be fans. When the players
have acted this syllable they
retire. Then they come back
and do the second one-"fork."
This could be an imaginary
restaurant scene, with some.
one dropping a fork, and a
waiter picking it up. Last Of
all, you do the entire word,
'pitchfork," and this, sup
poSedly, can be a farm scene,
with hay being tossed into q
barn.
Now for "runabout!" The

Daytime Versions

Patou used the same sort Of
shirring on daytime dresses, but
in front. At least, all the copies
I've seen in this country had
the Shirring in front. They are
delightful affairs, with the whole
top of the dress fitted by means
of the drapery, including sleeves
and hipline.
Vionnet uses drapery on the
bodice of a gown, but her skirts
are full, which makes quite a
different silhouette from the
Patou and Molyneux gowns,
which are as slender as possible
from the top of the dress to
the floor-length hem.
American adaptations of these
dresses are nearly always in
velvet or heavy satin, though
the originals were of a rather
heavy but fairly sheer silk
crepe, which draped beautifully.
Velvet does too, however, so
that the design seems to lose
nothing by being made in an
other fabric.
One version you will see about
town is of transparent velvet,
shirred from top to below the
hips, with deep v decollatage
both back and front. This dress
has a huge bow of stiffer
velvet, at the waistline in the
back. It's usually in black with
a red how.
The Washington times., 1935-10-22

detail but result is worth the
effort involved.
Recipes are rules; they govern
the laws Of cookery and like
every other lawbreaking, disaster
is the result when not obeyed.
For instance if a recipe calls for
level teaspoon Of salt, it means
a level teaSpoon-not a heaped-
up tablespoon.
To change the amount of
flour, soda, baking powder or
any given Ingredient will, natur-
ally, change the recipe and ruin
what you are making.
So 1t follows that one must
measure accurately for success.
Quite inexpensive sets of measur-
ing cups and spoons may be
obtained and will be a great
comfort to ones cooking frame
Of mind.
RESULTS
When the proportions are
changed you will find that, for
example:
Too much flour will make a
cake that is dry and crumbly,
bread solid and heavy, sauces
thick and paSty.
Too much fat will make cakes
oily and may cause them to fall.
1t will make grease soaked
doughnutS and greasy gravieS.
Too much sugar will make
a cake with a hard crust, or a
sticky cake. It will make soft,
sticky jelly.
Too much liquid will make a
cake that will fall easily.
Too much soda gives a bad
taste and color to breads and
cakes.
The above could be added to
at great length but the idea is
that to be a successful cook a
guide should be followed and
that guide is a reliable recipe.
Tnere are some inspired
cooks, those who add a dash
here and a dash there of some
thing, that makes a masterpiece
of a simple diSh-for example
I know a splendid cook who
adds a few spoons of sherry to
whipped cream for flavoring
when it is to be eaten on a fig
or date pudding instead of the
usual vanilla. The improvement
is very noticeable. 1t has a
tantalizing taste and is diff.
ferent.
However one has to have
cooked some little time in order
to acquire the knack of doing
things and it is not for newer
and less discriminating cooks to
try.
The Washington times., 1935-10-22

first scene must suggest run
ming, but if you want to be
foxy, run" could be a run in
a stocking. AS for about"
our illustration suggests "a
bout" in a boxing match. The
complete word can be pre-
Sented by the players running
around various objects in the

