OF an OLD, valuable VOlume Cn0C IL
got tucked away on my library
shelves among some priced first
editions-and was so completely
camouflaged in such surroundings
that I couldn't find 1t for several
days!
This charming work is 1.-THE
Williamsburg Art Of Cookery, or
Accomplished Gentlewoman's Com
panion," published by Colonial Will
liamsburg. Inc, one of the organi-
cations formed by Mr.. John D.
Rockefeller, jr., to have charge of
the restoration Of the historic Vir-
ginia city.
The book contains recipes collected
and edited by Mrs. Helen Bullock of
the Restoration Research Depart
ment, and includes directions for
making some fascinating dishes.
The majority Of the old recipes have
been modified and tested to meet
present-day requirements, but a few
OF the really old ones are included Just
"as is," for the sole purpose of anus
ing the reader. Some OF these have
delightful and almost forgotten
names, such as "Salmagundi," OK
ford john" AN Egg as Big as
Twenty" Hens Nest" etc.
In addition to the 500 recipes for
soups and sauces, flesh and fish,
garden stuff, breads, pastry, pre-
serving, confectionery, cakes, pud-
dings, wines and punches, the book
contains a table Of favorite Will
hamsburg herbs, history of Vir-
ginia hospitality, an account OF
Christmas customs in Virginia, with
traditional recipes, and various
other items Of interest to those
who love to dwell upon customs and
menus Of the past.
The leather binding and formal
OF the book, as we'll as the type
used, are all reminiscent of the
earliest American cookbook, printed
by William Parks 1877 years ago in
Williamsburg, making the volume
as suited to the library as 1t is
to the kitchen.

The romantics gowns will be ex-
tremely simple, falling In sculptured

ture and color.
They will be Influenced by medi-

Medieval robes, Venetian portrait

slashed sleeves all suit her style to
perfection.
She will permit no rufiles or tucks
or fussy detail to distract the eye
from the enjoyment of the fabric
itself.
She will exercise restraint in the
matter Of jewelry, wearing no orna-
ment but one or two pieces in the
renaissance manner-great stones
set In hand-wrought metal.
For afternoon, her best influence
is Van Dyck, who was so fond of sill
houetting white lace collars against
dark velvet.
Her millinery may be feudal

In the daytime, too, she should be

artists adore: Titan red "a brown

ly golden), Benda's green gold, Mo-
nets blue violet, and so on.
Her first choice Is velvet, chiffon
and satin are favorites, too, because
they drape so well.
She loves heathery tweeds for
the country. She wears prints rarely
because they detract from the lines
Of her costume and because she is

she seldom finds one to her taste.
When she does, 1t is invariably

This very simple design is just
magically able to give you the slim,
softly curved, round d-bosomed sill
houette that everybody covets this
spring. The skirt, cut to a high
waistline, molds the figure at waist
and hips, then ripples into circular
fullness. The bodice is gathered,
the sleeves puffed. And to its per-
fection of line, the dress adds a
frivol of frills at neck and sleeves
to meet the vogue for white accents.

Mrs. Hugo Black Studies
Work of Supreme Court

on the verge Of preparing for such
a career. and each time something
has happened to direct her inter-
ests toward another goal.
The first time was just about the
beginning of the war. AS Tennessee
born Josephine Foster, resident OF
Birmingham, Ala, and fresh from
Sweet Briar Academy, she arrived
in New York City to study writing
at Columbia University. But her
country was at war, and, in about
a month, she decided to join up with
the Navy yeomanettes.
When the war was over and Miss
Foster returned to her Alabama
home, she found that another war
veteran had moved in next door-a
bachelor by the name of Hugo Black.
Romance and marriage entered her
life and took the place of dreams
about short stories.
Opportunity Reappears.
After the Blacks came to Wash
ington for the head of the house to
take his seat in the United States
Senate, Mrs. Black saw her oppor-
tunity appearing once more. She
enrolled in a course in advanced
writing at the American University.
A year later, her youngest child,
Josephine, was born, and once more
other interests turned her away
from short stories.
Finally, when the way seemed to
be opening again, her husband was
appointed to the Supreme Court,
and Mrs. Black felt that it was her
responsibility to learn something
about the new field into which he
had entered-hence, the constitu-
tional history.
But some day am going to write
short stories-and maybe personal
essays, too," she confided wistfully.
Mrs. Black finds one advantage
for her children in their being in
judicial instead of a senatorial home.
although we miss Alabama very
much, it is better for the children
not to have to be moving back and
forth between the State and Wash
ington, as must be done when you
are connected with Congress-" she
said. 1T makes many of their
school and social adjustments so
difficult when you are trying to live
in two places at the same time"
War Most Disturbing Issue.
Besides 6-year-old Josephine,
there is Hugo, jr., 16, and Sterling,
IA, who are in Western High School.
If either boy turns out to be a law
yer, his mother will be very much
pleased"
There was one final question. If
she had the power, from what stu
alton in the world would she like to
shield her children?
II think that, to any mother with
boys the age of mine. war is the
most disturbing ISSUE" Mrs. Black
said earnestly. "It Is inconceivable
that those of us who lived through
the last war should ever let it come
again"

By PAULINE FREDERICK.

A husband on the Supreme Court
means, among other things, hours of
legal study for Mrs. Hugo L. Black.
For, not content to accept only the
social prestige that goes with being
an official hostess, the comely wife
of Mr.. Justice Black takes her in
tellectual responsibilities seriously,
too.
Ever since the former Senator
from Alabama assumed his place on
the court, Mrs. Black has been
studying constitutional history un-
der the expert guidance of Miss
Eleanor Bontecue, former dean Of
Bryn Mawr.
Il don't want to be an expert on
the Constitution" she modestly pro-
tests. II just want to be able to
follow more closely the work of the
Supreme Court.
And don't think it's too easy for
me-" she confides with little laugh.
"When ones natural interest Is in
the arts, trying to train ones mind
in channels of law is difficult"
In Natural Setting.
Seated behind a silver laden tea
table in the drawing room of her
home near Alexandria, cerise gown
for later dinner engagement the
perfect foil for prematurely white
hair and fair coloring, Mrs. Black
seemed to be in her natural setting.
But not the way she pours tea
rather, the way she pores over legal
tones, is giving her the keenest
satisfaction right now.
1--WE reached the cases Of Chief
Justice Taneys time" she said.
"And I've just finished reading Bev-
eridge's Life of John Marshal and
started Warren's History of the
Supreme Court" There was a
touch of justifiable pride in her
voice.
mo, my husband doesn't help me
with my homework" she laughed in
answer to question.
Although denying that she is able
as yet even to approach the point
of talking over present-day cases
with Mr.. Black, she is acquiring
quite a legal vocabulary. And it
isn't fantastic to imagine that, when
she and her husband are returning
from their early morning golf, there
are some pretty technical discussions
of the Justices work ahead in which
Mrs. Black creditably holds up her
end of the conversation.
Wants to Write Stories.
But, if all goes as she is now plan
ming, Mrs Black intends to balance
up her present intellectual pursuits
in the fall. When she and her
family move back to their Wesley
Heights home. she will probably take
some art appreciation courses at
the American University.
Even so, there still will be an i'm
portant unfulfilled ambition in Mrs
Blacks life. She wants to write
short stories-and always has-short
stories dealing with psychological
problems. Four times she has beer
