Many Practical Ideas Given
For Showerins Engaged Girls
At Gay, Informal Gatherings

| JUNE weddings mean Apri
y showers. These exciting func.
tions for happy brides-to-be Offer
an unlimited means of extending
Fluctuations to the young woman
who is about to encounter the joys
and perplexities of a marital ca
reer.
In planning shower there are
certain niceties of etiquette that
must be observed. First of all, the
hostess for such affairs must not
be relative of the bride-elect. Rel
atives may be among the guests,
but it would be the height of bad
form for member of either of the
young couples families to so much
as have a hand in the arrange
ments of bridal shower. Secondly,
because acceptance of an invitation
at once obligates the guest to pur-
chase a gift, only very close friends
should be invited.
So that a shower will really be
both practical and attractive, it is
wise to inform all guests as to the
exact nature of the shower. This
precludes the possibility of dupli-
cations and also makes it possible
to carry out color scheme.
While most showers are held
either in connection with a bridge
luncheon or afternoon bridge, it is
quite correct to have an evening
shower, with bridge or other games
for entertainment, and late refresh
ments. 1t is all a matter of con-
venience for guests. If many of the
brides friends are busy during the
day, it follows as natural sequence
that an evening function is best.
Sunday morning breakfast showers
are also given and provide novel
means of entertaining business
women. On such occasions the gifts
usually consist of articles that will
be used in the new home for break
fast.
In cases where the honored guest
shows marked interest in garden
ing and has planned a home that
will include garden, an afternoon
tea with the garden of a friend as
a setting provides a most harmo-
NOUS background for a shower that
consists of all sorts of implements
| and accessories for Use in a lovelv
garden.
Kitchen showers are usually the
first thought with most people,
while bathroom showers run a close
second. In choosing either idea,
care should be taken to follow a
color scheme, so as not to spread
the gifts out over too wide a selec-
ton.
In the case of a kitchen motif.
why not confine all gifts to small
Imperial Valley press., 1937-03-28

fkitchen implements, such as meas
uring spoons, beaters, forks. can
openers, in fact, all those dozen and
one things that comprise a COM
plete kitchen drawer? Then again,
mixing bowls, refrigerator dishes,
measuring cups, and pitchers offer
fine field for a good shower.
The stunning new color effects
that make modern bathrooms so
outstanding provide unlimited pos
sibilities for showers. Take, for in
stance, the new tan and rose-pink
color schemes, the turquoise blue
and yellow combinations, the dar-
ing navy blue and white decora-
tions, and the dark wine reds,
known as dubonnet, that are to be
found In towels and other bathroom
accessories.
Closets that were once Just dark
recesses in which clothes were
hung, have been so glorified as to
make the giving of numerous beau
tiful accessories a most ideal SUBJ
ject for pre-nuptial showers.
A very old custom, and a most
appropriate one, is a teacup shower.
Each guest provides a beautiful
teacup, usually of individual design,
which makes up complete set for
the new home. After-dinner coffee
cups can be substituted if it seems
desirable.
We can go on and on with shower
suggestions, but after all, the sue
cess of such happy occasions is
largely dependent on the taste and
temperament, as we'll as the future
living environment, of the young
woman to be honored.
Knowing that the refreshments
served at showers can be made
definite part of the entire scheme
of hospitality, THE FORUM wishes
to remind its readers that if menu
planning seems to present difficult
ties, this department will gladly
step forward and offer suggestions.
New food ideas are constantly
being developed, and we have in
our files any number of wonderful
new recipes for everything from
unusual soups to frozen desserts of
great originality that are yours for
the asking. Whether you wish to
have us take a hand in helping to
plan the entire affair, or only SUBJ
init one recipe, we will be happy
to be of service. Accompany in
quiries with a stamped, self-ad-
dressed envelope and a prompt re-
ply will result.
This service is rendered entirely
without cost. If you have other
forms of entertainment in mind and
are seeking reliable information,
we will endeavor to do our best to
supply you with suitable ideas. BY
giving parties that are right in
every detail, it is possible for every
one to achieve the reputation of be-
ng a perfect hostess.

