Easy to make and popular, it is
nice to know that making it at
home is comparatively simple. In
fact, a syrup for it can be kept in
automatic refrigerator for days
and glasses made at moments
notice.
The flavor is delightful, it salts
fies the Unsuitable craving for the
cool drink, and also proides nour-
ishment. All of the health-giving
ingredients found in milk are found
in it. This makes it ideal for chill
dren.
In making the syrup, be sure
that the chocolate is not melted at
too high temperature, and for a
real thirst-quenching beverage add
to the cooked syrup a. few drops
of mint.
This recipe makes two cups of
syrup, can be made with cocoa
and used for many chocolate
drinks:
Cocoa Syrup
y cup of cocoa
112 cups of sugar
l cup of cold water
2 teaspoons of vanilla
Dash of salt.
Mix the sugar, salt and cocoa.
Add the water. Cook over low
flame and stir until the sugar is
dissolved and mixture boilS. Boil
3 minutes. Add vanilla. Cool.
Pour in air-tight jar and place in
the refrigerator.
A chocolate milk shake to be
at it's best should be blended in
your favorite cocktail shaker with
Clipped ice.
Chocolate Milk Shake
4 tablespoons cocoa syrup
l glass milk
Meas sure milk in cocktail
shaker, add syrup and Clipped
ice. Shake well. Serve in tall
glasses.
For a drink with creamy ice
bergs, add tablespoons of choco.
late ice cream to each glass.
A more nouriShing beverage is
made with egg. The method of
mixing is important.

Separate egg and beat yolk un'
til creamy. Add cocoa syrup and
beaten yolk to the milk and
shake we'll. Beat the egg white
until stiff but not dry, and fold
into milk. Pour in tall glass over
Clipped ice.
Charged water can also be used
successfully in making chocolate
beverages. Adding ice cream
makes this drink especially rich
and nouriShing.

One woman fortune-teller was

Beauty
Thin Eyebrow
Is Smart
BY DONNA GRACE


A few years ago some few per
sons assured us that only the
natural eyebrow line would be
worn. It must be left as it grows,
they said; and without any shap-
ing or training.
This is, of course, absurd when
we consider all types of faces, but
we can understand that after the
extreme styles of some 10 or IS
years ago had become the rage,
any advice that might promise a
change in fashion was worth lis
tening to.
We do not, however, advocate
the natural brow for everyone.
The pencil line is no longer fash.
ionable except for character make
up, but the smart line is still a
sleek, thin one. Naturally heavy
brows must be shaped and thinned
for beauty as everyone must agree
heavy thick brows will always de-
tract from the facial expression.
The shaping may be done by
shaving or with the tWeezers, but
only an expert can WELD the razor
safely SO do not attempt that
method. We advise every girl to
go to good operator for the first
shaping; then with the aid of a
magnifying mirror and good
light, one can keep them well.
groomed with regular tweezing.
The space over the nose be-
tween the broWs should be about
the width of the eye from corner
to corner. The natural line on
top of the arch is always pre-
served, but it needs to be
trimmed for smoothneSS. Then
the thinning is done Under the
arch. All of the stray, downy
white hairs are removed. too, so
the whole effect will be clean,
narrow and smart.
When the brows are thin in
spots or do not extend to the
full width of the eye, a crayon
eyebrow pencil is used to fill in.
This is never done in long hard
lines. Little short strokes are
drawn just as the hairs grow,
and the outer tip is faint thin
line and must extend at least
an eighth of an inch past the
outside corner of the eye. Mas

the pencil is better for the brows.

by the students in preparing displays
for their respective engineering de-

among the departments to win the
annual award and recognition for
having the best departmental exhi-
bit.
All the work is done by the engi-

steam engines, model chemical plants

Two Weeks Outdoor Drills
Leaves Coach Caddell
Without First Team

Wake Forest, March q Although
the Deacon baseball candidates have
had almost two weeks of outdoor
work, Notwithstanding the bad wealth
er, Coach John Caddell has not as
yet selected a tentative first team
even though there are only ten more
days of practice remaining before the
opening tilt of the season-with AL
ibany of the International League,
April 8.
With the exception of first base, at
which place Captain Floyd Patton is
firmly established, there are at least
two aspirants for each position on the
club.
Dallas Morris, letterman, and
George Mauney, soph, are fighting
for third base, while Preston Chappell
letterman, and Tallie Dupree, soph,
are vying for shortstop.
Virgie Payne and Smut Aderholt,
sophs, are leading the field in the con-
test for the keystone sack. Payne is
also an outfielder and is working
with Eddie Yount, soph, in left field
Dwight Wall, letterman, and Jim
Dooney, sophomore, are the center
field candidates while Doigt Morris,
letterman and Beamer Barnes, sopho-
more. are leftfield candidates.
To the outside observer, Dial Nor
ris Chapel, Payne, Yount, Wall and
Doigt Morris, appear to be the lead
ers for first string jobs, in their re-
spective places.
The pitching staff is being built
around John Gaddy and Braxton
Rhodes, lettermen, although Coach
Caddell is hoping that Carl Byrd and
Forest Glass, sophs, will come
through to round quartet Of start
ers. Bill Gardner and Jessie Cole,
sophomore lefthanders, will probably
be used in relief roles.
