treatement which gave depth and
hand" to material. High, clear
color began to appear to point up"
monotone backgrounds.
Dorothy Liebes was a pioneer in
this field for she had been weaving
these fabrics for years for her own
pleasure. She had studied with
Rodier in Paris, had sought inspira-
ton in China, Persia, India and
South America and had learned
from our own Mexican and Indian
weavers. She could interpret any
motif of interior decoration which
was desired. This she has done, as
the textile world we'll knows.
For a small drawing room fur
nlshed in fine French antiques she
wove pale, soft-green cord with fra
glle black lace inserted at intervals.
For a room filled with early Span
ish-American antiques, she created
a robust drapery material of clear
vermilion and lemon yellow stripes
with a Topped fringe woven into
the edge. For a California home,
background for famous collection
OF Chinese porcelains, she made
fabric Of heavy, many-colored silk
cords, flat metal threads, with bands
OF brilliant Chinese Powered rib
bons, as lovely as jewels. This ORA
perry might have come from an
Oriental palace, so truly is it keyed
TO It's background and so exquisitely
is it handled.
Fabrics woven by hand are neces-
sarily very expensive. Machine
made ones may be turned out at
about a third of the cost. This fact
prompted Mrs. Liebes to approach
the textile manufacturers with the
idea of attempting variations in
weave, interesting textures and the
handmade look" Because She was
actually weaver, not merely a
designer, she could show them, on
their own looms, what she meant.
Finally, one of the well-known New
England textile mills set a prece-
dent by turning out successful ma
chine-made replicas Of Mrs. Liebes'
original designs.
Now that most construction is
stopped for 'the Duration" with
new furniture and many of the &C
cessories on the priorities list, COL
orful fabrics remain to make a dull
background interesting. Woven
from non-essential materials, they
are still available and lovelier than
ever.
Decorative fabrics are as beau
tiful as tapestry. They never 70

l.. IT would appreciate advice from
you on how to f1atten the tummy.
I'm to have baby soon and any
advice will be put to use imme-
diately."
AnsWer-Don't exercise after your
baby comes until your physician tells
you that it is all right. This is
usually about six weeks after de-
livery. Here's one of the best: Lie
on your back with your arms over
your head-your legs straight. Bend
both knees up close to your stomach
and grasp the knees with the hands.
Return legs and arms to floor. Con-
tinue.
2. what is the best method of
using lubricating cream on a
round, full face? Should an astrin-
gent or skin freshener be applied
afterwards?"
Answer-When putting a lubri-
eating cream on the face pat on
at first. Then you can continue,
using the fingers. Be careful not to
stretch the skin. For that reason
a rotary motion as you travel up
and out is best. Start at the chin
and with this rotary motion move
toward the ears. Start again at the
corner of the nose and move toward
the ears. Massage gently at corners
of eyes, moving outward and upward
on the. forehead. Unless your SKIN
is very dry use an astringent. If it
Is dry use one of the oilier fresh
eners.

Butter Stretching

How to make q little 20 a long
way is what every one likes to hear
today. Here's a recipe for stretching
a pound Of butter to two: Soften
one envelope Of gelatine in one
quarter cup cold water, placing cup
over hot water until gelatine is thor
oughly dissolved. Cut one pound of
butter into small pieces and place
in a bowl over hot water until but
ter is quite soft, but not melted.
Gradually whip one 14h-ounce can
OF evaporated milk and the dis
solved gelatin into butter with a
Dover egg heater or electric mixer.
After liquids are thoroughly beaten
into butter add salt to taste. II milk
separates, beat until 1t is all mixed
In. Pack into dish and keep
stretched" butter in refrigerator
when not In use. A little yellow veg.
etable coloring may be added II 4

ferred.

have found luck in the number 10.
Richard Wagner's name contained
10 letters, he was born in 1918, and
l plus 8 plus l plus equals 10.
He composed 10 operas; "Tannhau-
SER" one of the greatest, was fin
lshed on September 10, 1860, and
performed for the first time on
March 10, 1861. Wagner left Bey-
reuth on September 10 and died
on February 10. Maybe that last
10 betrayed his faith in the efficacy
of the number.
Edmond Rostand and a famous
Duchess of Sutherland also swore
by the aid Of the number 10. And,
OF course, we have our own first

harbingers Of our great Nation.
So you see, whichever way you
feel about 10, you will be in good

Tots Formative
Years Are From
One to Six
Parents Can Mold
Characteristics
During Period
By Lettuce Lee Street,

