ton day and the whole summer
through, the little graduate-to-be
seated in the picture chooses dainti-
est of mousseline de sole in de-
lectable shade of pale pink. The
simplicity of its styling adds inf
nitely to its young" charm. 1t is
made ankle length, with the new
square neckline. Of course there
should be frills, for everything is
frilled and frilled this year. The
frilling for this pretty frock extends
across the neckline giving the effect
of yoke.
In the charming gown worn by the
girl graduate standing, the claim of
high-style prestige for cottons is ver-
flied. Here we see most lovely
youthful frock which after gradua-
ton will become her favorite gown
for summer party wear. It is in
teresting to know that the exquisite
organdy that fashions it is in an en-
trancing cool-looking pale green,
with formal wallpaper floral motif
in delicate shadowprint. Note the
brief pique mess jacket which be-
speaks an added triumph for cot
tons worn in formal way. The
importance of pique IN the evening
mode is recognized by leading de-
signers. Some of the smartest party
dresses are made of pique with full
skirts that are topped with cunning
basque bodices that have low-cut
square decolletage and sprightly
short puffed sleeves. Speaking Of
the dress pictured the addition Of
the jacket makes this a very practi-
cal costume. For greater formal
ity, the bodice underneath tunes in
with a fattering deep-cut decol-
letage.

Who Is DiMaggio?

Lou Gehrig was easily the best
known ball player, though some of
the girls wanted to know how Babe
Ruth was hurt and when he would
return to the lineup. Next to Gehrig
came Dizzy Dean with everyone be-
ing able to identity him at least as
a ballplayer, even though they
couldn't tell what position he plays
on his team. A surprisingly large
number of people were unable to
identify Joe DiMaggio.
Those questioned were able to
identity Don Bulge with little diff
ficulty, but most of them failed to
recognize Ellsworth Vines. A few
suggested that Vines was Budge's
manager.
Ralph Guldahl, though he has won
the national open championship for
the past two years, was practically
unknown. Yet all the interviewed
knew Gene SaraZen.

In the realm of exquisite cotton
sheers. Dotted nets are also good
this year, some of the most attrac-

this season being made of point

In the realm of silk weaves the
call for fine sheers is as insistent
as it is among cottons. This years
silk sheers highlight especially the
daintiest of silk organdies, nets also
and as for silk marquisette it is a
first choice.
Along with the thought of crisp
and lovely sheers for the graduates
gown comes up the question of color
versus white. There need never be
a doubt as to white always holding
its own for both graduates and
brides. However, for several sea-
sons there has been a disposition of
brides-to-be to break away from ira
dition and choose a delicate tone or
tint for the wedding dress. As is the
tendency toward color with brides
so is it with prospective graduates
this season, who are selecting in
many instances delectable pastel

regard an efficient refrigerator as
an investment in good health. It
is especially necessary that the
food supply be properly refrigerat-
ed during the warmer weather of
spring and summer, in order to
prevent the consumption of dishes
that may have become contami-
mated without any marked altera-
ton in appearance, taste or odor.
Highly Perishable Foods
Milk is often regarded as the
most perishable of all foods, be-
cause it is an ideal medium for
the growth of bacteria. 1t is, there
fore, essential that this splendid
food be kept at low temperatures
at all times. 1t should be put into
the refrigerator as soon as possi-
bic after it is delivered, and kept
there until the moment it is to be
used. Milk should never be al
lowed to stand at room tempera-
ture for any length of time. For
it has been demonstrated that
when it is held at 40 degrees-an
ideal temperature-before deliv-
cry, then allowed to stand at a
room temperature of rs degrees
for an hour and half, and again
refrigerated, a rapid increase IN
bacteria occurs.
Other types of protein foods also
present a favorable medium for
bacterial growth when they are
held at temperatures higher than
so degrees. These include meat,
fish, meat broths, gelatin, custards
and creamed foods. 1t is advisa-
BILE to keep these foods, as well as
the milk supply, in the coldest
part of the refrigerator.
Fruits and Vegetables
Fruits and vegetables soon lose
their moisture content unless they
are protected against warm, dry
air; and they are likewise subject
to the action of micro-organisms
which result in decay. But when
stored IN a modern refrigerator,
these mineral and vitamin-rich
foods can be kept in perfect condi-
ton for considerable periods, thus
making it possible to take advan-
tage of favorable market offer
ings.
Guarding Against Mold
As rule, warmer weather also
increases the problem of combat
ing molds. For given moisture
and warmth, molds will grow on
almost anything. However, the
most hospitable hosts are acid
/ fruits. such as oranges. lemons.

International
News Review
BY GEORG STRANDVOLD

After a bitter and futile exchange
of diplomatic notes between Great
Britain and France on one side and
Germany on the other, a new major
war began in Europe last Sunday.
1t had been preceded by a series
of swift actions, first of a purely
diplomatic, then of military nature,
for in the early hours of September
1, the German army crossed into
Poland and started bombing Warsaw
and several other cities, several of
them unfortifed, according to the
Poles. A few hours before hostil-
tiles began, Hitler had formulated
what he called peace proposal con-
sisting of sixteen points, the first of
which was to the effect that Danzig
must be Internationally and instant
ly reunited with Germany. Other
proposals had to do with a suggested
plebescite in the Polish Corridor, vot-
ing to be confined to persons who had
lived in the region since before jan
uary l, 1918-when almost everyone
was German!
1t was later announced that Meth
er the Polish nor the British and
French government had received this
note, so it was apparent that it really
had not been intended for official
discussion and comment. And before
the world was aware of its existence,
Hitler had acted in decisive manner.
Danzig Annexed.
The following day-that is, Sep
TENDER /, when hostilities were
opened between Germany and Po-
land-Hitler summoned his parlia-
ment for one of its characteristically
brief sessions and announced to it
that he had annexed Danzig, and that

Duck Hunters Look
For Good Shooting

The Minnesota Arrowhead country
promises to be a "duck hunters
paradise" this season, if reports OF
increased duck population, emanat-
ing from experienced nimrods, can
be accepted as true.
S. Valentine Saxby, executive Sec
rotary of the Minnesota Arrowhead
Association, with headquarters at Du-
luth, said today that he had been
advised from authorities in the far
northern sectors that ducks were
more plentiful this season than for
many years past.
'They attribute this" he said, "to
ideal feeding conditions, particularly
in the lakes north of the Deer River
Grand Rapids and Bemidji regions
where the greatest population OF
ducks exists"
Meanwhile, Mr.. Saxby announced
that numerous Resort members of
the Arrowhead Association were re-
manning open during October and into
November to accommodate the hunt
erS.
'Duck hunters should find excellent
accommodations this season in vir-
tually every locality" said Mr.. Saxby.
81 have been assured that every major
resort intends to keep open several
cabins which can be made comfort
able in the chillieSt of weather."
