Earlv Armor Heavv Loah

When knighthood was in flower,
a warrior was CARRIED from head to
foot with the best steel. It was so
heavy the wearer had to be lifted
onto his horse. And if he ever fell,
he couldn't get up without assist
ance. That kind Of armor was the
finest the world has ever seen. Be-
fore it, in primitive days, man
tossed wolfskin or bearskin across
his shoulders to turn swords. The
Greeks and Romans used leather
and bronze. Steel armor became
the fashion only when weapons were
made of steel.

Various Ways to Fix
Green Peppers.

GREEN peppers as members of the
fraternity of green things that
help supply our vitamins are espe-
cially good sources OF the elusive
vitamin c, as we'll as vitamins A and
B. So plan your winter menus to
include generous use of the crisp
green pod while in season.
Green peppers combine well with
ripe olives in many entrees which
may be substituted for meat in
luncheon or dinner menus Stuffed
peppers are commonly used and the
casserole entrees which combine sweet
peppers. ripe olives, chopped or sliced,
with rice, noodles or spaghetti are
Favorable and simple to prepare.
Moisten these casserole combinations
with vegetable or mushroom soup sea-
son to taste and bake in a moderate
oven (375 degrees F. for IS or 80
minutes. Add, if you wish, grated
cheese, hard-cooked eggs or left over
meats.
Serve sliced sweet peppers in COM
bination salads with wedges of ripe
olives cut from the pit. or use lightly
parboiled pepper cases for such inter-
esting flavor combinations as cubed
fresh tomatoes, ripe olive wedges,
sliced green onions and radishes.

be awakened from it as gently and
insidiously as sleep-walker is reused

methods have to be adapted to fit the
individual, for there is no universal
way of breaking of a match that
applies to all cases. .
There is no use, for instance. in
wasting your breath trying to con-
vince adolescent boys and girls that
calf love isn't the real thing. They
are absolutely certain that no one
ever loved before as they love and
that they can't survive until they are
doddering old people of 20 to marry.
But railroad ticket, or being sent off
to college, or the advent of a new boy
or girl, will nearly always turn the

But it's the one time when noncha-
lance is your only salvation. Without

that clothes don't bother you in the

member how cute you look and how
much more becoming your little after
noon frock is on you than that lace
affair on the horselike dame across
the way. And don't. for heavens

you would have looked in your evening
dress. That's fatal.

really time to consider your velvets,
woods, heavy crepes, and all the other
cold weather ensembles that you will
be needing very shortly.
This same ornate influence that
We have been screaming about lately
is prevalent in the winter clothes
Lots of gold trimming, heavy cameo
lockets brightly colored sequins, metal
i lie threads woven into gowns, and
flowers, pins, clips, and bright sashes
are all features of the new clothes.
Jewelry, especially. plays a big part
in the fashions this season. and any
{ number of the street and evening
gowns have huge lockets on heavy
chains.
Black, of course, is still the favorite
In spite of the use of more color than
in past years. But you will note when
you next go shopping that there is
very little solid black. In almost every
case there is a spot of color or a bright
accent to relieve the monotony.
SURPRISINGLY enough, there seems
- to have. been a reverse procedure
in the past year-maybe it's the Corri-
gan influence-which causes us to
see more and more woolens used for
very dressy clothes, and velvets and
velveteens for street and sports wear.
OF course, it works the other way,
too, but 1t is strange to note the num-
Der of woolen afternoon frocks that
are being featured-and very smart,
they are. We saw some in local
shop the other day that were really
outstanding-one in black with a wool
jacket over dress of the same material
with tucked satin top. Gold zippers
adorn the front of the bodice and the
pockets of the jacket. Many dresses
in this material have velvet touches
others have lavish jewelry or hugh
buttons, and the ma jority have match
ing or contrasting jackets. Woolen
dresses are so popular for afternoon
wear that many have been duplicated
In the softer crepe fabrics.
Crepe for street dresses, however,
Is still a favorite. There are lovely
styles-with the same luxurious
touches. Noticeable this season is
the use of pleats, and We saw count
less dresses with whole pleated skirts
the real accordion kind Another
popular type is the lumberjack dress
which features tiny jacket with a
shirred waist band-just like the
actual jackets, but made in the same
material as the dress and often with
a quilted effect. Another is in soft
crepe with pleated skirt and sports
one of the loveliest necklaces we've
seen in many day.
IN THE more formal clothes, the
same theme still holds true. Eve
ming gowns are lovely and practically
all reminiscent of the Empire period
but there are great many WITH
OUT hoopskirts. The ones with hoops
are equipped so that the device is easily
removable-but can't you just see
us dashing into the powder room to
