BY ORRY-KELLY

Fashions quite contrary grow
in every Mary's garden. Just
imagine the bulky lumberjacket
worn by sturdy tree-choppers Of
the North being interpreted in
gold lame and entering the
wardrobe of a fastidius lady.
Conjure up a heavy black rick
rack studded with jeweled nail
heads. Visualize a leather coat
over full,skirted black net for
NAL gown-but a coat of pale
pink kid as fine as silk. Con-
ceive a brown silk jersey dinner
dress with sleeves rolled up above
the elbow excatly as one would
do with the oldest sweater in the
world. Such are the caprices Of
1888. and they are executed for
the Hollywood girls who crave
excitement in their clothes.
Bette Davis introduces the ex-
traordinary lumber-jacket, and
a fetching little evening coat it
is for semltormal occasions. It
is fashioned with gold lasteX
band at the waiStline and has a
matching upper up the front
which ends in jeweled tab at
the little turnover collar. Bette
particularly likes the jacket
with a slim black crepe evening
gown, but it is attractive with
almost any simple monotone
frock.
Marie Wilson, who adores
quaint touches on her frocks,
gets the unique in a gown she
wears in Tough Angels" The
princess gown of white MORE
has full skirt, the hemline of
which is banded in three rows
of the studded black rickrack.
Three rows of the sparkling
braid also mark the high, round
neckline and short puffed
sleeves.
The formal evening coat of
leather belongs to Gale Page.
1t is a loose, knee-length and
collarless. 1t is incredibly soft
and is covered with a. quilted
and padded floral design. Such
treatment of leather is a COM
paratiVely new process but
opens interesting fields for the
use of soft kids.
For several aSons the
sweater influence has been felt
in evening fashions. but this
year it Is more noticeable than

it has been. We are making
many jerseys and crepes with
three-quarter length sleeves
which are worn pushed or rolled
over the elbow. A popular neck
line, too, is the one that is made
high and then rolled down. We
did this one recently on a blue
and Silver-striped dinner dress
and there was something imp
ishly appealing about its casual
look on such formal fabric.
Since every woman has her
contrary moments, she should
certainly find something in the
1888 parade to please her.

Soak Gelatin
InFOurPQrtS
Cold Water

1t is well to remember that in
soaking granulated gelatin for
use in salads, desserts, etc., the
correct proportion is four parts
cold water to one part of gela-
tin. That is. for each teaspoon
of gelatin used one needs four
teaspoons of water. After soak
ing, the gelatin is dissolved in
hot liquid or hot water as the
recipe directs.
When lineoleum is grimy from
dirt ground into it by careless
feet, it cannot be so easily
cleaned with an ordinary brush
and soap and water. Some
women save elbow grease by
cleaning linoleum with the
metal fibre securing pad and
polishing soap usually intended
The Washington times., 1938-08-30

for aluminium. They merely
take a small space of floor at
a time, rub briskly with pad
and soap as they would uten-
sill and rinse with clean cloth
and warm water.
One of the most important
things that goes on in the pan
while candy is being cooked is
the evaporation of liquid. When
the air of the kitchen is full OF
moisture-when it is steamy or
may be rainy out of doors-the
evaporation is delayed and so it
takes longer for the candy to
reach the stage at which it can
be removed from the flame.
Soft or steamed custard will
develop a thin skin on its sur
face if it is left uncovered for
a period of time before serving.
It is harmless. but unattractive,
and so it should be prevented by
keeping the pan or dish covered
until time to serve the dessert.

Scientific AdUice
GiUen by Engineer

E. B. McKachron, research
engineer of the General Electric
Company, offers some scientific
advice on the subject:
"If you are swimming, or en-
joying any water sport, during
a storm when lightning frolics,
get ashore. Dry yourself as
quickly as possible, too. Other
hints I might offer are: Don't
stand on the steps or in the door
way of a church with a steeple;
keep away from pointed metal
objects exposed out Of doors;
don't play golf"

fan mail from men who would
want to marry me for my
money. But with something

lion to give away, this could be

Aperitif

A new idea abroad in the
land is the aperitif hat. It's
a combination of two col
Ors featured prominently
the rich tones of Italian
and French vermOuth, one a
golden yellow. the other a
vivid brown, accented with a
touch of lime or bitterS.
COlOrs for hits reveal the
hand of the artist, with their
glowing purpleS, fuschiaS and
teal blues. Emerald green's
and violet play an important
part in color trends.
Another hat, distinctly
original, has q cOllapSible
crown of accOrdian type, the
sort that might soar to ex-
treme heights, or If desired,
could be reduced to moderate
proportions. This style is de-
veIOped in felts, suedes and
sometimes in velvet. Plaid
berets and turbans reflect
the new found Scotch influ-
ence and many bOnnetS are
made of fur, felt or fabrics,
all rich in quality.

