Cooking ahead is wise idea on
such an occasion. Meats such as
ham and roasts, rice, salad mate
rials can all be prepared ahead of
time and then served quickly.
Many of the favorite canned
foods can be used for such menus.
Baked beans that are ready to
serve can be heated in the casse-
role with molasses, green pepper,
and onion. This makes a filling
and popular main dish for the
dinner.

For Fresh Air Fiends

ENOR fresh air fiends-and
Il for all people who object
to odors from cooking or to a
close-smelling room, and for
those who like a bit Of fra
GRANGE around about, there
are new room sprays, and
humidifiers. They kill all
odors, and impart in their
place a delicate fragrance of
one sort or another-and there
are many fragrances. There
are humidifiers for closets,
small ones. There are good
sized electric humidifiers for
larger rooms, and then you
may spray the fresheners from
a small spray. The odors are
pine, rose, violet, lilac, fresh
air." oriental "a nice blend Of
oriental scents) and lavendar.
They're not too strong-just
enough to give you a nice
Gift" and they are priced 75c
and $1.25 for large bottles, ac-
cording to size. The electric
humidifier is $4.95, and each
type humidifier can be used
with all sprays, Of course.
This humidifier is said to
purify the air. Even the little
sprays do that. They are in
expensive, and do not use
much fluid, so that a bottle
will last a long time. This
whole idea is so new, so diff
ferent that you should go
downtown and investigate, for
it's impossible to give you an
idea of the practical and de-
lightful features in mere words.

SHOWER r. OR BRIDE

Dear Mrs. BeeCkman:
IF one or more showers are
given for a bride-tO-be, is it neces-
sary for the bride-tO-be to know
all the girls invited, or may
strangers be invited without con-
sulting the bride-tO-be? "S."
To invite to a bridal shower
people who don't know the bride
elect is inconsistent with the fun
damental idea of a bridal shower.
The idea of such a shower is, or
should be, the close friends Of the
bride gather to give her a party
to honor the occasion Of her COM
ing marriage, and to bring her
gifts appropriate to her new home.
Now it's taking a good deal for
granted-too much, I think-to
ask strangers to bring gifts for a
bride they don't know. Also, It
would, I think, take something
away from the intimately friendly
spirit of the party. And certainly
if you plan to invite guests who
are not known to the bride-elect,
you should first consult her about
these invitations.

day diet, and we would like to know
how many have followed it and
just how much weight you lost.
We know you are feeling better
for this discipline, and now since
you have done SO well, there is no
reason why you cannot go on with
light diet until you are down to
the normal weight.
The foods you have had in this
holiday diet viii not put on weight,
and you may continue and repeat
the diet If you are very much over
weight, or send for my reducing
diet and go on with that until you
are just right.
1t takes some willpower to cut
off the savory fat from the steaks
and roast beef, but a nice slender
figure and clear skin will be your
reward now.
Here is the diet for the tenth
day:

water to fill glass

hazel eyes and bronze hair, and
you will find the natural tones of
lipstick and rouge will be the best
for you. You could wear the bril-

dark, but the natural shades look
well with hazel eyes. 1t is possible
to wear a darker or more brilliant

countries adjacent to their homeland,
in Cuba, British Honduras and Mex
leo. Many of them, however, are in
the United States and few have
gone to Europe.
Iron-clad censorship has been set
up over the Honduran press, Pizzati
said and virtually all the newspapers
have been closed up or taken over
by the government.
Il hope to be able to 60 back to
establish another newspaper and
preach true liberty to the people Of
Honduras" Pizzati said. Il stand for
the establishment Of national
press, with real freedom of speech
and political thought. I believe that
all my countrymen should have the
right to vote and participate in their
government. This right is denied them
today"
Pizzati was editor and publisher of
e. Pals and El Golpe, formerly lead
ing newspapers in La Ceiba. Both
have been closed because of fiery edi-
torial opposition to the Andino ad-
ministration. Pizzati now is engaged
in survey of American newspapers
on behalf Of the National Press Asso-
citation of Honduras, which is working
for the establishment of free press
In that country.
The exiled editor, who is only 25.
said he recognizes in President Andino
''many fine qualities" but that he is
strongly opposed to his principles of
government and political ideals.
Pizzau fled from Honduras nine
months ago, entering the United
States through New Orleans. He has
visited many newspapers in the South
ern States and is serving as a special
correspondent for La Traduccion. a
Spanish language paper at Tampa,
and for La PrenSa.
He is in Washington for an indefi-
mite stay and is the guest of Mr.. and
Mrs. Elliott Marsden. Pizzati is a
painter by hobby, and Mr. Marsden, a
geologist, is a friend Of the editors

W.P.A.JOB RIGHTS
Figures Reveal Number 0S.

Nearly 1000 persons voluntarily have
given up their right to jobs under the

gram here since early March, osten-
sibly to return 20 private employment,
according to figures released yesterday
by the District w. p. A. ONCE.
The case" load of the w. p. A., It
therefore would appear, has been re-
duced by nearly IS per cent within
the past three months, since there
we're nearly 10000 employable persons
listed as eligible for w. p A. jobs early
in March. Yesterday, it was said,
there were about 10000 eligibles re-
naming on the list.
District officials attributed the re-
duction almost entirely to improve
ment on the employment situation in
private industry and pointed especially
to the burst Of construction work,
which started with the return of good
weather.
There we're II 1854 persons at work
during the past week on w. P. A.
projects here, including those assigned
to Federal as well as District gov
eminent units, the report stated. Early
last March the number actually then
assigned to jobs from the list of ell
gible persons on the w. p A. rolls was
12,800.
The w. p A. roll will be reduced by
at least 300 more before the end of
next month, under orders from Fed
eral relief officials. The number Of
employables on the District w. P. A.
must be reduced to $500 by June 30.

LOS ANGELES, May 23.-An unob-
trusive, middle-aged little man who
moved quietly through this city's
financial districts, opened rs bank
accounts aggregating $4,000 in two
days and then vanished, mystified
bankers and detectives said today.
Accounts were opened Monday and
Tuesday in virtually every downtown
bank under the name Of Donald Berg
of st. Louis. Wednesday night the
depositor left the hotel where he
had been staying. Nothing has been
heard from him since.
Detective Agency Called in.
The American Bankers Association
called on the Burns Detective Agency
to investigate the possibility the man
may have met foul play. The aid of
the Department of Justice also was
enlisted.
Bank tellers said he usually ap-
peared with two suit cases. from
which he would produce 81 900 bill
and two $l00 bills. Berg was de-
scribed as evasive on questions as to
his home address or the names of his
relatives.
There certainly is nothing. wrong
about opening Is bank accounts, but
there is reason to fear this man and
his money may be the victims of foul
play" said a Burns detective.
Nom Existent Bank Reference.
In opening the first account here
the man gave as reference an account
in an out-of-town bank which proved
to be non-existent, said the detec-
tive. In the "a other accounts opened
in rapid succession the first Los An
geles account was cited.
The Burns Detective Agency said It
could find no trace in st. Louis Of
any one by the name of Donald