make it difficult, remember

were called "runaboutS "
Another way of doing cha

Mixing Scents
Is An Art
By DONNA GRACE

So many Of my readers seem
to have the idea that with the
right formulas they can make
any perfume at home. Occa-
sionally I give the formula for
certain perfumes, but I gener.
ally try to discourage any at
tempt to mix them.
The making of perfume is an
art, or at least a very scientific
operation that should not be
experimental with unless one
has a thorough understanding
Of the subject.
Beginning with the flowers
and essential oils up to the fin.
ished product, it requires a
thorough knowledge of chemis-
try and blending of aromas.
Some of those unusual and
subtle perfumes have been
worked with for months and
longer before they are ready to
pass on to the public.
I have in mind one Of the
very high-priced scents that was
so popular a few years ago and
still is. It was the work Of
years, so the manufacturers
representative told me, to blend
these oils and other ingredients
to such perfection.
With some flowers it is neces-
sary to let them stand in solu-
ton for six months before they
are ready to mix. A certain
temperature and moisture must
be maintained, frequent filter
ing is necessary, and with all a
very painStaking procedure far
too expensive to experiment
with.
Besides, the expert chemists
have found a way to produce
nearly all of the scents in the
laboratory now without the use
of floral extracts.
I know how every woman
loves to make and create some
concoction of her own, and
there are many simple beauty
aids that can be mixed at home,
but there is no economy in max
ing substitutes for the better
grades of cosmetics.

Etiquette
to Make
Introduction

ByMRS.CORNELIUS BEECKMAN
"Dear Mrs. Beeckman:
''PIease let me know If it is
correct to introduce a friend to
another while riding on q bus or
street car when you happen to
sit near them? "W."
We should definitely lean to
the side of not making introduc-
tions when the meeting is so
casual as this. Such introduc-
tionS usually seem unnecessary,
and usually seem forced and
pointleSs.
But, on the other hand, I
realize that many people feel
hurt" or disregarded when a
friend with them meets another
friend and doesn't make an in
PRODUCTION. It's a ridiculous
point Of view to take, but it is
true, nevertheless, and there is
always a quandary as to whether
or not the friend with whom we
are has this point of view. But
usually if we make out greet
ing to the other person brief,
this introduction needn't be
made.
In Europe, where they take
introductionS far more impor-
tantly than we do, an introduc-
ton made in a casual meeting
of this kind is considered dis
tinctly ill-bred, and one doesn't
expect such an introduction.
Indeed it is taken for granted
that it won't be made.

Of Metals Too

Metals are making these
gowns too. And some lovely
ones of very heavy satin are
appearing. There are also gowns
of Egyptian origin, especially
lovely in white satin, slim and
sheath-like, the fulness caught
at the waistline and hanging
straight, the hips perfectly slim,
and the skirt floor length all
around. OF course it takes a
good figure with slim hips, to
wear these gowns.
In a few days, or sooner, we
will have some photographs of
these new type gowns, so that
you can see just exactly what
they are like, if you aren't
familiar with them already.

KNOW uOCI1uR Oh' SAe"UehhS
about (Which is true of
thought, and the building up
of new tiSSue-we find that the
body is merely an engine for
the production of energy.
The energy arises from the
combustion of food products,
just as the energy of an auto
mobile arises from the combus-
ton Of gasoline.
By.Products
And, as in any engine, the
chemical conversion of one form
of energy into another results
in the formation of certain by.
products. Thus in the auto
mobile, the chemical by-products
of the combustion of gasoline
come out of the exhaustion
one thing, the deadly carbon
monoxide gas.
Just what the nature of these
chemical processes in the human
body are, we will consider in the
article this week on the chem.
istry Of exercise.
There is, however, another
by-product of the work of an
energy machine, and that is
heat.
The combustion Of food-that
is, its chemical union with oxy.
gen goes on continuously in the
body, and by a delicate regular
tory mechanism keeps the body
at an even temperature Of about
1925 F.
All of the processes both the
building up Of heaG and its dis.
Sipation by the body, and the
chemical interchanges of vari-
Gus kinds-which go to make up
the machinery of the body, are
called "metabolism.' The sum
of all of them is called basal
metabolism," and this can be
eaSiy measured.
MetabOlism
The first experiments in try.
ing to measure basal metabol-
ism took the amount of heat an
animal gave off as a standard.
The animal-a cat or guinea pig
was placed in a vessel sur.
rounded by ice. After a GER
tain length of time the amount
of ice that had melted was
measured; as the number of
calories required to heat a given
amount of ice is well known, it
was easy to calculate the amount
of heat given off by the animal.
More modern instruments
have improved on this old ice
calorimeter and use the amount
Of oxygen consumed as the
measuring rod of basal metab-
oliSm is very useful in diagno-
sis in certain diseases; it is
known that certain forms of
goiter raise the basal metabo-
lie rate very greatly.