Printed CottonS
In New Designs

Plaids appear again in the
dirndl, which is the favorlte
silhouette of young and old.
This peasant style, which has
swept the country the last few
years, is particularly suitable for
schoolgirls in cotton plaids, but
of course it is featured in prac-
tically every type of fabric.
They adore printed cotton
dirndls for everyday wear, and
the most attractive "dress-up"
frock that we've seen is a black
Velveteen dirndl trimmed with
white lace.
The newest and most prac-
tical fabric for the sturdy young
tomboys is corduroy which ap'
pears in "trou" and bush
jackets, as well as overalls or
slacks. Most of these outfits
are closed with talon fasteners
which, incidentally, are Gods
gift to tired mothers, saving
them the wear and tear of con-
tinually sewing on buttons.
Even plain old biddy blouSes
have zipper-closed pockets; an
excellent way of keeping the

their "hankies" and the Junk"
that they invariably collect.

Knowledge is Key
To Broad Life

It has been the good fortune
of this column to receive let
tiers from young people, from
time to time, saying that our
suggestions worked. Perhaps
you've grown tired Of hearing
me beg you to take advantage
of Adult Education, when you'd
like to make a little more
money.
Meantime, Mrs. Roosevelt has
some interesting things to say
on the subject. In a recent ar.
ticle she said: IN the face Of
economies which would cut the
teachers salaries and reduce
the teachers staff, the total en-.
rollment in the adult education
class reached 1,568,211, which Is
a few hundred over the number
enrolled last year. To me this
program has always been extra
ordinarily important, because
adult illiteracy tends to mean q
lower standard of living and less
parental control in the home"
It's especially gratifying to
me, in visiting classes in adult
education, to see such a large
enrolment among people not of
their first youth. Dropping into
such a class lately, l was eSpe-
cially impressed by parents who
were laboriouSly learning to read
and write English.
While these people wrote and
spoke the language of their
home countries fluently, they
found that to maintain a re-
spected position in their own
households they must be able to
speak, read and write the Ian
guage of the new country. 1t
was encouraging to see how
thankful they were for this great
advantage which their new
home afforded them.

Protection
Against
Lightning

FVEN in this modem age an
~ age in which women barge
to the front in world affairs,
some women are still timid. And
the thing that skaters nerves
with the speed Of q meteor is
a summer thunderstorm with
its accompanying lightning. A
lot Of women are just plain
afraid Of it.
Well, it may hit you. But it
probably won't. About 500 per-
sons are killed annually in the
entire United States by light
ming. Not bad, if you're not one
Of the five hundred.
The Bureau Of Standards Of
the Department of Commerce
has issued a booklet, Handbook
No. IT," which lists some safe
guards against lightning. It
costs IS cents and gives specific
information on the protection,
not only of yourself, but Of your
home, your cows and your oil
tanks. If any.
Here Are a Few
Safeguards
Here are a few safeguards to
apply to yourself:
Cd Do not go out-of-doors or
remain out during thunder
storms unless it is necessary.
If inside a building, stay away
from fireplaces, stoves and other
metal objects.
(2) II there is any choice OF
shelter, choose in the following
order:
Large metal or metal-frame
building. Dwellings or other
buildings well protected by light
ming rods. Large buildings,
small buildings.
90 If you are caught out
doors during a lightning storm
avoid sheds and shelters If in an
exposed location. Isolated trees,
wire fences, hilltops and wide
open spaces.
a. Seek shelter in a depreS-
sion in the ground, the foot OF
a steep or overhanging Gift, IN
dense woods, or a grove OF trees
we city folk must be sure to
distinguish between a grove"
and one lone tree, it's impor-
tant.

Astor boys, but I succeeded in
getting a job which pays $3.50
a week. And on this I decided
that marriage was q safe risk.
