Those quarter sleeves are so practical and becoming though you can make them short or seven eights in length instead. This frock will be the hit of any young ward robe in brightly -colored wool with perhaps a crepe dickey effect in a harmoniEng color-red with navy blue would be .sinlartl Or make 1t in crepe or cotton fabric without the contrast effect the clever Sew ing Guide will help you with every dresx1naking detail. Whether you're young career girl or 8 campus queen, this is just the sort of casual frock you'll live in all day long!

 e. have received a gift of a smoked turkey. but l do not know how to cook it. Please tell me.
 A. Young, tender smoked tur- keys should be cooked slowly as in roasting ordinary poultry. but first they should be soaked overnight to take out part of the curing salt. Also, because the fat is likely to be strong, it is well to haste the bird with mixture of brown sugar and vinegar, lightly favored with cloves or mustard. After soaking over- night, a young smoked turkey, weighing Q to 10 pounds, unstuffed and ready for baking, takes about AZ hours in an open shallow pan, without adding water, at 25O de- grees F. For even cooking the turkey needs to be turned occa- sionally from side to sled, and part of the time with the breast up. It may be stuffed or not. If stuffed, omit the salt from the dressing be- cause the juice absorbed from the bird will supply enough. Older, smoked turkeys are simmered throughout the cooking in water to cover, as in cooking so-calIed boiled ham. Sliced, smoked turkey breast steaks, whne fried, correspond to slices of fried ham. Leftovers of smoked turkey can be used the same as ham in many tasty recipes.

by the accompanying photographs how the spirit of her own charac- ter-reyealing offstage clothes is TO. captured In the costume for tragic moment of the play.
 At home in suburban New York, Miss Hayes often puts en e sweater and skirt and goes skating down the street with her daughter. She likes to tie something round her head and run.
 WEARING TURBANs IS
 A HAYES SPECIALITY
 There are several Hayes Hats in Candle in tho Wind" And every single one of them Is e turban. Each matches the costume, and each is different in detail. one has Q chou, and another has wing at the fore- head, while 6 third has 6 double halo and curtain falling to the shoul- ders in back. Yet each Is definitely something tied around her headl
 So Helen Hayes clothes advice comes with special force when she says, "study Q thing before you wear it--see If it's you" And she specifies:
 "Hf you're 6 romantic creature, you'll choose soft, dressmaker suits, simple frocks, sculptured lines. Your hats won't be witty
 "Hn dress, as in coiffure, show some Self-appreciation."
 Of course, showing seif.apprecia- ton with benefit Of Valentino Is one thing, as Miss Hayes readily will admit, and doiEg 1t on your own is another. However, in recognizing that she IS person in her own right, any woman takes c big first step toward 6 wardrobe that will make her look, and at times even feel, more like Somebody Special.

CHICAGO, Sept. Despite
profit taking sales which at times re-
duced extreme gains of cents In
soybeans by more than half, the
market rallied sharply at the close
and all soybean contracts finished at
the highest levels quoted on the
Board of Trade since trading in
this future started in 1896.
Strength in soybeans was largely
in sympathy with advances in cot
ton and interpretations placed on
Washington reports indicating an
enormous potential demand for
many agricultural products both at
home and abroad in connection with
the lendlease program.
Wheat and corn which at times
dropped to below the previous clos
ing levels, also rallied with soybeans.
The bread cereal finished with net
gains of more than cent while corn
was around a half cent above the
previous close.
All soybeans contracts closed up
8 cents the permissible limit for a
