us that the men Just can't get used

not think of. To quote his letter:
Since the crest was worn on
knights helmet and ladies did not
wear helmets, obviously women
never rightly used crests. 1t is the
shield that depicts the most i'm
portant hereditary emblem"
I acknowledge therefore that my
emphasis on the creSt-without fur
ther explanation-was misleading
and this I sincerely regret.
But the point l must make and
the reason 1 did not print a cor
rection at once is that if the silver
was marked with the crest, or the
crest and motto belonging to her
fathers coat of arms, the only error
according to social usage is that
the tea set was marked for and
given to the bride during her fathers
lifetime instead of being marked for
her father and used by him, and
only inherited by her after his
death.
In almost every family in Europe
which is entitled TO coat of arms
and in that of their descendants
here in the United States, there are
pieces of silver marked with crest
alone or with a crest and motto
that have been inherited from the
ancestor whose coat of arms the
crest Surmounts.
l myself have pieces of silver
that belonged TO several forebears
and which are particularly precious
to me. I would not for anything
have their markings removed in
order to substitute my own initials
or The loZenge to which I am en-
titled. 1t seemed to me not i'm
possible, therefore. that a father
might mark his daughters silver as
he would that which he might buy
for himself. But I do agree that
to one whose knowledge is expert.
a crest of her living father on any
object belonging to and used by a
woman would be very similar to see
ing her wearing her fathers shoes.
CThe crest of her living husband
would. on the other hand, be en-
tirely proper for objects which she
and he use together0
While on this subject, let me add
that crest on the paper of widow
is ineXcuSable because a die being
of small value should be discarded.
Silver, on the other hand, being of
great value. is handed down from
generation to generation, and the
markings-Whatever they are-add
much to their sentimental worth.

But the error maze was one OF
wording rather than of fact.
Several letters have been ex-
changed with experts on this SUBJ
ject which are much too long to
quote. but I think I can give the
facts. as I see them, in the follow
ing excerpts. To the parents this
column said:
Correctly her silver should be
marked only with a lozenge. But
there is no good reason that I can
see, why any one would criticize a
custom that good usage has permit
ted here in America-even though
the College of Heraldry would not.
A lozenge I agree is hideouS-and
new silver from the brides family
marked with her fathers coat of
arms is something that countless
American brides have had and their
families enjoyed So I can't feel it
necessary to say no But l would
suggest that the crest alone be used:
or most, the crest and motto. On
no account, the coat of arms.
please note I did not say the shield
of the coat of armSO"
To have written "on no account
the arms on the shield" would have
meant on no account do what is
right. These arms on a loZenge Gn-
stead of on shield are exactly
what I described as correct in my
opening sentence. When I wrote
"on no account the coat of arms I
did not mean the arms on the
shield. I had in mind the complete
coat of arms: shield, crest, motto.
mantles and all other embellish-
ments. This is what l still believe
the term coat of arms signifies.
And my reason for saying not to use
it was that attention. n-attracting
size and elaboration is, from the
point of view of best social usage,
vulgar.

Cool Jellied
Desserts
Popular
Early Preparation
Is Advantageous
For Housewife
BY Edith VI. Barber

There are several good reasons for
the popularity of jellied desserts,
especially in warm weather. They
can be prepared early in the day
and the morning hours are always
cooler for work in the kitchen Heat
from the stove will be needed for
such a short time that it will not
raise the temperature of the kitchen.
Third and last the delicate chilled
dessert as it comes directly from
refrigerator to table is always re-
freshing. If the meat itself has
been rather heavy. any fruit
favored jelly or one which is a COM
bination of sliced fruits and berries,
coffee or wine jelly may be chosen.
BY the way. it is not necessary to
wet a mold before you pour a GEL
atine mixture into it, The best
way to remove it so that the pudding
will keep its shape is to set the
mold in warm, not hot. water for a
few moments. take it out. wipe it
with a towel and invert the serving
plate over it. Turn these over and