Hot Noon Meals
Much Needed
by Children

consume a hearty meal. This means
that the child goes to bed with a
partially digested meal inside his
too active tummy. If grown-ups
avoid retiring for the night imme-
diately after a meal, how much
more important it is for child
to eat light, easily digested meal
just after sundown, SO that the
stomach will be able to perform
its functions before prone posi-
tion is taken.
Planning lunch for children of
school age is really no problem. Just
as in the toddler, food balance is
maintained by including meat, one
green vegetable, a starch and a
dessert rich in nourishment. With
this meal milk is naturally included.
Time and effort can be saved if
the same vegetable that is to be
served for the adult dinner is pre-
pared in a smaller quantity for
lunch. 1t must be freshly cooked,
with steaming the preferred meth
cd. Noodles, rice, potatoes or an
other starch offer many variations.
The item Of meat should vary, too;
lamb chop one day, a meat patty
for change, and then fix liver and
bacon, or generous helping of beef
or lamb stew. For a special treat
second joint of grilled chicken may
also be included.
Desserts that are rich in body
building elements should be chosen.
It often happens that such foods
are not particularly palatable to
the rest of the family, in which
case it is possible to prepare indi-
vidual servings.
You are probably about to re-
mark that this sounds like splen-
did idea, but repeated consultation
of the recipes contained in cook
books have failed to produce in
structions for preparing individual
portions.
Well, this is where the FORUM
is ready and eager to come to the
assistance of all mothers faced
with such a situation. Your child
may be just about to embark on
custards, puddings and "pruney"
desserts, after infant feelings, or
he may be sturdy school boy who
will eat such sweets with relish if
he does not have to be confronted
with adult distaste for such foods.
If you will send a stamped, self
addressed envelope to Dorothy
Blair, care of THE FIVE STAR
WEEKLY FORUM, San Francisco,
group of neatly printed recipe
cards, giving exact measurements
for preparing individual portions of
splendid variety Of desserts will
be mailed you entirely without
charge. These same recipes are also
helpful to make invalid trays as
inviting as possible.

By Dorothy Blair

IT is all too easy, when school
days settle into a routine, for the
younger members of the family to
forego a hot noon meal in favor of
boz lunches.
Naturally when school is at some
distance from the home, 1t is i'm
practical to provide lunch as for
merly, but when a brisk walk
makes the journey to and from
school a matter of just few min
utes, there should never be an in
terruption in home-cooked meals.
Bad weather, yes; on stormy days
lunch kit can be filled and taken
to school, but even then it is pru-
dent to see that hot soup or a
steaming beverage is included.
A fine digestive system is the
most priceless possession of which
any adult can boast, and if we but
knew much of the stomach trouble
that arises in later life Is directly
traceable to poor eating habits in
childhood.
Child specialists will tell you
with great firmness that all chill
dren from kindergarten straight
through the gates of college itself
should make a well-balanced, hot
monday meal the basis of their
daily nourishment. Breakfasts are
important, but the intake of proper
hot food at noon provides young
bodies with the nutriment that as
sures the building up of resistance
against disease, nervous exhaustion
and malnutrition.
1t is natural that children prefer
to delve into the mysterious pack
ages that comprise school lunch,
rather than return to the familiar
family dining table, but the will
of the child should in no way enter
into the disruption Of a carefully
maintained program of eating that
has been in effect since infancy.
Growing children who give out
so much in play and study must
build up a strong reserve, and this
can only be done by an abundance
of nourishing food eaten with clock
like regularity. The preparation of
a MONDAY meal, of course, means
extra work, but the dividends in
health more than repay a mother
for this worthwhile effort.
There are many conflicting opin-
ions about the advisability of allow
ing young children to eat their share
of the evening meal. Many moth
ers, disregarding the advice Of doc
tors, can see no harm in permit
ting child of seven, eight or nine
to carry through the day on a
lunch composed Of sandwiches, a
salad, cake and fruit, and then
only an hour or so before bedtime,

