The weather. tickle as 1t is these
days, won't help you. You've got to be
prepared to serve hot tea or coffee, or
iced tea and fruit drinks. just as the
temperature indicates. You have to
remember that children may be ac-
companying the visitors. too. If you
have youngsters of your own, that
doesn't make such h difference, but il
not, you'll just have to remember to
keep tin Of tomato juice. a bottle or
so OF some soft drink, and some simple
crackers on hand to stay the inner
man Of the juvenile sight-seer.
For the grown-ups. an emergency
shelf well stocked with tins OF little
sausages, tiny beaten biscuits wrapped
in cellophane. jars of shrimps. sealed
packages Of potato chips. tin Of sweet
crackers. some plain crackers and an
assortment Of spreads will do as a
backlog. But besides these, there
should be few "specialties de la mai
son" on tap. just to give an added
glow to the warmth OF hospitality.
FIRST and foremost among these,
to accompany the tea or fruit
drink being served. is cinnamon toast.
1t is placed at the top of the list
because it is so easily prepared, and
does not require supply of materials
that may spoil. Buy the mixed sugar
and cinnamon that comes In conven-
lent packages. with perforated tops,
and make your cinnamon toast this
way:
CINNAMON TOAST.
Cut the crust from a loaf of not
too fresh bread Cut the slices in
half-inch sticks or fingers Dip these
in melted butter. Roll them in the
mixed cinnamon and sugar until thor
oughly coated. Place the strips in a
hot oven for about eight minutes. or
toast them carefully on all four sides.

Hairdressers have realized this fact
themselves and a group of them have
banded together to promote the best

woman. They study her good points
her needs and limitations, and devise
happy ways of overcoming her diff

Jealous of her attentions to his
wife.
Police reported today that Chas.

Mrs. Kruger on Hollywood Bou-

home. Mcdonald said Mrs. Krue-
ger had great influence over his
wife and told her she wanted her
to amount to something. They be-
gan going out together. Mrs.
Kruger opened a bank account
for her. Everything in our life
was Mrs. Kruger. We even had

did. | had to shoot this woman"
Mcdonald was quoted as saying.
Mcdonald broke down after an
hours questioning and admitted
that he shot Mrs. Kruger three
times, then drove away in large,
black sedan, according to police.
Mcdonald changed his story,
police said, after his attorney,
whom he had consulted before ne
surrendered, turned over to police
an automatic pistol from which
four bullets had been fired. Nc
Donald's estranged wife still works
for the Kruger family.
After receiving two blood trans
fuSiOns, Mrs. Kruger rallied. She
told police "Chuck (McDonald)
was an insanely jealous man.
"He was trouble maker all the
time. I was kind to his wife de-
spite this and | let her live with
us as maid and a companion to
me, over the objections of Mr..
Kruger" the wounded woman
said.
The McDonalds have been sepa-
rated for several months, recently
making a court appearance in con-
nection with Mrs. McDonald's di-
vorce suit. She was granted Gus
tody of their 23-months-old daugh-
ter, Ehita, named after Mrs. krue-
ger, and $40 support, pending
trial of the divorce action.
According to his attorney, Nc
Donald was contesting his wlte'S
suit. He filed a cross-complalntt'
in which he accused her of friend
illness with another woman and
blamed that for breaking up their
home. They had been married
three years. Mrs. Mcdonald for
mcrlv lived in Omaha, Neb.
Mcdonald, since his separation,
has been living with his sister,

porters she was the personal make
