With the modern standard
equipment and oven temperature
regulation it is comparatively sim
pie to make successfully any
recipe that may fit your fancy.
Certain rules must be followed,
however. All recipes today are
in standard measurements. The
tablespoons and cups mean level
measures. In the case Of flour,
there is quite difference be-
tween sifted and unsifted flour.
The unsifted flour has q ten
dency to pack, so in all cases
Except when written otherwise).
the proportions call for measured
sifted flour.
In most recipes the size Of the
pan Is given in which the
cake bakes to best advantage.
Perhaps it. says nine-inch layer
pans, a sheet pan, loaf pan or
angel cake pan. The time for
baking and oven temperature
are regulated for the particular
type Of pan.
Another secret is the handling
Of the cake after baking. The
butter cake should be colored on
the cake rack while the sponge
cake is best if cooled in the in
verted pan.
Here are some tested recipes
that I am sure you will be pleased

Etiquette
Professionally
Or Socially?
ByMRS.CORNELIUS BEECKMAN

ByMKS.COkNEL bEECAMAN
':Dear Mrs. Beeckman:
"a friend Of mine is . chirO-
practOr and has her office as DR..
z. Case 1--WE will say and she
married . DR.. r. Adams 1--WE will
cali him). She still practices and
has her office as before.
at has puzzled me to know how
to introduce her. noticed I'm the
Lodge book that she Is listed as
Mrs. b. Adams. We have always
addressed her as DIR. E. Case, and
We would like to know how to ad-
dress her now. especially when
she iS with her husband, / find
il difficult to say 'Dr. Adams" to
both.
'Her husband Is q very fine sur
geOn, and / believe that she is 50
proud Of him and Of his name
that she prefers to be called Mrs.
r. Adams, and thus the reason for
that listing Of her name in the
year book. READER"
It Is always a problem for us to
know how to address, socially,
a woman doctor who is married.
And there is only one solution to
this problem: to find out from the
woman herself what form of
name she wishes to have used so
cially.
Most married women doctors
that have known have chosen to
be addressed socially just as this
friend Of yours has apparently
chosen-by the Mrs. before her
husbands name, Mrs. Robert
Adams. Professionally, Doctor
Edna Case; socially, Mrs. Robert
Adams.
So since this friend Of yours
has listed herself in the Lodge
hook as Mrs. Robert Adams, this
is the form Of name that you
would use for her socially. You
are fortunate to be given the cue
as to what form Of name she pre-
fers socially-oftentimes it isn't as
easy as this. And remember that
socially it is Mrs, not Doctor.
You are probably partly right
in thinking that she is so proud
of her husband that she wishes
socially to be known by his name
nrefixed by Mrs. But the other
nart of this Judgment is that she
has q sure and sound point Of
view about the margins" between
her professional and social life.
Many, many married professional
women, doctors and other profeS-
SionS, these days make this same
wise choice, using their profeS-
sional names in their professions
or in their business life, and using
their formal social names in their
social life.

Embarrassing
Situation
BY DONNA GRACE

To the lady who signs herself
"Desperate'-It is difficult to ad-
wise you now, as your problem
seems to be one that involves you
in an embarrassing situation. Your
hair would be very dry and life.
less If you have been touching it
up with bleach every day.
Peroxide Is always drying, but
when done carefully at intervals Of
from three to six weeks is seldom
destructive. However, all bleached
hair needs an occasional rest and
reconditioning, even though one
must be q brunette for q while.
This Is necessary when the bleach
ing Is very frequent such as yours
has been. or the average platinum
bleacheS.
The depilatories are q somewhat
drastic means Of removing the eye
brows, although some girls make q
regular practice Of it, with no bad
effects. Do not be too depressed
about it. You are not the only girl
who made this mistake. Tell your
husband the truth, as you cannot
continue with your bleach II YOU
are losing all your hair.
It may be necessary to go to q
specialist for regular treatment,
but the following home method
will often bring satisfactory re-
suits. Cut off all the dry ends and
massage the scalp with the fol-
lowing mixture-heated:
teaspoon full Of olive oil
/ teaspoon Of castor oil
/ teaspoonful Of vaseline
Apply to the scalp with the tips
Of the fingers and massage thor.
oughly.
After the massage. it would be
well to cover the hair with q veil
and leave it on over night. Pro-
tect your pillow slip with q cover.
Shampoo the hair during the fore.
noon with the melted soap. egg
and bay rum, and dry.
You will need other treatments,
and they are given in my treat
ment for falling hair. The sham
pooS and head massage are also
a part of the routine.
Jill r.: When the skin burns as
yours does after washing, it means
that it is irritated. Some skins
are so sensitive that even soap and
water will irritate them. It may
be that you do not rinse your face
thoroughly enough to remove all
Of the soap. Even the very finest
soap will irritate a sensitive skin
If it is left on after washing, so
rinse it carefully and pat the face
dry.
Keep a bottle Of astringent or
skin tonic to sponge on the face
for the oily condition. Then re.
lieve the irritation with your
creams.
YOu may have any Of these
without charge, il you will enclose

Posture Control
BY otherwise, I mean that
posture is bad, and that will
often make difference Of two or
three inches In your figure or
in your apparent size, we might
say. Slouching or holding your
torso the wrong way will dis
tribute your flesh so that it looks
much more than it really is. The
right distribution Of weight Is as
important as is keeping your
pounds down to where they
should be.
Everybody knows that q COM
bination Of dieting (not neces-
sarily rigorously) and Of the
right exercise is the best, almost
the only way to lose flesh. Add
to that the fact that learning
right posture will distribute your
weight rightly, and you have en-
braced the idea Of getting your
figure into shape for summer.

you haven't you should go to an

Dear Miss Fairfax:

Dear Miss Fairfax:
when we became engaged, we
agreed not to 90 with any other
boy or girl Two months before
we were married I went home.
While there someone wrote me
that my fiance hadn't kept his
promise and was going with other
girls. So I began to 60 with
other boys, and wrote and told
him about it.
'We've been married five
months now, and have lived in
. perpetual quarrel ever since, be-
cause / broke my agreement.
I've explained to him the reason
I went with other boys, and
begged for his forgiveness, but it
doesn't seem to help.
do you think I deserve any
more punishment? "E."
You've been punished enough,
to my way Of thinking, and If
you two youngsters don't stop
quarreling over nothing, you will
have serious trouble on your
hands. He broke his word to
you, and you broke your word
to him. Doesn't he remember
that fine old nursery ,platitude
that what is sauce for the
gander is sauce for the goose?"