Easy Me thod
For Washing
All Dishes
Step-B Step System
Eliminates Tiresome
Features OF Routine

nUT rhythm into your dishwash-
ing and save time! No, we don't
mean to whistle or hum as you 60
through the often monotonous mo-
tons of getting dishes and pots
and pans back to their spic and
spanness, but to wisely arrange
the work so that the entire pro,
cedure is one of uninterrupted
motion.
Successful dishwashing means
successful preparation. The dishes
should be scraped clean of all food
and stacked either to the left or
right of the sink. Some women
find 1t easier to work from right
to left, others work in the oppo-
site direction, but the main thing
s to select a direction and stick
20 it through the entire task.
If you select pure, quick dis
solving, granulated soap there is
no need to use excessively hot
water. On the contrary, such soap
will thoroughly clean dishes and
make glasses sparkle when it is
used in lukewarm water.
Glasses and silver articles should
be washed first, rinsed in very hot
water, dried, and put away. Next
come plates in order of their size,
the little ones first. When they are
placed in an upright position in a
rack and given hot water shower
they can be forgotten as they will
dry of their own accord. Then
come bowls and other large OBJ
jects. Each piece should be rinsed
individually and dried Immediately.
When all these things have been
put away 1t Is time to start on the
kitchen utensils.
Mixing and measuring spoons,
knives and forks used in cooking,
and similar objects, should be
washed, rinsed, and dried first. Pot
lids are next, with saucepans, ket-
ties and colanders getting their
share of cleansing in proper ro-
tation.
Greasy skillets or roast pans Of
fer no problems If they are put on
with a solution of hot water and
tablespoon of cleansing powder
to boil merrily away while the
routine dishwashing is in progress.
When it Is their turn to be made
shipshape once more, it is a Joy
to discover that they only need a
few swishes with a stiff -bristled
brush and couple of rinsings with
hot water to Danish all evidences
OF grease and burnt food particles.
This means that greasy dish water
need never be encountered.
The use of glass towels, dish
towels, and towels for pots and
pans also facilitates dishwashing.
The very newest developments in
the manufacture Of towels have
produced some that are made
highly absorbent by combining
rayon threads with cotton. These
towels are ideal for glassware and
dishes and they have the added
attraction of being fashioned in
very gay designs. And there are
all linen towels that blazon forth
in handblocked designs which in
no way impair their usefulness.
There is nothing like a gay note
to raise the spirits when monoton-
Gus dishwashing is at hand.

Winter Skins
Are Revived
With Pack
By Regular Home Care
With Good Cosmetics
Success Is Assured

THIS is the time of the year
when ones face usually shows
every evidence of let-down.
Harsh winds, too much time spent
indoors, and the unfortunate re-
suits of winter colds and enforced
inactivity, all take their toll.
The damage can be repaired
quickly and inexpensively right at
home so that your skin will vie
with the roses of June. Skins go
through period of renewal, just
like everything else that is the pro-
duct Of natures unvarying laws.
1t is only when we attempt to dis
regard the danger signals and are
loathe to take steps to replenish
our depleted resources that we age
prematurely.
Have you ever tried a good milk
facial pack? This is a preparation
especially designed for tired skins.
It is a creamy substance that
spreads smoothly over the face,
drying with an ever so slight tight
ening effect. Used once a week on
dry skins, and two or three times
week where there is an oily, or
a dry-oily condition present, a milk
pack will serve as most wonder
full restorative.
The initial step in this treatment
is to protect the hair with a strip
of material. A fine hair band is
easily made from length of STAN
dard, woven surgical bandage. This
is inexpensive and can be washed
repeatedly. An application of cleans.
ing cream follows in gentle rotary
motions. Then cleansing tissues re-
move all evidence of grease. In the
case of oily skins it has been found
best to use soft cloths, or old towels
for cream removal as they are
more absorbent.
The skin is now ready to receive
the milk pack. Spread it on with
upward motions, covering the en-
tire surface of the face and neck
but leaving a wide margin around
the eyes as that delicate skin area
requires only the most mild stim-
ulation.
If possible lie down while the
pack is drying; at any rate, rest
comfortably during that period
Imperial Valley press., 1937-03-28

Excessively oily skins cannot stand
rich creams. SO this step in the
treatment should be omitted If such
a condition exists.
The face and neck should now
glow mildly. Again any surplus
cream is removed. The pores are
Imperial Valley press., 1937-03-28

Lukewarm water, or a mild tonic
lotion quickly removes the pack.
The skin is now ready to receive a
thin film of rich cream, and then
gentle patting along the jaw line.
Also work the cream into the neck
with upward and outward strokes.

ughtened. and further stimulation
is given the skin, by the applica-
ton Of an astringent which is
gently slapped on to the skin with
a small square of cotton that has
been thoroughly saturated with the
liquid.

