For Golfinq

These are especially attrac-
tive in suede. The brightest
pair are Martha SCOTS in Kelly
green. styled especially for golf
ing. With these Martha wears
gray cashmere dress with green
belt, and green with gray GRO
cheted turban. With this outfit
she can easily be spotted on any
crowded links.
Brenda Marshall has the first
pair of leopard pumps in Holly
wood. These. thinks Brenda,
who stars again in South of
Suez," would be a blessing to
any wardrobe because they may
go anywhere with the most
casual of costumes or tuck
under the most formal after
noon bridge table.
Only one admonition. They
must be the bright spot of a
simple costume. Hers are a
combination of opard with
brown suede the fur in tongues
that pierce well into the toes
and curl high over the instep.
They find an outstanding COM
panion in la pels on Brendas
brown suede cloth suit and no
rivalry anywhere else in a cos
tune that is correctly all in
brown.

Authority on Good Manners

WHEN you are ordering a rug
w or carpet, there is no reason
why you should be influenced
by the so-called rule. that about
a foot of floor should be exposed
around the edges of the room.
II you yearn, as you probably
do, to have the room carpeted
wall-to-wall, but if, for a prac-
teal reason, you have to decide
against this, you may, properly
and artistically. have the rug
made so that it will approximate
the effect of all-over carpeting.
1t is just as correct to have a
f1oor-margin of only 3 or 4
inches. The cost of having this
narrow margin is only slightly

Buy in Pairs

Open your eyes to the wisdom
of buying in pairs-a pair of
chairs for beside a fireplace or
by a sofa, a pair Of matching
end-tables to flank a sofa,
pair of matching lamps on these
end-tables, a pair of bookcases,
a pair of hanging bookshelves,
pair of vases or candlesticks
for the mantelpiece. This use of
furniture and decorative items
in pairs gives balanced quality
to the room-ensemble. OF course
we shouldn't overdo the use of
pairs of items in a room, but
the judicious use of pairs COM
bined with odd pieces makes an
ideal decorative effect.
Moreover. when you choose
the sh a des for side-lights,
choose covering that is as near
as possible the shade of the
wall. Side-light shades should
recede into the wall-color, not
come at you from the wall.
The inexperienced decorator
too seldom considers using
hanging bookshelf, or better. a
pair of hanging bookshelves. So
often these decorative and prac-
teal items will be just the an
swer to the problem Of a diff
cult-to-decorate wallspace.

Meat Casserole

Arrange in a creased casse-
role. alternate layers OF left
over sliced meat, such as chicken
or turkey and slices of dressing.
Pour over this the leftover
gravy and then top the dish
with a generous layer ofreheated
and thoroughly whipped. creamy
mashed potatoes. Make a de-

with cooked peas. Brush top
with melted butter and bake in

Smyrna times., 1941-01-16

The refining of cereals, flour and
sugar is a modern invention and is
not an unmixed blessing. Valuable
minerals and vitamins are lost by
refining. Recent years have seen
some families returning to the use
of dark cereals and whole wheat
bread.
The consumption of refined sugar
in the United States averages
about $50 pounds per person per
wear. Since sugar contributes lit
tie to the healthful value of the
diet, we can hardly afford to give
it so large place.
In these days of changing food
habits people need to be informed
SO they will know which of the new
fashions in food are good and
should be followed and which
should be avoided.

The reason for this is her cousin Maybelle.
Maybelle is Kitty's own age, and the kind of
blonde you just naturally call Blonde"
She grows up with Kitty from the time they
are wheeled around in their baby carriages,
so they have plenty of time to get to dislike
each other. Though Kitty hasn't seen her
for couple of years, she can still get little
warm when she thinks of Maybelle.
This is not like Kitty at all; to understand
it, you've got to know Maybelle. She wants
the spotlight from the time she is a kid -
and gets it. Maybelle gets the biggest slice
of cake - even when it is Kitty's birthday.
When she is fifteen, she steals Kitty's first
boy friend. She is hundred per cent wasp,
but sugar coated like an almond. She is in
California when she hears that Kitty gets
engaged to poor cop and she writes con-
gratulations that are so sugar-sweet with sar-
casm they are practically in the poison-pen
class. Then, to top everything, she grabs her
self off guy named Edgington Edgar. who is
genuine old-fanily stuff in Los Angeles, with
a couple of million in his sock besides. She
writes Kitty to ask her to be bridesmaid,

Well, maybe she could and maybe she