The ideals, hopes and pride of our
great Nation, and of any country,
are reflected in the clear eyes of our
Children-innocent minds of our
young.
Every child is, of courses an in
dividual in his own right Some are
positive, STURDY intelligent and ere
alive while others are weak. But
whatever his own inherited char
acteristics may be, his habits, upon
which depend his power of will, are
not yet formed.
He Is plastic, susceptible to en-
vlronment, open to suggestion and
very initiative. Depending upon his
guidance and his home background,
he will develop habits that are USE
full and good or worthless and harm
full.
A child's home is his most con-
slant and determining school; his
parents. and others in his home, are
his most influential teachers.
If only every parent could deeply
realize this and be vibrantly alive to
the fact that the environment they
provide for their young, their knowl-
edge and understanding of child
hood, as we'll as their own behavior,
are the most potent influences upon
their children's destinies-many a
future adult would be happy instead
Of miserable.
During babyhood and young child
hood, small people are almost ex-
clusively swayed by their mothers
and fathers. How their parents
speak, act, treat them and each
other, and what goes on about them
In their homes has powerful eff
feet upon youngsters.
These early years, Familiarity re-
ferred to as "the formative years"
from to are, in fact, the founda-
ton upon which the house of life is
built, towering proudly and beauti-
fully or tottering in shabby Soualor

of two architects, the child's par

the evening was a pouchy purse
covered with coins which was hung
from the belt of one first nighter' 81
black street dress. The purse was
attached to heavy gold chain and
was the only bit of ornamentation
on the costume. Effective it was
too.
More and more questions are
coming into the Office on the subject
OF winter coats. Newcomers to
Washington are inclined to wonder
whether they'd better figure on
something warm and serviceable
or pretty and not quite as utilitarian.
The answer to that, of course, is
in the life each wearer leads. Out

career girls is the Chesterfield coat

quiet rhythm and tempo of the
loom have been proven of immense
therapeutic aid in returning suffers
to normal. Famous Weavers are now
studying hospital technique so that
they can work right along with
nurses to teach this soothing craft
to soldiers and civilians returning
from the war area. In this way the
art which is almost as old as the
world now becomes a vital force in
the rehabilitation of casualties of the
war.
Artists have waited a long time to
be able to prove some of their ideas
to manufacturers. That handmade"
look, so important to all textile low
ers. was to most manufacturers
merely mistake" The variations
in surface which are inevitable and
admirable when each thread is
handled individually, also gives
personality" to hand-woven mater
ials which sets them apart from the
machine made types. The textile
mills called these variations flaws"
and it was their ambition to turn out
materials without blemish. Thus,
for many years. before artists and
manufacturers were able to under
stand each other, there was a great
gulf between the hand-woven and
machine-Woven textile.
With the advent OF modern 1urni-
ture and interiors with their sleek
surfaces of metal, glass and stone,
soft textured fabrics became neces-
sary as a foil for the harsh, shiny
surfaces. Then came a demand for
fabrics with three dimensions, for
knubby weaves, loops, fringes, any

sal bad luck.
The Christian Church, consciously
or unconsciously-in the early days
many Of the pagan rites were worked
into church celebrations to keep the
interest Of the "heathens"-fostered
this attitude toward Friday, by
stressing the fact that the Passion
Of Christ occurred on a Friday, and
by making it day of abstinence
Up to some years ago in England
not 2 per cent of the marriages in
the midland district were celebrated
on a Friday. You probably know
people yourself right here in the
United States who hesitate to start
a new project on a Friday, to move
to new home on a Friday.
Years ago there was a superstition
against launching ships on a Fri
day, or sending one out from port
on a voyage on that day. Indeed
there Is an eerie tale of a ship whose
keel was laid in Wilmington on
a Friday, was fitted out on a Fri
day, named friday, and sent out
under new captain on a Friday.
A week to the day later she foun-
dered, and was lost with all hands.
1t appears that the night after the
keel was laid the wife of the builder
and owner had a terrible dream in
which she saw the ship sink. She
told her husband, and begged him
to start laying the keel anew on
Saturday-but he, like many man
we know, had no use for a woman s
"vapors," and disregarded the warn
ing.
A good story, anyhow.
Now as for the Is part of the
combination. Although many people
say that it was Leonardo da Vinci's
great fresco of the Last Supper,
showing Is at the table, that gave
its unpopularity to the number,
actually superstitions regarding its
potential menace existed long be-
fore. 1t appears in the myths of
the Morse gods as an evil force at
a gathering of the IL major gods
at Valhalla, when Loki, the wicked
one, crashed" the meeting, and
made thirteenth. He quarreled
with Baldur, the Apollo of the Scan
dinavians, and shot him dead with
an arrow of mistletoe. (Quite a
touch, that
Up to a few years ago the dis
like OF the number was so great
that tall Office buildings and hotels
were built without a. thirteenth floor
that is, the numbers skipped from
II to IA for elevator stops and room
designations. Some cities refused
to have streets numbered 10. Houses
in a block skipped 10 in many in
stances. In Paris at one time there
was group whose profession it was
to fill I'M at parties where there
were found to be IS at dinner.
Napoleon and Bismarck both hated
and feared the number.