Cut Flowers
Demand Cool
Environment

.N THIS happy day you have
- perhaps been fortunate enough
to receive some beautiful growing
plants and are naturally desirous
of keeping them in their present
healthy, Towering condition as long
as possible.
Flowering house plants will con-
tinue to bloom for a reasonable
period if they are kept out of the
sun, away from artificial heat, and
in as cool a room as possible. Ever
notice how cool florists keep their
shops? Well, they know that plants
and cut flowers quickly wither in
the heat.
Paper wrappings, no matter how
attractive, must be removed so that
the pots will be able to exude mois-
|mNre. And with regard to moisture,
not water plants too frequently,
hey must be kept moist, but not
soggy, and the dish beneath them
| must never contain water. as this
sours the soil.
IA AS soon as blooms begin to
wither, clip them. Drying leaves
should also be eliminated. If bulbs
are the origin of the plants, they
can be removed, dried, and used
next season once they have ceased
this years growing.
n Transplanting hothouse plants
! to the garden rarely meets with
success, though there have beer
cases where even so delicate a
plant as an Easter lily has beer
known to take up its garden abode
in a semi-tropical climate with
great success.
Imperial Valley press., 1937-03-28

p EALLY different things are be-
~ ing done this year that give the
first spring clothes unusually be-
ing lines.
The so-called swing skirt, which
is contrived from numerous cores
that give sleek waist and hiplines,
flares in mid-course, providing a
ripping hemline. Hem fullness,
while dangerous to very short
women, is exceedingly becoming to
all figures Of average or above aver
age height.
We are finding, too, that sleeve
treatments also emphasize fullness,
and here again is an ally for con-
cealing figure defects. Tall lean
figures will find puff sleeves give
an effect of roundness, materially
aiding the deception. Boyish hips
will seem less SO when the long
skirt line flares bell-like from the
knees down. The high princess
waists are another feature that will
be a blessing for those who would
welcome a few extra pounds, as it
possible to introduce gathered
hess into the center point of
high belt.
These new fashions are kind to
the heavier figure as we'll. A "V"
neckline to lengthen the plump face,
and just enough fullness in the up
per sleeve to create an illusion of
shoulder width to balance gener-
Gus hips, can do wonders for a ma
ture figure, especially when a
pointed princess waistline, minus
gathers over the bust, aids in giving
a flattering picture of slimness
The short peplums that appear
on many Of the new print dresses,
while excellent for giving the ap-
pearance of a fuller figure, should
be avoided at all costs by women
who wish to subtract instead of add
pounds to their outline.
The simple styles we have Sc
lected as the subjects Of this weeks
photographs are most representa-
of the new mode. These dresses
.e been created by Western
manufacturers and are especially
designed to meet the needs of West
ern women. You will be pleased to
know that they are probably avail
able in your community in a va
riety of color combinations, and, of
course, in many other adaptations
than the two models shown. These
dresses are also moderately priced.
in spite of the high quality of the
materials used and the excellent
workmanship.

Supreme Court Decision
Set Back to Labor Board

Washington, d. c. (ILNS)-The
action of the supreme court in refus-
ing to review the Third Circuit Court
of Appeals in the Delaware New Jer-
sey Ferry case is likely to plague the
NLRB not a little.
The board had ordered the company
to bargain with an A. F. of L. union
representing the marine engineers.
The company instead dealt with a
hand picked committee of three en-
gineers, and signed a contract with
them which the board proved was ex-
torted by company coercion.
But the Third circuit court at Phila-
delphia refused to enforce the boards S
order, and the supreme court refused
to review the case. 1t would seem
that a circuit court might refuse to
enforce any other board order; or that
an employe, by getting in ahead with
an agreement with any sort of union
might be enabled to put the thumb OF
scorn to the nose of derision, and twid-
die its fingers at the Wagner act.
