tured to the right. For this attrac-
tive dress black lace is used with
black crepe. This disarmingly love-
ly afternoon costume would deco
rate any scene to good advantage.
The slim skirt is knife pleated for
added interest. The rather tailored
jacket is nevertheless dressy be-
cause of the mere fact that it is
lace. The long, narrow sleeves are
edged with the black crepe, and the
collar and closing are bound in the
crepe, cardigan style. There are
two large patch pockets.
There's an exquis-. ness about
sheerest of sheer black Chantilly
lace which always carries an aristo-
cratic air born of years of high style
prestige. Chantilly lace will ever
and always continue to give that
wonderful feeling of assurance only
the best can give. Pictured in the
inset is a blouse of patrician black
Chantilly lace such as never fails
to perfectly complement feminine
beauty. A blouse of this type will
prove a most treasured possession.
They carry these black lace charm
ers in almost any important blouse
department or specially shop. If
you know how to sew, the making
of the blouse is simple, and rem
nants of perfectly exquisite lace are
often available at prices to fit low
budgets. When this lace fantasy
is completed, you'll find it price
less possession.
AS to lace accessories, you can
get adorable little calots to wear
back of your pompadour, also an
assortment of lace mantillas, lace
gloves, long or short. The climax
is reached in tiny lace butterflies
mounted to wear as earrings.

Lynn Says:

Save Washing Time: So many
new demands are being made on
your time these days, it is wise to
make the best possible use of
each minute. One way is in how
you use your washing machine.
For instance, long washing is
not necessarily good washing,
and it wastes time. Soap under
goes chemical change after it
has been used a little while, suds
"break down" and the soil is
actually deposited again on the
fabric. Then it is practically i'm
possible to get the articles clean.
Only individual experimental
ton can show how short to keep
the washing of each load, and yet
be thorough. Tests have revealed
one woman taking only half the
time of another to wash practi-
cally identical washing, yet do
ing it better.
Twenty-minute soaking hastens
washing by loosening soil. Then
remove water by wringing the ar
ticles into the first washer full of
sudsy water of the right tempera-
ture.

II EEPING women attractively
~ and suitably apparelled with
minimum yardage and maximum
good taste and ingenuity is the re-
sponsibility which rests with design
ers in these momentous times.
Realizing that the feminine touch"
is a part of every Woman's duty to
her country, those to whom the task
of timely costume design has been
entrusted turn to lace as wonder
fully effective weapon when it comes
to combating the tenseness war
brings on and maintaining a high
morale front. Then, too, lace is
non-priority, which counts greatly in
favor of its use.
That dress-up call which comes to
women after they have spent hours
and hours in war service, as so
many thousands are doing these
days, is being perfectly answered
not only by gowns made of lovely
lace but by the newest gesture, the
suit-dress tailored of lace. See the
"full-dress" jacket dress of black
celanese lace shown to the left in
the above Illustration. You'll be
ready for every occasion with stun
ming twosome like this in your ward
robe collection. One of the nice
things about celanese lace is its fine
sheen and choice silken look.
1t adds swank to this costume that
the jacket is well cut on the longer
lines so smartly in fashion this
season. Self-lace covered buttons
add to the fine finesse of this charm
ing outfit. The sleeves are long and
snug to make them perfect for the
long or short colored gloves which
add dash to black lace. There's al
ways a ladylikeness about long
sleeves. The dress has discreetly
f1ared skirt which fatters the figure.
This ensemble is completely smart
and in good taste for the street, res
taurant or for dancing. The hat
with it's cunning lace frill is mas
terpiece in coquetry as it dips
saucily over the brow and swings
high to the back.
Two romantic fabrics are COM
bined in the charming dress pic

Less Formal Wedding
Dresses Can Be Pretty

The many marriages taking place
at moments notice." so to speak,
because of limited furloughs for
those in service and other circum-
stances of war, are bringing about
a trend to practically in the matter
of simple ceremony. In consequence,
many brides are giving up the idea
of an elaborate wedding gown, pre-
ferring simple frock or suit which
will be wearable for various occa-
sions later.
Summer brides who cling to the
idea of white are looking lovely in
dainty organdies or marquisettes
which can double after the wedding
for party wear. The suit of benga-
line lavished with white, frilly neck
wear and other snowy detail is the
choice of many bride who needs
must do away with formality.

A little candied ginger, finely

Oven pre-heating for short bak-

Strained honey, heated and

Copper flashing around pipes,
