Breton feeling In the upward
swing of the line, and moderately
high-crowned models with fiat
tering, dipping brims. Often the
crown is open, sometimes "ears"
of the matching betting give
added height at the top. Colors
are being carefully considered by
all designers. Beige is great
fayorite, especially a beige tend
ing toward yellow. Other colors
that bid for popular favor as the
new season advances are a soft
blue allied to periwinkle, but
more lively, which Lydia has in
troduced, kelly green and army
blue.
Other hats for spring street
wear are also fashioned of braid.
These so-called suit hats usually
have narrower brims, sometimes
turned off the face, and often
have the deep back which is so
comfortable to wear and so def
nitely new. Small bretons of me-
teor braid with bi-color edges or
fringed ribbon detail are now
making their bow.
Well-designed felts are being
introduced for both street and
winter vacation wear. These fire.
ulently have narrow rolled hriros O
and moderate crowns. One such
hat was seen recently in yellow
felt with a detailed scanning in
the crown that gave a corded
effect. The hat was completed
with brown band. Indicative of
the lively interest in bright tones
for the resort season are charm
ing felts in Chinese blue. amber,
dusty pink and, of course. white
accented with bright dashcs.

SUNDAY DINNER

By ANN PAGE

MOST housewives plan to serve in
Nl expensive and easy to- prepare
meals after the Thanksgiving feast.
Eggs make a welcome main dish after
too much holiday fare. They may be
used freely for cooking and baking, be-
cause storage eggs are plentiful and
very reasonable for this time of the
year. The supply of fresh eggs is grad
ually increasing, and prices, naturally,
are decreasing.
Forequarter cuts of veal, legs and
chucks of lamb, smoked pork are good
choices in the line of meats. Some FAM
lilies who spent Thanksgiving Day away
from home, may want turkey of their
own for the weekend Turkeys are
still available at reasonable prices.
There is a wide choice of cheap
fruits and vegetables. Grapefruit, small
oranges for juice, apples, Brussels
sprouts, caulifiower, carrots, rutabagas
are all cheap.
The following menus are easy to
prepare and are foods which are rea-
sonably priced.

Movie Skunk Scra1ns
at Sight of Tall Trees

From the big timber company
near Longview, Washington, where
Warner Bros. Technicolor picturiza-
ton of the James Oliver Curwood
novel, Goods Country and the
Woman" was being filmed, came a
telegram to the studio: Rush anoth-

Hyacinth, the expurgated, has ap-
peared in scores of pictures. Her
owner reported that she had never
ran away before, but the sight of
the trees must have been too much
for her, for on landing she headed
for the wide open spaces.
She was urgently needed for a
comedy sequence, hence the wire.

Ashe Boy at Home
After Experiences
inOhiO Flood Area
Robert Woodie Who Works in
Evansville Was Unable to
Leave Flood District

Robert Woodie, Glendale Springs,
salesman for R. J. Reynolds Tobacco
Company, stationed in Evansville,
Ind, is at home with Mrs. Woodie
for a visit. Mr.. Woodie was in the
midst of the flood that swept along
the Ohio valley with such disaster
Gus results the first of February.
While in the city Tuesday, he
praised the work carried on by the
Red Cross and declared that it
would be impossible to set value
on the relief of human suffering and
the subsequent help in rebuilding
that the Red Cross gave to the flood
victims.
Mr.. Woodie himself slept on an
office floor on the ninth story OF a
business building for two weeks
with only thin blanket for cover.
With no heat, no lights, little food,
and the business area covered in
water, he could not continue his
work and attempted to get out and
come back home, but he was unable
to get away. All available transport
tation was being used for those who
were in a condition worse than his.
At one place, due to the acres of
level land, the river was IS miles
wide.
He says the poorest job in the
world now is trying to sell real es-
tate in the flooded districts and it is
a show to drive to the city dump
heaps and see the stack of furniture
that fell to pieces during the flood.
Shortly after his flood experience,
Mr.. Woodie was in tornado and
barely escaped injury when fall
ing limb broke the windshield to
his automobile. According to news
paper report Evansville was damag-
ed $10O,OO0o0 within five minutes
by the same tornado.
