 April and May are big party months for youngsters. Times may change but not children. Frosted cake and ice cream remain their favorite desserts.
 Make it a rule to serve one hot dish for children and, if possible, fruit juice before they crash into the sweets. For busy mothers, frost ing has been simplified in the fol- lowing recipes. Each one is color ful and packed with flavor, there fore guaranteed to delight the young hostess and her young guests.

NEW FUMIGATING BAG

If you prefer to de-moth and store your winter clothing at home, there is a new gas-tight garment bag of transparent cellulose film and canned gas to be used in con- junction with it which is said to entirely destroy moths. Simply hang the garments you wish to fumigate in the bag, release the gas and al- low them to remain for "A hours. It is then safe to remove the clothing and store for the summer. The bag will contain about six garments and may be used for storing the clothes as well as fumigating them.

TIPS FOR CHILD'S ROOM

Washable walls, hung with some of the new washable wallpapers, simple painted furniture with bev- eled edges, rugs that are easily laundered and slip-covers and spreads of sturdy, washable fabrics are suitable for young child's room. Choose cheerful colors, sub- dued enough not to be irritating or tiresome. If possible, have an ex- pert arrange the lighting. Avoid un- necessary gadgets or furniture. Be sure that there is plenty of closet space and storage room for toys.

CARE PRESERVES LINoLEUM

When washing linoleum, use warm water and a mild soap. Avoid harsh, abrasive powders or strong washing solutions. Rinse with clear water and wipe dry. Take care not to allow any of the water to seep under the linoleum, or your wood flooring as well as your linoleum may rot. A coating of floor wax well rubbed down, will cause the li- noleum to wear longer. give 1t a soft gloss, and lessen the frequency of necessary washingS.

TIME JEWELRY

Wear jewelry that fits the sea- son. If the circus is in town, wear little elephants, clowns and bears that have been provided for your charm bracelets. When Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs" hit your neighborhood theater, you can clap them on your wrist. Footballs hockey sticks, horses and tennis rackets have been shown for a long time but are still attractive.

If you like to use bluing to whiten clothes, be sure that you add it gradually to the cold, clear water until the solution looks deep and clear in color.

The combined average for IS

ground for the year. Aviations
were paced by Douglas, which
showed an extreme gain of more
than 2 points. This was more
than halved later in the morning.

Meanwhile, after ruling gener-
ally higher at the start, repre-
sentative groups, as steel, rubber.
HloCor, mall order, Oil, rail and

signs.
U. s. Rubber dropped 2 points
before meeting support, but losses
elsewhere were limited to a point
or so. Chrysler, Sears Roebuck,
Montgomery Ward, N. Y. Central,
Southern Pacific, Cerro de Pasco
and Case were among the stocks
to give up a point or more.
Fractional declines were Sut-
fered by U. S. Steel, Bethlehem

MONEY is READY
A main reason for our pro-

industries has been the freezing
of investment money, the refusal
of corporations to invite the public

not obtain a reasonable return
on their savings.
