Some girls have the mistaken
idea that to cover the face with
q heavy powder will assure a
smooth, velvet-like skin, but the
contrary is true.
You really must have a deli
cate, refined and light powder
for the best results. The creams
are to give the skin the desired
texture, and the makeup base will
provide a smooth surface for the
light powder.
Heavy powders are conspicuous
and cannot be applied nicely. AS

onion, garlic, carrot and potato.
If you wish it spicy then also get
a box of cloves and purchase
bayleaf.
No oven cooking needed with
this roast. So look carefully for
the right type of pot in which to
DO your top-of-the-Stove roasting.
1t must have a tight fitting lid.
A Dutch oven is perfect for this.
The lid provides self basting. For
you uninitiated, baSting is merely
ladling the drippings over the top
of the roast during the cooking.
To be good your roast needs this.
The drippingS and slow cooking
make it tender and juicy.
Now after you have found your
equipment, find the lard or short
ening, the salt, pepper, and flour.
Melt enough of the fat in the
bottom of the pot to cover 1t
about one-eighth of an inch. One
expert confessed that he never
used shortening, he always fried
out" two small chunks of suet and
used this fat. If you are only a
novice with ambitions. better not
attempt this though, the first or
even the second time.
Dust the roast generously with
flour and salt, and lift the roast
into the hot fat and let it brown
on all sides. You will need to
have the fire turned rather high
for this and let nothing distract
your attention, not even jangling
doorbell.
Concentrate on seeing that the
meat obtains a becoming brown
color. Now add a cup Of boiling
water. Lay over the top thin
slices of onion, and dash with salt
and pepper. Turn down the fire
to low, put the lid on, and your
battle Is half won. The constant
dripping of moisture down from
the lid will keep the roast moist
and flavorful.
About As minutes before Serv
ing, that is about two and a half
hours after the slow cooking start
ed, add the peeled potatoes and
the carrots. Choose medium
sized new potatoes and young car
rots for this. During cooking you
may need to add water from time
to time but only add a small
amount at time for in this way
the meat becomes more brown and
the gravy more concentrated and
delicious.
MANY VARIATIONS
This is the recipe at its simplest.
There are many types Of varia-
tons. One epicure swears that
certain dishes stand or fall on the
amount of garlic used. He takes
Glove of garlic, cuts it into four
pieces, then inserts shavings from
these pieces Of garlic into the
pot roast before it is cooked. Then.
very important, these slivers Of
garlic are removed before serving.
Another. equally skilled, never
would be guilty of this. Instead
he adds the chopped Glove OF gar.
lie to the fat before the meat is
Drowned. But the garlic never
really touches the meat. Every
piece of this garlic is carefully
skinned from the fat before the
meat is added.
Space and time demand that
study of the art of using garlic be
deferred until next Thursday.

No mere words can do justice
here. 1t is not for the amateur
cooks. Those who are proud Of
their pot roast are in the ad
vanced class. They are hitting
the top, so to speak, and they
guard with their lives the exact
formula used in concocting this
dish for kings.
In fact, in doing this bit Of
sleuthing in order to bring you
some first.hand information on
the subject, find that the exact
recipe is as closely guarded as the
international war secrets. Each
man has discovered for himself
the answer and he is jealousy
proud.
EACH DIFFERS
No two taste alike. And while
the recipe may seem to follow the
typical masculine rite Of a dash OF
this and a dash Of that, the results
are unimitable. In thinking the
matter over, have reached the
conclusion that they vary the
score to express their personality.
II their swank bachelor quarters
are done in reds and black, then
the pot roast gets a half bottle OF
red wine. Perhaps it is tempera-
ment. For the man of the North
west, he reincarnates a modified
sauerbraten and losses in a bou-
quet garni and measure Of vine
gar to give the cool spicy smell OF
the outdoors. The dashing So
phisticate recaptures the culinary
glory of Paris or old Rome.
There you have it.
It is a game without rules
where, with imagination, you can
evolve q creation that will make
the ordinary pot roast never taste
the same again. You can become
famous, and what husband isn't
eager to hear more along that
subject?
So sink back into the chair and
follow along closely. Find your
self a good butcher and have him
Zone and prepare the roast for
you. If he is really good, then
you need not worry about the
cut, but if you are not quite sure,
you must assume the responsible
ity of telling him just what you
want.
Almost any cut prepared for
roasting can be used. In fact
even a beef tenderloin or a Sirloin
Of beef can be used. But the
usual choice is a chuck, round,
or Q runp roast. For the small
pot roast, the heel of the round
Is first choice. This heel Of the
round is sometimes dubbed pixies
Peak" so worry not at all If he
comes right back at you with this
jargon.
It is most important that the
meat have a good fat covering
and be flecked through with the
fat. If it looks too lean, then
suggest that he lard" the roast
for you. This is a process of in
serting threads of salt pork on
the surface Of the meat to keep
the roast moist and pliable. It is
one of the secrets Of success.
Then have the roast tied into
shape. A four or five pound
roast is best If you are buying
either rump or chuck.

PLEDGE NOT TO
BEARARMSF0R
j. S. REJECTED
American Student Union
Pledges Support Of China,
..~ Loyal Spain

POUGHKEEPSIE. n. Y, Dec.
81. (UP)-The third annual con-
vcntion of the American Student
union, representing $50 universe
ties and high schools, last night
rejected the Oxford pledgc-aH
oath that would have bound 30
600 students never to bear arms
in defense of the United States.
The vote came on the third day
of the third annual convention on
the VasSar college campus, where.
earlier yesterday, the delegates
danced around a bonfire and
burned silk stockings, necktieS
and lingerie, as part Of their boy
colt against Japanese goods. The
convention is committed to the
support of China and LoyaliSt
Spain.
The Oxford pledge. So-callcd
because it originated at Oxford
university, England, reads, 81
will not support the government
Of the United States in any war
it undertakes" 1t has been the
critical issue here where liberals
and left-wing students have been
arguing such wcighty matters as
war, economic security and educa-
ton.
Last year the student union APP
proved the Oxford pledge, but this
year a majority bloc. headed by
Joseph P. Lash, executive secre-
tary, recommended reputation Of
the pledge. Instead, they called
for a peace program that would
call for the United States to brand
aggressor nations and apply en-
bargoes against them.
Their victory tonight resulted
in adoption of this resolution:
Eve pledge the American Stu
dent union TO support a program
that will make the United States
genuine and active force for
peace. In answer to the urgent
danger of American involvement
in a World war, we favor imme-
