Party HOnOrS
Mrs. Reed

When the Democrats so in for
something, be it a campaign,
drive, or what have you, one can
rest well assured that it will be a
big success, with much credit 60
ing to the women of the party.
The successful tea held Satur-
day afternoon in the club house
at 1926 New Hampshire Ave. N.
w, held in honor of Mrs. Stanley
Reed, chairman of the member
ship committee, is but another
activity credited to their splendid
record. This occasion officially
launched the clubs membership
drive for this season.
The spacious club rooms were
filled with charming, smiling
women and an atmosphere of cor
dial welcome and friendliness
prevailed. Many of the guests
who had recently returned from
Europe were enthusiastically
greeted by their friends. Paris
fashions. as clever and exotic as
any yet produced by Partisan
couturiers, made it seem as if this
function were more of a fashion
show than tea.
ATTRACTIVE TABLE
In the center of the dining
room stood an oblong table COW
cred with a linen, Roman cut
work dinner cloth edged with fine
handmade lace. Twin silver can
delabras and cut-glaSs bowl con-
tanning baby chrysenthemums
over a mirror tray featured the
table decorations. Silver tea Serv-
ices were placed at each end. The
guests we're served either tea or
coffee, according to preference,
and delicious tea sandwiches.
Presiding at one end of the tea
table was Mrs. James Field whose
simple black dress was adorned
with a double strand of lovely
pearls. Her velour hat held in
place with a square-dotted veil tied
around her face. was reminiscent
of the gay nineties." Mrs. William
Howes, at the other end, chatted
amiably as she served the guests.
Her bright, friendly smile, part
of her lovely personality, greeted
each guest approaching her. Look
ing extremely smart, Mrs. HoweS
wore a black ensemble, the bolero
jacket of which was trimmed in
Persian lamb. Completely envelop-
ing her turban was a square mesh
veil, which fell in graceful folds
over her golden hair.
AMONG GUESTS
Glimpsed among the many guests
was Mrs. Vincent Myers, recently
returned from a trip abroad. Her
costume, one of the smartest seen,
consisted of a black crepe gown
with white bodice, fastened with a
black Upper in front. Completing
her black and white costume with
a black felt hat with satin band,
white kidskin gloves, and silver
fox scarf, Mrs. Myers looked not |
only chic but extremely svelte.
In the receiving line were Mrs.
Charles Brand, Mrs. C. E. Riggs,
Mrs. Hugh Mathews, Miss Leila
Peachy, Mrs. Loren johnson, and
Mrs. Lawrence Groner,

EDUCATOR TALKS
That one of the most beautiful
works of art known the world over,
THE Sistine Madonna" by the
famous Italian beatified artist,
Raphael, was one of the most over
rated in the world and that the
figures in Michael Angeles paint
ings were grossly exaggerated, was
asserted by DR.. Will HutchinS, of
American University, connoisseur
of art and guest speaker at the art
tea yesterday afternoon, which Of
ficially opened this exhibit.
DR.. Hutchins also stated:
ANY form of reproductions
of famous works of art must be
in color in order to gain full
benefit and to obtain the ulti-
mate objective"

Old Desserts That Are
 Very Easy To Make

 By this time we all know about various ice-boX "cakes" that require little or no cooking. yet slip in and out of the refrigerator as finished and delicious as though hours of time had been spent making them.
 But how many know about ice-box "pies"2 They are Q beautiful cross between gelatin or custard, fresh fruit and pastry which you can make with berries or any of the mealy fruits. ,.,
 Here is very special strawberry ice-box pie:
 Strawberry Ice-Box Pie
 First dissolve 6 package of fruit favored gelatin according to direc. tons on the box: set aside to cool and when beginning to set, whip with a rotary egg beater until of the consistency of white of egg.
 Prepare your pie "crust" by crush- ing about three dozen small vanilla waters and lining a deep buttered pie tin with the crumbs. To the whipped gelatin add fresh straw berries cut in halves, pour the fruit mixture into the pie plate and set aside to chill. Before serving, spread top with a half cut of cream which has been sweetened and whipped. Follow the same general direc- tions for any berry filling, or for banana or sliced peaches. When using strawberries or raspberrieS. select gelatin of that flavor; for peaches and bananas the orange or lemon-fiavored gelatin works out best.
 Cherry Ice-Box Pie
 Cherries will soon be with us, and if you don't mind making a quick custard, you can have a delicious cherry ice-box pie by lining the buttered pie tin with crushed lemon snaps: then add layer of pitted drained cherries. pour over the warm custard, cool and set in the refrigerator for three or four hours. This is especially tempting-a real treat for men who are tremendous

Wherever sour milk is used in lib- eral amounts as a human food, the people are of exceptional physical perfection" states Dr. D. V. McCol- lum of John Hopkins University. II IS used in enormous quantities in Asia, Arabia, Balkan States, North Africa and the grazing sections ot Abyssinia. Tn hot countries and among pastoral people living under primitive conditions, 1t is the cus- tom to sour milk immediately.
 Sour milk is particularly good ln the diet because of It's action on the intestinal bacteria. It is & good health practice to use as much of 1t as one can in cottage cheese or mixed with ordinary mayonnaise dressing or in such recipes as any Of the following:

TOOTHPICK TOPICS

BY c. C. FLINT

The trolley car" days, before
automobiles were plentiful. were
among the happiest of that short
period from 1900 to 1912, when
contentment and a holiday-spirit
prevailed. There was less tempta-
ton to ssend money on costly en-
tertainment and ZOOS and parks
were outing places for family
gatherings and good times.
The open trolley car had just
replaced the horse-drawn We
hictes of the Nineties and was "tbe
thrill of the age" in speed and
air-cooling. Parks, offering ami
nal and side-shows, vaudeville
and merry-go-rounds, overflowed
with boisterous crowds. The "mo-
ton pictures" offered such side
splitting comedies as John Bunny
and Flora Finch, Charlie Chaplin
and the Drews. Canoes were popu-
BAR with lovers in those days of
real Snort" when a dollar went
further than it will again.
The conductor, with his gold
stripes, would go hand-over-hand
along the side Of the car, collect
ing his fares. The long skirts of
tho women would balloon and
whip the breeze as the car kerr
thumped over uneven tracks.
Children leaned out to grasp
flowers that clustered by the
rats, an now a howl from one
who had interces ted bee. Ar
rived at th- park, gay with flags
and japanese lanterns, the crowd
would iostle through the turn
stiles with their baskets of picnic
dainties and head for the monkey
cages, to stand for an hour watch
ing the 2ntics of the comical
simians; then over to the lions
den for shuddcr thrill. But that
day is over. dead as the Dodo,
and the miles Of trolley track are
torn up and gone. So, too, is
much simple delight in small
things.
